789 Annihilation

After experiencing the ups and downs of "I Am a Legend" and "007", and experiencing the collective confusion of "Mad Max 4: Fury Road", in this Hollywood offensive and defensive battle, Lance has never fallen behind, and even faintly controlled the initiative. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 But now Warner Bros. and Sony Pictures have teamed up to teach Lance a good lesson: in the game world of Hollywood, Lance is still too young, and he has a lot more to learn.

The 67th Golden Globe Awards, which ended on January 16 at the Hilton Hotel in Hollywood, are the best proof of this.

In the nomination stage, the beautiful "fruit hard candy" finally returned empty-handed again, and Lance, who has been calling the world for the past three years, still has no money at the Golden Globe Awards, which is really a strange and shocking situation.

Not long ago, the Golden Globe Awards took the lead in announcing the list of nominees, and "Fruit Hard Candy", as a dark horse, was full of color and received a full six nominations, second only to "Brokeback Mountain", which won seven nominations, becoming the biggest surprise in the nomination stage, which attracted everyone's exclamations.

After the start of the awards season, "Fruit Hard Candy" did not carry out any supporting publicity, and seemed to have made up its mind to announce the abandonment of this year's awards season, but the topic of this work has not weakened at all, not only the East Coast, West Coast industry insiders are discussing, many senior fans, professional film critics have also sniffed out the signs, as the most high-profile new generation of directors at present, Lance once again dedicated a stunning work, but completely gave up the academy public relations, forced to flee Africa, which is really chilling.

It is rumored that Lance knew for a long time that "Fruit Hard Candy" was destined to miss the award, so he completely let go of his hands and feet during the filming stage, and concentrated on putting his bold and bold ideas into practice, and finally created this experimental work that amazed countless people. After the awards season began, George Clooney moved around and started public relations, but Lance disappeared completely, and even Chaos Pictures died down, so such a stark contrast does not need to be explained at all.

So, everyone's eyes are on "Fruit Hard Candy", looking forward to how this work will perform during the awards season.

At the major film critics associations that were the first to announce the nominations, the controversy has begun to warm up one after another, and the Boston Film Critics Association, the New York Film Critics Association, the Chicago Film Critics Association and other important towns have given important nominations for "Fruit Hard Candy", which once again proves that film critics support and appreciate this work; But on top of the "Oscar vane triumvirate", the National Board of Review Awards and the North American Broadcast Film Critics Association Awards both ignored the "fruit hard candy", which seemed to verify the previous conjecture from the side again, coupled with the neglect of the San Francisco Film Critics Association and the Los Angeles Film Critics Association, the atmosphere of the entire awards season began to develop in a strange direction.

When the Golden Globe Awards announced the list of nominees, it was definitely a lot of attention - compared to those film critics associations, even if it is a major town like New York and San Francisco, but no matter how many nominations there are, it can't compare to the weight of the "Weather Vane Trium", and now two of the Big Three have rejected the "fruit hard candy", and everyone can't help but start to speculate, so what about the Golden Globe Awards? What choice will the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, which has been lukewarm to Lance for the past two years, make?

In the end, "Hard Candy" received six nominations, including Best Picture in a Drama, Best Director, Best Actress in a Drama, Best Supporting Actor, Best Screenplay, and Best Film Score.

Needless to say, this is a huge breakthrough!

As we all know, the "City of God" and "Murder by Knife", which have received countless praises in the past two years, have both suffered setbacks at the Golden Globe Awards, and the Hollywood Foreign Press Association seems to have no interest in Lance, a new director, which is really rare for the Golden Globe Awards, which has always been determined to "entertainment first", after all, the biggest purpose of the Golden Globes is to have fun with the family, even if the awards are given to the principle of sharing the cake and everyone is happy, but they have closed the door to Lance for two consecutive years, ignoring the director who has been the most popular topic in the world in the past two years, which makes people shout "I can't understand".

Now, the Golden Globes have finally confronted Lance's talent and ability, and a "hard candy" has six nominations, including an unpopular nomination for Best Soundtrack, as if they are trying to mend the broken partnership between the two parties.

Not only that, but even "Squid and Whale", which Chaos Pictures is responsible for distributing, also received three nominations at the Golden Globe Awards for Best Picture of a Musical Comedy, Best Actor in a Musical Comedy, and Best Actress in a Musical Comedy. In addition to Focus Pictures, which relied on "The Immortal Gardener," "Pride and Prejudice," and "Brokeback Mountain," Chaos Pictures was undoubtedly the biggest winner this year at the corporate level — especially considering that these were the only two Chaos Pictures releases last year, an achievement that is all the more terrifying.

It is worth mentioning that "Good Night, Good Luck" completely disappeared from the list of nominations, continuing the trend of the entire awards season, not just zero nominations, and even the sound of mentioning this work did not move.

After the Golden Globe nominees were announced, people couldn't help but get excited. First the "Good Night, Good Luck" plagiarism once again proved Lance's talent, and then the emergence of "Fruit Hard Candy" won numerous accolades, after two years of "City of God", "Murder by the Knife" and this year's rave reviews of "Sin City" have amassed enough character, almost everyone thinks that this year is the year for Lance, he will not only achieve a breakthrough at the Golden Globes, but also a strong competitor to be reckoned with even at the Oscars.

However, after the Golden Globe winners were announced, cold water was poured on them, and the crisp sound of everyone's jaws could be heard uniformly.

The whole army was wiped out, "Fruit Hard Candy" returned empty-handed, to be precise, Chaos Pictures was completely wiped out, and the two works of "Fruit Hard Candy" and "Squid and Whale" both failed in Wheat City, and they didn't really win a single award.

Although Lance was absent from the Golden Globe Awards ceremony for the third year in a row, this time it was different, Lance went to Africa early because of the filming of "Mad Max 4", not to mention the Golden Globes, it seems that even the attendance of the Oscars must be marked with a question mark; What's more, this year's situation is different from the past, many people think that the Golden Globes should take the initiative to lower their profile and extend an olive branch to Reims, as long as Reims wins a Golden Globe trophy this year, next year's attendance will be logical. But, but the result was a big surprise!

In the two departments of Best Picture and Best Director in the drama category, "Fruit Hard Candy" both lost to "Brokeback Mountain", which was a bit surprising but not unpopular.

"Brokeback Mountain" was not favored at the beginning of the preparation, and after going around for three years but never being able to put into filming, it finally returned to the hands of director Lee/An after a big circle, and stumbled to start filming. In today's Hollywood, gay-themed works are still a sensitive topic, and almost no one is willing to mention it in public, even though Hollywood is the most gay industry in the world, everyone is still willing to hide their ears and refuse to admit this fact.

Not only Jake Gyllenhaal took over the film, but many people in the industry thought that he was self-destructing his future, which would be the stupidest decision of his career; Even when the film was released, Focus Pictures seemed to be lacking in confidence, and the unexpected Golden Lion, the highest award at the Venice Film Festival, did not make them act rashly, and the pace of small-scale screenings was cautious, lest it arouse the disgust of the conservatives of the academy, and even if the film was expanded for seven weeks, it was still only released in 600 theaters.

But to everyone's surprise, this gay-themed work, which is regarded as a flood beast by countless people, has been unanimously sought after by the audience and film critics. In such a small range of releases, when the awards season is far from reaching its high/climax, "Brokeback Mountain" has already earned $32 million at the North American box office, which is really a huge surprise for a work with an investment cost of only 14 million; More importantly, film critics praised it, and the 87-point media comprehensive review led this year's awards season, even when "Good Night, Good Luck" rose strongly, "Brokeback Mountain" also showed no inferior momentum, many industry insiders believe that the competition between these two works will become the main theme of this year's awards season, along with the silence of competitors, on top of the major awards that have ended so far, "Brokeback Mountain" deservedly became the top seed.

Therefore, above the Golden Globe Awards, "Brokeback Mountain" first led the list of nominees, and then successfully defeated "Fruit Hard Candy", becoming a historical monument of gay films, which is somewhat unexpected, but far from being unpopular, on the contrary, it makes people see the possibility of changing the dynasty in the art field this year. Now people's hot topic has gradually changed to: how likely is it that "Brokeback Mountain" will break the shackles and win the Oscar? Are the old Oscar-winning white pedants willing to break their prejudices and vote for this shocking but timeless work?

If the defeat of Best Picture and Best Director in the drama category is still within the acceptable range, but the other awards have all failed, this is really an incredible ending, not to mention that the Golden Globes have always liked to share the cake, and it is absolutely impossible to ignore works like "Fruit Hard Candy" that led in the nomination stage; The excellent quality of "Hard Fruit Candy" alone is definitely worthy of the award, but it is the truth.

The Golden Globe Awards came to an end, and the entire Chaos Pictures industry was wiped out, causing a lot of clamour. This lesson is really profound. (To be continued.) )
