Chapter 413: details and figure
But actually—
The official forced the death of the fan, isn\'t this sentence not true enough?
Not to mention the author who wrote the "Harry Potter" fanfiction, anyone who has read the "Harry Potter" fanfiction will be able to find that, as a series that has ended, its world view seems to be Complete, but full of bugs.
Take Harry Potter\'s parents as an example. According to J.K. Rowling, the couple died unfortunately at the age of 21. It was the last day of October, which was October 31st. .
At the same time, Harry Potter at that time was just one year and three months old.
On the surface, there is no problem with this set of data.
But if you do a simple calculation, you will find that there is no logic in it.
Because Lily Potter gave birth to Harry Potter at the age of twenty and conceived him at the age of nineteen.
And J.K. Rowling gave her graduation age at Hogwarts as eighteen years and five months...
Seeing this, some people may not understand why this age is outrageous.
After all, according to Half-Blood Prince Snape\'s memory, Lily Potter and James Potter were already in love at Hogwarts.
Isn’t it a very reasonable thing to marry after graduation and have children after marriage?
but…
You need to know! When J.K. Rowling described the legendary story of Harry Potter being able to resist Voldemort without dying! That was a strong rendering of Voldemort\'s previous opponents! That is, Harry Potter\'s parents! How strong!
In J.K. Rowling\'s writing, Lily Potter was targeted by Voldemort after graduating from Hogwarts. She escaped from Voldemort\'s pursuit three times, and during this period, she also dealt with Harry Potter. Due to the death and funeral of grandparents, I went to the wedding of my eldest sister Penny, and was heartbroken because the other party refused to let her be a bridesmaid...
This is kind of funny, right?
From Lily Potter\'s graduation to being pregnant with Harry Potter, there is only a gap of eight months!
And in the gap of eight months, two red events can be done! A white matter! Repelling Voldemort three times by the way?
As the most dangerous dark wizard in history, is he still able to do this or that while being targeted by him?
Then is the No-Nosed Monster too rubbish, or the Potters too awesome?
Reader Baisi is not a sister.
So I sent a letter to ask.
When J.K. Rowling received an inquiry letter from a reader and found that she had written a shocking BUG, she could only go back and eat the book, patching frantically in "Harry Potter and the Cursed Child", which lengthened Potter\'s life. The couple fought against Voldemort, and said that in the magical age shrouded in darkness at that time, it was a reasonable thing for pregnant women to stick to their posts!
In this way...
The original author has spoken out, so the BUG is not a BUG, right?
But even so, similar contradictions are still emerging in "Harry Potter".
And when the authors of the original work started to frantically eat books and make revisions, the argument that the so-called real and credible world is the fundamental attraction is simply untenable. Yes, in fact, there are only people.
The cute Harry Potter, the smart and beautiful Miss Beaver, the stupid Ron who is a bit of a boy, Malfoy, the young master born in the Death Eater family, and the timid and fearful Neville...
When these children with their own characteristics gather together, everyone can find themselves in them.
The sense of substitution produced by matching personalities and appearances can make the surrounding magical world more friendly, and when the cold Snape and the kind principal Dumbledore appear one after another, the good teachers and bad ones in the school Teacher, it will allow the audience of the right age to find every shadow in their life from the movie...
And this is actually the key to the attraction of "Harry Potter".
When audiences who have never read books think these actors are cute, and feel that these actors are very similar to their past or current experiences, the interesting magical world will have room to play.
There is a saying that a tall building rises from the ground.
If it weren’t for these guys with distinct characteristics to capture the hearts of the audience, wouldn’t the so-called restoration of the scene be a joke?
Because only if you like it first, you will study it later.
And if you don\'t go deep into it, who can discover that the mysterious and silent Hogwarts is full of countless secrets?
Who would know that countless big names were born in the solemn and solemn restaurant?
Who would know that there are poignant stories buried in the mysterious basement?
Who would expect the true state of each character when they look at the Mirror of Erised?
Although in the era when visual effects are just emerging, no matter how bad a movie is, it can still get a super high box office, but if you want to change from a single success to a series success, the most important thing is that some people don\'t care about it. But love the details.
If you can succeed by focusing on visual effects, then it would be a miracle that "Tomb Raider" can\'t get the box office of "Harry Potter"!
It is a tragedy that "Pearl Harbor" cannot break the box office record of "Titanic"!
"Jurassic Park" will not be more and more broken!
Therefore, even from a professional point of view, the completion of the "Harry Potter" series needs to be improved, because its rhythm, camera movement and editing can be improved, but in the eyes of the creators, That\'s actually enough.
after all…
Movies are never made for a small group of film critics and judges!
It doesn’t matter whether it’s a business or an award, it will be pushed into the market in the end to seek approval!
In this case, instead of working **** the camera and editing that can only be understood by professionals, it is better to spend time on the selling point that the audience prefers, and wait for the silly Ron to fly the wizard flag, Harry and the little **** When cheering him on one after another, this scene that countless adults would think is fake can still make the audience very moved.
In the end, Harry fought against Voldemort. The act of defending peace with both hands is indeed a bit exaggerated, but...
is equally passionate!
Because cool special effects are not what the audience needs right now!
Now all they can see is the friendship, courage and determination of the children!
"Wow, boom!"
"Wow, boom!"
When the lights were turned on again, the auditorium in the midnight show suddenly became commotion, cheering and discussing.
"Steven is really amazing! The disappearing glass in the novel was restored by him! I thought the scene where Harry talked to the snake would be cut by the production team, because it was too much for teenage children to come into contact with snakes. It\'s dangerous, but I didn\'t expect them to throw Dudley in! This really surprised me!"
"Yes, yes, there is also Diagon Alley! When Hagrid hit the bricks with a pink umbrella, the wizarding world that suddenly appeared scared me! I was as emotional as Harry! It was so amazing !"
"Scared? Don\'t you think it\'s cute? Hagrid with a pink umbrella! Girly!"
"And the Sorting Hat! And the Sorting Hat! Wow! That visual effect is really good! Especially when Harry wears it and mutters! The way he mutters is so cute! I love him so much! "
"Oh! Don\'t you think that the appearance of Voldemort and Professor Quirrell sharing the same body in the end is too scary? I was frightened when I first appeared on the stage!"
"Ahhh! I thought I was the only one who was scared! I didn\'t expect you to be too?"
"In the past, when we found out that others didn\'t have eyes, we would complain about whether their eyes were on the back of their heads. Now it\'s fine! In the future, we can directly say whether you have been possessed by Voldemort!"
"Hahaha~ Isn\'t that just four eyes?"
"Yes, yes, yes! It\'s still the four eyes that collapse after being touched twice!"
Listening to the turbulent conversation, Roland, who had no intention of participating in it, led his wife out of the theater.
And when he was going out, the guy who had been interlocking his fingers suddenly stopped in his tracks.
Such a situation made Roland turn his head in confusion, "What\'s wrong?"
But as soon as the words were out of his mouth, he found his wife had been staring at the surrounding sales area in the theater. The crowd of people in the scene, a group of seventeen or eighteen-year-old boys playing fencing with magic wands, also made Roland grin. mouthed.
because-
The surrounding area is also made by their family.
And the profit here is the way around the book.
Since we don’t go to the movies, it means that we don’t need to share money with Warner, who invested half of the investment.
"What\'s the matter, do you want to play too?" Roland approached his wife and asked with a smile.
Just as he was about to wave to the bodyguards and ask them to buy a set of the same peripherals, Kate shook her head, stopped her husband from throwing coins, and said, "No, I\'m just a little weird."
"What\'s strange?" Roland was curious.
"It\'s strange that the filming of this movie is actually quite childish, but why do so many people like it?"
Roland laughed at Kate\'s words, because after so many years, when he discarded the fan filter and looked at the movie from the perspective of capital, he also felt that the movie was not as good as some ordinary action movies, but It is this denial that makes him more aware of what Steven Spielberg has taught himself over the past few years.
"Because, Steven will put down airs.
Since the main audience of this movie is children, it is natural to make this movie from the perspective of children.
So, if you look at it from the perspective of adults, it may be very childish, but from the perspective of children, this is a classic.
As a director, you should deeply realize that one work cannot satisfy everyone.
So choosing or choosing has become something they have to do.
They can ignore the evaluation of their peers, but they have to listen to the voice of the audience.
Only when they keep shooting things that the selected audience loves to watch, that success will always be with them. "
Roland didn\'t know if Kate understood his explanation, but he already knew why many people couldn\'t be directors well.
because…
Can\'t let go of my figure.
because…
Don\'t have the guts to accept failure.
When a director has achieved unimaginable success in a certain genre, lying in the gentle hometown and gnawing on his laurels has become their favorite and most willing to do.
Like George Lucas.
One "Star Wars" made him famous, and after that, he enjoyed life.
Also like Martin Scorsese.
The gangster movie started, the gangster movie grew, and the gangster movie lasted forever. Even in the process, he filmed "The Aviator", "Shutter Island" and "Hugo", but the twists and turns of "The Irishman" and "Flower Moon" "Killer" brought him back to his old ways.
Although they are all masters, compared with the only director with a cumulative box office of over 10 billion since the birth of Steven Spielberg, what they are inferior to is trial and error.
Why can Steven Spielberg shoot any genre?
Because he also made a mistake along the way!
People only saw the success of "Jaws" and "Close Encounters of the Third Kind", but did not see the blood loss of his "1941".
People only think that he is highly sought after for "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Jurassic Park", but they didn\'t find that when he was filming "The Lockdown", he was sprayed by the media and the audience like a street mouse...
The so-called open-ended success is based on the perseverance of not looking back after hitting the south wall, and it is precisely because he has been criticized by the media, abandoned by the audience, and cursed by film critics, so his figure, will be softer...
Anyway, I have suffered all the hardships! Then when I\'m shooting a new project, I\'m more free to do whatever I want!
Did the audience feel that he was out of the crowd when he was competing for the prize?
Please!
I didn’t take this photo for you to see!
Film critics think he is too naive when embracing business?
Please!
I didn’t show this to you either!
When he made it clear that this movie is to serve a group, all the slander is just paper garbage, and while being fearless, it can also create a classic!
After all, the so-called classics are meant to be considered excellent by one-third of the people, and fair by one-third of the people...
As for the remaining third?
Has nothing to do with the big picture.
What about those directors who can\'t see through and are shameless?
It can only be incompetent and furious when being attacked.
After watching "Harry Potter and the Philosopher\'s Stone", Roland didn\'t care about the public opinion outside.
Although he has long forgotten the content of the Chris Columbus version, and re-watching "Harry Potter" has not regained the joy of the year, but he still believes that a film made by a director who can let go will disappoint.
With the box office feedback brought about by the unified release in the UK and North America around the world, the high numbers are satisfying.
On the first day of release, the North American box office reported 32 million and the UK box office reported 4.8 million.
The following Saturday, an increase of more than 4 million brought the cumulative box office in North America to 68 million, while the increase of 11 points in the UK was not small, pushing the total to 10.12 million.
But as the third day comes...
The single-day score of 41 million in North America and 6.7 million in the UK made this movie directly exceed 100 million!
Three days!
Global box office 125 million!
Steven Spielberg became the second director in the world to break 100 million in the first weekend!
And the first one...
People have hung up!
Note: ① There are a lot of bugs in "Harry Potter". The most outrageous age is actually the Black family. In the genealogy drawn by J.K. Rowling, Bella\'s father was born in 1938, while Bella was born Born in one year, with simple addition and subtraction, it is known that Bella\'s father had Bella (her mother was pregnant) when he first entered Hogwarts at the age of twelve, and Malfoy\'s mother, who was also Bella\'s younger sister, was Born in 1955, plus Andromeda, who was removed from the family tree in the middle, it means that Bella\'s mother didn\'t do anything at Hogwarts, and she spent all her years in school giving birth...② "One 9/41 is a war film, written by Robert Zemeckis for the old man. Although mathematically speaking, this movie did not hit the market, but it was the result of re-screening. According to the release, re-screening It is indeed a loss. ③The box office market in the UK is indeed small. In reality, "Harry Potter and the Sorcerer\'s Stone" has a box office of more than 66 million.
