In fact, since the new century, several works directed by Spielberg have performed quite weakly in business. The box office and offline revenue of "Artificial Intelligence", "Minority Report" and "Abstain from the Imprisonment" have not achieved the expected goals.

Even with Tom Hanks joining this movie, it still cannot change Spielberg's recent weakness.

Two thousand years ago, Spielberg and Tom Hanks' box office in the first week did not exceed $40 million, and North America's box office was not above $200 million, which was simply unimaginable.

It seems that all Spielberg's weakness and problems broke out in "The End of Happiness".

If you analyze this situation carefully, it is not difficult to find some of the reasons.

DreamWorks' situation and internal disputes dispersed Spielberg's energy.

Over the past twenty years, the audience seems to have a certain degree of boredom with Spielberg's patterned films.

The times are developing, the older generation is gradually silent, and the new generation of directors is rising, just like the four major directors, including Spielberg, reached their peak in the 1980s. This is an inevitable rule.

"Happy End" has a poor box office and a mediocre reputation. It is difficult for DreamWorks to get corresponding returns in a short period of time or even two or three years.

Other films that were drawn this weekend are much better than "Happy Terminal" in terms of investment and income ratio.

The production cost is $29 million, and "Looking for Notebook" starring Ryan Gosling and Rachel McAdams earned $13.45 million in three days on weekends.

Although the box office of Fox Searchlight's "Big Man Napoleon" was only $7.75 million in the first weekend, its cost was only $10 million.

In contrast, "Crazy Dodgeball" starring Ben Stiller became the biggest winner in the new film. This comedy film with a budget of only $20 million was obtained. It received $30.07 million in three days after the opening weekend.

In this period of medium-sized film push, "Crazy Dodgeball" will undoubtedly become one of the winners of making big profits with small gains.

But this is not enough to guarantee "Crazy Dodgeball" to the box office championship.

Because of the chaos and strangle of many films, "Wedding Proud" by Relativity Entertainment is still the only one.

The box office trend of this vulgar comedy is extremely stable, even so stable that it is not like an American comedy.

The box office of "Wedding Proud" fell by only 25% over the first weekend, and won the North American box office championship with US$30.85 million.

Ten days after its release, the box office of "Wedding Proud" in North America has accumulated US$118.24 million!

Compared with the production cost of $30 million and the promotional expenses of $15 million, the film has undoubtedly achieved great success.

The outside world has also raised the North American box office expectations of "Wedding Prochon" to $200 million.

The outstanding commercial performance of this film also made the Embassy Film Industry confident. Taking advantage of the fact that there was no heavyweight production film released before "Spider-Man 2" at the end of June, another wave of publicity companies was launched.

The promotion still takes Ronan as the producer as the core.

"Since entering Hollywood, except for the first failed test film, Ronan produced or purchased copyrights, has achieved almost all commercial success, from the earliest horror films such as "Human Purge Project" and "Death is Coming", the agent action films in "The Pirates of the Caribbean" series, the magic adventure films in "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, the game adaptation films of "Resident Evil", the youth idol films of "Summer in Jeans" and "Mean Girl", the oriental martial arts films represented by "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" and "Heroes", to the comedy films of "Wedding Proud", Ronan has been involved in almost all commercial film types in Hollywood, with a very high success rate..."

The article in the Los Angeles Times counts the types of movies involved in Ronan since he started his career, which surprised many people.

The famous film critic Todd McCarthy wrote on his Netflix sharing: Compared to another Hollywood commercial producer, Ronan Anderson is involved in more types of videos and has a higher success rate!

A reporter who had good news specifically interviewed Jerry Brookheimer about Ronan. Although both sides could only be said to be aware of each other and were not familiar with each other, there was no direct conflict of interest. Jerry Brookheimer was quite polite.

"I'm more focused on the field of adventure action movies, and Ronan Anderson has a wider range of movies," Jerry Brookheimer told the media reporter: "But in my opinion, I have one thing in common with Ronan Anderson, that is, I love to tell easy-to-understand stories and fully respect the market and audience."

"Entertainment Weekly" selected Ronan as the cover character this week. In the cover slogan, it used eye-catching fonts to remind all movie fans - Ronan Anderson - has become a movie brand.

These reports not only allow the audience to continue to pay attention to "Wedding Proud", but also remind those who missed some relativity entertainment movies to go to the offline market to find movies.

Since Embassy Films has focused on promoting various soft article reports on Ronan, Netflix's website has nearly 10% more video rental orders for films produced by "Ronan Anderson" than last month.

The offline market can allow a video to generate commercial returns continuously.

Of course, the box office results of the theater market directly determine the strength of offline returns.

The new weekend is coming, and the popularity of "Wedding Prok" in the third week continues to decline steadily. Under the impact of a number of new films, it is expected to give up the throne of the box office champion.

"Fahrenheit 911" that won this year's Cannes Film Festival's Palme d'Or, with a crazy public opinion heat, and North America closed at $35.66 million in its first weekend.

This film once again proves to the world that no matter the authenticity and quality of the film, as long as it can cause huge controversy, the commercial prospects will not be bad.

The whole of the United States and the world are crazy about this documentary. Xiaobian and stupid classmates are once again standing at the forefront. Many people even believe that this film will drive Xiaobian out of the white house in the next election.

But this true and false documentary can't shake Xiao Bei at all.

Many people overestimate the influence of Fahrenheit 911.

After all, Hollywood movies, whether they are documentaries or biopics, those who basically know a little about the film industry know that they are full of nonsense.

If someone regards movies made in Hollywood as golden rules, it can only be said that not only water enters the head, but also a whole Pacific Ocean.

After waiting for too long, Lionsgate Pictures finally ushered in a hit movie.

But Fahrenheit 911 brought more than just good news in the box office. Many well-informed people like Ronan have received some rumors that Lionsgate has been targeted in states and counties such as Texas and Alabama.

Although many people describe the person sitting in the Oval Office as a pig, it is not a real pig after all.

Moreover, Lionsgate is not a relativity entertainment, and Frank Gusta has not really analyzed Ronan's approach in "Blair the Witch" and "The Passion of the Passion", and did not put Michael Moore in front, but instead tied Lionsgate with "Fahrenheit 911".

This is probably also the effect brought by Ronan. Since the establishment of Relativity Entertainment, Lionsgate Pictures has been suppressed a bit miserable. There are only a handful of movies that have received good responses. Now there are finally a hit, and the entire company's suppressed emotions have erupted.

As for whether this is a good thing or a bad thing, it depends on the development of Lionsgate Pictures in the next few years.

This weekend belongs to "Fahrenheit 911". Even in the future, "Fahrenheit 911" will be the focus of media and public discussion.

In addition, the comedy "Miss Is White" released by Sony Columbia Pictures also performed well this weekend. The nearly $20 million in opening weekend box office also marked another successful comedy this summer.

Although "Wedding Proud" gave up the title of the North American box office list, the trend was terrible. The box office fell by only 24% this weekend, and it closed at another $23.45 million.

As a result, the cumulative box office of "Wedding Producer" in North America has reached US$161.28 million.

As for the next weekend, it will be a test for all the films being screened, because Spider-Man 2 will come strongly.

On the new Monday, Vin Diesel's agent came to Shahai Entertainment Production Company and met Jessica Felton, the producer of the "Fast and Furious" series.

The agent was a little helpless when facing a strong client like Vin Diesel, but he was still a little clever when negotiating with the production company and did not directly relay Vin Diesel's four conditions.

"Miss Felton, my client has starred in the first "Fast and Furious"" the agent said loudly, "It's not appropriate to let him audition for Dominic Toreto again?"

The conditions were listed by Jessica Felton because she had heard of Vin Diesel, and the listing of such conditions was originally intended to bargain.

Jessica Felton nodded: "The audition can be cancelled, but we have the conditions."

The agent asked: "What are the conditions? Please explain it clearly."

Jessica Felton's main focus is on the post-production of the two sequels of "Pirates of the Caribbean". The "Fast and Furious" series is only planning for the preliminary stage. It has discussed with Ronan many times. Regarding the role of Dominic Toreto, the two and the screenwriter department made two plans.

"Mr. Van Diesel as an actor." Jessica Felton specifically emphasized the identity of "actor": "Sign no less than five film contracts with Shahai Entertainment for the "Fast and Furious" series!"

The agent's face changed instantly: "This is impossible!"

At this moment, he felt that Shahai Entertainment and the female producer opposite were more like shit-scratchers than Vin Diesel.

Jessica Felton shrugged slightly and confessed: "This is the premise for Shahai Entertainment and Mr. Vin Diesel to collaborate on the "Fast and Furious Series."
