Chapter 509 A New Era of Aesthetics
Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!
Don't know anything else, David Ellison is very clear. If you talk to Universal Pictures under the name of Matthew, you will basically be done. Will Universal Pictures easily let go of a series that can be sold out for six or seven consecutive films?
He stayed at Horner Manor until almost noon before leaving, returned to Sky Dance Pictures' office in Century City, and immediately mobilized his professionals to investigate the situation of Universal Pictures, "Fast and Furious", Paul Walker, Vin Diesel and others, and even specifically asked someone to verify what happened to Vin Diesel and Matthew on the crew of "Fast and Furious".
Although he believes that following Matthew will have much less risk and pressure on investment, he will not just make decisions casually for such a huge project decision.
David Ellison needs to make some preliminary considerations first, and then talk about other things.
In Horner Manor, after David Ellison left, Matthew called Helen Herman and told him about the relevant situation. He wanted Helen Herman to launch her relationship with Angel agency and inquire within Universal Pictures. Buying the copyright of this series is the first choice. If it really doesn't work, then cooperate with Universal Pictures.
Helen Herman didn't understand it very much, so he agreed.
Matthew's idea of this series was just a small factor, but more importantly, he knew that this series was very profitable.
Later, I filmed many n consecutive movies, and all of them planned to drive the car to the sky. If I didn't make any money, I would have been cut off long ago.
If I can win, I might be able to really go racing in the sky in the future...
He then made a phone call with Amanda. Amanda specially sent someone to send a mobile hard drive full of filming teams hired by the charity foundation, refugees received rescue supplies and interview videos taken in several war-torn countries and regions in Africa.
In addition, there are also some interviews with UN officials, peacekeeping soldiers and UNHCR High Commissioner Gutierrez.
After Matthew read it, he received it from the safe. Amanda not only gave him one, but Helen Herman also had one.
Helen Hermann will consult with the crew of "The Three Hundred Warriors" and Warner Bros. to determine when these videos will be released so that the film will have a better publicity effect.
Matthew didn't have to worry too much about these things. He put away his mobile hard drive and watched the reputation of "The Three Hundred Warriors of Spartans" online.
On the Internet, the average score of the imdb of this film dropped from 9.7 points on the night of the premiere to 8.6 points. Matthew was not surprised. After all, there were only a few hundred people rated it at that time, and now there are tens of thousands of people rated it.
What was unexpected was that the freshness of the rotten tomatoes was not only marked as rotten, but the freshness was only 52% after just one day of release, and the average score of the critics was 5.1 points.
The critics don't like this video too much.
It is estimated that like the films he starred in the past, the reputation of the critics of "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" will be reversed from the box office.
Matthew has experienced a lot and got used to it. Anyway, the goal of "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" is not awards season.
After acting in so many movies, I have been praised and criticized by countless people, and gradually I don’t care much.
As long as the box office is big and the commercial appeal remains unabated, film critics are willing to give bad reviews, so they can do it.
So, he looked at the bad reviews on Rotten Tomatoes with low scores.
The main thing that this film is criticized is Zach Schneider's show of skills and the male protagonist's body show off, but these are the main selling points of "The Three Hundred Warriors of Spartan".
As for the lack of humanistic ideas and disrespect for history in the negative reviews, Matthew was too lazy to watch. Is this a problem in Hollywood movies?
He looked around the Internet for a while and suddenly found that there was an amazing number of views on "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta".
The blog post seems to be written by an ordinary movie fan.
"Yesterday, I was waiting for a meeting in the company. The boss encountered a traffic jam when he was out. When he was waiting for him to come back, he looked through several newspapers and magazines while idle. He found that there was a video that was criticized in many film critics' columns. After the meeting, I searched online and saw the opposite situation. The movie fans praised this film called "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" at the intersection."
"This strange phenomenon has aroused the curiosity of me, who doesn't go to the theater often. I bought a ticket this morning and went to the theater."
"This may be the movie that has used the most underwear and big chest muscles in history. When I think of the critics' comments on this movie full of vulgar physical flaunts and uncontrollable bloody scenes, I actually admired it in my heart after watching this: After all, I am a film critic, professional! I didn't want to watch it, but someone would get your fire with just one word."
"The body? Still showing off? This won't work, this must be investigated in depth!"
"There are still bloody scenes, and they are uncontrollable? It's too cruel. If I don't go to hell, who will go to hell!"
"It's just like that. With a heart that shows how fleshy and bloody he is, I entered the theater and watched the 300-pants male model in the underwear that lasted for nearly two hours, fighting the Persian Golden Chain Underwear Emperor. There must be many people like me, because this film became the North American box office champion on the first day of its release."
"After watching this movie, I think that although male models of underwear don't even wear clothes when they go to the battlefield, it's really nonsense to expose their flesh to others, this movie is actually not bad at all! To put it vulgarly, every male and human appearing in the entire movie is at least six feet, a bright face and a shiny tendon flesh. When paired with the uncovered new season of metal-inlaid leather shorts, even the traitor-ugly hunchback of the villain, the traitor-ugly monster, is muscular, and the style of the underwear is unambiguous..."
"When we were watching TV series on public stations online, we occasionally changed clothes and took a shower in more than ten episodes of the season. We couldn't even see the screenshots clearly. We showed you two hours! There were still three hundred! They were all wearing briefs!"
"What do you think about this?"
"To put it in style, the aesthetics of this film is very vulgar. The picture is very strong and grand, with the tones like oil paintings, creating a new era of aesthetics of war dramas. Every frame of the hero's battle scene is filled with Michelangelo's style power and flesh. Coupled with the Persian emperor's golden chain and gold underwear, this film looks really epic."
"No matter how nonsense the demonization of Persians, no matter how ignoring history, the Spartans' war armor was stripped away only underwear sponsorship, no matter how uncontrollable the plasma was sprayed, bravery, loyalty, unity, defending the country, and the strong 'brother love' thing would never be outdated."
"I was brave but outnumbered. The tragic heroes died in battle made me cry. The male models died together in the end. The scene was extremely shocking. This was definitely not a bad movie in my heart."
Seeing the end, Matthew couldn't help but nodded slightly. Movies are not just a single word, nor are they film critics saying that bad movies are bad movies, nor are some people saying that good movies are good movies.
Watching a movie is actually a very subjective feeling.
The most typical one is the recognized genius Quentin Tarantino. Fans who like his style think his films are classic, while those who don't like them think that he makes super bad movies.
Just talk about himself, when he was on the other side of the Pacific, the Marvel Superhero Series had just come out and thought it was very good. Later, he watched more superhero movies with serious homogeneity. Not only did he lose interest, but he became a little disgusted.
Even the Oscars cannot represent the vast majority of people. There are still quite a few people in North America who believe that Spielberg's "Schindler's List" is a super bad movie that talks nonsense.
Hollywood movies are essentially no different from other products. Some people like them, and some people don’t like them.
People who like it can say they like it, and people who don’t like it can also say they don’t like it. Matthew cannot stop others from expressing his own opinions, so he has never responded to negative reviews from film critics in a positive way.
Since he did it, he dared to let others say it. If he dared to do it but didn't dare to let someone say it, then what was that? He couldn't make a name for himself in Hollywood.
Those who criticize him can criticize him as much as possible, and he can pretend to be invisible.
Of course, criticism and attack and abuse are two different things.
Turning off the computer, Matthew went to read the newspaper again. "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" occupied the entertainment version, and the Spartans who occupied the United States fought for a lot of social news pages.
These Spartan warriors with red cloaks and red trousers have appeared frequently in the past week.
He was the one who came up with this bad idea. Once when discussing the video with David Ellison and Zach Schneider, he suddenly remembered something. A store of an unscrupulous merchant opened and hired a large group of Spartan warriors to conspire to occupy the imperial capital, which attracted many citizens to watch and had an extremely bad impact on the surrounding order.
When the persuasion was ineffective, the police uncles decisively took coercive measures. How could the so-called "Spartan warriors" be the opponent of modern police? They were quickly taken away by uniforms. Later, many pictures spread across the Internet.
In Matthew's words at the time, these Spartans were not picking for the place to die.
Warner Brothers also participated in this publicity. They all completed the normal procedures in advance, otherwise the Spartan warriors would definitely not be the opponent of the police who could draw their guns and shoot at random.
Most people who exercise regularly have an out-of-popular hormone. If they do something with the police, it is not a promotional video, but instead it has become a negative news.
Although Matthew is at home, news keeps coming from Bella Anderson that everything is going well in "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta" and there is currently no competitive opponent in the North American film market.
