Chatty Hollywood

? Roger Ebert's film review represents the general attitude of North American film critics towards "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest".

Unlike "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" in Charlotte's original world, which messed up the multi-line narrative, in this world, because of Charlotte's modifications, both film critics and audiences have no interest in "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" The look and feel are very good.

And this is also a characteristic of multi-line narrative movies——

As long as it is played well, this type of movie will always have a good reputation among audiences, and film critics are generally relatively tolerant of this type of movie.

——Even if the movie does not show the "human nature" that film critics like most.

Unexpectedly, Mingli!

——This is often the most common impression everyone has of multi-line narrative movies.

After many attempts, Charlotte successfully found a combination with the strongest visual expression, the strongest plot rhythm, and the strongest emotional impact on the audience.

In this case, the audience will not only not realize it, but even if they understand it, they will still feel it is very powerful.

As many film critics have said, the released version of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" is a movie that audiences can immediately feel the director's skill after watching it.

Even in this movie, Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann, as the male and female protagonists, are very eye-catching, and Johnny Depp's Captain Jack Sparrow is even more charming.

——Yes, that’s the word!

——Captain Jack's unique gay charm is basically suitable for both men and women, so the word "all kinds of charm" is not wrong at all.

But even such a charming character cannot conceal the director's powerful skills.

In Charlotte's previous movies, this situation was not obvious——

In addition to the earliest "Fatal Turn" and "Happy Death Day", what he is better at is actually creating one or several interesting characters first, and then using various techniques to maximize the charm of the characters.

And its powerful narrative and control capabilities are more clearly shown behind the character's charm and the subtle moisturizing of things.

——The original "Sleepy Hollow", "Hell Detective" and even "Sherlock Holmes" are all of this type.

However,

In "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: Dead Man's Chest", due to the difficulty of multi-line narrative, Charlotte's abilities were fully displayed and finally fully demonstrated.

"This is a film where Charlotte Booth pushes her abilities to the limit!"

——Kenneth Turan, a famous film critic like Roger Ebert, commented this way.

Such high reviews from many film critics, as well as the movie's still-rapidly growing box office and equally high audience reputation, naturally made the chairman of Disney Pictures increasingly feel that it was a good idea to immediately prepare to film "Pirates of the Caribbean 4".

Especially after the box office of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" exceeded 300 million US dollars.

That was only the second weekend of the film's release...

**********

"If you don't respond to the people at Disney Pictures' proposal to film "Pirates of the Caribbean 4," I guess that "Smiling Mickey Mouse" will come to visit you soon!"

In the president's office of Spectre Studio, Alexis smiled and said to Charlotte.

——After all, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series is a joint project between Disney and Spectre Studios. Now that the second "Soul's Chest" is a hit, as a core employee of the studio, Miss Valkyrie is naturally happy about it.

In particular, the heroine of the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series is her sister Jenny.

——With the box office performance of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" exceeding 300 million US dollars in two weeks, Alexis felt that her sister Jenny might just prove herself in other movies. She has firmly established herself as a top-tier actress in Hollywood.

In this case, how could she be unhappy with only such a relative left?

She said to Charlotte a little excitedly,

"According to people from Disney, the other side of the Pacific originally planned to ban the introduction of "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" on the grounds of "promoting feudal superstition" because there were too many thrilling and fantasy elements in "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" - "

Speaking of this, Miss Valkyrie was a little aggrieved.

"What kind of ridiculous excuse is this!? Can't there be elements of fantasy in movies!? Didn't they also introduce the scene in "Titanic" where Kate Winslet was wearing nothing? !!?"

——Well, the reason of "feudal superstition" is indeed a bit nonsense in the eyes of Hollywood filmmakers.

However, Charlotte understood that this was just an expression of the free will of the big scissors.

Having said that, if the original "Titanic" hadn't been because of the love of a certain elder...

In short, unlike others, Charlotte was mentally prepared for the rejection of the introduction of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" from the other side of the Pacific.

——After all, he didn’t introduce it into his original time and space!

However, now listening to Alexis's words, things seem to have turned around again——

"Yes."

Miss Valkyrie nodded and confirmed Charlotte's guess.

"Perhaps because of the popularity of "Pirates of the Caribbean: Dead Man's Chest" in North America, people there seem to have loosened up a bit. But——"

Alexis smiled bitterly and said,

"They still felt that the subtitle "The Soul Coffin", especially the word "Coffin" in it, was very bad, and strongly requested us to change it. Therefore, at the suggestion of the other party, the people at Disney chose "Flying Holland" "People" is the new subtitle.

"...So, "Pirates of the Caribbean 2: The Flying Dutchman"!?"

"Yes."

Alexis nodded.

"..."

Charlotte felt that if "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" was really released on the other side of the Pacific with such a name, the people in the Central Plains would definitely go to heaven.

After all, over there, even the typical American-style KFC has gained a reputation as an "open and closed dish"...

**********

Of course, Charlotte won't give up on "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Flying Dutchman" just for such a ridiculous reason - well, that's the name! ——He will not give up on letting the movie be released on the other side because of this.

After all, that’s real money!

Even at this time, the film market on the other side of the Pacific has not yet completely exploded.

At this time, the film market there is not big, and coupled with the low share ratio...

But who would think that money is too much?

Moreover, you can also take the opportunity to occupy a position in advance, and wait until the other side gradually opens the market due to the TO agreement...

——That will be Hollywood’s number one customer in the future!

Although it may still be a little early, Charlotte feels that she can already start to prepare for a rainy day...
