I’m in Hollywood - Chapter 898

[Chapter 888 How many Bond girls are there?]

“I am Bond, James Bond. ㈧(1) Chinese website” In the

concert hall, after Bond and the Angel trio destroyed the Spectre base and rescued Angela, the picture was frozen with the iconic line of oo7, The end credits begin to rise.

Although it was a screening ceremony, at this time in the past, even if the audience did not get up and leave immediately, there would be some commotion.

But this time, when the subtitles were raised, there was no movement at the scene. Although “Casino Royale of oo7” is an uncompromising commercial action blockbuster, apart from those thrilling scenes, the film still gives people Countless details that can be recalled over and over again.

Of course, the upcoming Easter Egg is also one of the most important reasons for everyone to wait patiently.

“My dad said that the more mysterious the boss is, the quicker he will die. Look, he is right again. I don’t know if Charlie will cover his face first when it explodes. I haven’t seen it yet. He looks like him.”

At the end of the end credits, along with the pictures that gradually light up, it is still the chattering voice of Lucini played by Penelope, but this time her tone was a little flustered and calm. sad.

The camera became clear, three tall figures in strong suits but a little embarrassed were looking for something on the ruins of a hut that was hit by a bomb. Jill and Selena worked together to lift a collapsed wall panel, and Lucini squatted down. A pile of debris was cleared away, and two walkie-talkies tied together were quickly found.

“Well, it looks like we don’t need to change bosses. God knows, we don’t have any salary for this month.”

Lucini sniffled and muttered a few words while crying and laughing. Jill and Selena also gathered around. .

The walkie-talkie with some scorch marks on the surface suddenly emitted a zizi electric sound.

When both the angel trio on the screen and the audience in the concert hall were expecting the sound from the walkie-talkie, the picture suddenly went dark.

“Fbsp; Many audience members in the concert hall who had just been whetted couldn’t help but utter a Western-style scolding in their hearts, but when the lights were lit around, everyone still applauded enthusiastically. Whether it was screening guests, media film critics People are still lucky fans, and they are extremely satisfied with the whole film. Even some film critics who were instructed to find faults couldn’t help giving the film an eight out of 10.

Even, many people were obviously a little unfulfilled. At the beginning of the simple press conference, the first reporter in the audience asked Eric: “Mr. Williams, I am a reporter from The Guardian, may I ask if the last easter egg is due to the three angels? The crew and Bond teamed up to destroy the Spectre base, resulting in the revenge of the detective agency boss Charlie Townsend by Spectre?

”

I couldn’t answer you that question originally,

” Eric said with a smile on stage, “but, for the sake of you being a fan of the Secret Service Cinematic Universe, well, the answer is yes.”

There was a chuckle in the arena, and the reporter, who was still a little green, was also a little embarrassed. He was indeed a die-hard fan of the MGM Agents Cinematic Universe series, otherwise he wouldn’t be clueless just by relying on a few groups

.

The camera quickly thought of these, and even gave up the originally prepared questions, and couldn’t wait to ask Eric for confirmation on the guess in his heart.

Naturally, there was only one chance to ask questions, so he reluctantly handed over the microphone in his hand, and the other came from The “Daily Telegraph” reporter got the opportunity to ask questions and said: “Mr. Williams, what do you think of the successive failures of this summer’s big live-action movies, do you think the box office of “Casino Royale” will be affected by these factors Affect?

”

Audiences are looking forward to good movies. If the film company only has the ambition to catch up with the box office of “Titanic”, but does not show the sincerity of “Titanic”, then they are doomed to fail.

As for “Casino Royale,” I did everything I could, so I’m pretty confident about the movie’s box office prospects.

”

“So do you think “Casino Royale” can catch up with “Titanic” at the box office?

‘ Another reporter asked a slightly more acrimonious subject.

Eric didn’t hesitate too much, he played Tai Chi, and said, “It depends on whether the fans want to create another box office miracle.”

Eric’s answers to several questions had some official rhetoric. The reporters in the audience realized that it was difficult to get too much sensitive information from Eric, and ordered to turn their guns and turn the question to Cate Blanchett, a ‘rookie’.

Although Cate Blanchett’s agent had repeatedly told her how to deal with reporters before the screening ceremony, in the face of the siege of these reporters, Kate was still a little bit overwhelmed, and inevitably fell into the siege of reporters several times. The problem trap, Eric, Barbara Bullocky and others had to take the initiative to help Kate stop some problems.

“I’m so sorry, Eric, I didn’t think that the question about Charlize and the others was actually directed at you,” after the press conference, at the party at the Hyde Park Hotel, Eric had just been socializing, Cate Blanchett Chet took the initiative to come over with a glass of wine to apologize.

Eric shook his head with a smile and said, “It doesn’t matter, you will have experience in such occasions a few times in the future. By the way, everyone is saying that your performance is amazing. Do you have any plans for the next movie?”

As a newcomer, when Kate got the role of Vesper Linde, she naturally signed a three-film option contract with Firefly. Her next two films must be selected from Firefly’s film company, but It is not Eric’s turn to intervene in these minutiae matters.

Kate shook her head and said, “Not yet. New Line has recommended a few scripts to me. However, Ron hopes that I will wait until “Casino Royale” is released before deciding.”

Kate just finished speaking and suddenly realized It seems that these thoughts that are up for sale should not be brought up in front of Eric, and his face can not help but turn a little red, and even embarrassedly wants to run away.

Eric just smiled, but he didn’t mind too much, and even had a good impression of Kate’s frankness. He really wanted to take the initiative to jump over this topic. A middle-aged man and a woman walked side by side. The man looked like a fifty-year-old man. , tall, with a beard.

The woman was about thirty or forty years old. Unlike the other female guests at the party who were wearing dresses, this woman was wearing a professional dress, but she had a somewhat shrewd and capable temperament.

“Hello, Mr. Williams, I’m Frank Lipton, a film critic,” Frank Lipton stretched out his hand to Eric first, even though he was heading for Kate.

Eric shook hands with the other party, saw the woman next to Frank Lipton looking at Kate unabashedly, probably realized the purpose of the two, gestured to the woman, and asked Frank Lipton with a smile. : “Who is this?” The

woman quickly retracted her gaze on Kate, and politely extended her hand to Eric and introduced herself: “Mr. Williams, my name is Allison Owen, from orking-Tit1e Films. Producer.”

orking-Tit1e, Eric recalled, thinking of last year’s “Frozen” by the Coen Brothers, as well as the Oscar hits “Death Walk”, “Four Weddings and a Funeral” in previous years, etc. Movies and production companies have the name of this company in the list, and some other films that have not yet appeared in my mind seem to have the imprint of this film company. In this way, the status of this company in the UK should be the same as that of French Gaumont Films. The company is similar. Of course, if it is placed in Hollywood, it can only be regarded as second-tier at most.

There were still many guests around to entertain. Realizing that the two were here for Kate, Eric took the initiative to leave. If the two wanted to invite Kate to appear in a movie, they would naturally be able to bypass Firefly. meddle in something.

The UK is five hours ahead of the US Eastern Time. Due to the time difference, Eric and the girl didn’t have much rest after the party.

Early the next morning, the first batch of film reviews about “Casino Royale of oo7” appeared in British local newspapers, and as it approached noon, film reviews from the United States continued to come.

“The plot is compact and smooth, and the 145-minute plot can be seen in one go. Eric Williams is back after Jurassic Park.” – “The Guardian”

“After a series of bad summer seasons After the impact of the film, “Casino Royale” finally brought us a hot visual feast.” – “Daily Telegraph”

“Australian rookie actress Cate Blanchett’s performance is amazing, Vesper Lynn is destined to become the most classic Bond girl image in the oo7 series. Christina Aguilera, the youngest in oo7 history Bond Girls also gave us a satisfying performance during their brief appearance. The Angels trio fell out of the sky. And of course, the long-awaited ‘Muppet Girls’, Williams always Fans will be disappointed. It’s just, one, two, three, four, five, six… well, all I can say is, Casino Royale is definitely the most Bond girl in oo7 history.” – The World The News”

“Eric Williams’s “Casino Royale” has redefined the oo7 series even without the interlude of the Secret Service movie universe. In the film, James Bond is finally no longer in suits and attire. , he began to get injured, tired, fell in love, and began to pursue the life of ordinary people… Perhaps, such a Bond is what everyone really wants to see. The underwater farewell of Bond and Vesper is heartbreaking, then The sentence ‘The work is over, the slut is dead’ gives people a feeling of despair. Although Bond was finally reborn and became the top-level agent who made the enemy feel fearful, we can be sure that from now on, Bang De will become a true mortal rather than a screen symbol that towers above reality.” – The New York Times ”

There is no doubt that MGM’s Secret Service Cinematic Universe project, in “oo7 Casino Royale” After that, it was officially on the right track. Eric Williams had the right combination of the plots of the three series. The overall style of the oo7 series was not affected by the two series at all, but the integration of the plots of the three series brought fans a lot of attention. More movie viewing pleasure.” – “San Francisco Chronicle”

In the villa on Garden Street in Kensington, Eric and the girl just had lunch, still sitting in the dining room looking at Peter Ritchie just delivered A summary of various film reviews.

Patiently flipping through the review summary in her hand, the girl raised her head excitedly: “The overall rating is 9, Eric, how much box office do you think we can get this time?”

In Eric’s hands, he just collected the North American box office data for last week. After the second week of screening, Finding Nemo once again earned $65.63 million at the box office. In two weeks, the total box office has reached $163 million. Everyone is envious. In the eyes of hatred, it continued to lead the entire summer file, and the major box office statistics agencies no longer doubted that “Finding Nemo” has the strength to hit the North American box office of 300 million.

In comparison, the weekly box office of “Batman and Robin” is only 59.47 million US dollars. The comprehensive media score of this 125-million-dollar comic blockbuster has not only dropped to the ranks of worthless 1 point, but the weekly box office is far worse. A few weeks ago, “Godzilla” cost more than 70 million, and Time Warner Group has publicly announced that it will stop all of its DC’s comic film projects.

Even, due to the box office fiasco of “Batman and Robin”, the industry is not optimistic about the two projects “Spider-Man” and “Iron Man” launched by Firefly at the same time. Avi Arad even called to say that the original The attitude of some actors who intend to appear in the two comic films has suddenly cooled down recently, UU reading www.

com even caa, the agency of Stuart Runkel, who was supposed to play Spider-Man, took the opportunity to raise its offer and demanded that the number of six-part film contracts be reduced to less than three.

While thinking about these things, when he heard the girl’s words, Eric put down the box office data sheet in his hand, and also took the film review of “Casino Royale” and browsed it, and said: “This, it is not easy to say, although North America has always been The oo7 series is the largest box office market. But at the same time, the oo7 series is not very popular in North America. I think, according to the current word of mouth, plus my personal box office appeal and the halo blessing of the agent movie universe, “Casino Royale” The North American box office should be able to reach 200 million US dollars, and it may be better overseas. It should be 400 million US dollars. After all, the influence of “Jurassic Park” is still there.”

“Eric, why haven’t you? I’m confident, I just talked to Amy, and she thinks that this film may hit 300 million at the North American box office.”

Eric smiled: “It’s pointless to say this now, after the North American daily box office is released tomorrow, it should be You can make some judgments.”

“Okay,” the girl put down the topic temporarily and blinked her eyes: “Then what shall we do this afternoon?” (To be continued.)
