Vol 3 Chapter 208: Qualified Commercial Film

Selina kept her promise and did not take this little girl named Vivienne back, but she did not return to the vampire's place, but went directly to the laboratory of their race name, she wondered what was going on . It happened that Emilia was also inspecting there, so the story about the immortal's ancestor Alexander Kovenus and his three children was revealed one by one in their dialogue.
This is the first time to explain the emergence of vampires and werewolves in a modern sense. Although it is impossible to study, it is really refreshing to the audience.
Then, the difference from the original appeared again. In this story, both the vampire and the werewolf were aware of the blood of the descendants of the third unvarnished son of Alexander Kovenas, and what it meant to them. In fact, whether it is a vampire or a werewolf, in order to solve the problem of being afraid of ultraviolet rays and silver devices, they have thought of countless ways. In modern times, many experiments have been performed by humans.
Because the vampire had a little better luck and a higher level of technology, he discovered the secret from a collateral, and immediately began searching for and hunting down the descendant of the third son, and finally found the little girl Vivian. Although the werewolves were far behind, they had traitors at the vampires, and Klein, who was an traitor, was not very clear about them. So by his means, the little girl and a pair of men and women escaped and were stared at by the werewolf. On the other hand, the vampire responded quickly and sent the best people to hunt, so there was the scene where the movie started.
Selina was in a dilemma when she learned the truth. Temporarily turned to another aspect, returned to the station to find Klein questioning Lucian, when he claimed to have killed Lucian and brought back a piece of leather. Klein naturally denied that the two sides broke up. After collecting some evidence, Selina had to wake Victor in violation of the rules.
But when she woke up, Victor did not appreciate it, nor did she believe her words, and realized that she began to have a feeling for human beings, so she used the excuse to wake up herself in violation of the rules and ordered her to reflect. Playing this role is still the old English play Bill Nye, except Kate. He is the only one who also played this role in the original version, and his acting skills are also unspeakable.
The following plot did not make too many adjustments. Selina did not reflect as Victor ordered, but instead sought evidence. On the other hand, Klein went to see Lucien in private, and after complaining, he decided to launch in advance, so Emilia, one of the three elders, was attacked on the way home, and then died because the blood was unrecoverable—this The next time she died, at least, she wasn't so sleepy. Did not even give a positive.
And Selena was followed by Klein's people, and then returned to the place where Vivian was hidden, and the werewolves followed.
"Hurry up, quickly!" Selina shouted at the little girl, and then she pulled out her two guns to fight the werewolf.
Although the two have initially established trust, the indifferent little girl is seeing the outside world right in front of her. Could not help but be moved. Coupled with the extremely fierce fighting on the other side, he finally made a risky move, secretly crawling on the safety ladder outside, and slipped from the street. However, there were already two werewolves disguised as policemen here. Although the little girl didn't trust them and wanted to run away, how could she escape from the werewolves with her weak ability, so she was caught in exclamation.
Although Selena heard her scream, she was entangled by the werewolf above and couldn't get away, so it was easy to solve them. I can't find a trace after trying to catch up. Helplessly, after inspecting some werewolf corpses, Lucian, who was seriously injured but not dead, was taken back.
With this guy testifying, Victor naturally ceased to doubt, and with the news of Emilia's death, he immediately called for preparations to counterattack. At this point, many details started to be a little messy, and there was no way to do this, after all, the movie was only that long. Adrian just pays attention, and even if the producer's name is not linked, he can't control this, but it can be done so far. After all, it is a commercial film of medium investment scale.
The final battle came, Selena killed all the way, took the lead to enter Lucian's nest, and found Vivian first.
"I'm sorry." The little girl, who had always acted indifferently, finally cried and hugged her tightly and refused to let go.
"It's okay, and no one will hurt you again." Selina once again showed a warm side, holding her constantly comforting, but at the same time a little confused, do not know what to do.
Then Lucian and Klein colluded with him, Lucian wanted to inject blood for himself, and then quickly evolved to counter the swarming vampires, but Klein, who had been exposed, had nowhere to chase him. , So they met in this situation.
Immediately afterwards, Klein suddenly pulled out a gun loaded with silver nitrate bullets and opened fire on Lucian. Lucian had no idea at all and immediately fell to the ground. Klein was relieved, as long as he took his head back, I believe Victor will forgive him, and of course the little girl.
Naturally, Selena would not give him Vivian, and they did not agree. The two immediately started to fight again. Although Klein was not Selena's opponent, she was vicious and attacked Vivian every time. One accidentally, he was finally taken off by flying, and Vivienne fell into his hands immediately.
The delighted Klein was so proud of them that they mocked them instantly-the villains in the movie are all the same, and "Night Tales" is no exception. Why not let the protagonists come back? But the final puzzle was solved, and the love between Lucian and Victor's daughter Sonia was exposed. This bunch of dog blood must also be sprinkled. As one of the important supporting roles, this kind of dog blood is actually full of suitable.
At the same time, Klein also explained why Victor adopted Selena. She looks similar to Sonia, which indirectly explains why Lucian let her go twice.
"Don't he kill my family?" The shocked Selena asked another question involuntarily.
"Of course not. It was Victor, poor little girl who killed your family." Klein laughed, like all the villains, and looked so embarrassed that he was immediately revenge.
The paralyzed Lucian suddenly broke a leg and interrupted one of his legs. The furious Klein grabbed Vivien in his hands and beat him out, and the little girl rolled to the ground in pain. This immediately angered Selena, roared, picked up the weapon on the ground, and leaped high. Klein was instantly killed.
Then, Vivian, who was lying on the ground, moaned in pain, and when Klein threw her onto Lucian, Lucian's teeth scratched her arm. Werewolves have no women, because women can't bear that violent power, so the women who have been bitten by werewolves are dead, and Vivian is so small, naturally more unbearable.
"Bite her ..." dying Lucian called now. "She is the last direct descendant of Corvinus ... she can combine the blood of two races ..."
When nothing could be done, Selena bit Vivienne, which also put the last straw for her break with Victor. When the elder came in with his hands and learned of Vivian's condition, he ordered that she must be killed, and he absolutely did not allow this to happen. So merciless. Coupled with Selena's repeated inquiry about the truth, the conflict between the two can no longer be avoided.
This final fight was different from the previous one. Victor and Selina both used long swords in retro style. In the crisp clashes, they showed a lot of vampire elegance. of course. In this case, the situation did not last long. After all, Victor was the three elders and an old ghost who had lived for thousands of years. Selena couldn't let go of her under the power of her, and was beaten back and forth. .
But as soon as she saw Vivian, who was still very weak, she kept dodging from others, her anger filled her chest. After taking Victor's sword, he jumped over and slain those guys. But Victor, who followed her, also pierced her shoulder with a sword. At the moment of life and death, Vivian suddenly burst out beside him, letting Victor divide for a few seconds, and Selina seized the opportunity to sword. Pierced his heart.
It was all over, Selena looked at Vivienne, and finally asked, "Will you follow me?"
"Will you protect me?" Vivienne asked back.
The film finally came to an end. Of course, some follow-up clues for the preparation of the second part are still to be left, such as waking up the room, the blood of the killed guy seeps down, flows into Marcus's coffin, or there is no Lucian The body, and Victor, were just pierced through the heart. In previous lives, both roles were very popular, so under Adrian's intervention, they were retained in this way for the time being.
If the film is successful and their characters are indeed popular, there is no doubt that it will be resurrected in the sequel. So what is the film like? The box office can answer-The new line contacted almost 2,500 theater lines for "Night Tales", and then received $ 29 million in North America in the first week.
It's a great start for this medium-investment commercial movie. Generally, as long as the first four numbers at the box office in the first week are similar to the first four numbers at the theater, then this film has great potential Diggable.
It has been modified, coupled with a lot of publicity, and a gimmick for the first movie that showed a trailer on utube, and several commercial films that Adrian arranged for Kate around the millennium. For example, "Agent Belle" or "Tomb Raider" is basically a work of unique style, so she has higher commercial value, and it is normal to have such a result.
At the same time, almost half of the critics in various media commented that it was OK.
"As a commercial film, Underworld is undoubtedly qualified. It not only subverts the story of traditional vampires and werewolves, but also boldly innovates. The modern Gothic style makes the film look very fashionable and the plot The arrangement was very convincing, the director found a perfect balance between horror and action movies, and Kate Beckinsale's performance was also amazing. Although she was cold with a face most of the time, Every time my expression changes, it's very impressive, "said one film critic.
Of course, comments such as "Stupid movie is like a role-playing customs clearance game", "The extent to which the war between vampires and werewolves are just gangsters" and so on. The score on imdb is only 7 and the freshness on rotten tomatoes is only about 55%.
But in the eyes of ordinary people, this is a great movie. Besides, the freshness on the Rotten Tomatoes website is only 55%, but the audience likes it 89%. Vampire culture is still very much sought after in the West, coupled with starring "Laura", skinny leather clothes and modern Gothic style have also fascinated a large number of people.
"If Laura is wild, lively, and proud, then Selena is cold, glam, and only affectionate to those who deserve care, of course. They are all elegant and very charming. "A netizen's message is the voice of most people.
Moreover, both critics-including critics and praisers-and ordinary people think that Selena watching Vivian in her sleep is the most emotional part of the movie. , Especially those critical critics, have said that this shot barely helped make this vulgar movie not so vulgar.
Dakota has also gained popularity, either because she is too young, or because the role can easily make people feel compassion. Even those critics didn't blame her too much, so that Vivian's role became the only one in the whole movie that got 99% approval.
Of course, if it is really popular, Kate is the highest. She is the first protagonist, and the removal of the actor is also to highlight her better. The image of tight-fitting black leather jacket and trench coat has become her synonym like Laura.
"Look, dear, it's pretty good." Adrian said with a data tape while joking with her and her daughter on the weekend, "Right?"
This sentence has been spoken to Lily since. The little guy sighed after reading the newspaper carefully for a while, "I think I missed something."
"Oh?" Adrian raised an eyebrow.
"I'm thinking," the daughter looked at her mother holding her face, "If the character is me, it should be fine."
"Why, you want to be an actor too?" Adrian looked surprised.
"No, but I think ..." Lily thought over her head. "If it appears in front of the camera with my mother ... if I play Vivian and my mother ... it must be cool!"
Looking at her daughter's whimsical appearance, Adrian shrugged and didn't plan to say anything. When the little guy first started dismantling DV, he thought she would be a scientist in the future, and when the little guy led her sisters to make a mess When the chicken jumped, he thought she could be a leader in the future, now ... well. It's okay, she's still young. In the future, there will be time to adjust her thoughts. No matter what the little guy does in the future, it's her own business. She just needs to be a bystander and carefully guard her.
"It looks like the sequel is a sure thing." Adrian said to Kate again after the little guy ran to play.
"It's still early, maybe next week they won't be interested in ... in black skinny leather clothes." Kate shrugged.
"It doesn't matter, as long as I'm still interested." Adrian said with a smile, and Kate glared immediately without saying a word.
Adrian didn't care. Anyway, as long as the current box office situation continues, the sequel will not run. If it is good, the corresponding peripherals, such as comics, character models, games, etc., will also be on the agenda.
So he turned to another topic: "Yes, dear, there is a script I think you can consider, not mine, and the background setting is a bit messy, and the investment required is very high. If you are not careful, it is easy Cause losses, but ... I hope you can take over. "
"Oh? Why?" Kate was immediately curious.
"Because I can almost outline what you look like in it, oh, that's really charming." Adrian said in a sigh of exaggeration.
After a moment's thinking, Kate knew what he was talking about and immediately gave him a stern glance, but she couldn't help but ask, "What is it?"
"You know, Universal has produced many horror movies before, and has a lot of classic monster images, such as Frankenstein. This time they want to focus these monsters in a movie and look for Stephen Somo. Slane was the director and producer ... "Adrian introduced immediately.
There is no doubt that this film is the "Fan Haixin" from the monster monster stew in the previous life ~ EbookFREE.me ~ According to the track of the previous life, this film should have been launched long ago, but the development of Universal in the past few years , The amazing superhero series made them a lot of money, although some producers have this idea, but did not act. But Sommers, who took over, talked about the top management of Global, and made them think that there was still potential to be tapped, so he put it on the agenda at this time.
Adrian still knows what happened to "Fan Haixin" in the previous life, but he doesn't plan to intervene too much, just like the sequel of "The Legend of Night" and the sequel of "X-Men". Teach them what to do. Besides, although the box office of "Fan Haixin" in the previous life was average, the DVD and video cassettes were sold very well. The sales in North America were almost the same as the box office for some time. It can be seen that the quality of the movie should not be a big problem. Something went wrong.
After the acquisition of Universal by the media, the company has rectified a lot in this area. Some of the talents trained by Bosworth have dug up a few good talents. The current distribution capabilities of Universal are different from those of the past. A few words, I believe it should be better than the original, so Adrian's attention is more on the heroine.
Laura Crowe has already gone to his bed. Selena, the most mysterious, most elegant and most fashionable female vampire, is also approaching soon. Can Princess Anna, who is full of classical temperament, escape? (To be continued)
