Chapter 89 When the "King" Met the "King"

The premiere of "Titanic" finally ended amid applause.

After walking out of the cinema, some movie fans looked up at the sun in the distance, and then looked at the earth under their feet...

When the movie was playing, they felt as if they were in the Titanic. As the waves swayed and felt the tension of the sea burying the ship, they also seemed to be able to feel the biting chill in the sea.

Then……

The movie is over, after walking out of the cinema...

Ok!

Bathed in the warm sunshine, it feels good to be down-to-earth.

They let out a long breath.

At the end of spring, summer is not yet here.

Some movie fans wiped away their tears, immersed in the story of "Titanic" and couldn't extricate themselves.

As soon as they close their eyes, their minds are filled with scenes from "Titanic"...

This is a great movie.

At the same time, it's a touching, incomparably beautiful love story.

love!

This seems like a very strange term.

When many middle-aged people suddenly think of this word, they suddenly feel a little lost.

Do you believe in love?

In this materialistic world, in this world of "the right family" and "the rich man and the beautiful woman"...

Love seems to be cheap.

Everyone is equal, this sentence seems to be a good declaration, but in fact, is everyone equal?

Even if it's the same country, the same skin color...

Are all people equal?

No!

People of different classes always have discrimination and despise...

and love,

Also in such a world began to become a transaction.

The love in "Titanic" is very simple, but it is not as blunt as the love in other idol dramas. It is so pure, so pure that we promise each other life and death, so pure that we pay for each other...

Some middle-aged people sighed again.

Then……

I don't know how many couples look at each other...

"If, I am on that boat, if, I jump off that sea, if I jump, will you jump?"

"I can jump!"

"..."

You can always hear this sentence from the mouths of young couples, and then you see them embrace each other emotionally, as if they have met love...

as if……

They became Jack and Rose, and they stood on the deck, feeling the sea wind blowing in the distance, and the waves rolling.

but……

Can they withstand the wind and rain?

neither knows.

All they know at this moment, at least for the moment they leave the theater, is that they are Jack and Rose.

What girls ask is true, and what boys ask is true.

……………………………

noon.

Fans of "La La Land" also left the theater.

Both Titanic and La La Land are love stories.

but……

But it's different.

Where Titanic was a love story before and after a disaster, La La Land is a romance chasing a dream...  

The beauty is in a mess, and then the romance is hopeless...

Then, with the regret of finally choosing to be relieved.

The frustrated hero and heroine meet in winter, fall in love in summer, and become confused again in autumn...

Eventually, it felt like everything was starting to feel out of place, and eventually...

parted...

Five years later, they met again by chance. After the meeting, some things have changed, and things have changed.

The heroine is married and has a happy family, and has also become a well-known star.

And the hero...

It's still the male lead, playing music in the bar...

The moment the hero sees the heroine...

The music he played became the music when the two first met.

At that moment, the montage shot switches to another screen, another world.

Then, in another scene, the male lead rejected the show, participated in the female lead's show, passed the interview with the female lead, got married, and had a child...

Everything looks the best.

Then……

Reality is reality after all...

This story seems old-fashioned, but in terms of audio-visual experience, film master Nino has done it to the extreme...

Storytelling with music.

After watching "Titanic", An Xiao watched "La La Land" again.

After reading it, she felt extremely uncomfortable.

If "Titanic" gave her the feeling of beauty mixed with greatness, then "La La Land" gave her the feeling of beauty and romance mixed with reality.

She enjoyed both movies, but...

She is more substituting for "La La Land"...

In fact, she always got into the car with red eyes.

After getting in the car, her friend and manager remained silent and did not ask any questions, nor did she ask where she was going next.

The car just circled aimlessly on the streets of Yanjing...

She looked at the slowly receding buildings outside the car window, and saw couples, couples, and children walking far away in her sight...

She thought of the past.

Thinking of that year, the scene when the two met.

If, at the beginning, she was desperate, then...

Would the story be different?

If she had met him first, would the story be different?

no one answered her...

"Let's go back."

"Where are you going?"

"Go to the original place..."

"Oh."

"..."

………………………………………

The premieres of the three films quickly came to an end.

After the curtain falls...

China is boiling.

Weibo exploded!

""Titanic" is a very great movie. Like our Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai, he has become the most unique and beautiful landscape... After watching the movie, every plot, every I remember the details clearly. Perhaps, I will never forget Jack and Ruth embraced each other on the deck under the sunset. I also can’t forget the sentence "youjump, ijump". This is a promise of life and death. , the purest love... If conditions permit, I hope to go to the cinema to watch it a second time, but unfortunately, conditions do not allow me to buy a second ticket, hey... While talking about this movie, I want to say something The number of films in our Chinese theaters..." Ms. He Yun, a famous Chinese film critic, writer and screenwriter, complained on Weibo after "Titanic" was released...

In addition to expressing the exquisiteness of "Titanic" unilaterally, he also made complaints about the nature of the current film schedule in China's theaters.

She felt that the first reason why she couldn't get a second ticket for "Titanic" was that the movie was really popular, and the second reason was that China's film scheduling system was really unfair...

Although it can't be said that "Titanic" accounts for a large proportion of the film schedule, at least, it can't have the same amount of film schedule as a film like "The Age of Man", right?

""Titanic" is indeed a good movie, but I think that "La La Land" is also a good movie. The love in "Titanic" is so beautiful, It’s too pure, but have you ever thought about why it’s beautiful? What if Jack didn’t die on that big ship? Or, if the giant ship Titanic didn’t hit an iceberg, then wait for this pair What is for lovers? Yes! What awaits them is the real class, what awaits them, the bare reality, "La La Land" is obviously a different way to film another kind of love, personally I think the love in "La La Land" is much more realistic than "Titanic"..." Helen, a well-known Hollywood film critic, shook her head and recommended "La La Land" emphatically...

She thinks that "La La Land" is also a classic, a great movie, its brilliance is unshakable, at least, its brilliance should not be much inferior to that of "Titanic"!

Her movie review instantly exploded on the US Internet, and was immediately placed on the top page of the American Movie Network...

"I don't think "La La Land" is a realistic love story, on the contrary, I think "Titanic" is, it is more like a symbol of crossing classes, and, even in reality, Jack It is impossible for Ruth and Ruth to be defeated. Although they are chasing freedom, they will pay for each other, life and death..."

"I also think Titanic is more of a..."

"..."

"..."

In the circle of film critics.

The flames are everywhere.

When two excellent films of the same genre are released on the same day, they are bound to set off waves of waves!

Even if the same screenwriter will be compared...

When the evening falls, the film circles of the whole world seem to be filled with two films at this moment.

A "Titanic" and a "La La Land"...

All have their say on these two films about love, about romance, about regret.

Then, I don't know when it started, led by some of the world's top film critics, the fans of these two movies quarreled in an instant...

Everyone is clamoring about what kind of love is real love. Everyone is talking about reality and fantasy, and everyone has their own understanding in it.

this moment……

The entire world film circle seems to be the only one of these two films, full of posts, opinions, stories, and characters...

The king does not see the king...

Even if the premiere is postponed by one day, it can be regarded as the king has not seen the king...

This is the unspoken rule of the film industry.

However, at this moment the king saw the king...

Then……

The smoke filled the air.

……………………………

There are always shadows under the great brilliant light.

Some movies have huge traffic, but some movies are born at the wrong time and choose the wrong time.

Under the noisy and crazy public opinion...

"Anthropocene" is very embarrassing.

"Anthropocene" was originally the king!

A strong lineup, huge investment, crazy traffic and publicity...

But……

Maybe it's because "La La Land" and "Titanic" are two romantic drama films, and everyone has ignored this "Anthropocene"...

In the major media, major reports, and even some short video software, there are very few mentions of "Anthropocene".

Lorraine is indeed a very good director.

but……

He is no match for film master Nino.

"The Epoch of Man" is indeed a very powerful movie. In terms of details, including the plot of alien invasion, it is extremely serious and conscientious. At the same time, the cast is also extremely strong...

but……

In the end it lost to the sunset of "Titanic" and the night of "La La Land"...

Lost to a different love story that came out on the same day.

Although the venues are still full, no one on the Internet cares about this epic sci-fi movie, and the popularity is obviously not up to their imagination.

Both Wilson and Lorraine suddenly realized that this was a terrible thing.

Their "Anthropocene" was sandwiched between two movies.

They made an extremely fatal mistake!

They shouldn't be in the ring on the same day as "Titanic", or even the next day.

but……

It just happened!

In the early morning of May 2nd.

The box office of the movie has not yet come out.

Wilson and Lorraine looked at each other.

"Mr. Wilson, "Titanic" and "La La Land" may be phenomenal movies born in this era..."

"What do you mean, Mr. Lorain?"

"Or, let's temporarily cancel the release for rectification... When the influence of these two films has declined, we will release it..."

"Let me think about it again..."

"Ok."

in the office.

There was a silence.

After an unknown amount of time, there was a knock on the door.

The assistant pushed the door open excitedly and looked at the two with a shocked expression.

"Gentlemen, today's premiere box office is out!"

"..."

"..."
