MTL - Movie Master-Chapter 1003 summit summit
The messy Golden Globe nomination list has once again become a microcosm of this year's awards season. Even "Fury Road" is deeply mired in the quagmire of this power game in Hollywood, and it seems that after "Brokeback Mountain" After the failure of "Fury Road", people began to become conservative about the prospect of "Fury Road". Unlike "Titanic" and "Lord of the Rings 3", "Fury Road" is not just a cult classic that breaks the mainstream framework. It's just a work, and the controversy reflected in the movie has hit Hollywood's fatal wound:
The group of old scholars who hold the lifeblood of the college have distinctive characteristics, with an average age of over sixty-five years old—or even older. The whites occupy an absolute advantage and have held the power of the college for more than two decades. They may not be devout Catholics or Christians, but they are covered in It exudes a decadent and conservative atmosphere. And most importantly, ninety-nine percent of them are all men.
In other words, the rebellious work "Fury Road" has almost criticized all the old academics who can offend it. It is not only shocking, but also deviant. It can be said that it is a suicide .
What "Brokeback Mountain" wants to break is only the stubborn attitude of the conservative party in the college, but "Fury Road" wants to break these white men's control of Hollywood power. generally. There is no reason and no reason is needed. Brutal suppression is the only solution.
Of course, it is already the 21st century, and people are still looking forward to it: those old scholars can realize that they have been out of touch with the times, and if they want to truly keep pace with the times, they must open their hearts and accept different ideas. Possibly—maybe they cannot accept new things like "Brokeback Mountain" that deviate from the so-called religious beliefs, but at least they should accept the trend of the times of cultural diversity, minority mainstreaming, and heterogeneous popularization, whether they accept it or not, the discrimination caused by group differences is gradually dying out.
Especially after the absurd ending of "Brokeback Mountain" fell at the finish line last year, the serious problems exposed can no longer be ignored. Big dream?
But, unfortunately, the first half of this year's awards season is still disappointing. The news media, sociologists, professional film critics, and the general public are all shouting for "Fury Road" and running around. The top seed of the awards season is almost unmatched; It is a cold treatment within Hollywood, and the list of nominations for the Golden Globes can be glimpsed at the tip of the iceberg. "Fury Road" not only lags behind "Babel" and "The Departed", it even lags behind the little-known "Dream Girl". Broken glasses all over the floor.
The reason why the Golden Globe Awards is called the "Oscar weathervane" is because the Hollywood Foreign Press Association has a wide network of contacts and close personal relationships with high-level and senior personnel of the academy. They often have a more accurate grasp of the academy's interior and the direction of the academy. Now it seems that the list of nominations for the Golden Globe Awards is the direction of the awards season so far-the academy is still unwilling to compromise, even more disgusted than "Brokeback Mountain", and selectively ignores "Fury Road".
But, is it because last year's moral kidnapping angered these old pedants, but in the end they themselves became a joke, making Lance win the first best supporting actor statuette; or because "Fury Road" stung them The wounds, the sense of shame, shame, and anger are intertwined and surging, making them issue a banning order in frustration? No one can know the real reason and the specific situation. We can only get a glimpse of one or two from the nomination list of the Golden Globe Awards, and then tacitly tacitly express it.
On the other hand, no one can ignore the grievances between the Golden Globe Awards and Lance—in case, it is only a one-in-a-million chance. The attitude of the academy towards "Fury Road" is positive, but Hollywood foreign countries The Journalists Association refused to bow to Lance, so it ignored "Fury Road" during the nomination stage, and gave the "Queen" all the awards as compensation. This possibility is not out of the question.
No one will ignore it—accurately speaking, after the nomination list came out, everyone immediately thought of Lance's entanglement with the Golden Globes. For four consecutive years, Lance has become the most shining superstar in the United States, but for four consecutive years, Lance has also missed the Golden Globe Awards Ceremony-Although this year's awards ceremony has not yet been held, due to the close shooting of "Invincible Hulk", Lance His absence also seemed to be expected. This is tantamount to a shame for the Golden Globes.
As the most entertaining and topical comprehensive awards ceremony in the United States, everyone knows that the Golden Globe Awards lacks authority, but it is an annual carnival party that no one will miss, and it is harmonious Why not enjoy an evening of feasting while still promoting the Oscars further?
However, Lance repeatedly failed to show face and missed the ceremony, which has been the case since "City of God", which really embarrassed the Hollywood Foreign Press Association.
What's worse is that Lance's rise in the past few years has been a bit too fast, and he didn't become popular overnight as a **** symbol like Jessica Alba, but step by step Climbing upwards, it seems that before he has time to react, Lance has become the most powerful filmmaker in the United States, from producer to director, from screenwriter to actor, and his influence covers all aspects—in other words, he is the golden An important person who must not be ignored in the ball award, otherwise it will be deceitful.
This also made Lance's absence the focus of media attention, and even the focus of audience discussion. At every Golden Globe Awards ceremony, Lance, who is not present, has the highest sense of presence of the night, which really pushes the Hollywood Foreign Press Association into an uncomfortable and embarrassing position.
This year, Lance is in Los Angeles, and the studio of "The Incredible Hulk" chose Burbank, which is close at hand. If Lance is really willing to attend the Golden Globe Awards, it will only be a matter of one night, and the filming will not be delayed at all; but so far, neither the Chaos Films official nor Cole Grinder has responded to the Hollywood Foreign Press Association. It seems that the Golden Globes are not taken seriously at all. Now, even if you are blind, you can't hide it.
Therefore, the Hollywood Foreign Press Association simply broke the jar, which caused the strange phenomenon of the nomination list. Although the possibility is small, it still exists.
After the nomination list for the 64th Golden Globe Awards was announced, there was no bustling scene like in previous years, and there were more whispers, and it seemed that even the discussions started to be quieter involuntarily.
Some were discussing the possibility of Lance's appearance at this year's awards ceremony, which is infinitely diminishing amid the gloomy atmosphere of the nomination list; The season is really too weird, it doesn't look like a big year or a small year, the trend seems to have no clue at all; some people are discussing whether "Infernal Walker" and "Babel Tower" are worthy of this Some people are discussing the embarrassing position of Clint Eastwood this year; some people are discussing what kind of work "Dreamgirls" is, which is comparable to "Letters from Iwo Jima". so what...
In 2006, in this low-key, restless, depressing and apprehensive atmosphere, it slowly passed through the fingertips. In 2007, the first ray of sunrise fell without warning. Before people had time to prepare, it was another One year's calendar turned over, and the turbulent but full of surprises in 2006 finally came to an end.
Contrary to the undercurrents of the award season, in the latest Forbes Hollywood Power Rankings, Lancelot Strelo has quietly come to the championship, ranking second impressively It's Disney's new CEO, Robert Iger. In the evaluation, Lance not only received countless attentions as an artist, but also leveraged Hollywood's levers as the CEO of Chaos Films, and his influence was still rising.
What's more interesting is that on the "Forbes" global power list~www.novelbuddy.com~Lance is also ranked 39th, this is the only entertainment industry practitioner among the top 50, The highest ranking since then is Oprah Winfrey's No. 64. The frenzy of controversy caused by the work "Fury Road" in the world is undoubtedly thought-provoking. The rapid climb has also attracted the attention of the list.
Regardless of the nomination list for the Golden Globes or the development of Oscar prospects, no one can deny that Lance, under the circumstances, was the most shining figure in 2006, and everyone else was under his light , are out of shape.
"People" magazine awarded Lance the title of the world's sexiest man in 2006. This is also the second time since the magazine began to select the title, after John-Kennedy-Jr. (John-Kennedy-Jr. Not an actor, but also the first director, but also the first producer and screenwriter.
In the content of the selection, the magazine exclaimed: Lancelot is the darling of God, squandering his talent recklessly, challenging people's bottom line recklessly, but brilliantly illuminating every corner of the night. People lament his handsomeness as an actor, but what they admire more is his jaw-dropping artistic soul. He has a special kind of light about him, not a movie star, not an athlete, not a hero, but when he enters a room, that aura can easily light up the whole room, he is not anyone, just "Strello" .
From "Forbes" to "People", this is just one aspect of 2006. Even authoritative media such as "Time", "New York Times" and "Los Angeles Times" all lamented unanimously: This is the story of Lance. The year, there is no dispute!
