Made in Hollywood

It's the hottest day in America since 2001, NBC's live coverage from the Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida, now that the second quarter is over, but the Super Bowl is over. destined to be written into history...

In the living room of the Duke's Manor, Duke was sitting in front of the TV, waiting patiently. Tina Fey came over with a pot of black tea, Is it almost halftime?

It's about to start. Duke took the black tea from her, Thank you.

Tina Fey was sitting on the sofa next to her. She had no interest in the game itself. It is said that Britney Spears will perform at halftime.

Do you like her very much? Duke was a little strange.

Following him, Tina Fei has seen the other side behind the halo of countless big stars, how could she like a youth idol.

Don't you know? Tina Fey thought about it, made sure she hadn't mentioned it to Duke, and said, Britney is considered by many to be the next Madonna, the hottest young singer today, Nancy. and Eno Martin of CAA are currently poaching her.

Duke nodded. There is no doubt about Britney's value. Now it is the most popular stage, and it must be the most sought-after product of the brokerage company.

However, with Britney's bad emotional intelligence, I don't know which company will I choose in the end?

On the TV, the halftime commercial had not yet opened, and the sports commentator continued to rant, In the first two quarters, the Ravens defense completely dominated, the Giants only advanced for a poor 71 yards, and 5 forced to concede the ball 4 times and sacked 4 times! The most incredible thing is that the offenses of the two teams performed very well at one time, they completed 3 touchdowns in 36 seconds, breaking the record for the most touchdowns in the shortest time. record...

Sitting in front of the TV as well, Norman Shearer was drinking beer and waiting quietly, which belongs to Hollywood, and belongs to the advertising time period of movie trailers.

Although he was waiting, Shearer's brows were frowning.

He likes Duke? Rosenberg-style movies, especially the Matrix series. In recent years, I have been looking forward to seeing the sequel, but I can only wait, because the director who created the super sci-fi classic went to New Zealand to make the Lord of the Rings trilogy.

The Lord of the Rings is a work that many directors dare not touch!

Just as Shearer was thinking about it, commercial time finally came, first for a series of products, and then for Hollywood time. Pearl Harbor, Shrek, Tomb Raider, Fast and the Furious and other summer movies have appeared one by one, and even Monsters Electric Company and A Beautiful Mind, which will be released only on Thanksgiving Christmas A short trailer has been released.

Isn't The Lord of the Rings going to advertise at the Super Bowl? Hiller frowned even more.

The release time of The Fellowship of the Ring has long been announced, and it was selected on the weekend before Memorial Day in the summer season. Duke's film is not only the founder of Hollywood's Super Bowl advertising time. And in the years that followed, his movies were usually released in the summer, and they never missed the halftime commercials of the Super Bowl, and they were Duke fans. Also used to wait at halftime of the Super Bowl to watch the first trailer.

Wait till the end of the Hollywood ad break. Shearer finally saw the picture he wanted to see. In the raging flames, a huge, extremely evil-looking metal glove was wearing a golden ring. The ring also had nicks of words he couldn't read at all.

A female voice full of magnetism sounded, The Supreme Lord of the Rings, rule the rings!

After a few shots showing the Lord of the Rings, the picture becomes darker and darker. In the dark tones, countless armies are marching towards the volcano ahead. These are two well-equipped armies. , and can easily distinguish between humans and elves!

Then, the picture shifted to the front of the combined army of elves and humans, and a larger army rushed over the mountains and plains. The closer and closer the picture was, the close-up shots began to appear, ugly, evil, dirty...

That's a half-orc! They opened their mouths wide, bared their sharp teeth, and rushed towards the coalition army, as if they were going to eat everyone!

However, what greeted them was a dense rain of arrows!

God, their armor and weapons are so beautiful!

The camera pulled to the front of the elf formation, and Shearer's eyes widened instantly. A large number of elf warriors bent bows and arrows, shooting long arrows, and countless orcs fell to the ground.

The picture slowly zoomed out and turned into a panoramic shot. The number of people fighting on both sides was innumerable, the huge battlefield could not see the end, and every place was fighting fiercely...

Oh, My! Oh, My...

Shearer doesn't know what to say anymore. She has been a movie fan for ten years. She has watched countless movies, including many dramas about war. The epic masterpiece Gladiator was released last summer. ”, after watching the opening war scene of this film, he felt that it was intense enough and grand enough, but compared with the orcs, humans and elves in this trailer, it was simply weak!

In terms of the battlefield scene and intensity, as well as the macro panoramic display, the trailer of The Fellowship of the Ring can throw off twenty streets of Gladiator!

What an epic picture this is!

But this is only a thirty-second trailer, Shearer's emotions have just been mobilized, and the trailer has come to an end.

It was still the golden ring, it seemed to have vitality, and it drilled towards the bottom of the river, and the magnetic female voice sounded again.

Some things that should not be forgotten have turned into dust, history has become legend, legend has been passed down as myth, and the Lord of the Rings has been waiting quietly...

Lastly is the release date of the film.

The Lord of the Rings has been waiting quietly... Shearer said to himself, Yeah, the Lord of the Rings has been waiting, waiting for a suitable director to turn it into a great movie!

He sat in a daze for a while before turning off the TV, I'm going to start waiting too!

At this moment, Norman Shearer, like many people who have seen the trailer, temporarily put aside his obsession with The Matrix and decided to wait for a magical epic called The Fellowship of the Ring. Show!

Pro-Duke people are waiting for the trailer, and Duke anti-Duke people are waiting for the trailer.

As a die-hard book fan who has actively advocated protests since the filming of the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Brad Miller sat in front of the TV early, and even the New York Giants he supported were suppressed by the Ravens. I don't care, I just want to see what the hell the director known all over the world for making explosions and destroying the earth will make his The Lord of the Rings look like.

The Lord of the Rings, war, humans, elves, orcs... appeared on the TV screen one by one. In just 30 seconds, Brad Miller turned from disdain at first to wide-eyed, once in his mind The countless battles of the last alliance between humans and elves were actually displayed in front of his eyes. The picture in front of him was even a thousand times more real, magnificent and majestic than what he had imagined before!

Brad Miller's eyes were a little red, and only a die-hard Lord of the Rings fans could understand his mood at the moment, it was excitement, it was a dream come true!

After all, he had a lot of experience. As soon as the trailer ended, he thought of countless literary works destroyed by Hollywood, the agitation in his heart gradually calmed down, and his whole person regained his composure.

However, even Brad Miller himself didn't realize that he was full of longing to see what the movie version of The Lord of the Rings would look like when the weekend before Memorial Day arrived.

Is it as good as the trailer, as magical, as epic, or as messed up as rubbish!

In an office building on Wilshire Avenue in Beverly Hills, the artist management company did not have a holiday on Super Bowl Day. For Michael Ovitz, who was regrouping, although he successively poached from CAA, ICM and William Morris There are many customers, but compared to these big companies in the entertainment agency industry, the artist management company is only a newcomer, and every minute and second is extremely precious to the company.

Of course, as a company mainly engaged in Hollywood business, Michael Ovitz also watched the halftime commercials of the Super Bowl. This summer, two films of his packaged services were released, even if there were no real strong competitors on the same weekend, Looking at the entire summer season, it can be said that all the big productions released are in competition with his projects.

If you want to be a winner in the summer season, you must not only do yourself well, but also understand your competitors.

For the summer program, Fast and the Furious is just an inconspicuous little production, and Michael Ovitz didn't plan to invest too much resources in it. The focus of the artist management company in the summer program is Michael Bay's Pearl Harbor.

The post-production of this masterpiece of war has not yet been completed, but after seeing the trailer made by Michael Bay himself, Ovitz nodded with great satisfaction. The trailer is definitely hot enough, which is in line with the summer viewing atmosphere , especially the spiral bomb perspective imitated from Breaking the Dead Island, which has the momentum to completely overwhelm Duke Rosenberg.

After watching the trailer for Pearl Harbor, Michael Ovitz's mood improved a lot, but when he saw the trailer for The Lord of the Rings that finally appeared, his mood just got better and fell into a trough in an instant...

What a majestic battle scene it was!

Michael Ovitz has read the original book, the battle of the alliance between humans and elves under Mount Doom, Tolkien did not describe it in too much detail, and the pictures shown in the trailer almost made people tremble!

As a senior industry insider, Michael Ovitz remembers very clearly that in the history of Hollywood epic films, there has never been such a vast and complex cold weapon war scene!

Duke Rosenberg is indeed Duke Rosenberg.

He could only be so emotional. (To be continued ~^~)
