《My Hollywood System》MHS - Chapter 149
Advertisement
15th May 2012.
It was an important day for Will today. The premiere of [Liberty City] was decided on this date and everyone was preparing themselves to join the grand premiere.
Unlike other movies of Will, this was getting a proper solo premiere because of the fact that [Liberty City] was considered as one of the most anticipated movies of the year.
Added to the fact was that Will was now considered as a properly established director, unlike his previous movies where there were tons of doubts about him and his movies.
It has already been a month since they decided on the [GTA: Vice City] game’s idea and EC Games had officially signed a win-win contract with Dream Vision. As long as the movie earned more than $200 million, the game was expected to become a success.
Will had even said that if the game didn’t work because of his movie instead of them not being able to come up with the game that he described, then he would bear all the losses. Of course, that just added to the fact that more than half of the game’s profits would go in his pocket if the game succeeded.
In the last month, they had finished the reshoot that Will had planned and it came out perfectly, added to the fact that the animation part that they were aiming to add in the end came out fabulously too, making Will more delighted and content.
Since there was quite a larger time gap between the original GTA release than this world’s, Will could proudly claim that the graphics were coming out much better and more realistic, although they were still nowhere near the era of 2020s that Will had witnessed.
Today’s premiere was for the media, Mega Works, Dream Vision, and some of the guests from various studios and talent agencies. A lot of famous critics were invited and to Will’s surprise, many had said that they would attend the premiere.
Will was still at his home. As soon as he came out of the bath, he went in front of his dressing table. Today’s suit was especially prepared by a famous fashion designer called Carl McLord.
It was a black designer overcoat with just a black shirt inside. Jeffrey and Alexia both have suggested Will get a personal dressing team but he said he would be fine for now. After getting ready, Will got down and met with June who was also ready.
She was wearing an exotic purple long dress that had a cut near her left leg and some kind of flower embroidery at her right shoulder.

They both walked out and got into Will’s Bentley, as Will drove off into the distance.
***
Grauman’s Chinese School, Los Angeles, California.
The theatre has especially booked for the premiere [Liberty City]. It was a famous theatre that shared deep history with Hollywood and was one of the 3 major movie premiere locations of the United States.
Will’s Bantley made its way to the theatre and as soon as it stopped, camera shuttles and flashlights started coming from the crowd of paparazzi.
Will got out of the car and handed the keys to the pre-appointed chauffeur. June also walked out as they started walking inside the theatre.
“Sir, sir, please sir one question.”
“What do you think about the movie premiere?”
“How much would the movie make according to you?”
“Mr Evans, what do you think about the current situation of MCA?”
“Are you….”
Questions sounded out as the crowd of paparazzi crazily started to ask questions. Even a slight reaction out of will could be worth thousands of dollars worth of content.
Will just walked silently without replying to any questions as he already had an interview planned after the movie premiere was over.
Sweeping a light glance at the crowd of paparazzi, he walked forward. Suddenly something clicked in his mind as he turned his head immediately and looked around the faces of paparazzi, without finding what he was looking for.
He decided not to make a scene and went inside, but something kept bothering him in his mind.
‘I think I saw a familiar face in the bunch of paparazzi… who could it be?’
He thought as he finally reached the venue.
The main hall was filled with people, from influential Hollywood stars to the crowd of critics and media. People from Mega Works, and ICM were present too. Someone or the other from the big 6 studios were present, making it quite the scene.
The whole cast and team of [Liberty City], [500 days of Summer] and [1917] was present too, as everyone formed small groups where they talked.
“You guys are here.”
Amanda was the first one to notice Will and June’s entrance and came to pick them up.
“Yeah. You look beautiful today.”
Will commented as they started walking towards Jeffrey’s group in the near distance.
Amanda was wearing a low cut burgundy colored dress and looked much younger than she actually was. And she had a certain sexy charm to her today that usually wasn’t noticeable in her office lady clothes.
“Thank you Will. You look handsome too, as usual. You too, June. You look absolutely stunning in that dress. Wow, did you get your nails done?”

Amanda started talking to June as the girls got so engrossed in their talk that they forgot about June. Will walked up to Jeffrey, who was talking to Abraham Hayes and Micheal Williams.
“Look at who has decided to show up, welcome Mr Evans.”
Abraham said in a cheerful voice as he raised he did a handshake.
“The premiere is of my own movie, of course I’d have to show up.”
Will said as he laughed a little.
“What can anyone say even if you didn’t attend? After all, someone is popular for rarely attending any event they’re invited to because they’re always working. Hahaha.”
Micheal said teasingly and everyone chuckled at that.
“I hope the premiere goes well. I am really excited and nervous about the media’s and critic’s reactions.”
Jeffery said, excitement and the fear of the unknown clearly displayed on his face.
“I don’t know, but I’ll leave the worries to you guys. It’s a Will Evans’ movie, I would be sure to sit tight and watch the movie, lest I miss out on fun.”
Abraham said, trying to act like a fanboy.
Everyone laughed at that and finally, after 10 or so minutes, everybody started moving inside the theatre.
The movie would be premiered soon and the rush of important people made it seem like any other housefull movie’s cinema, but with a twist of audience. The audience being famous celebrities, critics and media personnels.

The movie was about the life of a gangster, which not only managed to capture the essence of such movies, but also the heart of the audience.
From the rise of Mario Di Mauro to the fall of Tommy Vercetti, everything was so thrilling that at the end of the movie, it leaves no room for dissatisfaction.
Apart from the movie itself, the audience is more excited about what was hinted at the end of the movie. There was a scene of young Tommy Vercetti fighting with his enemies and mid fight, the real scene turned into animation and the animated version of Tommy Vercetti completed the scene.
As the scene ended, there was a credit scene with bold fonts reading [GTA: Vice City]. According to the movie, Vice city is the city from where Tommy Vercetti hails from. Is this a prelude to a prequel movie starring the young Tommy Vercetti? Or is it something else entirely?
One thing is for certain. There are a lot of questions, and according to Will’s interview after the premiere, these questions would be answered soon.
With all that said, will we be seeing another movie with similar box office like [Sherlock Holmes]? That’s the real question.] – The Weekend Tribunal.

There were a lot of new articles solely based on Will Evans and his movie. There were many who were comparing it to existing gangster movies and said that it was one of the better gangster movies done extremely well.
On a famous online forum, the title alone gathered a lot of people.
[R/Liberty City
u/averagestudent: You shouldn’t move even after the credits roll, because something special would come!!
u/cute.as.duck: I totally agree with the OP. Don’t leave your seats till you’ve watched the credits.
u/google_was_my_idea: Man… what even happens? Why is everyone making a fuss about credit scenes? Don’t you all have something funnier to do on the internet? For example, post memes to entertain me. xD
u/BadKarma: I second the guy above me. I haven’t watched the movie yet since I don’t really like all this criminal stuff. Yet people be making a fuss about a simple credit scene. Man, get a life.
u/fast_and_the_curious: The dudes above me, you should get a life. The movie was f*cking epic and the end credit clearly left a title. Everyone's saying its a movie prequel but trust me, my curious guts are saying that it could be a game. If what I said is true then I really am fast. XD
u/fedora_the_explorer: I think what you said might really turn out to be true! OMG! I am so excited >////< ]
