"Angelina! Ms. Jolie! Angenlina Jolie! Let me say that dress is STUNNING! What did you do to prepare for this role? What attracted you to this caracter or this particular script?" Those are questions and statements you can hear shouted at ANYONE of the numerous movie celebs starring in films these days at non-other, than the infamous Hollywood Movie Premiers. Before a movie can be released to the masses of viewers world wide, it has to be "premiered." That means that all of the stars of Hollywood and the producers, agents, families, and friends get to view it first and have a red carpet enterence and parties afterward. There are premiers every week, every day in Hollywood and all over the world, but still, sometimes, companies go ALL OUT for the premiere of their movies. Making them larger-than-life and throwing away millions for just a few hours of before and after activities...plus the screening of course. There are circus performers, singers, bands, artists, and so much more along the walks towards the enterance of the theater. But reguardless of whether or not the premier is overblown, the actors and actresses get all dolled up in Emy-worthy gowns, accessories, and tuxedos.
Only few lucky people get to experience a real premiere in their lifetime. I think it'd be a great experience. See the "stars" up close and personal, see a movie before anyone else, be treated like they do for once. People go to extreme lengths to experience even just a day of what celebreties events are like.
After the premier, the critics get to screen it and publish their thoughts, feelings, and takes on the film. The more the critics approve of the art piece, the more the audience sees and spends on the movie. If a movie makes a killing in the box office, then the actors, directors, producers and everyone else involved in the production of the film get a "little" extra spending money in their pockets. However, if it dies in the box office, it can still make sales off of the DVD release.

I also think that it would be awesome to get to see a movie before anyone else and see all the movie actors and actresses in their stunning attire! I never knew that ther really did that though...I guess I kind of knew but I never really read about it until now and it actaully made me think about how sweet that is that they actually do that with the performers, bands and singers! Interesting post!
ReplyDeleteI agree! I would love to see what it would be like to be a celebrity...even if just for a day. It would be interesting to see what getting all dolled up and going to a HUGE party would be like. For most of us the closest we'll get is the prom.
ReplyDeleteI would also like to see what it would be like to be one of the critics. They seem to have alot of power when it comes to judging what is good and what is bad. That in turn decides the fate of the movie, which then decides if the actor will be paid extra or not. Ooh, that would be a fun decision!
As much as I would love to be a celebrity and be treated like one, I think it is absolutely ridiculous how much they get paid, and how much attention they get. They are just people who have a very public life, and a lot of money. Not a big deal, in my opinion. It's stupid how much money they spend on gowns and tuxedos to wear to these huge premiers, and parties they have. They are dressed in these clothes for only a few hours! Then never wear these clothes again. What a waste!
ReplyDeleteI do agree it would be fun to be a critic. It would be fun to decide how much they make off the movie and how it rates. In all honesty if it were me making decisions they would not be making as much money as they do!
It would be the experience of a lifetime to partake in Holly Wood at its finest. The glimmer and all the glam would be great to experience. Plus one could see the not so glamorous clothing choices the celebrities get to wear first hand. I have also heard that the stars do some pretty stupid things that not everyone gets to hear about. I don't know maybe I just would like to see that celebrities are just like us "normal" people and make mistakes as well. This was a very thought provoking blog Elise, making me want to have the “star” treatment myself. On the other hand living my life in front of a camera doesn't sound too appealing...
