Chapter 911: The lightsaber designed after crashing the head

Movies are the seeds of dreams. Star Wars is the eternal dream home of countless people rooted in memory. Duke also believes that Star Wars: The Force Awakens will make the audience feel, We are home.

At the end of today's exhibition, Duke prepared a special surprise for the nearly 10,000 participants present - they will participate in the next Star Wars concert.

At the concert site, film composer John Williams will welcome every guest present through video, and the San Diego Symphony Orchestra will also play the classic Star Wars track created by John Williams, in March of the Empire and March of the Empire Accompanied by beautiful music such as Anakin's Song, the Star Wars crew will create an unforgettable night for Comic Con participants.

However, the second poster released by the crew on the second day caused an uproar.

This is a poster about the big villain Kylo Ren. In the poster, Karen Lun staggers in the dark forest while showing a red lightsaber representing the dark side of the Force, but this lightsaber is different from the traditional star The lightsaber is different. In addition to the red blade, there is also a red guard, which makes the lightsaber look a bit like a medieval cross sword.

It was this lightsaber that sparked controversy. The cross-flame shape of the lightsaber has been complained by countless fans on the Internet.

Should poke yourself?

If you want to commit suicide but are afraid that you won't be able to move, you can use this sword. If you swing it twice, you will die.

The wrist is tilted, and the hilt of the sword is inserted into the wrist.

I thought it was pretty cool at first, but after looking at it carefully, I also felt that this design is a bit hurtful... It should not be used in normal times, and it should be used in times of crisis...

This incident quickly attracted the attention of the media, and some reporters went out of their way to interview Duke.

My mailbox has also received a lot of letters of opposition. Some people refute the rationality of this lightsaber with very detailed pictures and texts, and some talk nonsense, and some think that this design will kill lightsaber users in turn.

For all kinds of heated discussions among netizens. Duke said that the matter is quite interesting, but he did not disclose the reason for this design to the media, only that it is a very long story, I actually had an argument with my team at the beginning, we went through a series of Discussions led to the final decision on the design.”

certainly. The design of this plan was carefully chosen by Duke, with the purpose of causing controversy.

A film without controversy is definitely not a qualified commercial film. As long as the scope and heat of controversy can be well controlled, it can bring not only visible negative effects, but also massive attention that cannot be seen.

Some people complained about this red cross flame lightsaber representing the dark side of the Force, but after Duke's interview was exposed. More movie fans stood up and expressed their support on the Internet.

Is it just me who thinks it's cool?

The director said that if you can't hurt people, you can't hurt people.

I think it's still pretty cool.

Since Duke let it appear, there must be his rationale. I believe there will be sufficient explanations in the movie!

Let's just talk about it now. When the feature film comes out, maybe it will be crazy cool and drag out the scumbag!

Star Wars: The Force Awakens isn't the only Star Wars movie being promoted at this year's San Diego Comic-Con. There is also the latest Star Trek, fans on both sides have always been at loggerheads, and now Star Wars: The Force Awakens has almost stolen all the limelight, which immediately caused dissatisfaction among die-hard fans of Star Trek.

They use Twitter and Instant Share as their fronts. Crazy rants about Duke and the red cross flame lightsaber.

There is a long story about the creation of this red cross flame lightsaber.

During the first week. Duke Rosenberg was driving too fast one day, hit a tree stump, smashed his head, and after he woke up from the hospital, he decided to put him in a coma. I made it out of what I got—a crossed lightsaber.

In the second week, when the screenwriter heard the news, he immediately found the common sense in various preschool textbooks and tried to explain to him that it was impossible, but it didn't work.

In the third week, the screenwriter resigned in anger; in the fourth week, no new screenwriter was found willing to write a story about the cross lightsaber; in the fifth week, such a screenwriter was still not found; to the appropriate editor.

In the tenth week, I finally found it, but the script was handed over to the props group. The props master looked through the elementary school textbooks and said nothing; from the eleventh week to the twenty-first week, the props group collectively went on strike to protest. Make a lightsaber designed by Duke Rosenberg.

On the twenty-second week, Duke Rosenberg made a handful himself and gave it to the actors. The first actor was cut to death.

From the 23rd week to the 43rd week, the red cross flame lightsaber designed by Duke Rosenberg cut to death and wounded 22 actors one after another..... It is still cutting the actors .”

In the end, when it comes to December, the version that will be released will only have one IMAX shot, because the actors in the other shots are constantly being replaced, so the shots won't work.

The dispute among Star Wars fans is only an internal conflict, but Star Wars fans choked, and immediately let the disputing Star Wars fans eliminate their differences, and began to unanimously communicate with each other. The two sides used the Internet as a carrier, and under the deliberate guidance of Duke's naval team Next, a battle of mutual spraying among fans began.

Both sides have a large number of fans, and this Internet war has almost triggered a big discussion in North America and even the Western world.

This also fully met Duke's expectations.

In the last two days of San Diego Comic Con, the voices of the debate gradually subsided, but the power of spoof appeared again.

Ever since the flaming cross lightsaber in Star Wars: The Force Awakens sparked crazy complaints from netizens, the spoofs can't stop at all. A bunch of bad guys have used their imaginations - how wonderful can a lightsaber be? ? We can all do it.

A video production team released their meticulously produced lightsaber battle video. There was a fantastic lightsaber battle. The flame cross lightsaber was the main weapon. The two sides of the battle were naturally Jedi knights and old enemies. Sith warrior.

The two parties came and went, having a great time fighting, but... the lightsabers they held in their hands were a bit strange.

cross? Lightning? These can no longer satisfy these lunatics, triangles, tomahawks, umbrellas, how strange they are! After the fight, the victory or defeat is completely unimportant...

Duke, Lucasfilm, and Warner Bros. can't stop promoting Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

There are also Star Wars fans discussing and analyzing the possible origin of Karen Lun's flaming cross lightsaber in a serious way.

As early as a few years ago in a small NDS game about The Clone Wars, the sisters of the night began to use lightsabers with cross-shaped gauntlets. It is true that there is a risk of accidentally injuring themselves, but this needs to be comprehensive consideration.

First of all, the original force lightsaber itself is a weapon that is easy to accidentally injure yourself. A person who decides to use this weapon will inevitably receive training to be proficient in using this weapon without hurting himself. This will also be his usual habit. Conversely speaking, people who are not particularly familiar with this sword, such as opponents who have seized your weapon, will not be able to use it handily.

Secondly, the legendary Force lightsaber also has different fighting styles. For example, Obi-Wan is a typical defensive style of play. The cross-shaped gauntlet may hinder the agility style that requires a lot of swinging lightsabers and changing hands, but whether it also Can strengthen certain strength-based styles? Whether the cross-shaped gauntlet is weak or not cannot be generalized, and the differences in fighting styles must be taken into consideration.

Also, on the basis of determining the style, whether the extra two side blades can protect the hand is not discussed. Even if it can't, it can also create an opportunity to catch the opponent by surprise during the battle. Assuming that the Jedi and Sith are already proficient in In the battle with a single-edged lightsaber, the extra two blades increase the factors that the opponent needs to consider in the battle, and transform the scene that both parties are familiar with into a scene that is familiar to both sides but unfamiliar to the other party, thus bringing advantages. In terms of this function, the legendary Double-edged swords, light whips, and adjustable-length combat swords all have similar ideas.

It has to be said that Star Wars is not only a belief, but has even developed into a specialized discipline.

Although this year's San Diego Comic-Con is mainly promoting Star Wars: The Force Awakens, there is also an exhibition hall related to Duke.

Not far from the Star Wars: The Force Awakens exhibition hall, Duke's team also planned a Night of Exchange with Duke Rosenberg.

This event mainly exhibits all the films that Duke has shot and produced since his filming, which also attracted the attention of many movie fans and comic fans.

For those who like movies, Duke Rosenberg is a magical existence!

This is the main slogan of the exhibition, and this slogan has also been recognized by most movie fans.

Just as the current San Diego Comic-Con was coming to an end, the organizers also gave Duke a big gift, awarding him an Icon Award.

When accepting the award and giving his acceptance speech, Duke faced ordinary movie fans in the exhibition hall, and what he said was far more sincere than the Oscar statuette.

I have entered a very strange world now, just like a tornado that has drawn me into the magical world of movies for more than 20 years. I want to make the most personal and magical commercial blockbuster,

Pointing to the thousands of regular moviegoers in the exhibit hall, he exclaimed, I'm very grateful to you for giving me this opportunity. But a phrase I've been talking to my friends lately is 'keep winning what you've got', Take the initiative to work hard and fight for it. So for those fans who have given me so much sincerity, inspiration and hard work, I will continue to give you more.

The applause that erupted at the scene far exceeded the Oscars.

Compared with those, Duke also cares more about the support of these ordinary movie fans. (to be continued ~^~)
