Hollywood What If Chapter 185
With Stel Willow's persistence, she vinced 20th tury Fox and Warner Bros to drop their bad blood with Grey Pictures and focus their attention on DreamWorks instead.
It was amazing how the woman vihe two movie panies. She used a variety of means, luring them with scripts, promising cooperation, and telling them that DreamWorks was gettier these days. The woman was very good at her job.
Even Kazir Grey could never do what she did.
As a result, Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace was released in May. Even though the promotion was quite hectic, every fan was excited to see the iic movie.
panies were predig that the film could surpass the 1 billion mark. With each passing year, Hollywood slowly uood that movies could indeed make 1 billion at the box office. Furthering the hatred of the European film industry.
The European film industry was the first of its kind, but it failed in globalization. Gradually, Hollywood movies influenced more and more tries until the European film industry could only release its movies in its owory.
Of course, some European films made it to the Uates, but they didn't have a stroion. Also, most European directors have this fetish about sex in their movies. Their movies would be rated R and the tickets sold would be affected as well.
In the month of May 1999, only a few movies did well. Well, the summer schedule just started in that month.
The Mummy from Universal Pictures. It is estimated to make more than 400 million worldwide.
Notting Hill, a romantiedy starring Julia Roberts and Hugh Graimated to make about 350 million worldwide.
Of course, the best movie of May was her than Star Wars Episode 1: The Phantom Menace. If the predis are correct, this will be the third 1 billion movie in history. The hype for this movie was very strong. Even Liam Neeson had a role in this movie and his sary was quite good.
In Juhe Matrix, Austin Powers, Tarzan and Wild Wild West were the winners.
"Haaahh..."
Kazir yawned, stretg his body. He stood up and looked around. He was in a room where a bunonitors were set up.
He rubbed his face to wake himself from his stupor. His eyes were a little sore from not sleeping well.
After filming ended in May, Kazir immediately began post-produ on The Bourne Identity. There was iween. He spent his time editing the film with Rector and the other editors. With his good memory, they started with the skeleton of the movie before cutting out the unnecessary ses.
Fortunately, The Bourne Identity was not full of CGI ses. In fact, there was no CGI at all.
Kazir didn't have to waste his time hiring a special effects team to render some ses.
That was a good thing. Because if there was a CGI se, it would take Kazir at least two months to create the special effects.
Time was now his enemy. He had signed a tract with Sony-bia for his film to be released in te July or early August. If he missed that, he would have to pay the penalties.
Even though Kazir was good at his job and he was fast. He couldn't help but feel a sense ency. Time ressuring him.
Editor Rector was suffering from the same thing.
Rector was sleeping on the keyboard. His drool was dripping and his face was emaciated. It seemed that proper rest did in him.
"... We finally fihe editing."
June was a busy month for many, and Kazir spent the month in the editing room. Even Erica Mendez was free most of the time.
Kazir sighed when he knew his month of suffering was over. He had to apologize to Rector's wife for kidnappior for a month.
'I have to give this guy a bonus.'
Kazir left the room to get some fresh air, he looked out into the hallway and noticed that there was no one around.
'It's still early.'
Kazir went upstairs a into his office. His office had a bathroom he could use. To freshen up, he decided to take a bath.
'20th tury Fox showed their goodwill by rescheduling Star Wars. As for Warner Bros, The Matrix was released in Ju seems that Warner Bros never inteo be on our bad side. It's uandable because I'm still in the process of writing The Hangover Part 3.'
Even though his position was only swriter, no oled Kazir. He was good at his job and everyone accepted his credibility. As long as possible, Warner Bros didn't want to bother him.
'But ohe Hangover Part 3 is over, they will defiry to do something. Then maybe I find a way to survive.'
A few hours ter, the Grey Pictures building was bustling again.
Erica Mendez walked into Kazir's offibsp;
"Sir, this is the neer you asked for.
"Thank you."
Kazir was still tired, but he had to work for the pany.
'Normally I would take a few weeks off to rest, but I 't do that now that I have another job to do.'
If it were not for Stel Willow doing most of the work, Kazir might die of overwork.
Kazir looked at the neer. He smiled when he read something iing.
"As expected... They really are trying to swihe whole try." He chuckled.
In his past life, the pany that acquired The Bir Witch Project was Artisaertai.
However, perhaps because of Kazir's interferen the timelihe one who got The Bir Witch Project this time was Miramax.
In the neer there was an article about a group of college students who went to Burkittsville, Marynd a missing. They interviewed people about the mythical Bir Witd decided to go to the Bck Hills near Burkittsville.
