Millennium director

Chapter 290 "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" movie viewing craze, Danfei becomes famous!

"Daniel, please think about it again and don't make such a hasty decision."

"We at Warner are very sincere."

"A salary of ten million US dollars, plus 5% of the global box office share, is the price of the top director."

Fedor Oliver still refused to give up and made a condition to Wu Yuan, trying to use this condition to seduce him.

Directors are not like actors. Top actors can get 20 million US dollars + 15% of the global box office share, but top directors can only get half.

But this half is quite a lot. If a movie’s global box office can exceed 500 million US dollars, then 5% of the box office share is 25 million US dollars. Plus the fixed salary, one movie will earn 35 million US dollars, which is more than 25 million US dollars. billion yuan.

This is really not a small amount of money. Even if Wu Yuan owns an independent film company, it is impossible for him to look down on this money.

However, Wu Yuan remained unmoved, just looked at him indifferently and shook his head firmly.

If it's "Man of Steel", he feels that he can still save it and maybe create the best Superman movie in the new century.

Forget about "Green Lantern", this movie is fundamentally wrong. If you want to correct it or even turn it into a miracle, it will take a lot of energy, and the ultimate box office risk will be very high.

Wu Yuan has now established his reputation in the field of commercial films, and there is no need to risk his reputation on the success of this film.

On the other hand, "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" is in full swing in North America.

As the world's largest box office for this series, North American fans are the most enthusiastic in supporting this movie.

All 4,362 movie theaters across North America are fully booked for screenings of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3".

Countless young movie fans flocked in, waving banknotes to buy movie tickets for the movie.

"Are there no more ones at 5pm?"

"What about seven o'clock in the evening?"

"No more?"

"There are still tickets available after ten o'clock in the evening, right?"

"Damn it! It's 12 o'clock, let's get two!"

Jack, who lives in the suburbs of Houston, took two movie tickets from the conductor with some irritation, squeezed out of the crowd, took out his newly purchased iPhone, and called his girlfriend in distress.

"Elise, I'm so sorry. All daytime tickets are sold out today. I only bought two tickets for the midnight show."

"Oh! Honey, I definitely didn't mean it. The movie tickets for "Pirates of Gallibee 3" are really in demand."

"You know, this is Daniel's last time directing Pirates of the Caribbean, and no one wants to miss this finale."

"Don't worry, I will definitely send you home safely after watching the movie."

"Yes, I'm not that kind of person."

"OK! I will pick you up on time, bye, honey!"

He was worried before the call, but after the call, there was only a smile on his face.

A man next to him who had bought a ticket and was about to queue up to watch the movie stared at Jack with envy in his eyes, then looked at his girlfriend in his arms, and sighed inwardly.

They were watching the show at three in the afternoon, and they just went to have dinner after watching it. How could they use an excuse to keep their girlfriend here instead of sending her back?

This guy was able to get tickets to the midnight show, which was amazing.

The girlfriend beside him seemed to notice his expression and reached out to pinch his arm: "What, are you envious?"

"NO!" He shook his head quickly: "It's too dangerous to watch the midnight show. The show ends too late and it's not safe at all."

Contrary to what many people think, although the midnight screening of movies was indeed the earliest in North America, midnight premieres were also the first in North America.

But now, theaters and movie fans in North America are no longer willing to watch midnight movies.

The reason is simple. In a country where guns are not allowed and robberies are always rampant, it is too dangerous to wander outside at two or three in the morning.

In terms of safety, the United States really cannot compare with China.

Of course, this can also be seen from the side. In order to be clear, these two American men still dare to take risks.

Two blocks away, in front of another movie theater.

Liszt held a movie ticket in his hand and walked into the No. 2 screening room full of expectations.

"After waiting for so long, it's finally released." He murmured to himself, with excitement and excitement on his face. He quickly found his seat and sat on it.

Lister is an avid fan of the Pirates of the Caribbean series and has been madly in love with the series since the first one was released.

The charming Captain Jack Sparrow, the beautiful Elizabeth Swann, and the shining character Will Turner all made him fall in love with him.

Of course, Wu Yuan, who created this film series and created the story of this series himself, is also one of Liszt's favorite directors.

Well, forgive most ordinary movie fans, they really don't pay attention to who the screenwriter of a movie is, they only pay attention to the actors and directors.

In the eyes of most ordinary people, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series was achieved jointly by Wu Yuan and the actors.

Even though Wu Yuan was actually a tool director in the first and second films, he hardly participated in many script decisions.

"I heard that this movie is the final film of the series?"

"After the third film, except for Captain Jack, no other characters will appear in subsequent sequels?"

"So is this Elizabeth and Will's final Caribbean adventure?"

Listening to other fans' discussions about the movie, Lister frowned.

In order to prevent spoilers, after the news of the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" came out, he deliberately did not pay attention to any post-premiere discussions, because he was afraid that the story would be spoiled by others before he saw the feature film.

It was just a precaution, but I never expected that when the movie was about to be screened, some spoilers would be revealed.

It can only be said that there are really very few movie fans like him who firmly refuse to read the premiere reviews and premiere audience feedback.

With an anxious heart, Liszt subconsciously swayed his buttocks, and after waiting for another seven or eight minutes, he finally waited until the movie started to show.

The two-and-a-half-hour feature film has not a single peeing spot in the whole process, from going to Singapore to find Sao Feng and getting the route map to the end of the world, to going to the end of the world to rescue Jack, and returning to Singapore with Jack to hold a pirate conference and confront the British navy. Internal fighting leads to the Pirate King of the Seven Seas and the Poseidon...

One plot after another can always make Liszt feel excited when he just breathes a sigh of relief.

There were constant quarrels, conflicts, fights, and frequent Royal Navy sneak attacks.

A large-scale naval battle, Weier fights with various pirates and the navy's personal cold weapons, a huge whale made with special effects...

All kinds of visual impact made Liszt extremely satisfied.

His expectations were absolutely right, this is a perfect commercial fantasy blockbuster!

Until the end of the story, the naval battle between the super-large pirates VS the Royal Navy, which brings together the pirates of the seven seas, is a visual feast. The fantasy naval battle in the Age of Discovery under the violent storm, lightning and thunder is simply too cool.

At a time when Marvel superhero movies have yet to hit their stride, and Avatar's Pandora planet has yet to appear, the special effects naval battle in "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" is currently the pinnacle of special effects scenes, enough to make any audience want to watch it after watching it. Hugely hooked.

It wasn't until the end of the film, when Will succeeded the captain of the Flying Dutchman, and made a vow to see Elizabeth once every ten years, that Liszt sighed melancholy when they embraced each other on the beach.

The story of Elizabeth and Will ends here.

Even in future sequels, they may return again, but they will definitely not be the starring roles anymore. They will appear more as gimmicks or introductions to lead to new adventures.

Lister, who has watched countless Hollywood blockbusters, knows these commercial movie routines very well.

Although I don’t know the phrase “my youth is over”.

But Liszt, who has been watching Pirates of the Caribbean 1 since high school and has now graduated from college, still slumped in his seat and sighed melancholy when the scrolling subtitles appeared on the big screen.

At this time, the sound of discussion rang in my ears.

"It's over."

"yes."

"A fairly perfect ending."

"Maybe there will be a sequel in the future. After all, didn't the ending lead to another clue to the Fountain of Youth?"

"But it will be a new story, a new adventure for Captain Jack Sparrow."

"Will is just enslaved by the Flying Dutchman?"

"Captain Jack will definitely save him, right?"

Liszt smiled silently, stood up and walked out of the theater low-key.

It was evening at this time, and the orange-red sunset was slowly setting on the horizon.

Looking at the beautiful scenery on the horizon, Liszt took out his mobile phone, connected to the 3G network, and edited a blog post on his main Facebook page.

"I just finished watching "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", and Daniel Wu did not disappoint me, once again bringing a fantasy masterpiece."

"Depp's performance in the movie is still so perfect, and the British rose is still so beautiful."

"The most surprising thing is the appearance of Crystal Liu. I didn't expect that such a singer who sings sweet songs can be so cool in fighting scenes. She is simply the best fighting actress I have ever seen!"

"All in all, this is a perfect finale to the series and I highly recommend everyone to watch it!"

At the end of the blog post, he also used Facebook's newly launched topic function and selected the topic of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3".

Soon, his blog post appeared in the topic square.

As long as you are a netizen on Facebook, you can see the most popular topics when you click on the search bar.

And "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" is the number one hot topic in real time!

Fans from all walks of life who have watched this movie are discussing everything about this movie enthusiastically in the topic square.

The performances of Depp, Keira, and Orlando in the movie have all been brought up and talked about.

Of course, Liu Yifei, who took on most of the close-quarters fighting scenes in this movie, is also the focus of discussion among movie fans!

In the first two movies, the action scenes were basically pirate melees without any aesthetics at all.

But Wei'er played by Liu Yifei in the third film is different. Her fighting scenes in the movie are picturesque, and she fully embodies the temperament of a Chinese swordsman!

Lao Mei really likes Chinese Kung Fu!

Liu Yifei, who has just made a splash in North America with her song "Call Me Maybe", before her "sweet girl" impression can be deeply impressed on people's hearts, her image of a swordsman has become popular in North America again!

"Come!"

"Hollywood needs actresses who are so cool!"

"Let Crystal play more martial arts roles of this style!"

I fell asleep early yesterday morning.

Let's take some beautiful photos to cheer you up.

The update will be postponed for another day.
