Hollywood What If Chapter 312

  Since Harry Potter had a loyal fan base all over North America, it was obvious that many people wao see the sequel. Especially sihe first movie was a huge success, grossing 974 million at the box offibsp;

  Realizing the potential of this franchise, Warner Brothers decided to help J.K. Rowling expand the influence of Harry Potter. The novels were published in many tries and promoted in front of many bookstores.

  This was one of the methods to ehat the Harry Potter franchise would be successful at the box office. Warner Brothers was not cheap when it came to iing in the sed film.

  Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets cost 100 million.

  The release date arrived and many theaters were filled with moviegoers. Most of them were young people who had seen the first movie or read the novels.

  At that time (2002), J.K. Rowling had already written 4 novels and this was the foundation of the success of the franchise, a plete source material to use... Unlike some authors who could not finish their novels.

  Gee R.R. Martin failed to finish A Song of Id Fire befame of Thrones season 8 ended... Probably one of the reasons why the st season was disappointing was that there was no source material to use.

  So for the writers who were struggling to finish their novels, they had to stop procrastinating and keep writing, no matter how shitty the writing was. Because that was the only way to finish their o keep writing.

  On November 15, 2002, Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets grossed 29.63 million in just 24 hours.

  Audiences didn't leave the theaters disappoihe sed film did well. There were a lot of cuts sihe movie could not include all the tent of the book, but it was still eaining.

  Word of mouth was iial as many people reehe movie to their friends and family.

  The first weekend of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets ended with 88.35 million. An amazing performance. As expected from Harry Potter, one of the biggest movie franchises in the history of ema.

  Even the first weekend of The Revenant could not pare to Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets. The Revenant's first weekend grossed only 41 million.

  Some articles made fun of Kazir Grey because of this result. His movie this year was nothing pared to Harry Potter.

  Kazir's st two movies grossed over 1 billion at the box offid the expectations for his movie were higher.

  However, Kazir Grey decided to deliver a biopic movie. The movie had its highlights, but it was mediocre pared to Wanted and Spider-Man.

  For some people, art was important. For others, the box office was more important.

  In this situation, Kazir decided to focus more o because his goal for The Revenant was to win at the Oscars. As long as The Revenant was not a box office flop, it was fine.

  As of this writing, The Revenant has already grossed 115.57 million. The total budget for The Revenant was 135 million, plus the promotional budget.

  Even though the box office hasn't surpassed the budget yet, The Revenant has already done well, and only fools would believe that The Revenant is a flop.

  If some neers bashed Kazir, most film critics praised the director instead.

  The Revenant was different from the usual movies Kazir made. It was inspiring to see someone as talented as Kazir step away from mainstream genres.

  Biopics are based on real people and real events, sometimes not historically accurate, but it still sends the message.

  One week after the release of Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, 007: Die Another Day was released by MGM. The movie grossed 47.07 in its first weekend.

  Unfortunately, the box office champion of the week was still Harry Potter, as the movie grossed 148.35 million after ten days iers.

  No promising movies were released after 007: Die Another Day and the days passed by until December arrived.

  Grey Pictures was already preparing most of the props for Kazir's project. Kazir Grey, Tom Cruise and the cast of The Revenant were out of the try promoting the film iionally. Harold Witsend was in charge of prepping Pirates of the Caribbean while Kazir was gone.

  They spent almost three weeks flying around promoting the movie.

  Of course, Kazir and Tom would return to Los Angeles on December 19, as the Golden Globes would annouhe nominations for the 60th Golden Globes Awards.

  The Academy Awards and the Golden Globes were highly respected in the industry.

  On December 18, the day before the Golden Globes nominations were annouhe st most anticipated film of the year was released. It was her than The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.

  Just like Harry Potter, this franchise has gathered so many fans after the success of the first movie.

  Both Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings were adaptations of novels. In this case, it shows that novels should be taken seriously. Because they be an important source of profit.

  The first 24-hour box office for The Lord of the Rings: The Two Trossed 26.15 million. New Line ema and Warner Brothers were the clear wihis year.

  While the opening day results of Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers was released, the Beverly Hilton Hotel in Beverly Hills, California acked with people, and these people were mostly celebrities and people who worked in Hollywood.

  Kazir and Tom were sitting at a table, ughing and talking. They looked professional iuxedos.

  Everyone was waiting for the annou.
