Ace Hollywood - Chapter 450

“Juno” is set for December 5th, but will premiere at the Toronto International Film Festival on September 8th. 【

As far as North America is concerned, Toronto is actually much more important than the top three in Europe. In many cases, the popularity of a film in Toronto often indicates whether it can get more box office in North America.

Ellen Page, Michael Serra, Jason Reitman…the unknown people in the water.

In addition, Daniel himself has never spoken about this project, so it has not received more attention. It only involves the subject of teenage pregnancy. It is somewhat sensitive, but compared to many small productions that take the lead, this is more sensitive. Degree is nothing.

Therefore, when this work sparked discussions in Toronto, the American media was caught off guard.

Local newspapers such as the Vancouver Sun and Toronto Star, and even The Globe and Mail, a new national newspaper, reported more detailed reports and more positive attitudes.

“I think I’m about to be attracted by that girl who is a little tricky and a little cool.”

“Despite the seriousness of the subject matter, the difficulties faced by the young protagonist were enormous. But the extraordinary work of the director and the lead actors kept the whole story from basking in the clichéd restlessness. Juno used her own cool Strong and powerful, it sets the tone for the story – Ellen Page, yes, that name, the image of Juno, will make her the new Hollywood star.”

“An unexpected, interesting, and thought-provoking girl’s story – from the screenwriter, director, to starring, they are all talented. Of course, there may be an investor, and that is Daniel Sandler.”

“I had to attend the premiere of “Juno” because I missed another work. Otherwise, the boss will probably let me go. But what I didn’t expect is that this small-budget teenage film shot in Vancouver is so different. Usually, I always have a tumbling mood inside me, but the smile is uncontrollable. My love for Juno is so straightforward, yes. She’s such a cool girl to love.

I was just surprised by my good luck, that I could come across such a good movie when I walked into the premiere by accident. However, when I realized that the image in the title of the movie belongs to dd film, I felt a sudden realization. This turned out to be invested in by Daniel Sandler, and I must say, he has contributed another great work to everyone. “

This Canadian tabloid reporter has rarely gained a lot of attention on f2f, along with the newspaper she works for. Because what happened was really weird. Because I missed a certain movie, I had to watch “Juno” in order to meet the boss, and I came across one of the most discussed films at this Toronto Film Festival.

After the Canadian media clamored for a while, the American media quickly followed.

To be honest, from the actors to the directors, there is nothing worth reporting, and in the end they had to focus on the subject-teenage pregnancy.

This is an easy question to debate.

Abortion or anti-abortion. This is a big problem in the US.

The publicity period for “Juno” also came, for this kind of controversy. dd film industry is happy to see it. Although this will definitely offend some people, the problem will not be too big, because Juno still gave birth to the child after all. During the whole process, her parents are quite reliable, and she herself is impeccable – she is always strong . Whether it’s seducing Brick, throwing Brick, deciding whether to have a baby, finding an adoptive family for the child, etc., this is in line with the expectations of young people.

When touching sensitive topics. Jason’s choice is different from that of the sixth generation of Chinese directors. What Jason created is still a beautiful American dream – Juno Niu’s righteousness, her family’s tolerance to her, she can decide everything by herself, etc. These things are not so taken for granted. Now the Republican Party is in power in the United States, which is known for being conservative. Few families are really so reassured about their underage daughters.

Chinese directors, on the other hand, like to dig until they are dripping with flesh and blood, and see pus and rotten wounds. This is actually a not very clever way, and it is difficult to gain recognition.

……

At the beginning of September, the news hotspot related to Daniel was by no means “Juno”.

It’s the acquisition of Marvel!

After several rounds of contact between dd Pictures and Marvel, the two sides agreed to start discussions on this issue – from the perspective of Marvel’s shareholders, being able to sell Marvel is a choice. After all, none of them are obsessed with the company. Professionals, capital is what they are after, since someone is willing to buy, especially now that Marvel is in debt.

Marvel’s sales channel itself is getting narrower and narrower, and the income is getting lower and lower. A large number of peripheral companies also have wins and losses. Marvel’s business is not so smooth, and it is of course one of the options to be able to sell. And executives including Kevin and Avi have nothing to resist when the company will be sold to dd Pictures. Everyone can see the glory of MGM today.

A number of films such as “Black Swan”, “High School Musical 2”, “Dance Out of My Life”, and “My Big Gay Wedding” in cooperation with dd Films have achieved good box office results, continuing the good momentum of last year. .

Of course, this does not mean that the transaction between the two parties will be concluded soon.

The news came out before the formal negotiations started, and it was almost certainly done by people on the Marvel board of directors, to attract more buyers and get a higher price, which is their natural purpose.

The reaction from all walks of life in Hollywood was very violent.

“After digesting MGM, Daniel turned his attention to Marvel, a comics company with many superhero images. Obviously, DD Pictures and Daniel are optimistic about superheroes, even if “The Incredible Hulk” loses Great, but the success of Spider-Man 3 may still inspire Daniel to make a decision.”

“Let’s see ~www.mtlnovel.com~ Disney has dealt with Miramax, acquired Pixar in the past two years, and Robert Iger has begun to take a look at Disney’s layout. Then look at Daniel Sandler, dd Pictures, MGM Pictures, then dd Animation and Weta Digital, and now they have reached out to Marvel. His layout format is no less than that of Disney Group – in fact, it has Plutos Investment DD Pictures, backed by the company, is indeed stronger than Disney. Realizing this, it’s hard to believe, but it’s the fact that both parties have huge wealth outside of movies, but obviously, dd Pictures can get from the consortium and other areas of the system receive more support.

Maybe this is the future direction of Hollywood, I wouldn’t be surprised if Daniel buys cbs or something. “

The discussions surrounding the acquisition are broad and intense.

Disney’s Robert Iger, who was mentioned by the media, may have more complicated feelings in his heart. As for Marvel, Disney has just started to study whether to include it in the bag. When it recently flopped on The Incredible Hulk, it still hampered Disney’s work a bit. Although Disney is more optimistic about Iron Man, Thor and Captain America in the first batch of heroes, except for Hulk, they also have a positive view on “The Incredible Hulk” before.

The fact gave them a slap and made them have to be more cautious.

As a result, at this stall, “old rival” Daniel **** took action! (To be continued.)
