Ace Hollywood
Chapter 17: A Successful Hype (Part 2)
The heat came faster than everyone thought.
This is directly reflected in the amount of discussion on the IMDB Campus Blues page.
There is no shortage of calls to deal with Daniel's thief and liar and to find the real Billy Bob. There are also young girls who surrender to Daniel's appearance.
In fact, their strength even surpassed that of the previous wave.
Gao Gao's top one is a girl's nympho, Daniel is so handsome, does anyone have any other photos of him? Why are there only a few of them.
It was put there when Kusa built the page.
Both Brian and Michael called Daniel specifically.
This is a surprise, the popularity of College Blues has climbed up in this way, and with serious publicity, it has rushed into the top 100 films of IMDB in one fell swoop.
Daniel even entered the ranks of top250 one day, of course, only at the end of the day.
But it's true that a lot of people know him, Daniel Sandler.
For him, this is a milestone anniversary.
Of course, the film crew has remained silent, and no one has responded to Daniel's incident.
Until the premiere at the Beverly Hilton.
You've been in the limelight recently. Although James smiled, he was a bit sarcastic.
In comparison, Paul is much more sincere.
Daniel, Paul, and Ellie Larter sat in the first row of watching the movie, whispering about their respective developments.
Hearing that Daniel had landed a part in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, Paul excitedly gave him a punch.
This is a good opportunity.
Just a character with no role.
Who would have thought that Billy Bob would be popular first? Ellie also patted him. The last time the two met on the set of Death Comes, it was somewhat awkward, but now it is much more natural, The protagonist is not Fire, are there still few movies with supporting roles that are popular?
The discussions around slowly stopped, and the three of them quickly sat down.
The movie is about to start.
Billy picked up the Timberwolves team members one by one in a pickup truck. He gulped down Coke and chewed biscuits, rude and annoying.
Daniel felt that many people were watching him, as if to measure whether Billy on the screen was the same person as him.
But most people still focus on movies.
Vibrant rugby boys run wild in pickup trucks.
This is a very pleasing shot.
Jonathan was humiliated...heavy training, games, Billy passed out, and then there was his confrontation with Coach Bud.
Daniel's heart lifted.
There was an inexplicable tsk sound from behind.
The movie smoothly creates new small-town hero Jonathan, then the young hero's growing pains, and the movie's climax is in the break room. Bud's best performance in trying to ignore all conflicts, but he ultimately fails. up.
The members of the Timberwolves, Lance and Jonathan commanded the team together, and finally they put their trust in Billy Bob.
With only a few minutes left in the movie,
Of course, Billy was undoubtedly the key player in the end. He pulled back the score and finally overtook.
At this point in the movie, this group of young people finally achieved double victories both individually and as a team.
The lights in the projection room were turned on again, and Brian and Michael took Jon Voight and five young actors to the stage, thanking everyone for the applause, of course, most of them were courtesy.
No one expected this to be a film that would send critics on their testosterone.
But it is indeed a qualified inspirational film.
Reporters and filmmakers have basically finalized their ideas on how to write manuscripts and comments when they go back.
Then the crew accepted a short interview.
Daniel was of course asked about recent rumors.
Of course, I am the actor who plays Billy Bob. Daniel just replied briefly, and the others did not say anything. The reporters could not delay the interview time for this gossip, so they had to expose it, but many people Make a note of everything in your heart.
...
It was almost early morning when we got home from Hilton, and Brian took the members to have a drink. Of course, Daniel, who was underage, could only drink fruit juice.
In the United States, you are only 21 years old to be allowed to drink alcoholic beverages.
The report will come out the next day, but the more important reviews of film critics will be released one after another in the next few weeks. In addition to these film critics who came to the scene, there are also some well-known film critics from all over the country. Everyone will get a digital copy, and their reviews will be a little slower to keep the buzz going until the film's release.
Kousa broke into Daniel's rented house early the next morning.
“Daniel is vague when asked.” —Los Angeles Times.
Eron?
No, it's the newspaper that was invited on the day of the premiere.
This was the first large-scale media to report on the Billy-swapping incident. Although it was still small compared to the leader of the New York Times, it was much higher than the previous unknown tabloids.
I don't know if this news has touched the sensitive point of the editor-in-chief. There is actually a huge page, and the pictures of Daniel before and after losing weight are very clear. They even hired facial recognition experts to identify whether the facial features belonged to the same person. These experts obviously had real facts, and they all believed that the two were the same person, but the Los Angeles Times still left a trace of aftertaste at the end, But the main creative team The silence and the ambiguity of Daniel himself still make people feel confused.
Cusa and Daniel celebrated his bad news with big media flamboyance.
In addition to the report on this news, there are actually other comments from Daniel, and they are all quite positive, but more or less he will say, If it is indeed 'Billy'.
For example, California Morning Post, As far as the performance of the actors is concerned, apart from the unqualified 'relatively brilliant' performance of Oscar winner Jon Voight, only Daniel Bob as Billy Bob Sandler shines, and in a couple of scenes with Jon, Daniel has barely lost. Of course, if he really is 'Billy'.
We need to grasp the degree of publicity and release the photos in time. Several influential newspapers have more or less mentioned this news.
Daniel's performance has been praised many times as the critics' comments slowly come out.
Coupled with the further spread of rumors of bag swapping, Daniel surpassed Paul on IMDB, ranking 61st, only a little lower than James, who was 54th.
Just when the film studio thought that this enthusiasm would be maintained until the official release, two accidents allowed School Blues, which was only a few days away, to enjoy the treatment of a popular movie.
Roger Ebert wrote a review of School Blues in his column and gave it three and a half stars.
What kind of concept is this, The Godfather 2 only got him three stars.
Although Roger's star ratings are always unreliable, his vast influence in the film critics is still shocking. Since his show partner Heathke fell ill, the health of this important film critic has been questioned by many people. Concerned and worried, in fact, he did greatly reduce the itinerary to go out to watch the film, and basically only attended the preview in Chicago.
It is surprising that School Blues got his attention. The comment said, This film contributes a relaxed but meaningful enough film for the summer teenagers. You can't let the children only go to see David Finn. Odd to learn something.
Roger barely mentions the actors, and the comments are very brief.
But neither the film studio nor mainstream New York newspapers let it go, and they seem to regard this movie as a potential work that may be forgotten.
When it was about to be released, College Blues unexpectedly gained a push from the influential New York media.
Fox could barely keep his mouth shut. According to their estimates, this can increase the box office by anywhere from several million to ten million.
In addition to Roger's surprise, another happened to Daniel.
He finally posted the fitness photos he recorded on the Internet.
How an overweight youth turns into a sexy and charming super handsome man is clearly and irrefutably displayed in front of everyone.
In the last photo, the sweat soaked the white T-shirt, showing the looming muscle outline along the bear's abdominal muscles.
The photo quickly went viral.
Want to be favored by a girl? You need to be like this!
Entertainment, fitness, women, youth, and online media quoted this picture and released countless news.
Daniel shot to No. 1 on IMDB's actor list almost immediately.
This is the first time he has fully broken into the eyes of his peers.
Even Campus Blues also rushed into the top30 of the film.
Seemingly overnight, Daniel became a superstar whose popularity exploded.
In fact, of course, this is not the case, and Daniel never expected a hype to make him any status.
Kusa was busy with Fox, and the release of fitness record photos was not planned. Their original way to calm the incident was to issue a collective statement and release photos of Daniel before he gained weight. The gap between the two is not that big , it can be seen that it is the same person. The reason why Cusa did this was to hold the initiative in his hands, not from the movie, but from the consideration of maximizing Daniel's own interests.
He's done a good job, and the name hanging high at the top of the list can attest to that.
As for Fox, they got the benefits too, so there's nothing to complain about.
School Blues, a movie with little influence, turned out to be a popular summer movie after various accidents, and it is indeed a movie suitable for watching at home.
...
How about it, which ones are more interesting?
In Hollywood, popularity can often be transformed into opportunities. The scripts received by Kusa started from scratch, and then doubled several times.
Daniel looked through and found that almost all of them were campus movies, musicals, and he really didn't have much impression.
In fact, he has a lot of research on Hollywood movies, but the more comprehensive and profound ones are all realistic themes. There are indeed very few such idol movies.
Forget it, let's talk about that later. Kusa was very excited, but still kept it a secret, I just got the first-day box office from Elon. Guess what it is?
Hollywood has long had a box office accumulation company that provides paid services for various distribution companies.
Seeing Kusa's excited gesture, Daniel couldn't help but pour cold water on him.
Cousa, I don't remember us signing a share agreement, oh no, I only have $10,000.
Cusa simply ignored him.
Nearly ten million! Kusa didn't care about his sarcasm at all. He is now completely immersed in the false sense of accomplishment that he has manipulated a miracle. Of course, he will wake up soon.
Ten million!
Daniel couldn't believe it either!
10 million on the first day, which means that if the movie's word-of-mouth does not collapse, it is expected to earn more than 80 million at the box office in the United States!
Fox really got a big surprise.
Soon Daniel's phone began to be bombarded intensively.
After triggering the photo craze, he found that he seemed to have become more important. If there was any news, someone would make a special call to communicate with him.
Kusa said everything was fine.
Both Michael and Walker came to announce the good news, and they just got the box office on the first day.
Hey, this is your first movie, and you have gained enough presence during the promotional period. Its box office is closely related to yours. You don't really only care about the cut. Kusa leaned comfortably on the sofa on, Another success, Daniel, nice to work with.
Daniel reached out to give him a high five, and also smiled.
In the evening, after the word got out, he even got a phone call from Francis - Peter Jackson's wife, a key figure in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, relaying Peter's congratulations.
