Acting King's Daily [Comprehensive British and American]

Cameron sat on the side and looked at the caller ID blankly, as if he didn't intend to answer it, and he didn't know who was waiting for someone to apologize.

After the phone rang five times persistently, Cameron picked it up slowly, and when it came up, it was mocking: "Look who is calling-"

It's a pity that Gu Qing is not on the other side, "Mr. Cameron, hello, I'm David."

Cameron: "..."

I said 'it seems', and the voice that came over the next moment was Gu Qing's own: "So before making a mockery, you have to make sure that the other person is really the one you want to make a mockery of, otherwise it will be embarrassing, won't it? ?”

Cameron immediately realized what happened just now, he couldn't bear it and yelled at Gu Qing skillfully: "Eric Xavier!!"

——Card style daily roar is finally online√

After the yelling, Cameron was still not angry: "Did you come here specifically to scold me, you bastard?"

Gu Qing is already thinking about making a collection of Cameron yelling at him, but before that, let's get down to business: "No, I'm notifying you that there is a bill worth 80 US dollars."

Cameron continued to shout: "What nonsense are you talking about?"

Gu Qing started a serious nonsense mode: "Remember the model man that you burned? Its cost was 80 US dollars. No, because the patent rights used on it have not been disclosed, that is, there is no development, so it’s worth even more. Let me do the math again, the artificial skin patent is estimated at $26 billion—”

Cameron just hung up the call when there was such a disagreement, but unfortunately for Gu Qing, a technical geek, such a manual cut-off of the call was of no use, and his voice still came out: "I know you I hung up on me just now, and now, lest you feel uncomfortable, I think you'd better pick up the receiver and put it to your ear, James."

Cameron: "..."

The big director regrets it now, why was he so angry at that time and burned that model, if he didn't burn it, he can take it out now to "see things and think about people"!

Fortunately, Gu Qing didn't continue to irritate people anymore. He sincerely expressed his miss for Cameron, and solemnly apologized for what he had caused the people around him to panic. He also promised that if there is a next time If possible, he will inform in advance.

What Cameron wanted was this kind of apology, so even though Gu Qing's words had the meaning of making people jump, Cameron's attitude softened.However, we can’t expect Cameron to express it directly. It’s good that he didn’t continue to sneer. After Gu Qing apologized, he skipped to the upcoming Academy Award ceremony without any connection: “You What do you mean by the statement in your EX Times?"

"It means good gathering and good separation."

To Gu Qing's usual Gu Qing's answer, Cameron gave a single tone: "Ha!"

Gu Qing didn't care about this, and added: "Didn't I tell you before that I might not act in movies again? I thought about it, except for the sequels of "The Matrix" in the next few years. I'm not going to take on filming anymore, but I want to switch careers to be a director, and I already have a plan for the direction of my first film."

The first part of "The Matrix" will be released this summer, and the director Wachowski brothers' idea for "The Matrix" was to make a trilogy.Originally, they wanted to adopt a set shooting method for these two films, but considering that it was impossible for Gu Qing to spare eight months or even a year at once, they had to take a step back and rewrite the scripts of the second and third films. Filling and polishing, even so the second film will have to wait until next year.

"Continue." Cameron became serious. He didn't think there was any problem with Gu Qing changing his career as a director. It probably had something to do with the impression that he could do everything well and was very talented.What Cameron guessed was what direction Gu Qing would make his first film. After all, Gu Qing is not like most Hollywood directors who want to make their debut. Envy.

When Cameron was about to recall his bad experience of making his first movie, Gu Qing gave the answer so calmly: "Superhero movies."

Cameron repeated in a strange tone: "You mean a superhero movie?"

"Yeah. What's the matter?"

What else could be the matter? This answer completely exceeded Cameron's expectations.He changed the microphone in his hand and casually glanced at the newspaper on the table. Then he remembered that at the end of last year, their company, the film company called ET, said that they were very interested in the superhero movie market. Now it seems that Are you kidding me?Cameron couldn't figure it out, so he asked Gu Qing directly: "Which superhero do you want to shoot?" Don't accidentally make a popcorn movie with no depth.

The director didn't say these words, he had better not hit Gu Qing's self-confidence for the time being.

"Iron Man." Gu Qing said something astonishing again, and he also said: "In this way, it can also be said to be a celebrity biography movie."

Cameron's tone became even weirder this time: "You want to shoot Tony Stark? Don't tell me you plan to direct and act on your own."

"It's not suitable, right? I mean if I'm allowed to play Tony, so my ideal solution now is to let Tony play himself." Gu Qing didn't take the debut as a very important thing. , and the idea of ​​letting celebrities act in their true colors in this celebrity biographical film is too "fashionable", and Cameron, a rookie director who has been underestimated everywhere, and Cameron, who has gone through hardships to get his status now, cannot accept it.This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that no matter what Cameron thinks about this combination, it is most suitable to use a word that has been widely circulated to describe it: #贵环真基#.

Having said that, why does the big director still have the feeling of staying out of the crowd? Doesn't this "real base in the expensive circle" accident include the accident that he became a blue face and bought the parent company of the "National Enquirer" in anger?So, don't laugh at a hundred steps at fifty steps.

Furthermore, Gu Qing said that he will be the director to shoot "Iron Man", so far it seems that the arrangement will be in the second half of this year, and this is still under the condition that everything is going well, who knows what ghosts and monsters will appear in the middle.

……

The 71st Oscar Awards Ceremony, no matter how you look at it, is much eclipsed than the previous one.Last time, there were "Titanic", "Gait Shot", "LA Confidential", "Good Will Hunting", "As Good as It Gets", etc. Although "Titanic" dominated both in terms of nominations and final awards Status, but the "attendees" still have the "iron triangle" of big ships. Just looking at their faces makes the boring and dogmatic Oscars ceremony a lot of glory. It is one of the few places where many people watch the awards ceremony Reason, I believe this has also made a lot of contributions to the ratings.

Relying on good looks to boost ratings has long been verified, okay?For details, you can refer to the "Lord of the Rings"-themed celebration party, and the final ratings calculated by NBC. I don't know how many TV stations that didn't grab the live broadcast rights envied and hated it.If there is no comparison between the two, then the Academy Awards ceremony can also look at the Golden Globe Awards ceremony in recent years. The ratings in the past few years obviously don’t think so, that is, last year’s Oscar Awards Ceremony ushered in the highest ratings in history because of “Titanic” and “Gait Shot”, which was still weak compared with the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony of the same year one chip.

But this year, the person who has both good looks and high topicality, and is still highly concerned, will not come. Besides, "The Truman Show" was discriminated against by the academy, which obviously sent a signal: Xiao Jinren is also the same this year. There is no Eric Xavier, so there is no reason to watch such an awards ceremony.

Let’s continue to talk about another reason why this year’s Oscars are eclipsed. If last year’s awards are still thrilling before they are finally awarded, then this year’s awards basically have no suspense in the eyes of the public— —The best picture award will go to "Saving Private Ryan"; Steven Spielberg will also win another best director award for this film; It should have won the Best Original Screenplay Award; and for the Best Actress Award, the film critics are most optimistic about Cate Blanchett, the winner of the Golden Globe Award for Best Actress in a Drama Series. The performance of the Australian actress, but also looking forward to her performance in "Lord of the Rings" and so on.

Therefore, when the general results of the awards are predicted, there is no need to spend a few more hours on this boring live broadcast of the awards ceremony.

Under such circumstances, when the 71st Academy Awards Ceremony ends and all the awards have been announced, when the public suddenly finds that this is too different from what was predicted, one can imagine how they will feel like a Japanese dog .

Take a look, the results of the final selection by the academy judges:

Best Picture Award, "Shakespeare in Love";

Best Actress, Gwyneth Paltrow, Shakespeare in Love;

The best original screenplay award, "Shakespeare in Love"... This film received 13 nominations and 7 awards, but it is the biggest "winner" of this year's Academy Awards.

Compared with "Shakespeare in Love", "Saving Private Ryan", which is better both in terms of word of mouth and box office, only won one heavyweight best director award, and the other four awards were only technical. awards.But if it is more miserable, "The Truman Show", which also surpassed "Shakespeare in Love" in terms of word-of-mouth and box office this year, will undoubtedly come out on top. .

--In the end what happened?
