On the weekend after Thanksgiving, Ronan was not very relieved to Tom Cruise, so he brought Jessica Felton to visit.

"Hi, Ronan." Tom Cruise hugged Ronan, then nodded to Jessica Felton: "Jesse, welcome you."

Jessica Felton smiled back and said, "I have wanted to come and visit you for a long time, and I will have a chance today."

Tom Cruise greeted, "Sit as you like."

Ronan and Jessica Felton sat on the couch together and asked with concern: "Are you feeling better?"

"It's much better," said Tom Cruise.

The footsteps suddenly sounded, and someone came down from the upper floor. Before the person arrived, the sound arrived: "Tom, are there any guests?"

A brunette girl wearing a white loose T-shirt and jeans walked down from the upper floor. After seeing Ronan, she hurriedly said, "Hello, Ronan."

This is a Latin girl. Ronan often saw her around Tom Cruise two years ago, and nodded with a smile: "Hello, Penny."

The person who came down was Tom Cruise's ex-girlfriend, Spanish movie star Penelope Cruz.

Penelope Cruz exchanged a few more greetings with Jessica Felton, and then the two women went elsewhere.

Ronan asked curiously: "Are you back?"

"I can't explain it clearly." Tom Cruise obviously didn't think about it: "On Thanksgiving night, I went to a nightclub for a drink, met Penny, and came back together."

Ronan has become used to Hollywood breakups and reunions, and these are all the same.

Tom Cruise said again: "What do I say to her? I have been in love for several years, and she is not blonde and white-skinned."

Ronan said: "Don't take some things too seriously. If she likes, let her say she'll go."

Tom Cruise sighed and said, "I am not as open-minded as you. Maybe one day I will really be unable to bear it."

Ronan said a fact: "That would be more suitable for her."

Even if you can't bear it, what can Tom Cruise do? After all, this is a society with laws. Nicole Kidman is not an unknown person. Tom Cruise, at most, sued Nicole Kidman for verbal battles.

It can be imagined that entertainment media and paparazzi across the United States must be more excited than being injected with chicken blood, and will chase these two people and related news wildly.

Tom Cruise was not stupid. He understood what Ronan meant after thinking about it and said, "I can't do anything to her, but Case Urban may not be."

Ronan shook his head slightly, without talking about this topic, and instead asked, "Have you reached a final agreement with Brad Bird?"

"The contract has been signed." Tom Cruise briefly introduced: "Originally, "Mission: Impossible 4" will start preparing after the New Year, but this screenwriter's strike will have some impact, and it may have to be delayed until after the strike before formal preparation. My production company has also reached a new agreement with Paramount Pictures on investment and sharing. Dubai's funds will invest in this project, and the crew will have a long time to shoot in Dubai."

Ronan said: "The Arabs are very rich."

Tom Cruise laughed: "By the way, I went to the UAE some time ago and I heard a lot of legends about you back then."

Ronan smiled: "I cooperated voluntarily with the Abu Dhabi consortium, win-win."

Speaking of the Abu Dhabi consortium, Tom Cruise said: "This is also our old neighbor. Their Manchester City team has recruited soldiers in the past two years and plans to compete for the football dominance in the Premier League and even Europe from Manchester United."

"It's a good thing to have competitors." Ronan said the truth: "Don't forget that in the past two years, there have been many people in Manchester United who have been cleaned up because they have won too much honor and lack of fighting spirit."

Tom Cruise complained: "How long have you not watched Manchester United's game on site and paid attention to the specific affairs of Manchester United club?"

Ronan said frankly: "I have read financial reports every quarter and have multiple professional reviews. Manchester United has already gotten on track and I don't need to participate in specific matters anymore."

Manchester United has achieved the great achievement of three consecutive Champions League titles.

In the past two years, a lot of things have happened in Manchester United, and many players who lack motivation have either taken the initiative or passed away.

In addition, veterans like Giggs, Scholes and Gary Neville retired.

However, Manchester United's strength has not declined but increased. The team's signature letter Rod's spiritual attributes and fighting spirit have always been doubted. Messi and Iniesta have also firmly held the main players in the team.

Unfortunately, King Dong, who lacks self-control, did not mention it after all, and has been living a career of constantly renting out at Manchester United.

As for the head coach, Ferguson has planned to retire after 2010. Klopp, who is the head coach at Hertha Berlin, has been trained for several years and has obviously improved his ability and will be the first candidate to succeed in the future.

This team doesn't need Ronan to bet too much energy.

However, there are many buyers who want to buy Manchester United clubs, such as the Qatar consortium, which offered 2 billion pounds.

However, Ronan is not short of funds for the time being and has no intention of selling Manchester United clubs in the short term.

Of course, if the Arabs were willing to pay more than 3 billion pounds, Ronan, Tom Cruise and Will Smith would not be in their hands and not selling.

When Ronan saw Tom Cruise in a normal mood and did not stay at his house for a long time, he soon bid farewell with Jessica Felton and left. Penelope Cruz was like the hostess, and enthusiastically sent Ronan and the others to the gate.

After getting in the car, Ronan asked, "Go home or?"

Jessica Felton glanced at Penelope Cruz who was walking back and said, "Go back." She couldn't help but the woman's natural gossip: "Tom used to be boyfriend and girlfriend with Penelope Cruz?"

"Yes." Luo Nan also looked over there: "I remember it seemed that they broke up in 2004."

Jessica Felton said: "Actually, Tom finds a fixed girlfriend and asks her to quarrel with Nicole Kidman, which is a good idea."

Ronan thought for a while and said, "No matter how much noise such a thing is, Nicole Kidman is the winner."

Jessica Felton was originally a person in the Hollywood circle. It was not difficult to figure out the truth. She could only shake her head and say, "Ex-couple couple, why bother to such a fuss."

"Okay, let's not talk about these troubles." Ronan changed the topic: "We each won a game of billiards yesterday, but we haven't decided yet. Let's go back and continue."

Jessica Felton raised her eyebrows: "Okay."

Ronan solemnly said: "There is a rule that big balls hit small balls are fouls!"

During the Thanksgiving holiday and weekend, despite the release of many new films, "Thor" did not suffer much impact and the box office trend was still stable.

After spending his third weekend in North America, Thor's North American box office accumulated $163.25 million and the global box office was $333.58 million.

Like the already-down Hulk, "Thor" is the one who has already been released, it is possible to recover all its investments by relying solely on global box office share.

The next ten or twenty years may be the best era for superhero movies.

Within Hollywood, musical films, western films, epic films and action films have been leading the way for more than ten years, and finally it was the turn of comic-adapted superhero movies.

This is also inseparable from the development of the social environment.

Today in Hollywood, there is an unavoidable fact that original science fiction movies are declining sharply, accompanied by the rise of superhero movies.

Since 1977, science fiction movies have been the box office darling of Hollywood, and countless classic commercial blockbusters have been born in this genre. Now, this position is gradually giving way to superhero movies. This movie is adapted from comics that once became popular all over the United States, and is a mix of action, adventure, fantasy, and science fiction, and has gradually become a globally popular commercial movie.

People in the city need a new hero, more gorgeous, exaggerated, magical, and richer and secret than before. This kind of hero must transcend the constraints of the mechanical and electronic ages, become a new myth, carrying new dreams, Superman, Batman and later superheroes satisfy all of this.

More importantly, this kind of superhero can be produced in large quantities and continuously lined up, and there are various types of styles to choose from.

Especially in the United States, where the economy continues to be sluggish after 9/11, the public needs new and more flesh-and-blood screen heroes to bring them a sense of security, a return of the American spirit, and a shining object of modern technology and fashion worship.

As Marvel movies succeed one after another, the troubles that the hit movies are almost never absent also fall on Marvel Entertainment - a copyright issue.

Stan Lee is recognized as the father of Marvel superheroes, but there was another person who made no contributions at that time. If Jack Kobe had not died in 1994, he might have gained such a title in the Marvel series.

Jack Kobe is one of Marvel's veterans and an important assistant to S Lee. He has participated in the creation of superhero characters such as "Fantasy Four", "Hulk", "Captain America", "Iron Man", and "Thor", and is one of the creators of the Avengers.

At the end of November, Jack Kobe's descendants and their lawyers held a press conference, claiming that they would file a lawsuit in the Los Angeles court, suing Marvel Comics and Marvel Studios, demanding that the copyright of their comic characters created by Jack Kobe be terminated, the preparation and shooting of "Avengers" were suspended, and the profits brought by previous movies were shared.

The total of 45 lawsuits filed by Jack Kobe's descendants to terminate copyright will be finally realized, including the copyright and income of many characters such as Iron Man, Hulk, Thor, and Spider-Man.

A movie is super popular, and its revenue, including box office, can only be described as hot. Many people who have nothing to do with it want to come and take a bite.

This is not surprising at all in Marvel superhero movies.

Huge benefits can attract too many people to come.
