MTL - Heads Up Hollywood-Chapter 96 in charge of acting

Of course Dunn knows the name of Jessica Alba, not only the memory of the past life, but also a list of actors sent by Eli Emanuel some time ago.

Endeavor is a newly established agency. Although Eli Emanuel has male stars such as Robert Deloney, Mel Gibson, Matt Damon, Daniel Washington, etc., there are very few female stars. , currently only Charlize Theron barely holds the facade.

That's why Eli Emanuel seized the opportunity to make friends with Dunn, hoping to create a popular female star with the help of his movies.

After hearing about the "Spider-Man" movie project, Eli Emanuel provided Dunn with a list of potential actresses that he carefully selected.

In the list, there are many names that Dunn is familiar with, including names such as Sienna Miller, Scarlett Johansson, and Jessica Alba mentioned by James Cameron.

"A character who sells favors twice, this business is quite profitable!"

Tang En rolled his eyes and immediately laughed, "Okay, you give her time to visit our company. If there is no problem, she will be the number one girl!"

This time, Cameron was embarrassed, "Dawn, is this...too sloppy?"

"Haha, James, we are old friends!" Tang En patted his shoulder with a smile, walked towards the screening room, and suddenly thought of something, "By the way, did you invite her to today's premiere? "

Cameron looked at him warily.

"It's better to hit the sun today. Maybe tonight, the heroine can be given." Tang En smiled brightly and made no secret of it, "Are you right, James?"

Cameron frowned slightly, opened his mouth, but hesitated.

In such a big environment, what can he do?

……

As night fell, the red carpet outside the AMC theater in Times Square was empty, and only the security guards were still on guard.

In the screening hall of the AMC theater, all seats were full. The crew and invited guests of "Star Wars Episode 1: The Menace of the Phantom Man" sat at the front, with the critics and media people in the middle, and the lucky fans at the end.

After a brief ceremony, the auditorium finally quieted down.

The opening animation of Twentieth Century Fox appeared on the big screen with soul-stirring sound effects.

"A long, long time ago, in a distant galaxy..."

With the opening of a classic that has set off countless memories, in the symphony of ups and downs, "Star Wars Episode 1: The Menace of the Ghost Man" officially begins!

In the screening hall, the fans held their breaths, their eyes fixed on the big screen, not wanting to miss a single shot.

Cameron is also attentive, because he knows that this movie is likely to be an epoch-making special effects craft!

In the vast universe, a spaceship with a domineering shape crossed the night sky and flew to the blue planet.

The audience in the back row couldn't help but let out a burst of amazement. This spaceship is too real, and the magnificent and dazzling stars of the universe are so clear and real that they seem to have seen it with their own eyes.

For this scene alone, many professionals couldn't help but nod their heads in admiration.

Sure enough, times have changed. Sixteen years later, in Star Wars, special effects technology has developed by leaps and bounds, and the picture is obviously more realistic and better.

With the landing of the spaceship, the plot of the movie gradually unfolds.

The dark side of the Force has brewed up a new evil organization and started subversive activities, the powerful trade federation, the peaceful Naboo planet, and the queen Amidala who wants to hijack Naboo planet, forcing her to sign an agreement, Thereby establishing the legalization of federal action for trade.

When the Jedi Elders heard the news, they took it seriously and immediately dispatched two elite Jedi Knights - Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan.

Cameron, who was watching the movie seriously, was stunned for a moment after seeing the two Jedi Knights starring Liam Neeson and Ben Affleck. He smiled bitterly, shook his head, lowered his voice, and said to Dunn beside him: "Poor acting skills. Come on, let's dance."

Tang En sighed and whispered: "At least their images show the spirit of warriors. James, you may not know much about it, George... He's old."

old?

A meaningful word, obviously made Cameron understand a lot.

Although Dunn is the director of the film, I am afraid that he was greatly restricted during the filming process. This is completely different from when he was filming "Titanic", when the two cooperated sincerely and put aside contradictions and created classics for the film.

"Pity."

Cameron shook his head and did not continue to discuss. His attention to the movie was obviously not as careful as before.

With the changes of the screen, the deepening of the story, and the overall context of the film, it has been presented to everyone.

Many critics frowned.

The plot is a bit simple. After reading the beginning, I basically guessed the ending.

However, the fans watched with great interest. The Jedi Knight took Queen Amidala to escape from the planet Naboo, was attacked by artillery fire, and was forced to dock on the desert planet.

Here, Qui-Gon discovers the prophesied "balance" - Anakin Skywalker.

Then, with the help of Anakin, the spacecraft was repaired, and Quigan and his party returned to the capital of the Republic with Queen Amidala.

The next episode, after being screened and reduced by Tang En, became much more compact.

Queen Amidala unsuccessfully sought the support of the Parliament and impeached the Supreme Speaker. However, the newly elected Speaker also had no idea of ​​sending troops to the planet Naboo.

In desperation, Queen Amidala abruptly decided to return to the planet Naboo by herself to resist the foreign invaders.

"I am the queen of the planet Naboo. I will never abandon my people and live alone here! If you live, you will live together! If you die, you will die together! Padmé Amidala belongs to the planet Naboo!"

The young Natalie's acting skills were still very young, but under the guidance of Dunn and his assistant director, she keenly captured Queen Amidala's mood at the moment. The brightest star on the screen.

"Natalie is so beautiful!"

The fans in the back row were full of admiration.

"Natalie's performance passed the test."

The film critic in the middle wrote this sentence in his notebook.

"Your little girlfriend is the acting person of the whole movie."

James Cameron in the front row whispered to Dunn again.

There was a touch of pride on Dunn's face, "Of course, in my heart, Nat is the best!"

Cameron smiled and looked very solemn, "A very good girl, I will choose to cooperate with her if I have the opportunity."

Dunn is a little funny. Of course he understands that Cameron is giving his favor and rewarding him, thanking him for supporting Jessica Alba.

But selfishness turns into selfishness, Natalie is definitely the best performer in the whole movie, whether it's Dunn's version or the original one.

Originally, in the director's cut version, Dunn reserved enough scenes for Natalie, but it was later cut by Lucas. He would rather keep some younger jokes and the cuteness of animated characters, which are considered ridiculous by film critics and professionals, rather than present more wonderful performances.

Rao is like this~www.novelbuddy.com~ Queen Amidala, played by Natalie, still overshadows the two Jedi knights.

In particular, the several sets of shots that persuaded the people of Yuzeganga showed the spirit of seeing death vividly. It's hard to imagine that such a petite body can burst out such a powerful force.

And Liam Neeson and Ben Affleck in the background version are really unbearable to look at.

Finally, with the efforts of Queen Amidala, the Ganga agreed to form an alliance to jointly deal with the robot army of the Trade Union.

The big climax is coming!

The film critics were a little surprised. Looking at the time, they were a little astonished.

The Hollywood film industry is already in an assembly line mode, and the control of rhythm has been accurate to every minute.

And Dunn's movie...

It seems that the rhythm is not right.

It tells the story of entering the third stage, the villain's strength is too great, when everything seems hopeless, the protagonist finds hope, starts to fight back, and reaches the final climax "joint" part.

It's just that Dunn's Star Wars... seems to have advanced the rhythm.

According to the pre-announced length of the movie, the movie still has at least 40 minutes to end.

Does the climax last forty minutes?

The film critics looked at each other in dismay, and some couldn't believe it.

What is Dunn doing?

If you mobilize the audience's hormones for too long, once you don't get it right, you won't be able to arouse the audience's sense of substitution and resonance!

James Cameron narrowed his eyes into a line and glanced at Dunn beside him, thoughtfully.

"He wants to save this obviously problematic movie through the last wave of continuous visual shocks. It's a good idea, but... can it work?"
