Chapter 124: film history first
Because of this kind of thing, playing is amazing!
With the passage of time, the special effects technology has become more mature, and the plot structure can be more complete, but the problem is that there will be more and more guys competing with you, and after accepting the constant baptism of the same type of movies, what do you think about this movie? Movies, the immunity of this kind of plot will gradually increase, want to show surprise and shock like seeing a dinosaur for the first time?
Unrealistic…
When you already have realistic memory in your head, unless it is IMAX-3D like "Avatar", otherwise...
That\'s it.
To put it bluntly, the first person to eat crabs may not earn the most, but he will always be the most remembered by the public. "HA" is, "T2" is also, and "Jurassic Park" is even more so. Based on the two movies with the significance of the times, Roland on the screen can completely ignore the process of being remembered by the audience, and directly enter the growth of "this child is already sensible".
He is no longer that mischievous, willful kid, but an adult who knows how to protect the weak.
This kind of growth visible to the naked eye is what Roland needs most, and the plot of the movie is helping him achieve this goal.
Because of this, the more ferocious the Tyrannosaurus rex behaved, the more frightened the younger sister was, and the more selfless Roland acted, the stronger the excitement would be. The heart jumped to the throat immediately, and at this moment, the sudden appearance of the doctor driving the car attracted the attention of the Tyrannosaurus rex, and at the same time, the Triceratops that had been favored before also "inexplicably" killed the two little guys Throwing it on my body, I saw the wrong Tyrannosaurus rex roaring, and took a step to catch up. Under the gaze of everyone, a scene of you chasing after me from the temple appeared on the screen. When the Tyrannosaurus rex was exhausted, it took the initiative After giving up, the victory of \'beating\' the dinosaurs made everyone at the scene heave a sigh of relief, and many people even found that they were actually sweating...
"Whoa! This is the coolest movie I\'ve ever seen in my life! Too bad the music wasn\'t right for the T-Rex chase! Maybe it would have been better with the Indiana Jones entrance music!"
"You idiot! What are you thinking? Why are you describing such a horrific picture? But I think playing "StarWarsTheme" might be more epic..."
"Fart! The Tyrannosaurus rex is obviously the villain, okay? You want to match it with majestic music?"
"For Tyrannosaurus rex? What are you thinking? This is obviously for Triceratops!"
"Oh my god! Did I cry? I\'ve only cried twice in my life in a movie theater! Once it was Jaws! Once it was Star Wars! I thought I wouldn\'t cry anymore when I grew up , I didn’t expect to see a living dinosaur again!”
"Roland and...is that Ashley or Mary? Never mind! They\'re doing really well anyway! It\'s a great movie!"
The aftertaste after the tension is the breathing time Spielberg specially left for everyone.
Or, even if the special effects are not troublesome and the cost of dinosaurs is not too high, the old man will add so many characters in the movie for no other reason than to give the audience enough time to digest.
It is impossible for a work to have unlimited orgasm. The so-called producer-centered system actually uses the most neat format to edit the film out, with 40 minutes, 90 minutes, 120 minutes, etc. as the time period. Intersection, there must be a conflict at each time point. Although this neat editing method has no soul, it is the most commercial editing method. It is the time calculated based on a person\'s mental concentration.
Of course, this kind of editing method is only suitable for ordinary directors. Big guys have their own rhythm, and when the audience knows their names, they will give them enough patience, and chaotic ones like "World War Zombie" even the director edits them. If there is no complete rhythm of the movie, even if the producer has all the hands and eyes, he can only remake it.
In this way, after Roland and the others were saved, the long-delayed water scene reappeared.
\'Stealing embryos\', \'questioning the founder of the park\', \'discovering eggshells left over from dinosaur breeding in the park\', three lines go hand in hand. Although the camera cuts are fancy, the plot is easy to understand, and Spielberg never What kind of dark metaphors are you talking about? After one line is finished, the second one is not only simple, but also easy for adults and children to understand. After the thief who "steals the embryo" is killed by the dinosaur justice from the sky, the story line of the whole movie changes. It became "Roland and his sister and a doctor escaped in the park", "the male and female protagonists who are tool people want to restore the park\'s power and restore the park\'s security".
Dazzling special effects, no martial arts at all, just a long-lasting plot, and the appearance of Velociraptor, Brachiosaurus, Saurosaurus, Dilophosaurus, Gallimimus, and Pterosaurs in turn. In this cycle, the movie Gradually coming to an end: When Roland and the others were stared at by the Tyrannosaurus rex and forced them into the corner, the Triceratops who had saved everyone\'s life before appeared again, and when that bulky body trampled the ground of the park loudly, Ben The short-handed monster who was still interested in Roland turned his head instantly, and cast his eyes on the guy who ruined his good deed earlier. While the two sides looked at each other, the group ran for their lives decisively...
Then, the Tyrannosaurus Rex roared to the sky very handsomely, the Triceratops saw this, turned around and ran away cowardly...
Eh?
You think they can fight?
Roland thought so before!
But after he went to shoot it himself, he realized that he was just dreaming!
Triceratops is a mechanical holster, and Tyrannosaurus rex also has a mechanical holster. It is already very difficult for the staff to get in and control a run. Do you still want them to fight? I drop a tortoise!
In a situation where a fart can kill a group of people, this is more troublesome than a female Ultraman, okay?
Why did Spielberg add the scene where the Tyrannosaurus rex eats the Velociraptor?
Exactly because Velociraptor was made with CGI! It\'s not too easy for this thing to be swept to death by one tail!
And want him to kill the Triceratops?
All the later stages: The courtiers and concubines can\'t do it!
Ever since, in the plot of chasing, fleeing, and gradually going away, the screen also switched. The reborn people boarded the escaped helicopter. In the sound of magnificent music, "Jurassic Park" ended .
Sunset, sea surface.
When a sign like DIRECTEDBYSTEVENSPIELBERG appeared, there was warm applause at the premiere ceremony. The spies from the major film companies, the film critics who had nothing to say about Fuck, the ordinary fans who were hit by luck, those with Mike Moha Mi-like related households, everyone is full of praise for the whole movie.
That’s right, this time it’s not almost…
Because "Jurassic Park" is the only one right now!
"This is so exciting! I can\'t wait to see the movie come out! I\'m going to do a second! Three! Four! I\'m going to see some theaters with my family! If my son knows that dinosaurs are real Appeared! Then he must be too excited to sleep! Oh! And his favorite Roland! I think he will like the scene where Roland protects his sister! Actually, after watching "T2", he told I, myself will be as strong as Roland!"
"This movie is not good! It\'s a pity that the time is too short! How can two hours be enough? At least four hours to start! I haven\'t watched it before it\'s over! It\'s really a pity!"
"Oh, MyGod! Will there be a sequel to this movie? I was wondering what it would be like to fight a Triceratops and a Tyrannosaurus Rex! I didn\'t expect this to disappear? Is it because of insufficient funds? Before Roland and the Olsen sisters Sitting on the triceratops and escaping is very exciting! You can shoot that, why can\'t you shoot the fight?"
Guest audience, don’t expect extravagant logic in the movie. You said that surreal things like dinosaurs have been produced, so what logic is there in the whole movie? It\'s like you\'re pursuing a scientific setting in "The Wandering Earth", the sun is going to be destroyed, and you\'re still beeping about Jupiter\'s slingshot effect, okay? Then you come up with a solution! Don\'t be like the little Swedish girl, I\'m just here to ask questions, as for how to solve them, I don\'t know?
Because of this, no one will worry about why the Triceratops jumped out to save people, or even those film critics think that this is the director Spielberg talking about his own thoughts—
"I think what Steven wants to say is: \'Technology is innocent, and those who are guilty are those who use technology to break the law and those who do not strictly control the use of technology." The Triceratops in the movie is obviously the warmth of technology. The avatar, and Tyrannosaurus rex, are representatives of tyranny. They are two sides of the same thing. If humans make good use of technology, technology will give back more, but if it abuses disorder, technology will punish people in turn..."
"I think the characters played by Roland and the Olsen sisters represent human beings. When facing new technologies, people are nervous and nervous, but after seeing the availability of technology like Triceratops, human beings are on this road. Running wildly all the way, and the Tyrannosaurus rex behind him is the ambition of mankind. Ambition will never catch up with the speed of technological development, but ambition will persevere in following behind, firmly grasping those mature technologies, and then... Profit, or control..."
"No, no, I think Triceratops and Tyrannosaurus rex still talk about humanity and discrimination, herbivory is docile, and carnivore is cruel. This is the nature of animals, and it also implies human nature. Just like Roland\'s instinct to protect his sister, the doctor regretted it in the end... People are born equal. We cannot discriminate against others because of their skin color and gender. The black hands behind the scenes in the movie are white people, and the black administrators have been dedicated to their duties. This is the equality that Steven wants to express most, the kind of equality after abandoning secular concepts... "
For this kind of judgment similar to reading comprehension, you really have nothing to do with the other party.
Just like "there is a strange light in the fish\'s eyes", even the author of the original text said that he wrote it casually, just for the sake of being funny, who knew that his article, which has never taken the college entrance examination, was selected as a question for the college entrance examination up?
Now it is the same!
If Spielberg heard the evaluation of these people, he would definitely laugh secretly in his heart...
\'It really is a group of fools. \'
He just followed Roland\'s idea and kept the first version of the plot. The fundamental purpose was to flatter people.
Regardless of whether it is a close-up of a man and a dinosaur looking at each other, or a mirror cut when he is desperately escaping, all of these are for lining up people, just like "E.T." The appearance of being wrapped in a white gauze scarf is extremely classic, and even the subsequent "Love in the Hawthorn Tree" copied this composition of lining people.
As for what connotation?
He has put all the connotations in the preaching scene of the movie, and all the extensions are just over-interpretation.
But this kind of over-interpretation is actually a good thing, because Roland was attacked by film critics half a year ago, but now, regardless of whether it is because of a good performance or a good set, as long as those guys are willing to write in the newspaper column they cooperate with To praise him is something that the people like to hear and see!
As a result, the day after the premiere, "Empire", "Variety Show", "Washington Post", "New York Times", these important magazines, newspapers and newspapers all published reviews of "Jurassic Park". Movie critics, the kind of amazing picture effects, using the exaggerated words of "living life" to describe dinosaurs, and describing the freeze-frame of Tyrannosaurus rex and Roland with the gaze that spanned thousands of years... That kind of praise that surpasses the past, fans who watched I am very excited.
No way, who made the director + starring role cover fans of all ages?
And after seeing those media blowing water, Roland\'s fans even smiled.
Didn’t you still spray half a year ago? What now? Century looked at this description, they liked it very much!
Of course, no matter how loud the film critics are, it is far less powerful than the words of Spielberg\'s elder brother George Lucas who also participated in the production: ""Jurassic Park" showed me With the advancement and hope of technology, the outline of the story I have written in 1976 may be ready for shooting now. I also look forward to your feedback on this movie, because I really want to move the origin of Skywalker to on screen..."
When this interview video was released, Amerika went up and down and immediately exploded!
Lucas is finally filming a Star Wars origin story?
When was the last Return of the Jedi?
Eighty-three years!
And now?
93!
Ten years! It\'s been ten years!
The immature boy has grown a beard now! Those girls who imitated princess hairstyles are already perfect! Those kids who grew up watching Star Wars are now married and established! And they—
Finally heard about the sequel!
Why don\'t you buy "Jurassic Park" quickly?
When Lucas threw out the final publicity before the film was released, no one in the North American Theater Alliance gave it...
The massacre has begun, and it doesn\'t matter who comes!
On the night of June 10th, the lights shone like daylight.
The gates of the major movie theaters in America are crowded with people, and the water can\'t get through.
Some are wearing dinosaur cultural shirts, some are holding lightsaber blasters, some are carrying small ET schoolbags, some are wearing Santa hats, and some are wearing cowboy whips...
Some people really want to see dinosaurs, some people are purely personal movie fans, some are Star Wars fans, and some people...
When epic series + epic director + epic child star come together, what kind of chemical effect will it produce?
no one knows…
But the market will always give the most loyal feedback!
Three days in the first weekend, with an average of more than 20 million per day, seven days later...
Breaking 100 million!
Breaking through 100 million in the first week!
It is different from the situation in the future where there are theaters all over the place, and it can exceed 100 million on the first day. Seven days is already the fastest!
What an unstoppable "T2"! What Guinness World Records "HA"! What national IP "SW"! What is currently the highest-grossing "E.T." in the world! They all became the dead souls at the feet of ancient creatures!
It exceeded 100 million in the first week, what figure will the global box office eventually fall to?
700 million? 800 million? 900 million? Or a billion?
So far, no film has broken through the billion-dollar mark! But the closest to the record…
Or they...
Well, it’s just two people’s self-entertainment. This is really a sad story.
But even in sadness, for the audience, "Jurassic Park" is a miracle!
“I think I saw God in a movie theater!”
“I only watched it once, and I will continue to watch it. I don’t know what this movie is about. All I can think of now is the scene where Roland and Tyrannosaurus rex look at each other through the window. It’s so handsome!”
"It\'s really hard to buy tickets for this movie. I hope those theaters can also open theaters in small towns, so that I don\'t have to get up early every day and drive to the city. This is really troublesome..."
"You asked me if I like it? Here, here is my ticket stub."
"Who do you like the most? The one who impressed me the most in the whole movie is of course Roland! He makes me feel like Harrison Ford! As long as he is there, it will be a blockbuster! At least it looks good!"
Yes, after a few consecutive high-grossing movies, ah, no, several consecutive movies with sky-high box office, the concept of "Roland = Blockbuster" has actually appeared in the minds of movie fans, no matter how deep the movie is, In short, he will not disappoint the audience who walked into the theater full of expectations. He feels like Harrison Ford in the 1970s and 1980s. As far as the industry is concerned, it is a heavy hammer.
If "Jurassic Park" really breaks one billion, it\'s not as simple as the world box office record - throwing away "Captain Hook", he has starred in a total of four movies, and the cumulative box office will exceed 2.5 billion , the average single film is more than 625 million, and the total investment of the four films is only 220 million, one of which is "Terminator 2"...
With an investment of 220 million yuan, a box office of 2.5 billion yuan, and a super high rate of return of 11.3 times, this is already...
The first film history!
