Chapter 136 Shocked Jack for a Whole Year


Chapter 136 Shocked Jack for a Whole Year
Sullivan and Ball, who had once trespassed on the filming location of "The Island", were also invited to attend the premiere. The two high school fans watched the movie excitedly .

Of course, when I saw my own shot appearing, I couldn't help but show off to the fans next to me: "Look, that's me, that's me, did you see it, man..."

Fans who were interrupted while watching the movie were unhappy: "Shut up, don't interfere with my movie."

Although they were scolded by other fans, the two high school students were still very excited.

Seeing yourself on the big screen is an amazing feeling.

The second half of the film is also very exciting. After a fierce battle, General Hammer was shot to death by a few of his subordinates.

Gusby and Mason worked together to snatch the poisonous gas container from the little miscellaneous fish.

As the feds were about to give an order for fighter jets to drop bombs, Goolsby's fiancée begged the director in tears not to give the order.

Goosby held up the signal smoke and ran to the solemn and exciting music to signal the fighter planes.

When the order to stop the attack was given, all the viewers couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief. The film ended perfectly.

Although there is still a stunning bomb perspective shot, for the audience, the film is over.

At the end, in the afterglow of the sunset, Goolsby talked with John Mason. Goolsby let Mason leave peacefully, and naturally learned a secret from Mason.

When the music rose with the camera and the car sped away, all the audience stood up and applauded, dedicating their applause to this wonderful movie.

Bacher Lutz applauded and said to Evans: "Captain Mason is so cool. He deserves to be the coolest old man in Hollywood."

Evans had a different opinion: "I like the character of General Hammer. I don't know who plays him, but it's really great."

"Yes," Bacher Lutz also agreed: "The performance was really good. I think the role of General Hammer deserves to be rewarded during the awards season. His two monologues spoke to my heart."

Evans shook his head and said: "Unfortunately, the type of this movie determines that it cannot have much success during the awards season."

This is indeed true. Although "Bravely Entering the Island" has certain thoughts and considers the meaning behind loyalty and responsibility to the country and honor and betrayal, it is still essentially a refreshing summer commercial blockbuster.

During the interactive session and media question-and-answer session at the end of the film, Gilbert Jr. simply answered a few questions and focused on the three leading actors.

Nicolas Cage was very happy. He was originally resistant to starring in this commercial film. But now he just wants to say that it was a wise decision.

Roger Moore felt the same way. He had already passed away, but with this movie, he reappeared in the public eye.

Many young movie fans even call him the coolest and most handsome old man in Hollywood and the best 007 actor.

This made Roger Moore very excited, so excited that he would definitely not be able to sleep tonight.

After the interactive session, Roger Moore found little Gilbert who was resting and expressed his gratitude: "Thank you, little Gilbert.

Without you, I would have been forgotten in a corner.

But now, the applause, screams, and cheers are back, and I still can't forget this feeling. "

It can be seen that Roger Moore enjoyed it. Little Gilbert patted Roger Moore on the shoulder and said: "Roger, enjoy this moment!"

After the premiere, the guests and fans who attended the premiere took a boat to leave Alcatraz Island, and "The Island of the Dead" also had its own midnight show.

Midnight screenings are basically a carnival for die-hard movie fans. After accumulating several movies, Little Gilbert's number of die-hard movie fans has grown greatly.

The filming location of the film was a movie theater on Powell Street in San Francisco's Chinatown. Many movie fans suddenly came in the evening.

The Chinese living in Chinatown are very curious. Normally, these people of all skin colors, especially white people, would hardly come here, let alone come at night.

After all, there are gangs in Chinatown and the public security is so-so.

But the sudden arrival of a large number of white people confused the Chinese people. What happened?
A daring Chinese asked a white man. The white man was very arrogant and anxious and told the Chinese that it was because they couldn't get tickets for the movie theater nearby. They thought there was a movie theater here, so they came here to watch movies.

See a movie?
To be honest, a movie ticket is not cheap for the lower-class Chinese people nowadays. Some Chinese people basically never go to the cinema, and usually watch movies on video tapes or TV.

The business of this movie theater located near Chinatown is not very good, and it can barely survive.

What kind of movie is so popular that other movie theaters can't buy tickets, and they have to let these white gentlemen come to a place they despise.

Soon everyone figured out that it turned out to be the representative of the American dream. The latest work "The Island" by the famous Hollywood talented director Gilbert Jr. was about to be released.

For the Chinese who are at the bottom of society but cherish the American dream, Little Gilbert's story is familiar to them, and many people look forward to becoming the next Little Gilbert.

After hearing that it was the work of this director, many Chinese became interested and decided to bite the bullet, buy a movie ticket, and go into the cinema to watch the movie.

This is an unexpected surprise. The Chinese community is not small. If they are all converted into Little Gilbert's ticket warehouse, they can all contribute a certain amount of box office.

But it is a pity that in today's movie market, white audiences are the main force watching movies.

As for black audiences, Latinos or other minority audiences, they only account for a very small part.

Watching movies is a very luxurious form of entertainment no matter which country you are in. A movie ticket is not cheap for people who are struggling at the bottom. It may be the price of two meals for the whole family.

Jack Zhao is the Chinese who followed those white audiences and bought a movie ticket. He works as a parking boy at the Fremont Hotel and does some illegal work at night to earn money.

He had a younger brother with good grades. His father died in a gang fire. His mother was in poor health and supported the family by doing laundry. Therefore, Jack Zhao must earn more money for his brother and his family to maintain his life.

He got off work from the hotel today, and saw little Gilbert checking into the hotel from a distance. At that time, he also lamented the extravagant life of this talented Hollywood director.

Little Gilbert's one night stay at the Fremont Hotel was enough to support Jack Zhao's family for three months.

But at that time, he just sighed, but never had the idea of ​​going to the cinema to watch this director's movie.

But seeing a group of white viewers condescend to come to Chinatown for his movie, Jack Zhao became curious. It just so happened that there was a reward from a hotel guest today, so Jack Zhao accidentally bought a movie ticket and entered the cinema.

When Jack Zhao walked into the cinema, he saw that almost all of the audience was white. He was the only Chinese, and he couldn't help but feel his legs shaking, and he was a little scared.

But on weekdays, these condescending white people seemed to have no time to talk to this slightly scared Chinese, and they communicated excitedly, waiting for the movie to start.

Seeing that no one cared about him, Jack Zhao relaxed a little and found his seat to sit down.

Two white girls next to them were talking excitedly and ignored Zhao Jack beside them.

Jack Zhao calmed down and watched a movie in the cinema for the first time. This was an experience he had never had before, and the wonderful feeling made him fly into the clouds.

It turns out that this is what it feels like to watch a movie in a cinema?

Especially the white girl next to him was nervous because of the explosion and the car chase scene. She couldn't help but hugged Jack Zhao's arm. The soft touch was even better than the girls who sell it on Twist Street.

But Jack Zhao didn't pay attention. He focused on the big screen, watching the wonderful film and being intoxicated in it.

After the film ended, Jack Zhao felt relieved and felt it was worth it.

Although he may be scolded after returning home, Jack Zhao feels that the trip to the cinema is worth it.

No wonder these white audiences are still obsessed with movie theaters even though they can rent videos to watch movies. There is a reason for this.

The white girl on the side seemed a little embarrassed that she was holding Jack Zhao's arm just now. When she walked out of the theater, she took the initiative to talk to Jack Zhao.

"Hey, I'm sorry, I was holding your arm just now."

Zhao Jack realized later: "Huh? Well, it doesn't matter. In fact, I didn't even pay attention."

The white girl looked at Jack Zhao's stupid look, chuckled, and took the initiative to shake hands with Jack Zhao: "Hello, my name is Erin Keyes."

"Jack Zhao..." Jack Zhao shook hands with Erin Keyes in a daze.

Erin Keyes suppressed her laughter and extended an invitation to Jack Zhao: "I think you are very interesting. We are going to the bar for a drink. Do you want to come?"

Jack Zhao suddenly remembered that his mother and brother were waiting for him to go home, so he hurriedly said goodbye: "Sorry, miss, next time, I have to go home."

After saying that, Irene Case ran back, leaving a stunned look on her face.

The companion on the side teased: "Irene, are you interested in this yellow man?"

"What are you talking about?" Erin Keyes glared at her companion, then turned to look at the direction Jack Zhao was leaving thoughtfully.

Early the next morning, in the suite on the top floor of the Fremont Hotel, Cameron Diaz was reading the news in the newspaper, and little Gilbert had breakfast with Naomi Watts and Charlize Theron.

That's right, after the premiere, the four stayed in the same hotel and did the same thing they did together on Christmas Eve.

If the Fremont Hotel itself could talk, I would probably complain: Can the four of you change places? Every time I come here, I feel uncomfortable!

"The entire film is brilliant, stirring up the audience's emotions at all times, allowing the audience to follow the plot of the film like a roller coaster ride, with ups and downs..."

Cameron Diaz finished reading the last newspaper, took the bread from Naomi Watts, spread butter on it, and asked little Gilbert: "Has the midnight box office data come out?"

"There are results," little Gilbert nodded: "The midnight box office revenue was 4.43 million U.S. dollars, which is quite a good figure."

"Wow," Charlize Theron also exclaimed: "It seems you have a lot of fans, so many people went to the midnight show to support your movie."

"I think the early promotion of the film was done well. Honey, I don't think it will be a problem for the film to be a big seller in the summer." Naomi Watts' face glowed.

Although she doesn't have many roles, she is an important female role in a man's drama, so the audience will definitely have a deep impression on her.

The consecutive starring roles in "Love at Two Sights" and "The Island" were huge hits, and she has barely reached the threshold of a first-line actress.

Little Gilbert didn't eat much for breakfast and ended his meal quickly.

After wiping his mouth, little Gilbert said: "The midnight show doesn't mean anything. Whether the film will be welcomed by the market or not depends on its performance on the opening weekend."

The first weekend box office plays an important role in a commercial blockbuster during the summer season. The audience's reputation and attendance are all factors that determine the future direction of the film.

However, this film was a success in its previous life, so there is no reason why it would fail now. Little Gilbert is very confident.

Happy New Year's Eve to everyone, thank you all for your support, your support is the motivation for me to update.

During the Spring Festival, updates will still be stable, so you don’t have to worry about this. Since I work so hard to update, how about more subscription tickets?
