Rebirth in America - Chapter 373
c372 The Empire Strikes Back
After “The Return of Dawn” was finished, “The Empire Strikes Back” immediately rushed to take over!
DreamWorks surprised everyone by releasing the second movie in the Star Wars series before anyone knew it. Watermark Advertising Test Watermark Advertising Test
Generally speaking, after the first part becomes a hit, it will take a while before the second part is released. Some experts believe that the market itself needs a recovery period, just like fish in the water, and cannot be overfished. If movies with the same theme are released continuously, it may cause audience fatigue.
But what they met was Alex, who usually did things that people didn’t expect. As early as when he was filming “Star Wars”, Alex already wanted to release the three movies together so that the audience could enjoy them. Later, under the dissuasion of the marketing department, he did not do such an unconventional thing.
Still, he got the second movie released quickly.
Before the craze for the first film had cooled down, and people were still reminiscing about the plot of the film and eager to watch the following content, he threw out “The Empire Strikes Back”. Since Alex had very strict management of the crew, reporters could not pry into the filming situation, which made people think that Alex was only filming the first part.
When news came out that the second film had been filmed and had even been reviewed and approved and was about to be released, everyone thought it was a gossip from a newspaper or a headline made up by a reporter. .
What I didn’t expect was that this turned out to be true!
As soon as DreamWorks announced the news, it immediately attracted all the attention of people. Especially those viewers who have become Star Wars fans, every one of them is as excited as a festival, and they are screaming to rush to the cinema.
Although some people in DreamWorks think that Alex’s approach is inconsistent with market rules. It also did not follow the release rhythm of the movie trilogy and so on. But they had no way to stop Alex anymore. Once he decided on something, there was no way to convince him without a very strong reason.
Alex did this. Just wanted to give it a try.
in the hereafter. Among the novels on the Qidian website, which one is most popular, isn’t it updated very quickly? Update more frequently. The more people watch it, the more popular it becomes. As they are also entertainment products, Alex believes that movies and novels should also follow this rule, that is, once the rhythm of “update” is grasped. That popularity is like a snowball, getting bigger and bigger.
Of course, movies are a little different from online novels. Because movies need to be played in cinemas, while online novels are not restricted by venue. When the marketing department persuaded Alex, it was for this reason that he did not release the three movies together so quickly.
Wait until the potential of the first movie is fully realized. Not long after the film was released, and the popularity is still growing, it would be a good way to accumulate popularity if the second film is released immediately. It doesn’t even need publicity. Just release it directly.
Some people are worried that audiences will be tired of viewing, and believe that too many movies of the same type will be released, which will make everyone feel tired after watching them.
Alex doesn’t think this is a problem.
Just think about it, if the movie itself is good and if you like it, you will definitely watch it when the second part is released. If you don’t like it, you are unlikely to watch it no matter how much it is promoted in the future. Only by releasing the same series of films in one go while everyone is still interested will definitely increase the number of viewers.
The market’s reaction has formalized this view. The box office of “The Empire Strikes Back” has inherited the popularity of the first film. The number of viewers and attendance rate have not decreased, but are actually stronger than the first film.
In the minds of the audience, they have been surrounded by the confusing relationship between Luke, Solo, and Princess Leia, as well as the reaction of the empire after the Death Star was blown up, the anger of Darth Vader, etc.
If you want to find the answer, you have to go to the cinema!
“The Empire Strikes Back” follows the plot of the previous film. Although the Death Star has been destroyed, the power of the empire is still present. In order to search for traces of the rebels, the Empire sent thousands of probes to the galaxy, one of which landed on the secret base of Harf.
On the screen, Luke and others were discovered by the Imperial Army!
The Dark Knight came after him with a lightsaber. Luke and Princess Leia, who were not yet his opponents, were beaten back steadily. Just when they were about to be captured, an accident happened!
“Buzz!”
A new lightsaber appeared across the sky, blocking Darth Vader’s powerful attack! The person who came was a mysterious man wearing a black robe and a hood. He was agile and powerful, and could compete with the Black Warrior.
“Buzz! Buzz! Buzz!”
“Crack! Crack!”
The lightsabers kept waving and colliding, and the confrontation of powerful forces set off a huge storm. Although the Jedi knights were not afraid of unexpected things with the lightsaber, the ordinary people behind them could not withstand the attack of natural disasters. As a last resort, Luke and Princess Leia led the resistance forces to evacuate the planet.
“Let’s go!”
Luke reminded the mysterious man that he was worried that this powerful Jedi Knight was no match for Darth Vader and others. This time, in addition to the Dark Knight himself, there are also several Dark Jedi warriors chasing Luke and others. Although they were asked to devise a plan to separate the Black Warrior and his men from the beginning, the longer the time dragged on, the more unfavorable the situation became for them.
It is precisely because of this that they want to leave this planet as soon as possible.
“You go first!” the mysterious man said.
Soon, the Black Warrior’s men arrived, and it turned into a car battle. I don’t know if it was because the Black Warrior maintained his identity or for some other reason, but he didn’t join the siege. Instead, he put away his lightsaber and stood aside.
Because there were too many opponents, the hood of the mysterious man was cut off, revealing his true face! When seeing this scene, many viewers were secretly surprised: “It’s actually him!”
It turns out that the mysterious man is played by the familiar Chinese actor Bruce Lee!
His appearance made those viewers who like kung fu feel extremely excited and expected to see more kung fu fighting scenes. Bruce Lee did not disappoint them, even abandoning the lightsaber and using fists to attack.
“Force Photon Fist!”
I saw that after Bruce Lee threw away the lightsaber, his fists emitted light like a lightsaber. He was not afraid of the lightsaber and dared to fight head-on with it. Every blow could knock the opponent’s lightsaber away, even if he was struck by it. Even if the lightsaber cuts on the body, it can be quickly blocked with the photon fist.
“Wow! This is so strong!”
The audience watched with excitement, and were immediately attracted by this kind of kung fu that dared to use the gun to resist the lightsaber. After Alex’s modification, only Jedi can kill Jedi, and there is no other way. The most common means of attack among Jedi Knights is the lightsaber.
In the first part, people saw the indestructible power of the lightsaber. Nothing can stop the lightsaber! But in the second part, a different Jedi suddenly appeared. He could also use a lightsaber, but after throwing away the lightsaber, he looked even more powerful when he used two fists!
During this fight sequence, people learned from Darth Vader that Bruce Lee was a Jedi from a remote galaxy in the Eastern Galaxy, a Jedi from another school. The most powerful thing about this group of Jedi Knights is that they can integrate the Force into their bodies and form lightsaber-like shapes on various parts of their bodies.
This ability is so powerful that it can resist a lightsaber with the body without being harmed. Faced with this ability, the Dark Jedi began to panic, because the enemy was not afraid of their own weapon-the lightsaber!
However, this faction of Jedi Knights still has weaknesses and is not invincible.
The audience soon heard the Darth Vader on the screen shouting: “Don’t panic! His fist is shorter than the length of the lightsaber. Just attack the part that he can’t defend and you can kill him!”
“Quickly! It’s too late to go any further!” Luke yelled and started to retreat after knocking over a dark Jedi.
In the end, what they saw was that, under siege by multiple Jedi Knights, Bruce Lee used his ultimate move to shake away the Dark Jedi Knights around him, and then left the planet with them in an aircraft.
Originally, Darth Vader planned to use the Force to pull the aircraft to the ground, but when he just used his power to have some effect, Bruce Lee also used his power to stop Darth Vader’s movements, and used the Force to wrap the aircraft, protecting it tightly. Strictly.
“This, this is really amazing!”
Both Luke and Princess Leia were shocked by Bruce Lee’s tricks, and the audience of the movie were also shocked. UU Reading www.uukanshu.net They began to guess in their hearts: “Are the last two following this man?” What about the Jedi skills from the East? Such a powerful master will definitely be able to learn many powerful moves!”
They only guessed half of it right. Bruce Lee claimed that his group would only accept one successor. After testing, he chose Princess Leia as his successor. To Luke, who was slightly disappointed, he said: “You are not suitable for practicing my Force skills! However, someone can teach you more advanced moves!”
The Jedi Knight, who called himself the Master of the East, directed Luke to find Master Yoda, and then left with Princess Leia. Luke was left alone to embark on the path of finding a teacher and learning skills. However, Luke lost his way along the way. It was only after being prompted by Kenobi’s soul that he found the planet where Yoda lived in seclusion.
Senior movie fans have long recognized that the person who plays Kenobi is Morris, the president of DreamWorks. When they saw this scene, they couldn’t help but laugh inwardly: “Not to mention that this guy was a walk-on in the first film, and he came to In the second part, people still show up to scare people from time to time! This is really interesting!”
Of course, the first three Star Wars movies were generally humorous and interesting, and nothing very tragic happened. Even the abusive master quickly made the protagonist rise to prominence without any feeling of depression. It is precisely because of this that people like these movies more and more the more they watch them.
