Chapter 445: Refresh your own record
Gently breaking free from her arms, Ivanka turned her head to look beside her. Duke was still asleep. She knew that her boyfriend spent too much energy dealing with reporters last night. After a kiss, he tiptoed out of bed, went into the bathroom to wash up, and then changed his clothes and went downstairs directly.
Because it was a little early, the villa was very quiet. Ivanka walked to the computer by the floor-to-ceiling window, turned on the system, and prepared to see the response of The Two Towers.
She didn't go to Duke's personal website, which is where fans are concentrated, and you don't need to look to know that it must be a good review.
Open the Google homepage, Ivanka searched, and entered the IMDB website. On the prominent position of the homepage, she saw the poster of The Two Towers. Without any hesitation, she clicked directly.
The first thing Ivanka saw was the rating of the film. The early stage and the midnight stage had ended. There were quite a lot of users who scored, and the data displayed was as high as 25,788. The average score of The Two Towers was 9.6 points!
It's normal, isn't it?
Muttering to herself, Ivanka smiled slightly, and then looked down. Many users who rated it have left comments, some of them are senior movie fans.
The connection between the story lines of The Two Towers uses a classical montage technique, and the last shot of the previous story and the first shot of the latter part are visually in the same line.
In terms of character building, there are many highlights in the film - Frodo was tempted by the Lord of the Rings, and his mental state of wandering and struggling made the characters thicker, but the most exciting thing was the new character Gollum.
The action scenes of the film are not as dense as the first episode, but the finale, the Battle of Helm's Deep, still lives up to expectations, and its posture is enough to be worth the movie ticket price. This scene has the whole picture of the battlefield, without ignoring the encounter of swords. The details. The composition of the full shot is so powerful that it takes your breath away and forgets that a lot of what’s in the frame is actually computer animation.”
This is a very pertinent evaluation. Ivanka continued to look down, and then saw that Duke's brainless fans swiped the screen.
The Genesis of the Magic Movie!
The picture is so spectacular that people need to watch it repeatedly.
Although I don't like watching fantasy movies. But I have to say that the Battle of Helm's Deep is too exciting.
This one is very well connected, the battle scenes are just right, the scenes are grand but not tiresome, although the literary drama is a little long, but the story has fully unfolded, making full preparations for the arrival of the final chapter.
I watched 1. How can I miss 2, and how can I miss 3 next year!
The darkness before dawn in The Two Towers, the desperate battle for defending the city, the kind of complexity and courage unique to human beings, moved people to tears!
Director Duke Rosenberg is absolutely a prodigy. He showed his extraordinary talent in this film, making the narratively difficult Two Towers seem natural and smooth, but also makes people feel for the later story. full of expectation.
There were footsteps on the other side of the stairs, and Ivanka turned to look. Tina Fey came downstairs with a document in her hand. It should be the fax you just received.
Morning, Evie.
Morning, Tina.
After the two said hello, Tina Fey put the documents on the coffee table. Looking this way, he asked, Has Duke not woken up yet?
Well, I'm still sleeping. Ivanka nodded. I was a little tired from dealing with too many reporters yesterday.
Not only did she deal with reporters yesterday, she knew very well that during the period before the release, Duke was running announcements everywhere, promoting the film, and her work was very busy. Even though she came to Los Angeles three days ago, she had never actually seen it. Duke faces.
Duke wouldn't be sleeping in Duke Manor right now if it wasn't for the premiere in Los Angeles.
Ivanka knew Duke's attitude toward work, and it wasn't until the film came out last night that she relaxed a little.
The director's job is really stressful, and it's no wonder that Anna Prinz doesn't want to direct the film alone. This kind of pressure is indeed a bit scary for female directors.
Tina, Ivanka asked, looking at the document, is that the latest statistics?
Yeah, the Lord of the Rings studio sent a fax in the early morning. Tina Fey picked up the document and walked over, I've also been exhausted these days. I overslept last night and only saw it this morning.
Saying that, she walked to Ivanka and handed the document over.
This is not a commercial secret. After Ivanka took it, she quickly looked at it, and then sighed heavily.
It's no surprise at all!
Tina Fei pulled a chair next to her, sat down, shrugged her shoulders, and said, Isn't it a good thing that there are no accidents?
With a slight nod, Ivanka heard footsteps again, and Duke walked down the stairs. He was dressed in sportswear, as if he was going to go around the garden as usual.
Hi, dear. Ivanka immediately stood up and walked over, Why don't you sleep for a while?
Can't sleep. Duke rubbed his forehead as he walked down the stairs, The biological clock woke me up.
He continued to walk towards the door, I'm going to run... Let's take a walk today.
I'll go with you. Ivanka followed, with the statistic.
The two walked across the stone road in front of the villa, walked into the garden, followed the path between the palm trees, and walked towards the beach. The fresh breeze is a rare time of day suitable for outdoor activities.
Faxed from The Lord of the Rings. Ivanka gestured to Duke for the information, but didn't mean to give him, Want to hear it, dear?
Duke pointed to his ears, Looks like I'll be lazy with my eyes in the future.
Ivanka smiled, turned from the path to the wooden table under the pavilion, sat on the rattan chair, opened the document, and Duke walked over and sat opposite her.
In terms of cinemas, 27,662 people have submitted survey feedback, with a positive rate of 96% and an A+ CinemaScore
Having said that, Ivanka suddenly stopped and asked curiously. What is CinemaScore?
CinemaScore is a market research company based in Las Vegas. It surveys the ratings of moviegoers after watching a movie, and its report results are a basis for predicting box office revenue. The highest rating is A+, and the lowest is F.
After a brief explanation, Duke said, This is a professional research company that has risen very fast in recent years. The data it publishes is one of the important basis for adjustment by theater chains and distribution companies.
Ivanka nodded. Continuing to read the statistics for Duke, Rotten Tomatoes has included 48 professional film reviews, with a freshness rating of 78%, and many film critics have given negative reviews, including Roger Albert and Big-name film critics like David Denby.
She blinked deliberately, Honey, do you want to listen to their movie reviews?
I don't have the habit of looking for abuse in my ears. Duke waved his hand. Talk about other things.
Okay then. Ivanka also knows that Duke doesn't care what the critics say, The Popcorn audience love index is 94%, MetaCritic website counted 77 entertainment reporters' scores, with an average score of 88 points. .
Duke knows all too well what such a high audience and market index represents.
really. Ivanka didn't make any more tricks and said directly, Yesterday's 2,145 advance shows had an average attendance of 84%. The box office was US$4.07 million, and the box office for a single game exceeded US$1,800!
Duke squeezed his chin. After experiencing the explosion of The Fellowship of the Ring, he and Warner Bros. had some expectations about this achievement. Although not all the theaters were used in the early stage, the theaters were confident in the film. Almost all of the Two Towers are shown in the largest theaters in the theaters where they are located, otherwise they would not have received such an excellent early-stage box office.
Congratulations, dear. Ivanka's voice interrupted Duke's distraction. The Two Towers broke your midnight box office record!
What? Duke didn't hear just now.
Ivanka deliberately showed a dissatisfied expression, and then said, The Two Towers won the box office of 9.89 million US dollars in 3,876 theaters at midnight, breaking the 9.47 million maintained by The Fellowship of the Ring The original record for dollars!
This is good news! Duke shook Ivanka's hand gently, We should go back and have a drink to celebrate.
Sorry, I'm losing weight recently. Ivanka showed an apologetic smile, Alcohol is a prohibited substance!
Evie, you don't have to do this.
Duke knew very well that Ivanka had always cared about what he had said about her body shape, so fitness, dieting and weight loss never disappeared from her schedule.
Ivanka didn't listen to Duke's words in this regard. This is what I am willing to do.
She looked at her watch and pulled Duke to stand up, It's almost time, let's go back to breakfast, your diet and rest need to be regular.
The two walked back hand in hand, but they didn't go very far when they saw Tina Fei hurriedly looking for him, obviously in a hurry.
What happened, Tina? Duke asked.
Tina Fey took a breath and said quickly, Nancy, Panney, and The Lord of the Rings all called, and a lot of bad reviews for The Two Towers suddenly broke out on the Internet. Not only did they invade IMDB , and the trend of spreading to other websites, as well as your personal website, which has also been brushed with a lot of bad reviews!
Her words immediately caught Duke's attention. He accelerated his pace and walked towards the villa. The Internet can create a movie, and sometimes it can also have a huge negative impact on a movie.
Ivanka followed, and took the time to ask Tina Fei, I just went to IMDB to read it. Although there are bad reviews, there are very few.
It was just brushed during the time you were walking. Tina Fei replied, It appeared intensively in a short period of time! (To be continued ^)
