my movie years

Chapter 181 Coffee and Tea

The so-called space survival trilogy, the first part is survival of women, the second part is survival of men, and the third part is survival of all mankind.

The propositions are bigger and bigger than the last, and more exciting than the last.If Hollywood made these films, there's not much to say.

But if it is a Chinese-language film director, even if he has experience in directing Hollywood films, telling it is like a horror story.

But it doesn't matter, when you see the final film, all doubting mouths will be closed in the end, just like "Batman: Beginning of War".

As "Batman: Beginning of War" enters the announcement cycle, the public opinion circles in the North American media have continued to question the film.

Not only the media and audience, but even Disney, who is a Hollywood giant, don't quite understand the behavior of Warner Pictures.

In the office of the president of Disney Headquarters, Disney President Robert Iger and Marvel Studios CEO Kevin Feige, as well as Disney executive Yagonia Zeta sat in the office chatting.

"Come on, have a taste. This is coffee beans from Yunan, China. It is hand-ground and has a special flavor." Robert Iger likes to drink hand-ground coffee.

However, Robert Iger usually uses coffee beans from Hawaii or Jamaica, and this is the first time he uses coffee beans from China.

It can be seen that Robert Iger's drunkenness is not about wine, it is not the coffee beans that he tastes, but the director from China.

Kevin Fitch took a sip and his eyes lit up: "It's really good. It has a licorice-like sweetness and a delicate acidity. Although the body is slightly lower, it is still a good coffee bean."

Yagonia Zeta was dissatisfied: "I still prefer coffee beans from Brazil and Guatemala, and I am not used to drinking coffee beans from Asia."

"I remember the Chinese prefer tea," laughs Robert Iger.

“It’s not necessarily true,” Agonia Zeta disagreed: “I’ve been to China and stayed in Beijing, Shanghai, and Guangzhou, where young people pursue fashion and tea drinking is no longer popular.

In their view, drinking tea represents antiques, and drinking coffee represents petty bourgeoisie, fashion and exquisite life. "

"It can be seen how much effort these coffee shops like Starbucks have spent in shaping this impression of life." Robert Iger said.

After discussing coffee, Robert Iger changed the subject: "I heard that the Chinese director is different. He likes to drink tea."

Robert Iger made a pun. Drinking tea and drinking coffee seem to represent a difference in the underlying things, not simply referring to the difference between the two drinks.

"The release date of "Batman: Beginning of War" has been confirmed, and it will be the next weekend of "Iron Man 3." Compared with Robert Iger, who likes to play charades, Kevin Feige speaks more straightforwardly.

"Does this mean to be tough? Kevin, how do you think Chinese directors will create Batman movies?" Robert Iger asked.

"I'm not sure," Kevin Fitch shook his head, "I'm not sure what new tricks Chinese directors can play, especially after we have already made such good results."

The implication is that Kevin Feige believes that "Batman: Beginning of War" will follow the route of Marvel.

But Yagonia Zeta has a different opinion: "I don't think so, I know that Severin Meyer, if he imitates our Marvel style, he will definitely not use a young Chinese director.

There must be something, some quality, that attracted Severin Meyer to make this risky choice. "

Nobody knows what the film will be like until the finished film is seen, but on the issue of style, there are different opinions within Disney.

But this doesn't seem to be Robert Iger's concern. He said directly: "Since Warner Pictures and DC want to die faster, we might as well give them a ride."

Kevin Fitch smiled knowingly: "Dig a hole and bury it in, then step on it firmly, and then put heavy stones on it to ensure that they can't turn over."

There were three laughs in the office, as if seeing the moment of DC's death.

In fact, there is another reason that has not been mentioned, that is, the Chinese director took away some of the technical backbone of Industrial Light and Magic.

This incident made Robert Iger, who led the acquisition of Lucasfilm, very worried. He always believed that Warner Pictures secretly planned to use the hands of Chinese directors to disgust Disney.

Robert Iger admits he was disgusted, and now he's angry too.If Disney doesn't show off its power, Warner Pictures thinks that Disney, the world's number one media group, is a sick Mickey Mouse.

Therefore, Robert Iger must teach Warner Pictures and Severin Meyer a profound lesson.

Regardless of the face-saving and calculation issues involved, anyway, the North American public opinion circle has nothing good to say about "Batman: Beginning of War", and almost all media are not optimistic about the film's prospects.

This kind of view has also spread to the country, which really made a group of black people in the country climax.Some people say that Americans are not optimistic about it, and you, Zhang Hao, will be ashamed if you go out, so you should come back quickly and don't be ashamed!
Some people said that they still insisted on going abroad for development even though they knew that they were not welcome or favored by others. Zhang Hao's behavior of holding his feet was disgusting.

Public opinion on the Internet, sometimes the wind direction is very strange, whichever way the wind blows, netizens will fall in that direction.

But this matter is not one-sided. Don't forget, Zhang Hao has a large fan base.It can be said that among Chinese film directors, Zhang Hao has the largest number of fans, and most of them are young people.

Young people are the main force of online public opinion. Naturally, they are not happy to see someone smearing their favorite director.So in order to protect Zhang Hao, movie fans started to fight against the Heizi navy.

The battlefield ranges from microblogs to forums, to post bars, portal websites, and then to some influential self-media, big V, etc. to participate.

This grand occasion really looked like the bad environment of Internet public opinion in the future.

However, Warner Bros. Pictures, "Batman: Beginning of War", and Zhang Hao himself were not affected at all, and they still went step by step according to the scheduled announcement and release rhythm.

On February 40, local time in North America, one week before the Chinese New Year, the No.[-] Seventh Super Bowl was officially held.

The 49-2012 season championship will be determined by the American Football Conference champion Baltimore Ravens against the National Football Conference champion San Francisco 2013ers.

In the game at the New Orleans Superdome, the Baltimore Ravens scored three first-half touchdowns to establish the lead.

After entering the midfield, the Super Bowl halftime performance known as the American Spring Festival Gala was ushered in.

Since Michael Jackson, the world's pop king, stepped onto the Super Bowl stage in 1993, it has become the dream stage of world-class queens and super rock bands.

Many well-known bands and music queens have performed here, including Madonna Ciccone, The Rolling Stones, Justin Timberlake and more.

And this year, Beyoncé, the super popular queen, stepped onto the Super Bowl halftime show, bringing a very hot stage performance, and it is also one of the most pleasing performances of the Super Bowl halftime show over the years.

Of course, no one can surpass Michael Jackson's performance.

However, for many viewers who don't care about the Super Bowl game or the halftime show, the Super Bowl commercial show before the halftime show is the most concerned part.

I have to admire the commercial operation capabilities of the Super Bowl, whether it is the game itself, or the Super Bowl halftime show, or the period of halftime advertising.

In just a few minutes of advertising time, the advertising industry record has been broken several times, and the advertising fee per second is calculated in hundreds of thousands or even millions of dollars.

As for the advertisements here, apart from seeing the latest product advertisements of big brands, the Hollywood advertising time is what attracts the most attention of movie fans.

Here, commercial blockbusters interested in the summer will release their latest trailers.

"Batman: Begins" is no exception, it and "Iron Man 3" boarded the Super Bowl halftime commercial show, with 30 seconds of time.

Ever since he saw the car chase scene on the streets of Chicago and even had an own goal, Adam Jere has been paying attention to "Batman: Beginning of War".

Even when almost all North American media and movie fans and netizens were not optimistic, Adam Jayer spoke out on the Internet, looking forward to "Batman: Beginning of War".

But he alone is like a leaf falling into the water, he can only drift with the tide, and he can't reverse the direction of public opinion at all.

This made Adam Jell very angry, thinking that prejudice blinded these people's eyes.He has seen the shooting scene and experienced it himself, and he doesn't think the film will be a bad film as described by the media.

No, today he exclusively watched the Super Bowl game at home, not for anything else, just to see the preview of "Batman: Beginning of War".

The proceedings were unremarkable, and Adam Jere was a basketball fan, a fan of Windy Roses Derrick Rose and the Chicago Bulls.

At this time, he should watch Derrick Rose's sharp breakthrough dunks at the Bulls' home court, change direction without slowing down, and then pull the bar for a layup and a series of inhuman basketball performances.

Instead of watching a boring Super Bowl show here, really boring.

The first half is over, and before the halftime show begins, it's finally time for the Super Bowl commercials.

In the same way, because Pepsi is the title sponsor, the first advertisement for Pepsi appeared, followed by the advertisement for Apple mobile phone, a giant company of Google.

When those commercials pass, it's the Super Bowl Hollywood Halftime Show.

The first one to play is this year's summer blockbuster "Iron Man 3".

The box office results created by "The Avengers" are still vivid, and this "Iron Man 3" has been listed as the most anticipated film this year.

This is the popularity and reputation that Marvel has accumulated since its layout in 2008, which is incomparable to "Batman: Beginning of War".

The trailer this time still shows the style of "Iron Man 3", high-tech armor, Tony Stark's gags, and cool action scenes.

After watching the trailer, Adam Jayer was also looking forward to it. He also plans to watch this film this summer.

After that, "The Great Gatsby" starring Leonardo DiCaprio, as well as "Star Trek: Into Darkness", "Fast and Furious 6", and even another reboot of Warner Pictures "" Superman: Man of Steel has released a trailer.

By the end, Adam Jayer hadn't even seen the trailer for "Batman Begins," and the halftime commercial was almost over.

Just when Adam Jayer thought he would not be able to see the latest trailer, the picture on the screen changed. In a gray sky, countless bats gathered to look like a big bat.

The 30-second trailer announced that the new work of Batman, which has been absent for 15 years, is about to meet the audience.

In the short 30-second trailer, the amount of information is very dense, but the TV cannot be paused, and the wonderful pictures flash by.Adam Jayer also saw the Batmobile, and couldn't help shouting cool.

Elsewhere, Super Bowl viewers were treated to the latest trailers for various films, including a trailer for "Batman Begins."

The first feeling in most people's hearts is that the texture of this trailer is not bad, it seems that the texture is not as bad as the media said.
