Chapter 812： The dead will have privileges

For Hugh Jackman, who has hosted three Tony awards ceremonies, hosting the Oscars is not a big challenge. The college chose him as the host instead of the comedy star or talk show host in the past. It is naturally a fancy. The powerful appeal of Wolverine itself.

Today, even the most stubborn and conservative members of the academy have to admit that the Oscar ratings have reached the point where they have to be rescued.

Think about the situation when "Titanic" swept the Oscars. The average audience of 59.75 million set an Oscar record; when Ryan won the Oscar for best actor with "Gladiator", he had a history of 78.97 million. The peak audience ratings; when the eleven nominations of "The Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King" won eleven gold medals, the average ratings were the highest since the new century.

These all reflect from the side that the solution to the ratings problem is actually very simple and straightforward, but it is very difficult for conservative colleges to make this choice.

Therefore, Oscar can only start from other aspects, such as unexpected and so on.

Different from previous announcements in batches, this year’s Oscars firmly "tighten" the list of award-giving guests, and will not disclose a name until the last minute. This is mainly reflected in several heavyweight awards, especially the award ceremony. Significant changes have occurred.

This change is evident in the first best supporting actress awarded.

The award-giving guests are no longer the traditional winners of the previous best supporting actor, but Angelica Houston, Ubi Gordon Fort and Scarlett Johansson and other five female celebrities who have won the best supporting actress awards in the past. When they walked out from the bottom of the big screen displaying their heads, the organizing committee did a good job of keeping secrets in advance, and it did bring some surprises.

Of course, this is the surprise. The rest is to talk about crosswords, introduce the nomination list, and award the best supporting actress. The winners announce their feelings about the award...

The star Penelope Cruz from Spain won the best supporting actress with "Midnight Barcelona".

"It's not Amy Adams."

Seeing the other person walking towards the backstage, Nicole whispered, "Is this an unpopularity?"

"It seems that this award is going to take the international route." Ryan squeezed his chin, "This is a good thing."

Just like that fake list, Amy Adams is the hottest best supporting actress predicted by the media. Now that he has chosen an overseas actress, the college seems to want to change the over-American situation of the past two Oscars and change to an international route. .

Like Ryan said, this is a good thing, after all, Nicole is not an American actor.

Nicole also understands this. Her eyes swept across Ryan's face, and suddenly she thought of herself from the guest lineup just now, and said in a low voice, "Couldn't Natalie Portman be one of the best actress award guests?"

Although Nicole still had a smile on her face, it was completely superficial.

"Nate was on a location in Israel." Ryan shook his head, not shy away, "I didn't come back."

Nicole's eyes flickered when she heard this name that was once very close, but then was so disgusting. One hand fell on Ryan's leg, as if he wanted to grab a hand viciously, so as to vent the resentment that still couldn't dissipate in my heart.

The two were very familiar, even if only the light from the corner of the eye swept across Nicole's face. Ryan could roughly guess part of her thoughts, quietly protruding one hand, holding the hand next to his leg, and wrapping it tightly.

next moment. The corners of his mouth trembled unconsciously, even if only by feeling, he knew it. Those long nails must have fallen into his palms.

"The winner of the best adapted screenplay is..."

Steve Martin and Tina Fey on the stage have already awarded the best original screenplay, and the winner behind is, "Simon Beaufort, "Slumdog Millionaire", adapted from Vikas? Svalup’s novel "q&a"."

This British film that takes place in India is one of the big winners on the nomination list. Facts also prove that Brad Pitt's "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" is the supporting role and background of this film.

"The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" only won two technical awards for Best Makeup and Best Artistic Director. The other co-nominated lists were almost completely defeated.

"Weakness" has only two nominations for Best Actress and Best Picture. At other times, Ryan and Nicole are acting as spectators.

Of course, there are other films under Walt Disney's that entered the scope of the awards, such as the best animated feature film.

"Jack, I heard that you started your own animated feature film career?"

On the stage, Jennifer Aniston and Jack Black were playing tricks. Jack Black took over Aniston’s words and said, “Yes, I have participated in the dubbing of the DreamWorks animated feature film in recent years, and then download Betting that Pixar will win the best animated feature film award."

A burst of laughter broke out under the stage, and the camera gave Jerefo Katzenberg a close-up in a timely manner.

"I'm very sorry, Mr. Katzenberg," Aniston said, holding Jack Black. "We don't know where he came from."

"I don't think Mr. Katzenberg will mind." Jack Black teased timely, "They all belong to Disney now."

"How powerful are Disney's cartoons," he continued, "you can see from this list of nominations."

"Then let's take a look." Jennifer Aniston turned to the big screen, which was a wonderful editing of past animated feature films.

Passing through the sky surrounded by trash, the camera zoomed in to the ground. Wali cut through a pile of trash and found two curious objects-a video tape and an Oscar figurine!

He picked up the little golden man in his left hand and the video tape in his right hand. Wali hesitated a little, chose the video tape, and threw the little golden man away as trash.

Back home, Walli played a videotape, which showed a green-skinned monster and a donkey, and then a dog jumped out. This quick and sharp editing is to introduce the three animated feature films that were nominated this year- "Robot Walli", "Lightning Dog" and "Shrek 3".

The former comes from Pixar Studios, while the latter two are produced by DreamWorks Animation Studios.

After the animation was edited, a close-up of Ryan appeared in the middle of the big screen. Without anyone introducing or mentioning something, the Kodak Theater burst into applause, and then someone stood up, even if some of them were reluctant, but stood up There are more and more people, and they can only stand up with them.

The audience stood up and paid tribute to the key figures who rebuilt Disney's glory with the warmest applause!

Ryan also stood up and applauded softly. It is no exaggeration to say that he has snatched the limelight from the winner of the best animated feature film.

Of course, for the Pixar studio, who won the prize and got numb, it doesn't care much about this kind of thing.

The winner is "Robot Walli". Although the market response is relatively cold, this kind of subject matter with high coldness and reflection is the Oscar's favorite.

Pixar Studios has won too many awards. In the best animated feature film, to describe it from the East, it is ‘when Pixar comes out, who will fight for it’!

Andrew Stanton, who came to the stage to receive the award, looked very calm like Brad Bird last year. After finishing his routine thanks, he hurriedly walked into the backstage.

Subsequently, "Slumdog Millionaire" began to highlight the dominance of this year's Oscars. They won the best sound, best photography, best editing, best dubbing, best sound editing and best Many awards such as original songs can be called the biggest winner.

After Hugh Jackman and Beyoncé singing and dancing, the best supporting actor ushered in the award moment, just like the best supporting actress, Jon Gray and Alan Akin and other five best supporting actor in the past walk On the stage, there is no suspense in the result. Although the movie and the role are different, as before, with the advantage of having died, Heath Ledger won the crown of best supporting actor without any suspense.

This is the Oscar. There are so many ways to get an award, which is also a very different kind.

If he didn’t meet God in his previous life, Heath Ledger might not get the best supporting actor 90% of the time. The reason is very, very simple. He appeared in not only large-scale commercial films, but also comic superhero movies... …

Most of the Oscar judges have deep-rooted discrimination against this type of film or role, but they can care about the living, but like all the public, they are extremely tolerant of the dead.

Looking at the parents who accepted the award in place of Heath Ledger, Ryan stood up and applauded like everyone else, and like most people around him, there was no thought in his heart.

This is Hollywood, even without James Cameron, it can still operate as usual.

Just like the best supporting actress, this is only part of the awards ceremony, and the four most important awards are still placed at the end.

Unlike in the past, where male guests always presented the best director award, Reese Witherspoon stood on the stage.

"In front of , all the components of film art have appeared. There is only one professional exception, that is, the director. The director is the chief executive of a crew. He is in power and he is also a parent, brother and negotiation expert. When actors stay in the nanny car and refuse to come out, the director is also responsible for bringing them out."

The former Oscar queen looked at a place below the stage, "Of course such a person is not me, that is Ben Stiller."

"The best director nominated for this year's Oscars..."

In line with the big screen, she introduced the five best director nominees one by one, and then opened the envelope. The result was as everyone expected, "Danny Bowie... "Slumdog Millionaire"!"

So far, in the heavyweight awards that have been awarded, the best supporting actress has been given to the Spanish, the best supporting actor has been given to the Australians, and the best director has been given to the British. The trend of internationalization is very obvious.

What about the best actress? (To be continued...)
