No matter how much the domestic media complains about Shao Shuaijun, it can't change the embarrassment of "500 Days with Summer" failing to win the Oscar. Fortunately, Shao Shuaijun himself is very open-minded. Since the quarrel with the Baodao Golden Horse Awards and the Hong Kong Film Awards, Shao Shuaijun has
He also calmed down his temper.
The world does not revolve around one person. Winning an award or not is more like the icing on the cake. At Shao Shuaijun's current level, he hopes to win an award, but he also hopes to be recognized by the audience. A fresh and refreshing movie, unexpected
It took in a box office of 320 million U.S. dollars, which is already a success.
Although the Oscar did not give any nominations to "500 Days with Summer", it did send an invitation to Shao Shuaijun. It is hoped that Shao Shuaijun can serve as the award presenter at the 81st Oscar. Shao Shuaijun is ignored in terms of artistic achievements, but in terms of popularity, he must not
Don't look down on Shao Shuaijun.
Today's Shao Shuaijun is a giant in the entertainment industry. Wherever he is, ratings are inevitable.
No matter how low-key he is, the representative of the American dream is not a frivolous word. Just like Bill Gates is the most pompous and eye-catching person wherever he goes. The Oscars are still art first, and it does not mean that the organizer
Fang didn't want to use his brain to improve the ratings.
However, Shao Shuaijun simply refused because they arranged for Shao Shuaijun to present the award for Best Director.
Isn't this exposing scars on Shao Shuaijun?
So far, he has won only one Saturn Award for Best Director.
Therefore, this year’s Oscars ends here and has nothing to do with Shao Shuaijun anymore...
Drinking, visiting, and visiting relatives, this year passed in a lively manner. Because there was a special plane, Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu ran on both sides. They were in Luzhou today and went to Bingcheng tomorrow. They were very happy.
On the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, everyone who had a job went to work, and Shao Shuaijun and Li Xiuxiu also returned to Dream Chasing Entertainment Group in the capital.
Everything slowly entered the normal working state from the New Year atmosphere.
As soon as I arrived in Beijing, good news came from the United States: Summit Entertainment had reached an agreement with 20th Century Fox.
Summit Entertainment acquired all the rights to five movies in the old "Planet of the Apes" series (1968-1973) and one movie in the new "Planet of the Apes" series (2001) owned by Twentieth Century Fox for US$50 million.
And the TV version of "Planet of the Apes" (1974) 14 episodes, "Return to the Planet of the Apes" (1975) 13 episodes, all copyrights.
It also includes all copyrights to the original author Pierre Boulle's novel of the same name.
This was great news. Shao Shuaijun immediately issued an order to have Summit Entertainment’s editorial department write the latest prequel film of “Planet of the Apes” - “Rise of the Planet of the Apes” according to the outline he provided. Once the script is completed,
, it is estimated that the production team of "Avatar" has completed its work, and it is time to invite this team to use facial expression capture technology to shoot the movie.
Without facial expression capture technology, this movie depicting orangutans would never be able to surpass the old five-part film.
With this technology, this is a classic movie that conquered the world. After all, no matter how good the original version is, the image of the orangutan is really frustrating. It is basically just a human face with makeup and a layer of hair, which seriously lacks a sense of substitution.
Within a few days, Shao Shuaijun took the edited "Heartbeat" to Hollywood. The film editing was completed, and the post-production defects were also dealt with. Now, as long as the soundtrack is dubbed and the audio track is recorded in Hollywood, it can be released.
.
After the film was submitted for review, the PG rating was quickly determined.
This level in the American film classification is ordinary level. It is recommended to watch it with parents. Some scenes may make children uncomfortable. Instructional level, some content may not be suitable for children to watch-movies at this level are basically free of pornography, drug abuse and
Nudity scenes, if any, are brief, and scenes of horror and violence don't go beyond moderation.
After the classification, the release date is determined.
Although Shao Shuaijun made "500 Days with Summer" a hit at the box office, he can't guarantee that "Peng Rang's Heartbeat" will also be a hit. There really isn't much reason for this movie to be popular. After all, Summer is an adult worldview of love, and "Heartbeat" is just
It is unknown whether the "war" between children will attract people in this impetuous society.
In the end, Shao Shuaijun did not choose a good schedule, but put the movie in April to try the water in the off-season of spring. After all, the cost was only less than 10 million, and he could not lose much if he lost. After setting the schedule, the remaining
The next thing was promotion. There were no big names in the film, so they all went together to promote it.
The entire month of March is the promotion period for the movie, which will be screened on a small scale in major cities, or exhibited at exhibitions or various animation festivals and other programs.
In addition to Shao Shuaijun being busy with the promotion of "Heartbeat", he also has two more movies to worry about. The first one is "Slumdog Millionaire" which he returned from shooting in India and is in post-production in Hollywood.
Meng Jiahe's highlight "IMAX-3D Jade Pu Tuan".
"Slumdog Millionaire" is the highlight of Summit Entertainment this year. It may be scheduled to be released in September to compete for the Oscars. This kind of film that is destined to win awards has a very long screening period and can start competing for major awards in September, and then in one fell swoop
Attack Oskai and eventually gain both fame and fortune.
As for "IMAX-3D Yupu Tuan", it will be released first in Asia. When it premieres in Hong Kong, it will be arranged before May Day, so that it is convenient for mainland audiences to come to Hong Kong to watch the movie during the holidays. This is a film designed to test IMAX
-Feng Yue Movie, which is based on 3D technology, will be released around the world if the response is good.
As the producer of two films, Shao Shuaijun has the unshirkable responsibility to help arrange various matters for the films.
After complicated planning, the schedule was finally determined, and promotions began step by step. This year can be said to be the year with the largest number of movies released in the history of Summit Entertainment, and the work is also particularly busy.
In April, "Pumping Heart" will be released; in May, "IMAX-3D Jade Ball" may be released in North America; in June, "Dance My Life 3" will be released; in July, "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse"
will be released; in September, "Slumdog Millionaire" will be released; in November, "Sherlock Holmes" will be released; in December, "The Hangover 2" will be released.
Although there is only one "Eclipse" that is clearly a box office bomb, the other movies are also money-making machines. Add in the box office revenue of some co-productions, and it is very likely that the total box office this year will exceed 2 billion. This will
This is Summit Entertainment's achievement of breaking through the limits of independent film companies twice in a row and becoming one of the top film companies in Hollywood.
In March, the small-scale screening of "Heartbeat" ended.
After the screening, there were mixed reactions. Netizens who were lucky enough to watch it praised the film online, while people in the media had extreme reactions.
On Rotten Tomatoes, there are 72 movie reviews, 45 of which are passing, with a freshness rating of 62. Those who don’t like the movie say it’s a boring movie, while those who like it praise it as a re-washing of the soul. In a confrontation between two,
The freshness seems pitiful.
""Heartbeat" is a niche, special movie that puts you in a warm, interesting, and humane atmosphere, and gives you a movie that doesn't seem so uncomfortable until the end.
A reliable and beautiful story." - Gary Reggie of the Los Angeles Times gave it a score of 6/10, a tomato.
"A well-motivated family movie that has details about first love and life lessons is far better than a movie that puts some genius characters at the center of it." --Michael Osage, Variety
Levin gave it a rating of 3/4, a tomato.
""Heartbeat" is not unbearably incomplete, but it still filters cynicism about the world through a child's perspective." - Stephen Holden of The New York Times gave it 2.5/5
The rating is a piece of rotten vegetable leaf.
"A surprisingly articulate and beautifully told tale of young romance." - John Hanlon of Greater Hollywood gave it a perfect 5.0/5.
"I suppose some people may have a nostalgic response to this celebration of innocence and chastity, but I found it unbearable." - Mike McGranaghan of Aisle-Seat, giving it a 1/4 rating.
"The movie feels static, isn't it? A peep show of life in the 1960s rather than a living story. Shaw doesn't seem to understand America." -- Sean Minns of The Salt Lake Tribune
The score of 2.5/4 points is also rotten leaves.
"This is the best movie Shao Shuaijun has ever made." - James Boladini of the ReelViews website gave Bright Tomatoes a score of 3.5/4.

"This is such a well-done, sensitive, sweet, uplifting film. Very smart, quiet narrative. Absolutely beautiful ending that really brought out all my female emotions. I want to
Share on twitter." - Cynthia S gave it a 10.
""Heartbeat" is a lovely movie. Everyone misses that fiercely independent little girl, or the guy with blue eyes who lived across the street." - napierslogs also gave it 10 points.
"It's so good, the little deer bumped into each other." - SAO gave it 9 points.

Johnson Bonney gave 10 points.
"Some people are shallow, and some people are as good as they are. One day you will meet a person who is as gorgeous as a rainbow. When you meet this person, you will feel that other people are just clouds. I like this line." - —wordcofo also gave 10 points.
The media was opposed, and the audience was full of praise. No matter how it was evaluated, its popularity was already established, and "Heartbeat" did not bother to hold a premiere. It was directly released in 3,226 theaters in North America on Friday, April 3.
Three days later, the first weekend box office was released. In this off-season when only one movie, "Fast and Furious 4", was released, "Heartbeat" did not have the glory of Shao Shuaijun's previous movies. Not only did it fail to keep up with "Fast and Furious 4" 7095 The US$10,000 figure is not even as good as the US$32 million of the bad movie "Monsters vs. Aliens" in its second week of release.
It only grossed US$10.35 million at the box office, ranking third at the weekend box office.
It’s a hit but not a hit. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
