Chapter 909 Controversy strikes

“Fury Road” can’t be regarded as the most eye-catching work this summer, but it is definitely the most shining dark horse work. Since the premiere, the discussion has remained high, and almost everyone will more or less mention it. Works, even reporters are very happy to touch on topics related to this work during the interview process, but unlike the film critics’ pursuit, not everyone likes this work, the crazy “Fury Road” After all, the cult style still makes some viewers uncomfortable.

Clint Eastwood said bluntly, “I haven’t seen this movie.” When the reporter asked, Clint added, “I didn’t plan to watch it either.” The old cowboy, who is loved by Americans, has no cold for “Fury Road”.

Ben Affleck also said in an interview in Boston, “I don’t have any interest in this production.”

Steven Soderbergh even yelled, “Absurd! Absurd!” After watching the movie in Los Angeles, he was surrounded by reporters and accepted an interview, “This movie is extremely absurd! The director spent countless efforts On top of the camera and special effects, the most magnificent picture ever built, but it is built on a two hour long chase scene? Jesus-hell-Christ! How weak and boring this story is ?It’s all based on the fact that the audience is a bunch of idiots, you have one group chasing another group and expect the audience to exclaim: Hey let’s pray that they don’t get caught? God, This is sillier than ‘The Fast and the Furious’!”

Of course, everyone knows that Steven and George Clooney are best friends, and they are almost good friends who wear a pair of pants. This is also considered to be a signal that Steven is fighting for his friend.

The reporters all started to get excited, which is normal. The cult style of “Fury Road” is indeed too maverick, and many people are bound to be unaccustomed to it. Even when “Star Wars” was just launched, it set off a box office storm, but there are still many mainstream media still unable to Appreciation, what’s more, the style of “Fury Road” is far more slanted than “Star Wars”, and the guitarist in red is already too much for many people.

Sean Penn shook his head again and again during the interview, and said bluntly, “No, that guitarist in red looks like he / mother / is like a disgusting woodpecker stuffed into a bazooka and cannot be pulled out, too he / Mom/It’s weird. I can’t accept it, I might as well just let me directly fight that **** guy hard.”

Now, seven days after the official premiere of “Fury Road,” negative reviews are finally starting to creep in, and the film’s controversies are bound to rise even further.

However, the reporters didn’t have to wait too long, the breaking point hit soon, and it was out of control.

At the premiere of “Water Banshee” held on Wednesday, the clothes are fragrant, the temples are full of wine, the cups are intertwined, and it is very lively. Although the number of guest lineups cannot be compared with “Superman Returns” and “Fury Road”, the quality is definitely not weak. , triggering one after another climax on the red carpet, every detail reveals the strong confidence of Warner Bros., which is eye-catching.

When several reporters interviewed Charlie-Sheen, they didn’t even have time to bring up the topic of “Fury Road”, and Charlie unexpectedly took the initiative to shoot, “How can anyone like ‘Fury Road’ so stupid The movie? That work disgusts me! The director must be a shameless and shameless gay, otherwise how could he make such a shameless and dirty work? This is an insult to men!”

Charlie had only said a few words, and in an instant all the reporters around were boiling, and rushed over in a swarm. Originally, today was the premiere of “Water Banshee”, and everyone more or less gave Warner Bros. face, even if “Fury Road” was mentioned, they all clicked on it. Unexpectedly, Charlie took the initiative to break the news, and everyone’s enthusiasm was overwhelming. Immediately ignited – with a bang!

Facing the swarming reporters, Charlie seemed even more excited, waving his arms and pointing out, “In action movies, men are the heroes, how can women be the savior? This is ridiculous. I know times are different now and women seem to be fighting for their rights, but come on guys, let’s all admit it, women just can’t compete with men in some ways, don’t we? So, don’t tell me What kind of confrontation, only that sissy Max can fight side by side with women. Shan’ is even more unbelievable. In an apocalyptic movie, in an action movie that returns to the original fighting, in a movie full of male hormones, actually a woman is the protagonist? I’m not crazy, That means the director was castrated/castrated.” After speaking, Charlie blinked at the reporters and said meaningfully, “I think, maybe there was a mistake during the shooting of the last movie.”

boom! Boom!

In an instant, everyone exploded, not only because Charlie criticized “Fury Road” to pieces, but also because Charlie directly pointed the finger at Lance, and the tit-for-tat curse was simply too wonderful and jaw-dropping.

Charlie Sheen has always been considered one of the two bad boys in Hollywood, the other being Sean Penn. Charlie literally ruined his own career, time and time again, from dying of a co/ca/ overdose, to court for domestic violence against his girlfriend, blowing $50,000*** Twenty-seven people seeking pleasure is just a trivial matter. After pornography/gambling/drugs became a taint in their personal lives, they publicly insulted the crew producers and senior management of the production company on talk shows, and were even forced to be sent to rehab/drug/institutions. And it has greatly affected the work, and the bohemian and lawless behavior is beyond the reach of even Robert Downey Jr. at his most absurd time.

After a long career slump, Charlie relied on his family’s strong connections – he and Bryce, the heroine of “The Banshee”, came from an acting family. In 2003, he starred in the TV series “Two and a Half Men” and returned to his career peak. But it has only been three years, and the old ways have relapsed, and the recent period has been plagued by negative news.

No one expected that Charlie would make a sudden attack at the premiere of “Water Banshee” and push “Fury Road” to the gallows at once, pointing the finger at the highly acclaimed feminism in the film.

In fact, after the release of “Fury Road”, the controversy about feminism has always existed. On “The Tonight Show,” Jay touched on this topic. For Hollywood, the phenomenon of inequality between men and women is flowing in the blood. Leaving aside all signs, it is very obvious in action movies alone.

As Charlie said, in previous action movies, it was always men who played superheroes to turn the tide, while women always existed as vases. The “Alien” series of movies originally set the core role as Sigourney Weaver, and built the entire work around the heroine Ripley, but in fact, Ripley’s combat effectiveness is not strong, and he is more desperate Reborn from adversity, survived by luck, even so, the series of movies also caused many men’s psychological discomfort, unable to accept that the woman survived to the end. So in “Alien 2”, James Cameron adapted the story with maternal love as the core content.

In response to this phenomenon of “Fury Road”, “Variety” magazine wrote a special feature and conducted an in-depth analysis, which aroused many reactions; and “Variety” film reviews also reflected this point of view, and praised feminism , I think this is an earth-shaking revolution/revolution/progress in action movies.

But in fact, many men feel serious discomfort with this, which is more serious than last year’s “Brokeback Mountain”, because “Fury Road” challenges the patriarchal social power that has been passed down for more than a dozen centuries, even if “men and women are equal” “The slogan has been shouted for half a century, but the deep-rooted concepts cannot be changed overnight.

Charlie’s words are the best proof. However, after the release of “Fury Road”, it almost swept away with the posture of a tiger descending the mountain. The audience has not yet recalled it, and the emotions of controversy, questioning and refutation have not had time to ferment, especially at the premiere box office. Underneath, all emotions remain in the stage of shock~www.readmtl.com~ The whole person is overwhelmed, so the discussion on feminism has not been able to rise for the time being.

Now, when Charlie mentions it, the problem is immediately cleared up. The reason why the movie “Fury Road” is so wonderful and highly praised is that its core depth has been affirmed, and business and art have reached a perfect balance. But now, this “artistic idea” has fallen into a whirlpool of controversy.

On the night of the premiere of “Water Banshee”, related news exploded on the Internet, and many patriarchs began to show up one after another, criticizing “Fury Road”. Although the United States is a country of immigrants, their racial/ethnic/discrimination and ethnic integration have never been resolved. Whites discriminate against blacks, men discriminate against women, Americans discriminate against Indians, local residents discriminate against immigrants, and even Italian immigrants , Nordic immigrants, and Latin American immigrants are also facing varying degrees of discrimination, not to mention the yellow race.

Among them, the white supremacists headed by the Ku Klux Klan are obviously strong defenders of traditional patriarchy. Their anger was completely provoked by Charlie’s remarks. Almost overnight, patriarchy The critics began to raise their heads strongly and ran around, calling on all men to boycott the work “Fury Road” to safeguard men’s rights and status.

However, this is just the beginning. (To be continued.)
