The fastest update to the latest chapter of the tear-jerking director!
Nonsensical comedy is actually not unfamiliar to many viewers.
But there really seems to be no market for nonsensical comedies.
Several Hong Kong directors who were once the best at comedy in this area are now criticized for being the same old ones, not innovative, and so on.
I don’t blame the audience for being picky, but the times are developing, and the public’s appreciation of movies has been baptized by countless film and television works. Naturally, it is impossible for many bad movies to be sold like in the early years.
It can be said that most of the time during the Spring Festival, there was no shortage of big-selling comedy films. However, in recent years, the performance of comedy films has been getting worse and worse.
Most of the time, all I can do is run with me.
For this reason, Li Yi's new film "Westward Journey", a nonsensical comedy that can be said to be somewhat "retro", has naturally been mentioned by netizens.
Thanks to the fact that Li Yi has never failed, most people are still looking forward to "Westward Journey".
After all, Li Yi has created enough miracles.
So whether it can regain the glory of nonsensical comedy movies this time, we have to wait until the movie is released.
Li Yi's original plan was to combine the two parts of "Westward Journey" into one, but in that case, the duration would be too long.
Maybe people won’t be too surprised that a war blockbuster like "Changjin Lake" is nearly three hours long, but a nonsensical comedy like "Journey to the West" is indeed not suitable for a feature film.
Therefore, in the end, it was divided into two parts as in the original version.
The filming of "Westward Journey" was officially announced in April.
The main reason is that although this movie was shot in two consecutive parts, for Li Yi, there were very few wasted scenes. In addition, the atmosphere of the crew was surprisingly good, so the filming progress far exceeded expectations.
Compared with the original version, Li Yi's version of "Westward Journey" is obviously more than one level higher in terms of special effects and costumes.
However, when it comes to what kind of box office and reputation this movie can get, Li Yi is really unsure.
After all, this movie could be said to have been a hit on the street before, but it only became popular again later.
Fortunately, "Westward Journey" appeared much later in this world than in other worlds. One of the key reasons why "Westward Journey" hit the streets back then and was even considered a bad movie by many people is that,
The movie was a little too ahead of its time.
In those days, audiences liked straightforward movies that didn’t require using their brains. Instead of making movies that people can understand without using their brains, the selling point was
It must be something else, not the plot.
After the film was completed, post-production, although there were some special effects, was not particularly complicated, so it did not take longer than other films.
All production will be completed around May.
Then the announcement of the movie will be put on the agenda.
"What? Two movies released in succession?" Fang Dongbai and Mu Nanxing exclaimed in unison.
"Yes, "Westward Journey: Moonlight Treasure Box" will be released in July, and "Westward Journey: Cinderella" will be released in August." Li Yi said with a smile.
"Isn't it too close? Besides, if the film is scheduled for the summer holiday..." Fang Dongbai frowned.
"Actually, this can be said to be one story originally, but it was split into two parts, so I hope it can be released consecutively! It will also be beneficial to publicity." Li Yi said.
Of the two parts of "Westward Journey", it can be said that there is a big gap between the first one and the later one.
Because many of the best things are in Cinderella.
But without the previous part, the story would be incomplete.
Furthermore, having two movies released back-to-back is a big gimmick.
"My plan is that when the media and film critics review the special screenings, the two films will be broadcast directly. This will be conducive to word-of-mouth marketing." Li Yi thought for a while and said.
"As for the issue of summer film schedules, I believe that as long as the reputation of "Westward Journey" is established, this will not be a problem."
"But wouldn't this be too cruel?" Lou Jianjun suddenly asked with a smile.
"Yeah, one in July, one in August, plus the National Day movie "Changjin Lake: Shuimen Bridge", it's simply too brutal." Mu Nanxing couldn't help but laugh.
"Changjin Lake: Shuimen Bridge" was decided last year to be released on this year's National Day schedule.
If we add the two movies of "Westward Journey" to be released in consecutive July and August, then in other words, from July to September, and from October to November, Li Yi will almost dominate the list.
Although they have not watched "Westward Journey", they still have confidence. Even if the movie is not as good as expected, at least "Westward Journey" will be enough to sell a good box office even if it relies on Li Yi's earlier success.
Not to mention "Changjin Lake: Shuimen Bridge", the previous "Changjin Lake" has already set a new box office record for Chinese-language movies.
The sequel is even more exciting and there is no reason why the box office will be worse than the previous one.
So, just thinking about it makes me feel cruel!
In fact, when Fanhai announced that the two parts of "Westward Journey" will be released consecutively in July and August respectively, coupled with the National Day schedule of "Changjin Lake: Shuimen Bridge" that was previously scheduled, the whole world suddenly
The film and television industry was in an uproar.
But netizens were happy.
"Damn it, Director Dog is going to directly deny other people a way to survive this time, isn't he?"
“The hottest summer time slot, plus a National Day time slot, and one person can dominate both time slots, no one else can!”
"Other movies were trembling, but Demon King Li really didn't behave like a human being this time!"
"I'm glad to hear it. Is it true? This summer vacation and National Day are all covered, haha!"
And the fact is that at this moment, when other movies that were originally ordered for summer release saw this news, their first reaction was, Director Dog, what a dog!
It can be said that many domestic directors have experienced the fear of being dominated by Demon King Li. Because of this, no one is willing to experience it again.
But this time, Demon King Li went too far.
You think it's okay to occupy one schedule, but in the end, he actually wanted to appear in three movies in a row. How can U8 make a living?
Of course, in fact, it is not that exaggerated to say that it dominates the schedule. After all, "Westward Journey" is a nonsensical comedy, and as long as it is not of the same type in the same schedule, the impact will not be that huge.
The main reason is that the capacity of the summer session is large enough.
But you still have to criticize. After all, the summer schedule is large enough, but Li Yi's movies usually cannot be treated with common sense.
Although comedies, it seems that there has been no particularly outstanding performance in recent years, let alone any dominant works.
But who can guarantee that "Westward Journey" will not be such a movie?
There is only one like this in the whole country!
Many major productions usually do not choose to compete head-on with Li Yi's films. After all, basically no one they have ever encountered has really succeeded in suppressing his films.
