Chapter 891 unabated
Every weekend, movie theaters are always one of the best choices for people’s entertainment, especially in the hot summer, a dinner plus a movie date can never go wrong. North America in July was shrouded in a heat wave. Even after nightfall, the steamy air waves still floated in mid-air and did not settle for a long time. Considering that shopping malls have been closed one after another, movie theaters have become the number one choice.
Edward Norton pressed the brim of his hat, walked into the cinema hall with his head down, and saw a movie poster placed in a prominent position out of the corner of his eye. The one in the center is “Fury Road”. This movie theater has ingeniously chosen the most artistic one in the official version of the poster. The blue sky is the curtain, and a huge skull in the center is rising and falling. It was covered with dark red dust, as if it had just been dug out of the desert. The sand fog below was surging into the sky, and directly below it was written in bright yellow fonts, “Mad Max: Fury Road”, there is no cast list, no The name of the director is just such a simple and clear poster, but it shows Lance’s strong self-confidence, which is really eye-catching.
On both sides are “Pirates of the Caribbean 2” posters. There are three character posters of different styles. It can be seen from the proportions and positions that Chaos Pictures’ promotional strength is still not comparable to that of Warner Bros. and Disney. Even though “Fury Road” is the hottest premiere this week, “Pirates of the Caribbean 2” still wins in terms of quantity and quality. Even “Superman Returns,” which came out two weeks ago, has two posters on the list.
However, the advantages of publicity hardware did not seem to be able to shake the audience’s preference. Edward stood behind the line to buy movie tickets-there was actually a queue for summer movies. Except when “Star Wars Prequel” was released, such a grand event was almost unheard of. Yes—the four people in front of him all bought movie tickets for “Fury Road”, and then Edward stepped forward, “One ticket for the nearest show of ‘Fury Road’.”
The conductor standing in front of him showed a professional smile, “There will be a game in five minutes, but now only the corner is left, and the next game will be at 10:05.” The conductor’s business process is very skilled, “There are still some good spots in ‘Pirates of the Caribbean 2’ fifteen minutes later, though.”
Edward took out his wallet and handed over his credit card, “Just the one in five minutes.”
The conductors have long been familiar with this situation. Everyone is discussing the attendance rate of “Pirates of the Caribbean 2” and “Fury Road” this week. Of course, the former is the second week, and the latter is the first week. The advantage is definitely On the latter side, but the decline in the appeal of “Pirates of the Caribbean 2” to the audience is really surprising, as if it was left in the cold palace overnight. The huge gap is in stark contrast to the media’s attention , which makes it difficult to have confidence in the performance of the next week’s box office decline.
Edward took the movie ticket, then walked straight towards the entrance, and found the screening hall smoothly after checking the tickets. Entering the screening hall, the lights had already dimmed, which made Edward a little relieved. After all, public places like movie theaters are still a bit stressful for artists.
The trailer of “Night at the Museum” was playing on the big screen behind him, and low laughter could be heard from the scene. It seemed that the trailer was working well. Looking around, Edward noticed that all the auditorium seats in the center were full, even the first row was no exception, and about half of the seats on both sides were already full, with an occupancy rate of at least 100. Eighty percent, although this is the premiere weekend of “Fury Road”, although today is Saturday, the attendance rate is bound to be higher, but such a scene is still surprising.
With his waist down, Edward looked around with the help of the faint fluorescence of the big screen. He found an empty seat in the corner, walked over quickly and sat down, and then took off his hat. The movie started soon, although Edward had just watched the movie three days ago, and the impression in his mind was so clear, but when the familiar and unfamiliar sound of the engine came from the surround sound, he still felt it again. My blood boiled.
As soon as the first picture appeared, a surprised swearing voice came from his ears, “Grass!” But the man realized his impoliteness when he made the sound—talking in a movie theater is a very rude behavior, so he quickly shut it mouth, but a slight restlessness could still be clearly felt in the entire auditorium.
Edward couldn’t help but move his sitting posture. Even when he saw such a picture for the second time, he was still impressed by Lance’s whimsy and boldness. The composition is even bolder than “Sin City”, and the madness rooted in the blood is the most exciting source of “Fury Road”.
The movie started soon, and the exclamations never stopped. Every detail in the base was so novel that it made people overwhelmed. Edward knew clearly that he couldn’t adapt to the huge amount of information when he watched the movie for the first time, and could only passively follow Lance’s lens to experience the entire wasteland world. The combination of novelty and desolation, grotesque and dirty The unique texture together created a world comparable to “Star Wars”, but when watching the movie for the second time, Edward found more and more details in it, even the background picture and the supporting characters without any lines. It’s full of scenes.
Edward can be sure that the “Fury Road” crew should spend a lot of energy on training and makeup for the extras to ensure that each character has its meaning, rather than simply filling the scene with numbers. This made Edward think of every car with a different design in the movie, and then thought of every vivid character in “City of God”, and his mind was full of thoughts for a while.
“Hahahaha!” The wanton laughter in the projection hall interrupted Edward’s thoughts, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Max tied to the front of the car on the big screen, “What else can they take away from me? First it was my blood, now it is my car!” Edward couldn’t help but smile, Max is probably the most aggrieved actor in history, but he also knew that the shock would follow.
Sure enough, the moment the heavy bass carriage came on stage, the sound of the audience gasping made Edward smile contentedly, and the excitement had just begun.
Soon, the entire auditorium became silent, and even the sound of breathing disappeared completely.
Emerson-Carter stared dumbfounded at the unprecedented sandstorm on the big screen, and the ant-like war mast. The miracle and majesty of nature were fully displayed at this moment, and Emerson’s head was already Completely crashed, lost the ability to think, people always say how grand and grand the visual effects of the “Lord of the Rings” series are, how realistic and magnificent the visual effects of “Titanic” are, and how amazing the visual effects of “Spiderman” are. Exciting and thrilling, but in Emerson’s view, in front of “Fury Road”, other computer special effects look like amateur works of college students. The gap in absolute strength cannot be made up at all, and the shocking effect is even worse. do not.
Lily Carter, who was sitting next to her, didn’t even realize that she was tightly grasping the back of Emerson’s hand. She just tried to widen her eyes and scanned the big screen over and over again. Unbelievable charm burst out of the symphony. As a girl, a girl who has never been interested in visual special effects, Lily is truly engrossed at the moment. She finally understands the shocking effect brought about by movie special effects, which actually gave her an immersive experience The impulsiveness of the effect and the astonishment of the viewing effect reached the extreme at this moment.
Edward suddenly remembered Quentin’s question at the premiere, and he couldn’t help but frowned, lost in thought, how did Lance do it? How on earth did Lance complete such magnificent special effects shooting on the spot? Is Lance a genius or a lunatic who came up with the idea of shooting on-site in the desert? Watching it for the second time, the shocking effect has not weakened at all. The powerful charm that takes away your breath makes the doubts in your mind a mess~www.readmtl.com~ I fell into the world of “Fury Road” and couldn’t extricate myself.
“Now make me look crazy, now make me look crazy…” The bell of Beyoncé’s classic number one single “Crazy Love” rang suddenly in the auditorium, and everyone was cursing for a moment Wake up, being interrupted during the viewing process is simply unacceptable. The audience immediately refused to answer the phone, and then quickly turned off the phone. You can see that the faint light of the phone brightened and then dimmed , the auditorium fell into silence again, but at this moment, a voice asked, “Is that the music of the zombie dancing viral video?”
The voices of “Grass!” and “Shut up!” came one after another, and the surging emotions were almost uncontrollable, but after about half a second, many people actually burst into laughter—obviously that audience should also be “Fury Road” fans who otherwise wouldn’t have Beyoncé on their phone ringtones, and now they’re watching “Fury Road,” a craze that has far more impact on ordinary viewers than they can imagine.
But soon, this small commotion subsided completely, and the thrilling chase on the big screen reached its first peak, and Angarad died. The auditorium was terribly quiet, and the sad and heroic emotion slowly spread among everyone. Edward caught the flash of fragility in Max’s eyes, which made his heart soften slightly. It got wet.
Introverted but profound, delicate and vivid, the reason why “Fury Road” can become a classic is because every small detail reflects Lance’s meticulousness. There were occasional suppressed sobs in the projection hall, but they calmed down quickly. The emotion of learning to be strong in a desperate situation seemed to infect every audience from the big screen.
