Chapter 597: Acting Evil

Michael Ovitz promptly stopped the violent act Mel Gibson was preparing. If he hits someone in public, Mel Gibson will probably be sued by Little Gilbert again.

Little Gilbert was a little disappointed that he didn't anger Mel Gibson, but he didn't pay too much attention.

"Michael, since the launch of "Transformers" has been so intense, aren't you afraid that the film will fail?" Little Gilbert asked casually.

Perhaps because of his brief collaboration with Disney and the responsibility for Gilbert Jr.'s "Saving Private Ryan," Michael Ovitz's impression of Gilbert Jr. was not as bad as that of David Ellison and Mel Gibson.

He smiled and said: "I am very satisfied with the quality of the film. I believe it will live up to your expectations."

"Really? I'll wait and see."

Michael Ovitz went to greet other guests, and Scarlett scanned around and discovered the New World.

"Little Gilbert, look at that over there, is she the heroine of "Transformers"? She has a pretty good figure."

"There are robots, a sexy and hot heroine, and Michael Bay's specialty. It is expected to make a difference in the summer season. We will find out after we see it."

Little Gilbert didn't go to chat with Michael Bay, and he probably didn't want to see him very much. The two watched the entire movie quietly, which was very different from the "Transformers" in the previous life.

Maybe Andrew Garfield's youthful spirit is much better than that of the original Shia LaBeouf. From a sensory point of view, he has a more CP feel with Megan Fox.

The response from the fans at the scene was even more enthusiastic. Many of the fans had seen the so-called leaked version before, but it was not satisfying and felt like they were scratching the surface.

After seeing the official version in theaters, movie fans were satisfied.

When a movie fan interacted with the creators, he said excitedly: "It's really shocking and feels very good. I must recommend it to my friends and let's watch it again together."

David Ellison seems to have named Little Gilbert and Scarlett Johansson on purpose.

On this occasion, Sijia couldn't say harshly that it didn't look good, so she could only say that the film was good and shocking.

Little Gilbert is much more chic. If the movie is good, it's good. There aren't that many things going on.

"It's very shocking, especially the scene where Bumblebee transforms for the first time. It really shocked me. In terms of production level alone, this "Transformers" has reached the top level of Hollywood."

Michael Bay was very happy to hear this. He was finally able to make a work that little Gilbert felt good about.

David Ellison was even happier. He snatched this project from DreamWorks and Gilbert Jr. Now that he can be recognized by his opponents, it means that he has done a very, very good job.

The premiere of "Transformers" ended successfully. When Little Gilbert and Scarlett came out, Bumblebee and Optimus Prime were still at the door.

David Ellison sent the two of them out. Seeing little Gilbert's eyes paying attention to the two robot toys, he said: "I'll send someone to your house later. I hope you won't refuse."

Little Gilbert thought that the children would definitely like it, so he did not refuse: "Thank you, David."

"You're welcome, I also want to thank you for coming to support us!"

David Ellison looked a little proud, which made Scarlett look a little unhappy: "Be careful that the box office of the movie does not meet expectations!"

"Hahaha," David Ellison seemed to have heard a funny joke: "Ms. Johnson, I'm afraid I'm going to disappoint you. Our market research data doesn't say that."

"Huh, that's the best!" Scarlett curled her lips and decided to ignore David Ellison. On the way back, Scarlett asked little Gilbert: "What do you think of the box office of "Transformers" in its first week?"

"It's hard to say, but it's estimated to have a first-week box office of over RMB 70 to RMB 80 million." Little Gilbert made a rough guess: "The main reason is that you have seen the film, it is considered a good quality commercial blockbuster.

The publicity effect is so good, it is probably difficult to fail. ”

"Huh!" Sijia said dissatisfied: "If we do it ourselves, the effect will probably be better."

"It's meaningless to say this now, let's see how the follow-up performance will be." Little Gilbert said with a smile: "I see, the headache now is "The Da Vinci Code"."

Indeed, in the face of the massive "Transformers", even with a superstar like Tom Hanks, "The Da Vinci Code" is still facing a formidable enemy.

Sure enough, at the midnight show shortly after the premiere, many fans who were attracted by the leaked film source walked into the cinema.

Michael Bay's personal box office appeal is not strong, but that is compared to directors like Gilbert Jr. In fact, he has accumulated a certain audience over the years, and many people will go to see movies based on his name.

This time "Transformers" made such a big splash again and attracted many passers-by.

Therefore, the midnight screening of "Transformers" took in box office data of US$13.35 million, which is quite good. In comparison, "The Da Vinci Code" only had $6.53 million, which is far inferior to "Transformers".

There were also some differences in reviews between the two films, with "Transformers" receiving generally positive reviews.

"Transformers" is the childhood memory of the audience born in the 1980s. It can be said that this movie starring real people has brought them back to their childhood.

Seeing Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, and Megatron rapidly transforming on the screen within a few seconds, the audience was so excited that they dared not blink.

Some viewers said that they were excited when they heard the lines "Autobots, transform" when they were children. The movie did not destroy their memories, and it was more real and spectacular.

Michael Bay is a master of blockbusters, and films that rely on scenes and special effects are naturally his strengths. The film combines the "bombarding" qualities of Hollywood blockbusters, with a scene or a fight scene basically every five minutes.

With the production of new 3D technology, Transformers have undergone huge changes in appearance. If they didn't identify themselves or rely on color to identify them, they would really be unrecognizable. ”—"Movie"

"For male viewers, watching movies like this is to relive childhood memories. Even though the appearance of Transformers has changed a lot compared to twenty years ago, many people can still pronounce their names in one breath. .

At the end of the film, many men felt that they were still unsatisfied. ”——"Hollywood Reporter"

Of course, there are also negative reviews. For example, the Los Angeles Business Journal commented that the film's editing was too confusing. The transformation process was so fast that I didn't even notice it.

The good guys and bad guys all looked the same, and they were fighting each other without knowing who it was.

Some female viewers also said that the film was too boring. If they did not watch it with their boyfriends or husbands, they would not choose to watch it at all.

"Only the male protagonist Sam in the movie aroused my interest slightly. After all, he is not bad looking, but other parts were too boring. I fell asleep for two hours in the cinema." A female fan said in an interview.

These have become the points that "The Da Vinci Code" needs to grasp. In response to the shortcomings of "Transformers", Sony Columbia Pictures began to launch a troll to try to influence the reputation of "Transformers".

However, "The Da Vinci Code" is not a perfect work. To some extent, this movie is more controversial than "Transformers".
