Chatty Hollywood

In fact, it is still a bit early to talk about the "Pirate Universe" now.

If nothing else, today's Marvel is still struggling. There is no shadow of the Marvel giant that will be the envy of the entire Hollywood in the future. Naturally, there is no way to talk about a movie universe.

What's more, although "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" has exploded at the box office and everyone is overjoyed, filming has been completed and "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", which is currently in post-production, has not yet been released.

——The official agreement between Disney and Spectre Studios regarding the "Pirates" series of movies will naturally have to refer to the results of this third film.

In this case, the agreement reached between Charlotte and Robert Egger is actually just an intention. The specific details will have to be completed slowly by the people below.

At this time, Charlotte was paying attention to this matter while supervising the post-production of "Inception" and "Pirates of the Caribbean 3".

——After all, these two movies are both large-scale productions directed by Charlotte herself. One uses a lot of new technologies, and the other is related to whether the "Pirates" trilogy can be concluded perfectly, so he can't help but pay attention to it.

In addition, with the expansion of the studio, there are many other film and television works, which also require Charlotte to pay certain attention.

Take, for example, the TV drama department that Mr. Westwood, who has turned into a ghost, is mainly responsible for——

At present, although "Death Note" has long been completed, due to the high popularity of the broadcast, this series is still providing the studio with considerable income.

After all, just like movies, the proportion of TV series income from post-production peripheral income such as DVDs is also increasing.

Not to mention, "Death Note" also comes with bonuses for stationery products——

By now, black booklets have become so dominant in middle and high school classrooms in North America that the PTA (Parents and Teachers Association) in the United States is considering whether to ban them.

——And Charlotte was a little stunned when she heard the news.

how to say?

Although the two sides of the Pacific have very different styles, sometimes their thinking is very synchronized. Coupled with the fights between the two, there is often nothing going on between the two sides, but the other spectators who are originally watching are very uncomfortable.

——This kind of tragedy where Wanglaoji competes with Jiaduobao and Qizheng fails is not uncommon.

It’s no wonder that later generations of other countries have rumors that G2 is actually a group.

——Of course, North America is fertile soil after all. In the end, the PTA’s evil conspiracy did not succeed.

Although this is largely due to the efforts of "righteous" stationery manufacturers, the fact that Spectre Studio, which received the license fee, "simply wins" does not make any money...

*******

Ultimately, though, Death Note is the past glory of Spectre Studios' television arm.

Nowadays, the series they are filming are mainly "Supernatural" and "The Vampire Diaries".

Although these two series are not as popular as the previous "Death Note", they are not high in cost, are relatively easy to shoot, and can be sustained.

Charlotte previously planned the second-generation hit series "Prison Break" for the TV series department.

Several episodes have been filmed and broadcast on HBO, a pay TV station that pursues excitement and lower limits.

——Judging from the current ratings growth, the prospects are very promising.

It can be said that these three dramas are already established and do not require additional support from Charlotte.

He just needs to pay attention from time to time and wait to count the money.

What really caught his attention were the other two works——

"Shipwreck Island", this former Soviet science fiction novel that Charlotte noticed because she was studying the secrets of the Lord of the Abyss, Mr. Westwood really thought it was good.

Under his guidance, the TV series department of Spectre Studios really turned it into a TV series and premiered it on HBO——

It should be said that this kind of TV series set in the 1920s and 1930s are really rare on North American TV screens in the past ten years.

——In fact, because of the short history of the United States, audiences in this country have always been moderately interested in dramas with historical themes.

If it's a relatively distant subject such as Rome, Greece, or Northern Europe, allowing them to freely imagine, and at the same time being relatively well-known, it's fine. Some medieval and modern themes are actually relatively niche on North American TV screens.

——North American TV series are still mainly based on reality themes, crime themes, and professional themes focusing on doctors, lawyers and other industries.

Under this premise, "Shipwreck Island", which has a relatively niche subject matter, should have only tepid ratings.

But with the help of the great director Charlotte, who specifically optimized the graphics, rhythm and plot of the first three episodes, this series unexpectedly got off to a good start——

By the third episode, its average viewership was approaching 10 million.

——This is a pretty good result for a new series.

Of course, the niche drama series "Shipwreck Island" was able to counterattack, not just by simply borrowing the light of Charlotte -

Apart from anything else, the male and female protagonists chosen by Mr. Westwood this time and the detective as an important supporting role are very popular with the audience.

The "Shipwreck Island" they built in the studio based on the original work and the concept drawings given by Charlotte is even more exquisite and full of characteristics.

——You know, according to Alexander Belyaev’s original work, this magical island was originally composed of shipwrecks of different ages, large and small.

Just reproducing this magical island on the TV screen is enough to arouse the audience's interest.

Not to mention, because it is broadcast on HBO, a pay TV station, the plot of "Shipwreck Island" includes many plots that the audience "loves to hear and see".

Although these plots may make the original author Belyaev almost unable to bear the coffin, it has to be said that the vast majority of people still cannot escape from the low-level taste.

What's more, according to the plot of "Shipwreck Island", the hero and heroine and the supporting character of the detective suffered a shipwreck, and the shipwreck island they drifted to was originally a "small society" where the jungle was strong.

Under this background, it is reasonable to see some exciting scenes.

——This is the same reason as "Spartacus", which will also be broadcast on HBO in the future, uses the background of ancient Rome to engage in violence and out-of-position scenes.

And facts have proven that North American audiences really like this.

Anyway, the series "Shipwreck Island" became so unexpectedly popular.

Furthermore, even the works of Alexander Belyaev, the former Soviet science fiction master, have become popular in North America.

It is said that Universal Pictures even wants to adapt its masterpiece "The Head of Professor Towell" into a movie...
