Chapter 49 Box Office Comparison (2/8)
"Ferryman" was announced to be launched on July 14 last year and was scheduled to release promotional materials in mid-October this year.
An urban love comedy actually takes ten months to shoot!
Generally, the normal filming cycle will not be so long. Movies of the same size are often compressed in just two months - because the time of a celebrity is too expensive, the crew has to support so many people, so filming is often the norm for more than ten hours a day.
So is it because of the spirit of craftsmanship, and is it that slow work is done?
The marketing methods of movies often make people feel dreamy and can turn black and white. The mistakes in coordination, the disorder of production, and the chaos in shooting can be covered up and packaged in the end, so that the buyer and seller are sincerely grateful for the performances. Tragedy is always the strong needle for weak liars.
In the repost of "The Ferryman", Xiaohua, who was praised by the golden rooster and hundreds of flowers, was even more obedient, saying that she had passed every one of her dozens of times, and she hoped that everyone could see her efforts in the movie.
There is a passage in "The King of Comedy": "Do you know that you have wasted so many people on the crew's time, and every one is money, and everyone has to spend it over and over again because of you."
Because you are not professional, you can waste other people's resources, work hard on yourself, and then dump positive energy values with the entire market, so that everyone can cheer for you...
Well, when it comes to "The Ferryman", the plot is probably...
Forget it, I won’t talk about the plot anymore, because it’s not a movie either.
The narration is a hundred times more than the conversation, and half of the conversation is not human words. The narration for an hour and a half is nothing more than changing the body scent of chicken soup. A pot of sour text, labeling and bottles can be used to intercept the feeling of sleeping for a month. However, it is all bullshit.
It's really even more distracting than prose. "Tiny Times" has a complete plot at least, and the movie is broken like it's like squeezing Zhang Jiajia out of a meat grinder.
If you don’t have the directorial skills of “True Love First”, don’t mix multiple short stories together. Isn’t it good to tell a complete story?
Most of the viewers who have finished "The Ferryman" will say something when they walk out of the cinema: "Damn it, mentally retarded!"
This shows that the director’s aesthetic is very important and he also has a specialty in his profession!
...
The first screening ended, and the scores on both sides and film reviews were released...
"I think "Full-band Blocking Interference" is really ignited. After watching this movie, I feel that Hollywood blockbusters are really weak! In terms of sex, it is definitely a milestone for domestic genres. The rhythm of the 2 and a half hours of film is tight and clear, both passionate and shocking. The narrative, characters, emotions, actions, and production are all impeccable."
"When I was in high school more than ten years ago, I was shocked by the novel by electricians when I watched "Science Fiction World". Later I found out that the original version was the Chinese version, and China was changed to Russia for the purpose of publishing. After watching the Chinese version, I kept thinking that it would be able to make a movie. Now my dream has come true. I just finished watching the movie and felt so tragic, so shocking, absolutely shocking."
"If you describe it in one word, it is awesome; two words, awesome! Three words, awesome! Four words, awesome! The whole movie is two and a half hours, with high energy throughout the whole process, no cold scenes at all, and high. Climax wave after wave. I haven't seen such a shocking scene for many years, and my heart is really about to pop out! It's no exaggeration to say "Save the Soldier" and "Black Hawk Down" are all weak!"
Of course, it's a bit exaggerated. "Save the Soldier" and "Black Hawk Fallen" are all classic movies, but they are not very touching enough!
Because they are not the People's Liberation Army!
There is a passage in "The Full Channel Blockage Interference": "Tanks all over the mountains are lined up in neat queues toward this side, which is the PLA's steel torrent.
The camera cuts over the tank group, shoots the camera on the top and creates diagonal composition. With the roar of the engine, the heavy artillery on the tank roars one by one, as if they want to vent all the depressions of these days."
During the shooting, more than 300 tanks were used, and the visual effect was not comparable to that of ordinary movies!
Of course, the crew also paid nearly 30 million yuan in rental fees...
"The Full Channel Blocking Interference" is a real blockbuster, "The Ferryman"...
Well, a romantic comedy.
If the filming is good, it may be a good match. After all, so many big stars gathered together. "My Grand Greek Wedding" competed against "The Scorpion King" that year, and won a local result of US$241 million, directly surpassing "The Scorpion King" several times the box office...
Unfortunately, "The Ferryman" was not well filmed...
All are bad reviews!
There is no need for Yuehua to send a navy army to slander...
"The flowers are red and green, demons and monsters, golden songs, stewed in the northeast. The images and the great love in Zhang Jiajia's eyes are all toxic! If you can't read a chicken soup article, you will be disgusting all kinds of disgusting the audience."
"Golden toilet - it's still stuffed!"
"I forgot to hear who said: Wang Jiawei pointed at Zhang Jiajia's nose on the set and scolded the idiot, do you know whether you know how to make a movie... It seems that he doesn't understand..."
...
Reputation screening...
At the end of the first day, "All Channel Blockage Interference" won a box office of 320 million yuan, with an attendance rate of 70%.
"Ferryman" won a box office of 52.72 million on the first day, with an attendance rate of only 20%. This was the result of the adjustment of the screening halls in the afternoon...
In fact, after seeing the reputation, Zhang Junsheng was relieved!
The audience has now learned to vote with their feet!
Good movies, bad movies, you can tell at a glance...
In the hotel, Zhang Junsheng was interviewed by Yuehua Video: "I estimate that the box office will be around 4 billion, and the overseas results are not easy to say, but from the word of mouth, it is better than "The Wandering Earth", more entertaining, and it is all big scenes!"
"However, North America is about to release Star Wars, which is really not as good as that!"
"... Of course it's difficult to shoot. Hu Ge and his team's scenes on the space station were all real shots. The space suit weighs 30 kilograms. They didn't dare to go to the bathroom when they filmed, so they took it off and put it on, and it took half an hour to pass!"
“…In fact, from “The Wandering Earth” to “The All Channel Blockage Interference”, the biggest feature of all our actors and staff is their sincerity and enthusiasm!”
"We are all making these movies with the mentality of developing domestic genres!"
"I haven't read "The Ferryman", but I've heard that the script is '700,000 words 118 remake'... I think so: paying attention to scripts and stories is indeed a good phenomenon, but any attempt to "overcorrect" and "leniency" will backfire."
Chapter completed!
