The biggest surprise at the 76th Academy Awards was that there were so few surprises. The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King swept the Oscars on Sunday night, winning 12 statuettes, including best director and Best Picture.

Duke Rosenberg's 'The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King' had previously grossed nearly $1.6 billion worldwide, winning all 12 of its nominations, beating out 1997's 'Titans' Nick and 1959's Ben-Hur, a night for The Lord of the Rings and Duke Rosenberg!

Not only the Washington Post, but the entertainment pages of the three major newspapers in the United States are all focused on the Oscars.

Last night, Western time, the 76th Academy Awards ceremony was held at the Kodak Theater in Los Angeles. The results of this year's awards did not break out any unpopularity, and all the major awards were won by the favorites previously speculated by the outside world.

Here is the famous Watch Movie magazine. It was dedicated to Duke and the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

On the afternoon of February 29th, Western Time, this year's Oscars opened without any suspense. As the director of the movie Lord of the Rings trilogy, Duke Rosenberg was the most talented person on earth on this day. A decent person.

The world's most expensive director who held up the statue three times in one night - Best Director, Best Picture and Best Adapted Screenplay. A veritable winner!

As the winner of this year's Oscars, The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King belongs to the kind of 'landscape movie' created by Duke Rosenberg with visual effects technology. Since technical awards are given to digital work at the same time People, this night, The Lord of the Rings 3 took home more than 20 statuettes at once.

I don't know, the trilogy has made more than four billion dollars at the box office worldwide. What kind of a specific economic image is this. But I know that this is a great magic trilogy, which has successively been released in mainland China. When it was released, it won a total of more than 25000 RMB at the national box office!

I still can't forget the memory of Duke Rosenberg's Lord of the Rings trilogy from my movie viewing experience. The kind of stunned by what you see on the wide screen from beginning to end. The experience is unprecedented—perhaps, that's the glamour of Hollywood, that's the glamour of American blockbusters.

There is no doubt that Duke Rosenberg is becoming a master of cinema, a true master, and the means of expression that his mirror words can provide are always the most talented and the most exciting.

The director whose Chinese translation is Duke Rosenberg, although he is an American, may be the American director we are most familiar with. But do you know? Including the Lord of the Rings trilogy, his directing career The total box office has accumulated more than 7.5 billion US dollars, and it has successfully surpassed James Cameron, George Lucas and Steven Spielberg to become the number one movie box office in the world!

What's even more amazing is that he did this in just twelve years and ten movies!

If before this year, Duke Rosenberg's biggest regret was undoubtedly the lack of recognition from heavyweight awards, but at this Oscars ceremony, the king finally returned, and Duke Rosenberg reigned. place!

Fortunately, in June of this year, the newly crowned Oscar-winning director will bring his new film Hurricane Rescue to the beach at the Shang Hai International Film Festival, this typical Duke Rosen The action movie of the Berger format will be released simultaneously in China and the United States, and because of the time difference, Chinese audiences will see this masterpiece before American audiences!

We look forward to the arrival of director Duke Rosenberg and his new work!

In any case, Oscar's influence in North America and even the world cannot be underestimated. The unprecedented twelve statuettes, in addition to the huge glory, can also be directly converted into economic benefits.

It seems particularly vulgar to talk about money in front of the Oscars, but look at the major companies in Hollywood, especially Miramax and the Weinstein brothers, why are the Oscars really just for art and glory?

I believe that any normal person can easily make a judgment.

The Oscar effect, the feedback on The Return of the King, is the most direct data.

The film has not been completely removed from the North American theater chain. The distributor Warner Bros. has made great efforts. There are only less than 300 theater chains left in the film. On the second day of the Oscar ceremony, The King The North American theater chain of Return has been expanded again, reaching as many as 1,500!

The most important thing is that a considerable number of movie fans, influenced by the twelve statuettes, entered the theater one after another and watched the film again, which made the single-day box office of less than 10,000 US dollars exceed 500,000 US dollars in one fell swoop. After 12 days of screening, the North American box office figure, which has been stuck at more than 1.59 billion US dollars for a long time, finally crossed the 600 million US dollar mark!

While this was only a blip, Return of the King became the second film to gross over $600 million in North America and over $1.6 billion worldwide.

By mid-March, The Return of the King was released in North America, the last screening region in the world, and the theatrical journey that created a series of brilliant Lord of the Rings trilogy came to an end, and the most successful series of movies ever was born.

The Fellowship of the Ring made $473.15 million in North America and $1,132.14 million worldwide.

The Two Towers grossed $521.32 million in North America and $1,312.88 million worldwide.

The Return of the King grossed $645.55 million in North America and $1.61015 billion worldwide.

The trilogy totaled $4,055.17 million!

This is only a part of the film's revenue. Although many peripheral products are still on sale, and some peripherals have not been launched, as of mid-March 2004, the total revenue of peripheral sales of the Lord of the Rings trilogy has exceeded 3 billion US dollars!

By the end of March, the DVD disc of The Return of the King was officially launched on a global scale. It is still divided into a normal pack of $19.9 and a deluxe pack of $39.9. The first week of sales in North America reached $165.77 million, the world's first. Weekly sales of $312.88 million!

This is far from the end of the DVD, and Duke and Warner Bros. plan to continue their money-making journey after two to three years, with the release of a trilogy set with 120 minutes of extras and a total length of nearly 12 hours.

Even in the video-on-demand function newly launched by the sharing website, the Lord of the Rings trilogy can also be paid for on-demand, but with the current network conditions, the effect can only be said to be mediocre.

Although the relationship between Duke and Ivanka has not deteriorated, it has not improved too much, but both are relatively calm people and rarely bring personal conflicts into work.

With the passage of time, Oscar's popularity gradually dissipated. Those golden statuettes were casually thrown into the showcase in Duke's studio by Duke. For him, glory belongs only to the past, not to the future. There was a long, long way to go, and he never thought to stop here.

DC, Marvel, Transformers, etc., plans are already on his desk.

An old era is over, a new era is coming! (To be continued ^)
