Because of his relationship with "Pirates of the Caribbean" released on the same weekend, Matthew specifically checked the information about "Shocks from the Sky" and found that "Van Helsing" is not alone. "Shocks from the Sky" also gathered a group of famous monsters, which can be called a movie work that gathers monsters.

Alan Courtman, the explorer in "The Treasure of Solomon", Tom Sawyer in "The Adventures of Tom Sawyer", Captain Nemo in "Twenty Thousand Miles Under the Sea", Dr. Hyde in "The Incarnation Doctor", Mina in "The Kiss of Dracula", Incarnation in "The Invisible Man", Dorian Gray in "Portrait of Dorian Gray"...

These people responded to the call of Queen Victoria of Great Britain and formed a "special gentlemen's alliance" to fight against the madman ghosts who attempted to subvert the world.

After reading the information, Matthew only felt that this was the Avengers or Justice League in the Victorian era? It turned out that Hollywood had the idea of ​​forming a team to kill monsters so early, and the male lead was the famous Sean Connery.

Unfortunately, he had never seen this video and had no impression at all.

Matthew then saw in the newspaper that the box office of "Shocks from the Sky" was more than half less than "Pirates of the Caribbean", less than $3 million.

Just from the box office in advance, "The Strange Swordsman" is simply impossible to be a rival to "Pirates of the Caribbean".

This is true. One day after Friday, Pirates of the Caribbean earned $22.2 million, while "Shocks from Heaven" only $8.5 million. The two films are not on the same level at all.

The gap in reputation is even greater.

One day after "Shocks from Heaven" was released, Rotten Tomatoes was only a pitiful 17% freshness, while "Pirates of the Caribbean" remained above 80%.

On imdb, the average score of "Shocks from the Sky" audience was 5.9 points, and they failed directly; "Pirates of the Caribbean" reached 8.3 points!

These two films are completely incomparable.

The extremely poor reputation of "The Strange Swordsman" also made Matthew throw it aside. No matter from any perspective, the film starring Sean Connery is not enough to pose any threat to "Pirates of the Caribbean".

The media is also comparing these two commercial masterpieces released at the same time. Even in the crowded summer season, it is rare for two works with investments of more than $70 million to be released on the same weekend.

Even big newspapers like the Los Angeles Times have published a related comment.

"As a commercial entertainment movie released at the same time, "Shocks from the Sky" is completely incomparable with "Pirates of the Caribbean". The gap is all-round."

"First of all, as a director, Stephen Norrington, director of "Skyfall", made an extremely clever and amazing creativity into a vulgar and bad movie; Gore Vipensky, director of "Pirates of the Caribbean", was just the opposite. The old-fashioned pirate theme was reborn under his command."

"The second is the actor. Sean Connery, the protagonist of "Skyfall", has been so many years. Even if he plays an explorer, he still looks like James Bond; on the other hand, the male lead of "Pirates of the Caribbean", Johnny Depp, with Jack Sparrow's gorgeous turn, brought a stunning performance; the vase roles in the two films are also obvious. Stewart Townsend and Matthew Horner are the appearances in the two films. They play both masters who use swords in the film. Stewart Townsendmuner is like a stone, but Matthew Horner plays a rock-like character vividly..."

Seeing this, Stewart Townsend threw away the Los Angeles Times in his hand, and his face was obviously not very good-looking. He woke up early on Saturday morning and felt unhappy when he got yesterday's box office data. Now the newspaper still compares him with an unknown man in this way. It's all ridiculed. How could he feel better?

"Shocks from the Sky" is his first time in a big production, which directly determines his future. The box office of the film is worrying, his future...

The sudden sound of footsteps interrupted his thoughts. Stewart Townsend looked up and saw his girlfriend Charlize Theron coming out of the gym. Her originally bloated figure had already lost much better.

"What's wrong, my dear?" Charlize Theron asked looking at him.

Stewart Townsend suddenly remembered that he had heard Charlize Theron mention the name Matthew Horner, and recalled it a little, "Do you know Matthew Horner?"

Although Stewart Townsend's expression was a bit wrong, Charlize Theron did not want to deceive his boyfriend and said, "I met him last year at the Black Mamba Bar in Depp. I, Depp and Keanu, and I drank a few times at the Black Mamba Bar with Matthew Horner."

"Stop drinking there in the future." Stewart Townsend said with a sinister face, "Don't talk to Matthew Horner anymore!"

Charlize Theron frowned slightly and asked, "Why, I..."

"No!" Stewart Townsend suddenly became furious and directly interrupted Charlize Theron's words, "Because I don't like him!"

After saying this, Charlize Theron wanted to tell the difference, but Stewart Townsend grabbed the Los Angeles Times just now and threw it over. The newspaper spread out and landed all over the ground in front of Charlize Theron.

Stewart Townsend shouted at Charlize Theron, "You go to the Black Mamba Bar again, don't come back! I don't welcome you here!"

Charlize Theron kept silent. Although she bought the house and paid for the cars in the garage, she was basically responsible for the expenses of both of them, she could tolerate them for this hard-won love.

Stewart Townsend stood up and went upstairs, this damn Pirates of the Caribbean, this damn Matthew Horner...

Burbank, in the office of Angel Brokerage, Amanda was sitting on Helen Herman's office chair, looking through the website on the computer.

"Helen, "Pirates of the Caribbean" will definitely be a big hit?" she asked curiously.

Helen Herman was sitting on the sofa and savoring the green tea Matthew gave her, putting down his cup and saying, "The first weekend's box office will not be less than $50 million."

She was not talking nonsense. After the midnight box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean", both Disney Pictures and many professional prediction agencies in the outside world raised the lowest box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean" to $50 million in the first weekend.

Amanda looked up and asked again, "Is Matthew going to be a big star?"

"As long as the Pirates of the Caribbean is not bad in the later stages," Helen Herman said calmly, "It is not a problem for Matthew to become a second-tier star."

"I heard you say that the later trend is directly related to the reputation of the audience." Amanda looked down at the computer screen again, "From the Internet, the response of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is very good."

She flipped the web page and saw the positive reviews of "Pirates of the Caribbean" everywhere. This is different from the comments of film critics like Rotten Tomatoes, and reflects the views of first-tier market viewers.

"Can the captain and the blacksmith be more handsome? The captain is unruly and the blacksmith is domineering, and they are all full of passion. They are both the ultimate of men!"

"This video is full of originality, the captain is so beautiful, the blacksmith is so cool, the two of them are perfect! The only disadvantage is that Elizabeth Swan, this character appears between Depp and Matthew, and it feels too incompatible."

"The two characters Jack Sparrow and Will Turner are so outstanding that they increase the fun of the whole movie!"

"The plot is complete, the plot is compact, and the routine is so acceptable. The most important thing is that I met a actor Matthew Horner who will never be forgotten."

Amanda then opened imdb, and the website also received a lot of praise.

"Pirates of the Caribbean" will definitely become a classic entertainment film, smooth stories, intensive fights and funny, Hans Jimo's classic soundtrack, crazy and lazy, drunk, Captain Jack with orchid fingers, Depp is so charming and domineering, the love between the beautiful and rebellious noble girl and the poor boy, a group of skeleton villains walking under the sea, the cannonballs and rushing through the huge waves between the pirate ships, and the captain mobilized his subordinates to set sail after getting on the ship, full of Disney's unabashed childlike innocence for fantasy adventures, shocking."

"Depp and Matthew play two of the most charming characters, which are more outstanding than the whole story, with feminine sea siege and powerful blacksmith."

"I think there shouldn't be too many action scenes in a Pirate movie, but after watching it, the balance between action and drama is done quite well. Of course, there are also many interesting clips interspersed between action and drama. Some very good special effects also add to the fun of the movie. If you like action movies you will love this, if you like comedy you will love this, this is a top entertainment movie: drama, action, adventure, humor is combined so perfectly!"

Turn off imdb, Amanda went to Matthew's personal blog to read it again. Unlike the calmness before, Matthew's blog is very lively, and the message area is almost bursting.

"Matthew, you're so manly! I like you..."

There are so many messages from female movie fans like this.

"As a face and body control, the one I pay most attention to is Matthew, it's so cool!"

There are also many comments like this.

There are more rational fans, leaving messages like the voices of most viewers who praise the film.

"Matthew and Depp supported the whole movie, and the brilliance emitted by their two partners even covered the story and special effects of the movie."

A very small number of people made some inexplicable remarks.
Chapter completed!
