Chapter 580 Hollywood's Most Serious Video Leak
Pushing open the door, Drake walked into the rented house, took off his coat and hung it on the hanger by the door, and squeezed his eyebrows. Not too comfortable, I can't help but stand in front of the window and look into the distance.
The location here is excellent. From the window, you can see most of the scenery of San Francisco Bay, especially the famous Alcatraz Island, which is right in front of him.
Seeing this famous island, Drake immediately thought of the most famous movie about the island - Breaking the Dead Island, which was a movie he liked very much.
Duke Rosenberg's new film is coming out again.
Looking back from the San Francisco Bay, Drake turned to the room. Like most young people in North America, there were many movie posters on the wall. The most eye-catching position was a red and gold armored man flying poster. It's the upcoming Iron Man.
These are the latest posters released by Warner Bros. The people who can be collected before the film is released are either Duke fans or Iron Man fans.
And Drake is a combination of the two. Since the establishment of the Iron Man project, he has been paying attention to the progress of this film.
After resting for a while, Drake sat at the desk, turned on the computer, and went to Duke's personal official website and instant sharing account to have a look. The promotion and content of Iron Man were the same as those of yesterday, and have not been updated. , even the trailer has only released one so far, and Warner Bros. seems to have no plans to release the second one.
It's really annoying to wait.
Just like last year, Drake would love to have the summer season start sooner.
After browsing several official websites, he turned to a film and television forum. Just after opening the section about movies, he found a post that was highly pinned to the top.
The completed version of Iron Man, friends who want to watch the film in advance, please come in!
How did the video come out online?
Drake frowned slightly. I clicked on this post, and found that the number of views has exceeded 100,000, and there are tens of thousands of replies...
Did the video leak?
As a long-time fan, Drake certainly understands what that means, despite a voice in his head telling him not to click on the link above. Maybe the link pointed to a viral website, but after all, I couldn't hold back my curiosity, and the ** who wanted to see Iron Man in advance, I clicked the mouse lightly.
That was the link to the outside station. Now that it was opened, Drake put other concerns behind him and chose to download it.
The waiting time is long. Sitting in front of the computer boringly looking through other film and television forums, Drake almost found the same posts, and the speed of the Internet is too fast.
If what's on the Internet is true, Duke Rosenberg is in serious trouble.
Hollywood has seen copies of films before they are released before, even if the Internet is not as developed as it is now. Those films were hit hard.
Presumably with Duke's strength, he can carry it through, right? Moreover, the resources on the Internet may not be real.
Just when Drake thought so, the download ended, even knowing it was unethical. But due to curiosity and the human nature of taking advantage, he still dragged the downloaded file into the video player.
This... this is really Iron Man!
Although there are no titles from Warner Bros., Marvel Comics and Duke Studios. But Iron Man's words are quite obvious, and soon after the picture appeared, Robert Downey Jr., who was the iconic Tony Stark in the comics, appeared.
This version is also clear enough. It is completely comparable to the quality of DVDs released by Warner Bros. in the past. The fly in the ointment is that there is a time code rate and Warner Bros. watermark on the screen.
However, it can also be seen in this way, especially the explosion scenes at the beginning, which are quite the style of Duke at the beginning.
Pressing the pause button, Drake made a cup of coffee and went back to the computer to continue watching, but this time, his brows were furrowed, and this version was not finished at all.
It's time for Tony Stark to appear in the Mark Generation, but what the hell is Robert Downey Jr. in a gray tight suit standing in front of a blue screen?
Well, after a little thought, Drake guessed that Robert Downey Jr. was wearing a motion capture suit. The blue screen behind it was to be replaced by a synthetic background in post-production, and the special effects were obviously not added here.
With a sigh, Drake decided to endure it for the time being. Maybe the special effects here haven't been completed yet, and there should be more to see later.
However, the further he looked back, the deeper his brows became, and the film was impossible to watch at all.
It's true that the film has been edited, but all special effects have not been added, except for a few scenes of Robert Downey Jr. walking in props. Where is the so-called Iron Man? Drake didn't see it at all.
A superhero movie without special effects is still a superhero movie?
Not only that, except for a few live recording scenes, there is no sound in many parts of the film, and the soundtrack has disappeared from beginning to end...
In the end, Drake didn't finish it at all, so he turned it off, looked at the time, and decided to sleep, but after lying down, his head was full of Iron Man-related content. When he didn't read the resources downloaded on the Internet, he I just wanted to see this movie, but after watching it, I was reminded of it, and I couldn't wait in my heart.
Not only did the content you just read not quench your thirst, but instead, it was like a traveler in the desert who drank water, but only a drop of water, which made people feel even more uncomfortable.
After tossing and turning, Drake simply got up and turned on the computer again. He logged in to Google to check, only to find out that from next week, the movie tickets for Iron Man can be booked through channels such as telephone and Internet.
Come next week soon, let's start the summer season...
It is not only Drake who has this idea, but also many people who have watched the resources of Iron Man downloaded from the Internet.
Not only ordinary movie fans, but also many media, especially online media, have noticed the relevant information and resources on the Internet, and the response speed is astonishing.
Yahoo Entertainment responded almost immediately.
The source of Iron Man was leaked on the Internet!
The opening of the summer season, the famous director Duke Rosenberg's new film Iron Man will be released in North America on May 5. Unfortunately, the source of this big-budget film was leaked online today. It spreads quietly on major film and television forum websites.”
The picture quality of the source is completely DVD effect. It is reported that it is basically a full-length version, but the special effects, dubbing and soundtrack of the film have not been added. In addition, the source has a clear time code rate and watermark, which greatly affects the picture quality. However, this may be a The biggest blockbuster in the history of Hollywood has been leaked ahead of schedule, and what kind of impact it will have on Iron Man, it’s hard to say at the moment…”
In the conference room of Warner Bros., Tina Fey turned off the projector, and the relevant reports from Yahoo Entertainment disappeared. Although it was already night, almost all of Duke, Marvel Studios and Warner Bros. sat in the conference room.
All of them had serious faces, and this was undoubtedly a very serious incident.
The meeting has been going on for more than half an hour, and there is no clue as to which link went wrong.
Whether the source of the film on the Internet came from Duke's team, Marvel Studios, or Warner Bros., we will have time to check later.
Panny Kelly, who has been silent all the time, spoke up. As an expert in public relations, she is best at dealing with various emergencies. Everyone, where did the entanglement film leak from now, it's meaningless!
After this kind of incident, the parties will inevitably have some mutual suspicions, which is human nature.
Doug, Kevin...
Looking up, Duke looked at Warner Bros. CEO Doug Walter and Marvel Studios CEO Kevin Feige and said, I think you all know that Rob Zumby's Halloween and La Eros's Humanskin Inn has been leaked in advance, and it has obviously affected the box office performance.
He emphasized his tone a little bit, But those leaks in the past are not as serious as this time. Don't forget the investment in Iron Man. We must do everything possible to restore the negative impact.
In post-production, due to the increased requirements for special effects, the final production cost of Iron Man has increased to 150 million US dollars. If such an investment project produces serious losses, Duke, Marvel Pictures and Warner Bros. will all face great predicament.
Especially for Marvel Studios, if Iron Man fails, the entire subsequent series will collapse, but it is inevitable to postpone it indefinitely.
However, such a crisis is not easy to deal with, and there is no successful precedent in Hollywood in the past. Even Panney Kelly, a veteran who has worked hard in Hollywood and the entertainment industry for decades, could not think of a way to use it for a while. .
If I can find out who did it...
Doug Walter, who was sitting next to Duke, looked calm, but the veins on his forehead jumped, Then he's dead!
Duke glanced at him and said nothing. He hurried to the Warner Building because he got the news. So far, he has not seen what kind of version has been circulated. If it is a digital copy that has basically completed post-production, Iron Man's box office, if not a collapse, will probably be much worse than expected.
There was a knock on the door, and an assistant walked into the conference room. He handed a disk to Tina Fey, who turned on the projector again.
The online leaked version of Iron Man appeared on the curtain, but after watching it for a long time, Duke's frowning eyebrows gradually loosened.
This is the version stored on Warner Bros. servers. (To be continued ^)
