Hollywood Starts with Animation

"Hollywood starts with animation ( to find the latest chapters!

James Jacks smirked: "Mr. Wald, then we'll talk next time."

Zhu Keli ignored him.

Jack didn't say anything cruel at the moment, and Bridge quietly left.

"Zuke, it's still hard for you. Tsk tsk tsk ~ I can see, his James Jacks face is really ugly." Lasseter laughed.

Zhuke waved his hand and said, "It's nothing, just a small episode."

At this moment, Peter Jackson, the director of "Lord of the Rings", arrived.

At the same time, the actor Frodo played by Ilya Wood, Gandalf played by Ian McLean, Aragon played by Vigo Mortensen, and Legolas played by Orlando Bu Rum...

The main actors of the whole play are here.

"Mr. Wald, long time no see."

Others saw Zhu Ke somewhat restrained, but Vigo Mortensen, the actor of Aragon, was not so timid, after all, the two were old acquaintances.

Zhuke patted him on the shoulder and said, "Last time we were together, I remember it was the Oscars. A few months have passed. Good guy, you have a big beard. This reminds me of the time. It’s the scene when we filmed "Spartan 300"."

Mortensen nodded, showing a look of nostalgia,

He said: "I have always thanked Mr. Wald for choosing me, otherwise I would not have a chance to play King Leonida."

Full of sincerity.

After some chatting, Zhuke focused his attention on the Elf Prince Legolas, oh~no~, to be precise, it was the actor Orlando Bloom.

I have to say that he is indeed handsome enough!

Looking at Hollywood in the late 1990s and early 21st century, there are only two actors who can become hot idol stars by virtue of their "prosperous beauty" alone.

Among them, Orlando is hailed as the first male vase in Hollywood!

Also known as the beginning of the Hollywood traffic star!

"Mr. Wald, nice to meet you!"

Orlando bent over and shook hands with Zucker, with a very humble attitude.

"Yes, not bad~"

Zhu Ke didn't say much at the moment, but encouraged a few words.

quickly......

The trial film of "The Lord of the Rings 1" movie will officially open, and the movie will be played.

The plot in the early stage of the film is relatively plain, but the warm, peaceful, serene, and beautiful environment of the hometown where the Hobbits live in the film, spread out like a landscape painting, still amazes everyone.

Lasseter whispered: "Zuke, I have a foreboding that New Zealand's tourism industry is going to take off."

Zhuke nodded: "That's for sure."

The subsequent movie plot is a personal appearance.

Gandalf, Sam, Yawen, Legolas, Elf King, Son of Man...

The story of the Fellowship Team officially kicked off. Humans, elves, hobbits, warcrafts, and dwarves have staged a magnificent and heart-wrenching epic magical blockbuster together.

......

A certain restaurant.

After the film preview of "Lord of the Rings 1", Zhuke and Lasseter declined the invitation of the organizer's new line to dinner, and instead came to this restaurant for dinner.

"Zuke, the "Lord of the Rings" movie is really amazing."

"I dare to say that this is the best epic epic I have seen in recent years."

"I can already imagine that once the movie is released, it will definitely catch everyone's attention. Also, you have to make a lot of money, tusk~After all, Weta Digital has successfully completed all the computer special effects of the movie."

"This year's December schedule is definitely very lively!"

Since watching the movie, Lasseter has been completely immersed in the majestic atmosphere of the movie, and the whole person is chattering endlessly.

Zhu Ke nodded heavily and said: "This year's box office champion must be "Lord of the Rings"!"

"Uh, how sure?" Lasseter was a little surprised.

"You do not believe?"

"I don't believe it, I admit that the "Lord of the Rings" movie is very good, but if you want to say that it is the box office champion of this year, I am not too sure. Don't forget, there is Pixar's "Monster Electric Company" during Thanksgiving in November. , You subscribed to Waterworld Animation’s "Flying House Globe", and the Colombian war blockbuster "Black Hawk Down" in December..."

Lasseter laughed: "This year's blockbuster movies are many, many, I don't think "Lord of the Rings" can take the lead."

Suddenly, Zhuke burst into laughter.

"You said "Black Hawk Down"?!"

Others don't know, but Zhu Ke knows a lot as a traverser.

The film "Black Hawk Down" is a war-type film released by Sony Columby in 2001. It is directed by the director Ridley Scott who filmed "Gladiator", Josh Harnett, Starring Ivan McGregor and Tom Seizmore...

The film tells the story of the 1993 Somali War. The US military engaged in protracted street fighting with Somali armed militias due to intelligence errors.

This is just a small mission composed of Army Rangers, Delta Forces, and some SEALs, with a total of about 150 people. The mission was completed within one hour. Unexpectedly, it was attacked by the local army and turned into a 15-hour long mission. The story of the fight between the trapped beasts.

The total production cost is as high as 90 million U.S. dollars, and the publicity cost exceeds 80 million U.S. dollars!

It is the largest film invested by Columbia in 2001.

Before the movie was released, the director Ridley Scott threatened: ""Black Hawk Down" will surely shock the world. The cruel and real battle scenes will surely give everyone an immersive look and feel."

He was right!

His shot was so successful!

Successfully interpreted the cruelty, bloody, ruthlessness, and coldness of the war...perfectly.

It is an out-and-out war movie!

but!

It's not in time!

Before the release of "Black Hawk Down", it coincided with the outbreak of 9/11 in the United States, just as the people of the United States were immersed in grief~www.novelmtl.com~ You suddenly came here and opened the scars of the war directly.

Haha, it turned out to be cold!

Columbia, the producer of "Black Hawk Down", has a blood loss!

Director Ridley Scott was almost suspected of life.

"Zuke, don’t believe me. I just participated in the film trial of "Black Hawk Down" a few days ago. It is undoubtedly a very exciting movie. I don’t think it is inferior to "Lord of the Rings", and it’s even being restored. In terms of the real battlefield, it is even better."

Lasseter said: "I think "Black Hawk Down" has the potential to become the box office champion this year!"

"Yes, yes, you are right."

Zhuke's attitude was perfunctory.

......

A few days later.

Zhu Ke has the good news from New Zealand!

John Lasseter is so right, and Zucker is about to make a fortune again.

Since the trial film of "Lord of the Rings 1" ended, Hollywood studios, large and small, have been very interested in Weta Digital.

"The special effects of the movie are amazing."

"It is said that the cost of special effects for the entire movie is only 30 million US dollars!"

"Tsk tusk tusk~ If this is done by replacing Industrial Light & Magic, I don't think it will cost 50 million US dollars, and the effect will definitely not come out."

For the first time, the level of special effects of Weta Digital is truly shown in front of everyone.

In just a few days, Weta Digital welcomed a large number of Hollywood studios to visit. Moreover, there is no shortage of signing a contract for special effects production on the spot.

George Lucas, the owner of Industrial Light & Magic, didn't care at first, but now he is shocked.

Since then, Industrial Light and Magic and Weta Digital are the world's top special effects companies, and the grievances between the two companies have kicked off.
