Collecting God Meow Swinging Tail 9 When Hugo took the title of the new Oscar best supporting actor and the new Cannes actor in the summer season, people’s doubts about the "speed of life and death" still could not be eliminated.

Because everyone knows that the actor’s box office appeal can certainly bring an immeasurable effect to the movie. This is also the true meaning of Hollywood making box office stars; but no one will ignore the importance of the work itself, a top box office star It may be ruined by a super bad movie, and there are countless examples.

The most typical example is Francis-Ford-Coppola. Although "The Godfather 3" is still above the standard, but compared with the first two in the series, it has lost the reputation of "Dogfather" and disappointed the audience. "After it came out, in the last four years, he has only had one director's work, "Four Hundred Years of Vampire Zombie Fright".

In fact, Hugo himself is also a typical example. The success of the "Death Poetry Society" was completely offset by the subsequent three bad films and fell to the bottom.

The success or failure of a work is the only evaluation criterion in Hollywood, just like a victory in a sports game.

Therefore, the disadvantages of "speed of life and death" make it difficult for the media to be optimistic about this work. Especially when this work is full of topics and may become a historical work of Hugo's sword making, the media becomes more critical.

In addition to those media who are gloating and waiting to see the jokes of 20th Century Fox, there are other media who have pointed the finger directly at Hugo. "New York Post". Colin Myler (.myler) took the position of editor-in-chief of the "New York Post" for only three short years, but he used his ability to increase the sales of the "New York Post" by a full 30%. This is the newspaper's best performance in 15 years since Rupert-Murdoch (rupert.) acquired the "New York Post" in 1977. Now, Colin has become Murdoch's most trusted general. In the second half of last year, there was even news that Murdoch wanted him to be responsible for the media affairs of the entire eastern coastline.

It is a pity that the "New York Post" subsequently experienced the blow of the Witch Trial and fell into an inextricable mire. The sales of newspapers fell sharply by 20%, almost offsetting all of Colin's efforts over the previous year. After returning to the pre-liberation period, Colin's promotion would naturally come to nothing. This makes Colin absolutely hate Hugo.

This time the release of "Life and Death Speed", although the general attitude of the media is not optimistic, they did not focus their fire on Hugo. On the one hand, because of the previous hospital incidents and scandals, the reporters did not have an advantage in the confrontation. They With this mentality, since "Life and Death Hour" does not require media publicity and attention, they let the crew take their own fruits, so the number of reports is not too much, let alone attacks; on the other hand, it is because as Yu Yu Guo said in an interview at the beginning of the year: Everything will be settled after the movie is released. But Colin didn't think so. As the editor-in-chief of the "New York Post", Colin must have a keen sense of news and accurate judgment. Although he hates Hugo deeply, he calmed down and thought about it. After comprehensive consideration, Colin thought: " "Life and death speed" is bound to fail miserably.

Colin's conclusion is supported by multiple evidences. First, the issue of "speed of life and death" has been discussed by countless media, and it has also been recognized by the major production companies in the circle; second, Although the series of strategies adopted by "Life and Death Hour" after the adjustment schedule seem to have worked well, everyone with a discerning eye knows that as long as the work fails to meet expectations after the release of the work, they will face a huge disaster; thirdly, "Life and Death Hour" will have to face it shortly after the release. The most important impact on works such as "Wolf", "Forrest Gump" and "The Lion King" is the "True Lies" of the same type of movies. In summary, the "speed of life and death" is definitely hopeless. As a result, Colin came to the final conclusion: we must seize this opportunity to hit Hugo severely, not only for a breath of malice, but also for the accumulation of momentum in the future confrontation.

"Hugo-Lancaster's Waterloo?"

The "New York Post" published an article under the headline four days before "Life and Death" was about to be released.

"After experiencing a series of great successes, Hugo Lancaster has obviously lost the sight, and has repeatedly refused to cooperate with media interviews, not only during the usual rest time, even during the work promotion period. In this way, he even thinks that he can be above the reporter and use his way to manipulate the media to serve him. Obviously, Lancaster can't find his way again in the neon lights of Hollywood, which makes people see again in a daze.' The scene before the movie'Death'.

Lancaster thinks that he can rely on his own powerful appeal, but he obviously forgot that this is Hollywood, where he can achieve great success by relying on one work, but it is also because one work can have nothing in the world. hell.

Behind Lancaster’s arrogant, arrogant, violent and proud temper, maybe he could not see the fierce competition in the summer file, maybe he could not see the excellence and excellence of other works, and maybe he could not see the decadence and decay of his own works. Bored, he just thought that the audience would pay for his willful choice again. But obviously, this is not the case.

When Lancaster confidently announced that he would reject all interviews by reporters during the filming of the film, he blocked reporters at the same time, also foreshadowing that the work "Speed ​​of Life and Death" might become Lancaster's Waterloo. !"

After that, this article cited a lot of evidence to prove to people that the film was terrible, and even cited accidents during filming, thinking that this was the persecution of actors by low-cost films.

"Although the failure of'Life and Death Hour' will disappoint many people, but in turn, it is not a good thing. If Lancaster, who is complacent and arrogant, can wake up, he can reposition himself and learn to be humble. Be cautious. If. Then maybe one Waterloo can bring some fresh air to Hollywood."

This article in the "New York Post" was quite a bitch. The sons still have the taste of an archway. On the one hand, they criticized Hugo, on the other hand, they pretended to care about the future of Hugo. Standing on a moral high point, they looked at the movie "Speed ​​of Life and Death" like a god. Success or failure.

But in fact, this view has received a lot of approval.

At present, Glory to Death is on the "Road to Glory" tour, and the band rarely accepts media interviews, just concentrate on the performance, plus after the previous Cannes Film Festival, Hugo returned to Los Angeles to practice , And did not accept any interviews. It can be said that the halo brought by the title of Cannes actor did not cause more waves.

With such a phenomenon, those who know the truth will know that Hugo is fully engaged in the tour, which is a professional performance; but people who don’t know it will think that Hugo is playing a big name and hitting the top. On the contrary, he is unwilling to work with the media. With the addition of Oscars, Hugo put almost all of his energy on the music career, and it is easier for people to have an imaginary that "Hugo doesn't care about movies".

Therefore, Colin’s opportunity is indeed very clever, especially when most of the media are not optimistic about the "speed of life and death", the "New York Post" directly screamed "speed of life and death", and the movie has not yet been released. The bold prediction of the failure of this work actually caused a lot of discussion-and many people agreed.

Faced with the provocation of the "New York Post", Fox in the 20th century had not had time to react-because this was against Hugo, "speed of life and death" was only a collateral damage, so they responded half a beat; but "the United States" "Weekly" couldn't help but stand up for the first time.

James Rattle wrote a whole report to refute the absurd remarks of the "New York Post" that Hugo was "no one and arrogant", and explained in detail all the work of Hugo after Oscar, so that people can understand that Hugo is not I started playing big cards, but I hope I can devote myself to the tour wholeheartedly.

James is still supporting the "speed of life and death" in the report, thinking that this work will be refreshing, and he has a good chance to make a box office miracle in the fiercely competitive comedy weekend.

The report of the "U.S. Weekly" was in Colin's arms. He was worried that the lack of media response would weaken the effect of the report. So after seeing the "U.S. Weekly" report, Colin immediately published the second article in the "New York Post". It is reported that this is precisely the day of the premiere of "Life and Death".

"Faced with our newspaper’s accusations, Hugo Lancaster did not even dare to respond to interviews by the media. Our reporter tried to contact Lancaster and his agent three times before and after, but they all rejected ours. Interview request. Is this a manifestation of a guilty conscience? We don't know.

But one thing we can be sure of is that the ‘speed of life’ is facing a huge dilemma, and it may even be impossible to recover the cost. At the beginning of the year, "Los Angeles Times" reporter Nicholas McLenna once declared that he believed that "Life and Death Speed" has a chance to hit the box office of 100 million US dollars, but this newspaper thinks that this movie has a chance to hit the 28 million cost line!

Since Lancaster rejected our interview ~www.readwn.com~ we can only ask him this question here, "Hugo" do you think the box office can exceed the 100 million threshold? If not, you are willing to accept this newspaper The interview? Do you apologize for your rudeness in rejecting interviews in the past few months?...

The title of this report is impressively "A 100 Million Dollar Interview?" It is full of the "New York Post" mockery of Hugo and "speed of life and death."

Colin chose to pull out the "Los Angeles Times" war post from the beginning of the year on the day of the premiere of "Life and Death", awakening the memory of all the media and all audiences. In fact, he wanted to incite the atmosphere of the media and let Hugo at the premiere. It’s not easy, because almost no one thinks that this movie has the ability to hit the 100 million dollar threshold; more importantly, after the fiasco of "Life and Death", the "New York Post" can beat Hugo's arrogance in one go. .

Colin's plan is obviously not limited to this. It is not enough to rely solely on the momentum created by the "New York Post". This time, Colin found an alliance! In other words, the alliance took the initiative to stand behind Colin! (To be continued [provided]. If you like this work, you are welcome to read it and vote for a monthly pass for the work.
