The Best Entertainment Era

Compared to Paris Hilton's side, Uwe Ball's side seemed very quiet. Ronan saw that the publicity effect was very good, and he didn't intend to use Uwe Ball's trump card.

No matter what, House of the Dead will never become a popular movie. The publicity about Paris Hilton, in any case, cannot compare with the national influence of The Blair Witch. spread within the range.

The most important thing is that the word-of-mouth of this film is really bad, with bad reviews all over the sky.

The Globe and Mail said: Uwe Ball's movie is so boring that it seems to give us a blow in the head.

New York Daily News comment: The House of the Dead proves that German director Uwe Bauer's forte is to make terrible movies.

The film critics are also merciless, and all kinds of bad reviews almost fly into the sky.

Watching The House of the Dead is a terrifying shock exercise.

You're not going to see a worse movie in theaters this year than House of the Dead.

Why do bad movies like House of the Dead appear in theaters? It is worth reflecting on.

Only two days after its release, Rotten Tomatoes collected 59 films about House of the Dead, with a freshness rate of... 3%.

The freshness is finally not zero eggs.

In addition, film critics scored an average of 1.9 points.

All of these break records on Rotten Tomatoes for a wide-ranging movie.

On IMDB, more than 2,000 users have rated it, and the average score of House of Death is 2.6 points.

Authoritative media comprehensive evaluation MetaCritic included 35 media scores, with an average score of 12 points.

From the audience to the film critics to the media, House of the Dead is all rotten.

But this did not prevent House of the Dead from being a commercial success.

On the first day of its release on Friday, the film earned US$6.78 million in North America; on Saturday, despite the bad word-of-mouth spreading everywhere, stimulated by Paris Hilton and Eric, the single-day box office Instead of falling, it rose, and another $7.29 million was collected, which shocked countless eyeballs.

What's even more amazing is how many people are calling the movie bad while watching it, and some people want to see how bad Paris Hilton's debut film really is after the negative word of mouth has spread widely.

I enjoyed watching it. After watching it during the day on Friday, I bought a ticket to watch it again on Saturday night. I haven't watched such an interesting bad movie for a long time.

Even, there are many people who like this bad movie.

I heard that this movie is bad, so I went to watch it, don't say, there is really no one who is really bad!

There are also many fans of this kind.

The House of the Dead is a lighthearted offbeat comedy.

And fans who can spot the highlights of The House of the Dead.

Actually, the bad film has nothing to do with Paris. She really worked hard. It's not Paris' fault that the director is bad.

These young people who were attracted by the Paris-Hilton persona and Bai Fumei's identity became Paris-Hilton's supporters one by one, but they didn't know that after the Paris-Hilton persona collapsed,

How would they feel.

In the first week of filming, House of the Dead met Ronan's expected box office explosion, surpassing Crocodile Dundee 3 which opened in the same period and BJ's Diary, which entered the second week of screening, with a box office of 18.85 million US dollars , airborne North American box office champion.

The box office of the latter two is around tens of millions of dollars, which is quite a gap with House of the Dead.

A super bad movie with no star, no plot, and no director level, once again sold well in the North American film market, causing shock in the media and Hollywood circles.

Some well-known film critics were so angry that they published a column saying: The current audience has really fallen! No level of appreciation at all!

David Lynch, the director of Mulholland Drive, which hit the box office last year, said in an interview: The huge sales of House of the Dead can only show that the audience is not good this time.

Bad movies are sold, but good movies are ignored, which makes many insiders and outside critics feel that Hollywood and movie audiences are getting more and more depraved.

Uwe Ball also stood up at this time, probably due to the success of the film, and did not confront the film critics. Instead, he reiterated in an interview that the next step is to adapt Kojima Studio's Metal Gear and Blizzard. The company's Warcraft.

Because Uwe Ball mentioned plans to adapt these games at the premiere, the relevant persons in charge of the two companies went to the theater to watch House of the Dead and were directly frightened by Uwe Ball's adaptation .

The companies then responded publicly.

Hideo Kojima said in a blog: Absolutely not! I don't know why Uwe Ball would talk about this kind of thing. We will never talk to him, and we will never let him make this game into a movie.

Blizzard Chief Operating Officer Paul Samus hastily jumped out to retort: ​​We will not sell the movie rights of Warcraft, especially to Uwe Ball! A bad movie will ruin this. An excellent game and its company!

The game movie Terminator has shown its edge.

Your office is a bit shabby.

At Sandsea Entertainment, Tom Cruise, who came to visit, looked at Ronan's office and said, It should be redecorated.

Ronan handed him a cup of coffee and said, Let's do this for now, and we'll change places later.

Tom Cruise took the coffee, put it aside, and said, That's right.

Ronan never thought about redecorating at all. The scale of Shahai Entertainment is steadily expanding in a planned way. The office space here is not enough. At most one or two years, he needs to consider changing the office location.

Or, rent the entire floor of the building.

Ronan also considered that a relativity building might be needed in the future, just like DreamWorks and the Big Six.

Tom Cruise slowly walked to the poster of House of the Dead hanging on the wall, looked at the slightly rough zombie faces on it, and said, I went to see this movie last night. Ronan, I really don't like Knowing what to say is good, such a movie, you can also make it a blockbuster.

The North American box office of more than 18 million US dollars in the first weekend is indeed not much, but compared to the production cost, what is this if it is not a blockbuster?

It's actually very risky. Ronan said: Once the response is not good, all the investment will be in vain.

Tom Cruise shook his head: You guy... He said directly: The biggest investment is to persuade Paris Hilton to cooperate with you in publicity, right? The actual publicity investment is not 3 million US dollars, right?

Ronan smiled: Not really.

The real cost of the film was distribution, with nearly $5 million spent on copies.

Tom Cruise sighed: You are too good at running movies. You should really let your Embassy Pictures release Minority Report. The chances of success will be higher.

Ronan said, Spielberg wouldn't agree.

That's true. Tom Cruise was a little helpless: Spielberg, who was forging ahead in the past, has gradually become old and stubborn.

Ronan didn't want to get entangled in this issue. Spielberg refused to cooperate with the embassy film industry. With his current ability and strength, he couldn't force it at all. Instead, he asked, When will the filming start?

Tom Cruise replied: The shooting will start in June, and it will be released next year.

It's really slow. Ronan felt that it was too ink-stained.

Tom Cruise was also a little dissatisfied: If I had known it would take so long, I would not have signed with DreamWorks. He further said: Spielberg planned a Running. Man trilogy, Artificial Intelligence It’s the first, this Minority Report is the second, and he’s getting someone to adapt a fraudster’s script, and it’s said that it could be the third.”

Ronan roughly guessed that this third part should be A Game of Cat and Mouse.

By the way, many people now call you a film master. Tom Cruise said suddenly.

Me? Ronan was quite surprised, and said, I'm not a director, and I can't make movies.

Tom Cruise explained: They say that there are many people in Hollywood who can make good movies, but those who can turn bad movies into hits are the real masters.

Ronan couldn't help but shook his head with a smile: I can't afford the title of master.

Frankly speaking, compared to a pure film practitioner, he is actually a film businessman.

Tom Cruise chatted with Ronan here for half the morning, and soon left. After Ronan had lunch, Uwe Ball, who had just recorded a program on ABC TV, also came over.

Ronan, are we going to start a new film project? Uwe Ball cut to the chase.

Yes. Ronan didn't shirk it. The success of House of Death made Uwe Ball form a unique super bad style, and there is still a possibility of success if he invests again. So, he said, Uwe, or a video game?

Uwe Ball deserves to be the Terminator of game movies, and replied: Well, I think I am most suitable for game adaptation movies.

Ronan thought for a while and said, Well, Uwe. Go find a new game suitable for film adaptation, find a suitable project, and let's discuss it together, how about it.

Okay. Uwe Ball looked in a good mood.

Thinking of the promotional methods that may be used for future cooperation, Ronan told Uwe Ball: Film critics have said a lot of unpleasant things recently, don't take it to heart, they are like this, just pretend they can't see it.

Unexpectedly, Uwe Ball was in a very good mood and said: I will not take them seriously. Our movie is a big success, what does this mean? Film critics are talking nonsense. They don't know anything about movies. , they should go home and fuck their mother!

Ronan can only say that Uwe Ball really came from his heart, so reckless!

This time, the film was successful, and Uwe Ball didn't care about the cynicism of the film critics. Who knows what will happen next time?

How do you say something? Reckless is just one word, don't be cowardly, just do it.

Ronan still has great expectations for Uwe Ball.

This reckless director can also realize the value of life as long as he is properly packaged.
