Hollywood Starts with Animation

wb television network, entertainment channel.

Anna Corinna, the host of the "Today's Movie Observation" program, said on the TV screen, "According to the information of this reporter, as of today, the overall decline of the North American film market during the Halloween period this year is serious, compared with last year, um. , that is, the Halloween schedule in 2000, the total market value in 2001 was only $5.3 billion at the box office, far lower than last year's $13.9 billion."

"Moonlight Panic 4" and "Scream 3", two well-known horror/thriller movies, also had box office revenue far below expectations."

"Currently"

""Moonlight 4" was released for 15 days, with a cumulative box office of 37 million US dollars;"

"Scream 3" was released for 7 days, with a cumulative box office of 19 million US dollars;"

"Other released Halloween-themed movies, such as Paramount's "The Return of a Ghost," Universal Pictures' "Fright Days," Searchlight Pictures' "Seeing Souls," and Columbia's "Killing Soldiers" as many as more than 20 films The movie is now in a blood loss, and the revenue is far lower than the performance of the same period last year."

Golden Dawn Entertainment Group.

At this moment, while looking at the report data in his hand, Zhu Ke listened to the sound from the TV, and exclaimed again, "This Halloween schedule, it is estimated that many film companies will close down and go out of business~"

This year's Halloween schedule, a number of Hollywood film companies can be called blood mold!

Loss all!

The six big Hollywood companies with big business, even if the movies on the Halloween schedule have lost money, they can survive without breaking the bones, but for third- and fourth-tier movies with total assets of only tens of millions and millions of dollars For the company, it's a complete shock.

Many third- and fourth-tier film companies simply failed to survive

Alexander sighed, "Boss, I learned from the Verdi Box Office Data Company. Recently, due to the bleak movie market during the Halloween period, more than 14 Hollywood film companies have fallen, which is the most in history!"

"so much?!"

Zhu Ke was immediately surprised and said, "Last year, there were not so many movie companies that closed down in Hollywood."

Alexander nodded affirmatively.

The follow-up impact of the 9/11 incident is much more serious than everyone imagined. At least the movies released on Halloween this year are very sad. The bosses and investors of a group of film companies gritted their teeth in anger.

"Boss, I learned from Kevin Feige that the performance of Wald Pictures in the second half of this year will be ugly. If it is only from the film distribution business? It is very likely that the performance in the second half of the year will be a loss."

Alexander said suddenly.

Zucker nodded? Expressing understanding.

Not to mention Wald Pictures, Hollywood's more than 90% of the film companies? Which one is not complaining narrowly?

The North American film market affected by the 9/11 incident? It's so stupid!

Alexander said again, "Thanks to Wald Pictures' release of several good films in the first half of this year, and the feedback from the offline DVD and video tape market is good? Otherwise, the overall loss will not be small."

Wald Pictures.

"Fortunately, it was withdrawn in time!"

"Otherwise, our loss is not just the announcement fee of only 20 million US dollars."

The head of production, Gavin O'Connor, said solemnly.

Kevin Feige said with a lingering fear, "The three movies "Rage," "Death Come 2", "Fast and Furious 1"? If we had insisted on the release? many."

Affected by the follow-up of the 9/11 incident, even if Wald Pictures adopted the timely stop loss method of withdrawing files, it still suffered heavy losses.

In other words? No film company has a good time under the current situation!

A bleak North American film market? It has broken the hearts of countless film companies.

"The current North American film market needs a savior, and I think that Wald Pictures is likely to become the savior of the current market!"

Gavin O'Connor said heavily.

Why?

Because in just a few days, the animated film "Flying House Globe", produced by Water World Animation and distributed by Wald Pictures, took 22 months to create, and it will be released soon!

"Flying House Globe" animation film? The production cost alone is as high as 1.1 billion US dollars. It is the first time that the production cost of a single episode exceeds 100 million US dollars since the establishment of Water World Animation.

Also the most expensive movie!

Similarly, it is also the first feature-length animated film launched by Water World Animation after Water World Animation Company went public at the end of 1999.

It is the key work of Jin Shuguang Entertainment Group in 2001.

Gavin O'Connell held back his excitement and said, "Now the market value of Water World Animation on Nasdaq is as high as 2.1 billion US dollars. Is this still the market value after the 9/11 incident? Once the "Flying House Globe" box office hits? No ? Even if the box office is decent, the water world animation will soar directly~~”

For the water world animation company, Wald Pictures also attaches great importance to it.

Once the box office of "Flying House Globe" is a big hit, then Wald Pictures, as the film distributor, will also make a lot of money, at least it will be able to make up for the performance losses in the second half of this year.

Pixar Animation.

"The savior of the North American film market, who else is there other than Pixar?!"

"Our "Monsters, Inc." cost as much as 11.5 billion U.S. dollars, and took two years to create. It was carefully crafted by more than 400 people with countless days and nights. Just ask, if we are not the savior of the market, then we will who is it?"

As "Monsters, Inc." is about to be released, Steve Jobs, the chairman of Pixar and the largest shareholder, came to the scene today out of his busy schedule and personally shouted and cheered.

Jobs looked around the crowd and continued to say aloud, "Maybe someone will mention Water World Animation's "Flying House Globe"?"

"Ha ha!"

"Do we need to be afraid?"

"Don't forget, we are the number one animation company in the world today!!!"

This remark, Jobs is full of confidence.

In an instant, the audience burst into applause and shouts.

John Lasseter, the leader of Pixar's five tigers, first responded, "Boss is right, the savior of today's market must be us."

Andrew Stanton "Of course! The animation technology of the water world is the result of our assistance, they are not as good as us!"

Peter Docter, David Silverman, Lee Unkrich and other creators of the animated film "Monsters, Inc." are burning with flames.

Also a veteran of Pixar, John Lasseter has "Toy Story", and Andrew Stanton also has "A Bug's Life" honor, but the three of them are the only ones who have no representative works at all.

You say, can the heart be reconciled?

The three of them held their breath!

" "The first more is sent.
