Chapter 197 192 The Power of Tap Water Breaks the Record Again
Chapter 193 192. The power of tap water, breaking records again
“Choosing the midnight show of Transformers is definitely one of the best decisions I’ve made this year. It’s more exciting than you can imagine.
“I really want to tell you the plot, but I know I’ll get beaten for spoilers, so I can only say it’s great and everyone should go see it! ”
A Facebook user nicknamed “It Won’t Snow in Florence” posted a status with a movie ticket for “Transformers”.
As a veteran Facebook user, he has been using the software since it was launched and loves it very much.
Especially after Myspace was launched, he also created an account, but after experiencing it, he found that the users on it were too borderline and crazy.
The situation of dirty jokes and soft pornography is very serious. Every young man and woman is attracting attention by exposing themselves.
The status posted by these people often contains race, showing off wealth, promiscuity and other content that looks cool, but is actually disgusting.
And when he wants to enter someone else’s homepage, it often takes more than ten seconds to load, and after entering, he is often blinded by the colorful homepage of the other party.
If there is only Myspace on the market It's okay to use a large social software, and I have no choice.
But after experiencing the efficiency, convenience and simplicity of Facebook, it takes no more than three seconds to open anyone's homepage, and the contrast between the two is too obvious.
Besides, soft pornography is not real pornography, and the key parts are still covered. After a few days of watching, he will get tired of it, so he returned to Facebook.
After a long period of operation, he has accumulated nearly 300,000 followers, and he is also a well-known Internet celebrity.
However, Facebook has not yet opened advertising and other revenue functions, so it is mainly spiritual enjoyment, but it also makes many people enjoy it.
Shortly after Florence will not snow, the number of likes exceeded 1,000, and there were many comments below.
Fish who loves diving: "I just finished watching "Transformers" this morning. I agree with your point of view. It is really an extremely excellent and sincere work."
"Originally, I expected 70 points. After all, there is only a one-year production period, and passing is enough."
"But I really underestimated Eric Cooper. Official records show that he is only 23 years old, 2 years younger than me, but he did a great job! ”
“Explosions, collisions, conflicts, beauties, luxury cars, wars, in short, everything you want is there, I am willing to give "Transformers" 90 points. ”
Spark Matrix: "I just walked out of the cinema, and I must say it really satisfies my fantasy of Transformers."
“Optimus Prime, Bumblebee, Megatron, Starscream, Vertigo."
“Just like the trailer, each Transformer has a vivid and unique shape and role.”
“The extremely hot action and war scenes are far more exciting than the trailer, and the movie is completely worthy of five-star praise.”
“It’s just that there is a little sadness in it, especially when those soldiers sacrificed themselves to launch a fearless attack on the Decepticons, I was moved.”
“Maybe my tear point is relatively low, but I was really moved by these plots.”
“Originally, my nickname was the Curse of the Black Pearl, but I just changed it. I admit that I betrayed, but I don’t regret it. ”
Some people praised the high quality of the movie, and went to see it for the Transformers, while others praised the actors, and went to see it for the handsome men and beautiful women.
A user nicknamed "The Daughter of the Sea" posted a dynamic with a poster with the main characters such as Chris Evans, Gadot and Ryan Reynolds.
"As a woman, I am not a fan of Transformers. Barbie dolls accompanied my childhood. ”
"But there are really no good movies in the cinema now. I watched "Happy Death Day" and "Sharknado" some time ago. ”
"I have a good impression of Gal Gadot and Ryan Reynolds, so my boyfriend dragged me to see "Transformers". ”
"Those big guys are good, but Gal Gadot is the most attractive to me. She is really beautiful and heroic. ”
"Her performance in "Transformers" is completely different from "Happy Death Day", which makes her look like a bitch and a girl next door. ”
“The former fully demonstrates her sexiness and strength. Look at her fighting bravely with dirt and scars all over her. You will say it is so cool.”
“If I were a man, I would definitely fall in love with her.”
“Ryan Reynolds also subverted my imagination. He was a complete idiot in “Sharknado”, but he turned into the toughest and bravest warrior here.”
“Although he didn’t appear as long as Sam, I always felt that Captain William was the real hero. Do you feel the same as me? ”
Seeing that Facebook users were so eager to share, Eric immediately assigned Fitz a task to promote an official event.
Post event tweets directly to all users. As long as you post the dynamics of watching "Transformers", the background will capture all users.
A week later, 500 users who participated in the event will be randomly selected, and each will be given 10 free tickets.
Users can dispose of these tickets at will, and watch it themselves, give it to friends and family, or sell it.
Countless facts have proved that when your movie is good enough, people will spontaneously become tap water.
And when the movie itself has adopted a strong publicity offensive and its quality is worthy of its publicity, people are more willing to spread the word.
However, if the quality is not up to the scale of your publicity, it is likely to backfire and the audience will have a rebellious mentality.
"Transformers" obviously belongs to the former, which can wear the crown and can also match the position.
So in addition to many Facebook users who are promoting spontaneously, many users of the rival Myspace are also helping to promote it, as well as portals, major forums, blogs, chat rooms, movie websites, etc.
In addition to the United States, other countries that are released simultaneously are also the same scene.
In Japan, on the streets of Shibuya, Tokyo, Yoshikawa walked out of the cinema alone with a complicated expression.
As a thirty-something office worker, he has never been in the mood to watch movies since the Japanese economic bubble burst and entered the era of loss.
Every day, he is overwhelmed by the heavy work. He has to bow and be humble in the company, and when he returns home, he has to face the faces of his wife and children because of financial constraints. Dignity seems to have become a luxury.
When he dreams at midnight, he often dreams of his childhood, when he was still in elementary and middle school, and the Japanese economy was still in its golden age. It is said that selling Tokyo can buy the United States.
My father, brother and mother would be by my side, and we would watch our favorite cartoon "Transformers" together. That feeling was called happiness.
After standing blankly at the entrance of the cinema for a long time, Yoshikawa finally walked to the public telephone booth and dropped a coin.
"Moshimoshi. This is Yoshikawa's house. May I ask who you are?"
"Ogasan, it's me."
"Jirang? What's wrong with your voice? It sounds a little strange."
"Nothing. By the way, a movie was just released recently. Why don't we go watch it together? I'll take Xiaoyou and Longma, you take your mother, and your brother's family."
"Watch a movie? But your mother and I are both over 60 years old and have no interest. What's wrong with you today? Did anything happen?"
"No, Ogasan, I just suddenly remembered when I was a child, it was snowing and cold outside, and our family happily gathered around the stove, and you accompanied me to watch cartoons."
The other end of the phone was silent for a moment, and then replied softly: "I see, let's go watch it together. It just so happens that your mother and I haven't been to the cinema for a long time."
"Thank you, Ogasan!"
Huaxia, Yanjing.
College student Zhang Chu returned home, then turned on the computer on the table and logged into Xici Hutong, which he often used.
More than half an hour later, a post titled "Transformers, that was my childhood" appeared, recording a childhood dream in simple words.
"I can't remember which grade I was in elementary school, maybe fourth grade, or fifth grade."
"Every day after school, I would wait in front of the TV on time, waiting for the appearance of Calabash Brothers, Black Cat Sheriff, and Ikki the Little Monk."
"But later they all disappeared, and Black Cat Sheriff left a message asking for the next episode and disappeared without a trace."
"And on Friday afternoon, I sat on a small bench as promised and turned on the TV. This time, a new image appeared that I had never seen before."
"One by one, the imaginative robots and the gorgeous transformation movements made me unforgettable at first sight. It was "Transformers."
"From then on, I and many classmates and friends There are new topics and hobbies. "
"I still remember that during the break, we would run outside the classroom to play role-playing games, but because I was small, I was always assigned to the Decepticon camp, and they didn't let me be Megatron, and even Starscream didn't get my turn. It was good enough to get Soundwave. "
"We would roll the books into a tube and use them as gun barrels, and then use our mouths to voice-over and shout "Power Gun, Fire!" and then have a lot of fun. "
"Once I went to the home of the fat boy Zhou Xiaobing. His father should be an official, so there are a lot of toys at home. At his home, I first came into contact with real Transformers toys. "
"He also taught me to use plasticine I wanted to make Optimus Prime, but since I didn't have money to buy plasticine, I could only make clay by myself after returning home and make khaki dolls. "
"Later, the cartoon was over, and we had no channels to watch new ones. We just heard that Optimus Prime and Megatron died together. When we heard the news, everyone was very angry and felt that our faith collapsed. "
"Later, as I grew up, Transformers gradually faded out of my sight. "
"Until recently, the news about Transformers in China seemed to come alive suddenly, and I learned that it was a live-action movie that was about to be released. "
"At that moment, my childhood memories seemed to come alive, so I took ”
“But my nephew is too young to understand many plots, so he asked me who this robot is and who that one is. ”
“I said don’t worry about it, do you like it?”
“My nephew nodded and said he liked it very much. He had never seen such imaginative robots and gorgeous transformations, which were completely different from “Pokemon”, “Duck Detective” and “Jackie Chan Adventures”. ”
“I said I liked it, they are Transformers, they are my childhood, and I believe they will also be your childhood.”
The post was responded to soon after it was published. Zhang Chu’s childhood was also the childhood of countless people.
Related discussions also appeared on Sina’s Yingxing Tianxia, Mop, Tianya and other forums.
Even the two film and television enthusiasts forums, “Rear Window Movie” and “Movie Night Boat”, which have always claimed to be serious and focused on art films and academic values, have also seen a lot of discussions.
However, most of the members of these two forums are teachers and students from Beijing Film Academy, China Academy of Drama, Beijing Broadcasting Institute and other institutions, so discussing business is secondary, and more about studying the gap in technology of Chinese films.
Britain, France, Germany, South Korea, Australia.
In just one day, "Transformers" won praise from all over the world with gorgeous special effects, cool transformations, shocking war scenes and praise of human courage.
Eric read these reviews carefully, and it felt really wonderful that the fruits of his labor were affirmed by everyone.
Of course, not everyone was satisfied, and some bad reviews were also included.
For example, the Independent, this newspaper published a film review the next day. It was really efficient, but it was also really mean. It was more or less against MGM with the idea of driving away a group of audiences.
The title it published was "An old work that disappointed anime fans."
"I went to the cinema yesterday to watch the much-anticipated Transformers. I can only say that the plot is old-fashioned and outdated. It is still a treasure-hunting mode, and the battle between good and evil is just a cover."
"If it is just the old-fashioned plot, it would be fine, but the most important thing is that the movie did not restore the Transformers in the animation."
"Their appearance, weapons, and personalities, except for Optimus Prime and Bumblebee, the other Transformers are like tools to make up the numbers."
"The mechanical giant that can destroy the planet at will can be stopped by the human army and hurt by human weapons. This situation is really not Transformers."
"So I advise those anime fans who want to see the true restoration to give up. You can't find any respect for the original here."
"Everything is just a pile of boring special effects, which is just the self-fantasy of the young director."
The evaluation of the Independent fully reflects the saying that as long as they want to black you, they will rack their brains to find angles to black you no matter how well they do.
Will anyone believe this kind of thing?
There will definitely be.
But are there many people who believe it?
Facts speak for themselves.
On November 18, Transformers grossed $39.7 million, down only 12%.
On November 19, word of mouth continued to ferment, especially the word of mouth from passers-by.
Transformers continued to gross $30.3 million, down 23.6% from the day before.
For the most important first three-day box office for a movie, Transformers finally won $119 million.
It once again broke the record of $114 million held by Spider-Man, leading by more than $5 million.
You should know that Spider-Man was released on the three-day weekend, when students and office workers were on vacation.
Transformers was released from Monday to Wednesday, and many people wanted to watch it but couldn't find the time. This gap is like the summer season and the normal season, there is a big gap.
Sam Raimi, the director of Spider-Man, also congratulated him in an interview and declared that Spider-Man 2 next year would regain the spot.
But the public is not optimistic about this, because according to the rule, the sequels of most works are not as good as the first one.
Bang!
A salute sounded, and Eric waved his hand.
Let's go full throttle, increase publicity, and keep going!
