~： Three hundred and eighty-two - twisted orientation

The hustle and bustle of Thursday night passed, as if it did not affect the life of Bruce Rosenblum at all. Although the first big production of the summer was released last night, he, as the director of the distribution department of Warner Bros., did not change the law of his life. .

Unlike the director of distribution at Universal Pictures, who also had films released at the same time, he didn't work overtime at all last night to wait for box office and statistical reports.

Part of the reason is the confidence in the film, and the bigger reason is that Warner Bros. has never had high expectations for "The Matrix", which has become a tacit understanding within the company since the director of the film identified Zack Snyder. .

Although this is still a project initiated by Wayne, the quality of the finished film is indeed somewhat unexpected, but this does not disrupt the publicity strategy that Warner Bros. has long formulated.

The head project of their summer program this year is "Tornado" produced by Steven Spielberg and directed by Jane de Bont. Warner Bros. has very high expectations for this film, whether it is the media After the preview meeting or the movie fans' preview meeting, professional reputation and movie fans' word-of-mouth have always remained high.

In addition to this "Tornado", which will be released two weeks later, the other key project is "The Departed" directed by Wayne himself.

Don't watch "The Departed" call out the Oscar early, as if it is an award-winning literary film, but they know that Wayne's films have never lacked stories and gimmicks, plus those loyal fan groups are enough to guarantee This film will not be cold in the theater market.

Then came Joe Schumacher's Scimitar Kill, and finally Zach Snyder's The Matrix.

Mainly because of the investment in "The Matrix", Warner Bros. only accounted for half, and this half was solved through financing. The company's expectation for the film, a $30 million opening weekend, would guarantee Warner Bros. a profit.

This is both an original work and an R-rated film directed by a novice. If the producer is not named Wayne Greenberg, I am afraid that even 30 million Warner Bros. would not dare to expect.

"Dad, your newspaper."

Bruce Rosenblum walked into the dining room, and as soon as he sat down at the table, his daughter Gillian Rosenblum came up and put a few newspapers in front of him.

This move immediately aroused his vigilance. No one knew better than him what the character of his lawless daughter was. This child was just before the end of the rebellious period, and he was definitely not so considerate at ordinary times.

Picking up the sandwich on the plate with one hand and delivering it to his mouth, he picked up the newspaper with the other and put it in front of him, but Bruce Rosenblum's eyes turned to his daughter, who was sitting obediently across from him. "Come on, what do you want? Or did you get into trouble at school?"

"Daddy!"

The well-behaved state didn't last long, and the girl returned to her original appearance when she heard his words. "Neither, Dad, can you get me some tickets for The Matrix? I promised Lucy and the others to see the movie."

"Don't even think about it!"

Although his daughter's request was simple to him, he refused without hesitation. Anyway, "The Matrix" is also an R-rated film. It doesn't matter if my daughter has a preview in the company, but taking a large group of underage classmates to watch it is another concept!

"What if I let Mom go with us?"

"What?" Bruce Rosenblum looked at his wife and shrugged. It was obvious that the mother and daughter had reached some kind of agreement. "Okay, you won, movie tickets are nothing, but don't make trouble."

"Yes!"

Gillian waved her fist excitedly. "I told Lucy and them how cool it was and they never believed it. I bet they'd be stunned when they saw it."

Just as he was talking, the phone rang, Bruce Rosenblum pointed at the phone, the girl put down the sandwich in her hand, and trot over to pick it up.

"Hello, this is Rosenblum's house..."

It didn't take long, and the phone was hung up in less than a minute. The girl went back to the dining table, took a big bite of the unfinished sandwich, and said to her father, "It's your secretary, York, who asked me to tell you. , "The Matrix"'s early box office is about 5.75 million US dollars. Dad, isn't this a good result?"

"Well, it's already been a very good performance."

When the morning light came into the dining room, Bruce Rosenblum laughed when he heard it, and took a sip of milk. "This number, put it on an R-rated film, can definitely be said to be very high. It seems that Zach Snyder did not live up to Wayne this time."

Having eaten breakfast made by his wife himself, he realized that it was still early. He picked up the newspaper he had not had time to read and sat on the sofa in the living room, wanting to see the media's comments on the two films first.

'Greenberg's sci-fi masterpiece, a must-see choice in summer!

Since the birth of the art form of film, there have been many excellent science fiction films for mankind, but The Matrix is ​​definitely one of the masterpieces, because it directly reveals the essence of science fiction - "the whole process of human cognitive revolution", which is the Full story. To understand the Matrix is ​​to understand the paradigm of the evolution of human thinking over the past 3,700 years. In fact, the answer lies in the title of the film:

Matrix, the entire relational and cognitive structure of human beings, collectively referred to as the matrix...' - Todd McCarthy

The first thing I saw was the film critic column. This well-known film critic in Los Angeles praised the film without hesitation, and finally called on more fans to watch it in person.

This is not surprising to him at all. The other party has been receiving public relations from Warner Bros. for a long time, and it is basically impossible to speak ill of Warner Bros. Moreover, Todd McCarthy has always had a good relationship with Wayne.

‘Last night at seven o’clock, our reporter once again interviewed Hollywood director Wayne Greenberg at the premiere of The Matrix. When asked what he thought of "The Hulk" coming out this weekend, director Greenberg said it was a complete knockoff. He is not optimistic about the box office prospects of "Hulk", thinking that this film is just a parody of "Batman: Hour of War", and it is also a parody of an unknown person, and it is not worth the fans to waste time watching...'

--- "Los Angeles Times"

Seeing this, he nodded. The words that Wayne himself said had a huge influence on a large number of movie fans. The signboard that he has established himself can ensure that many ordinary audiences will give more consideration when making movie viewing choices. .

The smile on his face suddenly disappeared as he flipped through the Los Angeles Times to look at the Hollywood Daily Entertainment in the back.

"The Matrix" actor Brandon Lee, a sexual twister!

According to our reporter's investigation, as early as October 1992 when "Joker" was just beginning preparations, Brandon Lee participated in the audition for Arthur the Clown. After the audition failed, he joined Wayne Greenberg's behind-the-scenes team as a stunt performer. .

He is not only a stunt double in the movie "Joker", but also participated in the action direction of "Batman: Time for War". He is also famous for his role as the actor in "The Clown Returns". This is a newcomer to Hollywood. Said, obviously some luck, right? !

Our reporter recently interviewed the temporary workers of the "Joker" crew. According to these temporary workers, the director Wayne Greenberg has always taken great care of Brandon Lee in the crew. En-Greenberg's regular staff for lunch.

In addition, our reporter also interviewed BrandonLee's ex-boyfriend! Yes, it's a boyfriend! He is a true Guy! From this point of view, Brandon Lee's career as an actor can go so smoothly, does it mean that he has paid some big shots?

Think about it, he was a stunt double in "Joker" first, and then immediately starred in "Joker's Soul", participated in the action guidance of "Batman: Time for War", and now is the absolute star of "The Matrix". Yi's actor, luck is too...'

"Snapped!"

Bruce Rosenblum slapped the newspaper on the coffee table, causing a buzz, and his wife and daughter, who were still eating, looked at him together.

"I'm fine, but something unexpected happened. I'll go to the company first."

After saying hello to his wife, he grabbed the newspaper on the coffee table, folded it in half and put it in his coat pocket, went to the garage, and drove straight to Burbank, the media capital.

Competition in Hollywood has always been full of surprises. He knows very well what this long report means. Now Wayne is speculated by fans that the discussion is a small issue. Anyway, there have always been gossip tabloids. His affair is not so easy for fans to believe.

Mainly BrandonLee! He is the hero of the film, and any scandal will affect the box office of the film. The headache is that the so-called BrandonLee ex-boyfriend!

After arriving at the Warner Bros. Building, Bruce Rosenblum didn't go back to his office, went straight to the seventh floor, and knocked on the door of the CEO's office.

"Bruce, ha, it looks like you saw that report too!"

As soon as he entered the door, he heard a joke. Only then did he realize that it wasn't just Jeff Robinoff sitting in the lounge area, but Wayne and the personal assistant who was always behind him.

"It doesn't seem like I saw it myself, did I?" Bruce Rosenblum shrugged, walked to the lounge and sat down. "The male protagonist is suspected of being gay... I'm afraid this thing will affect many fans! I didn't expect Universal Pictures to do this."

Wayne nodded in agreement. It was the mid-to-late 1990s, but not a dozen or 20 years later. Feminism has only just begun to take shape in society. Various movements have not yet begun, and homosexuality is not compromised. Unbuttoned scandal.

The homosexual group is now one of the most marginalized people in society. Almost no one dares to publicly announce that they are out of the closet, otherwise they will be surrounded by strange eyes from the whole society, not to mention a small actor, even inside the circle. The clear DreamWorks boss David Geffen also needs to cover up his orientation.
