Since he chose to take advantage of the situation to hype, it is normal to encounter abuse from fans. On the first day, there were not too many attacks on Francis Lawrence's blog. After the news spread widely on the second day, Matthew Na A large number of fans have directly swiped Francis Lawrence's blog. X23US. COM updates fastest

At the same time, the official website of "Alien vs. Predator 2" was directly paralyzed after the influx of a large number of Matthew's fans.

Although this has brought a lot of trouble to Francis Lawrence and "Alien vs. Predator 2", it cannot be denied that they borrowed Matthew's popularity to gain a certain amount of attention.

It is unavoidable for a popular movie star like Matthew to be popular, and he has been popular with others before.

It can be said that when you come out, you have to pay it back.

He's in Hollywood, and "Pirates of the Caribbean: Gathering Souls" has grossed more than a billion dollars worldwide, and it's hard not to be popular.

In fact, Johnny Depp's side is even more popular. Winona Ryder, who has been out of news in recent years, ran out of nowhere and frequently appeared in front of media reporters. how.

There are also a few less popular actresses who say they have an illegitimate child with Johnny Depp.

Actors who are outdated can awaken the memories of fans and the media; those who have not yet become famous can increase their fame.

Just like Francis Lawrence and "Alien vs. Predator 2", criticism, criticism and abuse are not terrible at all, but can bring heat. What is really terrible is that it is silent, and people don't bother to look at it.

Perhaps it was stimulated. Scarlett Johansson, who was no longer played by the first-line big productions after "Out of the Clone Island", also stood up. On a talk show, he talked a lot about what he called Matthew. short-lived romance.

"We didn't date for a long time, but it was blazing like a flame."

It was as if she and Matthew didn't have a few night stands, but actually had a relationship.

Speaking of which, like Matthew and Johnny Depp, it is not the most serious, but the most serious is the film "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Gathering Soul" itself.

"...The plot of this film is more than 80% similar to the script I wrote 18 years ago.

At the time, I was working on the set of The Adventures of Oliver, which was owned by Disney Pictures, and circulated the script within Disney Pictures. "

On the nbc TV station, a screenwriter in his fifties who has no name, accompanied by a lawyer, faced the camera of reporters and denounced Disney Pictures and Jerry Bruckheimer hoarsely.

"I have decided to formally sue Disney Pictures to stop their infringement..."

Seeing this, Matthew turned off the TV and shook his head. Behind every Hollywood movie that sells well at the box office, there are always several writers and screenwriters whose scripts or ideas have been stolen by the crew.

It's almost become a Hollywood formula.

It's good to say that the adaptation works, after all, there are original books there, like original movies, once the box office hits, this situation will basically occur.

"Titanic" encountered it, "Saving Private Ryan" encountered it, "Gladiator" encountered it...

Now that it's Pirates of the Caribbean: Death Man's turn, there's really nothing surprising about it.

In this part of America, copyright lawsuits can be pretty annoying at times.

The main reason is that the box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Gathering Souls" is too high, so high that too many people are envious and jealous, but they can't get a share of it.

Halfway through August, the film has grossed more than $450 million at the North American box office, and the numbers continue to build.

In addition, after the film's global box office exceeded one billion US dollars, it is also approaching the $1.1 billion mark, pointing directly to the second place in the global box office total list of "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King".

Matthew didn't know what the North American box office and global box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Gathering Souls" was, but it felt that it should not be so high.

If his feelings are accurate, the chemistry between him and Johnny Depp in the film plays a huge role.

Thinking about whether or not there is any, sitting on the sofa in the living room, Matthew didn't wait long, Helen Herman and Amanda walked in unhurriedly, and the two handed over their coats to the housekeeper at the door.

"Helen! Amanda!" Matthew raised his hand and greeted, "come here and sit."

After Helen Herman and Amanda came over, they sat on the two single sofas opposite.

Matthew asked, "Tea or coffee?"

"Coffee, thanks," Helen Herman said.

Amanda tidied up her short blond hair that was ruffled by the wind, and said, "Green tea, the kind you often drink, it tastes very good."

Matthew waved to the butler, and the butler immediately asked people to prepare.

"Do you like it?" Matthew asked Amanda. "Would you like me to have someone buy a few more packs next time?"

Amanda was also not polite to Matthew, and said, "Okay, buy more, I'll go back to New York to give them away."

Hearing what she said, Matthew wrote down the incident. The green tea he drank was purchased from the other side of the street, from the other side of the Pacific Ocean. Tea is like food. Every region, different group of people and individuals, have With different tastes, Helen Herman couldn't get used to green tea, just like he couldn't enjoy coffee.

The maid brought green tea and coffee at this time, and Amanda took a sip of the tea and said, "That's what it tastes like. It tastes better than black tea, and is more fragrant than Indian tea."

Helen Herman put down the coffee cup and ignored Amanda. She originally wanted to come over by herself, but Amanda was going to see her new home in Beverly Hills today, so she simply came to Horner Manor together.

"I went to see the house with Amanda today." She glanced at Matthew. "I've got a few things to tell you."

This is the weekend, and Matthew is rarely free, but Helen Herman came to him, and he couldn't turn him away.

Helen Herman put one hand on the arm of the sofa and said, "My agent and Johnny Depp and Keira Knightley reached an agreement with Disney yesterday, and on 'The End of the World', Your dividends will increase to varying degrees."

When it comes to money, Matthew immediately came to his senses. He really had no choice. When he lived on the other side of the Pacific Ocean in the past, the hard life made him poor and scared. Your bank password manages three-digit deposits with two digits after the decimal point.

"Disney Pictures has made concessions in terms of box office share." Helen Herman looked calm, "In terms of global box office revenue, Johnny Depp has increased by 0.7%, and you have increased by 0%. Five, Keira Knightley increased 0.3 percent."

Before Matthew said anything, Amanda preemptively said, "0.5%? If "The End of the World" has a global box office of one billion dollars, isn't it a five million dollar share?"

She looked at Matthew with envy, "I feel that it's so easy for you to make money now. Sitting at home and waiting, Helen can use your name to grab a lot of money from outside."

"I survived it too." Matthew shrugged, "It's not like you haven't seen me when I was so poor that I couldn't even afford to eat."

"Yeah." Amanda nodded.

Helen Herman interrupted the two and continued, "Weinstein Pictures and Harvey Weinstein have sent you another role offer, this time it's not Quentin Tarantino's Noir The film, but a purely commercial film, is an anime adaptation of the live-action version of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, with the heroine played by Sarah Michelle Gellar.”

Hearing Weinstein Pictures and Harvey Weinstein, Matthew immediately thought of that domineering face, without even thinking about it, and said directly, "You refuse for me, there will be Weinstein Pictures or Harvey Weinstein in the future. Don't tell me any more invitations from V. Weinstein, reject them all."

Although he doesn't want to offend the bigwig in the circle, he is not interested in Oscar, and there is no need to please Harvey Weinstein.

Helen-Hellman's superstar project for Matthew, which didn't include independent films at all, said immediately, "I see." She took a sip from her coffee cup, and then said, "The third thing, 'St. "Bada Three Hundred Warriors" will soon enter an intensive publicity period, and when the film's poster and promotional video are officially released, I will seek Armani's men's underwear endorsement for you."

"Cough..." Amanda coughed in a low voice, as if thinking of some rumors about Matthew.

"Panties?" Matthew was a little puzzled.

After all, according to the standard of the past, no normal person has nothing to endorse underwear.

"Don't underestimate underwear, big brand underwear is also a high-end endorsement." Helen Herman seemed to know what he was thinking, saying, "Like George Clooney, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Tom Cruise And so on, all of you have endorsed or are currently endorsement of luxury brand men's underwear series. Don't underestimate this endorsement, you have many competitors, each of which is quite strong, such as football superstar David Beckham."

Speaking of which, she explained in detail, "The competition for the endorsement of ready-to-wear luxury brands is very fierce, and there is no suitable vacancy for the time being. Armani's underwear endorsement is an opportunity. As long as the "Spartan Three Hundred Warriors" movie has a good response, we will win The chance of this endorsement is still very high, and then based on this, we will seek endorsement contracts for other Armani men's products."

Matthew understood, this is to use red pants to win the endorsement of luxury brand underwear.

"Okay." He nodded in response, "You can do it specifically."

Helen Herman added, "Didn't you say last time that you saw Beckham himself at Tom Cruise's party, what kind of person is he?"

"Just a few words of greetings." Matthew shook his head slowly, "I don't know."

Helen Herman didn't ask any more questions, and planned to go back to find someone to know about this competitor. He kept talking and continued, "The last thing, Rolex reminds you, the US Open is coming soon."
