On the day of the premiere of the film, crowds were everywhere outside the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, densely packed.

On the red carpet, Hollywood stars in custom-made dresses greeted with smiles.

In addition, there are a group of elves and angels from Victoria's Secret.

The atmosphere was very warm.

The only unharmonious voice was that there were two people facing each other outside the premiere scene.

One group of people is the protest group, and the other group is the protest crowd from Star Brokerage Company.

The two are well distinguished.

The protesters from the Star Brokerage Company not only uniformly wore custom-made clothes, but also received the support of the "Lord of the Rings" Fan Association.

This is an unofficial organization, and the crew of "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" has cooperated with the other party in some activities.

Through the car window, Stephen Spielberg saw the crowds of people, and felt the charm of "Lord of the Rings" up close for the first time.

"The adaptation copyright of this work seems to have been snatched by Orion Films from New Line Films at first." Stephen Spielberg looked sideways at Ridley Scott and asked.

He doesn't know much about this film, he has only heard about it.

"The director of this film, Peter Jackson, originally planned to cooperate with Miramax Films, but in the end, the adaptation rights were bought by Orion Films."

Ridley Scott thought for a moment and said, "Robert Shay, the president of New Line Pictures, is also interested in this project."

Miramax Films!

A hint of sarcasm appeared on the corner of Steven Spielberg's mouth. With the strength of the Wayne Brothers, it is impossible to come up with a budget of 300 million US dollars at one time.

But Robert Shea's vision and courage might put a lot of money into the "Lord of the Rings" project, just like when New Line Pictures got the distribution rights of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles".

"Robert has always had a good eye."

"By the way, what is the scale of the film's first day of release?" He suddenly asked curiously.

"3,600 movie theaters." Ridley-Scott said with a hint of envy in his tone, "The cinema company has temporarily increased the screening scale of at least 100 movie theaters."

The scale of the first day of release is 3,600 cinemas!

Stephen Spielberg became silent, and the scale of the release of "Gladiator" was less than 3,100 theaters.

This is still backed by Universal Pictures.

But even with the support of Universal Pictures, there is still a gap of more than 500 movie theaters in the release scale of the two films.

From this point, it can be seen that theater companies are very optimistic about the prospect of "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring".

"According to the news from the theater company, the test screening of this film is very good. Many viewers think that this is a classic film, and..."

Ridley-Scott suddenly said bitterly: "The theater company believes that this film has an A﹢ commercial evaluation."

The last movie that a theater company gave an A﹢ commercial evaluation was "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace"? Or "Inception"!

There is absolutely no good news for Gladiator.

If not, Ridley-Scott will not insist on changing the release time of "Gladiator".

After a while, the car stopped, and the two walked onto the red carpet with smiles on their faces, waving hello to the crowd on both sides from time to time, without any worries from the conversation just now.

Ryan was slightly surprised by the arrival of Stephen Spielberg. Orion Pictures only sent an invitation letter to DreamWorks symbolically, but he did not expect that Stephen Spielberg actually came.

In fact, Steven Spielberg just wanted to see "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" earlier, and choosing to accept the invitation to the premiere of the film was the best way.

"The protest crowd outside is!"

Cindy Crawford held Ryan's arm, heard the voices of protest and support from outside, and couldn't help asking worriedly: "Will the protest affect the premiere!"

"Don't worry, it's just a farce." Ryan greeted Jonathan Mostow not far away, walked to the screening hall with Cindy Crawford, and said, "This film Can't fail."

During the release of the original "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, there were also a large number of fans protesting and opposing.

But the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy not only sold well at the box office, but also became a recognized classic film. Those voices of protest and opposition naturally disappeared.

Even when the first screening of "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" is over, there will naturally be a large number of audiences who are shocked by the film, and they will spontaneously organize to refute.

This is not some extras, but a real audience.

Never underestimate the persistence of fans.

Looking at the confident Ryan, Cindy Crawford's eyes flashed with fascination, "This film will definitely be a success."

Ryan smiled, went to the seat and sat down, and talked about another thing, "The next 007 series film is expected to start filming next year, and I will ask the crew to send you an audition invitation .”

007 series of films!

Bond girl!

Cindy Crawford's eyes flashed with surprise. Her role in "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" seemed to be very good at first glance.

But in fact, at most it can be regarded as an important supporting role, and there is not much room for development.

The 007 series is different. Every Bond girl is an important role in the film and can get a lot of attention, just like the Bond girl Sophie Marceau in the last 007 film, which amazed countless media and audiences .

"Do I need to make some preparations in advance?" She asked in a low voice.

"It's best to accept some simple flexibility training." Ryan explained: "This is an action movie, and the heroine is likely to have action shots."

The script hasn't come out yet, and he doesn't know whether the Bond girl in the film has any action scenes.

Of course, there is no harm in receiving some simple training in advance.

"Of course, you can also wait for the script to come out. After all, you still have other work to do." He added.

"I see." Cindy Crawford pointed to the big screen and said, "My focus right now is The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring."

For some time now, she has tasted the rewards of being an elf queen.

No matter what occasion you attend, as long as you talk about the filming of "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" and the feeling of playing the Elven Queen, etc., you will definitely become the focus of the audience.

She is also full of confidence in the release of this film.

There are also many viewers who have watched the trailer, and they are also full of confidence in this film.

Although many viewers are skeptical about "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring", most viewers have a faint expectation.

"Come on, Bill."

Jeremy Howard couldn't help urging his friend to go to the toilet with him, "I don't want to miss an important scene because I'm in a hurry to pee."

"Please, didn't you see the protesters outside just now!" Bill Irwin complained, standing up and walking towards the toilet~www.wuxiahere.com~Peter Jackson will destroy "Lord of the Rings". "

Hearing his companion's slanderous words, Jeremy Howard turned around and said confidently: "Don't forget, the production company of this film is Orion Films."

"A studio that never disappoints its audience."

Thinking of the blockbuster films produced by Orion Films, Bill Irwin's tone changed, "Of course I know that the film production company is Orion Films, otherwise I wouldn't have come from Chicago to Los Angeles to attend the premiere of the film. "

He thinks as do most viewers, and Orion Pictures never disappoints.

Well, "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" is indeed a classic film that will not disappoint most viewers.

Of course, no film is perfect, at least "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" is not, some people must like it, some people don't like it.

It's just that the vast majority of the audience will like it, and only a small part of the audience will dislike it.

As for Orion Pictures!

For "Black Hawk Down," which was released in April, the North American box office of the film has exceeded 86.3 million US dollars, while the overseas box office is so-so.

"Tomb Raider", which was released earlier, will be officially released in North America. The North American box office reached 148 million US dollars, the overseas box office was 113 million US dollars, and the global box office of the film was 261 million US dollars, which is much more than the original version.

In addition, the North American box office of "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" also exceeded 100 million US dollars, and the overseas box office also exceeded 100 million US dollars.

It can be said that the films produced by Orion Films have almost become synonymous with blockbusters.
