Chapter 518 The surprise brought by "Terminator 2".

July 12 is a day that is remembered by all Shijie movie fans, on this day, their long-awaited movie "Terminator 2: Judgment Day" was officially released in the United States and Hong Kong. And at lightning speed, it quickly topped the weekly box office charts of the two places. In the first week in the United States, "Terminator 2" swept nearly $40 million at the box office, becoming a well-deserved box office champion, and in the second week, the total box office of "Terminator 2" has exceeded $100 million.

And after the release of "Terminator 2", the film critics can be described as rave reviews.

'The unknown of the future unfolds before us. For the first time, we face the future with hope. Because if a machine, a terminator, can learn the value of human nature, maybe we can too' - Sarah Connor.

"If you only plan to watch one American action movie in your life, there is no doubt that you should choose this "Terminator 2". It's a really perfect movie. ”

"The Terminator series really explores the relationship between humans and machines, and the huge development of computers in human society has also brought great panic and disaster, which is not explained much in the first "Terminator", it is just a story background. But "Terminator 2" is a picture of the apocalyptic battlefield from the beginning, and Zuihou freezes the eyes of John Connor (please note that his expression is not much different from that of the Terminator), which seems to be a very subtle message, robots are not much different from humans, and the future Shijie disaster was originally caused by people. ”

"In my heart, the plot of this movie is not very complicated and tortuous, and even a few sentences can be roughly said, the theme of this robot exterminating humans is not too new, but it is this simple plot, but it presents us with extremely shocking audio-visual enjoyment, the director and screenwriter of this film is Hollywood genius James Cameron, his father is an electrical engineer and his mother is a painter, which seems to have created his born artistic genius and leadership skills. ”

On the entertainment section of the media, comments like this are overwhelming.........

And it was also rated as the most Haode movie sequel in the history of Hollywood films, ending the history of Hollywood movie sequels generally inferior to the first episode.

"We all know that Hollywood is a paradise for sequels. For producers, the success of the previous episode is enough to guarantee the success of the next episode, and sometimes there will even be film companies that often make two movies in one go and launch them intensively a year apart, which can not only save a lot of filming costs, manpower and material resources, but also catch up with the trend, which is naturally to drain all the money in the audience's pocket. But although the sequel is easy to shoot and sell, there is also a problem, that is, most of the audience, directors, and actors know that the sequel maybe, and it is very likely to be a bad movie, but I have to admit that Cameron's "Terminator 2" has made a comeback after many years and has completely surpassed his previous work. Broken this Hollywood tradition that the sequel is not as good as the first episode," Schwartz, director of marketing at New Front Cinema Lines in the United States, said bluntly.

"In the sense of science fiction, the connection between machines, computers, networks and intelligence, etc., the crisis of the future society, the "Terminator" series has risen from the entertainment level of the first episode to the height of reflection in the second episode, from the transformation of robots to the aggressiveness and ignorance of human beings themselves, although the film is still entertaining most of the time, the theme is much deeper than the first episode. Thomas, a well-known American film critic, spoke eloquently in interviews with television media.

"James's jishu has matured. Take that road chase scene as an example: John's light motorcycle, the T-1000's big truck, and the T-800's motorcycle, the three shots appear in a staggered manner, the pace is getting faster and faster, Arnold shoots with scattered bullets on the motorcycle, and Zuihou returns to look at the truck that crashed and caught fire, all of which are amazing. And the metal deformation lens of the liquefied robot T-1000 is even more breathtaking. I believe that these will become classic shots recognized by Shijie filmmakers, and countless objects that have been imitated. American Hollywood director Robert was also emotional.

"I have to say that director Cameron has been brilliant in his portrayal of the characters in this film. For example, Sarah, who in the previous film, was just a beautiful vase that could scream, and here she has become a staunch warrior to protect her son and protect the future of mankind. Sarah is a conflicting thinker about the fate of mankind: she fears the catastrophe ahead, so she is the narrator of the narrator, and she is the one who dreams of Judgment Day. In the film, there is a subtle shot that reveals the future of humanity through Sarah's eyes - a dark highway where she is in the car after she is rescued from the asylum by Connor and T-800, and she says to the T-800 who is driving, 'Can you see the road?' T-800 replies, 'I can see it clearly.' In the course of this question, Sarah's fear of the fate of humanity in the future has been revealed. And Connor, the T-800 went from being a cold protector to a future warrior with feelings to help humanity, all as a result of getting along with Connor. A terminator who recognizes the fate and emotions of human beings, and I believe this will be a theme that many science fiction genres will pay attention to in the future. In the beginning of the movie, Connor says, 'We have feelings, we can feel hurt and fear, and you have to understand that, it's important.'" Later, T-800 sees Sarah for loving Connor and blames him for going to a mental hospital to save her, Connor is sad and crying, and T-800 asks him what is wrong. It wasn't until the T-1000 was ready to get out of the furnace after defeating the T-800 that the T-800 realized: I understand that you will cry, but I can't. Seeing this, I have to admit that this is an epoch-making portrayal of human nature. "Ms. Gower, the president of Emerald Bird Films, makes no secret of her appreciation for her ex-husband's cinematic talent.

Of course, in addition to the fire of the movie itself, these actors in the movie have also been greatly praised for this. The brilliance of the movie, in addition to Sarah and Connor mentioned by Gower, is naturally inseparable from Schwarzenegger and Patrick's wonderful interpretation of the characters in it.

Schwarzenegger's perfect physique and tough appearance can be said to be the best choice for the T-800. But his performance in the movie is not just a big guy who only knows how to show off his muscles, on the contrary, compared with the previous episode, Schwarzenegger's performance has improved significantly, his performance is accurate and exciting, and he portrays a robot who does not understand human feelings but gradually understands human nature. Especially his Zuihou choice, almost all the audience fell in love with this "Terminator".

And the T-1000 liquid metal man played by Patrick has definitely given everyone who has watched "Terminator 2" This robot is very different from the T-800, he doesn't talk much, but the expressive body language is daunting, especially his eyes, the ruthlessness and ferocity of his heart are vividly expressed; 。

Of course, in addition to Sarah and Connor, many of the characters in it left a deep impression on the audience. Among them are Sandra Bullock and Mitsuri Uda, who is of mixed Japanese and American descent.

But compared to them, the most striking and the most puzzling for Americans is the name that appears on the screen in the two positions of screenwriter and director, after Cameron - "Fang" written in Chinese Kaishu

Needless to say, the importance of a film director is, and the screenwriter, in the Hollywood film industry, is definitely an important position that cannot be ignored. Of course, a haode actor can save a garbage movie, but with a good screenwriter, then even a fledgling novice may be star-studded.

What shocked Americans was that they had always thought that the screenwriter of "Terminator 2" was Cameron and the director was Cameron, but no one thought that Zuihou suddenly appeared and no one knew who this party was

Well, even if he is an unknown person, but to be able to become the screenwriter and director of "Terminator 2", although it is obvious that Cameron plays a greater role in this, otherwise this party will not be ranked after his name, but the hot box office of "Terminator 2" is enough to make him the new favorite of Hollywood studio bosses, such a newcomer who can write, direct, and be recognized by Cameron, for Hollywood film companies, it is a baby.

But no one knows who this "party" is, facing the confusion of the media and film companies, Emerald Bird Film Company is silent about this, and the crew of "Terminator 2" is also silent about this - of course they won't say it, Cameron is about to start shooting the next movie, which is not a secret in the company and crew, and the box office popularity of "Terminator 2" and a group of stars have made everyone further realize Cameron's talent and his position in Hollywood in the future. At this time, when he had already issued a gag order, he broke the news to the media, which was undoubtedly the possibility of breaking off his cooperation with Cameron again. No one would be so stupid to ruin their future in Hollywood for a little windfall.

It's just that Fang Mingyuan saw this subtitle at the premiere of "Terminator 2" in Hong Kong, but he couldn't help but smile bitterly in his heart, this Cameron didn't show any tone before, and he didn't even leak the slightest bit on the sample film he showed himself, and when he arrived in Zuihou, he gave himself a "surprise", which is really a surprise
