1577 Shakespeare's Love History
[PS: I'm very sorry, today my house has a power outage for a day, and the call came at eight o'clock in the evening, and only two chapters were written in the end, and it must be made up for two days after tomorrow. I'm so sorry! 】
The Oscar organizing committee also wants to save face, after their first invitation was rejected, of course, it is impossible to invite each other again, and the Oscar organizing committee can't afford to lose this face.
Therefore, the audience saw that from 1951 to the present, it can be said that the Oscars are the most bleak star, and almost 13 of the world's first-line stars did not attend.
And only 13 top-level stars attended, because top-level stars are bound to make commercial blockbusters, and the probability of commercial blockbusters winning the Golden Dragon Award is very high, in the face of tens of millions of dollars in prize money, top stars can't refuse this temptation at all.
Even if these stars can refuse, the company and crew behind them can't refuse, all in all, no one will get along with money.
However, the entire Oscar Auditorium was still full, and it was impossible for the Oscar Organizing Committee to sit idly by and watch that there was an empty seat in its auditorium.
Since these stars are reluctant to come, the Oscars must lower their posture a little and invite some stars who are not very eye-catching to come.
And those second-tier or third-tier stars who were originally not very eye-catching, naturally it is impossible to miss this opportunity to appear on the Oscar stage, and they have no chance to win the Golden Dragon Award anyway.
All in all, the 1999 Oscars dinner and awards ceremony were still very lively. And in order to reflect this excitement, the organizing committee told those who refused to recognize the stars, if you don't come, we can live better, so the organizing committee rarely raised the standards of the party.
Even the final Oscar dinner raised the bar by $1,000 per table, which was indeed the highest Oscars gala ever in terms of hardware conditions.
But some smart people still smell a lot of crises from it. After all, no matter how good the hardware conditions of the Oscars are, it is not as important as the software of the stars who came to the party.
And most importantly, when all the Oscars were awarded this year, an even greater dissatisfaction and suspicion began to spread between audiences and professional filmmakers.
Because the final result of this year's Oscars has made many people unbelievable, or to the point of being a little outrageous.
One of the most prominent is the movie "Saving Private Ryan", and the Academy Award for Best Picture, after all the films were released in 1998, all filmmakers knew very well that there were only two films eligible to compete for the Oscar for Best Picture, one was "Life is Beautiful", and the other was "Saving Private Ryan".
Although from the perspective of later generations, one is a miserable film invested by Jews, and the other is a great main theme movie of the United States, if such a movie is left in Huaxia and does not give you a Douban score of less than 7.0, even if you are very awesome.
However, in 1999, this was definitely the most admired film in the whole of Hollywood, and it was also the most artistically accomplished film, and it was the only two Oscar contenders for Best Picture.
But when the 1999 Oscar nominations were announced, everyone was shocked, because the film "Saving Private Ryan", which was considered the uncrowned king because of the attention, did not receive a single film nomination.
You must know that even if "Titanic", the biggest overturn of the year, only won one award in the end, that person was nominated for more than a dozen film awards.
But this time, "Saving Private Ryan" didn't get a single award nomination.
In fact, not only "Saving Private Ryan", but also "Truman's World", "Peerless Tribulation", "Peak Moment", "Heaven and Earth Collision", "Godzilla" These are all movies with a bit of momentum.
These films, which were not nominated for an Oscar, shocked the industry just when the nominated films were announced.
Of course, later they all knew that the reason why these films were not even eligible for nomination was because the main members of these films participated in the awards gala of the Imperial Capital International Film Festival.
So the Oscars directly erased all the nominations, which seems to be a very reasonable thing, after all, it is a competitor.
But this still makes many filmmakers slander.
Because of the Imperial Capital International Film Festival as a rival, although they also directly regard the Oscars as competitors, they are very atmospheric, even if people do not come, whether it is a nomination or the final award, it is strictly according to the results of the audience's voting, and there is no meaning that you will not be awarded because you went to the Oscars.
Of course, although the bonus will not be awarded to them, the bonus does not represent honor, and the Golden Dragon Award trophy, which truly represents honor, is always genuinely awarded.
From this point of view, the Imperial Capital International Film Festival surpasses the Oscars in terms of magnanimity and fairness.
In this regard, the Oscar organizing committee is actually very regrettable in their hearts, because they are not as arrogant as Daqian, and can come up with a huge amount of bonuses, and then award the trophy and prize money separately, which not only ensures fairness, but also makes the winners unable to refuse.
But the Oscar only has the honor of such a trophy, and the prize money has never been awarded. And even if the Oscar organizing committee wants to get a bonus, it is only a bonus of about hundreds of thousands of dollars at most, which is a complete joke compared to the minimum prize money of tens of millions of dollars.
They were ridiculed by everyone when they came out, so it was better not to do it at all. But in this way, they lose both their impartiality and the threat to celebrities.
If the ban on all the films participating in the awards of the Imperial Capital International Film Festival can be understood, then the appearance of the film "Shaon's Love History" is unacceptable.
After "Saving Private Ryan" was banned by the Oscars, in everyone's hearts, the only movie that can win the best picture is "Life is Beautiful".
Even if "Life is Beautiful" falls unexpectedly, it should be such an excellent movie as "The Thin Red Line", "Truman's World" and "Elizabeth" that won awards.
But in the end, the best picture fell on "The Love History of Shaon".
Although this movie is not too bad, at least much better than "Little Times" or "Jue Ji", but it is just better than these movies, this is at most an upper-average film, and there is no comparison with other competitors at all.
But it was such a work that finally won the Best Picture Award, and the film also won 13 award nominations, and finally won 9 awards, becoming a well-deserved super winner of the 1999 Oscars.
But after such a super winner was released, it brought endless ridicule to the Oscars.
"Back then, "Titanic" won 16 nominations but did not receive anything, and today "Shaon Love History" won nine awards, which fully proves that "Shaon Love History" is a film far beyond "Titanic".
"If Mr. Shakespeare knew that a film that was made up and arranged for him with all kinds of lovers would be able to win the Oscar for Best Picture!"
"It turned out to be extremely disgusting to me, and I swear I'll never pay attention to any Oscar-related news again!"
"Originally, I was very sympathetic to Oscar, being tortured so much by a local tyrant, but now, I just think Oscar is disgusting. When they are treated unfairly, they should announce a more just result, which is what the Oscars should do, instead of playing us like fools! ”
Remarks like this fermented in all the media, and all of a sudden, Oscar's reputation began to stench.
