"Didn't I say that there are too many niche works in Dark Horse Comics, and it's enough to make it into an American drama, and there is no need to acquire it!"

By the way, I added: "Two years ago, Freman and the others also said they wanted to make a fairy tale adaptation of a live-action movie. What was the result?"

The Disney fairy tale blockbuster "Fantasy Forest" in the spring has achieved amazing results, with a painting of over 100 million in the first week, and finally more than 600 million in North America and up to 9.6 billion in the world.

I thought this was a good start for a fairy tale adaptation, which had a very rich theme. Unexpectedly, all four live-action fairy tale movies in the summer season were coldly accepted by the market.

The highest-grossing movies in the summer season is Warner's "Return of Mount Tarzan: The Jungle". Although David Yets of the "Harry Potter" series is director, the film not only has a bad reputation, but also has more than $50 million in the North American box office.

After three consecutive defeats in "Giant Catcher Jack", "Peter Pan" and "Return of Mount Tarzan", Warner may be lost on the road of changing the road to children.

Disney, which has a lot of fairy tale IPs, has three fairy tale blockbusters released during the summer season, namely "Alice in Wonderland 2", "The Dream of the Giant" and "Peter's Dragon" with a classic animation. The first two films with higher investment performances are worse than "Tarzan", and will eventually cause major losses to Disney and DreamWorks headquarters. "Peter's Dragon" has only barely crossed the cost line...

After this battle, companies' attitudes towards such topics may become colder.

"The tastes in the market are changing rapidly, so we insist on horror action movies..."

"I mean many works of Dark Horse Comics are similar to Lions Gate in terms of positioning!"

“…adult orientation?”

"right!"

If you think about it carefully, it's really like this...

Even D has vertigo, a sub-brand founded for heavier comics, which are often more bloody, more thrilling, or more nude than the comics in D. They include "The Sandman", "V-word Vendetto", "I Am a Zombie", "History of Violence", "Heart of Hell", etc.

Representative works of Dark Horse Comics: "Hellboy", "City of Sin", "Witch Blade"…

Maybe the next trend is adult comic adaptations!

After thinking about it, Zhang Junsheng asked, "How much does they offer?"

“…600 million US dollars!”

"Yo, the price has been reduced?"

Wan Ziren explained: "…Marvel has been too strong in recent years, and the box office of "Hellboy" has not been very good..."

"It can be acquired, but it needs to be sealed for a few years..."

"I know."

...

In fact, there have been few film libraries in Tingfeng.

Even though the Lion Gate acquired the copyright of thousands of movies, those are works with obvious characteristics of the times, such as "Assassination of Kennedy", "Assassination", "Assassination" and so on...

Many people say that the era of action movies is over!

The 1990s was the best era of action movies, just like the current "comic-adapted" movies...

Yet, when special effects and g technology have not been able to change the times, the "explosion era" supported by hardcore action movies is definitely the hottest box office explosive in the box office market, and its status is higher than that of later special effects blockbusters!

But who made the peak entrance too late...

I failed to get the gold mine of Marvel.

Fortunately, the "Success Squad", "Hurricane Rescue", "Resident Evil" series, including "Ace Agent", has also established a trump card...

The producer of "The Expendables" is Lions Gate. The Pinfeng acquired the Lions Gate. The investors of "The Expendables" naturally became the Pinfeng - of course, there were a lot of negotiations.

In recent years, the projects that have really made money have been a lot of youth-oriented movies, "Twilight", "The Hunger Games", "The Divergent"...

The most unexpected thing is the "Fifty Degrees" series.

From "Fifty Shades of Gray" to "Fifty Shades of Black" to "Fifty Shades of Fly"…

"Fifty Shades of Gray" is 5.7 billion US dollars worldwide;

By the third film "Fifty Degrees" in North America, 100 million US dollars worldwide, 6.8 billion US dollars...

Both reputation and box office declined...

There is no way, and it is impossible to fight the real army. No matter how much the plot is written, it is difficult to come up with new ideas...

The Americans are quite conservative...

The greatest contribution of the "Fifty Degrees" series is to split the spirits of the people all over the world.

While everyone was angry and angrily criticizing the vulgarity, they secretly watched, and their postures were wide open, and their eyes widened...

At most, only two points are revealed...

However, the box office performance of this series is still the best among R-rated movies at present. Since the single film cost is only 50 million, it is likely to be the most profitable R-rated movie ever.

Thinking about whether to start another series...

But the focus is still on the original large production.

Superhero movies inevitably experience aesthetic fatigue, which is a good thing for the peak!

Maybe the next trend is the adult trend of comic modifications...

...

In August, Yuehua Corporation.

Zhang Junsheng was having a meeting.

"The Wandering Earth" has been released for 40 days, with a cumulative box office of 42.2 billion yuan. The single-day box office has long dropped to about 1 million yuan, and the number of screenings is pitifully small...

"The Confidential Pet" follows "The Wandering Earth"...

I always have to give other mainland movies some breathing time...

The producer of "The Secret of Pets" is Lighting Entertainment and Yuehua Animation, which participates in the production...

In recent years, the animation works produced by Lighting Entertainment have basically been produced by Yuehua Animation. Nothing else, it is cheap and durable!

Yuehua Animation’s top anime production studio has an annual salary of only 800,000 yuan, which is less than 200,000 yuan in US dollars…

This is also the main reason why Lighting Entertainment can always insist on controlling costs!

Last year, led by three top Chinese animation works, "The Return of the Great Sage", "Kung Fu Panda", "My Master Jiang Ziya 2", as well as animation works such as "Despicable", "Miniu Man Big Eyes", the total box office of anime movies reached 8.9 billion, and the box office results of anime movies reached 16% of the total box office!

Anime movies have ushered in their best development stage!

Yuehua releases at least five self-developed animation works to the market every year, as well as one or two cooperatively produced animation movies...

"The Pets Secret" is in good momentum and may win a box office of 500 million...

In fact, "Full-band Blocking Interference" has been completed and will be scheduled to celebrate the New Year.

"Now the audience is very disgusted with young and fresh meats. What is the reason?"

"Shrunk production, a bunch of people think that as long as there are young and handsome people, the movie will definitely be paid by fans. This is wrong. Mainstream movies must be large-scale commercial movies, fan movies, art movies, and independent movies should be just auxiliary!"

"…I said this five years ago that Yuehua only knows how to make mainstream movies!"

Tang Ningyu took over the topic: "The Wandering Earth proves that we already have the ability to make big-scale science fiction movies. Next, we will carry out a series of developments around the works of "Liu Cixin"!"

Zhang Junsheng reminded: "…Please pay attention to coordinating schedules with other companies..."

"...You're thinking too much. At present, we are the only one in China who has the ability to produce big movies with a cost of more than 100 million US dollars!"

Brother Song suddenly interrupted: "...I heard that Anle Film and Television and Lu Chuan joined forces to create the Fengshen movie?"
Chapter completed!
