readx;?“ Honey, are you awake? ”
As soon as Duke opened his eyes, he heard Scarlett? Johnson's voice, she was sitting at the dresser arranging her long curly blonde hair, glanced back at this side, put down the rhino horn comb, and picked up a file next to her. Pen, Fun, Pavilion www.biquge.info [Fengyun Novel Reading]
Scarlett gestured to Duke and said, "Tina sent the latest stats early in the morning. ”
"Oh?" Duke immediately came to his senses, "Just tell me about it." ”
"That's a staggering number, my dear, and you have to be mentally prepared."
A little sold, Scarlett? Johnson's eyes turned back to the stat report, glanced at the number again, and then said, "According to preliminary statistics, the midnight box office figure of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" is as high as $72 million!" ”
This number is indeed amazing, Duke couldn't help but nod slightly, such a high midnight box office figure also broke the midnight box office record held by "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" for several years, and also meant that "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" had the most perfect start.
Scarlett? Johnson's words did not stop, and continued, "At present, the film has a high praise rate of 96% of the theatrical audience, the average audience score is 'A+', the 28,775 users of the IMDB website have a score of 9.8, the audience popularity popcorn index is 97%, and 77 media reporters have scored 92 points. ”
With that, she put the statistics report aside, looked at the wall clock on the wall, and reminded Duke, "Hurry up and wash up, you still have to accept an online interview that you can share in real time after breakfast." ”
"I know."
Duke jumped out of bed and got into the bathroom, and ten minutes later, with Scarlett? Johnson appeared in the dining room together, and they had just sat down, and Emma, the butler, not only asked the maid to bring breakfast. The latest newspapers were also delivered, as Duke was customary.
Whether it's an entertainment newspaper or not, "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" has appeared in quite a prominent position, and the Los Angeles Times has put the film-related report on the front page.
"Whether you're a 'Star Wars fan' or not, you'll love this film!"
That's the headline of the Los Angeles Times, and it's unusually striking.
"The expectations that Star Wars: The Force Awakens are unmatched. This is the return of the work after a decade after 2004's "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge of the Sith". Rosenberg's acquisition of George for more than $4 billion? Lucas's company launched its first film and, of course, more importantly, the film made films such as Mark? Hamill, Kelly? Fisher, Harrison? The main cast of Ford, including the main story, reunited. ”
"With all kinds of expectations, fans have higher requirements for the film. And "The Force Awakens" didn't disappoint either, director Duke? Rosenberg perfectly interprets the core idea of the Star Wars series, and presents those well-known elements in front of people in their original form. ”
"Advanced special effects technology and 'Campbell? Joseph's mythological approach to storytelling, as well as the concept of heroism in the '40s, have allowed the Star Wars series – especially the trilogy – to influence generations of fans from all walks of life. When we think of 'The Force', a correlation between light and darkness comes to mind, and the film doesn't use 'religion' to instill spiritual thoughts in us, but it makes us feel the greatness of it. ”
"For The Force Awakens, Duke? Rosenberg and his team have absorbed all of the above and created a completely new narrative setting. Combine these elements. The result is a film that is emotional, humorous, and contemplative, and will shock both die-hard Star Wars fans and newcomers. ”
"Duke? Rosenberg and The Force Awakens make viewers revisit an age-old question: innate nature versus nurture. This biological and sociological theory is perfectly illustrated in the film, and no matter what your background is, whether you are a stormtrooper or an abandoned baby, you have the right to choose again. ”
"As far as the film itself is concerned, 'The Force Awakens' is very humorous and funny, and there are a lot of plots that can make the hairs stand on end. The actors' performances are also three-dimensional and realistic. Oscar? Isaac vs. Daniel? Wu Jun gave the character a changeable and uninhibited personality at the right time, and Daisy? Ridley created another classic image of a tough heroine on the big screen. ”
"Harrison? Ford vs. Kelly? The scene where Fisher appeared together also reminded people of the romantic relationship between the two. Although the film is 2 hours and 15 minutes long, it has a fast-paced and tight narrative that can firmly capture the excitement of fans. It doesn't feel verbose at all. ”
"I have to say, Duke? Rosenberg artistically blends the collection's past themes and characters into a new context. Viewers who haven't seen the Star Wars franchise will enjoy the film as well, but if you do, you'll know more about its twists and turns and how successful it is. ”
As a Duke-biased media, under the PR efforts of Lucasfilm. The Los Angeles Times is arguably the most active newspaper in print to promote Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
After simply flipping through the newspaper, Duke finished his breakfast and sat down in front of the computer on time, ready to be interviewed by even the interview website.
The interview was conducted through online sharing, and there will be promotional entries on the interface of all instant sharing users.
When the interview began, Duke deliberately looked at the number of people who showed interest in the interview - 3.78 million!
Exclusive interviews are only one aspect, but it is another thing to attract the attention of fans and passers-by through exclusive interviews in the later stage.
After a brief exchange, the first question appeared on the screen in front of Duke.
"You left the film with an open-ended ending or a big mystery, how did you think about it when you made it?"
Seeing this problem, Duke thought for a while, and quickly knocked out a letter with both hands, "I think the interesting thing about Star Wars is its various unfolding, in the first Star Wars, there were many mysteries from the beginning of the story, and many problems were not solved by the end of the film, so it can be derived into a trilogy to make people intoxicated." We're using the same approach to building the new trilogy, and I'm sure you'll learn more about the storyline of the series as it goes. ”
The other party continued to ask, "A lot of fans want to know about the relationship between Rey and Finn, because in this episode, they are more like friends and there is no love element in it, but is it possible that they will be a couple?" ”
Duke directly denied, "I think one of the major themes of this film is friendship, many movies appear that a man and a woman have love by default, the fun of this movie is also the fun of Star Wars, that is, it is not limited to love, but about loyalty, finding a family, building a family, as for this movie, the love element is not very important, it emphasizes respecting each other and caring for each other, rather than a simple love relationship." ”
"There's a hilarious scene where BB-8 goes down the stairs in the film, how did you shoot it?"
"How did we shoot it?"
Duke knew that the other party was asking about BB-8's shocking glance, and quickly typed out the answer with the keyboard, "If you've seen the behind-the-scenes footage, that scene is actually our puppeteer Brian, wearing a green special effects suit and following BB-8 for C control, this puppeteer is very good, he's very engaged, sometimes looking at him, you can see how he fits his personality into the character, removing him from the camera makes me feel guilty, because he works so hard in every scene, but every time we have to move him out of the camera." ”
The two sides asked and answered a lot of behind-the-scenes topics about the film, and then moved on to the main questions agreed in advance, which is also a question that countless fans have asked on the Internet since yesterday, and it is also the most eye-catching interview.
"It can be seen from the film that Rey has an extraordinary background, can you talk about her life experience?"
Before answering this question, Duke looked at the number of followers, which had risen to nearly five million, "I do know a lot of information, but it is not appropriate for me to say at this time, this is the most confidential thing in Lucasfilm, I signed a non-disclosure agreement, I don't want to be sued." ”
Duke still appropriately revealed a little, "Rey is not an ordinary girl, her origin is quite complicated. ”
With this interview as the guide, Warner Bros. and Lucasfilm officially launched a post-screening marketing plan, and the core of this plan is to create a topic, spark discussion in the United States and even the world, and complete the upgrade of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" from media marketing to social marketing.
The specific identity of the heroine Rey is undoubtedly the focus.
As Duke's interview appeared on the Internet, it immediately became the hottest topic on the Internet, and countless fans started discussions and speculated about Rey's identity.
Duke's sailors were also dispatched again, constantly making various remarks on the Internet, raising the heat of this discussion and speculation.
On many popular websites such as Twitter and Instant Share, half a day has passed, and the discussion about Rey has become a trend.
Some people speculated, "Rey is Han?" Daughter of Solo and Princess Leia! ”
He doesn't just think Rey is Han? The daughter of Solo and Princess Leia, is it Kylo? Lun's sister also gave a specific explanation, "Judging from the content of the film, Rey is definitely a famous family, and her background is not small. ”
Someone then retorted, "Rey can't be Han?" The daughter of Solo and Princess Leia, if the father Han in the film? It is understandable that Solo failed to recognize his daughter, and his mother, Princess Leia, did not even react at all. And when Rey used the Force to see the fantasy she once had, she didn't have anything to do with Han? Clues to Solo and Princess Leia! ”
The man also left his opinion, "Rey is a descendant of Obi-Wan!" (To be continued.) )
