Being able to enter the premiere, Brad Miller had a lot of hands and feet. He called the leader to protest the adaptation of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy into a movie, and naturally he could no longer appear in the protest crowd outside the theater. .
Hearing what his companion said, he thought for a while and said, "Pete, have you seen the trailer?"
"I have seen it." The man named Pete nodded.
Brad Miller asked, "What do you think of the trailer?"
"Uh..." Pete opened his mouth, only to realize that he didn't know what to say, and he hesitated for a while before he said, "Bly, do you want to change your position?"
Shaking his head slightly, Brad Miller said slowly, "These days, I have been thinking about our protest actions. If it is just a simple protest, I will carry it through to the end, but the nature of the protest outside has changed. "
People like him who protest only because of obsession can't move a little bit of petty profit.
"I still think that adapting the original work into a movie is not the right choice, but we have to watch the movie with our own eyes so that our protests can be more justified..."
"It's justified?" Shearer couldn't help but asked back, "You are protesting against the best director in Hollywood. Are you still talking about it?"
∽, "Hey, what are you talking about?" Pete raised his voice slightly.
Brad Miller quickly stopped him and said, "The Lord of the Rings is recognized as the hardest literary work to be adapted into a movie..."
"Duke is the most suitable director for adaptation!" Miller interrupted him. "If anyone in this world can successfully adapt the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, it would be Duke Rosenberg!"
Without waiting for the other party to say anything, the overhead lights began to go out. Shearer pointed to the big screen, "No matter how much I say. No film is convincing. Let's watch the movie. After watching the movie, maybe your point of view Will change."
"I also hope that the film will be good enough to make me change my position!"
With a low whisper, Brad Miller turned his gaze to the big screen.
The titles of Warner Bros. and Duke's Studio flashed past one after another, and the screen went black. A low chant sounded, and another female voice speaking a strange language read a monologue in an accented tone.
"This is..." Brad Miller raised his brow immediately, "This is Quenya!"
In Tolkien's masterpiece, not only the Quenya he created, but also the tone and English contrast, the film has not appeared yet, which gave Brad Miller a very big surprise.
Someone actually chanted Quenya on the big screen!
Pete beside him was also very excited. He is also a loyal Lord of the Rings fan.
Shearer turned to look at the two people next to him, and snorted softly. What kind of Quenya is this? With Duke's production style, there are bound to be countless surprises in the back. This is obviously because of opposition to the book fans. Will they cry with excitement when they see their dreams true to their eyes?
He is waiting to see this scene!
"The world has changed, I perceive it from the flowing water. I perceive it from the soil, I smell it from the air... The story begins with the casting of the Lord of the Rings..."
In the monologue of Queen Galadriel. The opening picture advances unhurriedly. Before the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, there are two shorter chapters of the Silmarillion and The Hobbit, but the film cannot be shown one by one, so it can only be used in the simplest way. The way, through the mouth of Queen Galadriel. Give a brief description of the background of the story.
And this is not a mere description. After introducing the origin of the Lord of the Rings, the opening battle kicked off. This is the scene highlighted in the trailer, which appears on the big screen at this moment. The momentum is even more shocking. The allied forces of elves and humans fought against the monsters of Mordor, Islamdir was killed, and Esidor cut off Sauron's fingers, but under the temptation of the Supreme Lord of the Rings, his mind was shaken and he missed the best of destroying evil. opportunity.
The human mind will eventually be deceived. The Lord of the Rings seems to be alive. When Esiduo was attacked, it was sent to Huangquan Road.
Duke used the simplest and clearest way to take Bilbo's experience of getting the ring in one stroke, in which the shots of Guru flashed away, but this monster whose mind and body were poisoned by the Lord of the Rings still caused many people to marvel.
The camera is switched, the person who narrates, from Queen Galadriel to Bilbo Baggins, the picturesque Charles, in the soundtrack of old.friends composed by Howard Shaw and performed by the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra, With the clearest panoramic picture, it is placed in front of all viewers.
The green vegetation, dense bushes, neat crops, clear rivers, quaint bridges, and the leisurely life of the Hobbit...
"It's like heaven!" Shearer exclaimed.
Brad Miller closed his mouth tightly. He didn't know what to say. As you can see from the beginning, the unanticipated adaptation of the film was somewhat large, and even the process of Bilbo getting the ring was simply omitted. It has passed, but the opening battle that can shock people's souls has surpassed the final alliance battle between humans and elves in his imagination countless times.
When Charles and Hobbiton appeared, Brad Miller had to press his lips to stop his excitement.
This is the Shire in the book! This is the Charles in his dream! This is the Charles he has imagined countless times! This is his best and most beautiful Shire!
He couldn't imagine that there are still more beautiful pastoral scenery in this world than the Shire!
"God, it's so beautiful!"
As an actual participant in the film, Ivanka did not expect that the inconspicuous scenery she saw would be so beautiful when it turned into a movie!
This is not exquisite beauty, but leisurely beauty!
She turned her head and asked Duke, "How did you do it?"
Duke responded with a smile, but didn't say much, and he couldn't explain it clearly to a film layman.
In the beginning, the rhythm of the movie is inevitably a little slow, but because the opening game suffocates the appetite of the fans, and the beautiful scenery of the Shire, it will not make people feel bored at all. Looking at the entire screening hall, whether it is guests or ordinary people. The audience, whether they are book fans or non-book fans, watched it with gusto.
Especially for book fans. The main characters of Gandalf, Frodo, Bilbo, Melly, Pipin, and Sam have all appeared on the stage, all of which have been recognized by them. It seems that the description in Tolkien's original works should be the appearance on the big screen.
From clothing to language, from scenery to living habits, all of these are simply not available in reality. A corner of the Middle-earth Continent is enough to attract people's eyes.
The leisurely pastoral life ended with the appearance of the Lord of the Rings. Bilbo left Hobbiton and decided to travel and live with the elves. Frodo, who inherited all his property, became the new owner of the Lord of the Rings. Gandalf discovered the magic After giving up, he instructed Frodo to hide, and he went to Gondor to verify.
When Gandalf galloped to Gondor. Minastiris appeared for the first time!
Although the panoramic lens flashed past, the majestic and majestic Baicheng still attracted a lot of admiration from the audience.
"The most beautiful imagination can't equal the real picture!"
Brad Miller saw the white city he was thinking about. He wanted to hear the silver horn sound, and the flag of the holy white tree was flying above the white city. He wanted to see more...
He gradually realized that perhaps the film would not be as bad as he thought.
The narrative rhythm of the story suddenly accelerated, after Gandalf found a description of the Lord of the Rings in Baicheng. Back to Hobbiton non-stop, burning with flames. It is confirmed that this is the Supreme Lord of the Rings!
Frodo inevitably embarked on the path of his destiny, but fortunately he also had a servant named Sam to travel with.
Gandalf and Frodo agreed to meet at the Prancing Horse Hotel in Burri Village, and then went to Isengard to ask for help from the Speaker of the White Council Saruman.
However, he got bad news.
"The nine ring spirits disguised as black knights and have passed through the Luohan Pass!"
The door to the Minas Cavern opened. In the black sky and the gloomy green light, nine faceless black knights leaped forward and rushed to the Shire.
"Oh, God."
The black knight rushed towards the Shire and chopped off a man's head. Ivanka couldn't help but grabbed Duke's arm, "Daddy's role is so terrible..."
The nine ring spirits are looking for Frodo, but Gandalf is facing a huge challenge!
As an important figure on the justice side, Saruman, the speaker of the Holy White Council, is one of the main forces against Sauron, but he is determined to take refuge in Sauron, and a war between wizards broke out with Gandalf.
Brad Miller couldn't help but his eyes widened. He received a gossip, claiming that the movie would be changed to a magical firework show similar to a game...
However, the scene that appeared here made him breathe a sigh of relief, and unknowingly he became more recognized for the movie.
In the Lord of the Rings, the wizard has a strong melee ability. Although it is not described in detail in the book, Brad Miller, based on the settings of these two Maiyas, is not difficult to draw-two people with strong melee ability, In such a small space, would you give up close combat and use cumbersome spells?
If the film does this, then Gandalf and Saruman are both idiots.
Fortunately, the film did not disappoint. The close combat style of Gandalf and Saruman is also very consistent with the wizard's approval.
In the Prancing Horse Hotel, Frodo did not wait for Gandalf, who was imprisoned by Saruman, but met Aragorn who was asked by Gandalf, and the King appeared!
Then, the night attack of the ring spirit, Aragorn led the hobbit to Rivendell. On the top of the wind and cloud, Frodo was stabbed by the Angmar Witch King and began to move towards the junction of life and death-the ring The space where the spirit is—Walking away, Aragorn dispelled the ring spirit with fire, carrying the Hobbit hurriedly to Rivendell, where only King Elrond could heal him.
"Wow, what a beautiful fairy."
Amidst the twinkling of white light, Arwen officially appeared on the stage. There were many close-up shots of her. Her slender and tall figure and carefully modified face attracted the attention of all men almost instantly.
She is so beautiful, so dreamy, so elegant and agile...
There should not be such a beautiful woman in the world, she should only belong to the elves of Middle-earth!
Seeing Evening Star, at Brad Miller's age, he felt a string in his head suddenly tightened, even though it was not Arwen in the original work, he did not rise in front of such a beautiful elf. Any dissatisfaction! (To be continued...)
