The 79th Oscars generated a lot of controversy, because of the many big upsets, and because of the award for the Best Picture The global media reported immediately, but Ye Wei could not be separated no matter what. The film genius returned empty-handed!
The Associated Press focused on the great harvest of African-American actors, Martin Scorsese's dream come true, and Ye Wei's failure: "The biggest surprise of the night's ceremony was that Ye Wei and his films failed to win any awards." AFP The focus of the press is Scorsese's victory for "The Departed", the first-time winners, and Ye Wei's failure: "Ye Wei, the biggest favorite for Best Adapted Screenplay, finally lost, which triggered the biggest scream of the night." Reuters The news agency focused on this year¡¯s Oscars¡¯ focus on climate and AIDS issues, the gains of various countries, and Ye Wei¡¯s failure: ¡°Although Ye Wei personally had 4 nominations, he was defeated by his opponents in all of them.¡±
The New York Times criticized the Oscars for being saturated with advertisements, making the ceremony complicated and lengthy. Allen¡¯s host had no surprises, while Scorsese and the four winning actors were as expected. ¡°Jennifer Hudson pretended to be surprised,¡± she said. There were tears streaming down her face, but except for her, I¡¯m afraid no one could hide the boredom of ¡®I knew it a long time ago¡¯.¡±
However, there were some upsets. Terrill Kofer, who won the Best Animated Short Film for "The Danish Poet", sat at the far end and took three times as long as the speech to get to the stage. It was like the academy was sitting in the rows. of Waterloo. In addition, "the unexpected failures related to Ye Wei have supported the suspense on Oscar night."
The Los Angeles Times published an article: "'The Departed' proved that silence is golden. Even when walking out of the Kodak Theater after the ceremony, the producer of 'The Departed' Graham King still kept a low profile, insisting that this The win was due to luck, ¡°We didn¡¯t expect to win this award, really. "It won the best picture despite being fiercely criticized, which shows that Hollywood is beginning to be dissatisfied with past competitive strategies. The relative big loser was "Winter's Bone", which was publicized by the Weinstein brothers. Ye Wei was clever but was misled by his cleverness. ¡±
"For Ye Wei's supporters, opening the newspaper may not see any good news." "USA Today" reported.
What competitive strategy? Why was Ye Wei so stupid? Fans of the movie are paying attention to the opinions of all parties.
Entertainment Weekly's Oscar analyst Dave Cagel said in hindsight: "The law of the Oscars is that winning a lot of small awards may make you miss the big one. People don't like you to take them all, so if you only aim for the big one, "Pan's Labyrinth" won three minor awards and lost the best foreign language film. The other is Ye Wei's three films. Now it seems that they have thrown all the votes they can control into it. "Winter's Bone" won the Best Picture award, and it lost all the other awards without those votes."
Talking about the upset of the two screenplay awards, Cagle said that this was a chain reaction: "Winter Bone competes with the film and splits the votes. It is like a sacrifice. But Winter Bone has a strong advertising campaign and the best reputation." (Mainstream film review freshness: "Tower of Babel" 59%, "The Departed" 93%, "Letter from Iwo Jima" 94%, "The Queen" 100%, "Winter's Bone" 100%, the total freshness of Winter Bone is 98%. (97% on "The Queen") did remind a lot of people of their support for independent films, and they didn't necessarily vote for Winterbone, but they did make another endorsement, and there weren't many choices this year, and "Half Nelson" luckily Benefited.¡±
"This is all caused by the Winter Bone Chong Film Award. To a certain extent, it took away the female votes of "The Queen", which is one of the reasons why "The Queen" lost. And you have to know that because of helping Scott Seth and the people who voted for "The Departed" rarely wavered, almost never. Winterbone is a spoiler. It didn't win, so others couldn't win. "The Departed" with the most stable votes won."
Cagle concluded: ¡°It can be said that this is all because of the excessive ambitions of Ye Wei and the Weinstein brothers.¡±
Anne Thompson of "The Hollywood Reporter" said: "Ye Wei is like a dam without a gate. He is powerful but cannot control the direction of the torrent."
In all the photos of Ye Wei backstage, dinners, and celebration parties, he is still smiling, and he and his girlfriend Lily are inseparable, either hugging each other's shoulders or holding hands. They are rated as one of the sweetest couples this year. Jennifer Lawrence and other future girls didn't see anything strange, and seemed to be laughing and joking.
Lawrence said in an interview with the Los Angeles Times: "You say this is a cult of personality or whatever, but Ye Wei didn't get an award? That's ridiculous." Alicia Vikander said: "I didn't cry on the spot. "That's a bit exaggerated. I just felt like I couldn't breathe. If it wasn't for my mother's support, I would have fallen to the floor." Saoirse Ronan, the little girl in the group, also said: "Maybe there is something I don't understand." But I support my director and I know how good his job is."
Ye Wei continued to show off his humor: "I am not disappointed, only Mr. Gore will be disappointed, because I have won the 2007 Nobel Peace Prize." He was still taking photosHe hugged Al Gore in front of a movie backdrop and made fun of the former vice president in public: "Mr. Gore, you are right. It is global warming that caused our election failure. It is global warming that puts us in hell."
?Lat described the guests and reporters laughing together, and Al Gore, who was holding the statuette in the photo, was also very happy. Ye Wei's ridicule is not just superficial, it comes from the saying "a-snowball-s-chance-in-hell". Snowball has a chance in hell. What chance does Snowball have in a hell full of raging fire? So it means no chance.
Ye Wei is not without any gains. He won the "Most Humorous Award Speech" and "Whispering Words Award" in the speech selections of many media.
Ellen received mediocre reviews. Although she fulfilled her pre-promised promise to "make this Oscar more civilized," the mild, harmless, and short-sighted style of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" was not particularly popular and was criticized by many critics. criticize. Tim Goodman of the San Francisco Chronicle said: "It is long, bland, bloated, and boring." TV critic Joanne Ostroff of the Denver Post lamented: "German Janis forgot the primary hosting policy of the Academy Awards: it¡¯s not about the hosts.¡±
She made fun of herself without hurting any of the guests, but hurting the guests is what people want to see at the Oscars!
If it were last year's Jon Stewart, he would definitely talk about the scandal between Ye Wei and his teenage actress at the beginning, like "I participated in the viy talent show, and I didn't get the role because I refused to talk to Ye Wei." "If you want to be more poignant," many young girls are concerned about how to star in Ye Wei's movie, the first step is to go to his house to audition at night. "Then the camera will film Lawrence and Vikander, and Jon will say, "Call. Go with your friends and the success rate will be higher.¡±
But this year¡¯s ratings report cards can be compared. According to Nielsen statistics, the awards ceremony attracted an average of 41.82 million viewers, an increase of 2.5% from last year, and approximately 78.62 million people watched all or part of the awards.
¡°I don¡¯t know how many people here were disappointed and cursed because of Ye Wei¡¯s zero award.
??????????????? But it¡¯s true that there is no way to complain, and the independent film industry is very unhappy? The Oscars are not the Independent Spirit Awards, and there's "Half Nelson." Are women upset? There are so many female winners this year. Don¡¯t talk about ethnic issues this year. From the list of nominations to the list of winners, African-American filmmakers are happy; Asian filmmakers are actually winners. It¡¯s not just Yang Ziye who won the award. There are many people behind the scenes of "The Departed". "Dan" Lin Wei, who has been thanked by Scorsese, King, and Monaghan, will be promoted and make a fortune, Roy Lee will also make money, and the trend of Hollywood remakes of Asian movies will become more popular.
??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????? Out of the 10 nominations for "Gangs of New York" 4 years ago, the same people like Scorsese, Leonardo, and Schoonmaker came home with zero awards. Ye Wei's age is definitely a problem, but Peter O'Toole has been with him since he was young and is now in the coffin! What about Scorsese?
In the face of some doubts from various walks of life, Academy Chairman Sid Gannis defended himself to the New York Times: "I don't think the Academy targeted Ye Wei during the award selection process, but he was unlucky this year. That's why. Oscar.¡±
The fans who questioned the most fiercely were fans. Social networks were in a frenzy. Why do so many people hate Anne Hathaway? Because she's not Jennifer Lawrence. Ye Wei doesn't have a prize? That¡¯s ridiculous! viy's power in social networks has exploded again, the Oscar scandal, old guys can't tolerate young people, and he owes him a statuette
"I want one of my nights back!", "Why don't you dye your hair white, then he can get an Oscar, lol."
The crazy-girls channel on YouTube has become very popular because of its latest video "Stella and Safie watch the 79th Oscars with you". They have always been crazy fans of viy. In the previous Oscar prediction video, they got into a war of words because they were arguing about who would win more awards, Ke Gu or Winter Bone. This time they screamed, cursed, threw things, and were frustrated. He had to say nothing, making the Wei Mi people laugh and feel the same way. Stella's closing words, "Oscar is like my life, it sucks." has become a popular saying.
Some movie fans are busy criticizing Harvey Weinstein, blaming this wretched bitch! He had done so many bad things, but Ye Wei had to bear the retribution? So unfair!
According to tmz, the Weinstein brothers hurriedly left the Kodak Theater that night with their heads down, and even canceled the planned celebration party. Their first show after leaving Miramax turned out to be disgraceful, harmful, and laughable! But Harvey Weinstein appeared in some dinner photos, and he should have congratulated Scorsese and others. His face was indeed not very good, and his eyes looked like he wanted to kill someone. Moreover, they have not given interviews to the media so far, apparently taking a cold approach.
Not everyone is grievances for Ye Wei, the same large number of Weihei cheered: "Ye Wei didn'tThe prize really makes me feel happy! He just doesn't deserve it. ", "If it weren't for increasing ratings, he wouldn't even be nominated. ", "Stop bragging about this guy, he shouldn't even be on TV. "
Long before this commotion, Ye Wei posted a tweet on Oscar night, which was then retweeted wildly, and tattoo artists immediately rushed to get tattoos on their bodies:
¡°we_don-t__will_re-great.¡±
We have no regrets because we will be great again.
The North American media said everything, while the Times and other British media complained bitterly. "The Queen" also won the Best Actress as scheduled, so what happened to Peter Morgan who lost the Best Original Screenplay? There was a scene where Steven Frears almost fell asleep while reading for the Best Director nomination all night long. Peter O'Toole was more likely to be humiliated.
The Chinese media and netizens are also very angry. The previous predictions from all parties are almost all wrong. Is Yang Ziye winning the award because of his family scandal? "The Golden Armor", which had been said to be a candidate for the Olympics from the time it was produced, only lost one nomination for Best Costume Design. This caused many people to criticize Oscar, and many people also criticized Zhang Yimou for making a bad movie and getting slapped in the face for trying to please foreigners. Isn't "The Departed" just a remake? It's not as delicate and moving as "The Departed", so why should it win the award? It¡¯s not just because of Lao Ma¡¯s relationship.
And for Brother Wei, who is both loved and hated, there is another shock, not because he won zero prizes, but Ye Wei is playing a big name!
CCTV6 broadcast the awards ceremony on the evening of the 26th, Beijing time. During the red carpet show, Ye Wei was recorded refusing to be interviewed, looking frivolous, and raising her tail after a few nominations. This matter was exposed as early as noon, and some netizens were in a rage.
¡°I have received a few nominations, and I really think I am an expert.¡±, ¡°Block this traitor, criticize him severely, and don¡¯t let him defraud the country¡¯s money!¡±, ¡°The Oscars are held during the day, and you can win the award if you are weak at night. ¡±, ¡°Prostitutes like to have relationships, and they deserve to be despised by Ye Wei.¡± ¡°Ang Lee¡¯s pornographic film, Ye Wei¡¯s perverted drug-related film, bah!¡±
Many online media and bloggers also criticized Ye Wei for being arrogant, ignorant, and embarrassing to his family.
At the same time, other netizens defended Ye Wei: "What did Brother Wei cheat you of? Have his movies been released in China?", "Why do some people still say that Ye Wei can't speak Mandarin?" In the face of all kinds of viciousness, The attack made the young girls Weimi really cry. I believe Weibao, the leaves must unite together at this difficult time!
However, the possibility of Ye Wei playing a big name has been questioned following reports. Luo Yi, general manager of caa China, said in a phone interview with Sina: "Everyone who knows Brother Wei well knows that he is the least likely to play a big name. He is The most arrogant celebrity I have ever seen. Maybe he was just in a hurry."
In the early morning of the 26th, Los Angeles time, and the evening of Beijing time, Ye Wei¡¯s Sina blog added an ¡°Apology Statement Regarding My Acting as a Big Name on the Oscar Red Carpet¡±:
