Chapter 453: 454

Between Thanksgiving and Christmas, "farewell to the piano", produced by gaomen pictures, opened on December 6 with 21 screens in Los Angeles, New York, Chicago and other major North American cities.

The film, which won the Golden Lion Award at the Venice Film Festival in September, has been highly praised by the media since it was released. The comprehensive score of the film is as high as 9.2, making it another excellent work with high scores next to toy story at the end of the year.

Roger Albert, a well-known American film critic, described the film as "the most extraordinary and unforgettable film I've ever seen.".

In the first week's screening, "farewell to the piano" earned US $1.55 million in seven days, with an average of US $73000.

Another prize winning movie released at the same time as farewell to the piano, Grand Canyon, is produced by Fox pictures and directed by Lawrence Kasdan, a well-known Hollywood screenwriter and director. It tells the story of racial conflict caused by a black man's straying into a white community.

"Grand Canyon" has only two smaller screen spots, which is entirely for the nomination of the award season. In the first week, it won $190000 at the box office with its two screens.

However, as an award-winning film, "Grand Canyon" has only an average film review reputation, with a comprehensive score of 7.6 points. Compared with 9.2 points of "farewell to the piano", it is obviously difficult to make a difference in the award season.

December 13, Friday.

Although in theory, this week is still the intermission of the two schedules, according to the scale of the films, the Christmas file is opened ahead of time.

Because this week, Steven Spielberg's "Captain Hawk" was released, along with Paramount Pictures's "assassinating Kennedy.".

Columbia Pictures has great expectations for captain hawk, and the final production budget of the film has reached 70 million US dollars, with a screen size of 2197.

However, with the beginning of the film, "Captain Hawk" reputation is directly destroyed, the media rating all the way down to 2.8 points.

"Variety" magazine criticized "Captain Hawk" for being "disorderly and unrestrained." Newsweek also made a scathing comment that watching "Captain Hawk" was like "watching an 80000 pound dwarf dancing.".

After three days, Captain hawk's first weekend box office was only $13.52 million, far less than Columbia Pictures expected.

In the original time and space, the North American box office of "Captain Hawk" finally exceeded 100 million US dollars. Relying on the global total box office of more than 200 million US dollars and subsequent revenue, the film barely recovered the cost for Columbia Pictures.

However, this time, this bad reputation "blockbuster" will not have such good luck.

Because the following week, another high-profile DC movie, the universe's new movie "flash man", will be released soon.

In the original time and space, the assassination of Kennedy, which was painted at the same time as captain hawk, should have been produced by Warner. However, Warner gave up the project at the beginning because most of Warner's attention at the end of this year was focused on the flash.

Compared with "Captain Hawk", the situation of "assassinating Kennedy" is much better. This slightly different historical drama won an excellent media rating of 8.3 points after it was painted.

However, in terms of box office, the opening screen size of "assassinating Kennedy" was 1164, and the box office in the three days of the first weekend finally reached $5.22 million, which was not satisfactory.

You know, because of the success of Oliver Stone's previous films and the joining of Kevin Costner in this film, the production budget of "assassinating Kennedy" is as high as $40 million. Although it's not up to the standard of Captain hawk, with a budget of 40 million US dollars, this era is definitely a big production.

The box office revenue of $5.22 million in the three days of the first weekend, compared with the production budget of $40 million and the publicity expenditure of about $20 million, if the film can't go out of an excellent long-term, paramount may be fired again.

On the original time line, the box office of "assassinating Kennedy" was very good, and it became one of the big winners of the 1992 Oscar.

But this time, no one is sure.

It's also because of the upcoming "flash" on December 20.

Such an eye-catching blockbuster stands in front of us. Other films in the same period have a tragic feeling.

The first two works of DC movie universe are really too strong.

What's more, according to Warner Bros. sources, "flash" has a stunning effect.

After the last two months of intensive carpet publicity, the Los Angeles Premiere of flash was held on December 18.

Because of his confidence in the film, Warner raised the premiere ceremony to the same standard as the summer film Batman: The Dark Knight, and still chose to hold it in the holy citizen Hall of Los Angeles, which can accommodate 2000 people.

Domay point manor.

Around five o'clock in the afternoon, Janet finally took care of her make-up and walked downstairs with AB and her skirt.Simon, who is waiting in the living room downstairs, looks around on the sofa. The woman is wearing a set of wine red silk dress that she has always liked, with black high heels, shaggy blonde hair, and the skin on her shoulders. Because of her superior care during pregnancy, her hair looks white and moist, which makes people feel an impulse to bite.

Yingying floats to Simon. Janet bends down beside the sofa and says with a smile, "little boy, do you want a bite?"

This kind of tone, just like at the beginning.

Simon smiles, looks up, kisses Janet, and says, "let's go."

"Well, I'll say goodbye to Moore first."

Janet goes to the living room, next to the crib with French windows. Deborah, the d-girl, is watching over some little guy who is sleeping on the crib.

Compared with the inevitable ugly appearance when he was just born, in two weeks, the little guy has recovered the delicate appearance that a baby should have, and the shadow of Simon and Janet can be seen between his eyebrows.

Together in the crib looked at the child for a moment, and told the abd three girls, Simon and Janet just drove to the city.

In the evening, Los Angeles was a bit congested. It was not until 5:40 that Simon and Simon arrived outside the sacred citizen hall in the center of the city.

The premiere starts at six o'clock, an hour before it is red carpet time. Although it is not as big as the Oscar, the lively battle here is no less than the Oscar ceremony.

Simon and his wife had just got off at the entrance of the red carpet when they heard cheers of surprise.

Simon, with a smile on his face, nodded a little to the media and fans on both sides, and walked into the auditorium with Janet's feet.

After taking a picture in front of the photo wall, Warner Bros. CEO Terry Semel has already met him.

Everyone greets to enter the backstage of the auditorium, where the stars are shining.

Clint Eastwood, Barbara Streisand, Cher, Don Johnson, Melanie Griffith and many other superstars are here today.

Of course, Adam Baldwin, Valerie Gallino, Tommy Lee Jones, Anthony Hopkins and other leading creators of Batman Series will not be absent, and magic woman's famik Jason, Linda Hamilton and Joanna Cassidy are all here today.

In contrast, the director of flash, George costatus, the hero, Jason, and the heroine, Robin white, are not very prominent among the celebrities.

Of course, considering the popularity of Adam Baldwin and Valerie Gallino before the Batman Series, the "humble" ideas of the creators will be completely changed in the next few weeks.

It was a simple greeting. As six o'clock approached, people began to enter the auditorium.

When everyone is seated and the host makes a speech, the show begins.

The story of the first flash is about the origin of the superhero.

Simon doesn't like the old narrative mode that he started from childhood. Therefore, in the original Batman: the moment of war, Bruce Wayne became a superhero to start the story, which has proved to be very successful.

It is also not intended to cover Diana Prince's childhood.

However, the story of flash still has to go back to some "rules".

Similar to Bruce Wayne's parents being killed in an alley, the childhood shadow of flash man Barry Allen witnessing his mother being killed as a child is also a topic that the superhero can't get around.

However, out of his instinctive resistance to childhood narration, Simon still makes Barry Allen's childhood experience into an opening story wedge.

By the start of the show, Barry Allen is an adult.

The story continues most of the basic settings of the cartoon. As an adult, Barry Allen is an expert in physical evidence technology at the central city police department.

Of course, in order to adapt to changes in the film version is essential.

The general plot of this origin story is about Barry Allen, a police forensic expert, who accidentally encounters a laboratory accident in a cooperation with Professor Albert Swann, in which Barry Allen gains super speed ability.

However, Professor Swann was paralyzed by the accident.

Barry Allen told Professor Swann about his super power, trying to find out the reason, and at the same time, he had to deal with the "climate Wizard" who also got super power because of this accident.

As the plot progresses, Allen successfully defeats and catches the "climate Wizard", only to discover that he has fallen into another conspiracy unconsciously.

It turned out that Professor swan, who was paralyzed on the surface, had also acquired super speed ability.

However, after the laboratory accident, the accusations and difficulties made by various parties to Professor Swann made the super power man have an antisocial mind.To sum up, there are three lines in the origin story.

The first is Barry Allen's life experience and childhood, including his mother's murder and his father still in prison. This part of the plot also constitutes most of the Daily Narrative in the film.

The second is Barry Allen's awakening as a superhero of the flash, which was achieved in the confrontation with the climate wizard.

Third, it's Barry Allen's fight against his old enemy, Professor Albert swan.

In fact, the first and third story lines are closely related. Professor Swann is the "murderer" who killed Barry Allen's mother. In a duel with Allen, this reverse lightning unexpectedly went back to the past, which created Allen's childhood tragedy.

For the audience in the holy citizen hall, the three interwoven story lines are not complicated at all and are very clear.

However, most people's attention is attracted by the special effects of the flash.

In the Superman series, which was launched in 1978, Clark Kent's "special effects" of flying around the earth and reversing time are simply too crude to be seen.

However, with the technical support of daenerys special effects, the film not only perfectly shows Barry Allen's high-speed motion scenes, but also makes slow motion scenes similar to the original X-Men series.

Of course, the specific effect is not up to the level of 20 years later. However, in the eyes of the audience of this era, the degree of astonishment is no less than the visual impact brought by the previous two Batman Series.

When the final battle on the big screen is over, the subtitles rise. Suddenly, thousands of audiences in the holy citizen hall realize that the two-hour screening is over.

Simon always thinks that the most important criterion to evaluate a film is whether the audience realizes the passage of time in the process of watching.

If a movie makes the audience unconsciously see the beginning and end, and even forget the coke popcorn in hand, then the project is difficult to fail.

On the contrary, if a film always lets the audience play, and other ideas pop up in the mind, or even give up watching, then the box office prospect of the film can be seen.

This "flash" may not be as high as the two "Batman", but in terms of plot, the fluency of one go is absolutely better than the other. In addition, the IP of "flash man" is no less well-known than superman and Batman, as well as the high-speed special effects of the film. Basically, there is no possibility of failure.

It's just a question of how high the box office of the film will eventually reach.

At the end of the subtitle, it's the usual story.

This time of the egg, it is Valerie Gallino who plays the Catwoman.

The female superhero, who is also good and evil, looks dusty on the big screen. It seems that she has also experienced combat, and the uniform of Catwoman is damaged.

In Barry Allen's surprised and puzzled eyes, Catwoman didn't talk too much nonsense and said, "Hey, work, I know you are special, so now some guys need your help."

At the end of the speech, the big screen is completely dark.

For comic fans, just this simple interaction is exciting enough.

Of course, flash and cat girl in the cartoon have encountered each other, but on the big screen, the cat girl played by Valerie Gallino has become the goddess of DC. The encounter between this female superhero and flash Barry Allen, as well as the subsequent progress of the story, is too exciting.

Some core comic fans are even combing the other information revealed in this short period of egg.

Why did the cat girl come to the central city?

What kind of battle did she go through?

How does Barry Allen respond to the appearance of cat girl?

Wait, wait, wait.

Moreover, even those who don't know much about the original comic plot, having seen the first two Batman movies, are inevitably full of expectations for the combination of DC superheroes.
