"This is the hottest day in the United States since 2001. The NBC TV station sent you a live report at Raymond James Stadium in Tampa, Florida. Now the second quarter of the game has just ended, but this Super Bowl has already Destined to be written into history..."
In the living room of the Duke’s Manor, Duke was sitting in front of the TV, waiting patiently, Tina Fei came over with a pot of black tea, "Is halftime coming?"
"It's about to start." Duke took the black tea from her, "Thank you."
Tina Fei is sitting on the solo sofa next to her. She is not interested in the game itself. "It is said that Britney Spears will perform in the midfield."
"Do you like her very much?" Duke was a little strange.
Following him, Tina Fei has seen the other side behind the halo of countless big stars, how could she like a youth idol.
"Don't you know?" Tina Fei thought for a while, confirmed that she had not mentioned to Duke, and then said, "Britney is considered by many to be the next Madonna, the hottest young singer today, Nancy And Caa’s Eno Martin is currently digging her."
Duke nodded. There is no doubt about the value of Britney Spears. It is the most popular stage now, and it must be a hot commodity for the brokerage company.
However, with Xiao Tiantian's bad emotional intelligence, I don't know which company he will choose in the end?
On the TV, the midfield ad hasn’t started yet, and the sports commentator continues to talk,
In the first two quarters, the Ravens’ defensive team completely prevailed. The Giants only advanced a poor 71 yards and 5 Forced to concede the ball twice and was sacked 4 times! The most incredible thing is that the offensive team of the two teams performed very well at one time. They completed 3 touchdowns in 36 seconds. Breaking the shortest time to complete the most touchdowns Record..."
Also sitting in front of the TV, Norman Shearer was pouring beer, quietly waiting for Hollywood, which belongs to the advertising period of the movie trailer.
Although she was waiting, Shearer's brows kept frowning.
He likes movies in Duke Rosenberg format, especially the "The Matrix" series. In recent years, I have been looking forward to seeing the sequel, but I can only wait hard, because the director who created the super science fiction classic went to New Zealand to produce the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy.
"The Lord of the Rings" is a work that many directors dare not touch!
As Shearer was thinking about it, the advertising time finally arrived. First, it was a series of product advertisements, and then it was Hollywood time, such as "Pearl Harbor", "Shrek", "Tomb Raider", "Fast and Furious", etc. The films screened during the summer season have appeared one by one, and even "Monsters Electric Company" and "Beautiful Mind", which will only be released during the Thanksgiving Christmas file, have released short trailers.
Isn’t "Lord of the Rings" going to be advertised in the Super Bowl? Hiller's brow furrowed tighter.
The release time of "The Fellowship of the Ring" has long been announced. One weekend before Memorial Day, which was selected in the summer, Duke’s movies were not only the pioneer of Hollywood Super Bowl advertising time, but in the following years, his movies were always released in the summer, and they never missed the super During the halftime ad time of the Bowl, they, like Duke fans, are also used to waiting for a break in the Super Bowl. Watch the first trailer.
Waiting until the end of the Hollywood advertising time, Shearer finally saw the picture she wanted to watch. In the raging flames, a huge metal glove with an unusually evil appearance was wearing a golden ring, which also had inscriptions on it that he could not understand.
A female voice full of magnetism sounded, "The Supreme Lord of the Rings, dominate the rings!"
After a few shots showing the Lord of the Rings. The picture became darker and darker. In the dark tones, countless armies marched towards the volcano ahead. These are two well-equipped armies, even if they have not read the original. From their appearance, Hiller could easily tell that they were humans and elves!
Then, the picture shifted to the front of the elves and human coalition forces, and a larger army rushed over the mountains and plains. The picture got closer and closer, and the close-up shots began to appear, ugly, evil, dirty...
That's a half-orc! They opened their mouths and showed their sharp teeth, rushing towards the coalition army, as if they were about to eat everyone!
However, what greeted them was a dense rain of arrows!
"God, their armor and weapons are so beautiful!"
When the camera zoomed in front of the elves' formation, Shearer's eyes widened in an instant. A large number of elven warriors bent their bows and shot long arrows, and countless half-orcs fell to the ground.
The picture slowly zoomed out and turned into a panoramic shot again. The number of people fighting on both sides is innumerable. There is no end to the huge battlefield, and fierce battles are being fought everywhere...
"Oh, my! Oh, my..."
Shearer no longer knows what to say. He has been a fan for ten years. He has watched countless films. Among them, the drama about war is even more unknown. The epic masterpiece is the "Gladiator" released last summer. "After watching the opening war scene of this movie at that time, he thought it was fierce enough and grandiose enough, but compared with the half-orcs and the coalition of humans and elves in this trailer, it was simply weak!
In terms of the battlefield scene and intensity, as well as the large-scale panoramic display, the trailer of "The Fellowship of the Ring" can throw out the 20 streets of "Gladiator"!
What a magnificent epic picture!
But this is only a thirty-second trailer. Shearer's emotions have just been mobilized, and the trailer has come to an end.
It was still the golden ring, which seemed to have vitality, drilled towards the bottom of the river, and the magnetic female voice sounded again.
"Some things that shouldn't be forgotten turned into dust, history became legends, legends spread as myths, the Lord of the Rings has been waiting quietly..."
The last is the release time of the film.
"The Lord of the Rings has been waiting quietly..." Shearer said to himself, "Yes, the Lord of the Rings has been waiting, waiting for a suitable director to turn it into a great movie!"
He sat for a while, before turning off the TV, "I want to start waiting too!"
At this moment, Norman Shearer, like many people who saw the trailer, temporarily put aside his obsession with "The Matrix" and decided to wait for a magical epic called "The Fellowship of the Ring" In theaters!
Those who support Duke are waiting for the trailer, and those who oppose Duke are also waiting for the trailer.
As a die-hard book fan who actively advocated protests since the filming of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, Brad Miller sat in front of the TV early, and even the support of the New York Giants was suppressed by the Ravens. I don't care, I just want to see what the the director who is famous all over the world for creating explosions and destroying the earth will make his "Lord of the Rings" look like.
The Lord of the Rings, wars, humans, elves, half-orcs...appeared on the TV screen one by one. In just thirty seconds, Brad Miller went from initial disdain to wide-eyed, once in his mind He imagined countless battles between humans and the elves in the final alliance, and it was so truly displayed before his eyes. The picture in front of him was even a thousand times more real, magnificent, and majestic than what he had previously imagined!
Brad Miller's eyes are a little red, and only the Lord of the Rings fan can understand his mood at the moment. That is excitement, that is the excitement of a dream come true!
After all, he has a lot of experience. As soon as the trailer ended, he thought of countless literary works destroyed by Hollywood. The agitation in his heart gradually calmed down, and the whole person recovered his calm.
However, even Brad Miller himself did not realize that he was full of longing in his heart, longing for the weekend before Memorial Day to come quickly, and he wanted to see what the movie version of "Lord of the Rings" looked like.
Is it as sophisticated as the trailer, as magical, as epic, or is it turned into a mess!
In an office building on Wisher Avenue in Beverly Hills, the Artist Management Company did not have a holiday on Super Bowl Day. For Michael Ovitz, who has regrouped, although it has been digging from caa, icm and William Morris one after another. Many customers, but compared to these big companies in the entertainment brokerage industry, the artist management company is just a newcomer, and every second is extremely precious to the company.
Of course, as a company whose main business is in Hollywood, Michael Ovitz also watched the Super Bowl midfield commercials. Two films he packaged were released in this summer, even though there was no real strong competitor in the same weekend. Looking at the entire summer file, it can be said that all major productions that are released are in competition with his projects.
To be the winner of the summer vacation, not only do you have to be yourself, but it is also necessary to understand your competitors.
For the summer file, "Fast and Furious" is just a small, humble production, and Michael Ovitz did not plan to invest too much resources in it. The focus of the artist management company in the summer file is Michael Bay’s. "Pearl Harbor".
The post-production of this masterpiece of war has not yet been completed, but after seeing the trailer produced by Michael Bey, Ovitz nodded with satisfaction. The trailer is definitely hot enough and fits the summer movie viewing atmosphere. , Especially the spiral bomb perspective imitated from "Break into Death Island", it has the momentum to completely overwhelm Duke Rosenberg.
After watching the trailer of "Pearl Harbor", Michael Ovitz's mood has improved a lot, but seeing the trailer of "The Lord of the Rings" that appeared last, his mood just changed and fell into a trough...
What a magnificent war scene!
Michael Ovitz has read the original work. Tolkien did not describe the battle between humans and the elven alliance under the Doomsday Volcano in too much detail, and the picture shown in the trailer almost makes the soul tremble!
As a veteran in the industry, Michael Ovitz remembers very clearly that there has never been such a huge and complex cold weapon war scene in the history of Hollywood epic films!
Duke Rosenberg deserves to be Duke Rosenberg.
He can only feel so emotional. (To be continued...)
