Hollywood Road - Chapter 701

As in the past few years, the 86th Oscar Awards Ceremony is still held in the Hollywood and Highland Center, which is the Dolby Theater, which was renamed the year before. However, the difference is that after the announcement of the Oscar nominations for this year’s The crew of the Oscars is much quieter than in previous years, even Harvey Weinstein and Murphy, who are very thick-skinned and very versatile.

The reason is simple. The Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences seems to want to rectify the Oscar’s public relations order. After the nomination list was announced, the director made a beating.

Bruce Broughton, the producer of the song “Alone.Yet.Not.Alone”, was found by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences to violate the Oscar public relations rules and is strictly forbidden to participate in the Oscar!

According to the news released by the academy, Bruce Broughton canvassed votes to the Oscar judges via email, urging them to “pay attention to this piece.” The academy ruled that Bruce Broughton violated the voting rules and cancelled its Oscar best original song. Eligibility for the award.

Bruce Broughton is not an important person, but the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences has undoubtedly demonstrated its own attitude. The contestants including the “Dark City” were also much quieter afterwards. No one wants to be at this time. Go to touch the mold of the college.

This is one of the most eye-catching things before the awards ceremony, and the other is whether the rain in Los Angeles will stop.

Unpredictable weather, and when the 86th Oscars ceremony was about to officially begin in more than ten hours, Los Angeles began to rain heavily and the temperature dropped sharply.

Spring is the rainy season in the Los Angeles area each year, and the Oscars awards ceremony in the past is not without rain, but this year’s rain is particularly heavy, and even the red carpet has been affected.

Although the staff promptly implemented waterproofing measures and erected a rain canopy, the red carpets laid out in advance at the entrance of the Dolby Theater were all soaked in rain.

Of course, the red carpet show will not be cancelled due to rain, but it is likely to be dragged down by the weather and affect the effect of the photo and interview.

According to the forecast of the Meteorological Department, this severe weather will continue until the night of the Oscars ceremony, and the temperature will also become very low.

The college started remedial work as quickly as possible. As long as there is money, it is not difficult to solve the trouble caused by rain.

In just one night and one morning, all the red carpets that were soaked were replaced with new ones, and the inside and outside were covered with plastic sheets, drainage channels were added, and the staff constantly monitored the rain and the on-site drainage. Use tools to remove water in time.

In addition, the college has expanded the area of ​​the rain shelter, even covering the driveway.

It’s not uncommon for the Oscar red carpet show to encounter bad weather. The stars and the organizers are very experienced. The heavy rain is indeed a test. The amount of rain is too much. There is no perfect solution to deal with such emergencies, but this will not delay Hollywood. The stars walked onto the red carpet in splendor.

The red carpet show of the 86th Academy Awards kicked off in heavy rain and low temperature.

But most celebrities have chosen their styles and clothing long ago, and this will not change them.

For example, Emma Watson, who walked in front of Murphy, wore a Vivi-Wang high-definition sheer tight-fitting evening dress. The skirt was thin and transparent, and it looked really beautiful and cold.

“Presumably…” Gal Gadot held Murphy’s hand and slightly controlled the speed of his advancement. “Emma wanted to counter the attacks of those people and the media.”

Murphy nodded, “It’s possible.”

In his contact, Emma Watson is a very individual girl. Some people and the media criticized her for being a false feminism. She simply chose one on this very important occasion. A see-through outfit, as a response to those attacks.

Compared with the red carpet in the past, Murphy did not walk fast. He could feel the meaning of Gal Gadot. After all, the people who walked in front can be regarded as friends. If they walk too fast and catch up, Ai Mar Watson would be a little embarrassed.

Murphy and Gal Gadot walked slowly over the carpet, gently waving at the fans on both sides, the rainstorm above their heads, crackling on top of the rain canopy, the sound made him could not hear the fans shouting. what.

But many people held up his posters, and Murphy smiled back at those people.

“traitor!”

Daisy stood among the fans on the left of the red carpet, looking at Murphy’s familiar face, a cold light flashed in her eyes, “Damn traitor!”

Although she was thinking so in her heart, she did nothing but watched the two men walk into the media interview area in front of the Dolby Theater.

The Dolby Theater and the entire Avenue of Stars are full of police officers. If something happens, she can’t get away at all. Even if she doesn’t care about it, she can’t do anything she wants to do. She can enter here and go through three security procedures. Guns Weapons like this cannot be brought in.

“Director Stanton, the academy once again refused to set up the best stunt award for the Oscars. What do you think?”

In the interview area, Murphy was being interviewed by reporters. Hearing this question, he thought a little and replied, “We can’t ignore the contribution of stunt performers to this industry. They deserve to be rewarded.”

The establishment of special effects awards has been mentioned for many years, but it is not easy for the conservative academy to recognize stunt performers. Although the academy has made many reforms to the Oscars this year, it has once again rejected the establishment of special effects-related Oscar awards.

The reform of the college is mainly aimed at the existing awards.

As early as last year, the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences made several changes to the judging criteria, the most important of which is the restriction on the number of declared actors for each film and the relaxation of the best film candidate producer. standard constrain.

In terms of the best actor declaration, the new rules of the academy’s changes limit that each film can only declare 20 actors and 20 actresses to participate in the best actor category.

In the past, the producer or distributor could declare all actors who appeared in the film into the list.

The purpose of this change is to streamline the list of candidates provided to the judges before the annual selection, and to further avoid the trouble caused by the excessive complexity of the list, and whether the actors declared for the list will participate in the best protagonist award or supporting role award is still left to the applicant. Decided.

In addition, the 40 candidates under the new rules can be any actors participating in the film, and the producer or distributor does not need to decide on the ranking of the cast.

Regarding the best picture awards, the main selection criteria have not changed much. The college will select the three main producers or less of each best picture producer as nominees, and according to the circumstances, The right to add a fourth nominee to the film is reserved, and the change occurs when this possible fourth person is selected.

If a producer appears as a team, the academy has only admitted that members of the production team who have worked together for more than 5 years and produced at least 5 feature films have become candidates for the best film award.

Today, this standard has been relaxed to the point that as long as two feature films have been produced, they can be selected.

The selection rules for other awards are also slightly adjusted based on language semantics. Another noteworthy change occurred in the best original song award. In the future, the college will allow candidates for the best original song to appear as a group, and the winners will also Only one small gold figure awarded in the name of the team was awarded.

After simply answering the reporter’s question, Murphy declined the following interview, holding Gal Gadot, preparing to enter the Dolby Theater.

At this moment, an exclamation sound suddenly came from behind, the sound was very loud, and even the sound of heavy rain falling on the rain shelter was suppressed.

Murphy looked back. Near the media coverage area, Jennifer Lawrence fell sturdily on the red carpet. Not only did the fans scream in exclamation, even the media reporter’s camera lens was turned over.

“It’s going to grab the headlines again.” Gal Gadot shook his head. “If I remember correctly, this is the fourth time I fell on the awards ceremony or on the red carpet.”

Murphy smiled, turned around, and pulled Gal Gadot into the Dolby Theater.

This is also a good way to win entertainment headlines when it is impossible to win important awards.

In the Santa Monica beach area, Archbishop Marquez Costello finished his day’s work and looked up at the wall clock on the wall. It seemed that it was about to begin.

He ordered the assistant standing by, “Go and turn on the TV.”

The assistant is very strange. It’s not time for the evening news. Why does the Archbishop suddenly want to watch TV?

He turned on the TV, and Archbishop Marquez Costello in the back commanded again, “Change to ABC TV!”

After taking the remote control, the assistant switched to the ABC TV station, and then watched the Oscar live broadcast.

“It turned out to be like this.” He turned his head and peeked at Archbishop Marquez Costello, and muttered, “Is this to see Murphy Stanton?”

Now who doesn’t know, Murphy Stanton embarrassed His Excellency the Archbishop very much. His Excellency the Pope called him a few days ago and severely reprimanded His Excellency the Archbishop. He was in this office at the time, and he could faintly hear the incompetence, Words like failure…

This is definitely not a good sign for an archbishop.

The assistant felt that His Excellency Archbishop Marquez Costello might not stay long in the Diocese of South Central California…

In Dolby Theater, Murphy and Gal Gadot, under the guidance of the staff, walked into the VIP lounge in the theater and added their friends in the lounge.

When the Stanton members gathered together, Margot Robbie asked, “How many figurines can we get tonight?”

Murphy shrugged, “Of course the more the better.”

“Not as many as possible!” Robert Downey Jr. said seriously, “We want to take away all the 13 nominees!”

Everyone laughed softly.

Just after talking and laughing, Gal Gadot suddenly pulled Murphy’s arm and reminded, “Leonardo DiCaprio is here.”
