"Welcome to the future world."
After passing the metal detector and entering the black tunnel, Gavin began to look at it with infinite curiosity. The whole tunnel was crowded with people; But what is strange is that there is no noise, there is no noise, only a gentle voice of discussion in the air, the faint restlessness makes the blood begin to boil quietly.
The whole black tunnel is divided into two parts. There are endless stars at the top of the tunnel and at the bottom of the tunnel. Thousands of broken stars are spread out like the vast Milky way, while the stars under the tunnel are flowing like a gurgling stream; On the left and right sides are the fluorescent green development, you can see a skeleton is crowded collision——
Obviously, these skeletons are themselves.
As a result, some playful audiences began to play, simulating the animation of skeleton fighting. There were a lot of audience gathered nearby, stopping and watching.
Gavin is a layman who doesn't know much about high-tech projects; But he knows that the technology of the black tunnel is not cheap, and it is absolutely not expensive, at least not as expensive as he thought. However, in the eyes of the audience, such an experience effect and such a visual effect burst out an incredible shock.
No contrast, no harm.
In contrast, paramount, next door, immediately fell. Although the theme of the carnival is really eye-catching, it coincides with the family style and children's orientation of "Madagascar 3"; However, the sense of innovation, topic effect and discussion value are not enough.
Warner Bros. black tunnel, completely sling paramount; Even last night's "Prometheus" became bad and tacky——
Last night, the premiere of 20th century fox could only be said to be formal and lack of highlights. They moved all the alien models in the "alien" series onto the red carpet, and set up a model of alien nest on the scene to provide visitors; In addition, with the appeal of Redley Scott, James Cameron and David Finch, who directed the second and third films of the series, both appeared.
Just 20 hours ago, the premiere of Prometheus was one of the most innovative, topical and hot topics in this year's summer program; But now, it's eclipsed by the premiere of "tomorrow's edge.". It's not just high technology, it's not just innovation, but the next scene:
At the end of the tunnel, Gavin noticed that the three streets from south to north, from north to south, and from west to East were all built into the same environment and result, but the details were different. On the left side of the tunnel, there was volcanic magma surging under the foot, and lightning and thunder above the head; On the other side of the tunnel, the roaring sea is under your feet, and the planetary explosion is above your head.
Finally, the three streets meet at the intersection, walk out of the exit, and then you can see the Hollywood Avenue in front of you, completely changed.
Restraining the impulse to go around the two channels, Gavin re focused on his own work, walked out of the channel, and saw a different world——
In the center is a red carpet with the width of a single lane; The streets on both sides are full of rubble, building debris and scrapped cars. They are all ruins of the war. Even the external walls of the buildings on both sides are hung with corresponding curtains to cover the buildings and completely create a battlefield appearance.
Armed soldiers were patrolling on the ruins, surrounded by the bustling crowd, but all the soldiers were serious, sharp eyed, and did not slack off at all. The atmosphere of war was gradually spread, so that the onlookers had to distance themselves a little.
At the end of the red carpet, a broken robot lies on the ground, as if it had just been destroyed.
Viewers who have seen the trailer of "tomorrow's edge" can immediately recognize that this is alpha in the movie, a powerful alien; Next to its body were debris from helicopters and tanks, and a group of soldiers were waiting. There were no railings beside the model, and the curious audience went straight in - the soldiers didn't stop them.
Now, everyone was very busy. They all looked at each other, and even boldly climbed up the model, got into alpha's head and watched all the details curiously.
What does that mean? This shows that the model is real shot. According to the situation in the film, it has made a real alpha with a lot of money. It can stand the test.
This is the battlefield of "tomorrow's edge", the real battlefield, a scene of the end of the world in the future, after a bloody battle. So the soldiers were on patrol all the time; Therefore, the black tunnel is the time and space tunnel; Therefore, the chaotic premiere scene, which seems to be out of order, unexpectedly fits the theme.
Not only the three black tunnels, but also all the soldiers are extras, showing enough dedication to maintain the apocalyptic state in the background of the story "tomorrow's edge", which also makes the atmosphere more realistic.
Warner Brothers really moved the future battlefield to Hollywood Avenue.
In Hollywood, everyone knows that Warner Bros. is a big spender, with more than 150 million dollars of investment works, and Warner Bros. is the largest in every year; Moreover, Warner Bros. also invests in those low-cost comedies and low-cost horror works invested by universal pictures, but the proportion is very small. Their market strategy is to get what they pay for, and to complete the market with super blockbusters.
In the first decade of the 21st century, Warner Bros. has achieved brilliant success and is worthy of being the biggest Hollywood tycoon.
However, after entering the second decade, after the completion of the "Harry Potter" and "Batman prequel" series and the acquisition of marvel, Pixar and Lucas films by Disney, Disney has become a top player to compete with Warner. Next, the competition between the two companies will become the main theme.
However, before today, Gavin only had a concept, and never had a real feeling. Until now.
This premiere will cost at least 20 million dollars, or even more. Gavin is just a layman, judging according to his own experience; But he can be sure that Warner Bros. has no intention of being soft handed——
Everyone thinks that "tomorrow's edge" is a work that is despised, and its propaganda weight is always inferior to "Batman Prequel: the rise of the Dark Knight"; But also hit into the super schedule, almost no difference with the suicide road. Now it seems that such an idea can be overturned.
Gavin stood on the red carpet, some at a loss, such experience is really rare, but only to stop a soldier, "excuse me, where is the reporter's interview area?" Gavin felt a little stupid when he asked this question on the battlefield.
"You can stay anywhere you like." The soldier replied stiffly, "however, when the soldiers are ready to go on the stage, it is suggested that everyone leave the middle passage. If they are journalists, there is a temporary refuge area in front of them, where they can gather."
Obviously, it was a full open premiere, with no separation between the red carpet and the audience. Bold, that's really bold. Although it is said that pulling up a barrier can not stop the enthusiastic audience at all, at least it draws a boundary. Now, there is no such boundary, which truly interprets the chaos of the end of the world to the extreme.
However, Gavin believes that if the audience really gets out of control, these soldiers must have the task of maintaining order. Nevertheless, Warner Bros. marketing strategy is admirable.
Looking up over the baffle in front of you, you can see the toothless inflatable model sitting on the top of the high building at the end of the street. Somehow, Gavin felt full of joy.
"Hey Gavin!" When he arrived at the reporter gathering area, his companions said hello one after another. This familiar reporter is Eli walach, a reporter of the Seattle Post, and also a loyal supporter of Langley. "I knew that you must have come here."
Tonight, the two premieres on Hollywood Avenue will be held at the same time, which means that every media, every journalist and every actor must choose. Because they can not appear in two occasions at the same time, they can only choose one.
In terms of contacts alone, "Madagascar 3" is on the edge of tomorrow.
In addition to Ben Stiller, Chris Locke, David Schwimmer, Jessica chastan and others, there is also will Smith's wife Jada Pinkett Smith, as well as a group of big men in DreamWorks. The red carpet is definitely full of stars.
Although Frank Marshall, the producer of "tomorrow's edge", is a big player in the industry, he has intimate relations with David Finch, Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorsese and others; But under the super schedule, "Prometheus" and "Madagascar 3" are definitely stronger rivals.
As you can imagine, tonight's premiere will be extremely difficult for "tomorrow's edge".
Gavin chose "tomorrow's edge", Eli also chose "tomorrow's edge".
Gavin chuckled. "I never thought about other options. To be honest, I passed by the next door just now, and their battle was very noisy, but... "The following words didn't go on. Gavin just stretched out his right hand and shook it gently from side to side, clearly expressing his own meaning: not so good.
Then Gavin looked up and looked around to see how his peers were present. It is certain that the top media will attend both premieres. The question is, which premiere will the ace reporter go to?
Bradley Adams, the ace of the New York Times, Daisy Lucas, the ace of vanity fair, Ned Mulan, the ace of Empire... With a little glance, Gavin showed a big smile, "God, all that should come; It seems that those who shouldn't have come also come. What's the matter? "
Is tomorrow's edge going to crush Madagascar 3?
