Generally speaking, it is Hollywood movies that get more attention in entertainment news than TV series.

Even the most popular "Friends", when it was broadcast, its share in media reports was far less than that of movies of the same period.

Movies are the core of the entertainment industry!

Even if it is a TV station, the ratings when it is shown are much higher than that of TV dramas.

However, "Band of Brothers" is obviously the most special one.

USA Today: "People in the past never imagined that Hollywood superstars like Steven Spielberg, Donn Walker, and Tom Hanks would get into the TV shows. In the past, people never thought that anyone would dare to shoot a TV series with an investment comparable to a special effects blockbuster, but all this happened in front of my eyes, "Band of Brothers" let me witness it!"

"Entertainment Weekly": "In the past, the TV drama market has always played the leading role in the four magic weapons of love, criminal investigation, legal affairs and medical treatment. There is no doubt that the emergence of "Band of Brothers" has pried out a new world for these 'giant dramas' with grand narratives!"

"Audiovisual Club": "From "Saving Private Ryan", to "Pearl Harbor", to "Band of Brothers", the filming of war dramas has taken on a new definition. Realistic shooting, never beautifying the attitude of war, praising heroes but basing on the spirit of anti-war, this is the correct value orientation. To face history squarely, we must first start by respecting history, and the attitude of "Band of Brothers" is worthy of recognition. ”

Even the authoritative "New York Times" used unusually high-profile remarks to praise the miniseries: "There will be no more drama in the world that can represent the 'war drama' more than 'Band of Brothers'." There is no doubt that "Band of Brothers" has redefined the grammar of war dramas and is bound to become a milestone in the history of American dramas. ”

Even "Film Review", which has always only reported movies and has a very serious specialization, spent a lot of space describing the first episode of "Band of Brothers"-

"Brothers, that is, Company E of the 101st Airborne Division, a total of 140 people. 10 episodes of 1 hour TV series, how to distribute the scenes, how to combine points and faces, these are all difficult problems to be solved. Thankfully, the production team did a great job, and the way the character archetype interviews led to the beginning of each episode was very immersive, and the flashbacks made sense. ”

"The first episode of "Band of Brothers" mainly introduced the hero E Company, and the first non-commissioned officer to break away from E Company, Captain Sober. As one of the most special beings of E Company, Captain Sauber's training method laid a solid foundation for the future of E Company to a large extent, but his incompetence and character problems in actual combat made him unpopular until he was transferred out of the company. ”

The handling of this character in the play adopts the technique of first promoting and then suppressing. At the beginning, the devil's training and strict management made people think of 'devil good instructor', and then in the actual combat training stage, his ineffectiveness and the character of excluding non-commissioned officers were exposed one after another. ”

Such a two-sided role also makes the military training mode expected in the first episode not monotonous. In response to the first sentence, it is also expected that the first episode is suddenly filled with soldiers, and it is difficult to identify most of them at once, except for Captain Sauber, Lieutenant Winters, and a few familiar faces. ”

"Of course, there are a lot of close-ups, but the switching between shots is also very fast. The first episode was supposed to be a good introduction to the battlefield part that followed, and the first episode did a really good job. The final 10 minutes of pre-battle waiting are the highlight of the film. ”

Lieutenant Winters pulled the team members to board one by one, and the sight of the British troops, as well as the silhouette of the airplanes in the sunset, finally connected the fate of E Company to the background of the first major airborne landing of World War II. All emotions are in place, and the magnificent part of the European battlefield is officially kicked off - the Normandy landings!"

……

On September 10, "Band of Brothers" landed on major entertainment media and became the most watched cultural phenomenon of the day.

Don just picked out a few important reports and read them, and reacted.

It's Monday, he's going to send little Taylor home early, and she's going to school.

Along the way, Don En kept a straight face and reprimanded her sternly: "How many times have you told you, other people's rooms can't be broken into, why can't you remember?"

Little Taylor muttered, "I don't see it again." ”

"You!" Tang En knotted angrily, "If you talk back, I'll tell your mother that you have no pocket money for three weeks!"

"It's not fair!"

Little Taylor's eyes turned red instantly.

Don said, "I'm an adult, you're a child, you have to listen to me, that's the greatest fairness!

"Wrong. ”

Little Taylor flattened the corners of his mouth and twitched his little nose.

"Be louder!"

"I'm wrong, I'm wrong, I'm wrong, can't I?" little Taylor burst into tears.

Tang En was a little distressed, but he was ruthless, "Will you dare in the future?"

"Don't dare!"

Little Taylor replied weakly, and I felt sorry for the aggrieved look.

Sending her home, Andrea saw the two tear streaks on her cheeks, and knew that she must have made a mistake, her face sank, and she began to teach her a lesson, "What's the matter?

Little Taylor burst into tears with a "wow", "Bad guys, you're all bad guys, you guys are bullying people together!"

Tang En's heart was entangled, and he hurriedly took a few steps forward and hugged her in his arms, "Okay, okay, this matter is over, let's not mention it, okay?"

Andrea looked hesitant.

Tang En didn't hide it, and said quickly: "Last night, my friends and I ...... When she was in the room, she didn't knock on the door, and suddenly broke in. ”

"What?"

Andrea was shocked.

Losing etiquette is a problem, and seeing some pictures that are inappropriate for children is even more problematic!

Tang En touched his nose and hurriedly said, "The situation at that time...... It's okay, but the etiquette can't be lost. ”

Andrea breathed a sigh of relief.

Don patted little Taylor on the back, feeling that this matter was too harsh on her, and coaxed gently: "Okay, don't cry, what gift do you want, can I give it to you?"

"Don't!" little Taylor sniffed, sobbing sadly.

"That'...... When it's the weekend, can I take you out and play? Where do you want to go?"

At this moment, little Taylor's crying immediately stopped, and the misty eyes suddenly bloomed with a rainbow of brilliance, "Really?"

"Really!"

"Not lying?"

"No lie!"

"I'm going to Disneyland! You've never taken me there!"

Don's face changed suddenly.

Disneyland ......

When Tang En travels, he must bring a lot of bodyguards, and so many people will definitely attract attention.

But his relationship with Disney ......

It's a bit tricky!

Andrea saw Donn's embarrassment, frowned, and said, "Baby, this is not good!"

"No, I'm going to Disneyland!"

"Okay, okay, that's Disneyland. Don reached out and wiped the tears from her face, "You're happy, don't cry, I'll take you there at the end of the week!"

"Oh also!"

Little Taylor raised his arms excitedly and jumped up with joy.

Andrea was both happy and emotional to see Don doting on her so much.

Every family has a scripture that is difficult to read. Her husband, Scott Swift, Taylor's father, usually works in New York and lives separately, and the couple have had many conflicts.

Especially the part of Wall Street in Manhattan is rotten, dirty, ugly, mercenary, sexual, drug, gambling, violence, bastards, everything.

Scott Swift, a mature middle-aged man with a net worth of tens of millions, can he survive loneliness?

"Hey!"

Andrea sighed in her heart, she really couldn't be sure whether moving to Los Angeles was right or wrong for her family.

On the right side, the family conditions are obviously better, Taylor Jr. studied in the best private schools, studied music from the best musicians, and was still a "good friend" of Donn Walker.

On the wrong side, the integrity of this family, I am afraid that there will be cracks.

……

Today is September 10th.

Back at the office, Donn received detailed reports faxed from Comcast and STA.

Currently, STA TV has a total of 10.72 million paid subscribers. The first episode of "Band of Brothers" last night had an average viewing of 12.86 million users, and at its peak, it exceeded 14.38 million household users!

In addition, last night, a total of 6.5 million home subscribers used Starz's first-month free trial service.

If Band of Brothers succeeds in capturing the hearts of these users, then STA may add millions of subscribers in the coming week!

According to Comcast's prediction, because of the strong response and huge impact of the premiere of "Band of Brothers", STA will increase its subscribers by another 5 million in the coming week!

STA's forecast is a bit more conservative, with the number of subscribers added to be between 4.2 million and 4.5 million.

Even Comcast boldly made a language, professional cable TV station, will start from September 9, 2001, into the mainstream of television, out of control.

Everything I expected was very good.

But Don knew that this beauty would definitely come to naught.

Professional cable TV will rise, but it will never be so easy.

Tomorrow, the "911 incident" will break out, and the whole United States will be plunged into unprecedented panic and shock.

Even most of the entertainment activities have to be canceled because of this.

The second episode of "Band of Brothers" will not be able to be broadcast this weekend and will have to be postponed for a week.

Because the second episode is a vigorous Normandy landing, and the explosion scene is very brutal, doesn't this rub salt into the wounds of the American people?

In a short period of time, STA subscribers will definitely fall into lag.

Fortunately, "Band of Brothers" has a total of 10 episodes, and it will be broadcast for more than two months, which is enough time. ()
