Chapter 324: The Remaining Brave Should Pursue the Poor Bandits
"Mr. Sherman, are you really sure you didn't make this movie to mock Mr. Alba?" asked a member of the Motion Picture Association of America's review committee. "You mocked India's computer technology development environment in this movie, while portraying the hero and his supporters as a paranoid and narcissist, it would be 'defamation'."
Jed looked at the Indian film reviewer coldly. In fact, the company's legal team was reviewing the film frame by frame from project approval to script finalization to shooting to final editing.If the film had any legal risks, the legal team would have killed the film long ago.However, the Indian reviewer insisted that the film was defaming others, so he called producer Jed Sherman, director David Fincher, and screenwriter Aaron Sorkin to the American Film Association headquarters to explain.
This move not only made Jed feel inexplicable, but also seemed to be a public relations crisis under the exaggeration of caring people.Jed looked down at the name tag of the film reviewer, and then said: "Mr. Gupta, according to the selection criteria of the Film Review Committee of the Motion Picture Association of America, you should be an official American citizen. Then, I would like to ask you to repeat the U.S. Is the content of the First Amendment to the Constitution good? Don’t you know? In the United States, the First Amendment gives us a power called 'freedom of speech'? According to this power, our artists have the right to create and criticize freely .Do you want to initiate a lawsuit against the US Constitution? Mr. Gupta, please put away your "I'm for you" face, who do you work for, do you think I don't know? If this If there is any 'slander' or 'slander' in the movie, please ask the people behind you to directly sue us!"
After speaking, Jed took everyone out of here, and the media reporters naturally swarmed here as if they had smelled bloody sharks.Facing the reporter's question, Jed asked rather annoyed: "When did the film review committee of the Film Association become a moral review agency? When did the First Amendment to the Constitution that even the Federal Communications Commission and the Department of Justice must abide by in the United States? The Motion Picture Association has become a dead letter? If my film does not pass the review as scheduled, then the Motion Picture Association of America will be greeted by the Supreme Court of the United States for unconstitutional review! Yes, I am very angry! Don’t let a mouse shit ruin it A whole pot of soup!"
Jed's shouting was naturally known to Dude very quickly. After learning about the incident, he couldn't help being angry at the stupidity of his subordinates, and at the same time annoyed that Alba stretched his hand too far.In less than 24 hours, the reviewer Gupta was fired for "violating the association's moral self-discipline clause", and "The Social Network" also landed in the October schedule with a PG-13 rating.In fact, this movie should not have existed in this life. After all, the concept of Facebook was conceived by Jed. Although Zuckerberg was the main contributor, Jed would never allow such a movie to discredit his subordinates. genius.Fortunately, Reliance Group actually imitated a website called Matelink in India. Fortunately, Alba didn’t copy Facebook’s promotion method directly. Instead, he aimed Matelink at newcomers who had just entered the workplace and helped them build career contacts. , this is a bit like the "Xiaonei" and "Kaixin" in China in the previous life.However, Jed did not have good intentions in making this film. First of all, he wanted to break some people's notions that India is a "technological paradise" and "base camp of freedom and democracy", but reflected the real situation of many Indians in later generations.Especially all kinds of disrespect and insults to women, if not to ensure the rating of the movie, the whole movie was almost made into a "criminal theme" by David Fincher.Secondly, the title of India’s so-called Silicon Valley of Asia should also be revealed. India is indeed the largest outsourcing country for the US technology industry, but they are actually engaged in the lowest-level technology development work, which is no different from China’s “code farmers”.The most important thing is that China has given up technology companies such as Huawei and ZTE, but India does not seem to have any technology companies that can be sold.The most important thing is the environment in India. In the words of the crew, "Thank God, we are finally leaving this big garbage dump full of malaria and typhoid."
The October schedule is actually neither good nor bad. After all, "The Social Network" is not a particularly commercial movie, so it doesn't have that much pressure on this schedule. The week before the release of "The Social Network" was "Legend of the Guardian of the Owl Kingdom" and "Money Never Sleeps on Wall Street". These two films did not directly impact the "Social Network", and David Fincher boldly used idol stars The starring role also brought a lot of fans to support the box office.At the weekend of the first week, "The Social Network" became the champion with a box office of 2245 million US dollars; at the weekend of the second week, "The Social Network" defeated the new films "Destined to Have Many You" and "A Generation of Proud Horses" and won the championship again, but the box office of the week was not Only $1545 million; sure enough, in the third week, "The Social Network" was beaten by the spoof comedy "Jackass 3" and the action film "Red Field".However, such achievements have satisfied the producer MGM.However, with the landing of this film in the Asia-Pacific market, the Indian government had to do a lot of government public relations to avoid damage to the country's image due to the release of this film.
After dealing with matters related to "The Social Network", Jed began to turn his energy to the preparations for the promotion of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part [-]".The final season of the TV series "Harry Potter" will land on the WE TV network this autumn, and the last "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince" showed everyone that children's novels can also be adapted into spy movies.And the good reputation of the last one also made fans and film critics maintain high expectations for "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part [-]".But Jed was accepting Good Morning!"America" interviewed: "This is not a 'Harry Potter' movie in the usual sense. In this episode, Harry will face many challenges beyond his age. Yes, Jed will be in this episode. Understand the difference between 'boy' and 'man'. Through his series of adventures, he is going to understand what is 'love' and what is 'responsibility'... Maybe the dark theme of this movie will not let too many children Like it, but it might be a little inspiration for older kids who are going into society. Of course, in the end it's a very good commercial movie, all the hot elements will not be missing. And importantly, Don't miss the first and second installments of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows!"
The content of Jed's interview sparked speculation among many, most famously as USA TODAY's entertainment reporter Jenkins wrote, "In Christopher Nolan's darker 'Batman prequel trilogy', Song', Warner announced that it would make a "Superman" that also had a dark theme, and Paramount said it would make a "Star Trek" with a dark theme. Now, even "Harry Potter" Going to make a dark theme! My God, Mr. Sherman, do you know who this movie is aimed at? Their age doesn't need to know the dark side of society, and at the same time they can't understand the dark side of society! Why do you Can't give them a little wizard flying around on a broom? If nothing else, this will be the ugliest movie in the Harry Potter series. I even think Ms. Rowling is thinking about changing directors Come and remake the seventh episode of the Harry Potter novels."
Jenkins' speech was supported by many people, and various social networking sites forwarded his comments one after another.But Jed refused to further explain the matter, he only replied, "Whether the movie is good or not, you will know when you go to the cinema."
"Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 11" is scheduled to be released on November 19, which not only staggers the Christmas file full of strong movies, but also approaches Thanksgiving, the family celebration.Apparently, Thanksgiving seems like a better time frame for this movie aimed at kids.And just a week before the release of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part [-]," the animated film "Superbane" is on its way to the top weekend box office.This is not a good sign. The main audience of animated films is also children. If this film dilutes the box office of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part [-]", then the face of the distributor will not be so good.In the end, the premiere of the film was held at the Galaxy Theater in Orange County. First of all, this is a movie produced by Galaxy Films. Secondly, Orange County has the most middle-class families in the Greater Los Angeles area, so this will be the key area for publicity.
In order to promote "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part [-]", Jed not only bought a lot of advertising time on TV networks and cable stations, but also bought radio and newspaper ads.In short, as long as you are in an important ticket warehouse city in the United States, what you see and hear these days is "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part [-]".At the same time, Jed took the crew members to all the mainstream news programs and talk shows in the United States. In some variety shows and game shows that he didn’t remember very much, Jed also appeared in "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part [-]". "endorsement.As the penultimate episode of the "Harry Potter series of movies", Jed naturally hopes that there will be no problems with this finale, and finally ensure that "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part [-]" can end perfectly.
On November 2010, 11, "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 9" finally landed on 4 canvases in North America.While Jed was in the car watching the news reports from the main ticket warehouse cities. As Jenkins predicted, there were long queues in front of almost all movie theaters, and the data fed back by the theaters, The first movie tonight was almost all sold out, and the second and third movies that followed also hung up signs saying "Tickets are tight".Seeing such good data, Jed finally put down the new card and appeared on the red carpet at the Galaxy Theater in Orange County with John, Matthew and Flora.For Jed's practice of showing affection from time to time, although anti-gay people are extremely disgusted and even issued death threats, they still continue to show the world that gay families are no different from all families.
He took John and the children into the box, and the waiter left after delivering snacks and tea.After a few pre-roll ads, the picture suddenly dimmed.The opening scene is a picture of Jed paying tribute to Coppola's masterpiece "Apocalypse of War". Although Harry and his uncle's family are not happy, at this time he still helps his uncle escape from this dangerous Privet Drive community; And Hermione endured tears to let her parents forget herself, and erased all evidence of her existence.
