Chapter 495 The polarized scolding battle of 'Journey to the West' (close to a five-thousand-word ch
The music is beautiful.
The scenery is also very beautiful.
Movie fans gradually saw patches of wind and sand blowing, and in the wind and sand, a girl wearing a bamboo hat came closer and closer.
Wang Hao stared at this girl.
Qin Ya wearing a bamboo hat is very mysterious, while Qin Ya taking off the bamboo hat is very beautiful and charming. Perhaps it is because of her appearance, but Wang Hao actually feels that Qin Ya does not look like a freshly graduated college student.
Then, he subconsciously looked in the direction of Qin Ya, but all he saw was his sister Wang Jinxue.
He was suddenly speechless.
………………………………
Liu Wanqing sat silently in the last row, watching the movie alone.
The movie was originally accompanied by someone. Liu Wanqing's aunt and external person in charge, Li Fang, was originally accompanying her.
However, a few minutes before the movie was about to be released, Li Fang answered a phone call and had to go out temporarily because of something else.
Therefore, Liu Wanqing could only watch "Westward Journey" alone.
Liu Wanqing likes Lu Yuan's "The Legend of Wukong". She likes the monkey in Lu Yuan's works who would rather die than surrender. She also likes to see Tang Sanzang who harbors great wisdom.
The characters in "The Legend of Wukong" are completely alive to her, especially the few sentences about Sun Wukong that touched her heart.
She also longs to one day be like Sun Wukong who would rather die than lose.
Therefore, she is naturally looking forward to "Westward Journey" very much. She feels that "Westward Journey" may be such a story, a story of struggle.
but……
The sound at the beginning of the movie gave Liu Wanqing a very bad premonition. She felt that the overall tone of the movie might be gray and that it might bring about the beginning of tragedy for her.
The beginning of the battle between Sun Wukong and Guanyin made Liu Wanqing's premonition stronger and stronger.
Maybe, this is really a gray movie, maybe the next plot is the story of how Sun Wukong redeems his sins five hundred years later.
However, after the plot officially started, Liu Wanqing was stunned.
This "Westward Journey" not only does not start in gray, but also begins with scenes of comedy that are both ridiculous and illogical...
Liu Wanqing found that she really couldn't adapt to this kind of plot for a while.
Is this really a comedy?
However, even if it is a comedy, you still have to rely on logic...
Why do I watch this comedy without any logic at all?
Liu Wanqing was stunned for a moment. As the plot gradually unfolded and Bai Jingjing appeared, Liu Wanqing became even more confused.
This plot is getting more and more ridiculous. It seems that Sun Wukong and Bone Demon are in love...
etc!
"Westward Journey" is completely unlike the one in "The Legend of Wukong", and Sun Wukong is not at all like the Sun Wukong in "The Legend of Wukong"...
These are completely two concepts.
One is unwilling to admit defeat and will never give up, while the other is dissolute, frivolous, and even has a hint of a scumbag.
For some reason, Liu Wanqing felt a huge sense of disparity in his heart. This sense of disparity made him feel very disappointed.
"What the hell..."
"What's going on?"
"This is the plot of "Journey to the West"
"This is not even the plot of "The Legend of Wukong", are you kidding? Wasn't Sun Wukong suppressed by Tathagata Buddha? Why is he now suppressed by Guanyin?"
"this……"
In the cinema, some people were watching the movie seriously and burst into laughter from time to time, while other people were cursing, looking disappointed and speechless. Even a few extreme people stood up without saying a word.
I left the cinema cursing.
Liu Wanqing did not leave.
She continued watching the movie.
………………………………
"Haha, it's okay that "The Legend of Wukong" is bad. I didn't expect that the movie "Westward Journey" you made was even worse. It turns out that this is "Westward Journey". It has no connotation, empty logic, and all kinds of vulgar jokes from the beginning.
, even this kind of low-level taste like stepping on fire has come out, haha, I watch this movie, it will become the worst movie this year!"
"I have always felt that "The Legend of Wukong" is ruining the classics. However, although "The Legend of Wukong" is ruining the classics, "The Legend of Wukong" must be full of emotions after all. It can barely be regarded as a book. But what is the "Westward Journey" you filmed?
Tell me what you mean by "Journey to the West"
"I don't even want to call him rubbish now. I think Lu Yuan is simply a scum!"
"Haha, talented. Maybe he is indeed talented in other aspects, but this movie made me see a lot of jokes. Yes, it is a joke!"
"I have a hunch that after this movie ends, Lu Yuan may really become the biggest joke of this century!"
"Lu Yuan...hehe..."
Liu Zhenqing, a well-known traditional writer, poet, and critic, sat in the cinema and watched the beginning of the movie. After watching it, he immediately posted a long list of posts on Weibo, all of which were filled with disappointment and anger about the movie.
There are so many criticisms.
There is no so-called nonsensical comedy in China in this world.
The Chinese comedies in this world are all the type that have a hint of Beijing flavor, or are more action comedies...
After Liu Zhenqing saw the so-called beginning of "Journey to the West", he simply felt that "Journey to the West" insulted the classics...
This time, after Liu Zhenqing issued a Weibo criticism, he was not denied by all walks of life like the previous "The Legend of Wukong", and was labeled as a suppressor of young people by all walks of life.
This time, countless comments on his Weibo were filled with support, and countless comments were followed by criticism.
After seeing these comments, Liu Zhenqing made a joke and continued to stare at the plot of the movie. He continued to criticize the movie and even rated it as one of the most rubbish jokes this year...
…………………………
"This doesn't seem to be at his level."
"How could he make up such a plot?"
"Isn't that right... Xiao Lu doesn't seem like someone who likes to play around so much..."
Chen Guanxiong frowned deeply after quietly watching a series of messy and nonsensical comedies in the plot.
He felt that after the movie reached the middle, it was filled with scenes of huge embarrassment, and he couldn't find anything nutritious...
He was also disappointed. After being disappointed, he began to be confused. He didn't know what happened to Lu Yuan.
Why on earth would you write such a seemingly confusing script with no plot at all?
certainly……
The interludes in this movie are very good, very ethereal, accompanying the yellow sand, and exuding an indescribable flavor.
Such an episode coupled with this kind of plot...
Simply...
Chen Guanxiong himself felt like he was ruining a classic.
"Grandpa, I think this movie is quite good, at least it's humorous..."
"On the contrary, I think this is an alternative way of expressing satire in comedies. Comedies, why do they have to be logical?"
"..."
The granddaughter Chen Xi next to her shook her head. On the contrary, she read it with great interest and did not care about some loopholes and details in the script.
………………………………
"What's going on!"
“It’s all about this stuff”
"What does this make us think..."
"I won't watch! I'm leaving... I came here to watch Lu Yuan's movie with great interest, but I didn't expect it to be like this... I'm sorry, I really can't accept it..."
"Let's go together, let's go together..."
"Yes! Together!"
"..."
When "Westward Journey" was halfway through, several middle-aged people in the cinema couldn't bear the nonsensical plot and exaggerated expressions. They shook their heads, feeling disappointed and a little bit indignant at the same time.
They really like "The Legend of Wukong", they especially like the characters in "The Legend of Wukong", and even every bit of the plot.
But……
The more I like "The Legend of Wukong", the more disappointed I am with "Westward Journey".
They even remembered Liu Zhenqing's comment that ruined the classics...
They suddenly felt that these comments made sense!
"If you don't look at it, get out. Don't bother us here!"
"Yes, the movie is quite good. Go away. Ergouzi lacks your support. Ergouzi still has people to support him..."
"What's so ugly? I've been enjoying myself till now. You middle-aged people are completely out of date!"
"Yeah...you don't understand at all..."
"This is a comedy. Don't you know what a comedy means? Go away..."
"right!"
In the cinema...
Some older people clamored to leave, but some young people stood up and started arguing with the older people.
Young people don't think this movie is poorly made. Instead, they think this movie is very interesting. The smiling faces come one after another and they can't stop at all...
They don't even understand why these middle-aged people are scolding like this!
Is this movie bad?
What's wrong?
Is Lu Yuan’s acting skills poor or there are no jokes in it?
…………………………
"Westward Journey" is controversial.
It seems that this movie has been full of controversies since the beginning of the script.
The older generation, or the older middle-aged people, cannot accept this kind of joke baggage, and think it is rubbish and a bad movie, but the younger generation think this movie is very interesting and very good to watch...
This day...
Similar situations occur everywhere in Chinese cinemas.
The young people and the older generation had different opinions, and sometimes they even started quarreling on the spot.
Fortunately, a security guard noticed that the situation was not good and stopped it in time. After pulling out the quarrelsome people, things calmed down a bit.
but……
After leaving the cinema halfway through the movie, these young people and older people also had differences of opinion. They also launched a series of curses around whether the movie was a war...
Of course, there are slightly fewer scolding wars in reality, but on the Internet, scolding wars have set off a new wave of smoke!
The movie "Westward Journey" has not even seen half of the plot, and even the second part of "Moonlight Box" has not yet been revealed, and the popularity on the Internet has completely exploded.
"This movie will be the biggest waterloo in Lu Yuan's film career. I think Lu Yuan needs to reflect on the plot and take the movie seriously. Otherwise, Lu Yuan will really disappear like a flash in the pan.
In the entertainment industry! Disappointed, really disappointed!"
"What are you disappointed about? Do you know what comedy is? Rubbish. You only stick to those things from the past and don't understand Lu Yuan's performance ability in movies! What's wrong with nonsense and nonsense? Why does a movie have to have logic and exist?
If you don’t understand the meaning, don’t be blind!”
"Go away!"
"What do you mean you are still trying to clean up "Westward Journey"? How can you clean it up!"
"Haha, we don't mean anything, we just think you... don't understand, you are behind the times, you can't accept new things, you... are going to be eliminated!"
"What, what did you say!"
"Not convinced"
"Haha, why are you dissatisfied?"
“Go to Weibo!”
"Okay! Just log on Weibo!"
“Come and post it!”
"Okay! I'm still afraid of you."
The movie was just halfway through, and when "Moonlight Box" was coming to an end, a series of curses about "Westward Journey" instantly spread across the Internet like gunpowder smoke!
In just twenty minutes, the popularity of "Westward Journey" seemed to be crazy, directly surpassing the popularity of "Dream Traveler"!
As long as you log on to the Internet and look at it, everything is filled with curses...
Tieba, Tomato, Weibo, headlines of major portals...
Even the official Weibo account of Zhou Shuai's "Chaoyang Entertainment News" was full of curses...
After Zhou Shuai saw that his Weibo popularity suddenly exploded again, he immediately posted the details of the scolding war on Weibo without saying a word, and also published his views on "Westward Journey"...
Of course, he did not praise his boss's movie blindly, but analyzed the ideological gap between the two age groups from an objective perspective. At the same time, he also said a little bit that "Westward Journey" is really not a bad movie.
after all……
The movie is nearly three hours long!
I haven’t even put half of this yet!
It's pointless to start a fight like this, right?
…………………………
"Ah sneeze..."
"Ah sneeze..."
"Who is scolding me again?"
"Mr. Lu..."
"What's wrong"
"You really guessed it right this time. There are countless people scolding you online..."
"I've been keeping such a low profile these days, why do people still scold me..."
"Because of "Westward Journey"."
"Forehead……"
Lu Yuan wiped his nose with a hanging needle. When he saw a series of countless scoldings on the Internet, he suddenly felt strange.
"The movie is not even halfway through yet"
"yes……"
"Half... why did you... start cursing?"
"Mr. Lu, many people in the literary world have also come to an end. The popularity this movie has ignited seems crazy!"
"The literary world has also come, what's going on with them?"
"Both cases have mixed reviews, but overall there are more scolds. After all, Liu Zhenqing's Weibo has been recognized by many people..."
"Uh..." Lu Yuan was speechless.
This plot development is too nonsense.
This is all scolding
It doesn't make sense.
Why don't you just watch the movie before you criticize it?
It’s not like I separated the movie into two parts like the original world...
this……
Lu Yuan felt aggrieved.
………………………………
It stands to reason that Shen Lianjie should be very happy that the reputation of "Westward Journey" has become polarized.
after all……
His "Dream Traveler" has received rave reviews for the time being!
If it were a year ago, he would definitely have joined in the scolding war, and he would have been extremely excited.
But……
The scolding on the Internet did not make Zhou Shuai feel better.
Even he didn't have any inflated mentality and instead stared at the headlines of major media.
You said Lu Yuan was scolded
Has Lu Yuan been scolded few times?
And this time, it’s not like my “Capital” was criticized uniformly, but there were good reviews and bad reviews!
This can easily create a weird publicity effect!
He clicked on the entertainment circle and the popularity index in the movie circle...
Then……
He noticed the popularity and craziness of this movie, and it has completely left "Dream Traveler" behind countless streets.
"Dream Traveler" has no other reviews except good reviews...
At this time, Shen Lianjie became even more panicked.
If this continues, will December completely become the month of "Westward Journey"?
Do you want to... again?
Shen Lianjie was so nervous that his heart began to beat faster again while standing in the screening room.
He felt that he really needed to see a psychiatrist.
……………………
"Support Dream Travelers and science fiction films! I believe my "City Fortress" will also be well received by everyone!"
""Westward Journey"... Well, Director Lu, you failed this time, but I believe you will succeed next time, Director Lu!"
"Director Lu, if there is a movie next time, please invite me..."
"I would love to take part in the role."
After seeing the scolding, Han Lu also nodded, forwarded the most scolding Weibo, posted a comment of his own, and called Lu Yuan.
After he finished, he nodded and laughed.
Although the filming of "City Fortress" is about to begin, publicity cannot be left behind.
……………………
A series of curses and controversies here...
But the second half of "Westward Journey" finally kicked off in the cinema...
only……
The seats in the cinema are no longer as full as before.
In a movie theater with more than a hundred people, more than ten seats were vacant...
There are also a few middle-aged viewers who are staring at the movie, but actually some want to leave...
