Chapter 441

"Before the release of an excellent science fiction film, it places the hope of all the members of a production group, especially the director."

Standing on the stage of Chandler hall in Los Angeles Music Center, Robert Downey Jr., as the prize winner, said in a serious way, "director, is very important to a science fiction film. In the 1960s, Hollywood had Stanley Kubrick's 2001 Space Odyssey, George Lucas's star wars in the 1970s, Robert zemikis's back to the future in the 1980s, and Steven Spielberg's Jurassic Park in the 1990s. "

Little Robert Downey's speaking speed is not fast this time. "Entering the new century, a large number of excellent science fiction films have emerged, especially in the past year."

He looked down at the card and said, "the best director nominees for this year's Saturn Award are Sam Remy for Spider Man 3, Michael Bay for transformers, Murphy Stanton for body of steel, Gore vipinski for pirates of the Caribbean 3: the end of the world, and Zach Schneider for three hundred warriors of Sparta."

These are all commercial films that sold well at the box office last year. The Saturn prize has nothing to do with professional reviews and media reputation. It pays more attention to the popularity of the film in the audience, and Whether the nominees will come to the scene to receive the prize.

If one of the nominators of the two films in similar situation is willing to come to the scene to receive the award, the organizer will give the award to him.

In fact, it's not just the Saturn awards. In North America, there is also such an unwritten but well-known rule for awards like the Teen Choice Awards and the MTV Movie Awards.

The biggest stars of tonight's Saturn Award ceremony are Robert Downey Jr. and Michael Douglas, and the biggest director is Murphy. Who will get this award? There's no suspense when you walk on the red carpet.

"Saturn won the best director award..." Little Robert Downey opened the envelope, looked at it, opened his mouth, and said with a smile, "Murphy Stanton! Congratulations, Murphy

He raised his hands and clapped hard on the stage, and the applause below also rang out at the same time.

Whether or not there are other reasons for winning the award, Murphy's taking away the best director with "body of steel" is worthy of most people's eyes.

"Body of steel" brings not only high box office, but also high reputation, as well as the depth and thickness that superhero movies in the past did not have.

"Murphy Stanton has proved to Hollywood that black style can also be sold worldwide."

Below the stage, a senior executive of Sony Columbia Pictures said to another person, "heavy themes can make superhero movies more attractive. Can commercial movies also consider such production, such as the new 007 series and the Spider Man series that we plan to restart?"

The man nodded. "I think it's feasible. If you look at Murphy Stanton's current style, you can see how many fans in North America and around the world like this style."

In a burst of applause, Murphy got up, walked to the stage, went on stage, hugged little Robert Downey, then took the trophy and stood in front of the microphone.

"I'm very happy to stand here. This award is the biggest affirmation of my work last year. Thank you!"

After the routine thanks, it's time for the advertisement, which is the reason why Murphy attended the award ceremony. "The support of fans is always the most proud thing for a director. You have recognized" body of steel ". I hope you can also recognize" shameless bastard "next!"

He lifted the trophy and left the last, "thank you."

Regardless of the reaction, Murphy turns around and walks to Robert Downey Jr. and under the leadership of the staff, walks out of the stage and goes backstage.

Except for some tacit things, he and Robert Downey Jr. attended the Saturn prize presentation ceremony for publicity.

Murphy is promoting the upcoming release of "shameless bastard", while Robert Downey Jr. is promoting the upcoming "Iron Man" disc and Blu ray DVD.

Just like the two of them, in most cases, the purpose of big name actors and directors attending this kind of award ceremony is not simple.

As they were not interested in the awards ceremony, Murphy and Robert Downey Jr. entered the backstage and were not in a hurry to go out. Moreover, the organizer arranged a routine interview activity to simply deal with the reporters. They stood in the interview area and chatted.

Murphy and Robert Downey didn't come to the awards ceremony at the same time. When they walked on the red carpet, they were arranged by the organizers, with many people separated.

"Body of steel is off the line from the final screening site of gibraltarian?"

Seeing Murphy nodding, Robert Downey asked, "how much is the global box office, more than $1.2 billion?"

Murphy shakes his head. How can there be a box office explosion in the last few markets where "body of steel" was released? The most populous countries have less than one million people?"You overestimate the volume of these small markets." He patted little Robert Downey on the arm. "The final global box office is far from $1.2 billion, only $1.132.47 billion."

"So..." "I'm still waiting for you to overtake that old bastard James Cameron," said little Robert Downey

Murphy shrugged. "I'm afraid he's the only one who can surpass James Cameron."

How many directors are willing to spend years researching and experimenting with new technologies for a film, like James Cameron? He can't do it himself.

After chatting a few words, they left the interview area to return to Chandler hall. As they turned into the next passage, Robert Downey, Jr. seemed to have missed a familiar figure, looked back and held Murphy in the quiet passage.

"What's the matter?" Murphy asked suspiciously.

"I wanted to wait for the award ceremony to end, but now I met..." Robert Downey, Jr. chin the interview area. "Michael Douglas is coming."

Murphy didn't say much, just pointed to Robert Downey Jr. at a surveillance camera in the distance.

"Don't worry." Robert Downey, Jr. took a deep breath. "It's been a few years. I'm not that impulsive."

Standing here, Murphy and little Robert Downey waited for a few minutes. The crisp sound of shoes landing sounded, and Michael Douglas in a gray suit turned from the entrance of the passage.

Michael Douglas obviously didn't expect that there was someone in the passage. He was stunned to see the faces of Murphy and Robert Downey Jr.

Little Robert Downey looks at Michael Douglas, and Michael Douglas looks at little Robert Downey.

Michael Douglas didn't even look at Murphy. He probably didn't want to provoke Murphy. He walked five feet in front of little Robert Downey and suddenly laughed.

"Donny, how many years have we not seen each other?" His smile seemed to have a different meaning. "The last time we talked face to face like this, or before you went to prison Oh, yeah. Why didn't you let me know when you got out of jail? Look at our two families... "

He suddenly accentuated the tone, "for the sake of deep friendship, I'll go to pick you up."

Robert Downey looked at Michael Douglas, but didn't immediately fight back.

"Oh, yes." Michael Douglas made no secret of his aversion to the surname of Downey. "Mr. Downey, I heard that you've succeeded in detoxification. It's certainly not true..."

"Of course, I'm not as serious as when your mother gave your father a green hat." Robert Downey, Jr. finally began to fight back. He spoke so fast that Michael Douglas could hear him clearly. "Maybe you don't understand the meaning of green hat. In Chinatown, it's used to describe a woman's cheating on her husband and other people..."

Without waiting for Michael Douglas to respond, Robert Downey, Jr. went on, "Mrs. Douglas was beautiful and charming at that time. She was the first-rate socialite in Hollywood."

What this word describes in Hollywood is very clear to everyone present.

"Your father paid a terrible price..." Michael Douglas squeezed a word out of his mouth, but before he finished, he was robbed by Robert Downey again.

He shrugged playfully. "I can tell you responsibly that old Robert Downey is still relishing Mrs. Douglas."

In the past, Murphy didn't know much about the grudge between the Douglas family and the Downey family. Now he gradually understands that it seems that old Robert Downey made a mistake first, and then incurred the Revenge of Kirk Douglas. The latter is probably not enough to solve the problem. He joined hands with Michael Douglas to lay out a plan to pit little Robert Downey.

Of course, it was just a guess. He didn't bother to know exactly what was going on.

Is it important to know the cause and effect? What if it's old Robert Downey who made the first mistake? Murphy always knew that his friend and brother was Robert Downey Jr., not Douglas.

In Hollywood, it's very simple to make a stand. It's intimacy.

However, looking at Robert Downey Jr. and Michael Douglas, Murphy has no intention to help from the beginning to the end. If Robert Downey Jr. can't win Michael Douglas in a war of words, all these years of practice will be in vain.

Moreover, compared with the mouth gun, Murphy always thinks that action has the real lethality.

As for Kirk Douglas, one of the two men's focuses, Murphy knows that he was the top power figure in Hollywood at that time. Let alone old Robert Downey, even Stanley Kubrick didn't dare to provoke him.

But that was not now.

(Donny and Douglas are all for the plot. Don't take it too seriously.) (to be continued). )
