& NBC Rosarito is located in Baja California, Mexico. It is a seaside town less than twenty kilometers away from the border. The main scene of Titanic, shoots, is here. br> & NBC Although Firefly's Playa Vista studio base has the most advanced shoots facilities, Titanic's shoots requires a large site, which is not possible in the Los Angeles area. In the film preparation stage, Cameron, under the introduction of his friend Mexico Director Jill Mo del Toro, decided to move the film shoots to Mexico, and bought a 16-hectare land near Rosarito to build a studio.
& NBC just after the new year, perhaps the various commercial miracles of the Firefly system have caused many people to have aesthetic fatigue and rebellious psychology. When the news of the Titanic project getting out of control came out, the media immediately became lively.
& NBC The cost of film production has risen rapidly in recent years, but there are still a handful of movies with annual budgets exceeding 60 million USD. Titanic only completed 50% of the previous shoots progress and burned 60 million USD. It can be imagined that if Firefly Group does not do it immediately Making certain choices, if you want to complete this movie, the production cost of the movie may even exceed Waterworld, which cost 170 million USD last year, and Waterworld has also proved to many people that a movie that is out of control during the production period, Box Office may be successful Sex is very slim.
& NBC although knowing the deep background of Firefly Group, even if a loss of 200 million USD in a project, it is absolutely impossible to face bankruptcy like other Film Studio, but the Titanic project is out of control and finally proves to some people that Firefly is not so A company so powerful, after two years of unprecedented scenery, also began to encounter inevitable failures, and such failures seemed to be so menacing from the beginning.
& NBC Firefly originally set the schedule for Titanic to be the model of the trilogy of 1 island and Titanic. However, immediately after the news of the Titanic project out of control, several Film Studios were eager to move. Paramount even apparently intentionally moved The original Disney Hand-Drawn Animation team first part, which has been renamed Paramount Animation Studio, was scheduled for June 28th. After hesitating for a few days, Universal Pictures also released news that it planned to raise the The Mummy2 originally scheduled in mid-July to June. 21st.
& NBC was the best time for the summer movie release in June. It has been occupied by Firefly in the past few years. Although several other majors have tried many times and want to regain the initiative of this prime time period, they all failed. end.
& NBC But this year, some people seem to have finally found a good opportunity to break the Firefly monopoly. The thoughts of several Film Studio executives are not difficult to understand. With the production progress of Titanic, if Firefly wants to force the deadline, the quality of the movie can not be guaranteed. If Firefly is allowed to keep Cameron to maintain the current production rhythm, then Titanic is absolutely impossible in the summer file. Released. According to the Firefly Group film list, there is no film that can replace the position of Titanic. Therefore, no matter what kind of result, Firefly will be destined to lose the golden period of Box Office from the end of June to the beginning of July.
& NBC "according to Firefly's film list of the last two years, there is no film suitable for filling the vacant period of Titanic. However, at the last meeting, everyone felt that a romantic or comedy film was the most Good choice, but according to the contract with the original one, Titanic has scheduled 3,000 premiere screens. This scale of opening is not something that can be filled by any ordinary love movie, "the black Chevrolet sits and looks out the window Eric of the desert scenery said.
& NBC on five black cars, I heard that Eric is going to the Rosarito studio in Mexico, whether it is the Drew around me or the Joanna far away from New York, or even a group of senior officials from Firefly Group, the first suggestion is not to go. After discovering that it couldn't be stopped, everyone's next day's suggestion was to bring bodyguards and bring a lot of bodyguards.
& NBC now has the current team, each car seats five people, except for Eric and Kelly, the security team of Eric basically followed.
& NBC United States people ’s impression of Mexico is basically drug dealers except for cheap labor. The border between the two countries is also the most rampant criminal activity. It can only be described by a garbled character. Therefore, although it feels that some teachers are moving, Eric has not rejected this arrangement.
& NBC Kelly finished, noticed that Eric seemed a little absent-minded, and reminded him softly.
& NBC Eric came back and asked, "Oh, where did you talk about?"
& NBC Kelly patiently repeated the words just now.
& NBC Kelly's meaning is very obvious. Ordinary comedy and love movies can't bear the scale of 3,000 screens, but it is different if he personally directed the film. It is well known that after the debut of Eric shoots Several global blockbuster movies, from Home Alone to Pretty Woman Pretty Girls, are both of these types.
& NBC "I know what you mean," smiled, Eric said: "However, you know how busy I am now, maybe you will have to go to Australia next, without seeing the progress of The Matrix production. Don't worry, then, according to this schedule, maybe I won't be able to spare my energy until Oscar. After Oscar, Casino Royale also needs to enter formal preparations. "
& NBC as an assistant of Eric, Kelly is much more familiar with his work arrangements than the senior executives of Firefly Group. She also knows that Eric ca n’t make time to catch a shoots movie before Casino Royale. Other people ’s thoughts no longer mention this suggestion, saying: "Eric, how do you plan to arrange the next thing for Titanic?"
& NBC "What is the arrangement?" Eric asked doubtfully.
& NBC Kelly thought about it and said, "If you want to complete the production of this film, at least 200 million USD is required according to the progress of Cameron, plus the later announcement budget, according to the previous Box Office score of Cameron, Firefly is basically no longer there. The hope of returning to the original, and the rest is just a question of how much loss. I think that it is perhaps the best way to stop the loss by stopping the project decisively? "
& NBC ’s suggestion for female assistants is actually the thought of many people. Even the media has begun to circulate this point of view. Immediately stop the project. With the accumulated materials, a little tinkering, maybe you can make a movie. In the future, some losses can be recovered.
& NBC However, even if Titanic cannot achieve the success of the original time and space, Eric does not intend to do so. As a previous life memorable movie Box Office miracle, Eric would also like to see, this life, this film can rush to To what degree.
& NBC Eric could not directly explain his thoughts to Kelly, just joking: "If you stop directly, it is estimated that Jim will kill me."
& NBC "You ..." Kelly smiled and said, "I found that you seem to have high expectations for this film."
& NBC Eric turned his head and looked at the elegant face of the female assistant white and asked, "Is it obvious?"
& NBC Kelly cheeks flushed, whispered: "I probably can see your mind. Otherwise, um, otherwise you won't come to Mexico in person."
& NBC looked at the female assistant looking for reasons indiscriminately. Eric laughed, and did n’t want to make Kelly too embarrassed.
& NBC team crossed the border, and after another half-hour journey to Rosarito, this is a border town of more than ten kilometers.
& NBC However, the Titanic studio was not in town, and the team continued to walk south for about five kilometers before reaching its destination.
& NBC A large open space near the sea by the road. At this time, a simple fence was enclosed. Sitting in the car, Eric could see the facilities such as the studio inside the fence.
& NBC At this time, there are still many people holding camera outside the shoots base, apparently because of a series of recent media news reporters.
& NBC noticed that the five luxury reporters were keenly aware of what they were, and all of them surrounded them, and the flashlights were also crazy. Several bold reporters even knocked on the window, trying to irritate people to get shoots opportunity.
& NBC Fortunately, the five cars are exactly the same. The reporters did not find an accurate target. Eric just sat quietly in his car, waiting for the bodyguard on the first car to negotiate with the guard, and then five cars were among the reporters. In disappointment, he drove into the studio in turn.
& NBC vehicles were parked in the parking lot, Eric had just got off the car, Titanic producer Jon Randall ushered in with two staff members, and hugged with Eric, enthusiastically said: "Eric, I ’m so glad you came here. "
& NBC Eric haha smiled and said: "I just don't know if Jim wants me to come over."
& NBC Jon Randall shook hands with Kelly, and when he heard the words Eric, his face suddenly felt bitter and shook his head. He said, "In short, it ’s not bad for you to come and see."
& NBC "Well," Eric nodded and said, "Right, what about Jim?"
& NBC "Oh, everyone is in shoots, you come with me, on the big ship," Jon Randall said, pointing away, and walked with Eric.
& NBC left the parking lot, Eric looked at the surroundings, and there were three large studios standing in the studio, busy staff, props and instruments stacked everywhere, several large cisterns, and a hanging water tank being built , The hundreds of meters long shoots track, and the Titanic giant ship standing on the beach built according to the one-to-one model ...
& NBC just look at these, how sadly just knows Cameron burned money.
& NBC even more, Eric remembers that half of the Titanic duplicated models were built in the original time and space. At that time, in order not to wear the models in front of the camera, a lot of special props and shoots skills were used, but at this time, the big ship in front of me The model is complete.
& NBC Although Eric just looked around and said nothing, Jon Randall was already nervous unconsciously.
& NBC crew is now in a bow scene of shoots, Eric led by Jon Randall, climbed the bow along the ladder and found that many people were there, even the roar of Cameron was heard from afar .
& NBC At this time, there are still many people holding photos of camera outside the shoots base, apparently because of a series of recent media reports.
& NBC noticed that the five luxury reporters were keenly aware of what they were, and all of them surrounded them, and the flashlights were also crazy. Several bold reporters even knocked on the car windows, trying to irritate people to get shoots opportunity.
