Chapter 188: The Invincible Record

Chapter 188: The Invincible Record

Then the award for Best Score was split into two, one for Best Score for a Comedy/Musical, and the other for Best Score for a Drama, the former has nothing to do with "Million Dollar Baby", and the four nominated films are "Shakespeare", "Bugs", "Prince of Egypt" and Disney's "Huā Mulan". pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info the latter, "Million Dollar Baby" successfully won the nomination, as well as "Beautiful Life", "Shakespeare's Love History" and "Saving Private Ryan" and "Happy Valley", a total of five films.

There is also a final nomination for music, Best Sound Editing, which is only three films to receive this nomination: "Saving Private Ryan", "Zorro's Mask" and "Million Dollar Baby". In this way, "Million Dollar Baby" has already won four nominations for Best Music, Best Visual Effects, Best Soundtrack and Best Sound Editing.

"Four out of five, it's hot." Liang Xiǎo Long finally let out a smile, and his heart was somewhat relieved, the $160 million was not invested in vain, and the super high box office and so many nominations have proven everything.

"There are more than a dozen films in history that have received more than a dozen nominations, and there are not a few films that have won nothing in the end." Jessica continued to pour cold water, who let this family, she didn't get the xiǎo golden person?

"Sweetheart, jealousy makes people narrow-minded." Liang Xiǎo Long laughed, and in response to him was Jessica's Nine Yin White Bone Claw. However, Jessica also had to admit that the lack of acting skills was her fatal flaw, otherwise Liang Xiǎo Long would definitely be able to write a script that would make her hit the Oscars. However, Jessica has also put in a lot of effort this year, even when she is not taking on the role, she often hones her acting skills at home, and in her plan, she must become an Oscar-winning actress within five years.

Musically and visually, "Million Dollar Baby" was nominated for all of them, as well as for Best Sound Effects, along with "Saving Private Ryan," "Zorro's Mask," "Shakespeare's Love History" and "The Thin Red Line." However, the next few nominations have nothing to do with "Million Dollar Baby", such as the four nominations for Best Documentary, Best Live Action Short Film, Best Animated Short Film, and Best Documentary Short Film.

In addition, "Million Dollar Baby" also passed by the best makeup, after all, the story revolves around martial arts, and it is filmed in the most realistic shooting method, so makeup is not so important. It was a bit of a surprise to Liang Xiǎo Long that "Million Dollar Baby" was nominated for Best Costume Design, which Liang Xiǎo Long could not have imagined.

First of all, the story takes place in the future world, so a lot of fantasy elements and popular elements are incorporated into the design of the costumes, and it has also become the favorite clothing of the majority of teenagers this year. And such a costume design is usually not favored by Oscar, so he will feel unexpected. But it can't be denied that in the piece of clothing design, Nigra. Di and his team put in a lot of hard work and produced a lot of novel design concepts, and they deserved to be nominated for an Oscar.

"Two nominations, two nominations from our company." Peter and Richard high-fived themselves in celebration in the company's office. The special effects of the film were done by Weta Digital Studio, and Nigra is also the chief costume designer of Weta Digital Studio, so the best visual effects and the best costume design belong to Weta Digital Studio.

"This year, we must win these two xiǎo golden people, and our company should also have xiǎo golden people to suppress the formation." Richard slammed the table hard, Weta Digital Studio was established in 93, but the upfront funds were indeed too small, but after 96 years, with the vigorous injection of capital by Yanhuang Film Company, the company's strength is now not weaker than any special effects company in Hollywood. Take another bottle of Xiǎo Golden Man and tell everyone that Weta Digital Studios is a veritable top-notch special effects company.

"In that sense, we do have to thank the captain." Peter nodded, if it weren't for Liang Xiǎolong's attention to the development of special effects technology, the cooperation between Weta Digital Studio and Yanhuang Film Company would never be so pleasant, and the development of special effects technology would not be so high.

"What about you? When are you going to go out again? Richard asked again, since "Angel of the Last Days" in '93, Peter has devoted himself to the development of special effects technology and has never made a movie.

"It's time to ask the captain for a script." Long ago, Liang Xiǎo Long promised Peter that he would direct "The Lord of the Rings" to him, provided that Weta Digital Studios was able to meet the requirements in terms of special effects. Now that Weta Digital Studios has that capability, Peter is ready to make a comeback.

"The background of The Lord of the Rings is indeed huge, how much are you going to ask the captain?" Richard has also read the original Xiǎo said that the race is wrong, the background is very huge, and if you are reluctant to invest a lot, the shooting will definitely be a bad movie.

"It depends on how the script changes." Peter didn't care about this, and in his impression, Liang Xiǎo Long was definitely a master who was willing to spend money, and he didn't need to worry about lack of funds.

"There are five nominations for Best Art Direction, look at the big screen." As soon as the host's voice fell, five titles appeared on the big screen, namely "Saving Private Ryan", "Shakespeare in Love", "Elizabeth", "Dreams Come True" and "Million Dollar Baby". This is already the seventh nomination for "Million Dollar Baby", and its crazy posture has made all filmmakers shudder. They all remembered that "Titanic" and "My Captain, My Regiment" dominated the Oscars last year, will there be a bad situation of "Million Dollar Baby" dominating the Oscars this year?

The only thing that makes everyone happy is that the performance of "Saving the Soldier" and "Shakespeare's Love History" is also quite strong, and they are still qualified to compete with "Million Dollar Baby". is "Life is Beautiful", which has only been nominated for Best Foreign Language Film among the current nominations. But this is also normal, its jing color is no longer with the sound effect picture, but the plot.

However, I was also nominated for Best Editing, along with "Saving Private Ryan", "Shakespeare in Love", "Strategist" and "Million Dollar Baby".

But it didn't make it out for the next best cinematography, and the five nominated films were "Saving Private Ryan", "Shakespeare in Love", "Elizabeth", "The Thin Red Line" and "Million Dollar Baby".

"Honey, I've been nominated too." Danny suddenly cheered, first hugged Julia, and then hugged the two xiǎo guys in the family and kissed one of them. Julia also smiled and said, "If you have another xiǎo golden man, we will have two xiǎo golden people in our house, and these two treasures will have toys." ”

"Nominated" was also cheered by Bill, who worked with Danny on the cinematography aspect of Million Dollar Baby.

"In terms of script, will I have that xiǎo golden man again?" Liang Xiǎo Long suddenly asked, the next thing to be revealed is the nomination of the script, which is divided into two awards: Best Adapted Screenplay and Best Original Screenplay. Originally, "Million Dollar Baby" should have been changed from xiǎo's statement, but after his drastic adaptation, it has become an original.

"Well, that's a bit excessive, isn't it?" The three NV people looked at each other, Liang Xiǎo Long already had two Xiǎo Golden People with the best script, which was already very excessive, and it was simply intolerable to take another one.

"Well, there shouldn't be too much, right?" Liang Xiǎo Long asked weakly.

"If I were an Oscar judge, I wouldn't even give you a nomination." Sophie said decisively, but unfortunately it backfired, and "Million Dollar Baby" was really nominated for Best Screenplay, along with "Saving Private Ryan", "Shakespeare's Love History", "Life is Beautiful" and "The World of Chu Mén".

"It turns out that the Oscar judges scrutinize the film at a higher level than you do." Liang Xiǎo Long made a joke, and the nominations for Best Adapted Screenplay also came out, which were "Gods and Demons", "Strategy Master", "Wind and Clouds", "Simple Plan" and "Thin Red Line".

"How many nominations have you received?" Liang Xiǎo Long asked, just now he was so happy that he forgot to count it. As a result, the three NV people also looked at each other, there were too many nominations, so many that they couldn't remember, and finally Rachel said: "When the list of nominees comes out, check it on the Internet again, and it should come out simultaneously." ”

One nomination after another has come out, and now there are only six nominations left, which are also the six most anticipated by all audiences and the most important nominations for the Oscars, namely Best Actor in an NV, Best Actor in a Leading Role, Best Director and Best Picture. Directors and stars are always the topics that filmmakers are most concerned about, and others are secondary.

In previous years, Hillary Clinton didn't care much about the Oscars, because it was destined to miss her, but this year she paid more attention than anyone else, sitting in front of the TV early in the morning, never leaving during the period, just wanting to see her name on the list of nominees for Best NV Actor. In comparison, there is one person who is even more nervous than Hillary, and that is Tom, who has been the winner of the award. Like Liang Xiǎo Long, he will never mind taking a few more Xiǎo Golden People, and the "Saving Private Ryan" and "Million Dollar Baby" he starred in this year are both Oscar hit films, and his performances are also very jingzhan, and it is very likely that he will be nominated again, and even become an Oscar winner for the third time, achieving a legend that others cannot surpass.

Morgan is also staring at the TV, he has been nominated for an Oscar many times, but has always regretted not being able to get a golden man back. He hopes to be nominated again and win the xiǎo golden man to fill the biggest regret in his career.

Among the six awards, the first to be revealed is the best NV supporting actor, but this award has nothing to do with "Million Dollar Baby", "Million Dollar Baby" has no NVXING supporting role except for the NV protagonist's dragon style mother and sister, obviously these two roles are unlikely to be favored by the Oscars. Nominated for this item is Judy of Shakespeare's Love History. Dench, Casey of "The Wind Rises". Baez, Brenda of "The Dumb Singer". Blession, Rachel in "She's Lonelier Than Smoke". Griffith, Lynn from "Gods and the Devil." Redgrave.

"It must be Judy Naxiǎo Jinren." Jessica made a reckless judgment, because compared to "Shakespeare's Love History", the other four films did not have a high response, and it can only be said that the response was mediocre, which would be very unfavorable for them to compete for the golden people. Of course, this is just a conscious reaction, if their performance is really good enough, the chances of competing for xiǎo golden people are still equal.

There are also five nominees for Best Supporting Actor, namely James for "Misery". Cobain, Ed of "The World of Chu Mén". Harris, Billy of The Simple Plan. Song Dun, Jeffrey of Shakespeare's Love History. Rush and Morgan from Million Dollar Baby. Freeman.

"Nominated again." Morgan was much calmer than he imagined, just sighed lightly, and still had no confidence in whether he could win the xiǎo golden man, because he had been hit too many times by being nominated, and it was difficult to regain confidence for a while.

"There's one more nomination." Liang Xiǎo Long and the three NV people celebrated a few times, judging from the current situation, the situation can be described as very good.

The list of nominees for Best Male Supporting Actor in an NV is out, and the next is the list of nominees for Best Leading Role in an NV, and Hillary Clinton sits in front of the TV, clenched her fists, hoping that the next moment, she will see her name on the screen.

The Oscar nominees for Best Lead Actor in the NV were Gwyneth for "Shakespeare in Love". Paltrow, Kate of Elizabeth. Blanchett, Emily in "She's Lonelier Than Smoke". Watson, Meryl of "The Truth Revealed". Streep and Hillary Clinton from Million Dollar Baby. Swank.

"Oh......" Hillary exclaimed, and then suddenly jumped up, and actually completed a difficult somersault in a narrow space, which shows how much she moved at this time.

"Damn", "Unlucky", "It seems that there is no play." "It's not the right time to nominate it." Compared to Hillary's excitement, the other four NV protagonists actually sighed lightly at the same time. In people's memory, if the character sè of the film in Liang Xiǎo Dragon movie is nominated, it will not be disappointed, and the other nominees are destined to be sad.

However, something even more sad happened, Tom, who won the best actor for a second time, was nominated for the most difficult leading role in the Oscar again. What's even more excessive is that he alone won two nominations, "Million Dollar Baby" and "Saving Private Ryan" were both nominated, which made the other three nominees almost have the urge to kill.

The other three nominees are Robert Brown. Bernini, "Suffering" Nick. Nolty and Ian of Gods and Demons. Mclean.

There are only the last two awards left, but Liang Xiǎo Long is extremely relaxed, he knows the quality of "Million Dollar Baby", in the dismal year of 98, it is unknown whether he can win the last two Xiǎo Golden People, but it is no problem to get nominated. As with the original idea, Steven had to be beaten in the best director. Spielberg had to beat "Shakespeare's Love History" in the best picture section, and this was the only result he wanted.

The nominees for Best Director were Liang Xiǎo Long's "Million Dollar Baby" and Steven. Spielberg's "Saving Private Ryan", Robert. Bernini's "Life is Beautiful", John. Madden's Shakespeare in Love and Peter. Will, "The World of Chu Mén".

"My dear, looking at your relaxed look, don't you already think that the best director's xiǎo golden man is yours?" Jessica asked with a smile.

"The nominations were expected, and I had to save my nerves until the ceremony." Liang Xiǎo Long smiled.

The winners of Best Picture were "Million Dollar Baby", "Saving Private Ryan", "Life is Beautiful", "Shakespeare in Love" and "Elizabeth".

All the nominations have come out, and Liang Xiǎo Long was about to check a total of how many nominations he got on the Internet, but the host spoke first: "I am very happy to witness the production of the nomination list with the audience and witness the birth of a new record." In 1950, Fox's "Comet Beauty" was nominated for fourteen Oscars, setting an unsurpassed record. Until last year, "Titanic" only equaled this record. But this year, our captain did a miracle, and "Million Dollar Baby" won a total of 15 nominations, setting a new record. ”

"Fifteen nominations? Record? Liang Xiǎo Long was stunned, filming this film, he just went for the two awards of Best Director and Best Picture, who would have thought that he would get fifteen nominations, and he/** broke the records of "Comet Beauty" and "Titanic", this is also crazy, right?

"The host can't be mistaken, right?" The three NV people were also dumbfounded, and they would celebrate every time the nomination came out, but they didn't know that they had celebrated fifteen times.

"You heard me right, and I remember correctly." The host seemed to know the audience's heart: "Best Music, Best Visual Effects, Best Soundtrack, Best Sound Editing, Best Sound Effects, Best Costume Design, Best Art Direction, Best Editing, Best Cinematography, Best Original Screenplay, Best Supporting Actor, Best Actor, Best NV Lead, Best Director and Best Picture, a total of 15 nominations, a new record in history." ”

"I remember that in history, the films with the most Oscar awards are "Ben Hur" and "Titanic", both of which won eleven xiǎo golden figures, "Million Dollar Baby" can break the record for the most awards while breaking the most nominations? Let's look forward to the Oscars next March. The host talked about it, and after introducing "Million Dollar Baby", he also commented on other films, among which "Shakespeare in Love" is also very strong, with thirteen nominations, and the competitiveness of the Oscars is not weaker than "Million Dollar Baby".

Of course, these two films are strong, but other films are also very competitive, and "Saving Private Ryan" also received eleven nominations, which makes people dare not look at it. In addition, "Life is Beautiful" also has seven nominations, and who would dare to say that it is not competitive?

A new record was born, and Yanhuang Film Company and Weta Digital Studios are all preparing for the celebration, and they are also preparing for a new round of promotional activities to build momentum for the film, so that it can be more competitive at the awards ceremony. However, while they are busy preparing, others are also busy preparing, and under the impetus of well-intentioned people, a public opinion war is brewing on the Internet.
