Made in Hollywood

May God be with you.

Walking into the inmates at the University of California School of Medicine, Duke and Scarlett Johansson shook hands or greeted each wounded with solemn faces, and did not refuse some people's requests for group photos. He didn't seem to care about the injury at all, not only gathered around to take a photo with Duke, but also posted it on the Internet through instant sharing or Twitter immediately.

After nearly half the morning, Duke and Scarlett Johansson walked out of the University of California School of Medicine and were surrounded by countless reporters at the gate.

Duke, what do you think about this matter?

The murderer is said to be imitating a clown, is that true?

Don't you feel like you take some responsibility for the films you make?

Are you here because you feel guilty?

Some reporters and paparazzi asked quite bluntly, Are you doing public relations for Warner Brothers this time?

I represent myself, not any company. I also hope that no one will maliciously speculate that this is a public relations activity for the film.

Duke would of course deny it, and then said sadly, Words can no longer express the shock I feel. I think we may not be able to truly understand the pain of the victims and their families, but my heart will be with them.

Christian Bale and his wife who came out later attracted a large number of reporters, and Duke left the University of California School of Medicine in a car under the escort of bodyguards.

Before the official police report was released, he would not say anything casually, and the previous words were carefully drafted by Penny Kelly.

The impact of the shooting was so great that even the Washington authorities and the White House expressed concern. The Los Angeles County Police Department held a formal press conference at noon.

Los Angeles County Sheriff Lee Pace released a formal investigation report at the media briefing, stating that in the past 60 days. James? Holmes bought two Glock brand 40-caliber pistols, a 12-gauge shotgun and an AR-15 semi-automatic rifle from a local gun store.

During the same period, James Holmes purchased more than 3,000 rounds of rifle ammunition, 3,000 rounds of pistol ammunition and 300 rounds of shotgun ammunition via the Internet.

Also through the Internet, he purchased multiple automatic rifle magazines, including a 100-round magazine that we found at the crime scene, Lee Pace said to media cameras. Experts tell me that James Holmes can fire 50 to 60 rounds a minute with this magazine. That's pretty quick fire in that kind of theater, as far as I know.

However, Lee Pace also confirmed that James? Holmes all weapons, magazines and bullets are legally purchased.

then. The Los Angeles police announced the latest statistics, currently confirming that the death toll is 12, and the number of injuries has been lowered to 58 from the previously reported 59.

Among the dead and wounded, most were shot, and only a few wounded were injured by other circumstances.

Not only that. Li Peisi also talked about the latest development of the case. After being arrested, James Holmes admitted to installing an explosive device in his residence with a trigger organ, which forced the police to evacuate five buildings in the community where James Holmes lived internal personnel.

morning. Police, along with agents from the Bureau of Liquor, Tobacco and Firearms and the FBI, cordoned off the scene and used a vehicle-mounted lift to approach a third-floor apartment in a red brick building. The window was broken with an ax, and a 20-foot long pole was inserted, and a video camera was attached to the pole to observe the situation inside the house.

He described the apartment as being strewn with wires. There are soda cans all over the floor, and wires connecting chemicals and combustion devices.

What we're seeing is a very complex situation, said the police chief, whose eyes were red and he obviously didn't sleep well last night. It may take hours, or days, to crack, and we don't know how to deal with it... I have never I have seen such a scene.

Los Angeles police have temporarily abandoned efforts to dismantle the explosive device, pending the arrival of federal government experts on the scene.

The police did not determine James? Holmes's motive for the crime, nor did they find any signs of terrorism related to the incident.

However, the words of James Holmes claiming to be a clown have long been exposed by the media.

As soon as the press conference was over, some experts couldn't wait to jump out and accept media interviews, saying that this was a typical imitation crime, and the imitated movie should bear the main responsibility.

Meanwhile, Duke and Warner Bros. have issued separate public statements.

Warner Bros. issued a statement saying, Warner Bros. Pictures is deeply saddened to learn of this shocking and tragic event. Our sincerest condolences to the victims of the tragedy and the families of the victims.

Warner also announced that it will cancel the red carpet premieres scheduled in Paris, France, Mexico, Tokyo and other places, will not publicly announce the first weekend box office of The Dark Knight Rises, and will delete The Dark Knight Rises pre-trailer. Footage and remarks involving guns, explosions.

The shooting was a disaster and my condolences go out to the innocent spectators who were victims of the incident.

Duke issued a statement on behalf of the cast and crew of The Dark Knight Rises, I believe film is a great art form in America, and it is important and enjoyable to watch stories on the big screen and share the experience with others. The movie theater is my home and it is a catastrophe for me to see someone violently destroying a movie theater in such a brutal way. No words can say enough about the innocent victims of this shooting Expressing our grief, I just want to say our hearts go out to them and their families.

The incident has caused great repercussions at the social level, especially Austria Heitan, who has always advocated the ban on guns, and almost immediately stood up.

After learning the latest developments of the shooting, Ao Heitan expressed shock and grief and expressed condolences to the victims of the shooting. He also ordered the national flag to be lowered at half-mast for 6 days to mourn the victims. Including the White House, embassies and consulates outside the United States, all public office buildings, military posts, naval base headquarters, naval ships and other places, all flags were lowered at half-mast for 6 days to mourn this fatal accident.

Michelle and I are devastated and devastated by this horrific shooting. My administration will do everything in our power to support the families harmed by the shooting and stand with them through this incredibly difficult time. We are in a dark and challenging time. In times of coexistence, we must come together as one American family.

In this public statement, Ao Heitan said, The federal government will allow the suspects to be punished fairly and do their best to protect the safety of the American people. The gunman's actions are evil and meaningless. We will never understand what led to Gunmen take lives. It makes us feel the fragility of life and the preciousness of time.

The New York City Government and the Los Angeles City Government have also successively issued public statements, especially regarding the safety of theaters, We will increase the police force in major theaters in the city to strictly check the moviegoers, so as to prevent any imitation of Santa Monica Commercial Plaza theaters. The shooting situation happened.

Regal Entertainment and AMC, the two largest theater companies in North America, issued a statement saying that they would prohibit moviegoers from entering theaters wearing costumes that would make other viewers feel uncomfortable, wearing masks, and carrying fake weapons.

The incident is rapidly fermenting, whether it is subjective or considerable, it is impossible for The Dark Knight Rises to escape from this incident.

Typically, Hollywood studios release box office receipts as soon as the weekend is over. However, this practice will be broken by the tragedy of the shooting.

Major Hollywood studios, including Warner Bros., Sony Columbia, Twentieth Century Fox, Walt Disney, Paramount Pictures and Universal Pictures, announced on the same day that they do not plan to release weekend box office receipts on Monday, which tracks the box office. Agency Rentak also doesn't plan to disclose the weekend box office.

Affected by the shooting incident, Warner Bros. canceled the French premiere of The Dark Knight Rises originally scheduled to be held in Paris.

Not only that, the incident also affected the stock market. Affected by the shooting, the stocks of the national exhibition industry all fell by different degrees that day. The stock price of IMAX company fell by nearly 6%, and the stock prices of AMG and Emperor Entertainment fell. More than nine percent.

Many countries have improved the security measures of movie theaters. In the United Kingdom and Germany, many theaters prohibit audiences from wearing costumes of characters in Cosplay films to enter the theater, and additional security guards are deployed in the theater lobby to monitor all movements in the lobby without blind spots to ensure The personal safety of the audience.

It takes a certain amount of time for any event to ferment. On Friday, the impact of the shooting is still expanding. The Dark Knight Rises has been affected to a certain extent, but the impact is not particularly large. Although the North American box office on the first day of release It did not reach the $100 million expected by Warner Bros., but it also got as much as $91.48 million!

Moreover, there have been many unfavorable remarks on The Dark Knight Rises on the Internet and the media, and there are also rumors that Warner Bros. will delete the shots and remarks involving guns in The Dark Knight Rises.

Actually, it's another Warner movie. It's an American gangster movie from the 1930s and 1940s. It's completely different from The Dark Knight Rises. It has nothing to do with it.

Jamie Johnson of Warner Bros. also stood up in time to refute the rumors, The Dark Knight Rises had other movie trailers before its screening. , The Dark Knight Rises has already been released in the United States, how to delete it? Superhero movies and gangster movies will have shooting scenes, but The Dark Knight Rises has nothing to do with violence.

Although Warner Bros. is trying its best to refute the rumors, they and Duke are very clear that many people in Hollywood are taking action. Starting from Saturday, there will inevitably be a big battle between several parties in the media. (to be continued ~^~)
