Chapter six hundred and twenty seventh

The premiere of "Alien vs. Predator 2" ended. Francis Lawrence and Paula Patton walked out of the theater together and were immediately surrounded by a large number of entertainment reporters. In just a moment, the sound of pressing the shutter was connected, and the lights flashed and reflected as bright as daylight, they seemed to have become the center of the world.

Francis Lawrence liked this feeling very much, so he didn't mean to leave immediately. Instead, he stood here and answered several questions asked by the reporter.

Paula Patton smiled with a smile, looking particularly well-educated. From the moment she walked on the premiere red carpet tonight, she felt that she would become the focus of Hollywood!

At least this weekend will be!

"What kind of thing do you think is a bit more terrifying? Is it a threat that takes place tens of millions of miles away? Or a war that takes place at your doorstep? Obviously, we all think it's time to bring Predator and Alien into a normal lifestyle, which is very important, at least you haven't seen similar plot arrangements in any movies, and you'll find that there is no so-called 'safe area' here, even your own back garden."

Francis Lawrence was in a great mood and said a little more: "These terrifying creatures really appeared on the street in front of us, so the whole story became 'possible anywhere in the United States'. It was a beautiful town that made you look familiar, but suddenly became the center stage of an epic war, and it was accompanied by a massacre that they might never understand, bloody rivers of blood."

Then many reporters asked some questions about the "ultimate alien". Francis Lawrence answered these questions with a little pride before getting in the car and leaving.

Sitting in the car, he was a little proud when he thought of the reporters' eagerly asking about the "Ultimate Alien".

Most of this "ultimate alien" comes from his conception.

As early as before the film started promotion, "Ultimate Alien" became a favorite part of the movie fans' discovery.

From appearance to characteristics, including design concepts, everything about the "Ultimate Alien" has been set up by the crew and Twentieth Century Fox. All those involved must keep it until the film is released today and give the audience a surprise.

When he first joined the crew, the "ultimate alien" in the script was designed as a mixed-blood descendant of the Iron-Devouring Warrior and the alien. It was simply inexplicable. Can the alien and the Iron-Devouring Warrior be together to give birth to offspring?

It’s scary to think about it. San Fernando Valley doesn’t dare to make such films, right?

Therefore, the "ultimate alien" he designed is an alien hatched in the body of the Iron Desert, which absorbed some host's personalities and characteristics, roughly 80% of the Iron Desert and 20% of the Iron Desert.

The "Ultimate Alien" has a rigid external structure of the alien, acidic blood, a scorpion-like tail and a hidden mouth; and what comes from the Predator is an additional jaw and terrifying dreadlocks.

More importantly, the DNA obtained by the Iron-Devouring Warrior on the "Ultimate Alien" changed the alien's reproductive method. He gave up the traditional "queen system" of this race, entered the host's body from his face, and broke through the host's chest... After circulating over and over again, he completely invented a more aggressive and efficient reproductive system.

Thinking of this, Francis Lawrence couldn't help but have an idea: although he was not the creator of the alien, he gave the alien a new life!

Or many years later, when people mention the Father of Alien, they are talking about not only Ridley Scott, but also the name Francis Lawrence!

The car passed by a huge billboard. Francis Lawrence saw the advertisement for "I am a Legend" on the billboard through the window. Matthew Horner walked on the ruined streets of New York with a dog.

"Ha..." He showed a slightly sarcastic smile inexplicably. The box office of "Alien vs. Predator 2" may not be able to compete with "I am a Legend", but it is definitely not as superficial as the films starring Matthew Horner!

He gives this monster movie depth that never before!

When he was preparing for this movie, he always kept thinking about what kind of reaction would people react when they encounter the most extreme environment? He read some information, including hurricanes and fires, and observed ordinary people, including firefighters, police officers, teachers, how they became heroes in disasters, so he gave the film another theme beyond monster melee, and wanted to explore a degree and scope through this story how humans will protect their families, who will they fight for, or die for?

There is also the depth of environmental protection and ecology. He changed the Iron Defeater from a "hunter" to a "cleaner". Similar to the character of "ecological environment warrior", the Iron Defeater will not leave any opportunity that may subvert the ecological balance of this planet, which gives this character a kind of dignity and nobility.

"Maybe the future predator will also be stamped with the mark of Francis Lawrence." He murmured in his heart.

"Alien vs. Predator 2" is released in North America as a new film. Those survey companies that use statistics and sales data as their main business have already heard of the news.

Before the premiere, Howard Rashford was shaking among the fans. As a first-line market investigator at Inema Sore, he kept asking about the opinions and ratings of these fans who had just watched "Alien vs. Predator 2".

Those who can attend the premiere are undoubtedly fans of Alien or Predator. These people's evaluation of related movies will naturally be much higher than that of ordinary audiences.

"If you were asked to score..." He asked a middle-aged movie fan in his forties, "What kind of rating would you give "Alien vs. Predator 2"?"

The movie fan said without hesitation, "!No,-!" He received the small gift and added, "This is the worst movie I have ever seen about Alien and Predator!"

The movie fan walked away without looking back, as if he had no nostalgia for the video he had just watched.

Howard Rashford then found another middle-aged movie fan. Alien and the Iron Warrior were born for more than 20 years, and the fans were undoubtedly a bit older.

The middle-aged movie fan was very calm, "This video is so disappointing. The alien does not look like an alien, and the Iron-Devoured Warrior does not look like an Iron-Devoured Warrior. I don't want to give a rating, it shouldn't appear at all."

After saying that, he didn't even ask for a small gift, so he shook his head and left.

Howard Rashford looked at the fan: How disappointed are you in the film to be too lazy to even give the rating?

Then, he asked more movie fans, and none of them had more than + ratings, and even many abusers.

"This tm is too dark. Ninety percent of the scenes are all night. I even found a black man to be the heroine. Who can see clearly? The director has a problem with his head and is completely shady!"

"Alien and the Iron-Prevent Warrior are just like parallel goods!"

"It's okay if the plot is not good, but even the most basic picture is not good. I really admire the director's skills..."

After hearing many movie fans, Howard Rashford roughly understood a little. Sometimes, some movie directors like to self-righteously disrupt certain conventional rules in the movie genre. This stupid choice can simply destroy the film industry.

Not far away on the other side, some journalists from the entertainment media were also interviewing the audience immediately.

A reporter from The Hollywood Reporter interviewed a movie fan wearing glasses and very elegant.

The fan's hair was gray, and the words he said to the camera could not hide his love for the opposite sex. "I just saw the movie "Alien" in 1979 and fell in love with this monster. I watched all four "Alien" and the previous "Alien vs. Predator", and this is undoubtedly the worst of all Alien movies."

"The movie is really bad." He shook his head, "Maybe the first-time director knows that he has insufficient basic skills and hopes to use special effects and numerous but not profound characters to get away with it, which leads to serious problems in the film. Not to mention the messy performance, you can't even understand what the story is about to tell."

Not many meters away, another movie fan was also venting his dissatisfaction in his heart at the reporter's microphone, "It is a very unfortunate thing to destroy a classic with a bad sequel. One thing I regretted in the past few years is that I watched "Terminator 3". I have been trying to erase this horrible movie viewing experience from my memory but failed. It turns out that what is more unfortunate than this is that a bad movie destroys two classics in one breath."

He couldn't help but say, "This garbage director destroyed the two classics of Alien and Predator in an instant! The idea of ​​Alien vs. Predator is already bad enough. I didn't expect that we would be tortured twice by such a bad idea. I hope 20th Century Fox will not think about filming the third episode. If you have to film, please change to a more reliable director?"

The night became darker, and as time passed, the premiere fans gradually dispersed. The reporters and some other personnel gathered in front of the theater also left one after another. Howard Rashford packed up his questionnaire, gathered two other colleagues, a man and a woman, and walked towards the parking lot together.

"How is your rating?" asked Howard Rashford.

"Don't mention it." The female colleague shrugged, "This movie is probably in terrible. Even few fans of the premiere have given the above ratings. How bad is that director? How could he use these two classic movie roles to make such a bad movie?"

The male colleague said at this time, "I just calculated that I asked less than thirty movie fans here, and the average score was given."
