Chapter 277 Protest
At the same time, netizens in the beautiful country were also shocked that "This Man From Earth" did not receive any nominations.
All major forums are full of voices of doubts from Lu Ming fans, expressing dissatisfaction with the Oscar Organizing Committee.
"It's not fair. Lu's movie is the best sci-fi movie I've ever seen. Why didn't he get any nominations?"
"Fake! Even such a good movie is not nominated, the Oscar judges are absolutely in the water!"
"Is the Organizing Committee of the Oscars blind and can't even see such a good movie?"
Immediately after these dissatisfied voices appeared, other people who had not seen "This Man From Earth" became curious, and they searched the Internet for resources of this film.
Even the gun version with some blurry picture quality is enough to make them realize what a classic movie this is.
As a result, more and more people commented on major forums. The live broadcast room of the Oscars was directly swiped by dissatisfied people. Even the appearance of international superstars on the red carpet did not stop them from doing so.
Up to the Grand Theater.
Oscars ceremony venue.
After the host announces the nominations for various awards, go to the backstage to prepare for the official award period.
The light of a mobile phone appeared in the audience, a sight that had not happened since the beginning of the Academy Awards.
To attend the awards ceremony, even though it was just a spectator, everyone was full of awe, and few people would turn on their mobile phones at the venue.
In the auditorium, the guests gathered in twos and threes to discuss something.
Lucas said in a tone of disbelief: "Did the Oscar judges fall asleep while watching the movie this year? Even a movie as good as "The Man From Earth" didn't have any nominations. What did they choose? What's coming out?"
Another director, Verbinski, was also very angry about this matter, and said angrily: "You can't do such a stupid thing when you fall asleep. I think they have a long brain. Look at the one they chose. How vulgar is a few sci-fi films piled up with special effects!"
The two directors were excited to criticize this year's Oscar judges, their voices getting louder and louder, wishing all the guests in the audience could hear their dissatisfaction.
Director Howard in the front row noticed their topic, turned his head instantly, and asked in surprise: "You mean, Daxia's movie "This Man From Earth", which was shot with 100,000 yuan, is participating in the Oscar campaign. ?"
Lucas blew his beard and stared: "Yeah, but the turtle-sun judges didn't even give it a single nomination."
"How is this possible?" Howard's face was full of disbelief: "Have the judges been kicked by donkeys collectively!"
"I don't think I was just kicked by a donkey, but I think I got my head caught with a 1,000-pound Dashimen!"
The three seemed to have found allies and had a heated discussion about why "This Man From Earth" was not nominated.
They were discussing to the peak of their emotions, but there was an out-of-beat snort next to them.
"Hmph." Carlos couldn't listen to them so much for a movie made by an Oriental, and couldn't help but snorted to express disdain.
"You actually admire the sci-fi film made by a Daxia person so much, it's dizzying!" Carlos said with a sneer.
If the director of Daxia Kingdom wants to make a blockbuster, they have to hire their special effects team from Beautiful Country, and they can make any good sci-fi movies. In the past, there was also a sci-fi film in Daxia Kingdom that claimed to be a once-in-a-century sci-fi film that was nominated for the Oscars.
Howard was stunned for a moment, and his expression suddenly became a little dissatisfied: "Carlos, you are just dizzy. You haven't even seen that movie, so you say it can't be done, isn't it too hasty?"
"You can also talk about it, believe it or not, you can't make such a movie at all!" Lucas was very angry in his heart. Hearing Carlos's words, he immediately aimed his gun at Carlos.
"I think you were bought by the Daxia people who made movies." Carlos said with a cold face, ignoring them.
The three of them looked at each other, sighed in unison, sat down in their seats, and ended the discussion.
Where they didn't notice, Carlos quietly took out his mobile phone and searched the web for the movie "This Man From Earth", thinking to himself: "I want to see what movie this is, so that the three A world-renowned director is so outraged."
At this time, the outside world's doubts about the fairness of the Oscar nomination selection also reached the highest level.
A large number of people spontaneously came to the Da Da Theater to hold a demonstration and protest, demanding a retrial of "This Man From Earth".
"The Oscars are unfair, and I strongly demand a retrial of "This Man From Earth"!"
"This Man From Earth is the best sci-fi film of the year and should not be treated unfairly!"
"Strongly demand a retrial of "This Man From Earth"!"
"Strongly demand a retrial of "This Man From Earth"!"
Loud slogans soared into the sky near the Da Da Theater, and even spread into the theater.
The guests in the theater who hadn't seen the movie were confused and didn't know what they were up to.
And the guests who watched "This Man From Earth" were excited after hearing the content of the slogan, and explained the reason for the situation to the bewildered friends next to them.
"What's the situation, what are you shouting outside?"
"Fuck you, you don't even know this. Daxia recently released a terrific sci-fi film for the Oscars, but it wasn't on the list of nominations read by the host just now."
"How... how awesome is this?"
"Let's put it this way, blablabla..."
The slogans outside became louder and louder, and the venue became noisy.
At the same time, the hostess changed into a dress backstage and stepped back to the podium.
The blonde hostess was wearing a champagne-colored sequined dress with a charming smile on her beautiful face. She didn't know what was going on in the outside world, and she dutifully began to announce the winner of the first and first awards.
However, just as she was about to speak, someone in the audience stood up and shouted: "Where is the person in charge of the Oscar Organizing Committee, I want to protest, the results of this year's selection are so unfair!"
The host was stunned for a moment. So far, she has never encountered such a situation where she openly questioned the fairness of an award.
Professionalism made her recover quickly, with an intoxicating smile on her face: "Mr. Howard, everyone in the world knows that the Oscar organizing committee is the most fair in the world, and your doubts are illogical."
She said it righteously, but she was thinking about whether Howard will run for the Oscars this year, but she turned over the Oscar-running movies in her mind, and the hostess didn't think of any Howard movies running for the Oscars.
"If it's the fairest, why didn't 'This Man From Earth' make the cut?"
Verbinski followed, with a questioning expression on his face. He did believe that Oscar was the most fair in the world before, but this time the facts told him that Oscar might not be so fair.
"Yes, why not give "This Man From Earth" a nomination?"
"We need such a good film without any reason to reward!"
The two directors raised their heads, and more guests also stood up, questioning whether Oscar was fair to This Man From Earth.
"That is, why is such an excellent film not nominated?"
In the excitement of the crowd, Carlos roared unknowingly, his face full of indignation.
"Um?"
"Carlos, what are you doing? Didn't you say that the sci-fi movies made by Daxia people are not good?"
Three pairs of eyes stared at Carlos strangely, and he suddenly froze before realizing what he was doing.
"Then what, I was wrong just now, "This Man From Earth" is indeed very good..." Carlos said embarrassingly, the expression on his face was a little uncomfortable.
