Chapter 1115 Crazy Primitive

Ronan showed the green light for both projects and obtained the copyright as quickly as possible.

Red Carolin has worked together, so it is not difficult to talk about.

The author of "Argo" is not very famous and has no work adapted from movies in the past. Faced with the copyright bid of Relativity Entertainment of $2 million, he declared surrender in just two days.

Compared with the former, Ronan attaches more importance to the latter. After obtaining the copyright of "Argo", he specially convened the screenwriter responsible for the adaptation to make some suggestions.

Because if this film wants to succeed, it must take tricks, especially the theme and content adhere to the so-called "American political correctness".

Needless to say, the complex relationship between the United States and Iran is clear to anyone who has understood the international situation.

As a Hollywood film company and the film market are mainly in the West, you can imagine the position of adapting scripts.

The film will start from a seemingly relatively neutral standpoint to describe the incident and turn the Iranians into a brainless fan of Hollywood.

The former film, the scene of escaping from the airport, fully exposed the "true face" of the Iranian soldiers...

Ronan knew very well that if you want to make a profit, you must go to the awards season and the Oscars to operate. Political correctness is an option that cannot be ignored.

Therefore, the structure of Hollywood's standard political thriller genre is very suitable for the adaptation of this project.

The tense and exciting last-minute rescue mode, the American main theme of moral good and evil is also subtracted in the choice of events, making the story as simple and direct as possible.

Coupled with the necessary background preparation and the implantation of real news materials, the theme of the film becomes more profound. Various elements such as CIA and Hollywood film industry and political issues that occupy the moral high ground can add some topicality and viewability to the film.

As for what Iranians will think, it is not within the scope of the adaptation.

From another perspective, this is a typical American pretentious personal heroism movie.

Reflecting the real history? Don’t joke, let alone Hollywood, look at the real events in the world. Which movie is not a small part is still reliable, and most of it depends on making up the most?

This project is included in Shahai Entertainment's future plan and preparations will not start until next year as soon as possible.

There is no award-winning project for Relativity Entertainment this year. The main focus of next year's award-winning season is "The Fantasy Drift of the Young Pi" being filmed by Ang Lee.

After a brief absence of an awards season, Relativity Entertainment will soon be back.

At the Oscars, Relativity Entertainment has achieved four consecutive championships in the best film. There may be five consecutive championships, but the chances are low, and the price paid may increase infinitely.

Relativity Entertainment's main energy this year is all focused on commercial movies. So far, the top three in the North American box office rankings have been occupied by Relativity Entertainment's films, namely "Avatar", "Alice in Wonderland" and "Iron Man 2".

Later, Relativity Entertainment also has the animated feature films "Crazy Primitive Man" and the live-action films "The Hunger Games", "Beauty and the Beast" and "Captain America" ​​released.

Among the top ten in North America's box office list this year, Relativity Entertainment can get at least six or seven positions.

Relativity Entertainment's strength in film has entered the eruption period after years of operation and copyright accumulation.

On the first Monday of November, Embassy Pictures released its third animated feature film of the year, "The Crazy Primitive Man" produced by Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio.

As an animated feature film released in the same year as "Avatar", and there are no particularly intense or shaking scenes, "Crazy Primitive Man" has many clips produced in 3D format.

The rest of the parts were also converted into 3D format in post-production.

Anyway, this is an animated movie with some 3D images very stunning.

Because of the use of 3D technology, "Crazy Primitive Man" also created a single movie investment record for Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio, with a production cost of up to US$90 million.

In terms of character design, Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio accurately grasped the trend of society, placed female characters in a more important position, and broke the dominant position of the family patriarchy.

Especially in the image design of the characters, it is unique.

The character design in the film is very interesting, which is different from the exaggerated shapes of ordinary cartoons, nor is it completely realistic.

Those prehistoric cavemen were made very strong and looked like a wall.

Moreover, the female style—such as the heroine Aip, has strong thighs and thick calves—is very different from the practice of specifically refining the leg lines of female characters in many cartoons.

The animal characters in the film have great successful experiences of the Minions. Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio mainly highlights a little in the animal characters - cute!

Those strange animal characters should be different from real animals, but they should not be exaggerated to be too imaginative.

Only cute characters can become hot spots in surrounding sales.

This animated feature film is full of highlights. The American football hunting competition that just started was enough to arouse the audience's interest and press them firmly on the theater.

In addition, the values ​​of the film are naturally likable. Although they are very old-fashioned, they are the most likable type in the world.

Family! Family! Or family!

No one can deny the importance of home. Family is the basis of human society and feelings. The familiar family relationship has been very humorous and exaggerated in the context of the primitive era.

The reactions of the primitive people when facing new things are also a very outstanding part of the film.

This is a movie suitable for the whole family to watch together. Children can see themselves who are rebellious and eager for new things. Parents will resonate with the original people in the film who do not know how to communicate with their children but deeply love them. The elderly can enjoy the warmth of their family from the film.

In the real world, every family has difficult sutras to recite, and the problems are strange, but most people always love their families.

Of course, as a work by Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio, whose style has been erected, the biggest feature of "Crazy Primitive Man" in terms of expression is still funny.

The animation studios under Relativity Entertainment have very different styles.

Pixar goes left, Sand Sea animation goes right.

This "Crazy Primitive Man" adheres to the usual animation style of Shahai Animation Studio. The characters are not beautiful or even a bit ugly, but they are as cute as ever. The whole film is full of nonsensical funny, which makes people take off the heavy burden of work and life after watching it, and only have a lot of ease left.

As for depth, you don’t need to think about it. For the so-called depth, it is better to watch European art films.

The in-depth animated film stands for "Robot Wallet", which was released in June to the lower level in North America, and global box office and commercial revenue have created the lowest point since Pixar Studios entered the new century.

Yes, the movie is very classic, and even the animation featured masterpieces.

But for the film company, the result is not ideal.

If more than 200 million US dollars of funds are invested, the income is not as good as the minors who invested 60,000 to 70,000 US dollars, and as investors, of course they will not be satisfied.

Another point is that this work of Confucianism does not have the space or need to make a sequel.

This is a failure for the business operation model in Hollywood today.

With the help of the 3D popular wave driven by "Avatar" and "Alice in Wonderland", Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio has also set its mark through the "Minius" series and "Kung Fu Panda". In addition, this is also the first real-3D animated feature film this year. "Crazy Primitive Man" has received a warm response after its release and the audience's reputation is also very good.

On the first weekend of painting in North America, "The Crazy Primitive Man" won $62.21 million in 4,230 theaters, making a good start for Relativity Entertainment in the holiday season.

Animated feature films have always been the mainstay of long-term operations, and most of them have relatively stable trends. Although they faced "Madagascar 2" by DreamWorks Animation Studios the next weekend after their release, ten days after their release, the box office in North America still easily exceeded 100 million, up to 112.68 million US dollars.

DreamWorks has generally developed smoothly in the past two years, and has also ushered in a box office work in the field of animation films. With the good foundation laid by the first film, "Madagascar 2" has made a big hit in paintings, earning $63.1 million in the first weekend.

With its good audience reputation and strong publicity and distribution capabilities of Relativity Entertainment, "Crazy Primitive Man" finally had a box office of over $200 million in North America.

Since Shahai Entertainment Animation Studio's project investment is relatively low, even if the promotional and distribution costs are included, the total cost of "Crazy Primitive Man" is only US$150 million, which is enough to achieve high profits with the global box office.

Moreover, many characters in the film are also conducive to the sales of peripheral products.

In this world, the peripheral products of animated feature films are becoming more and more cute and beautiful.

The previous item is even more important than the latter item.

With Thanksgiving coming, more commercial films are starting to be released in large numbers, and theaters will become crowded again. Some films that have been shown for too long and are gradually lacking in the audience's interest, so they have to be removed in order to make enough screening space for the new film.

After half a year of screening of "Avatar", the audience gradually decreased, and fewer people bought tickets to enter the theater.

In fact, since two months ago, the ordinary 2D version of "Avatar" has been ignored. It has been offline from theaters across the United States. Since the screenings have been held, all 3D and imax3D theaters.

But in this fast food era, it is obviously impossible for Avatar to realize the screening of "Titanic" in North American theaters in the past year.

Cinema companies also don’t allow it, they also want profits.

"Avatar" was fully launched from North American theaters and ended the screening journey with a record $788.56 million.

In terms of the international market, similar to "Titanic" ten years ago, its overseas box office is nearly three times that of North America, and its current global box office is as high as US$2.756.68 million.
