Hollywood starts with an agent

Chapter 479 This is the Peak

The adaptation of The Lord of the Rings trilogy is no easy task, but since Peter Jackson has already begun, Aaron is not in a hurry.
Moreover, with the release of the novel "Harry Potter and the Philosopher's Stone," it won't be long before this series becomes a global phenomenon!
The thought of Warner Bros. without the Harry Potter series and New Line Cinema without the Lord of the Rings series makes Aaron feel a little excited.
After all, Warner Bros. and New Line are both entertainment companies under Time Warner.

On October 1, 1997, the U.S. television program rating system officially came into effect, with the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) overseeing its implementation by television stations.

The main reason is that many people are worried and dissatisfied with the increasing sexual, violent and indecent language in television programs, which has a negative impact on children and teenagers. This is a product of the vigorous promotion by some non-governmental organizations and the balancing of interests among all parties.

TV-Y rating: This refers to programs suitable for all children, including children aged 2-6.

TV-Y7 rating: This refers to television programs that may contain content unsuitable for children under the age of 7.

TV-Y7-FV rating: A television program is rated TV-Y7-FV when it contains more fictional violence than the TV-Y7 rating.

TV-G rating: refers to general-interest television programs suitable for all ages;

TV-PG rating: This refers to television programs that "recommend parental guidance."

TV-14 rating: This means that the program may not be suitable for viewers under the age of 14.
TV-MA rating: This rating indicates that television programs may contain content that is not suitable for minors under the age of 17 or is only suitable for adult viewers.

Meanwhile, as the Asian financial crisis intensified, the Federal Reserve remained highly vigilant and maintained stable interest rates to ensure the stability and growth of the US economy.

Congress recently passed the Balanced Budget Act, which aims to balance the federal budget over the next few years by cutting government spending and increasing some taxes.

In a private box at the Angels Theater in West Hollywood, the comedy film "Mr. Bean's Great Disaster" is being shown.

Aaron and Jennifer Aniston leaned back on the sofa and watched the show together, occasionally bursting into laughter!
“Rowan Atkinson is so funny,” Jennifer Aniston couldn’t help but praise as she leaned against Aaron.

Aaron nodded, stroking the woman's thigh and kissing her lightly. "The combination of British and American humor is quite appealing."

"Rowan Atkinson's 'Mr. Bean' has performed exceptionally well internationally. Even before its North American release, it had already grossed over $1 million overseas!"

Entertainment Weekly: "Rowan Atkinson's portrayal of Mr. Bean in the film is impressive. He breaks the rigid rules of British and American humor and happily and naturally brings everyone into an awkward situation."

However, "Mr. Bean's Big Disaster" was not shown on a large scale in North America, after all, Americans generally don't have a strong attitude towards this kind of British performance.
However, "Mr. Bean's Big Disaster" has received good reviews, and once the word-of-mouth spreads, the scale of screenings can be increased.

The Hollywood Reporter: "It was spearheaded by American Hollywood film studios and incorporated too many American-style elements, completely eliminating the dry humor that the British are best known for."

The Los Angeles Times: "Mr. Bean's Big Disaster was aimed at the American market and the results were generally satisfactory, but it remains to be seen whether this brilliant and quirky comedy can find new audiences."

The Chicago Tribune: "The film has many very funny moments, but the whole movie is a bit too long; perhaps a half-hour television format would be the perfect length for Mr. Bean."

"For example, when the art gallery segment ends and the action shifts to the hospital operating room, you can clearly feel that director Mel Smith is padding the runtime!"

"Mr. Bean's Big Disaster," which swept the European box office, only cost $1800 million to produce. In fact, for the North American market, every dollar of box office revenue is profit. However, regardless of the circumstances, the box office prediction for "Mr. Bean's Big Disaster" in North America is that it will reach around $5000 million.

"The main reason is that the actress is very funny," Jennifer Aniston, the star of the sitcom series Friends, is herself very funny;

Last month, Friends Season 4 premiered, and its ratings and reviews have remained stable, while the popularity of the main actors has been rising day by day.

Jennifer Aniston, in particular, with her sexy figure, beautiful face, and witty and humorous performance, has become America's undisputed sweetheart!

Jennifer Aniston's fame naturally expanded further with the spread of the series, and she herself began to frequently appear on the covers of various entertainment magazines, becoming a focus of the fashion and entertainment industry;

Jennifer Aniston's clothing, hairstyle, and other styles, in particular, have become objects of imitation for audiences, leading fashion trends in the market.

Aaron leaned over Jennifer Anne and kissed her, feeling her softness. "Honey, you're pretty busy these days, aren't you?"

Jennifer Aniston, holding Aaron Anderson close, said breathlessly, "Yes, they're involved in both television and film."

"This year, I've already had two romance movies released, and I've filmed two new movies. I also have one more movie to film next!"

Currently, Jennifer Aniston not only films one episode of "Friends" each year, but also two to three movies.

Although this made her schedule quite full, Jennifer Aniston was enjoying it.

Aaron chuckled, rolled off, and let Jennifer Aniston snuggle into his arms. "Now that you have Friends to rely on, you're basically guaranteed fame."

"Actually, there's no need to push yourself like this. Wouldn't it be better to take more time to rest?"

For this year's Friends Season 4, the six main actors were each paid $85000. Since the third season, when everyone's salary was the same, the preparation period for the show has been significantly shortened.
In Friends Season 3, the six main actors were each paid $75000. It is estimated that by the time Friends Season 4 airs next year, their individual salaries per episode will reach $100,000!

“It’s okay, in the movie, it’s also a way to hone my acting skills,” Jennifer Aniston said, snuggling into Aaron’s arms.

"If you want to hone your acting skills, comedy films probably won't be very effective; you need drama films."

"Besides, the Friends series has practically defined your image, and changing it won't be that easy."

In Aaron's mind, only Jennifer Aniston will achieve success in the film industry in the future; for the other five, Friends is their peak!

“Okay, whatever you say,” Jennifer Aniston said, then closed her eyes, exhausted…
