The Best Entertainment Era

As an honest and good man, Ronan swore to the sky that when he was a child, he had already regarded making a Transformers movie as a lifelong dream, but realizing his dream also requires like-minded partners , that is his partner Michael Bay.

This is not afraid of media reporters digging deep, because everyone has had wild thoughts when they were young.

Besides, Ronan's reputation is at the top level in Hollywood.

Reputation is of course a comparison. There are too many people in Hollywood like Harvey Weinstein who don’t talk about credibility, so people like Ronan and Spielberg stand out.

Ronan felt that there was no problem in comparing himself with Spielberg in this respect.

The director who became Ronan's good partner also has a guaranteed reputation. Michael Bay also changed himself and became a fan of Transformers.

When the reporter asked, Michael Bay said without hesitation: Transformers is one of my favorite toys and animation works when I was a teenager. When I was invited by Ronan, my whole body trembled with excitement! But I also know, It is really difficult to put this series on the big screen, so I always remind myself that I like everything you pursue, no matter how difficult the process is, because in order to turn my dream into Realistically, you could spend a lot of dull, boring time.

The press conference was very successful, and the news that Transformers project was established and the crew was established quickly spread throughout the circle and spread to the whole world.

The crew of Transformers also opened an official account on Netflix, and hundreds of thousands of people followed it on the day of opening.

These are just the beginning. With the filming and production of the film, various related promotional activities will continue to advance.

Hasbro is also making a publicity and promotion plan for Transformers for the sake of toy sales.

The popularity of Transformers is because it itself is Hasbro's flagship product series and has created a series of toy sales miracles. Although it is slightly outdated now, even Brian Goldner believes that it still has great potential for development .

However, Brian Goldner has some doubts about Ronan's choice of Michael Bay as director.

Michael Bay's 'Escape From Clone Island' Failed Miserably.

In the office of Relativity Entertainment, Brian Goldner expressed his doubts to Ronan: This film has been forced to be released by the North American theater chain, and the North American box office is only a little over 30 million U.S. dollars, and its What about the investment? It is said that the production plus publicity is as high as nearly 200 million U.S. dollars?

Ronan nodded slightly: Almost, Spielberg called to stop the promotion of this film on the first day of its premiere. The stop loss was timely, and the total investment should not be 200 million U.S. dollars.

Brian Goldner said: Michael Bay's last film failed miserably. Is it inappropriate to continue directing the Transformers series?

Ronan said: Escape from Clone Island is not a reflection of Michael Bay's true level, and the film is not a typical Michael Bay style.

Because the two parties have a cooperative relationship on Transformers, Ronan said patiently: In my opinion, apart from James Cameron, no one is more suitable to be the director of this film than Michael Bay, because he For this type of story, it is very emotional,

He can rub fictional characters into reality and give them real humanity. In his hands, whether it is an Autobot or a Decepticon, it will be displayed in an extremely violent collision.

Brian Goldner thought about Michael Bay's movies, and it's not without reason.

Of course, it is impossible for Ronan to say that the choice of Michael Bay was influenced by the past, but there are really many reasons for Michael Bay to convince people: Michael Bay has had a very pleasant cooperation with the Ministry of Defense in many films. It is one of the directors with the best relationship between Hollywood and the Pentagon. We will use a lot of equipment and personnel from the military for this film, and with Michael Bay, the work in this area will be smoother.

He stated an undeniable fact: If we can't borrow military bases and equipment, we will use special effects to produce, and the production budget will increase by at least another 30 million US dollars. It’s not that it can’t be shot, but the effect will definitely not be particularly ideal.”

Brian Goldner thought about it carefully, and said, I see. He spread his hands: Ronan, you are an expert in filmmaking.

As Ronan said, Michael Bay is the best choice after a combination of many aspects.

In addition, Spielberg also discussed the large-scale commercial project of Transformers with Ronan.

At the premiere of War of the Worlds, Spielberg took time out to sound out what Ronan meant.

Relativity Entertainment has recently launched multiple large-scale production projects at the same time. Will there be pressure on funds? Spielberg seems to be thinking for Ronan: If necessary, DreamWorks still has funds to support Transformers .”

Ronan understood the meaning of this, and said, I don't need it for now, Relativity Entertainment can still handle it. Steven, if there is a need, I will contact you as soon as possible.

Spielberg is not without regrets: Two years ago, Tom DeSanto, the producer of DreamWorks, recommended the Transformers series to me. The copyright has already been taken by you.

Ronan smiled and said, I'm a fan of Transformers, so I paid attention earlier.

Spielberg did not give up easily: DreamWorks is very sincere in cooperation.

Ronan would not give up this series of benefits easily, and said euphemistically: Steven, if Relativity Entertainment really can't bear the pressure, I will definitely ask DreamWorks for help.

Although DreamWorks and Relativity Entertainment belong to the unified alliance front, it is not possible for Ronan to sell such a large expected income.

Spielberg wanted to say something else, but Tom Cruise suddenly walked over with a little girl.

Ronan, let me introduce you to a friend. Tom Cruise interrupted Spielberg and introduced to Ronan with a smile: This is Dakota Fanning, who plays my daughter in the film. .”

The blond girl looked very cute with two ponytails.

Probably starred in many movies in Hollywood, Dakota Fanning is not afraid of strangers at all, but took the initiative to shake hands with Ronan, and said very politely: Hi, Mr. Anderson, it's an honor to meet you.

Ronan smiled and said, Hi. I've seen your movie. You're a genius.

Thank you. Dakota Fanning said like a little adult: Can I tell my mother, have you seen my movie?

Ronan shrugged, Of course.

Spielberg glanced at Tom Cruise, asked Dakota Fanning, and took her to leave here.

I just saw that you and Steven seemed to have a dispute? Tom Cruise asked.

Ronan said calmly: A little question about the film project, just Transformers.

Tom Cruise asked with a smile: It seems that my timing is good?

Ronan nodded: Very suitable. He turned to ask: Dakota Fanning just now, how did you perform in the filming?

It's not bad. Tom Cruise said directly: She can quickly and orderly understand the script, and she can play the role with ease. The performance is very real.

He added: That's what Spielberg said.

Ronan asked, Compared to Kirsten Dunst in Interview with the Vampire?

Tom Cruise thought for a while and said, Everyone has their own strengths. Although they are all child actors, they are not the same type.

Ronan said casually: I have a project here, and I need a cute girl actor. Dakota Fanning may be suitable.

Tom Cruise said: Just talk to her mother. They have expressed more than once that the future of the Fanning sisters is in Hollywood. Oh, yes, Dakota Fanning has a younger sister who is also a child star. .”

Ronan has the impression that her name seems to be Elle Fanning, who was once famous for not having ankles.

In my memory, it seems that my sister was not as good as my sister when I was young, but when I grow up, my sister is even better.

Having said that, Dakota Fanning is so cute now that she can be included in the ranks of long-term disability when she grows up.

The copyright of King of Kick-Ass has long been taken by Robert Lee, and the role of Super Killer must be played by a child star.

Ronan hadn't seen any news about the former Chloe Moretz. If she couldn't find it, Dakota Fanning might also be a suitable candidate.

However, it is actually quite difficult to persuade parents with a strong sense of responsibility to let their daughters act in this type of film.

In my impression, the parents of the Fanning sisters are considered to be the most responsible type among child actors.

Ronan chatted with Tom Cruise about Dakota Fanning's acting skills, and soon entered the theater, and the premiere of War of the Worlds began, and he could also see Dakota Fanning in person Performance.

Frankly speaking, Dakota Fanning is really good at acting, giving people a feeling of spirituality.

It's a pity that most of the child stars who were outstanding when they were young are very mediocre when they grow up.

For example, Macaulay Culkin and Hayley Joe Osment, especially the latter, their acting skills in The Sixth Sense are really impressive and even unforgettable.

War of the Worlds is not very good. Among Spielberg's many films, it can only be regarded as a fairly mediocre one, but Spielberg and Tom Cruise have a huge appeal. The atmosphere can be described as bursting.

But the film is somewhat disappointing, feeling that the ending is too fast and too hasty.

Someone once said that in this movie, the hero took two children and faced a group of psychopaths, and somehow won.
