Chapter 718： Brilliant super long MTV

Bobby Weisman sat in the boss chair, holding in his hand the ally's more detailed plan with a rhythm of negative news.

He looked at it quietly. Although there was no expression on his face, he was clearly satisfied with the concentration of energy.

Actors' private lives, the male and female lead actors going to the hotel in the middle of filming, and the embarrassing achievements of epic themes "Kingdom of Heaven" and "Troy", similar steps can easily make the audience subconsciously label "Sparta" as boring.

Although there are still some shortcomings, if we can really follow the whole plan, it will undoubtedly improve the early image of our own film and attract audiences to enter.

In general, all aspects have been considered, but it is not negative enough to make the audience completely resist.

Bobby Weisman looked on and nodded slightly, "Get the momentum as soon as possible."

The ally on the sofa replied, "We're already doing it. But do we have a good chance of winning?"

"If you don't do anything, you won't have a chance," Bobby Weisman paused. "If you fight, you can gain a firm foothold within the schedule, and at worst, you will have to recover your investment."

"Ok."

After reassurance, the allies left.

If a movie is very strong, how much space can be left for other movies during the same period?

This matter has to be done. Bobby was confused.

In the end, it's just to fight for a chance to not be directly crushed by the first mover to play the popularity of "Extraordinary Times".

Everything is for the protection of interests.

......

Premiere ceremonies and screenings are also the usual means before the release of some masterpieces.

In addition to increasing publicity topics, it has also created word-of-mouth among fans and attracted more viewers' attention.

The crowds surrounded on both sides of the theater have dispersed, some have entered the cinema, some have gone home, and some have left with money.

Detroit, a movie theater in downtown.

At this time, Daisy got an advance ticket and sat in the back row to watch "Three Hundred Spartans".

After all, she had been following the behind-the-scenes information for a long time, and the muscle photos of the actors had been read over and over dozens of times.

So interested, it is impossible to miss the opportunity to see the full story on the big screen or to appreciate muscles more intuitively.

To this end, she spent more than 50 dollars to get the tickets for the early stage, and she was able to see it at a glance.

in the lens.

The story is not important, blood, muscles, fighting, and satisfying the visual senses are more important.

As far as the plot is concerned... well, the level of popular science in the Battle of Wenquan Pass is still enough.

In 480 BC, King Xerxes I (Rodrigo Santoro), King of Persia, commanded an army of 500,000 (known as 5 million) and more than 1,000 warships to attack Greece. And all the way south approaching the Demobili Pass. The mighty Xerxes I also sent letters of persuasion to the Greek city-states, hoping that the small states would surrender without a fight. This naturally includes the city of Sparta.

As a result, Xerxes' messenger suffered from the revolt of many Greeks. At this time, in order to defend against the strong enemy, the brave Spartan king Leonidas (Gerard Butler) personally led the Greek coalition forces assembled from various places to take the lead in rushing to the hot springs pass to hold the dangerous pass. place.

In the end, all 300 warriors died in battle, and the Persian army paid a painful price of 20,000 casualties in the first battle of the hot spring...

When that sentence, "For Sparta" sounded, many audience members were moved.

In the exciting background music, Zha Dao composes a battlefield fight with oil painting-like colors.

By the end of the film, Daisy was still immersed in it and felt happy inside.

All she likes to see, though, is just a ton of male hormones.

As for the plot, shots, soundtrack, rhythm and other elements, I simply think it's good. Even let her say what is good, maybe she can't tell.

But, what does that matter.

Watching a movie is meant to be enjoyed, as long as you are satisfied.

To put it simply, when it comes to restoring history, Zach Snyder has no intention at all. In order to please the audience, he can even throw away the basic equipment for fighting.

However, he also used the beauty of his professional background in painting, the thick ink, the **** violence, and brought unprecedented visual impact to the audience.

In his hands, fighting became an art.

One word summary: cool.

Subsequent film reviews are basically similar.

"...The whole film is like a super-long MTV with **** underwear as the core. The theme of the underwear is "Ancient Greece", but the music is passionate and bloody; I want people to see every powerful muscle in their body." - San Francisco Herald

"...Zach Snyder shot a movie depicting the Battle of Hot Springs with dazzling color saturation and strong slow motion, and I can only say that the color picture is really good if you ignore the plot." - " Entertainment Film Review

"Inexplicable costumes, inexplicable fights, inexplicable child's play, the actors in it can cooperate with such a bad movie, it is the biggest mistake in my career. Boredom." - "Film Salon"

......

Movies like "300" are destined to be ridiculed by the crowd, especially the critics who "defend the dignity of film art", which is inevitable; , the audience who just poured out of the theater, with a red tide full of excitement, frantically ran to IMDB to give it a full score.

But these two seemingly completely different attitudes are actually the same thing at heart - the audience is destined to be dominated by pleasure, which is undoubtedly and deserved; it is indeed necessary for experts to be in a variety of collective fanaticism. Keep your professional calm in front of you, and once you are calm, the plot and narrative of "300" really won't work.

From the perspective of movie appreciation, if you don't go to the cinema, the audio-visual pleasure that "300" can bring will be greatly reduced. Its so-called artistic value lies in its innovative experiment in film aesthetics, because it is a very typical visual film, as is the once amazing "Sin City".

Apart from the bold exploration of the film's image, which is commendable - although this advantage covers many of the film's shortcomings: empty themes, shallow tone, deviated positions, **** scenes, the story and characters are portrayed without thinking... But the audience pays for it Tickets, sometimes cool enough.

This is a face-seeing world, and visual enjoyment is far more rewarding than spiritual enjoyment.

In fact, whether director Zack Snyder or Lehman decides to invest and invest large-scale resources, there are certain expectations and certain markets can be expected.

As a director, doesn't Zach Snyder know what "300" has become in his hands?

He is very clear, and it is precisely because he is clear that he places more emphasis on the structure of the picture and ignores others.

Different focus leads to different results.

If you want him to tell stories well, people still don't do it. Besides, he is not a person who likes to tell stories honestly.

It's just that he didn't expect to set off a hurricane of public opinion.

Lehmann didn't expect either.

Bobby Weisman was so happy to see the adverse impact on "300" getting bigger and bigger.

He felt that he was able to form such a momentum, and he had a part in it, and he was accumulating energy in advance.

But he forgot that audiences and critics have different positions.

Critics will criticize films that don't even tell a good story, that's right, that's their job, their professional attitude.

But just like these people love well-cooked food, but also accept fast food.

Watching "300" is like eating a super cool and spicy hot pot with numb scalp. The appetite is very satisfied, even if it is completely digested overnight If you have a bad stomach, you have to scold two sentences. But at the time, they must have been cool, which is the desirability and boredom of most commercial movies, they are just consumer goods, so enjoyable to watch, you don't want to linger after watching them.

"300" really has nothing to remember.

What do you remember?

Naked man? A battlefield full of loopholes? Brain flooding fight? No city, no thinking, and even insults to IQ.

If ancient wars were fought like this, there would be no need to spend time researching.

Therefore, the scolding was loud, but the screening of "300" was not affected much, and even because of the wave of discussion - criticism also represented popularity, it was able to get more box office.

In the early stage, "300" only had 4.87 million, which was very mediocre.

However, on the first day of its release, it received 29.82 million yuan, making it the champion of the box-office chart. Among the past blockbusters, such a first-day performance can be regarded as dazzling.

After all, adding the two together is already $34.69 million.
