Chapter 148: Parenting Habits, Random Filming, Awards Audience
??Chapter 148 Parenting habits, random filming, award audience
??There has always been a problem with the old men.
Either like Ron Howard, Francis Coppola, Clint Eastwood, like to meddle in the juniors' business; or like George Lucas, Steven Spielberg, Stocking the juniors.
They in the first team, the juniors under their name, pursued freedom frantically. After participating in a series of movies directed by her father, Bryce Howard finally said No to her father after "A Beautiful Mind". Dad took a notebook when he had nothing to do, so that he could live a life of acting, so she went to New York University to study in the acting department in pursuit of freedom, but she didn't even think that the teacher who taught her was Martin Scorsese The first project "Mysterious Village" that I got with my own ability, the director was found by Katherine Kennedy, and she played with Joaquin Phoenix, Adrien Brody...
?? Then she resigned to her fate and lived a boring and tasteless life, so that she fell in love at the age of twenty and got married at the age of twenty-five. (But I want to live such a boring and tasteless life!)
??Nicolas Cage is the same, even if the name is changed, what's the use?
??As long as you are still filming, your own people will just look up and see you down.
??Not to mention Dongmu's son, they can play what they like.
?? But they will also find that there are a bunch of guys they know who like the same thing as themselves.
??As for them in the second team, it was the children who asked to help.
?? Stepdaughter wants to make a movie?
no problem.
??Stepdaughter thinks "Grey's Anatomy" is a good show?
??Ok, write the cameo as permanent.
??Daughter wants to make a movie?
?? All right, but don’t embarrass others with your acting skills, show your face with soy sauce, and meet your needs.
The different education methods may have something to do with their own experiences. Ron Howard is a child star, and the rest of the family are not bad. During their growth, they were controlled by their parents, so they also developed this habit. But the guys in the stocking camp are all noisy with their parents, so they don't want to see their children fighting against themselves.
?? But the problem is—
?? I don’t care whether you like it or not, but you can’t take away my fancy cabbage!
?? It doesn't fit, don't care if it doesn't fit!
?? Let someone come to meet you first!
In this way, when Brian Palmer uttered the word audition, Roland directly regarded him as a class enemy, and after he vaguely stated, he could let them try the second part. When Mary-Jane…
??The old man, who had seen through his mind, burst into laughter.
"Oh! It's been four years, and I can't bear it anymore!" Francis Coppola, who often attends various banquets, laughed and patted the table, "When I was your age, I had already watched a lot of movies. It's..."
??That’s right, this guy who cosplays with the Italian mafia every day is the same as the young marshal who lived to be 101 years old.
??So, when it comes to such a topic, there is no barrier at all.
"Have you seen their photos?" George Lucas, who also chose to enjoy life at the age of forty, put his elbows on the table and swept Roland's body with curious eyes, " Tell me, who do you like?"
?? "Or, who do you think is beautiful?"
??As soon as these words came out, the guys present instantly aroused their desire to gossip.
??Even Steven Spielberg, who was evaluated by his boss as "do not believe in love", rested his chin on one hand.
The Ron Howard, who loves his daughter, is even more 'utilitarian'. Before Roland spoke, this guy who had already been bald in the Mediterranean said very seriously, "Meryl will be filming "The Bridge of the Covered Bridge" with Clint in September. "Dream", Tom is going to shoot "Apollo 13" with me in August, so I suggest you answer George's question after careful consideration, OK? I gave you a chance."
?? "Ronald, I didn't expect you to start threatening people again!"
?? "Clint isn't here, don't you need to be so excited?"
?? "He's like this, his daughter is like a baby..."
The daughter's slave-like performance made those guys laugh and tremble, and Francis Coppola, who was afraid that the world would not be chaotic, also added fuel to the fire, saying: "Roland, Anthony's next project is "Nixon Biography". And Robert has already accepted Martin's "Casino", and he has also accepted "Fuse", if you don't plan it, maybe you can't play it?"
I wanted to join in the fun, but Martin Scorsese, who was slapped by his old friend, raised his face. His expression at the moment, and "The Irishman" scored zero in 10, so he had to go home and hug him with a homemade trophy. It's the same as when you join in the fun with your dog.
??Although I really want to show that the whole thing has nothing to do with me, but—
?? Well, at this time, the key is to fire.
?? "Uh... can I say I haven't seen them?"
??Feeling the chasing gazes from the seven people, Roland knew that he had stabbed a hornet's nest, but he didn't hesitate!
??I just want to have a normal relationship with beautiful women, what's wrong?
?? Of course, it would be even better if there is a chance to draw a thread!
??However, isn't it a little bad to say such a naked thing in front of these guys?
?? After thinking about it for a few seconds, Roland, who was in a hurry, coughed.
?? "I said let them try Mary Jane, but I just don't want to waste the opportunity to outsiders!"
?? "Oh!~~~" (?, ?, ??, ?)
Looking at the serious Roland and listening to the explanation of running the train, these idle and boring guys even started to sigh, but they felt that Roland was not lying, because no matter who it was, now everyone No big hit works came out.
?? "It seems that you haven't seen my film "Sweet Home"." Ron Howard said with a smile, "You haven't seen "The Prodigal Bodyguard" either."
?? "Robert, are you confused? "The Prodigal Bodyguard" hasn't been released yet, how could Roland have seen it?"
Brian Palmer, who has been unilaterally listed by Roland as a class enemy, is now helping Roland speak, "But when it comes to "The Prodigal Bodyguard", I have a question, how could Rob Reiner make such a bad movie? When he filmed "Walk with Me" for Rui Fan before, wasn't the standard pretty good? And when he filmed "When Harry Met Sally" for Meg and Kelly, it sold almost 100 million! "The Heroes of the Sea of ??Righteousness", which I collaborated with Tom and Jack the year before, was of a good standard! Why..."
?? "How did you screw up our project this time?"
??When the topic was brought into "The Prodigal Son's Bodyguard" by Brian Palmer, the group of people who were still looking for Roland happy there all looked a little ugly—since you want to praise people, you must look at the dishes.
The positioning of "The Prodigal Son's Bodyguard" is a children's comedy, well, to put it bluntly, this is to replicate the success of the "Home Alone" series, so in the formation of the project, the guy who helped them do things is With a lot of thought.
??Director Rob Reiner, that's the guy who picked up River Phoenix in the first place.
Afterwards, they cooperated with sweet sister Meg Ryan, Star Wars Princess Carrie Fisher, Tom Cruise, and Jack Nicholson. After they personally asked these guys how they felt about the director, It was only then that the Cypriots were finalized.
The final lineup is even more talented. The male protagonist Elijah Wood is the Frodo in the "Lord of the Rings" series, the second male Jason Alexander and the female Julia Dreyfus are the "Seinfeld" George and Elaine in "Biography", the screenwriter may be a little weaker. Andrew Scheinman used to do the work of a producer, but after that, he wrote a book called "Pounding Heart" ——This kind of list is incomparable to the guys that Roland asked the old men at first glance, but for newcomers and new movies, this is already very good.
?? After all, not everyone is like Roland, right?
??Start with the book of John Hughes, the king of youth films.
?? But even with this great lineup, they ruined it.
??Because the whole movie is full of disgusting stereotypes.
??Discriminate against religion, satirize the illiteracy of mermaids and dragons in the Hawaiian area annexed by America, bluntly express the savagery of Texas people, and describe them as a group of clowns wearing cowboy hats...
relative! This is a PG-rated children's movie!
??The most important thing about children's movies is the correct orientation of values!
??Just like "Home Alone", no matter how it is filmed, it will not convey the concept of insinuating discrimination to children, because they know that this will arouse the resentment of the children's parents, but-"The Prodigal Son's Bodyguard" just did it!
To be honest, after seeing this lineup, these bigwigs at the scene never thought that this movie would be made like this. Thinking about it with common sense, a guy who has been nominated for an Oscar and has a movie box office of over 100 million , how could it be possible to be nervous to make some movies that disgust the market?
Eh!
?? This group of guys just did it!
so-
??Old men get annoyed when they hear "The Prodigal Bodyguard."
??The 40 million investment is enough to make two "Home Alone"!
?? Now, not to mention that it is as popular as "Home Alone", even if the box office exceeds 10 million, that is just a dream!
?? Lost!
?? Fortunately, it is not they who pay, but Xinxian.
??As long as the one who loses is not yourself, then there is no need to jump.
?? "Who knows what Rob is thinking?"
Francis Coppola raised his glass and took a sip, and said in passing, "Maybe he wants to drive Oscar crazy? Add irony to children's comedies. If he doesn't get blasted by film critics, I won't be in the next year." drink wine!"
"Probably "The Heroes of the Righteous Sea" gave him a taste of the sweetness." Robert Zemeckis yawned, "The military court movie took 240 million at the box office and an Oscar nomination, so he wants to replicate this success?"
"But even if you want to copy it, you can't add satirical elements to children's films, right?" Ron Howard sighed, "It's a pity that the investment of 40 million is wasted like this. Oscar is good, but it doesn't need to be like this." Bar?"
??As soon as this remark was made, the scene immediately fell silent.
?? Except for Francis Coppola and Steven Spielberg who have already won the statuette, and George Lucas who is not going to win the award at all, the expressions of the rest of the people are very strange.
Robert Zemeckis is going to win an award next year, Martin Scorsese has never been liked by the Academy, Brian Palmer also wants to think about an Oscar, and even Ron Howard himself is planning to use "Apollo 13" rush one out...
??In this situation, they are instead attacking a guy who wants to win an award?
?? Isn’t this the deaf man listening to the dumb saying that the blind sees ghosts?
?? After reacting, Ron Howard also felt that there was something wrong with his words.
?? And just as he was about to break the deadlock, George Lucas waved his hand.
?? "If Woody hears your words, he will be very happy."
??Lon Howard was startled for a moment, and then laughed out loud in cooperation, "Yeah, Yeah, Yeah..."
"Woody is right, the whole concept of awards is stupid, we can't abide by other people's judgments, because if you accept judgments that say you deserve an award, when they say you shouldn't, you don't It must also be accepted."
??From the moment they chatted about "The Prodigal Bodyguard", Roland fell silent.
??Although this was Scarlett's movie, he was afraid that as soon as he interrupted, these guys would start making fun of him again.
??Is it not good to eat melons in silence?
??Why do you want to jump out and be a target for these guys?
And when he heard Oscar and heard the name Woody, he was stunned for a while, and didn't react until Ron Howard said the other party's famous quote. It turned out that these guys were talking about Woody Allen. Lun.
??That's right, Woody Allen doesn't like Oscars, he even thinks this award is mentally retarded.
??The old man feels that all creators have their own preferences and ideas. If they are disturbed by external voices, they will basically not be able to make any good movies in this life.
Accepting an Oscar means that you are influenced by the voices of the judges, but he doesn't feel that those guys have any right to influence himself-he always knows what he likes and what he wants to shoot, so he never accepts the award, but even so he doesn't To save face for the academy, the academy still gave him 23 nominations, one for best director and three for best screenplay.
?? "Of course, if Catherine hears about it, she will be very happy."
??Spielberg also followed Ron Howard's words and made a joke.
?? Roland also knew the Catherine the old man was talking about.
??Katherine Hepburn!
?? Known as the symbol of the spirit of America, she got 4 out of 12 mentions, and the most important thing is that she never accepted the award at all.
?? The only time I went to the Oscars was to give an honorary award to my friend Lawrence.
?? And in the words of Lawrence, 'She thinks the audience loves her, and that's enough'.
??Whether the film is good or not is a matter of the film, but it is not a matter of the film.
??The creators took the film with heart and told the story clearly and completely, which is a kind of success for them. In this case, who can accept the failure after their hard work?
The audience spends time and money to watch the movie, and it is their success if they understand it well. If they don’t know what to say, that is their failure. In this case, they naturally have the right to criticize or praise any movie.
?? As for the awards, the same is true. You can't influence anyone's decision. Just like Woody Allen said, since you have participated in this game, you have lost the right to criticize injustice forever.
??Because when you deny them, you are actually denying yourself.
??Of course, these bigwigs sprayed awards and refused awards, that is the capital they have a foothold in.
?? And those artistic cells are still too far away from Roland.
?? Sitting there without saying a word, he only felt that the crowd around him were two distinct camps.
?? Either they have already taken it, or they are ready to impact or want to impact.
?? But regardless of which camp it is, only George Lucas, who doesn't care at all, lives chicly.
??Whether you take it or want to take it, you are working hard for your name!
?? And he doesn't care about the false name of the award at all!
??Of course, he is also standing and talking without back pain, to put it bluntly—
??Compared with the Oscar winner, the father of Star Wars obviously has a bigger name in the front!
??I am the father of a generation! What is an Oscar!
??When you can make a generation crazy, the name of the award can’t make you happy...
??Because there are awards every year, but Dad, there is only one.
"Today is my birthday! Isn't it a little too much for you to say Oscar in front of me, a guy who will never win an Oscar?" George Lucas seemed to have thought of something, and directly opened his mouth to disperse the crowd on the table. Embarrassed, "Shall we change the subject? For example, after the violent death of "The Prodigal Bodyguard", what movie are you planning to arrange?"
?? "Steven, are you still planning to let her go to your wife's movie to make a face?"
?? "There is a little guy here who can't wait to meet his peers!"
Eh!
Eh!
Eh! !
?? Feeling that he has nothing to do tonight, Roland, who had been pretending to be dead, immediately regained his energy when he heard this remark!
??If you guys talk about this, then I won't be sleepy!
??Originally, from the first time he saw the other party, he thought Lucas was a good person, now he sees...
?? Grab the grass! I have really good eyesight!
Note: ? Errata, it is wrong that six of the seven people written in the previous chapter won Oscars, and Brian Palmer didn’t win either. The movie, The Black Dahlia. ?Bryce and his father did have a fight. This was what Dongmu's son complained about at the premiere of "Mule". They talked about it when they talked about their father, envious of Bryce. ?The lineup of "The Prodigal Bodyguard" is really not bad, but maybe the director was suddenly downgraded. Even Roger Ebert, for the first time, raged about this movie on TV after watching the movie. Movie silliness. ?I take "Pounding Heartbeat" as an example not because it is good or bad, it is purely because that person is the only one who can write about it. ?Woody Allen is really stupid to spray Oscars on the media. He feels that following the taste of the judges will only limit his own movies. ? Katharine Hepburn's friend Lawrence mentioned in the article is a producer who made films for sneer maker Buster Keaton and jade lady Elizabeth Taylor. Katharine Hepburn did not accept the award, but she never explained why to the media. ? As for those who don’t get awards, there are even more. Paul Newman is playing with people by spraying the academy directly to the media. He won the last nomination for the best actor seven times in 30 years. The most ridiculous reason is that he is young. George Scott said no, he wasn't interested in a two-hour meat parade.
