Across America, Starting with the Boxing Champion Chapter 519

Chapter 519 Annual Movie Summary

The film awards have been awarded, followed by the television awards.

"Are you disappointed that you didn't win the award?"

Ivaca asked softly at the award ceremony.

"No, the opponents this time are too strong, it's only reasonable that we didn't win the award."

Link saw Joaquin Phoenix next door, Daniel Day-Lewis not far away, as well as Richard Gere and Denzel Washington. All of these people were veteran actors. If he wanted to steal it from them, Passing the trophy is extremely difficult.

So he didn't have high hopes before the awards ceremony.

"Link, I think you did a good job."

Jennifer Lawrence laughed next to her.

"Then I'll try to get it next time."

Link laughed.

"It's impossible. You didn't make any sacrifices in making the movie. You didn't become ugly or fat. You are far worse than Mr. Lewis and Joaquin. I think you have a lot of merit in getting a Golden Globe nomination. ”

Taylor said unceremoniously.

Link glanced at her helplessly, "Anyway, I'm better at acting than you. I won the Best Actor Award at the Berlin Film Festival and was nominated for Best Actor at the Golden Globe Awards twice. There is no doubt that I am a good actor. ”

"Ha, it's so funny. Your performance in "Midnight in Paris" was called a male vase, and in "Buried Alive", all the selling points were your face and figure. You also have the nerve to say that you are a good actor. ? I think your several nominations are watery."

Taylor choked.

Link shook his head, "Jennifer, you are a professional actor. How would you evaluate my acting skills in "Buried Alive"?"

"great!"

Jennifer covered her mouth and chuckled, "Taylor, Link is a talented actor. His performance is very contagious and empathetic. It's really good."

"You don't think you have to become ugly, fat and **** to be considered good at acting, do you?"

Link said with a proud smile.

Taylor wrinkled the bridge of his nose and tilted his head with a slight hum.

In the middle, Ivaca smiled slightly, pulled Taylor and said: "Don't argue with Link, he is very thick-skinned. Even if you say that his acting skills are terrible, he will not blush. You might as well say that he will never win an Oscar. This There was absolutely no way he could refute it.”

"Forever? What you said is too absolute."

Link retorted.

"It's not absolute at all. An actor as good as Leonardo can't get it, and it's even less possible for you."

Taylor said defiantly.

"I won't argue with you. I will show off to you when I get the Oscar statuette in the future."

Link clapped his hands for the winning actor, acting like a good man who doesn't fight with women.

Taylor rolled her eyes at him and pulled Ivaca to whisper.

Not far away, Leonardo was watching Link's side at all times while watching the award ceremony.

At first, I saw that the organizer had arranged Link with Ivaca, Taylor, and Jennifer. He and the people around him were ready to watch the show and see how they got along with each other and whether it would be awkward.

After watching it for a while, I was surprised to find that not only were they not embarrassed, but they could chat together as if they were friends.

"How is this possible, Joaquin, how did Link do it?"

Leonardo asked in disbelief.

"What?"

Joaquin Phoenix asked over his shoulder.

"Look at Link, Ivaca is his wife, Taylor is his ex-girlfriend, and Jennifer is his rumored girlfriend. Not only do they not fight when they sit together, but they also talk very affectionately. How is this possible? ?

Women are all jealous species, not to mention that Ivaca, Taylor, and Jennifer are all extremely excellent women. How can they live in peace together? "

Leonardo asked.

Joaquin Phoenix glanced at Link's table next door, shrugged his shoulders and said, "You're giving me a hard time, and I don't know why."

"Could it be that Link is too charming? Are the girls willing to live in peace for him?"

Woody Harrelson said.

He was nominated for best actor this year for the TV movie "Game Change."

"It's impossible. I've tried it, but it's hard to do. Why can he do it?"

Leonardo shook his head in disapproval.

When he was dating Gisele Bundchen, he was also secretly dating Czech supermodels Eva Herzgova and Paris Hilton. Later, Bundchen discovered that he was dating. Bundchen proposed breaking up, but he refused and tried to stay with her many times. He also promised not to cheat on her again, but Bundchen still broke up with him.

After suffering this loss, he only picked up one girl at a time and broke up with her every once in a while, so he didn't appear in the Shura field.

But now Link is sitting next to the strong woman Ivaca, the country music queen Taylor, and the Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence, a super Shura field.

Faced with such three powerful women, Link was still able to handle them with ease.

Leonardo felt it was very unfair.

"Maybe Link has some secrets on this kind of thing. If you want to know, you can ask him for advice."

joked Woody Harrelson.

Leonardo thought, this is a good idea.

Bang bang bang!

The last Golden Globe Lifetime Achievement Award was awarded to the famous actor Jodie Foster, and there was a burst of warm applause.

After the Lifetime Achievement Award, the award ceremony came to an end and we started eating, drinking and chatting.

Leonardo wanted to go to Link to talk about picking up girls, but when he got up, he found that many people came to Link to say hello.

Amy Adams, Anne Hathaway, Naomi Watts, Emily Blunt, Jessica Alba, Nicole Kidman and other beautiful actresses, as well as some actors, directors, screenwriters, producers The film crew all took the initiative to come to Link's side.

People who know him congratulate Link, and those who don't know him introduce themselves first and then hand over their business cards. Link was surrounded by an endless stream of people, and he seemed to be the focus of the scene.

Leonardo waited for a while but didn't find an opportunity, so he could only suppress the matter and talk about it later when playing cards.

"Hello, Mr. Baker, I'm your fan."

"Link, congratulations, the movie award tonight was almost won by your Lions Gate."

"Mr. Baker, Ms. Tomp, I am Daniel Katz, CEO of A24 Pictures. I am very happy to see you here."

"Hello!"

After the awards ceremony, due to Lionsgate's outstanding performance at the awards ceremony, Link and Iwaka also became the targets of many filmmakers.

Link responded politely to those who came to say hello, and he didn't mind chatting a little more with people he was interested in, such as Daniel Katz, CEO of A24 Films, brought by Megan Ellison.

The film company was founded last year by Daniel Katz, David Finkel and John Hodges.

Because it is a new company, it currently has little reputation, but starting from this year, it has become more and more famous in the independent film circle and has successively released many high-quality films.

For example, the Oscar-winning film "Moonlight", "Under the Skin" in which Scarlett Johansson was naked, last year's "Spring Breakers" with a small round face, and "The Universe", "Lady Bird", "Ex Machina" and " "Hereditary", "A Midsummer Night's Terror", etc.

Considered an upstart in the independent film industry after Weinstein Films.

When he met Daniel Katz, the boss of A24, Link naturally wanted to chat a little more to facilitate future cooperation.

Currently, Lionsgate's allies in the independent film industry include Palm Beach Pictures, Annapurna Pictures, Skydance Pictures, Summit Entertainment, and Brad Pitt's Plan B.

With more allies, Lionsgate's development will be smoother.

After the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony, the media summarized and reported on the awards of this year's Golden Globe Awards.

Movies released by Lionsgate Pictures were nominated for 5 out of 18, and won 5 out of 14 movie awards, more than one-third, making it undoubtedly the biggest winner at this year's Golden Globe Awards.

"Escape from Tehran" was nominated 3 out of 5 times and became the most awarded film at this year's Golden Globe Awards.

"Les Misérables" ranked second out of 5.

Jessica Chastain won the Best Actress Award, Daniel Day-Lewis won the Best Actor Award again, Link and Taylor failed to compete for the Best Original Song Award, Adele won the award, etc., which also became the The Golden Globe Awards are quite interesting news.

The most exciting news at this year's Golden Globe Awards was that Ivaca, Taylor, and Jennifer Lawrence sat at the same table at the award ceremony and had a pleasant chat.

This situation cannot help but attract the attention of the outside world.

Everyone was talking about the relationship between the three people. Some said that Link still maintained an ambiguous relationship with Taylor and Jennifer.

Some said that several people reached a secret agreement to divide Link equally, and some netizens were so imaginative that they made all kinds of speculations about Link engaging in polygamy.

In this regard, Jennifer's agent publicly stated that Jennifer is good friends with Taylor and Ivaca, and there is no messy relationship. The outside world is asked not to make random speculations.

Taylor's agent Emily also said in the interview that Taylor and Link are fulfilling their responsibilities as parents and striving to create a loving growth environment for their children.

After the media and netizens discussed it for a period of time, they could not find any fresh material, and their attention turned to other entertainment gossip.

For example, Britney Spears announced her breakup with her agent and fiancé, and supermodel Miranda Kerr and Orlando Bloom encountered a marital crisis.

After the Golden Globe Awards, all the films that received nominations and awards performed well at the box office, and several Lionsgate films in theaters also experienced box office fluctuations.

Three days after the Golden Globe Awards, the North American box office of "Escape from Tehran" surged by 12 million US dollars, and the current cumulative box office is 118 million US dollars. The overseas box office increased by more than 15 million, reaching a total of 81.3 million US dollars.

The total box office is about to exceed 200 million.

After two weeks of screenings, "The Hunt for Bin Laden" has expanded to 2,937 theaters. The current cumulative box office in North America is 29.91 million U.S. dollars. The box office data is growing well, and there is great hope to exceed 100 million.

More than a month after "Beasts of the Southern Wild" was released, the box office performance increased by another 3.37 million US dollars. The current North American box office is 15.73 million US dollars and the overseas box office is 6.67 million US dollars.

For the production cost of 1.2 million, the revenue ratio is very impressive.

There are also movies such as "The Vow", "Buried Alive", "The Master" and "The Hunger Games", which also received a lot of box office in the theaters where they were re-released.

It is expected to earn some more at the box office around the time of the Academy Awards in February.

In addition, the global box office of "The Twilight Saga" has exceeded 800 million US dollars, temporarily ranking sixth among all movies released last year.

Ranking first is "Avengers" with a global box office of 1.58 billion.

In the North American box office ranking list, films such as "Escape from Tehran", "The Hunt for Bin Laden", "Buried Alive", "Invasion of Evil" and "The Witness Protection Program" also entered the top 50.

Overall, among the movies released by Lionsgate Pictures last year, only two lost money, "The Golden Prince" and "The Master." Fortunately, the losses were not large, totaling less than 10 million.

The total box office of the 20 movies released by Lionsgate last year in North America is US$1.48 billion, while the total box office of the North American film market last year was US$10.8 billion, an increase of 5% over last year.

Among them, Sony-Columbia Pictures ranked first in the total box office in the North American market with US$1.77 billion and a share of 17.1%.

Disney ranked second with 1.52 billion and 14.6% share.

Lionsgate Pictures ranked third with a share of 14.2%, surpassing Warner Bros., Universal Pictures, 20th Century Fox, and Paramount Pictures.

Despite being in third place, Lionsgate has also set a number of new records and is the best result an independent film company has achieved in the North American film market in the past fifty years.

In other respects, Summit Entertainment, Relativity Pictures, and Weinstein Pictures also entered the top ten, but they are far from comparable to Lions Gate.

Lionsgate Pictures is also considered by the media to be one of the giants in the film industry.
