Hollywood spends a lot of money to make a blockbuster movie hit. The costs to bring in top performers combined with special cinematic effects teams makes producing top rated movies extremely expensive. It is a gamble but it is a risk that Hollywood is willing to take.
Hollywood can tell if a new movie is going to be profitable within one week of its release. The massive publicity campaign combined with well designed media blitzes create an air of anticipation which drives up ticket sales. Before Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince was released, the movie and writer received tons of publicity and fans around the world anticipated its release.
Before a new movie is released, Hollywood will often create a lot of publicity around a new release prior to the movie hitting the theaters. The publicity spreads life wild-fire and creates anticipation and excitement. A classic example is all the publicity that was generated around the new Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince.
Today, it is so much easier for producers and directors to plan a blockbuster hit movie. They have learned a lot about what America and the rest of the world wants in movie entertainment in the last 30 years. This data helps them target the interest of the broadest movie audience with a potential big hit before the movie is ever made.
Given the history of the movie industry during the past 50 years, Hollywood has figured out what makes a movie a hit. They know what Americans and people around the world want to see. In some cases, it does not take 50 million dollar budget to create a hit move. Big sellers have been produced as a result of creating low budget horror flicks such as the Rocky Horror Picture Show and Night of the Living Dead.
Besides new movie releases, Hollywood also generates hefty revenues from older classics too and popular television shows too. The sales of DVD rentals and purchases continually produce added revenues as people build their movie libraries over time. Many popular television series have been transformed into DVD's for public purchase.
Older movie classics like Godzilla and King Kong have been remade using modern special effects and have attracted a wide viewing audience. These are movies that once entertained us with mediocre special effects now updated with dazzling life-like quality. One of the newer in this genre that paid off well was the Jurassic Park series. With almost two sold out sequels and tens of thousands of DVD rentals and sales, it paid off big for producers.
Super heroes with god-like powers like are quickly becoming big hits as producers find new ways to introduce worlds crossed between fantasy and reality. Special effects have really come a long way. - 30518
