The measuring system for gauging a film's success is based on unadjusted grosses, mainly because historically this is the way it has always been done because of the practices of the film industry: the box-office receipts are compiled by theaters and relayed to the distributor, which in turn releases them to the media.[30] Converting to a more representative system that counts ticket sales rather than gross is also fraught with problems because the only data available for older films are the sale totals.[26] As the motion picture industry is highly oriented towards marketing currently released films, unadjusted figures are always used in marketing campaigns so that new blockbuster films can much more easily achieve a high sales ranking, and thus be promoted as a "top film of all time",[24][31] so there is little incentive to switch to a more robust analysis from a marketing or even newsworthy point of view.[30]

I noticed that recently there have been a lot of posts from people who have asked if they will be able to 'apply' for roles in big movies and TV shows that have just been announced (the Harry Potter one has been the most common recently), or are rumoured to be underway.

Once in a blue moon, a studio will demand a "true" unknown for a lead role in a blockbuster film. This is more common in indie film, but occasionally happens for a big project. The most recent memory I have of one of these is from the new Star Wars trilogy. A worldwide search was conducted for the roles of Rey and Finn. HOWEVER - although thousands of people who are unrepresented self-submitted and sent in tapes, a casting director was simultaneously following their usual hierarchy and going to agents looking for someone, and it's worth noting that both Daisy Ridley and John Boyega were already represented and had some small professional and indie roles under their belts. I generally mistrust studios when they ask for a "true" unknown - they don't usually want someone who is completely new, they want a skilled, proven actor who is a new face to THEM and to the wider industry. Keep that in mind and keep a healthy skepticism when seeing these open calls.

This fall, Dr. Catherine Haase, Austin Peay State University assistant professor of biology, will teach a class that explores the science portrayed in blockbuster Hollywood movies, specifically putting critical thought to how the science in the movies stacks up to real science.

As the movie industry is one of the influential branches of the media reaching billions of viewers worldwide, they play a great role in shaping the beliefs and opinions of people (Sparks, 2015). Since blockbuster films are those that make money by giving the audience what they want, like, or expect, thus the portrayal of gender roles in blockbuster movies has a direct influence on viewers, possibly reinforcing or contributing to societal gender stereotypes (Ward and Grower, 2020). Thus, in our work, we aim to study and analyse gender bias based on emotions expressed by male and female characters in movies using different Natural Language Processing (NLP) techniques. For this purpose, we chose around thirty blockbuster English movies from IMDb (IMDb, 2019) and performed a comparative analysis of the characters. The study is mainly based on the statistical distribution of male and female characters over a certain period and the sentiment and emotions expressed in their dialogues. Through our work, we are trying to present an approach to understanding and promoting studies on the highly prevalent issue of gender inequality in movies. Furthermore, our analysis allows us to help address the global problem of gender inequality and bring positive social change using NLP.

In this module, we convert the scripts of movies from PDF into a machine-readable format. Movie scripts are first converted from PDF into HTML using online tools. Then we process the HTML and separate scenarios and dialogues of each character.

In this study, we have analysed gender representation in a collection of movies and how gender distribution changed over time. Compared to previous works, we rely not only on word vectors but create new embeddings by analysing the emotions associated with these words. We looked into how stereotypes are presented via emotions, making the results more intuitive. Furthermore, we highlighted the hidden bias by using clustering and other ML techniques. The result of this study suggests that although over years the women portrayal have greatly improved, underneath the surface, implicit biases exist. Our clustering results indicate that while the male characters enjoy a variety of emotions when they are portrayed, women are clustered together following the same emotional pattern.

Directed by Steven Spielberg, then just 26 years old, "Jaws" surfaced in the summer of 1975. John Williams' theme (the most famous two notes in Hollywood history), and those teeth, scared families out of the water and into movie theaters, becoming the blueprint for the modern blockbuster.

Thirty-five years after "Jaws," "Avatar" redefined the blockbuster. So far, James Cameron's 3-D science fiction film has earned $3 billion at the box office. It's Hollywood's biggest moneymaker ever.

"The truth is, the blockbuster is a concept, an idea, a strategy that Hollywood has been using for quite a few decades before 1975, when 'Jaws' was released," said Charles Acland, who chronicles this cinematic business model in his book, "American Blockbuster."

The term's origin story is no Hollywood tale; it came from the American military, the name of a devastating World War II bomb. Acland said, "The blockbuster was initially the highest-capacity explosive that had ever been used in warfare. There was very, very high public awareness of what this was."

In 1959, The New York Times used the word "blockbuster" in its review of "Ben-Hur." Of course, not all these epics succeed. There's 1963's "Cleopatra" (directed by my great-uncle, Joseph L. Mankiewicz).

For every big-budget blockbuster, there are nearly as big-budget bombs: "Battlefield Earth," "John Carter," "The Lone Ranger," "The Adventures of Pluto Nash," and, famously, "Ishtar." Stevens said, "I have great affection for 'Ishtar' now, in part because of how poorly received it was at the time, and how quickly it became just a joke."

For Stephen Lang, the key to turning big-budget film into a blockbuster comes down to a single word: story. "I think as a rule, it's good to have a very simple narrative," he said. "Take 'E.T.' I would characterize 'E.T.' as a blockbuster, although, you know, it doesn't have the huge, huge scale. But what it does have, it's got the cutest alien ever created, and the storyline's pretty simple: I'm here, I'm stuck, and I wanna go home."

Red Dead Redemption 2, one of the most anticipated video games of the year, is off to a blockbuster start. According to a statement put out by Rockstar Games last week, the game had the second-highest grossing launch of any entertainment product in history. With over $725 million in worldwide retail sales during its first three days of availability, the massive Western-themed open world game trails only Grand Theft Auto V, also made by Rockstar Games, in terms of three-day launch sales.


The fact that Rockstar Games celebrates the game's success as the "second-highest grossing entertainment launch of all time" rather than just calling it the second-highest grossing video game launch, says a lot about where video games stand today. They are no longer a time-waster for teenagers slumped in front of their computer screens but global entertainment properties, competing with the biggest blockbusters Hollywood can muster.


As the following chart shows, both GTA V and Red Dead Redemption 2 have made more money in three days than the biggest movie openings of all time.
