Disaster Artist

January, cold winter.

In the midst of ice and snow, it is obvious that going out to watch movies is not the best way of entertainment every day. In addition, the awards season works have entered the theaters during this period. For ordinary audiences, the attractiveness of movie theaters has further declined. Obviously, winter is even better. choice of recreational activities.

For various reasons, the winter season has become a dry season for the box office market throughout the year.

However, nothing is absolute.

Strictly speaking, the lowest point of the box office market should be autumn:

The hustle and bustle of the awards season has not yet kicked off, the frenzied bombardment of the summer season has hollowed out the enthusiasm of the market, the approaching of the school season has caused young people to temporarily have no time to go to the theater... and so on.

The miserable and miserable autumn season is indeed a black hole. It seems that it is difficult for any work to come here, and it is full of gray.

It is precisely because of this that the "Mars Mission" became a dark horse in the fall of this year, which easily ignited the enthusiasm for discussion.

Sight, back to winter gear.

Although the winter season is indeed not the audience's favorite time, it is undeniable that the general public is more or less concerned about the awards season.

In the overwhelming publicity of the awards season, the audience will occasionally become interested in some works, and are willing to walk into the theater to see what the so-called award-winning works are. Be one of the options for family viewers to pass the time.

Thanks to this, the depression in winter is not too tragic, at least there is still the bottom of autumn.

In January of this year, too.

The momentum of "Jedi Knight" sweeping the box office has continued from the end of the year to the new year, and even people who have no interest in movies have heard the news; however, in the heat of discussion topics, "Jedi Knight" is difficult to compare with awards season works. Comparable, even the fanatical fans gradually calmed down——

After all, the movie has been released for more than a month, and no matter how excited or frenzied it is, it has all been vented.

Among the awards season works, "Love" stood out.

In the early stage, it was because of Lu Qian and Zhang Benqing's off-site topics, from the paparazzi incident to "Tomson has something to say", which really earned a lot of attention.

What followed was a bloody, explosive drama, and even the film critics went head-to-head.

It was followed by the frenzy that detonated the box office market, which not only continued Lu Qian's invincible myth, but also overwhelmed the "Jedi Knight".

One step, another step.

"Love" did set off a whirlwind at the end of the year, and it was indistinguishable from the "Reviver" who was rich and powerful--

The latter not only has the golden partners of Itu and Leo, but also the lion film industry has ambitiously launched comprehensive publicity and public relations, and it is definitely the highlight of this year's awards season. garnered a lot of attention for the film.

Then.

"Love" has opened up the situation because of its own discussion value, and has once again entered the discussion center of social networks. This is already the second wave in the short term.

The first wave focused on marriage. "Love" undoubtedly dissects marriage, and "lie and betrayal" became the absolute theme, which is also known as the cruel story of marriage.

The second wave focuses on love. The "lover" looks back on love based on marriage, and cuts off the connection between the two in an indifferent and cruel manner, showing the essence of love and marriage respectively, which once again triggers the controversy of mountains and tsunamis, and even It spread even more violently and widely than the first wave:

Some people support marriage, some people support love, some people scold Lu Qian for being too dark and too pessimistic, and some people complain about Lu Qian's extreme smearing of romance.

At the same time, more people came forward and said that what Lu Qian presented was real, and real life may not be so bloody, but it is more ugly and dirty.

Agree, oppose; Tucao, support; refute, analyze.

All kinds, all kinds, it can be clearly seen that the entire social network is in-depth discussion, and the "lover" is like a mirror, reflecting all beings.

Later, in an issue of "Tomson has something to say", even if Lu Qian was not a guest, Tomson also mentioned the movie "Love" when chatting.

"...Lu Qian is a smart person, he knows how to show the pity of the hateful people, and at the same time show the hate of the poor people, when we started to argue, he also succeeded, because he proved that the complexity of human nature.”

"So, Lu Qian's biggest hobby is to create a Colosseum, and then throw us in, and he will stand by and enjoy it. That's why he is so popular on our show. Everyone loves the Colosseum."

The talk show is still a talk show, and Tomson's easy-to-follow jokes maintained the joy of the recording scene.

However, as Tomson said, the best part of "Love" is that it gives Ai Qing and Wang Si clear character arcs and character edges and corners.

The whole context of beginnings and endings runs through it, quietly letting the audience into it. In a story that is not absolutely black and white, no one can convince anyone, but everyone will express their opinions according to their own positions and viewpoints. The debate can't stop.

It is precisely because of this that in the desolation of winter, the discussion of "lover" is far ahead——

Not just a little bit ahead.

Don't say "Resurrection", even the "Jedi Knights" who are creating historical records are not comparable.

Taking the traffic of social networks as a standard, the traffic of "Jedi Knight" has easily exceeded 500 million, and the traffic of "Reviver" has also exceeded the threshold of 100 million. However, they are not on the same level as "Love". That's the difference between lightweight and heavyweight.

three billion.

The discussion traffic of "Love" has broken through three billion.

Of course, the discussion flow has been brewing since before the film crew was finished, including the paparazzi incident, etc. The entire timeline is still relatively long; but the same is true for "Jedi Knight" and "Reviver", from actor cast to behind-the-scenes footage. When it comes to publicity and promotion, all works are the same~www.readwn.com~ There is no harm without comparison, and there is no gap without comparison.

Throughout January, the discussion flow of "Love" showed a strong posture of riding a horse, and with the advancement of time, it is still climbing, opening the gap step by step, bringing a touch of bright color to the desolate and cold winter. It seems to be the most worth watching work in the cinema after the beginning of the year:

Controversy means concern.

On the one hand, the score of "Love" in Qingzhu began to slowly decline, officially fell below nine points, and temporarily reached the position of 8.8, which shows the differences among netizens.

On the other hand, the number of ratings for "Love" in Qingzhu has exceeded 200,000, and it is moving towards 250,000, while the number of ratings for "Jedi Knight" has not yet reached 120,000. Not only has the gap not narrowed, Instead, it was further enlarged.

So, what about the box office?

For some movies, the discussion heat has broken through the sky, but the box office figures have not improved, because passers-by audiences who are not interested still have no interest.

"Love" is clearly not the case.
