Old Ray is not the first time he has missed the box office
Ridley Scott directed and featuring Matt Damon, Ben Affleck, Judy Comer and Adam Dreifer's costume action film The Last Duel failed miserably at the box office, with the over-$100 million film grossing just $27 million worldwide. Recently, when Lei Lao accepted Mark Malone's podcast show, he said that he did not blame the distributor Disney, and the box office failure was mainly a problem of "indifferent millennials" (post-00s).
"I think it comes down to the bottom line — the film didn't do well at the box office because of the problems of the audience who grew up with their phones. Millennials (sic) don't want to learn anything unless you tell him through your phone. ”
"Of course it's a broad generalization, just as Facebook is now a problem, millennial perceptions are a problem." [Mobile internet, which is dependent on mobile phones] is misleading, and it gives this generation the wrong confidence. ”

However, for the box office failure, The old Ray did not feel too frustrated, he said: "This movie was decided by me to make, fox decided to invest." We both thought the script was good, and then we shot it. You can't make it a big hit every time. I've made so many movies and never regretted it. ”
"I learned to self-examine early on. The only thing you should care about is what you just did and look forward. Make sure you're happy and don't look back, that's me. ”
Ridley Scott will soon turn 84, and his gucci family will be released on November 24. He went on to direct biopics about Napoleon, The Pack and Gladiator 2. Executive producers of episodes of Blade Runner and Alien, and the second season of Alien Cataclysm are also being filmed.
