In the past, even the audience had just entered the front foot, and the bad movie warning was sent out in less than ten minutes. After all, if the movie was really bad, people would start leaving at the beginning.
In the forum, the most lively live movie viewing experience that attracted the attention of netizens came from a pair of bitter couple. The two set all the schedules from February 13 to February 14 across the day, from eating to singing. But the boy just forgot to book a movie ticket, but in the end he faced the beatings of the society— “Crossover Love” and “Dengxian Road”. It was just right. There was one ticket left, and they were all in the bordering position of the screening room. He decided to turn bad luck into good luck, simply came to the forum and opened this building, and decided to broadcast two movie evaluations at the same time.
The “live broadcast” mentioned here was not the kind of spoiling, but the use of text to share the movie viewing experience without spoiling as much as possible.
Due to the couple’s legendary attributes and the ability to squat to two fresh film reviews at the same time, most night owls were squatting in this building to eat melon.
Just less than twenty minutes after twelve o’clock, the girlfriend Strawberry appeared in the building.
Strawberry: (Don’t stop, I ’m at the far corner, the phone ’s brightness is the lowest, and it doesn’t affect other people ’s viewing) The movie viewing experience is perfect. Director Chen Aiming played well, and now it looks good!
Strawberry: Chen Aiming is too good at shooting women (Yi Yi), I don’t know how to boast, I don’t know if it’s shooting angle or hue, I always think that the actress in his lens looks better than others, especially with style, the storytelling is not unique, but I still feel a little bit of a sense of separation. Before one story is finished, it cuts to another story. Although there are connections, it is not coherent.
….
There were more and more girls, and everyone interacted with her when they suddenly reacted-wait, what about the actor? Where did that big brother whose ID was eat strawberries?
After some debate, everyone reached an agreement. In all likelihood, this “Dengxian Road” movie was too boring. The big brother fell asleep before he could reply. Even though Strawberry was persistent, his boyfriend probably fell fall asleep while watching the movie, and couldn’t reverse this impression.
The total length of “Crossover Love” was two hours, but “Dengxian Road” lasted for 135 minutes. So, Strawberry who ended the movie interacted with everyone in the post in a boring way, waiting by the way for a boyfriend who didn’t know what he was doing.
As soon as the time for the movie got over, Strawberry just turned around and saw her boyfriend and others rushing out of the screening room together, the target toilet ran wild, and the audience behind them walked happily, one by one, the discussion was energetic, and the eyes were not sleepy.
At this time, the other protagonist in the post finally started to update madly.
Eating strawberries: I didn’t fall asleep! I’ve been holding it back for more than two hours, now I’m grabbing the toilet, wait for the report!
The senior late-night champions who had not fallen asleep were keenly aware of the different wind directions. They were not stupid and could make people sting for more than two hours without playing movies on mobile phones and toilets.
Eat strawberry: Here it is! I don’t know how to describe it more appropriately, but this movie is the best movie I have seen in three years! Under the 3D effect, I really feel that if I am also standing on the top of Yunhai Mountain, I look at it from the perspective of onlookers. Because I can’t post a spoiler, I can only tell this story. If you don’t take your mind to watch, it is a very orthodox business routine. Teenagers and girls who want to become immortals, worship Xianzong, and then cultivate their true heart to see it all, it is the story of waiting for Xianlu, but if you take your mind to see it, it is actually a “everything waiting for you”, with all things in mind and heart. Although it may not change my life, but I must go against the sky.
Eating strawberries: I don’t know if my evaluation will be too high, but I think this is a film that is definitely not lost. It is a localized “popcorn film” in the true sense. It only says special effects, the effect is enough to return to the original, but it has the implicit connotation peculiar to the Chinese, which is faintly expressed in it. And the director ’s aesthetics can really only be described as awesome. I think the crew should have put in a lot of effort to achieve the effect. I can’t even imagine how this was achieved.
Eating strawberries: I regret not having watched the iMAX version. On the ordinary screen, I think it is a blasphemy to the director and the special effects team! I’m going to discuss it with Strawberry, and then buy a ticket for two brushes. By the way, every actor in the movie is very unique, that is, what is he acting like, the devil is the devil, the immortal is the fairy, and the demon is the demon. Among them, Sui Yan’s role is too subversive, charming and pure, pure desire, I think this role may be the second classic role after her debut.
In order to be responsible for everyone in the post, eating strawberries and strawberries, sitting together, first finished the inquiry in the post, and as soon as he looked up, the opposite girlfriend couldn’t help but ask: “Which one do you think we should watch? How about watching the one that waits?” She was no longer sleepy now, and wanted to see what her boyfriend’s best film of the year looked like.
After listening to eating strawberries for a while, he hesitated for a while and nodded in agreement. After all, he was too excited to sleep now, but when the two opened the ticketing software, they were directly at the scene.
Originally, there were not many shows arranged by the theatre in the middle of the night. The next six games until six in the morning were sold out!
Eating strawberries looked around, and found that several brothers who were still grabbing popcorn together were sitting there playing mobile phones, and already guessed the reason for the lack of tickets. He had to take his girlfriend and should go home to sleep.
When the first batch of moviegoers came home and went to sleep, the storm triggered by “Dengxian Road” had just begun. The movie did not need the help of word of mouth at all, and the ticketing website rating that had soared to 9.8 immediately after the end of the movie and the movie rating website rating of up to 9 points was enough to attract viewers into the theatre.
Originally criticized by some people for appearing in too many films, at this time it seemed to be not enough. If you can’t buy a ticket, or even if you can buy it, you can only pick up the corner seats for the movie. The pressure caused theatres to add more shows.
And among them, unlike other popular movies, there was a voice that was particularly loud: “Can you open more iMAX seats? Money is not a problem, I want to see it in iMAX!” It was very expensive, except for the introduction of films, there were very few times when the attendance rate of the giant curtain hall was filled more than two-thirds, and during this time, “Dengxian Road” even made the giant curtain hall to reach nearly 90%. Only 10% seats failed to be sold because at the corner position of the giant curtain hall, some people thought that the angle of view was not as good so it was easy to get dizzy.
In the first week when everyone couldn’t grab the ticket, “having a ticket” instead became a kind of ostentatious capital, and the family members of employees from the company deep in the forest even drove the hatred “Valentine ’s Day union welfare” online, three “Dengxian Road” movie tickets per person registered with the labour union and agreed to arrange a theatre special viewing. At the beginning, they also wanted to talk about some fairy-tale films, but now they thought the leader praised the leader.
Before the show, the two were in the limelight, and “Crossover Love”, which was rival to “Dengxian Road”, had no sound, and even their home theatre line had quietly adjusted the film’s ranking to 100%. Even investors who realized that something was wrong had invested a lot of naval forces, but it did not help.
In fact, “Crossover Love” was not bad. As a love movie, its rating on the rating website was stable above seven points, which was definitely not bad.
The problem was that it was not good enough. Under the impact of a movie that could truly be called phenomenal, it was unable to fight back and lost ground.
One critic’s comment was reposted countless times, and he wrote: “When it’s too late, it’s a portrayal of this movie. It’s a good movie, but it’s too small in front of “Dengxian Road”. If he had changed the schedule, maybe he could have twice the box office, but in this schedule with the last name, it is destined to only play a supporting role.”
“Dengxian Road” was not the way to counterattack, but the way to seal the gods.
Its first-day box office, on the contrary, was the lowest day of its first week’s box office. After word-of-mouth spread, it burned the fire of the epic named “Dengxian Road”.
On the Barrage website, videos clipped with the trailers released by it were ranked at the top of the rankings of the station. In the well-known fan sites, various scrambled CP’s emerge endlessly. Various marketing numbers and media had also started to rise.
Overnight, as if you don’t know “Dengxian Road” on the social network and there was no common topic with others, the self-media also had a short video with this period of time, called “How to teach the church not to watch “Dengxian Road”. You quickly integrated into social situations, “and received nearly two million likes.
Although everyone knew the crime of Waterloo in “Crossover Love”, many people had voluntarily ran to the bottom of Weibo Chen Aiming’s grass, copying and pasting and asking him: “Now you know at Valentine’s Day, who is the winner of the stall?”
The person who posted the Weibo just intended to be ridiculous, but did not want to receive a reply from Chen Aiming half a month after the movie was released. This reply was short, but it caused another wave.
“I lost.”
