Chapter 1842: 1842 Challenging Hegemony
If someone said a few years ago that the current Hollywood could be dominated by a single top superstar family, it would probably cause laughter and ridicule from countless people, because in the film industry, the most important thing is newcomers and stars; but now, Some people say that Hugo has established an unshakable dynasty in today's Hollywood, and there must be very few people who question it, because Hugo has reached such heights with facts time and time again.
Unknowingly, "Hugo Lancaster" has become a benchmark for all contemporary actors and works, not to mention catching up, even if it can keep pace with Hugo, this is a remarkable achievement, and it is also The fundamental reason why Tom Cruise and Brad Pitt are mentioned so frequently: People are always denying that the "Hugo Dynasty" has become an established fact, and at the same time they are always tirelessly seeking a way to impact the hegemony of the Hugo Dynasty. challenger.
In the summer of 1997, "Jurassic Park 2: The Lost World" was considered to have the ability to hit "Independence Day". "The data of the same period proved that the miracle of last summer is still difficult to be replicated.
Now, it is generally believed that "Batman and Robin" is the strongest challenger. If this work can't do it, then the possibility of repeating last year's brilliant achievements this year will be infinitely close to zero. The collision of Joe Schumacher, George Clooney and "Batman" Bruce Wayne definitely has the domineering face of a king.
In fact, not long ago, in the April issue of this year's "People" magazine, they called George "the best candidate to break through Hugo's hegemony", and the 36-year-old George has the same relationship with Hugo, Tom, and Bruce. Ladd has a completely different temperament. Behind the elegant elegance is a masculine breath that makes women's knees weak. It not only makes women blush and heartbeat, but also makes men admire him. This charm is precisely what Hugo and others do not possess.
It is no exaggeration to say that "Batman and Robin" is hot before it is shown, and there are too many topics to look forward to. Uma's remarks in the interview further stimulated the enthusiasm of the media. She repeatedly mentioned the possibility of this new work breaking the "Independence Day" box office miracle, and even discussed the possibility of George challenging Hugo's hegemony. Looking forward to Values have started to boil over.
"Independence Day" smashed "Batman Forever" box office record, and now "Batman & Robin," the sequel to "Batman Forever," is back to complete the lead? This can definitely be called the perfect script!
The media is buzzing, and almost everyone is looking forward to George's transition from the small screen to the big screen. In fact, in the past two years, George's film resources are very rich. He collaborated with Michelle Pfeiffer on "One. Fine. Day" and Quentin Tarantino on "Kill Out". Dawn (From. Dusk. Till. Dawn)", and Nicole - Kidman collaborated on "The Peacemaker (The. Peacemaker)", which can definitely be called the scenery, and now all of this will be in "Bat Heroes and Robin ushered in an outbreak, which means that George is likely to replace Brad after a strong rise, and form a new tripartite confrontation with Tom and Hugo!
The uproarious discussion is dotted with this year's summer vacation, which is full of countless highlights, which makes people excited and excited. For the media, "George vs. Hugo" is just another round of hype and gimmicks; but for George himself, this is the first challenge to reach the top.
George Clooney will never forget that Tracy's help in his desperation gave him the opportunity to star in "ER Story" and the opportunity to create a brilliant career. It can be said that Tracy single-handedly created his achievements today. For him, Tracy is not just as simple as Bole, but can even be called a savior.
The past between Tracy and Hugo is not a secret in the circle at all, and Tracy's desperate gamble ended in ashes, which made many people sigh. Therefore, George has been waiting for this day to stand upright in front of Hugo, dialogue, confrontation, and confrontation with an equal attitude, let Hugo taste the pain of failure, and repay Tracy's kindness .
Of course, George is very calm, he will not act like a fool, desperate for a Tracy Jacobs who has completely disappeared from the industry, and he will not block his career prospects aimlessly revenge However, within the scope of ability, admiring Hugo's appearance of suffering, and expressing anger for Tracy, is just a matter of little effort. What's more, Hugo currently dominates the entire Hollywood, which is the goal that any challenger trying to climb to the top needs to face, and George is naturally no exception.
Since "Pulp Fiction" created the box office myth, in the past two years, no one has been able to shake the absolute status of Hugo, not even Tom Cruise. George wants to accomplish this feat, he wants to personally escort Hugo down the altar, he wants to step on Hugo's shoulders to the pinnacle of his career, he wants to experience the air on top of the world...he will never hide My own ambition, because I don't want to be a general's soldier, is not a good soldier.
However, in the face of Hugo, who is in full swing, it is not a wise choice to go head-to-head. If you are not careful, you may shatter yourself to pieces. So when Joe found George, Joe found George with Batman and Robin, he knew this was his chance. The outstanding director who has reawakened the vitality of the Batman series, the comic characters loved by the masses, and the simple and crude popcorn commercial movie... All these collide and can make his personality. Sensual charm is brought into full play. This is not only his chance, but his best chance.
"George, now everyone is comparing you to Hugo, how do you feel?" Jay Leno sat on the live broadcast of his "Tonight Show", took the initiative of the conversation calmly, and asked with a smile. However, the problem is faintly thorny.
Faced with such a difficult problem, George was not flustered at all. He looked at Uma, Arnold and others sitting beside him, and smiled, "Sexy?" A question and answer made everyone on the scene laugh Get up, George then went on to say, "Hugo is a great actor, everyone knows that, so, to be able to put my name next to Hugo's name, I feel very sexy. Sensual. "
Jie was also amused by George's words, "I hope Brad won't mind his name being taken away by George." A simple sentence easily took the initiative, and the audience burst into laughter again, "I Flipping through several major newspapers yesterday, I found that almost everyone is discussing the box office issue. People are expecting that 'Batman and Robin' can break the box office miracle created by 'Independence Day'. I don't know yourselves How do you feel?"
Everyone thought that George would answer—after all, he is the actor who plays Bruce Wayne, but George took the initiative to look at Arnold, and handed this hot potato to this veteran who has been in Hollywood for more than ten years, "Wow Oh, that was a tall order, and I hope the audience enjoys our episode of Batman? Because we injected a lot of different new elements into the movie, satisfying the expectations of comic book fans and ensuring other audiences able to enjoy the work.”
Although Arnold's answer was correct, it was a bit rigid, especially with his somewhat stiff expression, which seemed too formal and did not fit the atmosphere of "The Tonight Show", so Jay looked at George again. This time George did not evade, "As everyone said, the box office of 'Independence Day' was a miracle, so we can only pray for a miracle to happen. I hope Bruce Wayne's appeal can give us some help. "
George shrugged his shoulders lightly, with a smile on the corner of his mouth, and made fun of it easily and freely, which immediately made the audience burst into laughter. The effect was obviously much better than that of Arnold. But Jie noticed that although George didn't answer directly, he meant that "Batman and Robin" was expected to break the box office record of "Independence Day". The point is—even if people understood what George was saying, they wouldn't be offended by him.
Clearly, George was a born politician. Politicians always know to use the most correct and simplest method to achieve their goals without making the public disgusted.
Jie felt the hidden sharpness in George's words, and he couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat for Hugo. Unlike Brad Pitt's youthful and impulsive nature, George's sophistication and intelligence are obviously enough to become Hugo's biggest competitor.
"Robin and Poison Ivy have already felt powerless, and I hope that Freeze can rise up." Thinking back to thinking, Shangjie didn't pause in his words, and teased back with a calm face, making everyone laugh . But George raised his eyes slightly and took a deep look at Jie, because George also felt the meaning of Jie's words aimed at him, but George didn't mind, just smiled calmly.
"For Uma, this is obviously a difficult period of time." George also retorted lightly, but pushed Uma out in a blink of an eye.
Obviously, George needs to create more topics, and Uma is a very good pawn. Uma glanced at George, but she wasn't surprised at all. She just smiled cooperatively, "As long as Hugo doesn't think I'm making malicious hype, I'm fine." one shot.
Jie said with a smile, "I can't imagine the day when Hugo also needs to hype." He calmly defuses the attack for Hugo. But in his heart, Jie sighed softly, "Batman and Robin" are really the Avengers, and they are coming in a menacing way. I don't know if his old friend will be able to resist this time.
Bruce Wayne vs. Hugo Lancaster? This is definitely a tough fight.
