Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!

With a reserved smile on her face, Natalie Portman walked into the interview area. As the Oscar winner and the most famous star in the crew, she was naturally the focus of media reporters' attention. Before she could stand firm, countless reporters surrounded her, flashed and turned off the lights and threw them into pieces, and problems were thrown over one after another.

Looking at these crazy reporters, Natalie Portman felt quite contented. Although he couldn't hear what these guys were saying because of the chaos, he maintained a consistent smile on his face.

Soon a staff member came to maintain order, and the restlessness of the reporters gradually subsided, and they knew that it was impossible to interview them at all.

"Please ask questions one by one." Natalie Portman said gracefully.

As the best actress in the new Oscar, her attraction is self-evident, and the reporters have reached a silent tacit understanding and asked questions one by one.

Accompanied by William Morris's agent, Natalie Portman patiently answered various questions.

"Miss Portman, why do you want to star in such a movie?"

"I am a Marvel fan and I really like Marvel's superhero comics. The character Jane Foster is very charming."

This is Natalie Portman's answer. She will not tell reporters that she won the Oscar for Best Actress, and of course she has to earn a high salary in such popcorn movies.

She was very famous in the past. Apart from the prequel trilogy supported by Star Wars Halo, there was no film that could really sell well. The pay was not high. Now that she won the Best Actress, she must find a way to get back the high cost of investment.

On such occasions, most reporters are more polite in their questions, but there are also very sharp people.

"Natalie, do you think Thor will be a big success?"

A reporter from the New York Post squeezed into Natalie Portman and asked loudly, "Will it sell at the box office?"

There is no need to think about this kind of question at all, Natalie Portman replied directly, "Of course! This is a very outstanding movie, and both box office and reputation will be successful!"

The reporter of the New York Post smiled. The first question was just a prelude, and the other party's answer could only be answered like this. Then he asked the second question, "Murphy Stanton's "City of Chaos" will be released on a large scale this week..."

When Natalie Portman heard this name, her smile suddenly froze. However, after all, she is a character who has Oscar-level acting skills in life, and she instantly returns to normal. If ordinary people don’t observe carefully, they will not see any changes in her expression.

"Do you think Thor's box office and reputation..." The New York Post reporter suddenly emphasized his tone, "Will it be better than Murphy Stanton's City of Chaos?"

As soon as this problem arose, all the reporters raised their ears, and many people even looked at the recorder and camera to confirm that there was no problem.

Everyone knows that Natalie Portman and Murphy had a conflict, and now their videos collided head-on...

Accompanying Natalie Portman was a William Reese agent in charge of public relations. He immediately realized that there might be a trap in this problem and quickly coughed behind him.

Natalie Portman said directly as if he hadn't heard it, "Thor is definitely the box office champion this week!"

The reporter of the New York Post keenly noticed the changes that happened to Natalie Portman and asked quickly, "So, do you think your video can suppress Murphy Stanton's video?"

"That's right!" Since Natalie Portman said the first sentence, he naturally would not change his words, "That's it!"

Seeing that the reporter was about to ask questions, the agent stepped forward and stopped Natalie Portman and the reporter, and said loudly, "Everyone, Miss Portman is going to take a photo with you, so let's stop at the interview."

Natalie Portman glanced at the agent, said nothing, and left with him.

The two walked towards the poster area where the crew was located, and the agent reminded, "Nate, the problem just now..."

"Is there any question in my answer?" Natalie Portman is now the new Oscar winner, and his aura is full of energy. "Or do you have no confidence in me?"

"Well……"

The agent opened his mouth and stopped talking. From the heroine's standpoint, Natalie Portman's answer had no questions. The only question was that the film "Thor" can really compete with Murphy Stanton's new work?

Compared to Natalie Portman, the agent has no confidence at all.

But he can only represent one person's opinion. Not only Natalie Portman is full of confidence in "Thor", but also some senior executives of Marvel Comics.

"The preview of our video is very good!"

In the front hall of the Hollywood Chinese Grand Theater, Stan Lee wore the iconic sunglasses and said confidently, "It is inevitable that the video will be sold well!"

Avi Arad nodded slightly. If it was just a reputation for the preview, it might not be much, but the pre-sale result of more than $10 million is more than a little better than when "Iron Man" was released.

Stan Lee was still talking, "I think the first week of Thor should be similar to that of Iron Man, and the final North American box office will be around $250 million!"

This is also a consensus reached within Marvel Studios based on the pre-sale results of the first weekend.

Avi Arad is not particularly familiar with the film industry, but he knows that Thor is facing a huge threat to achieve the expected results.

"Where is Murphy Stanton's "City of Chaos"?" he asked.

"The pre-sale is three million dollars less than us!" Stan Lee seemed to be an expert in studying the film market. "According to all aspects, North America's first weekend box office will be at least 30 million dollars less than "Thor"!"

He raised his old face and chuckled twice, "If there is something wrong with the reputation of "City of Chaos", it is not surprising that the box office in the first weekend was below 40 million US dollars. It is not surprising that the box office in North America will be difficult to exceed 150 million US dollars!"

In just the preview, "City of Chaos" had a certain proportion of bad reviews, which was significantly worse than "Thor" with zero bad reviews.

Although Walt Disney and Marvel Studios have done a lot of work on the zero negative reviews of Thor's preview, it is impossible for Twentieth Century Fox to not do it. On the same basis, it is clear at a glance which of the two films is higher and lower.

On the same weekend, two films that received much attention were released, which is not a rare thing in the extremely crowded North American summer season. It is not a big deal for ordinary movie fans. What they do is to take out the money in their pockets and buy movie tickets for their favorite movies, how to watch the movie or how to watch the movie.

Every audience has different preferences, and they always choose the videos they watch according to their first impression.

This first impression is widely influenced by external factors, such as the film's starring actors, directors, and genres, as well as brand effects like Marvel or Murphy, which can also play a certain role.

As the summer season kicks off, many movie fans have left their homes and entered the theaters, preparing to choose the right movie for them.

After hiding in March and April for two months, Daisy finally waited for Murphy's film to be released. With her recently met friends, she came to the Imperial Cinema at the Santa Monica Commercial Center and prepared to watch "City of Chaos" together.

Before coming to the automatic ticket pickup machine, Daisy entered the verification code and got the movie tickets that had been booked before.

She turned around and said to her companion, "It's your turn, Christine."

A girl named Christine came to the automatic ticket machine and suddenly felt guilty and said to Daisy, "I... I may have some problems and can't watch "City of Chaos" with you."

"What?" Daisy asked with a frown, "What's wrong? Are you in urgent need?"

"No." Christine entered her verification code on the machine. A movie ticket with the label "Thor" fell down. She picked it up and said weakly, "I...I think... it's still Marvel's superhero movies suitable for me."

Daisy glanced at the movie ticket in her hand and snorted, "Traitor!"

Kristen pulled her aside and explained, "You know I'm a Natalie Portman fan."

"What's good about that woman?" Daisy's words jumped out of her mouth without passing through her brain, "Hyphorical..."

"Daisy!" Christine was a little unhappy.

"Forget it." Daisy waved her hand, "You go watch "Thor", I'll watch "City of Chaos" myself."

Kristen nodded, and just as she was about to leave, Daisy said again, "If you feel disgusted, you can come and find me."

After the movie starts to be screened, it is not difficult to change the cinema in the screening area. The biggest trouble comes from 3D. However, "City of Chaos" is not 3D, so there is no such inconvenience.

In New York, Manhattan, as soon as the time comes to get off work, Edmund Princeton and his colleague Dirk left the company and went directly to the nearest amc cinema chain.

"You really don't watch "City of Chaos"?"

In the theater lobby, Edmund Princeton asked Dirk, "You can still buy tickets now."

"I'd better go and watch it tomorrow." After reading the relevant promotional materials, although Dirk was also very interested in "City of Chaos", brainless popcorn like "Thor" is his first choice. "I'll watch "Thor" first."

Edmund Princeton couldn't help, "Well, let's see you at half past nine."

"Yeah." Dirk looked at his watch, "I'll wait for you, we'll have a drink together after all."

"Thor" has only 114 minutes on the set, while "City of Chaos" is more than 150 minutes long. He must have to wait for Edmund Princeton for a while.
