Chatty Hollywood

Yes, it’s not cool enough!

In fact, the failure of most commercial blockbusters can be summed up in these three words.

Just like many helplessness in life, it can also be summed up by the three words "no money".

Of course, this is only the final result.

There may actually be many underlying reasons.

However, those deep-seated reasons are more often just possible.

Whatever you do in this world, there will be elements that lead to success and elements that lead to failure.

How to achieve success despite being burdened with countless elements that may lead to failure is actually a kind of ability.

——The so-called miracle is created in this way.

And Hollywood is a place where miracles often happen. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Who told the film industry that there are many factors that cannot be seen or explained, and many times they can only be described as luck?

——In the cultural and entertainment industry, even if you put together the elements that make others successful, you may not be able to replicate the success.

On the contrary, it is the experience of failure that can be analyzed.

After Charlotte analyzed "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" in its original time and space, she realized that the multi-line narrative was not the real reason for the film's mediocre reputation.

In fact, generally speaking, movies with multi-line narratives may not do well at the box office, but their reputation is generally good.

——The audience sometimes may not be able to understand the plot of the movie in one go due to the multi-line narrative, but this does not prevent them from being aware of it and giving it high scores.

In this regard, "Pulp", "Two Smoking Barrels" and even "Crazy Stone" and "Crazy Racing" can be said to be positive examples. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

What really causes audiences to give low scores to movies with multi-line narratives is that the multi-line narratives are not told well, or in other words, the rhythm of the movie is unbalanced because of the multi-line narratives.

——The previous narrative is too boring, so that the climax is too late or too short.

Not to mention this in a movie theater, people will complain about it even in bed.

In Charlotte's original time and space, the problem with "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest" is exactly here -

Gore Verbinski indulges too much in the multi-layered narrative in this film.

So every time the movie reaches a place where the audience expects a big fight, it is always brushed aside and stopped abruptly.

This unpleasant feeling almost accompanies the audience throughout the movie. Coupled with some failures in the plot, it is naturally difficult to gain a good reputation. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

Charlotte has seen this very clearly after ten years of training as a director.

He knows that it is actually relatively difficult to change the plot direction of "Soul Coffin".

——After all, this is the second part of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" trilogy, which serves as a link between the past and the next. Many details are related to the third part, "At World's End", and cannot be easily changed.

However, using editing and his strong narrative ability, he can completely solve the problem of the climax in "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" that is always skipped.

Once that happens, the multi-threaded narrative turns from the film's flaw into its strength.

People who fully understand it will be amazed, and even people who don't understand it well will choose to watch it again without realizing it.

——Contribute a second movie ticket by the way. \u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

For this reason, a lot of effort needs to be put into editing and post-production.

In fact, "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" has been edited four times so far.

Each time, the change plan was huge;

Each time, Charlotte was not satisfied.

This left the editors at Spectre Studios scratching their heads.

They even almost rioted, but under Charlotte's power, they finally started the fifth edit honestly.

"Actually, there has been improvement every time during these edits."

When communicating on the phone with Philip Bierman, who is responsible for following up on the "Pirates of the Caribbean" project at Disney, Charlotte told the truth,

"Let them start over, just because I think they can do better."\u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

"..."

"Then you should tell them!"

Philip Biermann complained in his heart.

The reason why he made a special call to communicate with Charlotte about the editing was because the editing plan for "Soul's Chest" was rejected by Charlotte several times.

This made him a little worried, thinking that this "Soul Coffin" might not achieve the desired effect.

Who knows, this is because Charlotte's demands are too high.

"I can't tell them I'm satisfied!"

As if she could read Philip Biermann's thoughts, Charlotte explained,

"Sometimes, you can't tell the creators that they have actually passed - then they are likely to be satisfied with 60 points and no longer pursue higher levels; you can only always use a "you are all The "garbage" attitude puts pressure on them, and they will unknowingly push their limits under the influence of fear and pressure."\u00261t;i\u003e\u00261t;/i\u003e

"..."

——Devil!

At this moment, Philip Biermann only felt like this.

However, he was still a little worried——

"Aren't you afraid that the pressure you exert is too great and the editors won't be able to bear it?"

"do not worry!"

Charlotte seemed very confident;

"This is the advantage of having good results and high prestige in the past - as a top-level director, I only need to tell them, "You are a pile of garbage, but you can become more useful than ordinary garbage", and they will feel that they still have to work hard. motivation."

"Furthermore, those guys are not fools. Although they can't see through my mind, they can still feel the progress between several edited versions. In this way, they have a direction to work hard, and they can exert pressure on me." The pressure turned into motivation.”

"Yeah?"

Although Philip Biermann still had some doubts about this, he could only choose to believe Charlotte.

Who made Disney completely hand over the leadership of this series to Charlotte?

What's more, although Philip Biermann has some experience as a producer, he is not an expert like Charlotte who can go deep into the crew and understand the limits of everyone's abilities.

——This makes him far less straightforward than Charlotte in squeezing the potential of his employees.

Of course, this is also related to his lack of prestige.

"Success allows successful people to have more capital for success!"

Philip Biermann sighed secretly.

He originally wanted to persuade Charlotte to forget about the editing.

——In his opinion, the fourth edited version of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" is already quite good.

He didn't know why Charlotte was still not satisfied and wanted to improve even more, but now that he was talking, he couldn't say anything else.

"Let him continue according to his own ideas! Anyway, depending on what he means, there should be a clear direction. In this way, it doesn't matter if it takes more time."

At this time, Philip Biermann particularly felt the benefits of completing the trilogy of consecutive shootings...
