Chapter 409: Well Done!
Because of "500 Days with Shamo", the entertainment gossip media has been increasingly enthusiastic about excavating Wang Yang's past love history, and there are even magazines offering him handwritten love letters, group photos and other love items at high prices, hoping that his former girlfriend can't resist the temptation and stand up to expose more fierce information for the majority of gossip lovers. According to an insider found on the People-Magazine website, Wang Yang has officially fallen in love with about 7 girlfriends, and has refused many girls' dating invitations.
At the beginning, the market was 3, and now it has risen to 7, and it is not clear whether there is an insider, but this at least fully proves for fans that Wang Yang is a man who likes women, not a homosexual who likes men.
In recent days, TBBT fans have been surprised by the news that Jim Parsons, the new Emmy Award-winning comedy star "Sheldon Cooper", is suspected to have come out of the closet, and the incident is because he went shopping and had dinner with his male friends, and seems to be in a good mood after winning the award, Parsons and her boyfriend do not hide their intimate behavior at all. The intimacy between the two was photographed by the paparazzi, and the media took the opportunity to expose the rumors that Parsons was gay, but the parties Parsons and his agency team did not respond to this, and their attitude was tantamount to acquiescence.
Regarding Jim Parsons's coming out, the "Big Bang Theory" crew also did not make a statement, which is somewhat unmanageable, it is impossible to restrict his personal freedom to date his boyfriend, but this will not have any impact on the ratings, Sheldon is not George Clooney, and of course the crew is happy that Parsons did not admit it publicly.
"It doesn't matter to me, what I care about is the series. This represents the attitude of a large number of TBBT fans, and "respect him, bless him!" with only a few conservatives expressing disappointment and disgust. But there are still a large number of people who are clearly distinguishing between inside and outside the play, and "The Big Bang Theory", which started broadcasting SE2 on September 28 and EP02 on September 29, still achieved full success, with an average rating of more than 20 million viewers for the two episodes, and continued to burst into laughter on the screen every Thursday night.
Coincidentally, Wentworth Miller, another popular TV actor who is also praised by Miraculous Yang, is also suspected of being gay, because the media can never find out that he has a girlfriend! The paparazzi have taken some street photos of him and his male friends who seem to be dating. But unlike Parsons, Miller was quick to deny the rumors in an interview with the media, claiming that he was not gay, but that he was too busy at work to have a girlfriend.
It is true that everyone in the crew of "Prison Break" has never seen a woman come to visit him, but this does not mean that he is gay, and the facts are only clear to the parties concerned for the time being.
"The 62nd Venice Film Festival ended, and "Brokeback Mountain" won the Golden Lion Award"
This is already the news on September 10, Italian time at the beginning of the month, the stars of the water city are shining as usual this year, "Brokeback Mountain", "Uniform Lovers", "Immortal Gardener", "Good Night, Good Luck" and other films participated, Heath Ledger once again confirmed that he is a smart person and a fool, the "Brothers Grimm" in the competition has more or less become a laughing stock, and the premiere of "Brokeback Mountain" won the Golden Lion Award (Best Picture) in one fell swoop!
At the premiere on the same day, director Ang Lee attended with his wife and two sons, and the three leading actors Heath Ledger, Jake Gyllenhaal, and Anne Hathaway also dressed up to attend the meeting, and Gyllenhaal's ex-girlfriend Kristen Dunst followed him as his female companion and also announced the news that the two were back together; and starring and Ledger's fiancée Michelle Williams stayed in New York because of her big belly. When the limousine arrived at the venue, the screams of the fans were heard one after another, and the spotlights of the media reporters flickered non-stop.
"Brokeback Mountain" did not disappoint in the end, the film's interpretation of Jack and Ennis's deep and painful love impressed the audience, the applause and cheers in the venue lasted for nearly ten minutes after the screening, Anne Hathaway was so excited that she cried and couldn't help herself for a long time, Heath Ledger and Jake Gyllenhaal embraced Ang Lee passionately, and "Brokeback Mountain" has been accompanied by questioning, ridicule and teasing all the way in the past two years, even if there is the full support of the fire movie, has the protection of a magical aura, and it is fake to have no pressure, and for the success of the film, the eyes of the three people are filled with tears.
According to Italian media reports, the atmosphere was warm and moving, which can be described as the best of this Venice Film Festival.
The unveiled mystery of "Brokeback Mountain" has been widely praised by European film critics, some say that this is a wonderful texture and heartbreaking romance film, and some say that this is a subversive western cowboy film, Ang Lee uses gentle and delicate emotions to turn the cold original book and the West into a cup of warm boiled water, and the film's temperament shaping and emotional grasp between gay men show that two men are in love, unlike in the past, gay films were still a man and a woman's emotional treatment.
This also gives the audience a very new and authentic atmosphere, and there is no doubt that this effect needs to be credited with Ledger and Gyllenhaal, whose performances have been well received, especially Ledger, who has reached the point of being superb, as well as Ang Lee's profound directing skills, touching script and story, beautiful cinematography comparable to landscape painting, and evocative soundtrack...... All of them are the focus of praise from European film critics.
When the news of the rave reviews for "Brokeback Mountain" and then the Golden Lion Award came back to North America, the media and the public were in an uproar! Those doubts gradually dissipated untenably, it could not be a joke made by the Italians, right? Poison Ang Lee turned over, Ledger and several other leading actors seemed to have made a wise rather than stupid performance decision, and Marvelous Young proved that his head was an incredibly good head before it was hit by the ceiling...... Despite this success, the Flame Films, which didn't make a big splash for "Brokeback Mountain," have kept a low profile, and the film won't be available to North American audiences until December, and will continue to participate in various film festivals.
But its big splash at the Venice Film Festival has already put a lot of pressure on the conservative team in the United States, and they won't sit idly by! "Brokeback Mountain" don't expect to be fully released in the United States, boycott, boycott, boycott!
However, fans are more concerned about the pattern of the 05-06 awards season, after a summer, only "Firefly" has the ability to attack the awards season, and it can even be said to be the absolute ability to dominate the sweep;
In late September, the fourth large-scale screening of this year's new film "Dance Out of My Life 2" landed in 2,816 North American theaters on September 23 and won the North American weekly box office champion from September 23 to 29.
Two years ago, the first film in the series, "Dance Out of My Life", had a rotten 35% freshness in film reviews, but with 90% likes and 80.26 million North American box office/138.3 million global box office surprise results, as well as considerable DVD and soundtrack CD sales, this 15 million cost song and dance movie has naturally launched a sequel. Anne Fletcher continued to direct, starring new actors Brianna Ivegan, Robert Hoffman and others, and the production cost of "Step-Up 2" only rose by 5 million to 20 million, almost all because of the rising value of the crew.
Facts show how well the rise is worthwhile, "Dance Out of My Life 2" beat out the 31.1 million (average $9,085 per theater of 3,424 theaters) of Bo Wei's new action thriller "Air Crisis" and won the championship with 38.03 million box office (average $13,506 per theater)!
However, it continued the style of low reviews and high audience reviews, with Rotten Tomatoes both freshness dropping to a record low of 30% (16/52), with the Boston Globe's Wesley Morris scoring a 2/4: "Only the part where people are dancing can be seen." USA Today's Claudia Pugh gave a 2/4: "The dance scenes feel good, but the performances and dialogues of this story are pathetic, lacking in clichés of surprise novelty." Elizabeth Wiezman of the New York Daily News commented: "Totally predictable. ”…… Critics think it's just a boring movie with a tale and dancing all the time, but audiences go into theaters just to see the hot and exciting dance, with 85% likes (26,834 ratings), and user film critic Bethany Murphy says, "I love it all!"
This is simply a repeat of "Step-Up" two years ago, and it also ended the "5 consecutive wins" of the flame movie, but there is no doubt that "Step-Up 2" is another commercial victory for FF, according to the forecast of the box office agency and FF's own distribution department, the North American box office of the film is expected to reach 60 million-80 million, coupled with the optimistic overseas market, the global box office is just around the corner to enter the 100 million yuan club.
With such success, there is no reason why this song and dance series should not be done, and recently Flame Movies has announced that "Step-Up 3" will be released in October 2007. But to the dismay of Step-Up fans, Anne Fletcher will step back as a planning producer, and the director's microphone will be passed on to the 26-year-old Chinese director Jon M. Zhu, who is a member of the USC faction and has won dance and directing awards during his college studies, and all FF members are confident that this will be his big-screen debut.
And Anne Fletcher, who was brought out by Wang Yang, has already grown into a commercial director who is popular with film companies after "Sweetheart" and "Step-Up" 1&2, and is also one of the directors with the best relationship with FF. Now that Fletcher is free, companies large and small including 20th Century Fox, Walt Disney, Sony/Columbia and others are interested in inviting her to discuss projects, but it seems that her sweet collaboration with Flame will continue, and it has been revealed that the two parties are interested in making a small and medium-budget comedy romance movie, and are still looking for suitable projects, but it is certain that it is not "The Story of Hachiko the Loyal Dog" and "Marley and Me".
——!As the sun sets and seagulls soar in the sunset, the new weekend of October is approaching, and on a beach near the Golden Gate Bridge in San Francisco, the waves are crashing against the fine sand, and the crew of "500 Days with Shamo" is filming the last set of shots before the finale.
The camera lens is aimed at the Golden Gate Bridge in the distance, the water and sky are red and blue under the sunset, very spectacular and beautiful, with the director's shout coming out of the loudspeaker, Natalie and Joseph in the performance area in front of the camera looked over, Harry George, the lighting team, the recording team and other staff, Jessica sitting in the director's chair on the sidelines, Nancy holding a bunch of papers, paper and pens and everyone else looked at Wang Yang, only to see him smile and nodded, raised his left hand and shouted: "GOOD-TAKE!"
"YEAH ——!" everyone immediately cheered happily, although the atmosphere on the set was relaxed and happy every day, the mood after this completion of the game was still very exciting, and after a month and a half, "500 Days with Shamo" was completed! Under the director's leadership, everyone has experienced the romance of San Francisco during these days, and now they are infected by the sunset scenery, and everyone who relaxes has different feelings, Harry is looking forward to saying goodbye to being single, Joshua misses Alexis very much, and really wants to throw himself into her arms all at once...... "Fatty, GOOD-JOD! Wang Yang hugged Harry George next to him, and then hugged Nancy, and finished again! He looked around at the people around him, as always, he made a closing speech, and said with a smile: "Thank you for your efforts in the past month or so, very happy! Here are people and I are working together for the first time, and Yang's 50 days are good! There are also many old friends, maybe to tell stories, and Yang has been 5,000 days, longer than my marriage age, I am almost fed up, you must be uncomfortable." ”
Everyone laughed a few times, Jessica, who got up and walked up, applauded softly, her smile was brighter than anyone else's, Natalie muttered secretly, "It's going to talk nonsense all day long!", Joshua, who is older than the crew of "Youth Musical", smiled, although it is not 5000 days, it is half, and it feels good!
"So we decided to have a baby, and as long as we spend all our time with the baby, we don't have time to fight. Listening to what Wang Yangchao said to Jessica, everyone chuckled again, and he continued to laugh: "And movies are like our babies, everyone wants their babies to be healthy and beautiful! A year ago, I remember telling the crew of "Firefly" that there will be great and great movies to watch next summer! Its credits will have our names written on it, and then we did it, and the movie is now 1.7 billion at the box office. ”
"Whew!" Immediately burst into applause and cheers on the beach, as well as whistles that spread far away, Wang Yang shouted loudly: "At the end of the year, this movie will kill "Firefly" and make it lose its Oscars! This is what we are going to do. ”
"Hahaha!" the crowd laughed, and Natalie shouted in agreement, "Apparently you can kill it at the Best Director Award!" Everyone laughed even louder, and Jessica, who was laughing, had to hold her stomach. Wang Yang glared at everyone, spread out his palms and said: "Don't laugh! I'm serious, don't think I'm joking, we must have this belief in order for us to do it! We have "Firefly" and "Star Wars", how can we not do it?"
Listening to everyone's laughter and applause, Wang Yang couldn't help laughing: "Ha! I just want to say that you have all done a good job, and everyone has contributed their best, which is a cool and wonderful thing! This movie must also be full of energy, no worse than those classic movies and everything is good." He paused, shrugged his shoulders and said, "Of course, it seems a bit immodest to use yourself as an object of comparison. Everyone immediately laughed again, Wang Yang smiled: "Anyway, this Christmas, everyone can see Tom's unlucky appearance after falling out of love, I won't tell you, I have tried like that before, OK, call it a day!"
"Huhu ——!" over there, Wang Yang turned off the speaker microphone and handed it to Nancy, and after another happy applause from the crew, they began to laugh and talk about cleaning up the set.
Wang Yang then praised his colleagues and hugged Joseph who was walking towards him: "Man, very good! But seriously, you should fall in love a few times, and it will be better to act in a romance movie in the future." Joseph smiled happily: "I'll do my best!" Wang Yang continued to walk towards Natalie, opened his hands and hugged her, and said with a smile: "Hey, it's the third time!" At this time, Natalie's expression was calm, and she nodded: "Well, yes, it's really fast, it's really an unforgettable job." Wang Yang also nodded: "Me too." Natalie looked him in the eye and suddenly asked with interest, "Is there a joke?"
"Oh, OK!" Wang Yang straightened his brows, and every time he laughed at the desert island joke after the finale, he grinned: "This is our tradition......, isn't it?" This time it's a quick operation, so the joke should be faster. Natalie doesn't care: "Just be funny." Wang Yang thought for a while, and then he spoke: "A passenger ship passed by a desert island, and from a distance I saw a man on the island wearing animal skins and a beard, and he was screaming and waving his hand! The tourist asked the captain, 'Who is that?' The captain was impatient: 'Who knows!' Every year our ship passes here, he goes crazy!' The tourist said, 'It's all right.'"
"Haha!" Natalie laughed at the poke, she reached out and patted him on the shoulder, and smiled, "SO BE IT, OLD MAN, HAVE A GOOD WEEKEND." She made a gesture to signal him to turn around, and Wang Yang turned to look, only to see Jessica coming with a smile.
Watching him walk towards Jessica, put his arm around her shoulders affectionately, and the two laughed at each other, Natalie pouted, shook her head and shrugged her shoulders and smiled, walked a few steps and looked back a few times, and continued to walk to the beach outside the set, and came to autumn.
Under the sunset, seagulls are flying freely.
