Made in Hollywood

As well-known filmmakers in this country, Jiang Xiaojun and Ge Guangtou were recognized by sharp-eyed reporters before they left the studio. A female reporter quickly stopped them. ︾,

"Two, just watched "Transformers"..."

Obviously, this female reporter knew Jiang Xiaojun and Ge Guangtou, and she asked directly, "Can you talk about your views on this movie?"

"The momentum of the movie is very magnificent." Ge Guangtou thought for a moment, and then said, "Its visual effects are too good, and the technology used is also groundbreaking. These are unmatched by domestic movies... Well, there is also Ling. The production cost is staggering."

"What do you think?" The reporter turned to Jiang Xiaojun.

Although he has been banned from directing films by Scissors for many years, Jiang Xiaojun is still a director. From a director’s point of view, he said, "Duke Rosenberg used all the visual tools he has at his disposal to lead us in the movies like a master of strategy. People who appreciate the magnificent scenes and spectacular vision. Although the story of this film is too simple, its technical effects are simply impeccable."

The reporter's eyes were not only on celebrities, but also ordinary fans.

Ms. Lu, who works at China Merchants Bank, told reporters that she didn’t like watching movies like this, especially a bunch of movies played by machines, but now she changed her mind, “I think it’s very shocking, mainly because of special effects. I was stunned by a lot of thoughts. The movie can be made like this, and visually such a movie cannot be faulty."

Mr. Zhang, who works in an advertising company, said, “Now domestic films and imported blockbusters are expensive, I think it’s worth spending money to watch such films.”

This is also the view of many fans.

After leaving the studio, Wang Ziming quickly returned home, although it was late, but he did not have any sleepiness. His head was full of images of Autobots and Decepticons colliding with each other. Those real shots seemed to happen in front of him, which made him wonder if there would be Transformers in the world he lived in.

The phone's ringtone suddenly rang, and Wang Ziming glanced at the number after receiving it. It was a friend of his who called. The other party is an avid Transformers fan, but did not go to see the film, and did not have much good impression of Duke Rosenberg's film, the reason is simple, the film changed too much Transformers look.

"How about the movie?" A familiar voice came from the earpiece, "It's disappointing, right?"

"No, definitely not disappointing."

Holding the phone, Wang Ziming walked a few steps back and forth in the room, and said in a decisive tone. "The special effects of "Transformers" are too good. If this movie is on the top of gi special effects, the special effects of "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" and "Spider-Man 3" that we have seen together only draw circles on the side steps For the circle, this is basically a two-level effect. "Transformers" makes me hard to believe that these big guys are made with computers, and they seem to exist in reality."

"This... is this true? You didn't lie to me?"

The voice in the receiver hesitated, "He changed the shape of the Transformers, didn't you also feel dissatisfied?"

"Stop talking about the squares in those cartoons. Although this is our childhood memory, I really can’t imagine the effect of putting those squares in this movie. Don’t see a few stills. Just yell these broken bronze iron elephant skeletons and the like, because you can feel the shock of these'broken bronze iron' on the screen, and I can guarantee that you will accept the so-called broken bronze iron in the film."

As if he didn’t want his friends to miss such a wonderful movie, Wang Ziming continued, “This movie is not meant to tell us about life or to pretend to be connotations. This movie has only two purposes. First, make money in your pocket, and second , Makes you feel cool after spending money. I just came out of the theater and saw most of the audience who walked into the movie theater. They all felt cool, and they were not as addictive as I was. I plan to see it again tomorrow ."

He asked, "Li Ping, are you going?"

"I……"

The person named Li Ping still hesitated, "Let me read the online comments first."

Hanging up the phone, Li Ping turned on the computer and went to the professional movie website Mtime.com. In the most conspicuous position of the homepage, Optimus Prime’s huge portrait was extremely eye-catching. After he clicked on the link, he didn’t watch it. Others, but drag the web page to the bottom, here is the relevant comment column.

More than a thousand fans watched the premiere, and here are some comments.

"It's over, I'm irrational again."

"The classic "Transformers", even if it premieres a bunch of posters, fans like me will be emotionally shocked. I was pretending to be calm, but I lost my mind when the film opened."

"The film can only be described as stunningly gorgeous. When the mechanical sounds of the deformation are heard one after another, the entire theater is choked..."

"Just one thing, I love Duke Rosenberg's "Transformers."

Seeing this, Li Ping felt that he had returned to the era when everyone was vying to be Megatron and was called the Bumblebee the most. At that time, the Decepticons were much more popular than the Autobots, and now I want to come to the Autobots every time. Both were not so open and upright. It was all the help of the director and the screenwriter. Many of my peers at that time said in Megatron's tone that the enemy had been discovered and they were ready to launch!

He unconsciously took the phone, dialed the number just now, and after the other side was connected, he said directly, "Ziming, we will go together tomorrow!"

"It depends on the ima3d version. I will book the tickets first."

After hanging up the phone, Wang Ziming checked the internet and dialed the number of one of the only three ima theaters in Shanghai, but he was disappointed. The ima3d version of Transformers will not have a ticket tomorrow!

He dialed the number of two other cinemas with ima cinemas, and he answered without a ticket when he waited.

There is no way, Wang Ziming can only take the second place and choose the 3d version. Fortunately, the 3d tickets are a bit tight, but they can always be bought in line.

"I called to book tickets and found out that the ima version of the tickets were all gone. I finally got the 3d version of tickets. It's tomorrow's midnight show."

He rather helplessly called to inform his friends.

As an emotional bond connecting a generation born in the 70s and 80s, the status of "Transformers" is particularly prominent. Therefore, even in China, there are still Transformers fan clubs, Transformers annual meetings, and online fan exchange activities. These are enough to provide the most basic audience for the "Transformers" live-action movie.

As time turned to midnight, more and more "Transformers" screenings began, more and more movie fans saw this commercial masterpiece, and the Internet was full of ordinary movie fans' opinions.

On the Tianya forum, the id is Optimus Prime’s person who left a message, "It is an understatement to say that this film will be on fire. "Transformers" is incredible!"

""The Transformers are back from watching the movie. The special effects are absolutely top-notch. The film feels a bit longer to me," an anonymous netizen commented on Time.com, "but I like it very much!"

"Ok, comment on "Transformers"?...Wow, wow! Unbelievable... awesome!" This is what someone said to a friend on QQ.

Similar comments can be seen everywhere on the Internet.

"I was totally shocked by "Transformers"! For more than 110 minutes, I think I was back in my childhood. Thank you, Duke Rosenberg! Also, the 3D effect is absolutely breakthrough, shocking!"

"This is a spectacular experience, never seen before!"

"It's so cool! "Transformers" is incomparable, shocking, and invincible!"

"Every second is filled with so many action scenes. After watching the movie, you may be tempted to go out of the theater and add another 100 yuan to the box office."

This is not the relatively mature film market in North America. Both movie fans and the industry chain are in the initial stage of rapid development. Duke will not ignore the media’s guidance of public opinion and the influence on the audience. The Internet naval forces are in this film. Huge regional networks are also extremely popular.

Then there are the professional film critics in this market. They are all in their infancy. The price is far from the outrageous in North America. It only costs a few hundred dollars in exchange for these people's cheers.

To put it bluntly, there is no difference in this industry on both sides of the ocean.

However, there will be some people who do not buy "Transformers", some will like this type of film, and some will not like this type of film.

"Transformers" is not very popular on China's famous petty bourgeoisie website Douban.

Although Douban movies are full of "wonderful, shocking and successful" praises, they have also encountered some "bad reviews."

Someone bluntly suggested boycotting the film, "This noisy, crude movie will make you feel more painful than happy."

Some people also questioned that the film was a commercial advertisement. It was "a disgusting and powerfully indoctrinating commercial act carried out to promote cars, toys, and war. It lied about itself as a film. This is not a movie, it is sour." Junk drink, I suggest you don’t let your kids touch it."

There is no doubt that Duke's production style is not very popular with mainstream users of this website.

Someone left a message like this, "From the moment Duke Rosenberg, who would only explode, became the director of this film, "Transformers" lost the last opportunity to become a slightly decent film. He had no plans. , No style, no storytelling, no knowing how to control the rhythm. He only knows how to stack special effects, only knows how to pursue the biggest and the loudest, whether the stars in his hand are Nicholas Keys, Keanu Reeves, or those who change The robot giants in the car, he just used them endlessly, shaking and shaking them together with the camera."

However, this is destined to be the opinion of the minority. No matter what they say, it cannot change the fact that the audience lined up in front of the theater to buy tickets for "Transformers", and the major theaters are also full of confidence in the box office. (To be continued...)
