Chapter 151:

22nd May 2012.

Ever since the release of [Liberty City], there has been a lot going on, both on the internet and inside Hollywood.

The movie was breaking records as it successfully collected more than 3 million dollars on the first day of its screening. It had earned $7 million on its second day, and the figures just kept on exploding like firecrackers, with the first week’s total box office being $49 million.

[Another Box Office Juggernaut by Will Evans

The movie [Liberty City] was released on 15th May 2012 and is a movie directed by one of Hollywood’s most up and coming influential directors, Will Evans. Not only had he managed to outdo himself, but he had also even opened up a path to a whole new genre that had been closed years ago.

[Liberty City] is being taken as a movie that is but a small part of a franchise that Will Evans genius had planned out. As the movie keeps getting popular day after day, it has gathered a lot of critics, and there are a lot of controversial topics from some of the critics.

The famous critics of Hollywood commented on their Sparrow.

@CriticCye: Simply marvellous. With [Liberty City], Will Evans had proven himself as a man of many talents. Not only did he introduce another young and talented star, but he had also even managed to come out with such a masterful story that can easily mark an era. For people who don’t know, all of the music of [Liberty City] is composed by Will Evans personally with his team. 5/5.

@iAmARichMaggot: Utterly shameful and undisguised disregarding of law. The movie projects scenes and language that are truly hateful. Instead of showing the life of a criminal, it shows more of the life of a crime city and how to give wind to that crime. It contains strong messages that your children should be kept away from. The movie’s actors did a great job at portraying such disgraceful characters. 1.2/5. Not Recommended.

@ThePersonAboveMeSucks: One word, Brilliant! I have already watched the movie two times, and I can confidently say that this is one of the best movies in the last five years. It introduces you to the life of a criminal, but it also sucks you in, making you feel like you’re a part of all this. The direction, the acting of the actors, the cinematography, and the music. Everything was perfect. The Only small thing that I felt uncomfortable with was the extremely foul language. But without that, it wouldn’t feel as realistic! 4.9/5. Absolutely recommended.

As we can see above, there are different types of opinions about the movie itself, but that just means how deserving it is. There are tons of fans making thousands of online threads and posts regarding the same topic, and that is [Liberty City].

The post-credit scene has left everyone guessing about what Will Evans is planning again, but one thing is certain: people are eagerly waiting for it!

We at the Weekend Tribunal would personally recommend you to watch the movie once before forming your opinions. Our rating for the film is 5/5. A masterpiece.] – The Weekend Tribunal.

The movie in itself caused a lot of reaction from the audience. However, when everyone thought about the end credit, they weren’t left wondering for long as one of the top game companies in the USA and even the whole world, EC Games’ head, Arnold Rival, posted on his Sparrow, which not only reached the eyes of gamers but the whole of the USA.

@Arnold_Rival: The [GTA: Vice City] trailer, a part of [Liberty City] universe, would be released four months later at the San Francisco gaming convention. It’s a game written and brought up by @Will_Evans, and we will do our best to bring it to beta testers as soon as possible. Sign the beta testing form below.

Everyone couldn’t believe what they were seeing, and some were even asking if all this was a prank. But it was all cleared out as soon as Will Evans replied to Arnold Rival’s tweet on Sparrow himself.

@Will_Evans: Thanks, man! I hope that this collaboration is on for a long time and that people receive that game that I have always dreamt of delivering to them.

As soon as Will replied to the comment, the netizens immediately went into an uproar.

@iAmYou: Holy Shit! I just checked his profile. It’s the real Will Evans!

@NotYourMom: I am a huge fan, sir! Please reply to my comment!

@ReadMyOtherBook: Man, what am I even seeing now? I think I be trippin.

@PleaseReadMyOtherBook: [GTA: Vice City] let’s go!! Can’t wait!!

@PleasePleaseReadMyOtherBook: I was wondering why the credit scene turned into animation instead. A game with those graphics? I get to be a gangster? I am down!

@Its5amAlready: Guys, check my MeTube account! I make entertaining videos!

@IStillHaven’tSlept: Are there going to be other movies of the same franchise? Or the games would continue the story?

27th May 2012

As the tweet of EC’s head went viral, Will told Robert, Leo and Ethan to retweet it. It just garnered an even more enthusiastic response. Will’s strategy to promote the game even before its beta launch was paying off with flying colours. Both professional and casual gamers were eagerly anticipating the game’s arrival.

Not to mention, EC studio received more than a million forms by the end of the week, making their website’s server freeze for two whole hours. Arnold had underestimated Will’s strategy to use his and his actors’ popularity, and now EC’s team were struggling to check out applications of people with no end. They had already closed the form for any further applications.

As the USA was busy waiting for Will’s next move, Will waited for something else.

Yesterday’s box office collection count came out as $98 million, and Will was waiting for it to reach a hundred million, which could be anytime now.

Suddenly, a chilling cold engulfed Will as an ice-like screen formed itself in front of Will.

Will smiled as he saw those texts, and jolts of ecstasy passed throughout his body as he saw the next texts.

Allen Studios Head Office.

Ashton Banasiewicz, the CEO of Allen studios, was currently looking at his laptop, lying back in his chair with his legs folded and putting on his other leg.

Ayden Afify, his secretary, was standing beside him as they talked about the success of [Liberty City].

“[Liberty City] has already crossed the $100 million mark, and it’s estimated that it’ll easily break through the $300 or even $400 million mark with some more time.”

Ayden said as he looked for a reaction in the old yet vigorous man sitting on the recliner chair.

Allen Studios had released their action movie [Recovery Agent] on the same day as [Liberty City], and it was starred a famous A-list actor, Parker Hardmeat. So not only had Allen studios spend a lot of money on the making of the movie, but they’ve also spent quite a sum on the promotion of the movie.

But the movie had failed to show any signs of performance at the box office as all the audience had been tanked by Will Evans’ [Liberty City].

Unfazed by the failure of the movie, Ashton smiled and asked.

“Can you tell me what is one thing that is the same in every Article, every media news along with [Liberty City]?”

As one of his longest-lasting secretaries, Ayden was used to the old man’s antics and immediately answered.

“Maybe how the media is praising it as the best, over the top action movie that has come to theatres after years?”

Ayden replied with uncertainty. He knew that answering with the wrong answer was always better than not answering at all. At least in this old man’s case.

Ashton shook his head at his answer and said as he took a puff of his premium cigarette.

“The movie featured Ethan, a well-known star. Then there was Robert, one of the fastest actors to reach the A-list and filled with talent. And to top it off, there was Leo, a young yet talented actor that managed to pull off a gangster’s style with a scrawny body, definitely someone who would be a big star in the industry. But instead of talking about these people, the media and articles all focus on Will.”

Saying till hare, Ashton smiled as he continued.

“Will is a bonafide superstar now. Someone who can rule decades, a whole era. He is probably the only one to come out as a superstar ever since the last decade.”

“What do you mean by a superstar?”

Ayden asked curiously as Ashton replied.

“A superstar can bring in a large crowd to the theatres, no matter what the movie is, and Will is such a superstar.”

“With [The Blair Witch Project] he was a newbie, [Sherlock Holmes] turned him into a reliable director, [500 days of Summer] cemented that belief and [1917] would probably tie an Oscars to his name. And now [Liberty City] is nothing but a cherry on the cake, to make everything look more beautiful and elegant.”

Ashton finally finished as he seemed to be looking far into the distance.

“Then…sir.. What should we do?”

Ayden asked.

“Don’t worry. I have plans for Allen Studios myself. I never thought I would have to take them out so early.”

Taking a last puff of smoke inside, Ashton put out the cigarette by crushing it on the ashtray beside him.

“Hn… Will.”
