readx;?“ You haven't looked at IMDB for the past two days? ”

At a café on Manhattan's Upper East Side, Erin? Lauder slowly stirred the coffee and said to Duke, who was sitting across from him, "It's really lively." Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo”

"Did something happen?" Scarlett next to Duke was even more curious.

Duke took a sip of his coffee cup before guessing, "Is it for the IMDB rating rankings?" ”

Although there is no specific attention, Tina? In the report submitted by Faye this morning, it was also mentioned that fans of "The Dark Knight" are at war with fans of "The Godfather" on IMDB.

"Your fans are giving 'The Godfather' low scores, and 'The Godfather' fans are giving your 'The Dark Knight' low scores."

She deliberately made a joke, "I also went to IMDB to give "The Godfather" a score." ”

Scarlett pinched her chin and recalled, "I remember that 'The Dark Knight' was still number one, right?" ”

Erin? Lauder nodded, "Yes, it's number one, but the score has been reduced to 9.7." ”

"What about The Godfather?" Duke asked.

From the seventies to the present, this movie has also cultivated a large number of fans.

"It's down to nine," Erin? Lauder thought about what she had just seen this morning, and said, "Your fans are mainly teenagers, they are highly motivated, their emotions are also high, and they also have an advantage in numbers, and it is difficult for "The Godfather" to guarantee a score of more than nine." ”

Scarlett suddenly looked at Duke and made an unreliable suggestion, "Why don't you let Pani lead that team inside?" I believe that "The Godfather" will definitely blow up. ”

"You know too much." Duke glared at her, then shook his head and said, "It's just a dispute between fans, there's no need to have a professional team join in." ”

It's not just Duke who thinks this way, there are many people who follow The Dark Knight, David? Ellison was naturally one of them.

This kind of dispute on the Internet must not be hidden from the eyes of those who have a heart, David? Ellison started out trying to push in the back and take advantage of it. But after careful consideration, I chose to give up.

With the current momentum of "The Dark Knight", it is not at all dragged down by this little entanglement, rather than distracting its own power. It is better to pool all the resources and do a good job in the publicity and distribution of the most critical stage before the release of "I Am Legend".

"I Am Legend" is about to be released in North America, and the situation is quite grim, and "The Dark Knight" still maintains a daily box office of more than $20 million even on weekdays. Such a number is a single-day box office that can only be obtained by many big productions on weekends.

The premiere of this film must have chosen New York, where the story takes place, David? Ellison also made a point of contacting a theater in Washington Square as the premiere venue, and he also watched "The Dark Knight", and now regrets that he didn't think of IMAX in the first place, if it was produced with IMAX, "I Am Legend" must have caused a strong response.

It's been a few years since he entered Hollywood, David? Despite his arrogance, Ellison was much more realistic. He doesn't ask a lot for "I Am Legend", as long as he can hit the box office of "The Dark Knight" the next weekend and win the top spot in the North American box office.

In that case, "I Am Legend" would need to get at least $80 million in the first week.

Although there is no professional team and water army involved, IMDB's score war has intensified.

At a time when the scores of "The Godfather" and "The Dark Knight" were declining, their respective avid fans deliberately voted for their opponents with low scores for the top spot, and by Thursday, the 1-point vote for "The Godfather" had quickly risen to nearly five percent, and "The Dark Knight" was not much better. The proportion of 1 point votes reached 3 percent, but it was as high as 100,000 10 votes, ensuring that the film firmly occupied the first place in the TOP250 ranking with a score of 9.6.

Fans often behave spontaneously and fanatically, and fans of the two films not only score low scores for each other. also began to attack in their respective comment areas, and even rose to the level of abuse.

For example, fans of "The Godfather" angrily called the fans of "The Dark Knight" "Duke Blow".

But after all, the Internet is the world of young people, if you talk about directors alone, Duke has an absolutely unparalleled status in the hearts of young fans, and the fans of "The Godfather" are much older, although there are many fanatics. But after all, it is impossible to compete with the younger generation on the Internet.

Anyone with a discerning eye can see that attacking each other like this is a must-lose situation.

As a result, fans of "The Godfather" chose to expand the area of the war, and some people posed as fans of Duke and "The Dark Knight" and began to attack other films in the top 250 top 10, such as "Pulp Fiction", "The Golden Three" and "One Flew Over the Asylum".

In just half a day on Thursday, there were a large number of 1-point votes in the ratings of these films.

Then, more fans joined in, and while the fans of "The Dark Knight" attacked "The Godfather", they also went to other film areas to pretend to have low scores, and fans of other films did not subdivide, and they all scored low scores for "The Godfather" and "The Dark Knight".

Although IMDB originally had a water army that often haunted, the order was quite good, and the behavior of fans this time undoubtedly seriously damaged the order of IMDB, especially on the Internet, people's self-control is even worse, and it is common for each other to leave messages and attack.

The feud has even spread to many movie forums and social networking sites, including Duke's instant sharing account, which has been flooded with attacks in his message columns.

When the matter came to this point, it naturally attracted the attention of the media.

"In the previous MDB rankings, "The Godfather" was first, "The Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King" was second, and "The Godfather 2" was third."

"Until one day, "The Dark Knight" made its debut, like a bright meteor across the sky, breaking the originally quiet night sky, countless sleeping fans opened their eyes and turned their eyes to the sky, and the gears of fate began to work."

"Duke? Rosenberg was originally a god, and "The Dark Knight" is like a new god he created, attracting many believers, absorbing a lot of faith, and fanatical believers vowing to push their god to the top of the world. ”

"In order to defeat the invincible "The Godfather", they swiped their IDs day and night to give "The Dark Knight" a 10 and "The Godfather" a 1 point, and the fans of "The Godfather" are doing the same thing......"

Yahoo Entertainment's coverage has undoubtedly raised the internet battle to the media level.

Some tabloids are even more afraid that the world will not be chaotic, and they began to use this incident to hype up Duke and Francis? Coppola's contradictions are sharp......

"Those guys, always like to exaggerate."

Friday morning, Sophia? Coppola drank morning tea with Duke and said, "Yesterday, there were paparazzi who ran to my father's house to ask him about it. ”

"The media needs news points." Duke looked out through the glass window and gestured with his eyes, "There are quite a few paparazzi coming over, believe it, Sophia?" Tomorrow there will be a tabloid saying that I have an ulterior relationship with you. ”

"They've been talking about it for more than ten years." Sophia shrugged, "Let them go whatever they want." ”

She then changed the subject, put down the teacup, and asked with interest, "I Am Legend premiered yesterday, David?" In an interview, Ellison said that his film will definitely win the box office this weekend, and now the statistics should be almost out, have you got it? ”

"Not yet." Duke stretched out his finger and pointed at it, "Tina is waiting, I guess it won't be long." ”

David? Ellison's new film received quite well after its release, and for the sake of publicity, Will? Smith almost fought hard, not only did he promote a divorce crisis before the screening, but in an interview at last night's premiere, he also claimed that he was preparing to run for the presidential election and strive to be in the White House in the next ten years.

These eye-catching practices have also made many media hype.

"Where's Scarlett?" Sophia changed the subject, "Why didn't you see her?" ”

"I left New York yesterday." Duke put down his teacup, withdrew his gaze from the glass window, and said, "Captain America is in post-production, and there are a lot of scenes about her that need to be voiced. ”

Unlike "Hulk", which is in the final stages of post-production, which will be released this winter, "Captain America" will have to wait until next year's summer vacation.

Although this superhero is strictly a bit outdated, the orthodox American spirit he represents can naturally arouse the audience's favor.

However, the overseas market response of this film will be a bit problematic, after all, he is too American.

"Tina is here." Sophia looked in the direction of the entrance to the restaurant.

Duke turned his head to look at him too, Tina? Fei stepped on high heels, walked over unhurriedly, waved hello to the two, and sat down next to Duke.

Ordered your own morning tea, Tina? Fei said directly, ""I Am Legend" did not have an advance screening, and the box office statistics of the midnight show have just been received, 8.82 million US dollars, which is basically in line with the expectations of the outside world. ”

Sofia? Coppola sighed, "Will? Smith's appeal is still very strong. ”

"David? Ellison made a wise choice. ”

As he said in the past, superstars are a rare resource for the whole of Hollywood, and their status cannot be measured by ordinary actors at all, "If there is no collapse in the future, "I Am Legend" may meet Disney's expectations." ”

Tina? Fei continued, "This will have a certain impact on us." ”

Duke thought for a moment and asked, "Have you confirmed what I asked you to confirm?" ”

"It's confirmed." Tina? Fei pointed to the faint dark circles under her eyes, "I specifically went to see the midnight show of "I Am Legend". ”

Without even thinking about it, Duke said, "Spread the word to the animal protection organizations and the dog lovers' associations." (To be continued.) )
