"Theolod Lechter is crowned emperor for the second time, and Halle Berry takes the second place!"

The day after the Oscars, the entertainment section of the "Los Angeles Times" published this news, with a picture of Theolod and Halle Berry holding the golden man. In addition, major entertainment newspapers and news sites such as Yahoo on the Internet have also reported on this matter - a 24-year-old actor who has entered the palace for the second time and won a second award, and the first black actress in Oscar history, these news can stir up the heat for at least a month.

That's twenty-four years old, not forty-two! Although Theolod has broken the record of the youngest actor in the history of the Oscars, and has maintained the record at a height that no one can break for decades, and he is destined to win a second or more little gold man in his life, in the eyes of everyone, this little gold man will have to wait until he is at least thirty years old, but he won the little gold man again in the second year of winning the actor crown!

and the first black actress in history, you must know that since the establishment of the Oscars, there have been few black actors who have been shortlisted for these important awards, let alone won the Oscars directly. Denzel Washington lost to Theorod this time, but there was already a black actor before him, and what about the actress? This is the first time!

In the eyes of some people, such as Nicole Kidman's fans, they think that those old men will give the actress to a black man for the sake of public anger after handing over the golden man to a white man, otherwise, this Oscar-winning actress position must be Nicole Kidman, who won the Golden Globe Award.

In any case, Theorod, who won both the Golden Globe and the Oscar this season, is undoubtedly the biggest winner, which can be regarded as making his fans raise their eyebrows at the black and stupid singing media of Theorod. When they questioned Theolod because of factors such as age, taste, experience, etc., their idol smashed a little golden figure without saying a word to establish their status, Now, who dares to hack their idol?

Their idol won numerous awards before the age of twenty-five, including two Oscars, what was your idol doing at that time? I'm afraid you were running errands and playing soy sauce on the set!

It's just that what is Theolod's next movie? According to his previous urine nature, he definitely ran away after teasing the academics, and the good baby who was still academic in the last second turned his head and became a rebellious teenager who made cult movies in the next second. However, the producers who saw Theorod's tremendous strength in feature film biopics couldn't wait to shove a dozen award-winning scripts into his arms, right?

In fact, Marshall has a lot of films of the same genre as "American Narcos", several of which have the ability to win awards. And Theolod's reaction was as "dismissive" as Marshall and most die-hard fans imagined -

"Mystic River? boring...... Although I haven't seen Tony for a long time, but forget it, I don't like the subject matter, you can recommend Jude to try it...... "Chicago" is even more counted, at least I won't be acting in musical and dance films in the near future...... Marshall, why don't you recommend some funny movies, I'm only twenty-four instead of forty-two, maybe I can go for a slash-and-kill action movie. ”

Although Theorod's last sentence was to be a joke and forget it, Marshall still rolled his eyes - if the action movie could really attract him, maybe Theorod would pounce on him without looking back, he didn't believe he was joking, maybe this kid was hot-headed, and he could even take a zombie movie.

At that time, I am afraid that I will be angry with a bunch of academics again.

So Marshall said: "Action movies, okay, don't you feel interested in the 007 series? Anyway, Pierce Brosnan will quit after acting in "Die Another Day", which will be released at the end of this year, and MGM is now secretly looking for a new James Bond, if you are interested, I will help you match, anyway, the British accent is not a problem for you. ”

Theorod nodded seriously: "Yes, as long as MGM doesn't care about me quitting after playing a British agent, I don't care." ”

"You think so beautifully, unless you play too badly, the 007 series says that you have to sign a minimum of two films, will you mess up? No, then MGM will want to sign five or six with you. ”

Theolod shrugged his shoulders and expressed regret, but he didn't have the idea of necessarily starring in an action movie, just talking and playing a few words with Marshall. Marshall also saw it, so he didn't take it seriously, but according to Theolod's current posture of not glancing at the scripts that came up, he would have to wait at least half a year to act.

I didn't wait for the script I was interested in, but waited for the release of Ang Lee's "Hulk" in the summer of July. With nothing to do, Theolod and Natel bought two premiere tickets and went to the cinema to see what this superhero movie, which is not suitable for Ang Lee's directorial style, would be made by Ang Lee.

The American people have always had an extraordinary passion for superheroes, as evidenced by the fact that movie theaters are almost full. Fortunately, Theolod was wearing a hat, and no one could see anyone clearly after the lights went out, and everyone's attention was on the screen, and no one noticed him.

However, contrary to the enthusiasm of fans, the first half of the movie is too flat and makes people sleepy. In Theolod's afterglow, Natel had yawned countless times, not to mention the die-hard fans of the other comics, and several of him were already showing impatience on the left and right.

In fact, this "Hulk" is indeed different from all previous superhero movies, Ang Lee tried to shoot an action movie in the style of a humanistic film, and he fixed the conflict in the heart of Bruce Banner rather than the common sense confrontation between good and evil. He made his style and the depth of the Hulk, but what the audience wanted to see was not this kind of art film about the awakening of self-awareness and consciousness, and they instinctively rejected this alternative style of superhero film under this psychological gap.

It's really exciting after all the foreshadowing in the second half of the film has exploded, but the audience can't bear it anymore, after all, not everyone will go to see a movie like an actor or a professional film critic, and the first impression given to them at the beginning of the movie determines their overall perception of the movie. Most viewers don't want to think about the so-called self-worth, they want to watch a hearty popcorn blockbuster in the summer, but they didn't expect "Hulk" to be so depressing and literary that they won't buy it even if there are a lot of ingenious comic-style storyboards.

Besides, this "Hulk" almost changed the original comic book beyond recognition, which also offended thousands of comic fans!

Even most film critics don't buy Ang Lee's account. If it were other ordinary types of films, Ang Lee might still give some praise for making it like this, but the forty-year-old "Hulk" is not an ordinary movie, in other words, its overall style has long been stereotyped.

So, not surprisingly, this $137 million superhero movie, which should have been a big hit under common sense, only received $62.12 million in its first week of release, not to mention catching up with the $114 million box office of "Spider-Man" released in May, and it almost failed to win the first week box office.

The second week was even more bleak, with a score and a 49% freshness rating on Rotten Tomatoes that directly reduced the box office to $18.84 million, and among many reviews, Roger Ebert's sentence hit the nail on the head - "In essence, Ang Lee is filming an ordinary person, not a superhero."

If this trend continues, thank God it will be able to recover the cost, it seems that Universal Pictures has planted a big heel this time and fallen full of gold stars, and even Ang Lee has changed from the previous "21st world's most potential Chinese director" to a "bad movie expert" that any production company avoids.

Theolod knew that Ang Lee had paid a lot for this movie, and he couldn't help but sigh when he saw this result. He called to comfort him, but Ang Lee looked at it very openly:

You made the right decision, Theo. But I had to be a martyr, and it was the hardest I ever filmed, and I even went into battle myself for motion capture, because I didn't believe that a superhero movie could never change. "The Incredible Hulk" can be regarded as a precedent for future superhero movies, these heroes can discuss too many places, maybe people can't accept it now, it doesn't mean that it will be the same in the future. ’

Theolod saw that Li An was not depressed, so he was relieved: "Then do you have any plans for the future?"

'Not yet. Li Ang on the other end of the phone smiled, he also knew that Theorod was now in a state of "leisure at home", and he also remembered that Theorod had an agreement with him to cooperate, but now it seems that no one wants to ask him to make a movie, "You know, "Hulk" has taken me too much energy, I'm a little tired, maybe take a break for a while." ’

"Okay, I'll be waiting for your call at any time. Theolod ended the call with a joke.

He thought he would have to wait at least a year for the effects of "The Incredible Hulk" to wear off completely before Ang Lee could return to work. But he didn't expect that in less than half a year, he learned from Marshall that Ang Lee had a new film recently and was asking him about his intentions.

It's only November, and it's only four months since the release of "The Incredible Hulk" in the United States, and some countries, such as Italy, have just released "The Incredible Hulk" for less than two weeks at the moment.

In fact, Ang Lee himself was also surprised, when James Shams, a producer and old friend who had worked with him for many years, approached him, he thought that the other party was joking with him or using it to comfort him. As a result, he didn't expect Shams to be playing for real, and recently he also pulled an investment company, Focus Pictures, and was in a tug-of-war with the other party - mainly because Ang Lee is a hot potato recently, and the other party said that if the director uses Ang Lee, he will resolutely not pay.

When Ang Lee learned what this new work was, he pondered for a long time before he said to Shams: "Ask Focus Pictures, if I can find Theolod Lecht, will they change their minds?"

Then, there was the later scene.

Theolod agreed without hesitation: "Okay, make an appointment at a time and place, and I'll talk to him directly." ”

Marshall advised, "Are you sure? No one is optimistic about Ang Lee right now, and you don't even know what that new film is! You're going to be dragged into the water!"

"But I'm optimistic about him, my agent, don't you know what the new film is when you meet? Besides, I took on a job this year - to voice Leon Scott Kennedy in the English version of the game "Resident Evil 4", if there is no big news, those tabloid reporters must not die of loneliness?"

“…… You're not big news, you're breaking news......" Marshall muttered, one hand on his forehead, "Okay, then you can go with Heath Ledger." ”

"Why?"

“…… Well, do you know, Brokeback Mountain?" 166 Reading Network
