894 opening surprise
Thunderous applause. Billy Crystal is worthy of being a comedian who has held the Oscar host microphone nine times. Hollywood’s support and support, accumulated over many years and polished by countless experiences, are extraordinary..
Amid much anticipation and in full view of everyone, Billy left the stage and came to the guest seats, finally standing next to Ryan and Renly. The whistles and booing at the scene became more and more violent. Not only because after the opening ceremony, Billy unexpectedly actions; also because of the simultaneous appearance of Ryan and Renly——
2011In 2016, the two most popular and talked-about representatives of the new generation of actors, many people call them the twin stars that complement each other with "George Clooney and Brad Pitt", and they are undoubtedly the most watched tonight. Focus. Now, just in the opening scene, Billy has already fixed the camera lens on the two people..
Quietly waiting for the cheers and shouts to calm down, Billy said with a smile on his face, "I just think that the audience in front of the TV would like to see the faces of these two handsome guys." This joke once again made the whole audience laugh. The audience burst into laughter, and Renly and Wren exchanged glances, both unable to help but laugh..
“Sorry, Renly, I tried to edit you into the short film, but I have already kissed George, and there is no way to be in the same boat, so please forgive me." Billy said seriously and explained. The reason why "Crazy Love" doesn't appear in the opening video is that it also focuses the attention on Renly in a *** way..
In fact, the real reason is that in the past month, things have happened one after another, and Renly has no time to participate in the behind-the-scenes filming of the video..
Faced with Billy's teasing, Renly shouted back:.
It's a pity that Renly didn't wear a microphone. In order to create a surprise at the opening, the organizer did not hand over the microphone to Renly in time. They hoped that Renly and Renly would show real unexpected reactions, so others could not hear it at all. However, All the guests in the circle around Renly heard it. In an instant, everyone clapped their hands and laughed. Even Meryl Streep laughed so hard that she turned around and faced Lanly. Thumbs up.
Billy opened his mouth slightly, obviously not expecting Renly's counterattack - everyone knows that Renly is outstanding in eloquence, but this is an Oscar, not a Golden Globe, and the level and specifications are different. Who knows, Renly The counterattack is so sharp and humorous, it really makes people’s eyes shine..
However, Billy, who has been on the battlefield for a long time, did not panic at all. He looked around and said, "Huh, maybe we should invite Robert Pattinson. Audiences between the ages of 18 and 24 may like it more." The ridicule aroused the emotions of a group of people around Renly, who burst into laughter..
Of course, everyone else in the venue also laughed - Robert Pattinson's joke is actually the same as Justin Bieber's. The stars of "Twilight" are really not welcomed by the academy, even if Robert is extremely popular, but he is still not invited to attend tonight. However, without Renly's response just now, it is like a piece of the puzzle is missing. Something is wrong.！
However, Billy had no intention of answering. He stepped back to the stage and continued his hosting..
The guests were almost tortured to death by curiosity. They all whispered to each other and asked: What did Renly say just now?？
“Thank you, thank you very much." Billy stood on the stage again, looking at the commotion of the guests below the stage, and said with a smile, "The applause just now was really loud, very close.’.”
Ridiculing the title of the Oscar Best Picture nominee, it is vivid and appropriate; it also makes up for the regret that this work was not edited in the short film, "Of course, my relatives and friends are watching tonight's ceremony in front of the TV at home. , 'extremely loud, extremely close', that's how they watch it too.”
The same sentence has different meanings due to different occasions and different objects. The guests at the scene burst into laughter..
“This is my ninth time hosting the Oscars." Billy looked at the scene with a smile, waiting for applause..
But at this moment, many people were deserting, asking the same question: What did Renly respond just now? As a result, the applause at the scene was a little sparse. It was so unexpected, but it was also something that the TV station and the organizer did not expect..
But Billy was calm and showed a puzzled expression, "Nine times." He emphasized again, and then shook his head, "This is not the reaction I expected. Do I have to wait until the tenth time? God , I think this may be a bit difficult." This time, the laughter was scattered, like the sound of splashing water, one after another..
“We are all here in the U.S. Code Chapter 11 Theater." Billy continued to host calmly, but his first words triggered a collective burst of applause, whistles and laughter..
Chapter 11 of the United States Code, Bankruptcy. Kodak is filing for bankruptcy and automatically loses the naming rights of the theater. In other words, after its completion in 2001, the theater has been using the "Kodak Theater" as the venue for the Oscars for the past ten years. , will now become history.
Just three days before the awards ceremony, the court approved Kodak's bankruptcy application. CIM Group, which owns the Kodak Theater, made a request to the Oscar organizers, hoping that the Academy would no longer mention "Kodak" in the promotion and live broadcast of the awards ceremony. Theater" instead was renamed "Hollywood & Highland Center", referring to the Hollywood & Highland Center where the Kodak Theater is located before acquiring new naming rights..
The college agreed to the request.
But obviously, it is not easy to change the habits of the past ten years in just three days. So, there was Billy's ridicule, and at the same time, there was an enthusiastic response from the audience..
“We are here to celebrate this traditional Hollywood event, creating beautiful memories while also breeding lifelong hatred." Billy's calm and restrained humor always brings political and social criticism of current ills, "We are part of such a great industry. , movies can always allow us to escape stress and provide entertainment. No matter what happens, the cinema is always there waiting for us to laugh, cry, question, reflect and text..”
Billy's words continued, but he paused for a moment, "Send a text message?" People responded immediately, and the laughter started again..
“So, tonight we come together and have fun." Billy shrugged and said jokingly, "Because there is no better antidote to the pain of the world economy than watching a bunch of millionaires award each other a statuette with no clothes on..”
There was laughter and applause again. Then, Billy once again entered his classic bridge period: connecting all the Best Picture nominees in the style of a Broadway opera, singing loudly, interspersed with laughter, and a little bit of performance, A little bit of teasing, a little bit of humor, and of course, a little bit of joy.
The reason why Billy Crystal is so popular at the Oscars is not because he is the funniest, but because he is the most appropriate.
Sarcasm and ridicule are limited, ridicule and joking are throughout, and relaxation and cheerfulness are more lively atmosphere. He will not be too radical, launch personal attacks or seize on social hot spots; he will not be too clumsy, humorous and burdensome. Improper control. At the same time, his elegance and maturity as a golden age actor are in line with Oscar's consistent image..
Almost each of the nine nominated works only lasts for 20 to 30 seconds, but Billy's smooth, elegant and comfortable performance truly puts the Kodak Theater - Hollywood and Highland Center into the atmosphere of a Broadway theater. Among them, after all nine nominated works were connected, Billy covered his chest with his hands, shook his head and said, "Sorry, Ryan and Renly, you need to continue working hard next year..”
A casual joke created the biggest laugh and highlight of the entire singing series. All the guests applauded and cheered..
Finally, Billy stood at the center of the stage, "Nine parts, this is nine parts. Tonight's performance will be very exciting. Also, if you are curious about what Renly said just now, please stay until the end of the award ceremony." time, don’t turn the channel because of the commercials, and don’t doze off because of the four-hour show. So, stay tuned.”
Pause, silence; then, laughter.
Jessica bumped Renly with her left elbow and shook her head with a smile, "God, everyone is asking, even Alexander Payne..”
During Billy's performance, a small area with Renly as the center became the focus of everyone's attention. Curious inquiries were endless. People were always whispering and exchanging the few words they had heard. No. The noisy stormy waves were instead calm ripples, spreading out bit by bit..
Renly spread his hands with a helpless expression, "I have an ominous feeling that Billy Crystal will continue to cause trouble for me." Not to mention Alexander Payne, even Martin Sitting behind Renly Kosis also patted him on the shoulder and asked seriously, "What on earth did you just say? I didn't hear clearly..”
Looking back, Renly saw Ryan's expression of suppressed laughter and joy. Obviously, watching the show was a lot of fun..
Renly rolled his eyes helplessly, "So, do you want to？”
Ryan waved his hands repeatedly and hurriedly denied it. After all, he couldn't hold back his smile and burst into laughter..
“Are you sure it's not because you don't want to shave your head? "This was Renly's response just now.——
Billy teases Renly with "crazy love". This is a love movie. If a spoof short film is made, then Billy will inevitably fall in love with Renly, but in the real short film, Billy and Renly George kissed him for real, so Billy said "I can't stand in two boats."”.
Renly teased Billy with "I am fighting cancer": the head-shaving scene in the movie triggered countless discussions; and Billy's hair volume is indeed worrying.
This short confrontation revealed not only Renly's wit, but also Renly's humor, which really opened Billy's eyes..
While talking and laughing, Billy invited the first award presenter, Tom Hanks, to present the first trophy tonight: Best Photography Award.
Award ceremony begins.
