Chapter 91 Surprise?!!!

9days ago Urban Novels 8
Game-adapted movies have always been a difficult problem. It is almost impossible to satisfy both game fans and movie fans at the same time. No matter which side of the skew, it will attract dissatisfaction from the other party.

However, overall, game fans are more difficult to serve, especially those fundamentalists. Everything is based on the game settings, and it is unacceptable to slight differences. The number of fans is much more than game fans. Therefore, even though the process of the movie version of "Resident Evil" is basically based on the game and overall tends to be game fans, the plot settings are still biased towards movie fans.

Even so, although the box office of the film "Resident Evil" which the producers have worked hard to balance, it has still been criticized by many people.

Fortunately, Tomb Raider has relatively greater freedom. Although the decrypted games are sophisticated, Laura's image is the most eye-catching, so as long as you stick to it, the plot and the game are not connected much.

The female version of Indiana Jones, which was one of the slogans when the game was first launched and one of the keys to Laura's popularity. So what are the characteristics of Dr. Jones' adventures?

It's very simple. Although there are some surreal things at the end of the "Raiders of the Lost Ark" trilogy, such as the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy Grail, Dr. Jones's entire adventure, the people and things encountered, the dangers and mechanisms encountered are closely related to reality.

There is no need for so much magic content. The treasure is just an embellishment and can show its power in the end, but the focus is not on it. Laura's skills, Laura's equipment, Laura's wisdom, these are the focus of the movie!

This was what Adrian once repeatedly advised the crew.

In his opinion, the so-called mysterious golden triangle in the original version is simply ignorant. The game is indeed the female version of Indiana Jones, but the movie is completely different. In a movie with action and characters as its selling points, if mysticism accounts for too much, it will easily affect people's viewing experience.

So, the movie started with Laura’s treasure hunt in the mountainous areas of Peru. Since it is a female version of Indiana Jones, I’d better pay tribute by the way.

Not only that, Adrian also invited Sean Connery to play Laura's father. Although only a few shots appeared in the memories, the gimmick was enough to attract a large number of people to watch.

Then, after fully demonstrating his skills with equipment in the mountains and forests and using a few words to prove his knowledge of archaeology, Laura finally found the treasure, but was accidentally snatched away by a bad guy who was half a step behind.

Of course, fighting is inevitable. Laura's iconic double guns in the game are also displayed for the first time. The cameras are quickly switched, and Kate's flexible figure is amazing.

However, the thing was still snatched away by the other party, using very despicable methods, and laughed at her loudly when she left.

Failed, it was that annoying guy again, and one day I will catch him.Laura complained to her housekeeper so much, and her words showed the character from another perspective.

Occasionally failing is also a good thing.The housekeeper was so comforting.

Next is to show Laura's life in all aspects, including manor, archaeology, auctions, showing her knowledge, etc. During this period, memories of her father were interspersed. After Connery's face appeared, it caused a few low amazes in the screening room.

Here, the movie specifically compares Laura's performance by adjusting the angle of the camera and the light on the scene. She has a very scholarly temperament when she put on glasses and loosens her hair, but after taking off her glasses and tied them into a ponytail, she immediately becomes capable again.

Oh, the eye-catching elastic rope bounces in this section.

Then he was commissioned by the Royal Library to go to Angkor Wat, Cambodia to investigate a certain ruin. He met the opponent again on the way, and the other party was hired by an organization to come here to investigate.

It is inevitable that there will be another action scene, not only to confront each other, but also to prevent sneak attacks from local people. Some of the more classic mechanisms in the game have also appeared one after another.

The director's rhythm was pretty good, and Adrian personally supervised the cut, which was very exciting in terms of the action scenes.

In the end, Laura won the game and brought a thing that looked like half a Buddha's head made of gold to the UK. The reason why it looked like it was because Adrian didn't know what it was. These were mainly props to promote the development of the plot, because the screenwriters needed to connect the treasures of Peru to the things in the hidden ruins of Cambodia and then to go to Tunisia to find a precious cultural relic thousands of years ago.

It is not difficult to have so many screenwriters working hard, but if you want to study it carefully... forget it.

In the end, it was naturally another battle. Three close fights in an action movie were enough, and the three fights also had their own characteristics. The first one mainly relied on Laura's various equipment, and the double guns were particularly outstanding.

The second game mainly shows Laura's close-up fight, and for this reason Adrian specially asked Yuan Heping to serve as action guide.

I have to admit that Yuan Baye is very good at this. Under his guidance, Laura and his opponents fought each other with skills and strength very well.

But on the other hand, he was still a little stingy. Although he had good instructions on the movement, he still kept his hands hidden. Sometimes he would rather let his apprentice repeatedly than make clear explanations, for fear that these skills would be learned to lose his job.

Unfortunately, what he didn't understand was that someone had already analyzed the actions he guided frame by frame and summarized a lot of things from them. Hollywood is always very efficient in things that can bring benefits.

So no matter how much he hides it, it is useless. Perhaps this kind of thing he summarizes is not as good as his personal guidance, but it is definitely more suitable for Hollywood action movies.

It’s a pity that the decline of Hong Kong movies is probably related to this bad habit.

Okay, let’s not talk about this, in the last fight, each of them made a surprise plan, and the organization that hired Laura’s opponents also found clues to come to Tunisia to find the priceless treasure that was said to have been passed down from ancient times.

They have much more resources than Laura, not only are they snatching ahead at every step, but design captures Laura.

It’s so inappropriate, why didn’t you kill her? I heard that you suffered a lot of losses from her, or are you soft-hearted?The employer was very dissatisfied with Laura's opponent's approach to locking Laura up.

We often fight, and I know very well what kind of woman she is, and she will definitely have a backhand.

The opponent said calmly, and she has an extraordinary intuition in treasure hunting. We need to use her to find the target. I will let someone watch her and kill her as soon as possible if there is any inappropriateness.

Almost all action movies have such plots, why is the exception of Tomb Raider?

The opponent's judgment seemed to be correct. Laura did take them to find the treasure. Then, suddenly attacked and used some small means to paralyze the contact between the people entering the ruins and the large army, and then defeated the remaining people one by one.

Just like you know me, Parisi, I know you too, so I took advantage of it.

When the gun was fired, Laura said in a teasing tone that she had done the unfavorable situations such as being arrested and asking them to take the lead everywhere, which were part of her plan.

The feeling of a big turnaround that can definitely make the audience happy. With the excellent handling of various hot special effects scenes, gravel splashing, close-up fighting and the final touching mechanism. Except Laura and her rival Parisi, everyone else sank into the ground with the treasure, which is very outstanding.

You should know that if the director doesn't grasp the scenes of wisdom, action, and gunfighting, it will appear scattered and lack tension, but the movie does not give people this feeling. It can be said that the movie should be successful as a whole, and it can be heard from the applause after the end.

They like the Laura you play, dear.In the RV back to the hotel, Adrian said affectionately, holding Kate, the little guy in the way was driven into another car by him.

So should I say thank you?

Kate raised her chin slightly, and she was still very happy, especially after the end, many people congratulated her on saying that it was a good movie, but she was used to facing Adrian with this attitude when she was in London.

Of course not, I have been waiting for this day for almost ten years.Adrian smiled.

Kate was stunned for a moment and involuntarily twisted his head out the car window. Although London has not changed much in the past decade, there is still Millennium Bridge and London Eye.

But she still remembers that in a small hotel in the suburbs, Adrian Cute published the concept of "Tomb Raider" because of himself, and his excited appearance was always portrayed in her mind.

Then, ten years passed, and the conception successfully turned into a novel, a game, and then a movie, and it was a movie starring himself. The man who Cute originally created the conception also became a famous media tycoon, and he became one of his many women, and a child...

What's wrong?Adrian, who noticed her mood change, asked softly.

It's nothing, it's just... I remembered some past events.Kate sighed.

Adrian chuckled, hugging her tighter, and looked at her very seriously and focusedly: Do you know what the luckiest thing I have encountered so far?I met you when I was directing a movie for the first time!

Although there is only one sentence, it contains a lot of meanings. Kate naturally heard it. She didn't say anything for a long time, and finally just sighed: You bastard...

As she closed her eyes and snuggled her body completely in his arms and said nothing. Adrian also breathed a long sigh, and closed her eyes to enjoy the rare indescribable attachment and warmth for this moment.

After the release of "Tomb Raider", many British media gave high scores, from games to game characters to actors, they are all from Britain. In addition, Laura may not be the first virtual character to be on the cover of a magazine, but she is definitely the most popular virtual character at present, so she is naturally very popular among the British.

This is an excellent action movie, perfectly recreating some of the settings in the game but not out of the ordinary. Kate Beckinsale may not be the closest Laura in appearance, but in terms of overall image, it is almost the same as Laura Crawford. Watching her fight in the movie is a pleasure.

This is what an article in the entertainment section of the Guardian said.

Several other large newspapers and magazines are similar. Although The Times has picked a few stings, it still admits that Kate's image is very close to Laura, and praises her for being nominated for both the Oscar and starring in action movies, saying that she is one of the best British actors, and the British do have an advantage in the British territory.

But what they said is true. This was originally a plan tailored by Adrian for Kate. Although he took the action route in business, he could still take into account art. It was not that there was no actress who successfully lived like this. At most, the time to win honors might be a little longer.

It doesn't matter. She is a British and a woman. It's not easy to win an Oscar. Although Adrian can achieve Kate through public relations, that would be a bit unworthy of her name. She can't be the worst Oscar-best actress in this life, right?

Anyway, there are some things in time, and there are also suitable movies. Adrian can give her an unquestionable actress queen, so why bother to care?

As for the Sun, they still went to gossip and scandals, and they really found a breakthrough point.

The real first miracle girl?

This is the title of The Sun on the third day after the film's premiere, and they describe Kate's role in "Two Big Blows" and "Memory Smash" in very detailed reports.

Everyone knows that "Two Big Bowls" is the debut of miracle director Adrian Cowell, a cult-type movie with rich British black humor. This movie not only made Adrian make a splash, but also made Dennis Knight famous with outstanding performances in it.I believe that when watching this movie, most people will laugh out loud by the black humor, and ignore the only female character in the whole movie. Yes, the girl who sucks marijuana so hard that she is unconscious and holds up a machine gun and shoots her. She is Miss Kate Beckinsale who plays Laura Crawford in the recently released "Tomb Raider"!

Next, Adrian produced his second film, Memory Fragments, which was equally brilliant at the Berlin Film Festival, further establishing the position of miracle director. Dennis also played the leading role in the film and gave a more exciting performance, while the equally important supporting actress is still played by Miss Beckinsale.

Next, Miss Beckinsale played her sister Helen in "Howard Manor", but she was completely blocked by Emma Thompson. After that, although she never played roles in movies directed by Director Miracle, she also played the leading role in movies such as "Tornado" and "Destiny Day". The script concepts of these movies are all from Director Miracle, and Bosworth Films also has investments, and the same is true for the current Tomb Raider.

More importantly, Adrian recently attended the London premiere of Tomb Raider. Although he did not enter with Miss Beckinsale, according to people familiar with the matter, the two had a very intimate conversation in the screening room. It was obvious that the first Miracle Girl was neither Julia Roberts nor Monica Bellucci, but Kate Beckinsale.

There is only one report in the whole report, according to people familiar with the matter, the others are all facts, so they are presented directly. With the word Miracle Girl, it goes without saying that it is an allusion to it. It is worthy of being a famous tabloid.

Adrian was not mentally prepared. As Kate became more and more famous, this kind of thing would be revealed sooner or later. But what made him unsatisfied was that he was actually exposed by the Sun.

Fortunately, Kate is not in London now. She is busy promoting "Tomb Raider". There is still an American one after the British premiere, and the manor that Adrian bought is in Hampshire. There is no need to worry about being found by paparazzi for a while.

As for the United States, it is not a few years later. It will take some time for the news to pass, and Kate should be ready by then.

So Adrian was not worried, and he still had time to consider how to produce the AV version of "Tomb Raider". He decided to invest 5 to 10 million anonymously to find the porn queen of DP to star in the role, so that she could perform various tricks according to her wishes. What's wrong with using a little money to make herself happy?

DP will not refuse, they are a very motivated adult tape company.

Unfortunately, another man played with the old man Hefner and also appeared on the cover of "Playboy". He originally hoped that she could star in an AV version of "The Pretty of Law".

Well, this is just a small matter. Adrian only thinks about it when he has time. There are other things to do at other times.

Well, if they are sincere, you can have someone go and inspect it first. After my vacation in London is over, if the results are good, you can consider going there and taking a look.

Adrian said as he called in after the knock on the door.

Ed, why are you hiding here? Everyone is outside.Little Emma, ​​who opened the door and came in, said dissatisfiedly with her hands on her hips.

Sorry, my dear, there are some small things to deal with, and it will be fine soon.Adrian put down his cell phone and smiled, then knocked on the computer a few times.

You all say it's a vacation.Little Emma walked past the edge of the desk and looked at the monitor a few times.

There is no way, you can't ignore it when things come, Adrian shrugged and gave me five minutes, okay, I promise to come out.

OK OK OK, I'm so busy that I don't even have time to coax me to bed.Little Emma hummed intentionally.

Hey Emma, ​​we said OK.Adrian picked up the coffee and sipped.

Yes I know.Little Emma walked out with a long voice. The moment she turned around, her expression that she had disapproved immediately fell, and her teeth bit her lips, as if she was very unwilling to accept it.

She walked to the door with a little dazed a moment, twisted and looked at Adrian again, and suddenly her eyes lit up.

By the way, Ed, I have a surprise for you.She put her hands behind her back, and looked at him with a smirk with her chest, wondering if you dare to accept it.

surprise?Adrian raised his eyebrows, moved his eyes to her and picked up the coffee. Don't use provocation, dear Emma, ​​I won't be fooled.

As soon as he finished speaking, with a swish, Little Emma lifted up her skirt in front of him, and the underwear printed with the coffee cat was exposed to Adrian's eyes. Not only that, Little Emma also deliberately twisted her butt twice, and the coffee cat on her underwear also moved twice, as if she had come back to life.

With a puff, the coffee in Adrian's mouth squirted out, spraying far away, with the desk, the floor, the clothes, and the face everywhere. Then, little Emma slipped out with a proud and proud smile.
