"The nominees for Best Director are: Clint Eastwood, "Letter from Iwo Jima", Stephen Freys, "The Queen", Alejandro Gonzalez Iñárritu, "Babel", Martin Scorsese, "Blood Diamond"; Lorraine Nicholson paused and continued to laugh: "Also, Wang Yang, "The Dead". ”

Hearing his name and seeing his smiling face on the big screen, Yang fans cheered and were nominated for the Golden Globe Award for Best Director for two consecutive years! Heath Ledger, Michael Pitt, Natalie and other members of the "Dead" crew are laughing and applauding, I have to say that although they have full trust in Wang Yang, many people in the two crews are relieved, he didn't mess up, they didn't mess up! This is a great life performance.

——!Seeing the familiar face, Keke happily pointed to the TV, and smiled so much that her eyes were bent into crescents: "Dad!!!, haha-" Jessica excitedly raised her index finger to the sky and looked up and smiled...... When the nomination announcement ceremony came to an end, the media rushed to publish reports, and no matter which media manuscript it was, the words "flame movie" could be found in it, because it was once again the big winner of the nomination.

"The Dead" received a lot of awards: Best Picture in the Drama category, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor (Ledger, Pitt), Best Supporting Actor (Nicholson, Wahlberg) 5 categories with a total of 7 nominations. Probably due to the lack of scenes, Natalie and Knightley were not nominated, but there was one less fight.

"Little Sunshine Beauty" also has two nominations for Jin's canon: Best Picture in a Musical/Comedy and Best Supporting Actress (Abigail Jr.). At the same time, with her wonderful performance in "Mamma Mia", Meryl Streep received another nomination for Best Actress in a Musical/Comedy, for her, winning the nomination has long been like a bag, "The Magician" and "Deadly Magic" did not win, but I believe that the Oscars that won the technical awards, several films will play differently.

In addition, in the TV category, the big scene comedy "The Big Bang Theory" continued to make achievements in the Best Actor in a Musical/Comedy Series, with Jim Parsons once again in the competition, "Desperate Housewives" was nominated for Best Musical Series and Best Actress in a Musical/Comedy Series (Marcia Krauss, Felicity Hoffman), and the phenomenal new drama "Firefly" was successfully selected for Best Actor in a Drama Series and Best Actor in a Drama Series (Nathan Fillian).

The Flame won 10 nominations in the film category and 9 nominations in the TV category at this year's Golden Globe Awards, a total of 19 nominations, maintaining a strong awards season! You must know that these nominations include four ultimate awards, which naturally means that it is at the highest level in terms of film, television production and distribution.

"The Dead" and "Babel", which won 7 nominations, led the list, and the second place was "Dream Girl" with 5 nominations. Everyone knows that "The Dead" would be a film history classic if it weren't for the collective dizziness of the judges! Yahoo user Rosemary sighed, "Oh my God, it's unbelievable that this was shot at the same time! Is there anything else that can stop the crazy magic Young?!" Marissa said, "You just can't stop liking him, Amazing Director!" ...... "Amazing Director" The nomination performance was not good, only entering the race for Best Screenplay, and David Fincher still failed to receive his first Golden Globe nomination for Best Director. However, what will happen to it at the Oscars in the future is far from being conclusive, after all, it has not yet been released, and many film critics, academy members, and union members have not seen it, and if it is a good movie, the effect it creates is certainly not low.

But for now, the first round of "The Dead" VS "Fantastic Director" is, of course, Wang Yangsheng.

Yahoo Entertainment made a special report with the title of "Amazing Yang Storm Again!", the 26-year-old Amazing Young has already been nominated for 4 Golden Globes for Best Director (2/4), which is not crazy, and the judges must have a headache when casting their votes; "Los Angeles Times", "New York Times", "Washington Post", "San Francisco Chronicle" and other media have reported on the country; early in the morning, many smiling filmmakers have been interviewed by the media and expressed their feelings.

"I'm excited and happy, it's really incredible. Heath Ledger, who has been nominated for the best actor in the drama category for two consecutive years, was chased by flashes non-stop, he said some feelings, and especially praised and thanked Wang Yang: "I think everything started when they found me to shoot "Brokeback Mountain", and Yang made me change too much. On the outlook, he said: "I'm playing against good opponents, especially I know best how difficult Michael Pitt is, playing with them makes things uncertain and I want to win trophies." ”

If Magical Yang has changed anything about him, then there must be a side to be touched, although he will also giggle on stage, but in an interview with the media, he is obviously a lot more at ease.

"Now I feel like I'm in a dream, it's something I've been looking forward to and working on, and I can't believe it. Michael Pitt, who was nominated for such a major award for the first time, was very touched and expressed his feelings in disbelief, saying: "I immediately sent Jan a text message of thanks and congratulations, and he gave me this, and I am not polite! I owe him so much." On the question of outlook, he said: "I don't know, my mind is blank right now, and I haven't digested the news yet." I just think everybody has what it takes to win an award, and I know best how great Heath Ledger's performance is. ”

Fans and fans have to sigh, they have all learned the magic Yang's speaking style, which is like a confession in advance.

"It's very nice to see that 'The Dead' got seven nominations, we went through a lot of difficulties and now it seems to be doing well. Wang Yang, who holds three nominations, also accepted an interview with the Los Angeles Times, saying: "I can't help but thank everyone in the crew for their efforts, it is really not easy to complete the film in such a short preparation period, filming period and post-production period, especially "Infernal Affairs" is an excellent film, it is like putting a big mountain in front of us, we have to climb it! It drives us forward." ”

With this list of nominations being sung by the media, fans and fans across the Taiwan Strait and three places in China are very proud and expectant, "Infernal Affairs" is "Infernal Affairs", and as soon as it goes to Hollywood, it will lead the Golden Globe Awards, which is really awesome!

Flame Films has already sent copies of "The Dead" to the MPAA and relevant agencies around the world for review, and it has not accidentally received an R rating, which is far from NC-17 and PG-13.

The State Administration of Radio, Film and Television of China is a part of the sneak peek, in fact, Flame and China Film have long negotiated that there are no political issues, and they will be introduced if they violate relevant laws and regulations, and the most illegal thing in the 125-minute video is a lot of foul language, but it can be omitted when making subtitles, and the final result is to cut some violent scenes that "do not affect the overall appearance" for a total of more than two minutes, and it is determined to land on the big screen in the mainland, which is a unique member of the Chinese New Year film.

However, "I Am Legend" has encountered big trouble, there has never been a precedent for the introduction of zombie films in the mainland film market, and the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television does not like post-apocalyptic genre films even more, the whole world is finished, how about China? Therefore, news such as "mainland audiences may not be able to participate in "I Am Legend" has come out several times, and the spokesman of China Film News replied that any problems will not be known until the review of the film, and it is not possible to talk about the final determination at present.

And the leaders are working on it, and several meetings have been held for this. It was clear that the consequences of their discussion would affect FF's promotional strategy and work on I Am Legend in Asia and globally.

For example, a series of promotional posters for "I Am Legend" was recently released, and the flame adopted a strategy of adapting to local conditions, selecting Hong Kong, Tokyo Tower, London Bridge, Seoul, Eiffel Tower, Madrid's Cibeles Square, Taipei Chiang Kai-shek Memorial Hall and other places, showing the devastation and desolation of these attractions after the apocalypse, so that audiences around the world can feel the imminent sense of crisis of the coming apocalypse. If it could, Flame would also like to make a Pearl Tower in Shanghai, as well as a ...... in Beijing The North American weekly box office champion from December 8 to 14 belongs to the 20.2 million "Apocalypse", Mel Gibson's new work not only does not have the explosive power of "The Passion of the Christ" two years ago, but the Rotten Tomatoes index is only 65%/58%/79%, and Bowei is quite disappointed.

The runner-up was "Deadly Magic", which continued to have 2,879 theaters in the second week, and its box office trend fell -45.3%, closing 19.56 million, with a total of 55.32 million in North America, and "Love Holiday" in third place, the star-studded blockbuster production suffered a fiasco, although it had a 47%/47%/81% index that was satisfied with the audience, and its first-week box office was only 17.11 million, and Sony/Columbia could only hope that it would perform well in overseas markets.

However, what is even worse is the 100 million production fee of "Blood Diamond", an R-rated adventure movie with Scorsese + Leonardo, received a 92%/90%/90% applause from Rotten Tomatoes, Scorsese was praised as returning to the top, but its opening week box office was 16.58 million, and the average single theater in 1910 theaters was $8,680, and the general public did not seem to be interested in the heavy proposition of African diamond smuggling. However, with such a good reputation, and it has not yet landed in an overseas market, Warner Bros. is still hopeful, and it will be satisfied with a global box office of 200 million.

Time entered the week of 15-21, the Christmas atmosphere became more and more intense, "Dragon Knight" and "Charlotte's Web" were released one after another, and then on this day, countless fans and audiences poured into the cinema, and "Fantastic Director" has been opened!

"Please give me two copies of "The Fantastic Director"!", "I want one!" The fat conductor collects money and hands the tickets to customers a little mechanically, two, one, two, four...... He suddenly realized that the woman just now was a little familiar, it was Natalie Portman!?

The PG-13 drama biopic was screened in 2,850 theaters throughout North America, and the tickets sold could be bundled into bundles, and these audiences included fans such as Evelyn, Claire, Alice, film critics, Yang You, and even some Yang Hei, of course, a large part of the general audience who would go to see the movie, because this well-known biography is very interesting. If you divide it according to the age stage, there are definitely most young people, whether it is an older young man as old as the magical director, or a young man like the 98 version of the magical director.

Wang Yang has been very competitive recently, and the nomination performance of "The Dead" has naturally pushed up the popularity of "Fantastic Director", and its gold content must not be said to be much, the youngest and second youngest Oscar Best Director, the most box office appeal of the Amazing Director, the youngest billionaire, the youngest ...... There are also flame movie bosses whose miracle business is getting bigger and bigger, and trendy figures in the IT industry that cannot be ignored...... As Time magazine said, he is a living legend. Not only that, but he is an iconic figure of Asian Americans in the United States, and even an epoch-making figure of Asian Americans around the world, who has broken a lot of racial prejudice labels and redefined the image of Asian American boys, just like People magazine said "millions of girls across the United States want to marry him", maybe a lot less.

The story of the film is the supernatural phenomenon that this generation has experienced together, even if more than 8 years have passed now, countless people still clearly remember how in just a few weeks, how "Ghost Record" exploded, how it plunged the whole United States into a frenzy, and all the young people crowded the theater!

And Wang Yang is not a director, he is already an American idol and one of the most shining public figures in this country. Such a magical director, how did he face difficulties and setbacks, how did he create all this, and how did the triangular scandal story between him and his current wife and best friend not interest people?

is precisely like this, especially Magical Yang has a well-known public image and is a charming person, how to portray "Wang Yang" in "Magical Director" has been a big problem from the beginning, and the selection of actors is the most difficult.

At the beginning, the crew searched for a long time, and finally selected a new Chinese actor through a large-scale audition activity, a 19-year-old young man named Alan Leung, a second-generation immigrant from Chinese mainland, a top student at Brown University, but not performing arts, but finance and business.

Like many actors' stories, Alan Leung has loved acting since he was a child, has some experience in community and high school stage plays, and ran the acting club when he had the opportunity in college, and then it was different, but not rich, he didn't think about becoming an actor or a star or anything, if it wasn't for this audition event, he might not have appeared on the big screen for the rest of his life, but now it's different.

"Ken Leung's brother?" asked a netizen at the time, of course not, Alan Leung is a tall and handsome guy, otherwise "The Amazing Director" would not have chosen him, but more importantly, his acting talent, confidence and courage, these traits completely moved David Fincher.

After officially signing this film contract, Alan Liang suddenly became a high-profile college student from an ordinary college student, and the first thing that came was questioning, picky, joking, and mocking, not as handsome as Wang Yang, not as strong as Wang Yang, and not as good as Wang Yang...... Yang fans and fans have given a lot of pressure, and only a small number of fans are satisfied. However, Alan Liang is a very low-key person, who has been silently under pressure from all sides, and he understands that only by playing the idol Miraculous Yang well will he be recognized by others.

For "The Amazing Director", Wang Yang's initial attitude was cold, not authorizing, not cooperating, and not providing any help, but he is not a person who can't afford to play, he is just worried that this movie will cause trouble and trouble to his family and friends, otherwise it is a cool thing. But the wood has been completed, and after the actor selection was determined, his attitude gradually changed, and he didn't say that he was interested, but he had a conversation with Alan Leung.

In that conversation, he didn't say anything about his mentality at the time, or what kind of person Wang Yang was in 1998, no. Because he understands that "The Fantastic Director" does not need a documentary-style Wang Yang, but a dramatic Wang Yang, Ben Mezrich and Alan Sorkin's "Wang Yang" under the microphone of David Fincher, his suggestions will only cause trouble for the kid, and even too much conversation. So Zhen Wang Yang just focused on encouragement: "Play well!"

This is another non-action Asian protagonist film after "MIT-21-TEAM", with a production cost of 50 million yuan hitting a new high in one fell swoop, and the role positioning is a "leader", a non-white protagonist falling in love on the big screen and playing prestige, which is really a big breakthrough.

If it doesn't cause any trouble, or a small trouble that is not serious, Wang Yang is very happy to see the success of "The Amazing Director", and even more happy to see that Alan Liang can continue to act, grow into an excellent actor, and let the big screen and small screen have more positive Asian faces. Besides, he knows that he will always shoot some Chinese-themed stories, and it will not be enough to have only one Daniel Wu at that time.

There are many people in the cast list of "Fantastic Director", except for Wang Yang, everyone is naturally not Zachary Levy, or anyone, but the two young and charming heroines.

Playing Jessica and Rachel is not a good thing, although it can win the name of "Little Jessica" and "Little Rachel", it may incur very serious consequences, first, offend the Wang Yang Gang, but Hollywood is so big, there are so many independent film companies, who will offend whom? Mason Gible, who offended the entire Jewish Gang, continued to make "Apocalypse", popularity is important, and in everyone's opinion, Magic Young will not be so stingy, he understands the difference between an actor and a producer.

So what's more serious is, second, what kind of impact will this character bring? You must know that it is not Hepburn, Monroe, Garbo and those who have died, but the super popular Hua Dan who is in her golden age!

There was no such situation before, no one knows how it will be, but agents generally believe that this is a drama and not a parody show, and it is not the prototype that gives the soul of the character, it is the screenwriter, director and actor, and there is no need to worry about not being able to get rid of the influence or being called "so-and-so imitator", on the contrary, "The Amazing Director" can bring fame that makes people become big stars, even if the movie is messed up or even the acting is messed up, look at Meghan Fox!

At that time, the 19-year-old Camilla Baylor defeated Nina Dubov and others to win the role of Jessica. Camilla, who was born as a child star, became the protagonist in a baby milk powder commercial at the age of nine months, and then a children's advertising model, took over her first TV work at the age of seven, and had a screen performance at the age of nine.

However, Camila Baylor is not so bad, this year she starred in the horror film "Calling" for the first time as a heroine received 47.86 million North American box office / 66.96 million global box office, relative to the production fee of 15 million, it is naturally a member of the successful ranks.

When it comes to youth and beauty, Camilla is competent enough, but her Jessica's temperament type is quite different, at least her smile is not sweet, which has become a controversial topic among fans, but "Fantastic Director" is obviously pursuing a controversial effect, its promotion has never stopped, and it has won a lot of attention with a small cost, and controlling Magic Young is equivalent to controlling popularity, which means that no matter what you do, it will have a good effect.

And in the role of Rachel, Ashley Tisdale became the winner, this 21-year-old young actress has the same temperament as Rachel in some aspects, she is also a child star, the campus queen "Regana George" in "Mean Girl" is the peak of her current acting career, and she also starred in "Death Hallucination" that was bought out and released by Flame before, fans questioned her, is whether her acting skills can play Rachel well?

"Hey, hey!" the screening room was almost full, and Natalie sat down with a large bucket of popcorn on her face, smiling wickedly and wearing a peaked hat, as if afraid that someone would recognize her. She promised Wang Yang that she would think about it and probably not watch this movie...... Amazing Jan, Amazing Jan, sorry!

Never underestimate a gossip heart, especially the people you know, the Yang Friends group has called friends into the theater, and the Flame employees, they will not miss the majestic deeds of the BOSS...... Soon, the screening room gradually fell silent, and the audience looked at the big screen with anticipation on their faces, and the screening began!
