Movie Master

Chapter 205

"Lance, after filming a work like 'City of God', followed by a completely different work, do you have any special feelings?" Since it was the premiere ceremony, Allen, as the host, more It was the existence of a sideshow. After a simple interview, the right to ask questions was handed over to the reporters on the scene. The first question was obviously expected.

Lance was already prepared for such a question, and he joked with a smile, "If I say, I actually made 'City of God' as a commercial film from the very beginning, so the two works don't have much to say. No one would believe the difference." This remark made the scene burst into laughter, "But I must admit that the application of computer special effects in 'The Day After Tomorrow' is a new field, and it is obviously not an easy task. Maybe if I have a chance, I should ask Robert-Zemeckis for advice." The audience couldn't help but burst into applause again.

The director who filmed "Forrest Gump", after finishing the filming of "The Rest of the Deserted Island", devoted himself to the research of motion capture technology, wholeheartedly wanting to contribute to the development of the film's digital special effects, He is well-known in Hollywood, and many people have ridiculed that Robert is "crazy". This year, Robert's "Polar Express", which was shot entirely with motion capture technology, will be released in November and has attracted much attention.

Lance's remarks were obviously humorous with some ridicule.

However, Lance's answer obviously avoided the question head-on, and he didn't intend to give a straightforward response, which obviously dissatisfied some people. So, the question came again, "Not long ago, Brad Pitt mentioned in an interview that he didn't think you were qualified to direct 'Troy'. What do you think about this?"

Lance followed the voice and found that it was the same reporter as the previous question. This reporter was not unknown. He was Cliff Robinson, a senior entertainment reporter for the "Los Angeles Times". When he was in Diorama Films before, Lance had dealt with him several times. Cliff and Tucker had a good personal relationship—after all, Los Angeles is the headquarters of Diorama Films. After six years of hard work, the network is still Very solid.

Cliff's question was obviously trying to sow discord and create more topical gimmicks. In fact, Brad’s interview with Percy mentioned it to Lance, and Brad wanted to answer “Is Wolfgang Petersen the best director for ‘Troy’? Maybe Peter Jackson or Lancelot - Strelo would be a better choice", when he said that, his original words were "I don't think Lance is suitable to direct 'Troy', obviously, Wolfgang is the best choice" .

You could tell Brad was consciously targeting Lance—he didn't bring up Peter Jackson, but he did a good job at the surface. After all, an actor who has come to Brad's height, unless he really doesn't deal with it, will rarely tear his face in front of the media, because it will also affect his own image.

Cliff's out-of-context is a typical method used by journalists to create conflicts. This is an obvious trap. Whether it is the first or the second world, Lance has seen a lot of it in major news media. He saw through Kerry immediately. husband's true intentions. However, Lance did not intend to go around.

Reporters are using him, so why isn't he using reporters?

"Fortunately, he is not the one who controls the economic lifeline of the 'acquired' cost budget. I think." Lance's teasing made many people chuckle. Allen had already planned to stand up and help Lance out of the siege. ——Encountering such a difficult problem at the premiere ceremony is not a good thing for the celebratory atmosphere of the premiere, but I did not expect Lance to defuse the attack with a simple sentence, which made Allen feel a little more at ease.

But Allen was shocked immediately. Because Lance immediately said, "However, in my personal opinion, Brad is not the best candidate to play Achilles in my mind." After saying this, everyone was stunned, not only because Lance's positive response is also due to Lance's extraordinary point of view-after "Troy" was determined to be led by Brad, almost everyone believed that Achilles played by Brad was a perfect choice. but now……

Cliff, who was standing under the stage, became excited in an instant, but he felt something was wrong in his heart, but at this moment he couldn't care less, because Lance stepped into the trap according to the plan, and this was the perfect beginning !

Lance seemed to be unaware of the sensation his words created. He shrugged, "Brad is a very good actor, but he is more suitable for Apollo than Achilles. In addition, In Homer's epic, Achilles died before breaking through Troy, but obviously, if he played Achilles, the screenwriter could not let him exit half of the movie, which is a problem for the screenwriter. It's a tricky thing."

Lance's seemingly unremarkable words are actually disgusting Brad's "fame burden" and dragging down the quality of the entire script of "Troy". But this kind of meaning is hidden very deeply. For a while, everyone may feel that something is wrong, but they can't tell why. Immediately after Lance's words continued, "Besides, 'Troy' already has Orlando Bloom and Diane Kruger, doesn't it? So, luckily, I don't have 'Troy' The one who casts fate."

This sentence definitely has a lot of meaning - Orlando and Diane are currently considered representatives of the vase, so what does Lance mean...?

Keira, who was standing by the side, understood immediately, and turned to look at Lance, with an indescribable smile appearing between her brows; while Allen resisted his urge to laugh out loud, and stood solemnly. Beside, pretending not to understand what happened at all.

The joy on the brows of Cliff was already uncontrollable. He even thought about the title of tomorrow's headline, "Lancelot: Brad is a vase, not worthy of an epic hero". Such a sensational headline is bound to It will cause a series of chain reactions, and the smell of gunpowder between "the day after tomorrow" and "Troy" will become more and more turbulent. The summer file war is definitely worthy of the name!

Thinking of this, Cliff temporarily paused. In many cases, enough is enough to fan the flames, and it is not so exciting to explain everything clearly. However, before Cliff relaxed, someone not far away began to stand up and challenge, "Lance, the release of 'The Day After Tomorrow' will face a severe situation, and 'Troy' will be released next week. For 'The Day After Tomorrow', the pressure on the box office of its premiere is also enormous, many people think that the box office of the film will be a disaster, do you feel worried about this?"

Box office issues, premieres will never lack bright spots. However, the voice and intonation of the question was not good. Cliff looked over, and it was Brian Barlow of the "San Francisco Chronicle". This made Cliff smile slightly and began to appreciate the good show.

Lance's eyes just fell on Bryan's body lightly, and then jumped over, as if he didn't realize that this guy in front of him was the enemy who repeatedly provoked him on Oscar night. Not only that, Lance even showed a calm smile and nodded, "Indeed, this is indeed a disaster."

Such an opening statement actually showed weakness, which made everyone a little unprepared, but then Lance changed the subject, "'Troy' is also a disaster, isn't it?" After saying this, Lance paused deliberately, and the scene even The sound of gasping for air could be clearly heard, and many viewers looked at Lance in astonishment, all faces wondering: Why did the painting style suddenly change?

Lance didn't seem to be aware of the waves he created, and a smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, "'The day after tomorrow' is a disaster that foreshadows the future, while 'Troy' is a disaster that predicts the past. So, I think , Disasters are not something we should worry about, and the future is even less something we can worry about.”

Lance subtly swayed the meaning of Bryan's question and responded. But Lance obviously had something to say, satirizing that "Troy" is now delusional about winning the box office, which is completely arrogant. No one can predict what has not yet happened in the future, and the box office trend is not simply "one plus one equals two". Following the formula on paper will inevitably lead to the correct answer.

This, everyone knows. But when Lance pointed it out, the crew of "Troy" lay down in an instant.

Brian could sense the deep meaning of Lance's words, but he was obviously unwilling to let it go, so he asked again, "Does this mean that you have enough confidence in the movie's box office?"

Lance narrowed his eyes slightly, and looked at Brian carefully. Just when everyone thought that Lance was going to get angry next, Lance burst out laughing, "May I ask back like this, am I How about attending today's premiere with the confidence of a disastrous box office failure?"

In an instant, Brian's rudeness and rudeness were fully exposed in Lance's words, and the audience at the scene burst into laughter. The loud laughter seemed to be the most direct mockery of Brian. This made Brian clenched his fist and gave Lance a hard look.

In fact, similar to Brian's question, many reporters will ask, and the crew only needs to answer some official polite words to get over it. But Lance obviously didn't want Brian to succeed, and a simple retaliation made Brian look like he didn't have the professionalism of a reporter.

"Very good, very good, very good." Allen's voice finally found a gap and came in. The brief confrontations at the scene were full of tension, and the verbal swords that could detonate the volcano at any time made "the day after tomorrow" The peaceful and stable premiere ceremony once again ushered in the highlights. Tonight’s accidents are really one after another, "I can feel that everyone is looking forward to the movie "The Day After Tomorrow". Kevin Hart and Michael Fassbender walking down the red carpet were a bit overwhelmed."

Silently, Allen resolved the sharp atmosphere, and at the same time brought the topic to the two actors who had just stepped onto the red carpet. Everyone at the scene diverted their attention, but when Lance's eyes made slight contact with Brian in the air, sparks burst out for half a second, and then both of them looked away and shifted their attention.

Cliff, who was standing aside, showed a slight smile.
