Chapter 566 Word of mouth double heaven
Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!
It is not only Thor who created the promotional topic, but the premiere of "City of Chaos" is no exception. Cara Fais got up early in the morning and sent Murphy a text message, agreeing to have lunch together at noon. Then he flipped around on the Internet and social networking websites to check the actual audience response of "City of Chaos" and the public opinion trends of the itinerary on the Internet. Of course, it is also necessary to pay attention to the reputation of his competitor "City of Chaos".
Kara Fis first opened ImDB, and the newly released "Thor" and "City of Chaos" were placed on the homepage. She didn't care about "Thor" and clicked on the webpage of "City of Chaos". The first thing she saw was the high rating of 25,698 users with an average of 8.8 points!
Pull down the web page, and the reviews of a user named Daisy are topped high. Imdb's newly added like function has nearly 10,000 likes.
"In some ways, the male lead Chris Dane, played by Murphy in "City of Chaos", is a bit similar to the superhero. They are all doing the action to save the city, but the superheroes are even greater and dehumanized. They are noble and completely dehumanized and born to save the city and the earth. Chris Dane is more like an ordinary person. He has neither the ability to surpass humans nor the character of transcending humans. Saving New York is entirely based on a private standpoint, in order to complete revenge!"
"It is this completely personalized process that has gradually awakened the hero's consciousness, but his protection is completely different from that of superheroes. Superheroes bring people hope, but Chris Dane brings only fear!"
"Incarnation fear can overcome fear, and incarnation fear can bring power. This film by Murphy explores the impact of fear and fear from a unique perspective, which has never been seen in Hollywood films in the past! In this aspect alone, "City of Chaos" is great and enough to engrave the history of film!"
"In Hollywood movies in the past, all heroic protagonists always had a large number of admirers and supporters. But the fact is that real heroes are always lonely, not only because of their superb abilities, which leads to not many people qualified to stand by him, but also because, for such ability, he had to give up a lot of things that ordinary humans have, including feelings, and the energy to deal with the world, and look at it from a realistic perspective, just like Chris Dane."
"I always think that Murphy Stanton is a very realistic idealist. The idealism and innocence he upholds are not the same thing. Innocence is because he has not experienced the polishing of reality and still maintains a natural and simple nature. The idealistic people know how complex the world created by social rules is. There is still darkness behind the light. Just like "City of Chaos", although society is dark and suppressed, human nature is naturally prone to deflect to the evil and selfish side, Murphy never thought that society only has dark side. He gave Chris Dane the courage to hope and overcome fear. He also said that for those with courage, society is not only dark!"
"If you think that this society has only darkness and can only see darkness in Murphy Stanton's film, it's because you are broken by society like steel bars and then compromise."
"Complexity is a neutral word, because the realist idealist will see the darkness of this society, but this will not squeeze out the beauty of this society as he knows, and beauty and darkness together build the complexity of this society."
"Dark always coexists with beauty, this is "City of Chaos", and this is our social reality."
After reading this movie fans' comments, Cara Fais only felt that Murphy was really great. He was simply the most philosophical and ideological director in Hollywood.
Unfortunately, no one in this world knows Murphy better than her, except Gal Gadot. Her close friend may have considered a small part of it, but it will definitely not be like the movie fan interpreted it.
Murphy gives the film a deeper connotation, not to discuss fear and reflect social reality, but simply because this can attract fans and improve the film and his director...
How do you say that? By the way, it is called style!
However, unlike what Cara Fais thought, the argument of the movie fan named Daisy seemed to be the reaction of many movie fans' ideas. In the comments with the second most likes, she also saw a similar tone.
"City of Chaos is a real story, with choices about sunshine and darkness, and fears behind heroes. The real world is that each individual is as complex and diverse as society itself, rather than just illuminating their beauty like fluorescent lights gather on heroes."
"The real world is that almost no one has no bond in his life, and not everyone can despise his bottom line in his life. That is the weakest part of your life and the source of your strength. A true hero is not without fear, but he is brave enough to move forward!"
"Murphy Stanton uses the art of film to bring us a wonderful real world!"
Then, Cara Fais clicked on the section of "Thor" again. Seeing the 7.3 rating, he couldn't help but smile. This was the score given by comic fans. Then, the number of passers-by in the video increased, and it might soon drop below 7 points.
The top two comments seem to be posted by Marvel Comics fans themselves, and they seem a little disappointed with this video.
"The film is lower than expected, and it is more like a biography of characters that has been launched in an effort to make the Avengers. The fight has no highlights, and the plot is even weaker. The most impressive thing is the special effects and video settings during the movie. The audience can enjoy excitement and excitement. It seems that all the people focus on how to express the heavenly palace. The actor's performance is simply a disaster. Chris Hemsworth can only show his hand-to-hand eyes. Natalie Portman successfully transforms into a middle-aged woman, and with a clichéd plot and boring fight, he will tell the story with a qualified one, without any impression. The one that will be handed over to the Avengers later..."
This user only gave six points that had just passed the video, and the comments ranked second below gave five points.
"The plot is really unnutritional. Not only can't stand scrutiny, but it also complicates simple things. The character's personality changes that could have been very delicate can be completed simply and roughly in one scene. The background is magnificent, but it is photographed with a very petty spirit. The rhythm is too slow, the climax is also chaotic. The scenes between God and the human world are too inconsistent, and the various accents are so chaotic."
Kara Fis turned off imdb and opened Rotten Tomatoes to take a look. The difference on this website was even more obvious. The freshness of Rotten Tomatoes in "City of Chaos" was 84%, and the comprehensive score was 8.2; the freshness of "Thor" was 63%, and the comprehensive score was 5.7...
Then, she logged on Facebook, and the section about the movies was also lively.
While waiting for the webpage to refresh, Cara Fais briefly analyzed the current audience responses of "City of Chaos" and "Thor". The former has a very good reputation, which is also quite good; the latter has a worrying reputation and is likely to lack box office momentum.
Facebook's web page was refreshed, and Kara Fis looked through it for a while. Without basically no use of the Internet navy, like IDC, the social networking websites still had a lot of praise for "City of Chaos".
"Murphy Stanton used "City of Chaos" to perfectly interpret how a person should grow and how to make himself truly powerful: overcome inner fears, exercise himself, stick to the moral bottom line and unparalleled self-control. Chris Dane is the shadow of each of us, so it is so charming."
Compared to "City of Chaos", there are also many discussions on Facebook about "Thor", but few people think it is a very exciting film.
"The story of Thor seems pale and asymmetric to the scene."
"The movie is not too interesting because the narrative of the story is a bit out of control."
"As a comic fan, I was quite disappointed after watching the movie."
"The plot is too mentally retarded, the scenes and fights all have a feeling of small fights, and the characters are too stereotyped, which is a very ordinary movie."
After reading these, Carla Fisch knew very well that he might be able to do some work in word of mouth and pull down the hindrance of "Thor".
Since most Hollywood companies and North American theater companies rarely adopt the exclusive screening model, the number of theaters in "Thor" and "City of Chaos" has reached 4,000, and there are overlapping screenings in quite a few films.
In this way, the two films will have direct conflicts in the screening. Currently, the screening rate of "Thor" and "City of Chaos" is about 30%. If one of the films has a mediocre reputation and subsequent performance is weak, the screening rate will definitely be reduced by the theater, and the screening rate of the other film will be appropriately increased.
Twentieth Century Fox has more advantages than Walt Disney in cinemas, and can fully win a higher schedule than it is now.
Although the audience's choice of ticket purchase is not either you or me, at the beginning of this summer, if viewers who like blockbusters are affected by word of mouth, they will inevitably increase the possibility of choosing "City of Chaos".
After so many years of entering the management of Twentieth Century Fox, Carla Fis has long become a veteran in this field.
After looking at the time, Carla Fiss turned off his computer, walked out of the room, took the elevator to the second floor restaurant of the Waldorf Assistant Hotel, sat down at the reserved seat, and waited patiently for Murphy and Gal Gadot to come.
Since it was still early, she asked for a glass of water and continued to think while drinking.
Chapter completed!
