With the popularity of Twilight's first film, Twilight, fans of the movie are now at two extremes. Either love it madly and love it, or hate him and hate him.
Maybe many people are puzzled after watching the first part, why is such an ordinary and even a little vulgar and childish love bubble movie so popular?
A lot of overly sweet and protracted emotional descriptions in the four original books are typical heroine-centered plots, although I will think it's not bad, but it really doesn't reach the point where I fall madly in love.
But perhaps "New Moon" is an exception. may be because pathos + ambiguous scenes can always move people, or it may be because the emotional description in "New Moon" is not sweet and excessive, and the clues of the whole story are clear and exciting.
Before the film was finished, the media coverage was already in the dust.
Some people will feel that "New Moon" is still extremely naïve, boring and vulgar, and they will feel that they are correct in any bad reviews and bombardment articles; The other part of the population will become twilighte
, and then inexplicably began to continue to look forward to the release of "New Moon" and even "Lunar Eclipse" and "Breaking Dawn".
Sure enough, as Lionsgate said, the role of Jacob played by Li Donglai in this episode has been greatly improved...... Edward broke up with her to protect Bella and left, but Jacob, the werewolf played by Lee Dong-lai, took advantage of the situation......
Bloody dog!
Viewers who have read the original book may understand that Jacob is loyal to Bella like a dog, and Jacob played by Li Donglai also gives people a feeling of strength, safety, and reliability. It is very close to the original book and easy to accept.
Although many people think that he is snatching love with a knife, it is also to blame that Bella herself has made a lot of moves to misunderstand Jacob because she is vacillating and unsure of her inner feelings.
At the same time, members of the vampire family and the werewolf family appeared. The werewolf family always shows off their figures, and the vampire family carries out the face control to the end, all handsome guys and beautiful women.
Previously, netizens speculated that the audience of "Twilight" is today's underage girls, but in the later stage of the movie's release, most of the women who appeared in the movie theater have become women in their 20-30s, who come in groups or pull in male companions, and of course, there are some adult men who are in pairs or single.
Seeing this kind of audience, it is not difficult to understand why after Edward played cool in "Twilight", it was Jacob and his werewolf friends who showed off their bodies in "New Moon".
Just like the "indicators" issued by the producer, the director dragged the photographer to join the ranks of "showing off the figure", and there were many exaggerated and deliberate shots in the film that showed Jacob's near-perfect and strong body. Viewers who don't know the truth may not be able to stand it, but if you look at it with the mentality of "entertainment first", it is actually an interesting thing.
This made Li Donglai a little embarrassed, although he had a good figure, but he had been practicing martial arts all year round. It's not specifically to go to the gym to show the flesh.
But the tone of the movie is there, Li Donglai is not a director, just an actor, and he can't refute it.
In an interview, he mentioned the incident, saying that he was quite confused and hoped to reduce his nudity in the future. Lu's shots.
However, intentionally by the crew, there are still many shots of the upper body that have been leaked to the Internet as promotional materials in advance. It attracted a group of women to reprint and collect like crazy.
I have to accept ah, I heard that Chinese are very reserved in the face of feelings, what if Li Donglai really no longer shows a little in the future, then these photos are out of print.
Lee Dong-lai's crew had a very pleasant life, and chatted with Lim Yoona and Kim Tae-hee when they were free
……
As time progresses, the plot is slowly unfolding.
The scene on this day is that Bella jumps into the sea and is rescued by Jacob. At this point, the plot is nearing the end. Edward then commits suicide by basking in the sun half-naked in a church in Italy, even though Bella arrives at the ......
To be honest, it doesn't feel good to play a supporting role in a series movie in a row. However, Li Donglai used his own efforts to slowly change the perception of the characters on the audience.
The key word is "pathos".
A werewolf who is unswerving in love, a lonely back and sad eyes.
Li Donglai made up his mind to use Jacob's image to win sympathy, at least he would not be disgusted by fans. If the whole drama is bloody, then he will use his own efforts to create an image of a tough guy!
When he discussed this paragraph with the director, the director agreed with him.
Director Chris Weitz has previously directed "The Golden Compass" and "American Pie", and there is no doubt that he has a lot of experience. Naturally, I understand that Li Donglai's thoughts are very good.
Jacob is sad in this "New Moon", he knows what he means to Bella and he knows his place in her heart, but he still chooses to sink into the mud, constantly thinking that he still has hope.
And it is true, Bella has compromised several times, because Edward has disappeared for more than half a year and only has this faithful, honest and kind friend with a super sense of fitness, and the kiss before the phone rings is enough to explain it.
In the last scene, Bella ruthlessly tells Jacob that she will choose Edward, Jacob looks at Bella after turning into a wolf, and through the camera, he sees tears overflowing from his huge eyes...
When the director shouted cut, the whole crew applauded them. In this shot, Li Donglai fully shows that sentimental feeling and the image of an arrogant werewolf.
At this point, after more than a month of hard shooting, Li Donglai's role is over, and he can take a break for a while.
But it wasn't a lot of time, and he still had a lot of work to do.
The global release of "Source Code" has basically ended except for a limited number of countries. The release in China will wait for next month, but the distributor, China Film, has also entered the promotional period of the film. Very helplessly, he found that "Source Code" actually collided with "Eavesdropping". It is destined to be a battle between the dragon and the tiger.
Whether Li Donglai's first Hollywood-style movie directed and acted by himself can be accepted by Chinese audiences is a test.
After all, there is a deep generation gap between Chinese and Western cultures across the Pacific Ocean, and it can't be said that it is on fire, and before it is tested by the box office, every qiē is unknown, and no one dares to pack tickets.
The global box office of 350 million has been accounted for by most of it. Counting DVDs and movie soundtracks, "Phantom" has earned more than 100 million. This small studio originally had so many people. From more than 3 million at the beginning, it has appreciated to more than 30 times today. I have to say that it is a step to the sky.
The company had already changed its location, renting a floor opposite Paramount as an office space, and the salary and number of employees had also increased significantly.
At the same time, the Phantom Company has officially launched the shooting plan for the second film since its inception.
The filming location was set as Las Vegas, the "Sin City", and the people in the company were a little excited to go to Las Vegas at public expense.
But everyone knows that this time it is not destined to be as small as before. The budget is 35 million, which is the number that Li Donglai came up with after his initial estimate.
This budget is not comparable to "Twilight", and it is not comparable to the courage of those entertainment bosses who have hundreds of millions of budgets at every turn. But for the Phantom, it is a real big production.
