I'm a movie star on earth

Chapter 497 Brain Burning, Can't Understand
From the scene where the plane bombed the building, the director didn't intend to let the audience's brains rest for a while, and started to be energetic throughout the whole process.The positive and negative fights in the red and blue channels, the chase scene on the highway, especially the moment when the fire truck came out, accompanied by intense electronic music, the entire theater exploded.

For the first time, the protagonist played by Lee Hyuk started through the reverse door, and the reverse world was presented to the audience for the first time. The disappearing small pool, the bird flying in reverse, and the pedestrian in reverse, everything broke the audience's conventional cognition.

From here, the plot is more brain-intensive and exciting. After Nolan listened to Lee Hyuk's suggestion, although the plot is still very brain-intensive, the intense action scenes firmly attract the audience.So even if the audience is a little confused watching the plot, but watching Li Hyuk acting handsome on the screen is enough, and there are many big scenes, it is worth the fare.

Jiang Lei followed the plot and suddenly discovered that it was a big loop plot. The protagonist and Neil took Kate through the reversal door again to the warehouse at Oslo Airport, and then fought with themselves.

Although it is the same fight scene, Jiang Lei, who has done a little research on film lenses, found that the first scene is a fight scene with the protagonist without a mask as the main perspective, and the second one is with the protagonist with a mask as the main perspective. play.This kind of fight scene cannot be filmed backwards, which means that "Creed" was filmed twice.

Jiang Lei guessed right, this forward and reverse fight scene was indeed filmed twice, and Li He was tortured enough at that time.

Afterwards, the plot came to the climax of the whole play, the red and blue time pincer offensive battle, the chaotic battlefield of various colors dazzled the audience, the battlefield progressed to the middle, a building was blown up by both the red and blue sides at the same time, bringing an unparalleled experience to the audience. visual experience.

The final plot made the hunk cry even more. Neil is the person sent by the protagonist from the future to help the protagonist complete the task, and Neil blocked the bullet for the protagonist in the exploded underground cave, opened the iron gate, and died.

"What will happen if you don't go back?"

"It happened, it happened, it's not an excuse for us to run away."

"You haven't told me who recruited you?"

"Haven't you figured it out yet? It's you, not when you think it is, but in your future and my past, me many years ago and you many years later."

"You've known me for many years?"

"To me, that's the best end to our friendship."

"It's just the beginning for me..."

"Starting with something evil, you'll love it, I promise, the whole operation is a time pincer."

"who?"

"Your, you are only halfway there, my starting point is waiting for you, brother."

Watching Neil board the fatal plane, the protagonist had tears in his eyes, but he didn't try to stop it forcefully.As Neil said, what happens is what happens.

Jiang Lei wiped away his tears. Although there were still some parts of the plot that he didn't understand, it was worthwhile for him to understand this brotherhood.The female fans of Li Hyuk in the theater also wiped their tears. Although most of the female fans did not understand what the film was about, it was worth it just to see Li Hyuk's handsome face.

After walking out of the movie theater, Jiang Lei returned home. Because of the epidemic, the school did not start at this time, so he has been staying at home since the Chinese New Year.

After watching "Creed", Jiang Lei was filled with emotions, and couldn't help but posted a circle of friends with a still photo of "Creed".

"I just came out of the cinema and went to watch the latest sci-fi action movie "Creed" starring Li Hyuk. This movie is my favorite director Nolan's new work. As always, it maintains a high standard and is also a leader among original sci-fi movies. , recommend everyone to go to the cinema to watch this movie.”

Just after posting on the circle of friends, several classmates and friends left messages below. Some said that this movie is a masterpiece, some said it was a relatively mediocre movie, and some said it was a bad movie. Watch it not go down.

Jiang Lei was not surprised, because this movie was indeed very difficult to understand during the viewing process. He still had a lot of things he didn't understand after watching the movie. He planned to watch it again tomorrow. It is expected that the reputation of this movie will be polarized. .

Jiang Lei's prediction was correct. After the film's premiere, Douban ratings were lifted immediately, with an initial rating of 8.6, and most of them were five-star viewers, a few one-star viewers, and almost four-star, three-star and two-star viewers. No.

The movie reviews below are also polarized. Except for Li Hyuk's fans who are brainless, there are almost [-] to [-] positive and negative reviews.Except for mindless bragging, it's almost [-]-[-].

But for female audiences, even if they don't understand the plot, it's enough to just look at the looks of Li Hyuk and Robert Pattinson, so there are still many film critics who praise their looks.Male viewers are more scientifically minded and pay more attention to the plot. Some big guys who think they understand have already started to analyze the plot.

The UP owners of the film and television area on station B plan to watch the film a few more times, and then release a plot analysis video.Including the hardcore Li Chui Maituo, after a preview video of "Creed", he watched "Creed" three times on the day of the premiere, but still didn't understand it.

She also worked hard to analyze the future. At the cost of two meals, she invited her good friend who is studying for a master's degree in physics to watch a movie, and then analyzed the video for herself.

This big guy was very disdainful at first, "Creed", and going back in time are all nonsense, but after watching the movie once, he was completely obsessed, and he dragged Mai Tuo to watch it three or four times.

According to the combined plot, he even wrote a [-]-word analysis copy. After reading the copy, Mai Tuo was dumbfounded. She didn't expect the movie to have so many details, and she didn't understand it at all before.

In fact, the film has tried its best to make the audience understandable, but the complicated plot is still more difficult to understand than "Inception".Because "Creed" is not a traditional three-stage structure, but an unusual giant loop structure.

Polarization of word-of-mouth is normal. When the enthusiasm subsides and returns to rationality, it is estimated that the score will remain around 8.0, which can be regarded as an excellent commercial film.

The investment of "Creed" is [-] million US dollars. Although word of mouth is important, the box office is even more important.At Nolan's home in Los Angeles, China's latest box office data came over. Nolan was eating breakfast, and Emma Thomas handed over the latest box office report.

Nolan glanced at it, nodded and said, "It's not bad. The box office was 2.33 million on the first day, which is considered a high box office at this time."

The box office of 2.33 million RMB is more than 3000 million when converted into US dollars. This is still the box office on the first day. If this is the case, the box office in China may exceed [-] million US dollars in the first weekend. Adding the box office in other regions of the world, [-] million in the first weekend is not a problem.

In the next screening cycle, if the film earns more than [-] million US dollars, the box office will return to its original cost.Thinking of this, Nolan felt relieved.To be honest, in the production of this movie, he was actually a bit willful and made the movie according to his own ideas, but he overestimated the audience and himself.

Nolan did not shoot the film so that the audience could understand it. He thought that the audience could understand it, but in fact, many audiences would not understand it unless they watched it three or four times.

If the production cost of the film is 2000 million US dollars, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand it, but the production cost of the film is [-] million US dollars, which is considered a high-investment film among commercial blockbusters. If you can’t recover the cost , It was also a big blow to Nolan.

Nolan thought of Lee Hyuk's suggestion, and Lee Hyuk and Nolan repeatedly suggested that the focus of commercial films should be to take care of the audience's feelings.Nolan finally listened to Li Hyuk's suggestion, and tried to keep the plot as simple as possible during post-editing and production, and added a lot of slow motion to make it easier for the audience to spot the details.

For example, in the scene where three cars run side by side on the highway, Nolan did a slow-motion processing here. The protagonist threw the box on the silver car in the middle and flicked it to Sator, but the big baby in the box was in his hand.

If this is a normal shot, it is impossible for the audience to notice this detail, but through slow motion, the audience can notice this detail.This is one of the changes in the film, and there are many others. It is precisely because of the decrease in the difficulty of understanding that the film has a high score of 8.6 points on Douban from the very beginning.
