Hollywood What If Chapter 55
The official filming of The Haarted.
At the Caesars Pace, dozens of reporters started taking pictures for the press ference of The Hangover.
Producer Enrico Pusi and Kazir Grey faced the cameras ahe reporters ask them bunches of questions.
Of course, the Producer and Director had to ahem the best as they could.
Thankfully, most of the questions were mild. Someoually tried to ask about Kazir's past retionship but Kazir answered it well.
"As long as it's not reted to The Hangover, I will not a."
"Directrey, is it true that Ed Helms tried to ask for a sary of 5 million dolrs."
"That's right."
There was no reason to keep it a secret. Most people in the circle knew what happened.
These reporters were uime Warime Warner was one of the media giants in the world. So Warner Bros had a strong influeh the bag of Time Warner.
Kazir uood that some of the reporters' questions were for the purpose of attrag attention.
Such as 'Kazir's new love life' or 'Fri between the Napoleon Dynamite actor and Director.'
These articles would be published by the paparazzi. As long as it could help the movie to attract attention, thehing was fine.
Kazir was already informed about the questions that might be asked.
'Of course, I don't have any problem with Ed Helms. He is a hard-w person. This is nothing but publicity.'
Publicity was the main factor in having a successful movie. So film panies would i so much money just to advertise their movies. As long as the movie was worth it, panies would i in publicity.
The best example might be the st year's Batman Forever... The overall publicity cost of the movie was 100 million.
With the 100 million produ cost plus 100 million publicity... The movie was a clear disappoi.
'However, I heard that the videotapes are selling well. Many kids are dreaming to bee like Superman or Batman.'
With the iion of Vd VHS pyer, the Hollywood industry gained power and their profits every year were astronomical. So Warner Bros decided to make another Batman movie wo years.
'Batman and Robin... That's right, the infamous Batman suit with nipples.'
Many people said that Batman's suit was ugly because of the nipples, which was right to be ho.
Clearly one of the reasons why Warner Bros kept the Batman series hidden for almost ten years.
'If not for Christopher Non, Batman might be forever stayed in their film libraries.'
The press ferended and the reporters dispersed.
Kazir and the crew started their shooting.
"Se 36: The Elevator. Lights, Camera, A."
The one who was holding the cpperboard was Fremont Smith.
-------
With the four actors ihe elevator(three adult men and a baby), the camera started rolling.
"... Why 't we remember a Goddamn thing st night."
Stu(Ed Helms) said while putting a towel on his mouth. He was fused about why he was missing a tooth.
"Because, obviously we had a great fug time."
Phil(Bradley Cooper) replied, leaning against the wall.
"Why don't you stop w for just one minute?" Phil slightly raised his voibsp;
"I don't Phil, maybe because I'm missing a tooth. Or maybe, it's because we have a tiger in our hotel room. Oh, wait, wait, wait, I know! Maybe because we found a baby in our room! A human baby! That's it. That's it. It's because we found a fug baby!"
"I don't think you should curse around the child."
An(Jack Bck) faced Stu. An was wearing a baby carrier and the child was on his chest.
"Really? I don't think you should be around a child."
The elevator opened.
------
"Cut! Ten minutes rest. Let's reshoot this se. Jane, call your team aouched their makeup."
"Okay."
Kazir could say that the first se was good.
"How's the baby?"
"He's cute... Although I felt like he peed on me."
Jack Bck bitterly smiled as he sat down. That's right, the baby that he was holding was a real baby.
For a close-up se, it was impossible to use a prop(fake baby).
"I'm sorry about that."
The mother apologized and held her child. She was a friend of Producer Enrico Pusi. They audition after hearing that the crew needed a baby.
"Hush, hush, baby~"
"Hehe~"
Because of the giggling of the baby, the atmosphere was calming.
"Ed, I want you to deliver your line in a more exhausted way in the first half. Although you still have to raise your voice at the tter."
Kazir approached Ed Helms who was currently receiving a makeup.
"I uand Director."
Ever sihey cooperated in Napoleon Dynamite, Ed Helms realized that Kazir took importan line deliveries. The dialogues should be taken seriously.
Then, Kazir Bradley Cooper.
"Keep yourself in good dition."
"Thank you, Director."
In the crew, Bradley Cooper and Jack Bck were part of the newers. They didn't have any idea of how Kazir used his position.
Was he a tyrant? A pacifist? Or a silent madman?
Because Jack Bd Bradley Cooper were the protagonists, they didn't want to cause trouble o. So they were doing their job well.
Ohe ten minute break was over, Kazir started the shooting again.
Unfortunately, a few seds after the camera began rolling, the baby started g and everyone was caught off guard.
"Cut..."
Kazir sighed. He already expected this.
He khis was going to happen, so he decided to shoot all of the ses in which the child art of within three days.
"... Ten minutes rest."
He muttered after the first NG.
It was impossible to talk to a baby. Perhaps the only one who could do that was the mother.
