Vol 2 Chapter 444: Not just movies

"The Battle of Helm Valley is over, and the war in Middle-earth is about to begin!"
Following Gandalf's lines of succession, the subtitles slowly fell, and "The Two Towers" came to an end.
There was no accident, the applause suddenly remembered, converging into a thunder, the thunder continued endlessly, and finally turned into a turbulent wave of worship. Thousands of spectators stood in the theater, all without the intention of leaving, just clapping their hands vigorously.
Brad Miller has long become a die-hard fan of the movie version, and all the thoughts of protest have been thrown out of the sky; Clichy's eyes are wet, and it seems that he has not escaped the emotion brought by the film...
But these people with different reactions all feel that they have gone through a strange journey. If "The Fellowship of the Ring" brings fantasy, then "The Two Towers" is majestic!
"I want to correct a little!" Pete said to the applause. "Duke's ability to create epic war scenes is definitely not the best in Hollywood, but the top!"
Clichy and Brad Miller also nodded in applause.
At the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, the applause has lasted for the entire subtitles. Even if the subtitles are exhausted, there is still no stopping the posture. Duke led the crew to the curtain call again and again, but the audience responded with more enthusiastic applause. Those who have the Authorized reporters quickly pressed the camera shutter and faithfully recorded every moment.
"In the last ten minutes or so, everyone stood and watched!" Javits sighed with emotion. "I have attended film premieres at least fifty times, and I have never seen such a scene!"
"I think this is normal!" Downey said naturally, "If you don't stand up and pay tribute to such a movie, then what kind of movie to stand up and pay tribute to?"
At the same time, the two looked at the director who led the crew on stage. The name of the summer king of the other party was definitely not blown out by the media, only the reaction of the audience. I know that "The Two Towers" will inevitably show a sweeping trend in the next few weeks!
"No wonder the big productions of other companies are hiding "The Two Towers."
Another reporter next to him came over and said, "Those film company executives are not stupid at all. What kind of film is needed to fight against such an epic masterpiece?"
"Do you think it will be the box office champion this year?" Downey asked.
The man thought for a while and said, "It's hard to tell. After all, there is Lucas' Star Wars."
"I don't think "Attack of the Clones" can fight "The Two Towers". Jarvis interjected, "The audience's reputation of "The Two Towers" will definitely burst, and the Star Wars Prequel..."
Having said that, he couldn't help shook his head.
If it weren't for the name of Star Wars, "The Phantom Threat" would probably hit the streets.
The applause finally subsided, and Duke led the crew to the press conference hall, and there was a press conference waiting for him.
Duke went to the press conference, Ivanka and Jane Lauder left the Chinese Grand Theater first, got in the car and waited for Duke to come out.
"Evie. I think you are very excited." Jane Lauder closed the car door and leaned next to Ivanka. "Are you a non-movie fan also moved by the movie?"
"Did you see those people in the cinema?" Ivanka opened the small refrigerator in the RV, took out two bottles of water, and handed a bottle to Jane Lauder. "How many people can keep calm?"
She smiled, "I am happy for Duke. He has made another great movie."
There is a big director as a boyfriend, Ivanka can not not pay attention to Hollywood and film circles. The audience response at the premiere was so enthusiastic, she knew very well what it meant.
A large number of movie fans rushed out of the theater, Brad Miller was a little older after all, and soon recovered his calm, just the way he walked. What I saw and heard was almost the fanatical reaction of fans.
A boy who was about fifteen years old yelled, "for.eorlingas!"
"For.eorlingas!"
A slightly immature response sounded around.
If twenty years younger. He believed that he would yell out with these people.
"Are you going home?"
Clichy’s question came from nearby, "Don’t watch it again? I just got excited, and many details were ignored."
"You go ahead." Brad Miller looked at his watch, "I have an important video conference in the early hours of the morning, and I can't continue. But I have reserved a ticket for tomorrow, and I will probably do it again tomorrow night."
His companion Pete stopped and chose to be a rebel, "Sorry, Bly, you can only go back by yourself. I will go to see the midnight scene with Clichy."
"It's ok."
Brad Miller walked forward following the flow of people. When passing by the ticket office, he found that many people who had just walked out of the theater had joined the queue to buy tickets...
Forcibly resisting the desire to do it again, Brad Miller walked out of the theater, but before he reached the parking lot, there was a familiar sound of footsteps behind him. When they looked back, Pete and Kerry Xi strode to catch up.
"Why did you come out?" Brad Miller was a little strange.
With a helpless expression on his face, Chrissy walked over and said, "No way, I can't buy tickets."
Pete was a little downcast, and said dissatisfied, "The theater opened two midnight theaters, but there are no tickets!"
"Then we can come together again tomorrow."
Santa Monica Plaza is one of the commercial centers in the greater Los Angeles area. Although it is not as concentrated as the San Francisco Bay area, it is also a densely populated area.
Sitting in the shop manager's room, Miranda Kerr looked through the glass window, watching the busy scene outside, in a daze.
Miranda Kerr came to North America only last month. To be more precise, she was seduced by that Edward Yang, who had an extraordinary family background and a generous shot, claiming to help her break into Hollywood or enter the North American model circle. And when she came here, she did see that the other party had a certain relationship network, and she seemed to be able to talk in the Duke's studio.
Although she grew up in the modeling circle since she was a child, Miranda Kerr also understands some basic market laws. For a new store like this that has not been publicized on a large scale, the popularity should be very general when it opened, or even a little deserted. However, the crowded scene in the store broke her inherent cognition.
Half an hour ago, a large number of people from the nearby theater flooded into the store like waves. They were like locusts crossing the border, harvesting every product on the shelves frantically. Those products Miranda? Ke Er listen Edward Yang mentioned that they are all peripheral products related to the Lord of the Rings movie!
Those purchasers were completely irrational. It seemed that these things cost no money. She could see clearly that several people even maxed out their credit cards.
Especially the expensive Lord of the Rings jewellery that she and Edward Yang brought up from the Lord of the Rings studio. In just half an hour, ten suits worth 3,999 US dollars sold out quickly, which is simply staggering. Up!
Why it came out like this?
As a model with a relatively monotonous life, Miranda Kerr doesn’t quite understand the behavior of these people. Not to mention that the movies-related products are expensive, and the actual application value is basically zero...
A movie can make so many people lose their minds? She is curious, how exciting this movie must be to make movie-related products so popular?
The door of the shopkeeper's room was pushed open from the outside, and Edward Yang walked in and sat on the sofa to breathe hard, seeming to be exhausted.
This is where Miranda Kerr admires him. Although Edward Yang has the common problems of most of the rich children, he is a hardworking and motivated person.
Edward saw Miranda Kerr looking outside curiously, and said, "Don't be surprised, every time a new Duke movie is released, our store will have a sales peak."
"Sales peak?" Miranda Kerr turned her head, looked at Edward Yang, and asked, "Can you know how many goods were sold?"
Without waiting for the other person to answer, she said again, "If it is not convenient, then forget it."
"It's okay." Edward Yang recalled for a moment, and said, "When I came in, the sales had exceeded $130,000!"
Miranda Kerr's eyes widened immediately, "It's just a movie-related product that sold for $130,000 in less than forty minutes?"
"bingo!"
Edward Yang snapped his fingers, "Some popular items will be sold out soon."
"What kind of movie is it, Edward," Miranda Kerr's curiosity grew stronger. "Can you make people so crazy?"
"Duke Rosenberg's movie!" Edward Yang Yanzhi said categorically, "His movie will drive many people crazy!"
Miranda Kerr suddenly wanted to see this movie. She had never wanted to see a movie so strongly.
She was not the only one who wanted to watch this film. Norman Shearer missed the early and midnight scenes of the film because of the company's forced overtime. After returning home from get off work, she immediately turned on the computer and entered Duke's Personal website, want to see the response of the video first.
"The connection with the first film is very good, the rhythm of the whole film is also very tight, the editing is also great, and the feeling is all in one go. The excellent visual effects and soundtrack show the majestic atmosphere of the epic, such a long film can not be felt at all. It feels like it's over from the beginning."
"The beautiful and picturesque scenery, the grand war scenes, the delicate emotions of the characters, and the strong unyielding spirit. This is definitely the best gift Duke gives to all fans!"
"The epic scene makes blood boil, except for tears or tears!"
"Arwen and Legolas continue to be stunningly beautiful. Duke really made another world, not just a movie!"
""The Two Towers" is the best movie for me, completely surpassing "The Fellowship of the Ring Expedition", especially the epic war scenes in the second half are so exciting."
Seeing the praise that almost maxed out the message board, Norman Shearer decided to watch the film early tomorrow morning! (To be continued...)
