One Thousand Eight Hundred and Fifteen the Ultimate Unpopular

Is the best picture still in suspense?

After losing the best director and best actor regrettably in a row, "12 Years a Slave" has officially announced the launch of the competition for the best picture. Like "American Hustle", the strong momentum of the second stage of the awards season is only The blossoms are not fruitful, the thunder is heavy and the rain is small, but compared to the empty hands of "American Hustle", they have at least won a Best Adapted Screenplay Award. It is not too embarrassing, and this is the best consolation.

"American Hustle" and "12 Years a Slave" in the troika have fallen behind one after another, while "Gravity", which won eight Golden Man trophies tonight, thriving, swept all the way from the technical department to the best supporting actress The unexpected upset, and the best film editing in the bag, who can stop it from reaching the top now?

No!

Back then, "Avatar" lost to "The Hurt Locker", and it was already revealed in the technical department. Among the seven production technology departments, "Avatar" only got the best photography and the best visual effects, while "The Hurt Locker" With the best sound effects, the best sound editing and the best movie editing, the overall trend can be seen early on.

The "Titanic" has swept thousands of troops in the technical department.

This also means that "Gravity" will become another commercial masterpiece after "The Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King", which is undoubtedly a night worth remembering for Oscar.

Under the spotlight, Will Smith took the stage.

Will Smith?

It's Will Smith!

In the past three decades, countless black actors have emerged in Hollywood, but only Morgan Freeman, Denzel Washington and Will Smith can really be called top stars. Whether it is the status in the industry or the market appeal, they are the highest incomparable existence.

From the academy's arrangement of Will Smith as the best film award guest, many deep meanings can be interpreted. This is not a random arrangement, but it is not an arrangement to know the result of the award in advance. There's nothing tricky about it.

First of all, there is no way for the college to know the results of the awards in advance. Only the accounting firm responsible for counting the voting results knows. Even in the accounting firm, only the two staff who are ultimately responsible for escorting the list of winners know about it, ensuring that the suspense can be kept until the end. A moment can create the biggest surprise.

Secondly, the procedure for the academy to arrange award-giving guests is very cumbersome and complicated, and it must be started early. Considering the list of nominated guests and guests, and considering the status of award-giving guests, etc., all this has been done before the statistics of the award-winning results are completed. Arranged properly.

Therefore, the college has its own knowledge when arranging the award guests. The only exception is the acting department. All four awards have retained the tradition. The winners of the previous year will cross announce the results, but occasionally there may be cases where the winners of the previous year cannot attend the award ceremony. The academy also needs to arrange guests temporarily. .

On the whole, the academy is arranged according to the momentum of the entire awards season. To a certain extent, this reflects their prediction of the winning results. This is a summary of the public relations and wind direction within the academy.

For example, in 2007, Martin Scorsese, who was a strong leader in the second phase of the academy's public relations, was expected to realize his Oscar dream with "The Departed", and the academy arranged Steven Spielberg, George Lucas and Francis. -Ford Coppola, the three famous stars who were known alongside Martin as the "Four Directors of the 1980s", came to witness Martin's coronation.

This is without a doubt the best tribute!

But before the list of winners is announced, the Academy cannot be sure that Martin will actually win the award. This is just a prediction. But for media reporters, this is also the most authoritative prediction. They are always used to predicting the final trend of some important awards from the guest list, especially the best director and best picture.

Tonight, the academy invited Will Smith as the guest of honor,

The reason couldn't be simpler:

Judging from the momentum of the academy's public relations in the second stage, the summit of "12 Years a Slave" is a high probability event, so the academy invited the top and most recognizable superstars of black actors to appear, showing their love for "" Therefore, Allen made those jokes in the opening remarks.

However, the actual process of the awards ceremony was completely unexpected. The sweeping momentum of "Gravity" was almost unstoppable. Now the winner of the best picture has almost no suspense, and all the guests are ready to witness "Gravity". Gravity's coronation ceremony! They can even imagine that after the awards ceremony, the judges of the academy will encounter how turbulent, how hot and how sharp the rebukes will be for not choosing "12 years a slave".

As Allen said in the opening, you are all racial/ethnic/discriminatory/discriminatory.

At this time, seeing Will Smith on stage again, the expressions of the guests at the scene became interesting, and even Will himself felt a little uncomfortable.

Bradley Adams, a reporter for The New York Times, was watching a live broadcast of the awards ceremony at the official media center, but at the same time, his hands were pounding rapidly on the keyboard.

He knew what a frenzy was coming after tonight, because the other journalists in the media center were already gearing up and they were pounding the press release, and the content all had the same theme: a strong condemnation of the academy judges for ignoring Given the excellence of "Twelve Years a Slave", is the academy too "white"?

It has been confirmed that the "Los Angeles Times", "Variety", "San Francisco Chronicle", "Entertainment Weekly", "Empire" and other media will report on this topic. In fact, the "New York Times" is also on the same topic. The editor-in-chief called Bradley to write the manuscript, but Bradley refused. In the end, the editor-in-chief handed the manuscript to another senior reporter; as for Bradley Deli himself...

He wants to write on his own terms: Cheers to "Gravity"!

Although Bradley knew that this article might not be adopted by The New York Times, he still wanted to finish it, even if it was posted on his personal blog, it didn't matter, he still wanted his voice to be heard after all, After all, he is still willing to applaud the victory of "Gravity".

He firmly believes that "Gravity" is a work more worthy of recognition than "Twelve Years a Slave" not because "Twelve Years a Slave" is not good enough, but because of the cinema created by "Gravity" The movie viewing experience is a more important existence, which has important works for the future development of the movie industry!

All the thoughts in my mind flowed quickly along the fingertips like a spring, and turned into texts on the screen through the keyboard.

Then, Bradley's hands stopped, and the sound of typing on the keyboards in the media center stopped collectively because Will Smith was about to reveal the answer.

"The winner of the 86th Academy Award for Best Picture is..." After opening the envelope and drawing out the card, Will didn't delay any further, he just scanned the card, his expression paused for a moment, but he didn't wait any longer. Will's smile rises as the audience savours what this little pause means, something eccentric and fantastic, "'Twelve Years a Slave,' Brad Pitt, Steve McQueen Because, dede-gardner..."

What?

and many more!

who?

The entire Dolby Theater and the entire media center were solemn and quiet, only for a second, but this second of pause and silence was like a century, and the shock and confusion rippled deep in everyone's eyes. Come on, the first reaction in my mind is the same: Did I hear it wrong?

The "Gravity" that swept the eight golden statues tonight, and the "Gravity" that won the three heavyweight trophies for Best Film Editing, Best Supporting Actress and Best Director in a row tonight, the momentum of winning tonight is unstoppable. The "Gravity" of "Gravity", which is about to write a brand new history tonight... How did he lose the best picture?

In a trance, time seems to be reversed, and it is back to the Oscars two years ago. The "artist" who only won the best original soundtrack and the best costume design beat "Hugo" and ascended the throne of the best picture. A cry of exclamation, still vivid in my mind, and now history repeats itself!

The whole awards ceremony only received one "Twelve Years a Slave" for the best adapted screenplay, and actually defeated "Gravity" to reach the Oscar!

Everything seems to be going according to the trend of the second phase of the college PR, everything seems to fit the language of Allen's opening phase, everything seems to be the standard ending that everyone expects... But why does it feel a little wrong now?

Relying only on the powerful advantages of the "race card", it has successfully reversed the "gravity" that has been fully praised by various departments. The best film statuette of "Twelve Years a Slave" can really be called a "Best"? In the case of winning only one best adapted screenplay, "12 Years a Slave" failed to win the favor of the academy judges in other projects, but still topped the best picture, so what is the meaning of "best picture"? How should it be explained?

and many more. and many more!

The impact was so powerful that everyone was stunned for a short time. One second, even if it was just one second, created an unparalleled tsunami.

All the reporters in the media center were stunned. After a second, they looked down at the manuscript on their computer screen. The foul language began to burst out incessantly, and they collectively opened a brand new document to make it even crazier and more crazier. With an urgent gesture, start writing the manuscript.

It's messed up, it's all messed up.

Bradley was stunned for about three seconds. The deep loss made him unable to recover. He took a deep breath. He looked at his computer screen again, thought for a moment, and was still in the original position. On the basis of his manuscript, he continued to write, and he still insisted on his own idea: "Gravity" is more worthy of praise than "Twelve Years a Slave".

As for "12 Years a Slave", winning is still a win, at least for them, this is good news.
