Chapter 281, wonderful movie, real science fiction

Many viewers who like to watch entertainment channels know that "Into Hollywood" is a high-quality program. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 infoOnly those really good, even classic movies, will appear on this show, and then the host will analyze them in detail with a light and humorous conversation. Basically, the worst of these films is also an Oscar nomination, and of course, the European Palm Awards' wonderful films are also involved.

Although the plots in these films are already familiar to many viewers, it is precisely because of this that when the programs of the movies are analyzed together and then brought to the screen, they will inherently attract countless audiences. So, since "Into Hollywood" first aired in March '84, it has become one of ABC's most popular entertainment programs.

Therefore, when the show suddenly aired a special show of "Alien II", at least 10 million people across the United States watched it. So the very next day, the box office of the film ushered in a new peak without surprise!

Of the at least 10 million viewers, about one-third is to experience this wonderful movie again, and the remaining 6 million or so naturally have only one purpose - hurry up and watch it!

The fact that a movie that is currently in theaters can actually enter "Into Hollywood", which is famous for its analysis of traditional classic films, is enough to make many people interested in it. And when the show promoted the movie a second time and spoiled it fiercely, a new round of box office surges was inevitable.

In fact, this phenomenon is mainly concentrated among the most ordinary people, for those who often pay attention to the entertainment industry, often intersect with the entertainment industry, and even are members of the entertainment industry themselves, in fact, they have already made certain psychological preparations for this.

After all, when Cameron started shooting in the UK, the campaign had already begun, and that was in September last year.

Cameron's name can be said to be a bright new star in the past two years, with his self-written and directed "Terminator", he can be regarded as a good lesson for Hollywood science fiction directors and screenwriters - don't always focus on those ethereal space exploration,

Look, Lao Tzu is just an old stalk of a future warrior returning to the modern era, and he can make so much money!

Of course, money belongs to money, that is what the producer cares about, and for many film critics and ordinary people, it is a gluttonous feast. Therefore, when the news was published that he was responsible for directing DreamWorks' new film, "Alien II" written by Alice Wang, many people had already blown up their nests.

"This is a powerful alliance between newcomers and kings, directed by Cameron, who has produced connotations such as "The Terminator", written by Alice, who has produced huge profits such as "Ghost Shadows", plus the sequel positioning of "Alien", a new classic is about to be born!" - The New York Times

Obviously, each speaker has their own opinion on who exactly is the focus of the topic.

After writing and directing the unprecedented profiteering movie "Ghost Shadow", the legendary girl Alice began to make new myths. The huge investment of 50 million US dollars is in stark contrast to the cost of 30,000 or 20,000 yuan for the debut film, the rental of the National Physical Laboratory supercomputer for special effects production, which is once again in contrast to the style of the previous 'live video', and the dispatch of the industry's rising star Cameron's 'luxury lineup' and the previous film's hiring of university film clubs. This makes us wonder how amazing the new work will be after all these plus points!" - Los Angeles Times

In addition to the most representative mainstream print media on the east and west coasts, the entertainment sections of major TV networks and various newspapers and magazines across the country have not been idle, reporting and evaluating the relevant information of "Alien II". After all, not to mention Alice's identity, she has long been out of the Hollywood circle, and the profiteering debut "Ghost Shadow" that she has already filmed is enough to become the biggest selling point in terms of the director's identity.

In fact, when some people read the relevant reports, they were slightly aware of a tangled mentality of major media.

They unanimously agreed on the name of Alice: Alice.

Instead of referring to Cameron, Spielberg, Gates, Buffett by last name, as in the case of Cameron, Spielberg, Gates, Warren Buffett.

No one thinks that this is just because the surname "Wang" is too popular. Although this surname, whether in Chinese or in the writing of English "wong", seems very popular and cannot highlight the existence of characters, it will certainly not be the main reason.

Is it because she is Chinese?

It's an easy fact to spot, and across the United States, Anglo-Saxon whites, African-Americans, Indians, Germans, Irish, Mexicans, Italians, Japanese, Chinese-Americans, politicians, lawyers, doctors, teachers, businessmen, celebrities, scientists, ...... Regardless of race, occupation, as long as you are an American, you have some sense of knowing.

The girl herself hardly appears on TV, and in the past three or two years, she has only participated in one talk show and only one interview with Time magazine, and is obviously a very low-key person. As a result, the public has no way of knowing from any source what she thinks about the situation, and what kind of discussion those people have experienced when the editors of the media have chosen such a title.

Everything is unknowable, and all people can see and hear in the newspapers and television is one affectionate and cute name after another: Alice.

Of course, no one is stupid enough to publish articles or opinions in certain media outlets that expose the kind of truth that is implicit in the minds of almost all Americans. Maybe the major media just think that for a fifteen-year-old girl, it is more affectionate to call Alice?

Well, that's fine.

Interestingly, since the promotion before the release of the movie, this little celebrity, who has spanned several industries, has not appeared in public in a very low-key manner. And now, when the movie has begun to be released, she is still like an invisible person, handing over all the work, including the premiere and other activities, to the rest of the crew.

This is enough to be criticized by many people in the industry, after all, Alice, who is also the screenwriter, investor, producer shareholder, and even the head of the special effects department of the crew, can be said to be the most important person in the entire premiere. Even the leading actors and Cameron may not be able to attract more media attention than her.

Such a character did not attend the premiere, or even appear in any promotional event, at best, he was too arrogant, and at worst, he just didn't care about the audience. Normally, if another person in the same capacity dares to do this, some people will scold him in the newspaper.

But this time, countless people rummaged through the entertainment sections of major newspapers, but they couldn't see the relevant negative responsibilities at all.

Is it a girl, a Microsoft shareholder, a Cisco boss and a series of identities at work?

.

Because, of course, there's really no room for that scum on the page.

Because, all the pages are full of information after the release of "Alien II".

Just on the day of the premiere, with the advantage of simultaneous premieres in the United Kingdom and Japan, and the effect of being broadcast together with hundreds of screens across the United States, "Alien II" won a full 13 million US dollars at the box office!

On the day of release, the cost returned to a quarter!

From the day of the release, it can be seen that there are long queues at the doors of major theaters in the United States, and as the movie continues to be released, this wave still shows no signs of subsiding, but as more people spread the word of mouth, more and more new audiences continue to join it, and there is no shortage of old audiences who watch it repeatedly.

It just so happens that this is still the winter vacation season, and the release date is not very far from Valentine's Day on February 14, so the young woman doesn't like the setting of sci-fi thrillers too much. Whether it's to satisfy your boyfriend's hobby, or to satisfy your girlfriend's hobby of being hugged after being frightened, or some other hobby, the closer the time is to Valentine's Day, the easier it is to find a couple in the moviegoers.

So the question is, why is this movie so good?

"I never imagined that interstellar warfare would be so real!"

When ABC TV interviewed passers-by on the street, this young man who was standing at the door of Disneyland in Los Angeles said excitedly: "It's completely different styles from "Star Wars"! Star Wars is very exciting, but after all, it is too far away from us, but this movie ...... Oh my God, it's so real!"

Excellent computer special effects are indeed a great weapon to attract audiences to watch repeatedly, especially for science fiction films, unless the sword is off the edge, otherwise the special effects are almost equal to life. However, when many TV stations led by ABC interviewed passers-by randomly, they were surprised to find that most of them were most interested in the "realism" of the battle.

"The movie "Alien II" shows us the most realistic army battle scenes since the birth of Hollywood space science fiction movies. Unlike the dazzling laser dance of Star Wars, the Marines of Alien II use real weapons. Gaussian power guns and gunpowder weapons are not too far away, flamethrowers are a technology that we can do now, and the seemingly crudely made power armor is also in the realm of what the audience can understand. In short, the unattainable heights of Star Wars and Star Trek, if the Pentagon and the major arms dealers are willing, maybe by the time the next century comes, the American Marines in "Alien II" will really appear in front of us!" - Steven Spielberg.

"It's a long string of words, and he really guessed it. ”

In the bedroom after dinner, Alice flipped through today's newspaper and sighed.

Just now, a phone call that crossed the east and west coasts had just been made by her. (To be continued.) )
