Hollywood Drawing

: Five hundred and forty-eight - provocation requires a price

Whether it is a new generation of Hollywood Jewish directors hyped in the media, a confrontation with an old Jewish director, or a stunt of the handover of the scepter of the leaders of the new and old top Hollywood directors in the mouths of many media and film critics, all of these are not without exception. It should be noted that even in the process of "Batman: The Dark Knight" sweeping the theatrical market, people are still full of expectations for "Jurassic Park 2".

On Thursday night, May 22, 1997, the film that had sold all kinds of dinosaur toys insane four years ago is back again, with a grand premiere at the Shrine Theater in Los Angeles and Jurassic Park 2. At the same time, more than 3,200 advance games have been opened to all North America.

Like the choice of "Batman: The Dark Knight", the theaters under Universal Pictures and the Cinema Alliance did not choose to open the midnight show for the film, but chose to open the early show simultaneously in major cities.

After tonight, the film will be released on a large scale in about 3,650 theaters on Friday morning. At that time, the theater market will usher in the most important battle after the start of the summer season, even if the two The popularity of this film is very high, and there is generally no famous person who dares to give prediction results in advance.

This time, even a third-party forecasting company, and even the Las Vegas Gaming Group, canceled bets on the box office of the two films this weekend.

"The tickets for the VIP theater have already been booked, and this is the only one that I bought through the scalper."

In the presidential suite on the top floor of the Hilton Hotel, Charles Rowan's voice had a helpless tone. While handing over a few movie tickets to Nina, he looked at Wayne who was putting sunglasses on his face, obviously wanting to say more I ordered something, hesitated for a moment, and swallowed again.

"Haney, I'm done, let's go."

The door of the master bedroom opened, and Naomi Watts lost her usual gorgeous clothes and completely transformed into a girl next door. Her figure was very well maintained, and she didn't look like a woman who had given birth. . Simple skinny jeans and a white t-shirt, a simple and refreshing ponytail behind a baseball cap with DC letters, and the same large sunglasses that cover most of the face.

Similar to the usual Australian actress dressed like the girl next door, Wayne also rarely faded his tough dark custom suit, also jeans with white half-sleeves, and a baseball cap with DC letters. The usual mature and stable image is more like a young man who has just graduated from college at this time.

Seeing two people holding hands and walking out of the presidential suite with the assistant lady, Charles Rowan shook his head helplessly, grabbed Sergey who was following him, and looked up at the man-bear-like man with a serious face. The Russian security guard whispered:

"Listen, don't take a single step away from Wayne's side. Make sure he is always in your sight. Damn, this is Chicago. The chaos at night is definitely beyond your imagination!"

"Ok, don't worry."

Nodding, Sergey grinned and gave the other party a smile that he thought he was relieved. With his long legs, he quickly chased after the three who had left.

Not long after, a business car provided by the hotel quietly drove out from the underground parking lot. The rest of the crew were exhausted by the intensive publicity activities in one city every day, or even two cities a day. People care about where they go and stay, and they all seize every minute of time to rest.

The car did not drive too far, and stopped three and a half blocks away from the Hilton Hotel, in front of a theater owned by the American artist chain. After being recognized by the fans, he opened the car door and walked towards the cinema hall.

"Shit, maybe it shouldn't come out with Sergey."

As the long line of fans moved forward slowly, Wayne whispered to the woman beside him. Nina and the three of them are okay, and they basically didn't attract much attention, but the tall Russian bear has always been the focus of many people's eyes, and he even heard some small fans speculate in a low voice that this guy can You can't kill a cow with one punch.

"Come on, boy." Naomi Watts held the man's arm in one hand and rolled her eyes covertly as she moved forward slowly. "This is Chicago, do you think if you don't bring Sergey, Charles and the others will dare to let you leave the hotel alone at night?"

Wayne shrugged and didn't continue the topic, and silence resumed between them again. Listening to the fans around him constantly discussing all topics related to dinosaurs, his thoughts are slowly dispersing.

In his memory, he actually only watched the first "Jurassic Park" in 1993, then "Jurassic Park 2", and "Jurassic World" and other series, but he didn't watch them completely. Pass. Taking advantage of the fact that he had just arrived in the city of Chicago and there was no announcement at night, he also wanted to know about his competitor in advance.

He doesn't know about the upcoming film, but when it comes to "Jurassic Park", which came out in 1993, Wayne has a very deep memory. And since I am also in this era, I can understand the difficulty of that film even more.

You must know that in the early 1990s, computer special effects were far less developed than in the past two years. The "Jurassic Park" was completely completed with models and animations, this kind of rough special effects production method. However, the technical limitations did not degrade the viewing experience of that movie in the slightest.

At least in Wayne's vague memory, he had heard from his friends more than once that the story and images of the first "Jurassic Park" were more powerful than the more and more realistic special effects that followed.

In that film, he only remembered the rough story. A scientist relied on the genes in the amber to create a big dinosaur. People circled all kinds of dinosaurs on the island and established Jurassic Park. The control system was paralyzed, the dinosaurs ran out to destroy and eat people everywhere, and several protagonists had a natural aura of immortality and finally escaped from the island. "What are you thinking about?"

After the movie officially started, Naomi Watts and Wayne sat in the corner of the back row. The Australian actress withdrew her attention from the big screen, glanced at the man who had been silent beside her, and joked: "Why? Like? Shocked by the movie? Are you starting to worry about losing to Steven? It's okay, if you cry out in fear, I will never tell anyone."

The woman's words interrupted Wayne's thoughts. What made him laugh and cry was that the woman not only teased him recklessly in her words, but also took substantive actions. She opened her arms to him, like comforting an injured child. Like, gave a warm embrace.

"F**kyou! Nami." At the same time as changing their usual dress, the two seemed to put down their usual masks. Wayne rudely reached out and knocked off the woman's arm, leaving a finger on the woman's forehead. Point up. "Damn, don't treat me like a kid."

"Aha? Are you sure you want to be here?" With a playful smile on Naomi Watts' face, as if she had succeeded in a prank, she suddenly fell on his shoulder and whispered softly in his ear in one breath. "We haven't tried it in the cinema yet, but my former high school classmates told me that it's very exciting here. Would you like to try it? Boy?"

"Hey, hey, hey!"

Helplessly pushing away the woman's face, Wayne subconsciously looked around, making sure that no one noticed, and then heaved a sigh of relief. "Mad woman, do you want to make a big news that completely detonated North America?"

As long as he thinks of the headlines in tomorrow's newspapers such as "The famous Hollywood director Wayne Greenberg and the famous Hollywood actress Naomi Watts have a dark field battle in the movie theater late at night!", etc., he immediately hit the headlines. shiver.

That's right, this circle is basically full of jerks, and no one is better than the other. People in the circle are looking at each other and making fun of each other. It's hardly news worth reporting, but with the current "Batman: Darkness The popularity of "Knight", if the film director **** on the scene of the competitor's film, then the two of them will definitely become the talk of the whole North America after dinner.

"Ha, coward." Naomi Watts tried her best to endure her laughter. She suddenly felt that occasionally provoking the old man next to him like this would definitely bring a lot of fun to her future life.

"See a movie!"

Wayne stretched out a hand, pressed it on the woman's head, and slammed into the direction of the big screen. At the same time, he also turned his eyes to the big screen again. At the same time, he deliberately lowered his voice and muttered: " When you get back to the hotel, shit, I swear you'll regret it, stupid woman."

While watching the movie, he kept observing the fans' reactions. After the whole movie was over, everyone gave a warm applause for the movie, and they also clapped with the audience's applause. Judging by the fans' reaction to this already packed early stage, the film was at least entertainingly successful.

He led a few people out of the theater in a low-key manner. After getting into the car, Wayne's brows slowly stretched. Based on his movie-watching experience, he can now be sure that this movie is still not out of the curse of Hollywood sequel movies. It is audience word-of-mouth and professional word-of-mouth, and it will definitely decline significantly compared to the previous one, but this does not mean that the box office will be low.

Based on his memory of the first Jurassic Park, he summed up a few particularly important elements. First, the movie has all the excitement, humor, curiosity, boys and girls, and the movie as a whole uses the word "family fun" to the best of what it can do.

Second, the film has always told the audience that violating the laws of nature will definitely not end well in the end. Third, the film has also been showing the greed of human beings. Fourth, the film never deviates from Hollywood's most enduring routine. Human love can overcome everything, and human beings have love. This is demonstrated by the persistence of the protagonists and mutual help.

As for the "Jurassic Park 2" I just watched, compared to the first one, although there are some innovative attempts, basically these four keynotes have not changed at all, and still exist in every aspect of the film. Corner, obviously, Steven Spielberg knows exactly what made the first film a huge success.

But after watching the film in its entirety, Wayne was relieved for his next "Batman: The Dark Knight" and the head-on collision with this film, because according to his current hunch, the box office of this film was completely unsuccessful. It may explode globally like the first one, and it will be very difficult to catch up with Batman, who has created even greater glory.

"Steven wants to express a little more humanistic feelings." Looking at the receding Chicago night scene outside the car window, Wayne muttered to himself in a low voice, attracting the attention of the Australian actress.

"What?" Naomi Watts hugged his arm, took off the baseball cap and threw it aside, and asked curiously, "What's the matter? Do you expect the box office of this big dinosaur to be a threat to us?"

"Nami, in the theater market, or in the commercial field." Wayne shook his head with a laugh, and said, "No one can underestimate Steven! My feelings about the film absolutely cannot represent this film. box office trends.”

Speaking of this, he paused, recalling the shocking picture he had just seen, and commenting: "It's just my personal feeling that Steven's humanistic care added to the film this time is a bit heavy, which may cause him to walk in for a family fun. Some fans of the operation have caused a dislocation of the viewing experience.

Also, notice how real those dinosaurs are? Compared with the first film, this film has made great progress in special effects, but too much emphasis on special effects display will inevitably sacrifice part of the story. This is also the most uncertain place. It is possible that fans will walk in with realistic special effects. In the movie theater, what stories are not stories, in the eyes of this part of the fans, is completely unimportant and not necessarily. Last but not least, compared to the first film, the film does not give the audience enough excitement, nor is it big and strong enough. This is a common problem with sequel films. If you want to continue the success factors of the previous film, there will inevitably be the current situation. Happening. However, these are my personal feelings, word of mouth is very likely to fall, but no one dares to make an assertion about the box office results. "

"It seems that in the past two years, the sequel films produced by Hollywood will lose their reputation among fans, the media, and film critics." Naomi Watts nodded, obviously she had similar feelings, but looked at the man beside her. With a tough face, the Australian actress showed a sweet smile. "Haney, no one can do a better job than you in the sequel space, and The Dark Knight says it all!"

"thanks."

It has become a common phenomenon in Hollywood in the mid-to-late 1990s that there are no good sequels. This has something to do with the production company's conservative production strategy for sequel movies, and it has something to do with the production company's business strategy in the entire circle.

To put it bluntly, there is only one ultimate goal for Hollywood film companies to make movies, and that is to make profits, and the biggest measure to ensure profitability is to continue the elements of films that have already achieved success, whether it is because of the lack of surprises, the old-fashioned story, or the audience's aesthetics. Fatigue is the reason why the so-called sequel is not good.

However, such a business strategy can ensure that the risk of large-scale investment is minimized. Hollywood's previous decades of experience have told the production company that this is the safest way to make money.

The commercial car drove quietly back to the hotel parking lot again. Charles Rowan, who had been standing by the window, finally breathed a sigh of relief. He, the producer, was frightened all night. This is not their home base, Los Angeles, and he has never seen any of them. The billionaire had nothing to do in the middle of the night looking for this kind of stimulation. After confirming that several people had returned safely, he walked into the bedroom and fell asleep.

Time has begun to slowly approach midnight, and the mist in the bathroom of the Hilton Presidential Suite is steaming, and from time to time, a sound like a wild cat roaring can be heard. Occasionally, two slender and white handprints would appear from the fog-shrouded glass, and soon disappear on the glass wall with the sharpness of the sound.

In this bath tonight, the two took a full bath for nearly an hour, and finally ended with the crazy yelling of the Australian actress. The two knew each other very well, and Naomi Watts enjoyed most of the time. A taboo little game, but when she unleashes the beast in a man's heart with her own hands, she switches the provocation to prayer and abuse at a loss.

"f**k, if you hurt me, all subsequent promotions will be in vain, Wayne, you beast!"

The man gently wrapped the woman in a bath towel, picked him up and went to the balcony together, blowing the midnight breeze in Chicago, and hearing the woman gritted her teeth and swearing, he seemed to be unaware of the other's resentment, refreshed. Lighted a cigarette, and enjoyed the spiritual relaxation after indulgence.

Naomi Watts rolled her eyes, adjusted her posture on the reclining chair, stretched out a white arm, rudely snatched the just lit cigarette from the man's mouth, and stuffed it into her own mouth. , imitating the other party's appearance, and taking a big mouthful with a comfortable expression.

In the faint smoke, the Australian actress's white fingers brushed the corners of her eyes. Now this face is absolutely beautiful even without delicate makeup, but every woman knows in her heart that no one can keep her youth forever. , especially her age, which is actually not too young. "Wayne, maybe I should think about my own face, after the expiration date."

"Nami, trust me, your face is more resistant to beatings than most local women in North America." Wayne had just lit his second cigarette, and when he heard the other party's emotion, he raised his head and glanced at the white face in surprise. And those charming blue eyes, who smiled and said, "I swear to God, in a few years, you will be more beautiful than you are now."

In his impression, Naomi Watts is definitely a representative of a late bloomer. When she became famous all over the world, this Australian woman was already over 30 years old, but the image on the big screen, especially Later films such as King Kong are still the dream lovers of countless men all over the world.

Compared with local women in North America, it seems that Australian actresses who come to Hollywood have to fight more in terms of appearance. For example, Mrs. Cruise, for a long time after her divorce from Tom, was called The most poisonous box office poison, but with the passage of time, the woman who has found her place in Hollywood again, and the image on the big screen is far stronger than that of the same period or even the younger generation of local female stars in North America.

"Don't lie to me, boy." Naomi Watts raised her eyebrows happily after listening to him, then rolled her eyes without hesitation. "Everyone gets old, and no one can change the rules of nature. This is more cruel to women than men."

She knows the man around her very well, even if she has a special position in the other's heart, even if she has given birth to a child, but when one day she is really old and there are wrinkles on her face that need to be covered by makeup, the other party will I will definitely choose other youthful and beautiful faces without hesitation, and a youthful and beautiful face will always be the most indispensable thing in Hollywood.

In fact, according to Wayne's past scandalous women, countless gossip media have carefully analyzed the preferences of this young Hollywood boss. When those entertainment paparazzi interviewed Charlize Theron, Jennifer Connelly, etc. After the woman, finally concluded a truth, that is, this man is very specific, so specific that he is only interested in beautiful young girls!

This is not only clear to the woman beside him, but also to Naomi Watts, who is by his side most of the time. No one understands this more thoroughly than an Australian actress. "Don't think too much, Nami." Wayne's eyes gradually narrowed, and he involuntarily began to replay the picture in the bathroom just now, and his eyes began to wander on the woman on the reclining chair, especially the other party is lazy now The delicate temperament is stirring up his tyrannical emotions little by little.

"Damn, what do you want to do?!"

Naomi Watts' eyes widened violently. When she noticed the familiar beast look in the man's eyes, it was too late. Under Wayne's beast-like eyes, the woman sighed helplessly~www.wuxiamtl .com~ She can already imagine what she will face. "f**k! I already regret provoking you in the movie theater tonight, hey..."

Watching the woman slide off the reclining chair and onto the carpet, as if she had taken a bone, Wayne's mouth slowly turned up, sticking out his tongue and licking his lips greedily.

Unlike the exciting scene at the Hilton Chicago in Vice City, in an office in Glendale, DreamWorks Industrial Park, the live-action film production office area, Steven Spielberg is leaning on the sofa, rarely has no choice Go home, even though it's past midnight.

Secretary Sanders walked hurriedly across the corridor, holding a fax document in his hand, stood in front of Steven Spielberg's office, tried to adjust his breathing, and then stretched out his hand, "Boom, thump, thump" Knocked on the door.

"come in."

The voice of a good Jewish man immediately sounded in the office. Secretary Sanders pushed open the door and went directly to the sofa rest area where the other party was.

"Boss, the fax sent by Universal Pictures is a rough statistical report of the early stage of "Jurassic Park 2"." After putting the fax paper on the table, he didn't wait for Steven Spielberg to watch it in person. Sanders, who knew his habits, took the initiative and said:

"Jurassic Park 2 has simultaneously opened 3,215 advance shows in major cities in North America, and the box office according to the theater company's statistics is about 12.4 million US dollars."

"Well, not bad."

Steven Spielberg nodded lightly, this result is indeed a little more than what he and Universal Pictures expected, which shows that the audience is full of expectations for this movie. "Go on."
