“Welcome to the future world.”
After passing the metal detector and entering the black tunnel, Gavin began to look at it with infinite curiosity. The entire tunnel was bustling with stations, filled with many people; but what was incredible was that there was no noise or noise, only a gentle discussion was permeating, and the faint restlessness made the blood start to boil quietly.
The entire black tunnel is divided into two parts, with endless stars above the head and soles of the feet. Thousands of broken stars spread out like a vast Milky Way. The stars under the soles of the feet are flowing slowly like gurgling streams; the left and right sides are fluorescent green development, and you can see skeletons colliding crowded.
Obviously, these skeletons are themselves.
So, some viewers who love to play began to play, simulating the animation of skeleton fights. Each move was perfect, and many viewers gathered next to them, and began to watch.
Gavin is a layman and doesn't know much about high-tech projects; but he knows that the technological components of this black tunnel are not cheap and absolutely not expensive, at least not as expensive as imagined. However, in the eyes of the audience, such an experience and such visual effect burst out with an incredible shock and rushing towards him.
There is no harm without comparison.
In contrast, Paramount next door suddenly fell into a disadvantage. Although the theme of the garden party carnival is indeed eye-catching, and it coincides with the family style and child orientation of "Madagascar 3" and complements each other; but the awareness of innovation, topic effect and discussion value are not good.
Warner Bros.'s black tunnel completely beat Paramount; even last night's "Prometheus" became bad and tacky
Last night, the premiere of 20th Century Fox was just a matter of course, and lacked highlights. They moved all the alien models in the "Alien" series to the red carpet, and set up a model of the alien nest on site for visits. In addition, with the appeal of Ridley Scott, James Cameron and David Finch, two directors of the series, respectively, appeared.
Just twenty hours ago, the premiere of "Prometheus" was the most innovative, topical and hottest discussion in this summer. But now, it is eclipsed in front of the premiere of "Edge of Tomorrow". Not only high technology, but also innovation, but the next scene:
When he reached the end of the tunnel, Gavin noticed that the three streets, from south to north, from north to south, and from west to east, were all built into the same environment and results, but the details were different. The passage on the left was volcanic magma surging under his feet, and lightning and thunder above his head; the passage on the opposite side was roaring sea under his feet, and a planetary explosion above his head.
Finally, the three streets converge at the intersection, walk out of the exit, and then you can see the Hollywood Avenue in front of you, completely changing.
Resisting the urge to walk around the two channels, Gavin refocused himself on his job, walked out of the channel, and saw a completely different world
In the center is a red carpet about the width of a single lane; the streets on both sides are full of gravel, building wreckage and scrapped cars, which is completely a war ruin. Even the exterior walls of the buildings on both sides are hung with corresponding curtains to cover the building and completely create a battlefield.
Fully armed soldiers were patrolling the ruins, surrounded by bustling crowds, but all the soldiers had serious expressions and sharp eyes, without any slackness. The solemn and desolate atmosphere of war gradually spread out, so that the onlookers had to slightly distance.
At the end of the red carpet, a broken robot lying on the ground, as if it had just been destroyed.
Audiences who have watched the trailer of "Edge of Tomorrow" can immediately recognize that this is the Alpha in the movie, a powerful alien; and there are fragments of helicopters and tanks next to its corpse, and a group of soldiers are waiting. The railings are not raised next to the model, and the curious audience walked in directly and the soldiers are not stopped.
Now, everyone suddenly became lively, and they all looked forward, and even bold ones climbed up the model, drilled into Alpha's head, and observed all the details curiously.
What does this mean? This shows that the model is real gun and ammunition, and it really creates a real alpha based on the situation in the movie. It can stand the test.
This is the battlefield on "Edge of Tomorrow", the real battlefield, a future doomsday scene, the scene after a bloody battle. So, the soldiers are always patrolling; so, the black tunnel is the time tunnel; so, the seemingly unordered premiere scene of the chaos, unexpectedly fits the theme.
Not only three black tunnels, but all the soldiers are extras, showing enough dedication and always maintaining the doomsday state in the background of the "Edge of Tomorrow" story, which also makes the atmosphere on the scene become more realistic.
Warner Bros. really moved the battlefield of the future to Hollywood Avenue.
In Hollywood, everyone knows that Warner Bros. has invested more than $150 million in investment works every year. Moreover, Warner Bros. also invested in those low-cost comedy and low-cost horror works invested by Universal Pictures, but the proportion is very small. Their market strategy is to get what you pay for and complete the market with super blockbusters.
In the first decade of the 21st century, Warner Bros. achieved brilliant success and was well deserved to be the number one giant in Hollywood.
However, after entering the second decade, after the two series "Harry Potter" and "Batman Prequel" were completed, facing the aggressive Disney and the acquisition of Marvel, Pixar and Lucasfilm, Disney has become a top tycoon that can compete with Warner. Next, the competition between these two companies will inevitably become the main theme.
But before today, Gavin just had a concept and never had a real feeling. Until now.
This premiere costs at least 20 million US dollars, or even more. Gavin is just a layman, and he can't do it accurately based on his own experience; but he can be sure that Warner Bros. has absolutely no intention of being lenient.
Everyone thinks that "Edge of Tomorrow" is a work that is despised, and its publicity weight is never as good as "Batman Prequel: The Dark Knight Rises"; and it also crashed into a super schedule, which is almost no different from seeking death. Now it seems that such an idea can be overturned.
Gavin stood on the red carpet, a little helpless. Such an experience was really rare. He had no choice but to call a soldier, "Where is the reporter's interview area?" He was on the battlefield and asked this question, Gavin felt a little stupid.
"You can stay anywhere at any time." The soldier replied firmly, "However, when the soldiers are about to come on stage, it is recommended that you leave the middle passage. If you are a reporter, there is a temporary shelter in front of you, where you can gather."
Obviously, this is a fully open premiere, with no isolation belt between the red carpet and the audience. Bold, this is really too bold. Although pulling up an isolation belt can't stop a fanatical audience at all, at least it has drawn a boundary. Now, even this boundary is gone, truly interpreting the chaos of the end of the world to the extreme.
However, Gavin believes that if the audience really gets out of control, these soldiers must be on the task of maintaining order. Still, Warner Bros.'s marketing strategy is admirable.
Looking up, crossing the baffle in front of you, you can vaguely see the inflatable model of the toothless man sitting on the roof of the tall building at the end of the street. Inexplicably, Gavin felt full of joy.
"Hey, Gavin!" When he arrived at the reporter's gathering area, his companions greeted him one after another. The familiar one was Eli Wallach, a reporter from the Seattle Post, and also a loyal supporter of Renli. "I knew you must have come here."
Tonight, two premieres on Hollywood Avenue were unveiled at the same time, which means that every media, every reporter, and even every actor must choose. Because they cannot appear in two occasions at the same time, they can only choose one.
Just talking about connections, "Madagascar 3" has completely exclaimed "Edge of Tomorrow".
In the dubbing lineup, in addition to Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, David Humer (david-shwimmer), Jessica Chastain and others, Will Smith's wife Jada Pinkett Smith, plus the big guys at DreamWorks, the red carpet is definitely not lacking in starlight.
Although Frank Marshall, the producer of "Edge of Tomorrow", is a big shot in the industry and has a close personal relationship with David Finch, Steven Spielberg, Martin Scorses and others; under the super period, "Prometheus" and "Madagascar 3" are definitely stronger opponents.
It can be imagined that tonight's premiere will be extremely difficult for "Edge of Tomorrow".
Gavin chose "Edge of Tomorrow" and Eli also chose "Edge of Tomorrow".
Gavin chuckled, "I have never considered other options. To be honest, I passed by the next door just now, and their formation was very noisy, but..." Without further ado, Gavin just stretched out his right hand, shaking it gently, clearly expressing his meaning: It's not very good.
Then, Gavin raised his head, glanced around, and looked at the attendance of his peers. What is certain is that the top media will definitely attend both premieres. The question is, which premiere will the Ace reporter go to?
"The New York Times" ace Bradley Adams, "Vanity Fair" ace Daisy Lucas, "Empire" ace Ned Muran... The gaze was lightly raised, and Gavin showed a big smile, "God, everything that should be come; it seems... what's going on is coming, too?"
Chapter completed!
