Previously at the premiere of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", Andrew Stanton once said that this was a super project with a budget of more than $200 million. After receiving the script, Matthew attached great importance to it. He called and turned down his date with Alexandra Dadario in the evening. He returned to Horner Manor and planned to take a good look at Andrew Stanton's script.

After making a cup of tea, sitting in front of the computer in the study, Matthew logged into his private encrypted email, found the email from Andrew Stanton, and downloaded the attached document to the computer.

He picked up the teacup, took a sip, and then clicked on the document.

The first page of the document is the title. Unlike Edgar Rice Burroughs' original famous "Princess Mars", there are three names on this page.

It is obvious that Andrew Stanton does not intend to use the original name of Princess Mars.

The three names are "John Carter on Mars", "The Battle of Mars" and "Alien Battlefield".

When Matthew saw the first page, he stopped. The names "John Carter on Mars" and "The Battle of Mars" are common, and are also typical Hollywood movie naming methods such as "Star Wars".

But why does the name "Alien Battlefield" look so familiar?

Matthew stared at the computer screen and quickly confirmed that this sense of familiarity did not come from Hollywood today, but had seen this name!

Suddenly, he remembered a somewhat familiar plot of the original work...

Did you think it was a bit bad before? I was a little familiar with the plot. It was not because "Princess Mars" was similar to a primary yy at a certain point, but because he had seen similar movies?

With this idea, Matthew felt more and more familiar with the name "Alien Battlefield". It seemed that a pirated movie he had downloaded on the Internet was called this business card.

Thinking of this, Matthew quickly moved his mouse and clicked to read the content of the script. Andrew Stanton had said before that he would adapt the original work significantly. Maybe he could recall more content when he saw the plot setting of the script.

Many forgotten memories can be recalled after being touched.

Unlike the ten lines he saw when he read "Cloud Map" before, he read Andrew Stanton's script very seriously.

This is not only because of the investment, but also related to the director himself. The Wachowski's style is too deliberate to pursue depth and philosophical thinking. He thought about it and found that these were horrible. In my memory, except for the "Matrix" series, other films of Wachowski's are basically frustrating.

He doesn't remember much about Andrew Stanton, but Andrew Stanton's resume from joining Pixar Studios to his current life is brilliant enough.

The first film directed by Andrew Stanton was the famous "Finding Nemo", and was nominated for the Oscar for Best Original Screenplay, and eventually won the Best Animation Feature Little Golden Man. In addition, he has also served as the screenwriter and executive producer of "Toy Story", "Beast Crisis", "Toy Story 2" and "Monster Electric Power Company".

Although live-action movies have not been involved, Andrew Stanton clearly understands what types will be popular in the film market.

With this idea in mind, Matthew spent most of the night reading Andrew Stanton's script extremely seriously.

Perhaps he was really stimulated by the plot of the script, he remembered something and found that his thoughts about Andrew Stanton were not necessarily correct.

"A master of animation film..." He left the screen, leaned on a swivel chair, and said to himself, "It may not be a good live-action film director."

Like most adapted movies, this script has a great adaptation of the original work, and the plot of Andrew Stanton adapted into the script seems to be more familiar than the original work!

The script tells the story of John Carter, a traumatized former officer, accidentally traveling to Mars during the American Civil War. Due to different gravity, the earth is big and Mars is small. John Carter becomes a "superman" with infinite power and jumping like a flying one. Therefore, he is involved in the conflict between several local ethnic groups and deals with the beautiful princess, heroic allies and cunning enemies.

Many of the plots mention that John Carter can jump on Mars like Superman, jumping like a frog...

"Alien Battlefield" jumps on alien planets like a frog, and becomes a savior by jumping on frogs. She also takes on beautiful princesses, including a group of mysterious aliens who are mysterious and mysterious. At the end, they pretend to be dead and kill them with one shot...

The more you watch these, the more familiar Matthew feels. There is a movie that I deleted directly after watching it once, and gradually I have some impression in my mind.

Isn’t this project that Andrew Stanton wants to advance just a movie that makes people vomit blood?

In order to make sure that it was correct, Matthew read the script again. The more he read it, the more he grasped it, and even remembered the name "Alien Battlefield".

In the Internet era in the smartphone era, many browser apps would push articles based on content they often read. At that time, they often read information related to movies in order to find new movies to download from the Internet. Some public accounts always like to package and push some movies with similar conditions.

For example, the most exciting war movies, the best horror movies and the most funny comedy movies.

There is another type, which appears very frequently on the movie official account, the most losing movie list in the world.

He can't remember it very clearly. It's probably this kind of name. "Alien Battlefield" and "Cleopatra" starring Elizabeth Taylor, "Cut-throat Island" that led to the bankruptcy of Carloch Pictures, Kevin Costner's Waterloo "Future Water World" and Warner Bros. "Batman and Robin" are the most frequently appearing film names.

If all he remembers is correct, "Alien Battlefield" is definitely an epic super flop.

Matthew suddenly thought of what Andrew Stanton said: The production budget for this project will be more than 200 million US dollars...

If the movie with such an investment scale is super awesome, let alone him, even Tom Cruise will vomit blood, right? For celebrities with insufficient confidence and capital, they can directly destroy the star path.

He closed the document and quickly made a decision to turn down Andrew Stanton's invitation. Helen Herman also said that the reason why Andrew Stanton invited him was, on the one hand, the military action-type male protagonist is suitable for him, and on the other hand, it is to attract investment.

Pull investment? Thinking of this, Matthew patted his legs.

I have been looking for a sinkhole, isn't this just one? The production budget is more than 200 million US dollars, and Andrew Stanton needs funds, and the protagonist is also very suitable for that handsome guy Pitt...

Thinking of this, his head quickly turned, how could he connect Andrew Stanton and Brad Pitt? And it would be best if the two were directly connected before the release of "Cloud Map".

Although Plan B has not announced the release date, according to Hollywood's consistent production model and the shooting and post-production speed of Wachowski's siblings in the past, "Cloud Map" requires about a year of preliminary preparation, more than a year of shooting, post-production and promotion and marketing, and can be released in the summer season of 29 years as soon as possible. However, this film is very complicated and may not be released until 21 years.

Matthew turned off the computer and put the study into an absolutely quiet state. He even turned off the lights and sat in the dark and thought quietly.

Half an hour later, his thinking became clear. It was not a must-do, but he could try it. If Brad Pitt didn't get into the trap, he wouldn't be able to directly reach out and push Pitt in it, so the time and energy he put into it should be controlled reasonably.

Just like the last time, he didn't have direct contact with Pitt, he just dug a hole. Whether Pitt enters or not depends on himself.

Matthew stood up and walked out of the study. He had a rough plan in his mind, but he couldn't be anxious. After all, there was no more specific news on Andrew Stanton.

He would keep in touch with Andrew Stanton and look for the right opportunity.

As for how the message is delivered to Brad Pitt, we need to think about it carefully.

After leaving the study and returning to the bedroom, Matthew called Alexandra Dadario. Alexandra Dadario was not asleep yet, and the two chatted over the phone for ten minutes.

Then, he couldn't bear it, and went downstairs to drive away from Warner Manor and headed straight for the Ivy House north of Burbank.

Compared to falling asleep alone, he was more willing to fight against the huge waves. Even though the two waves were as majestic as mountains and surging like hurricanes, they could not suppress his conquering heart.

When facing the waves, he will stand with his spear and use his skillful skills to crack the huge waves that can suffocate.

Memorial Day passed by Matthew's battle to penetrate mountains with his spear. The next morning, he personally drove Alexandra Dadario to Warner Studios, and got the latest box office news for Pirates of the Caribbean 3: The End of the World.

On Monday just past, the film still maintained an extremely high attendance and schedule rate. After winning a box office of more than 20,000 US dollars, the North American box office totaled 16.37 million US dollars, continuing to move towards a big sale.

On the other hand, overseas box office statistics have also come out. "Pirates of the Caribbean 3: The End of the World" has been released simultaneously in 73 markets around the world. In just one week, the global box office reached 379 million US dollars.

In the next two weeks, the video will appear in more overseas markets.

However, due to many factors such as passing the review, "Pirates of the Caribbean 3: The End of the World" was released on the other side of the Pacific Ocean about three weeks later than North America.

After sending Alexandra Dadario to Warner Studios, Matthew rushed to David Ellison's Sky Dance Films, and there will be an interview today to confirm the director of the "Fast and Furious" series.
Chapter completed!
