Entering December, "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" began to be screened in 16 movie theaters, and it earned a box office of 660,000 US dollars in three days in the first weekend.

At first glance, the overall box office of the film is not very high, even a little low.

But the average box office data for each theater is not bad.

From next week, theater companies will slightly increase the scale of film releases, and "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" will not be released on a large scale until the eve of the Golden Globes.

Relevant Hollywood agencies predict that "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon" is likely to win important awards at the Golden Globes and Oscars.

At the same time, "Inception", which was released in the summer in July, is currently shown in more than 20 cinemas, and it can only earn a few thousand dollars at the box office every day.

It will be released in North American theaters soon.

Regrettably, the film's North American box office did not reach the expected US$300 million, and it only earned US$29.2 billion at the box office, ranking second on the North American annual box office list.

However, the film's overseas box office has surprised many people.

From the United Kingdom alone, it earned $56 million at the box office, France at $43 million at the box office, Japan at $40 million at the box office, and South Korea at $38 million at the box office.

All together, the overseas box office has a total of 53.1 billion U.S. dollars.

The film grossed $82.3 billion worldwide.

Just in time to reach the global box office expectation of $800 million that Ryan said.

Of course, it is slightly inferior to the global box office of 924.3 billion US dollars in "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace".

The North American box office of the film was US$43.1 billion, the overseas box office was US$49.3 billion, and the global box office was US$924.3 billion.

In the previous life, this film was re-screened once. In 2012, the 3D version of "Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace" was released, and the global box office was once again 10.2 billion US dollars.

In the end, the global box office of the film reached more than 1 billion US dollars.

In the future, Ryan will also choose to re-screen "Inception" and release it in a 3D version.

Another film "Rush Hour 2" produced by Orion Films in the summer,

It is also about to face the next release.

The North American box office of the film is almost fixed at around 22.6 billion US dollars, the overseas box office is 12.1 billion US dollars, and the global box office is 34.7 billion US dollars.

It surpassed the US$20.6 billion box office of New Line Pictures' "Ace Powers 2" and temporarily ranked third in the North American annual box office list.

Next, it depends on whether the North American box office of "Toy Story 2" produced by Pixar Animation Studios can exceed 22.6 billion US dollars.

As for the remuneration of the two leading actors of "Rush Hour 2", Orion Films has reached an agreement with them, agreeing to increase the remuneration, as well as a step-up box office share in North America.

Much less than the original pay.

Orion Films initially signed three film contracts at one time, holding the initiative.

As the three films produced by Orion Films this year came to an end one by one, the total box office has exceeded 1.3 billion US dollars.

And that's without counting "Reaper 2," "American Pie: An American Wedding," "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," and the upcoming "Tomb Raider" in theaters.

There is no doubt that Orion Films' performance in film production this year must rank among the top of all Hollywood film companies, surpassing members of the seven major Hollywood film companies, and even become a new Hollywood giant, thus replacing MGM.

In fact, the revenue of Orion Films has already surpassed MGM, and even the performance of second-tier film companies such as DreamWorks, New Line Pictures, and Lucasfilm has surpassed MGM.

The title of the seven major Hollywood film companies has long existed in name only, and it has been replaced by the six major film companies.

Due to the dazzling performance of Orion Pictures, many North American media have changed their attitude towards "Tomb Raider".

At least the media is very sure that even if the release of "Tomb Raider" fails and the investment in the film cannot be recovered, it will not affect Orion Pictures' revenue this year in the end.

The attitude of the media did not affect the release plan of "Tomb Raider".

At a little past five o'clock in the evening on December 24th, the Chinese Theater in Hollywood was already overcrowded, with gamers coming from all over North America, wanting to witness the release of "Tomb Raider" as soon as possible.

Don't look at the media and Hollywood film companies, don't be optimistic about the adaptation of the game.

But in the game circle, Orion Pictures spent a huge sum of 75 million US dollars to adapt and shoot "Tomb Raider", which has already caused a very big sensation.

"Tomb Raider" is not the first film adapted from a game, but with an investment of up to 75 million US dollars, it is definitely the highest investment so far. It is difficult not to cause a sensation.

As the most popular game at the moment, it has a large number of gamers. Coupled with Orion Pictures' continuous publicity campaign, countless people are full of expectations for "Tomb Raider".

Angelina Jolie, who had just left the interview area, was still very excited, and she hadn't completely calmed down until she entered the lounge.

Once "Tomb Raider" is successful, or even a big hit at the box office, her salary will inevitably increase and she will become one of the top actresses in Hollywood.

A top actress who can support a commercial film on her own.

Angelina Jolie suddenly turned to Ryan next to her and asked, "Can this film really be successful?"

Ryan shrugged, "It depends on how you understand it."

A hint of puzzlement flashed in Angelina Jolie's eyes, "How do you understand!"

""Tomb Raider" has a limited audience, so it's hard to be a big hit at the global box office like some popular commercial movies." Ryan thought for a while and said, "My expectation is..."

"The global box office is about 300 million U.S. dollars."

Hearing Ryan's expectations, Angelina-Jolie was not disappointed, but relieved. The global box office of 300 million US dollars far exceeded her expectations.

"The global box office of 300 million US dollars can already be regarded as a great success."

Angelina-Jolie gave Ryan a weird look, and said, "I'm afraid there aren't many films in Hollywood that can achieve the big hits you mentioned."

For any Hollywood film company, a film with an investment of 75 million US dollars can reach the global box office of about 300 million US dollars, which can be said to be a blockbuster.

"I'm just looking forward to the next sequel, which can be a global box office hit." Ryan said with a smile.

Before filming "Tomb Raider", Orion Films signed a three-film contract with Angelina Jolie at one time.

That said, at least two more sequels are planned.

The original "Tomb Raider" has a North American box office of 13.1 billion US dollars and a global box office of 27.4 billion US dollars, which is considered a great success.

It's a pity that the second "Tomb Raider" sequel film was messed up by Paramount, and it was not as exciting as the first one, and the box office of the film fell severely.

However, instead of losing money, Paramount has achieved commercial success and gained a lot of money, otherwise it would not continue to shoot "Tomb Raider 3", and even invited Angelina Jolie to shoot the fourth sequel film.

I have to complain that the standard of Paramount's series of films is not as good as that of MGM, at least MGM has the 007 series of films.

Angelina - Jolie nodded, she is also looking forward to the box office success of the next sequel.

As a result, with a commercial series, her career will be turned upside down.

"By the way, when the premiere is over, find a place to celebrate."

Angelina Jolie suddenly lowered her voice and said, "By the way, I'll introduce you to a new friend."

There was a strange look in Ryan's eyes, and he asked curiously, "Who is it!"

Angelina-Jolie shook her head with a smile, "All I can say is a great friend."

Before Ryan continued to ask, Angelina Jolie got up and went to the lounge.

Ryan shrugged and also got up to leave.

Not far away, Arnold Schwarzenegger walked over from the front and hugged Ryan.

"A great film."

Arnold Schwarzenegger whispered in Ryan's ear: "Angelina Jolie is beautiful too."

He met Angelina Jolie just now and had a brief chat. She was indeed very beautiful and could be described as full of wildness.

Ryan dismissed Arnold-Schwarzenegger's quip and said with a smile, "I thought you'd choose to be at the premiere of The Talented Ripley."

Speaking of this, Ryan glanced at Arnold Schwarzenegger and said jokingly: "I remember you used to like Patricia Highsmith's works very much."

"The Talented Ripley" is not an original film, but an adaptation of Patricia Highsmith's "The Talented Ripley" of the same name.

This is a very famous crime series.

"how is this possible!"

Arnold Schwarzenegger exaggeratedly screamed, "Compared to our friendship, let "The Talented Ripley" go to hell."

"Besides, I don't have any interest in female or homosexual themes."

After finishing speaking, he winked at Ryan, his tone full of jokes.

Patricia Highsmith has written many works, in addition to detective murder stories and thriller short stories, there are also many works on women and the same topic.

The protagonist of "Tomb Raider", Angelina-Jolie, divorced her husband precisely because of her sex and homosexuality, and the lace news between her and Ryan has long been raging.
