Chapter 110 Blockbuster era(2/2)

He also used the excuse of giving gifts to deceive himself.

Hum hum.

However, a smart woman will definitely not expose these things.

Then I won’t expose it.

Simon didn't know what Janet was thinking. Looking at the coquettish look of the woman in his arms, although he instinctively felt that Janet was having some small thoughts in this state, he also did not ask further questions and nodded: "It's Pixar.

If possible, we will buy it then and make a 3D animated version of "The Lion King."

"The Lion King" once had a global box office of more than 900 million U.S. dollars, and it maintained its position as the top-grossing animated film for more than ten years before being surpassed by "Toy Story 3" and "Frozen."

Now.

Unless you are willing to give up the script, it is unlikely that you will get Disney's original team to 'contract' "The Lion King" for you. What Michael Eisner said at the time was right. Outside of Disney, Simon wanted to find

Another excellent 2D animated film team is basically impossible.

then.

These days, Simon gradually came up with another bold idea.

Produce a 3D animated version of "The Lion King".

Although based on Simon's understanding of current 3D animation technology, it is not easy to achieve the smooth effect of 2D animation, but Simon is not in a hurry. At worst, it will take a few more years.

Technical problems are not a problem as long as they can be solved.

Many excellent animated films later proved that Pixar definitely has enough technical strength to solve this problem.

As for whether the future 3D version of "The Lion King" can still achieve the box office miracle it once was, Simon is not too worried.

Movies are the riskiest business in the world.

But at the same time.

Movies are the purest business in the world. As long as the quality of a movie is good enough, audiences will be willing to buy tickets and enter the cinema.

therefore.

Whether it's 2D or 3D, "The Lion King" is "The Lion King."

Even if Simon perfectly copies the original 2D version of "The Lion King", there are still too many variables in whether it can achieve the previous box office results. In comparison, the 3D version of "The Lion King" can actually add more to the film.

Some selling points.

After chatting about "The Lion King" for a while, Simon and Janet left the study.

Janet ran to change clothes and wash up, and Simon went downstairs to start preparing breakfast.

At about 8:30, the two left the Palisades mansion, Simon rushed to Daenerys Film Headquarters in Santa Monica, and Janet's destination was her studio in Venice Beach.

The two suddenly reunited a month after they broke up, which inevitably caused the paparazzi to chase them again.

However, as they were used to this state, neither of them was too affected.

It's already mid-May.

The next day, the movie "Isda" produced by Columbia Pictures was officially released to 1,139 screens, heralding the official arrival of the 1987 summer season.

"Isda" stars Warren Beatty, Dustin Hoffman and French actress Isabelle Adjani and cost $55 million. Simon saw the budget size of the film in the newspaper and was heartbroken.

Only emotion remains.

Half of the top ten movies at the North American box office last year had production costs of less than US$10 million.

Now.

It seems that suddenly, Hollywood has entered the blockbuster era.

Catherine's first theatrical feature film "Night of the Blood Corpse", which Simon just watched yesterday, is also scheduled to be released on June 19th. Although Simon is the 'director's assistant' as a gimmick, after barely squeezing into the summer schedule, Germany

Laurentiis Entertainment only secured 500 opening screens for this movie.

In this regard, Simon also raised doubts with Martha Schumacher, president of De Laurentiis Entertainment, yesterday.

Simon doesn't mind if Catherine's movie uses his name to promote it. However, it is obviously better to postpone the movie to August or September. The competition in the less popular slots is not fierce, and he can get at least 1,000 yuan.

The opening screen above.

Martha Schumacher told Simon that "Night of the Dead" should be the last movie released by De Laurentiis Entertainment Group before it went bankrupt, and they couldn't wait a few more months.

In this regard, Simon can only be helpless.
