Chapter 567: Three No Bad Movies
Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!
Perhaps because he had consumed too much energy last night, Murphy sat opposite Carafes and ordered a bunch of meat. Then plates of food were sent up. He looked like he was greedy, making the two women a little stunned.
"Did you come back from Africa just now?" Kara Fis said deliberately.
"I didn't eat dinner last night..." Murphy shrugged, "I didn't eat breakfast today, I'm so hungry."
Cara Fes turned to Gal Gadot, "What have you two done? You won't be crazy from last night to now, right?"
Gal Gadot put down the water cup and said openly, "We are not Superman."
"How many times have you done it?" Carafes tilted his head, looked at Murphy first, then at Gal Gadot, and his eyes finally fell on Gal Gadot's neck.
She had heard Gal Gadot mention before that the two of them often played some large-scale games.
Gal Gadot was wearing a turtleneck short-sleeved shirt, and wasn't worried about what Cara Fais saw.
Although it is common for good friends to discuss some private topics here, Murphy still changed the topic in time.
"I have read a lot of comments on the Internet before I came."
The food was almost done, Murphy put down the knife and fork and said, "In general, it is very beneficial to us. We can increase our reputation marketing efforts."
Carla Fis nodded slightly, "Thor's reputation is very average."
“Can we do something about this?”
The person opposite is Carla Fiss, and Murphy said it very directly, "Further strengthen the reputation of "Thor" in the media and the Internet. Of course, its professional reputation is even worse, which allows more people to know this, especially passers-by audiences who are not fans of comics."
Gal Gadot added, "This will affect the movie choices of passers-by."
"That's what I mean," Kara Fis smiled. "Your video, word-of-mouth marketing is a necessary means."
If you want to use word-of-mouth marketing, the most basic thing is to ensure the quality of the video, otherwise it will have a completely negative effect.
Murphy and Kara Feithi did not mention the oral agreement that Carla Feith had reached before with Kevin Feith. Who cares about this oral agreement when it is profitable and does not touch the bottom line of Walt Disney?
After lunch, Murphy, accompanied by Gal Gadot, attended some publicity activities organized by Twentieth Century Fox. Carla Fis contacted the company's professional team and put the plan into practice.
Just half afternoon, large-scale remarks against Thor began to appear on the Internet.
“Thor is definitely the most disappointing commercial masterpiece this year!”
"There has never been a superhero movie that can be as bad as Thor!"
"From the movie "Thor", you will understand what a bad movie without plot, acting and theme is!"
"Marvel's "Thor" has come to a new level, which is worse than "Soul Chariot 2"!"
News and comments like this are spreading rapidly on the Internet like viruses.
If "Thor" itself has excellent quality and good audience reputation and professional reputation, such rumors will not have much negative impact on the film. Instead, they will cause discussion on topics on the Internet under the counterattack of many viewers who support the film, thereby increasing the attention of the film itself.
The problem is that the quality of this film is really average, the audience's reputation is mediocre, and many comic fans are even dissatisfied. There are very few fans who are really willing to stand up and refute.
Perhaps based on the brand effect formed by Marvel and the Avengers, "Thor" will still have a certain market in the short term, but if the passers-by are affected, the momentum will definitely be insufficient.
The Internet has penetrated into every corner of North America. Once the negative news about Thor spreads, many people have been affected.
The bright moonlight shone on the Santa Monica Commercial Plaza, as if even the street lights were suppressed. Alfred and Skdeel parked the car and entered the inside of the square without any hesitation. They walked directly into one of the imperial cinema chains without any hesitation. As student movie fans who did not need to work the next day, they could exert their vigorous energy on this Friday night.
For the group of movie fans, Alfred and Skdeel are still young people. Although they have grown up in the strong movie-watching atmosphere in North America since childhood and have watched many videos, they are just over 20 years old and are tired of the videos for children and want to watch movies that truly belong to adults.
Since we are watching the summer film, the two have very clear goals, which is the super commercial blockbuster that has just been released.
However, the two walked into the theater and looked at the two huge posters standing side by side at the main entrance, but were a little hesitant.
On the left is the poster of "Thor", including Chris Hemsworth and Natalie Portman, the man is strong and upright, and the woman is smart and beautiful, and they all look very attractive.
On the right hand is the poster of "City of Chaos". Henry Cavill stood proudly in front of New York City, his strong muscles and the scars after bloody battles, which touched their hearts like a blonde beauty.
Standing in front of the poster, Alfred asked Skdill, "Which should we choose?"
Skill scratched his head and said, "Remember the Iron Man we watched a few years ago? Marvel's superhero movies are really charming, and the heroine is Natalie Portman, an actor I like very much..."
"Yes, Marvel's superhero movies are really fascinating." Alfred watched Natalie Portman, and the Oscar winner seemed very charming, "Then let's choose "Thor."
After saying that, he was about to walk to the ticket window.
"etc!"
Before Alfred could walk away, Skdill called him, "We ignored an important message."
"What?" Alfred turned to look at Skdill, with a puzzled look on his face, "What have you ignored?"
Skill strode to the poster of "City of Chaos" and pointed to a line of eye-catching titles that they just ignored, saying, "The director of this film is Murphy Stanton! A director who has never made a bad movie!"
Alfred looked at Scott Deere's finger, "Is it Murphy Stanton, who directed "Man of Steel"? That best young director in Hollywood since the new century?"
"Yes, it's him!"
Although Alfred and Skdeel can only be regarded as young birds among fans, the resounding name Murphy Stanton has long been passed into their ears through various channels, especially "Body of Steel", which is simply a movie that has reached its peak!
“Go and check out the comments online.”
Alfred suggested that Skdeel took out his mobile phone and watched it on social networking sites and multiple movie rating websites in succession. "Thor" has a lot of negative reviews, and "City of Chaos" has received rave reviews!
"Go to his Thor."
Skdill, who had never had any opinion, suddenly made up his mind and said to Alfred directly, "Let's go to watch "City of Chaos". This film has received good reviews online, and it should be a good movie. "Thor" has too many bad reviews. Even if it's not a bad movie, it's still a very ordinary movie."
Alfred had no objection, "I like Murphy Stanton's "Man of Steel" in the movies I have watched."
The two of them bought tickets and walked into the theater and found that there were quite a few people watching "City of Chaos". At least half of them were full in the theater, which could accommodate more than 300 people. Since the film was still available, Alfred went to the adjacent theater where "Thor" was screened and watched it.
“There are not a few people over there.”
After returning, he said to Skandill, "It's nearly half of it. I don't know if the film is really as bad as it says."
It seems that many viewers still choose "Thor".
A man in his thirties next to him probably heard the conversation between the two and suddenly spoke, "A friend of mine is watching "Thor" there, but he said that most of the people who watch "Thor" now are comic fans."
"So that's how it is."
Alfred and Skdill nodded and asked, "Have you seen Thor?"
"No." The man shook his head and said, "There are too many negative comments on the Internet. Whether it is the imdb score or the freshness of rotten tomatoes, "Thor" is very poor. Such movies are basically watched by comic fans now."
He pointed to the big screen and said, "It's better to have this movie. I watched it in advance last night. Now this is the second time I've watched it. I'm sure I won't let you down!"
Watched it the second time? Hearing him say so, Alfred and Skdill put their hearts in their stomachs, thanked him, and waited patiently for the video to begin.
Soon, the film proved that the person said that this was a film that was definitely worth the fare, especially the action design in it, which made people shine.
It is not a fancy flirtatious fight that has been flooded in recent years, but a fierce fighting full of power, which looks more direct and fatal, giving people a strong sense of practical combat.
And Chris Dane's cool motorcycle, which is the favorite of everyone who likes cars.
Perhaps it was a coincidence that when the film ended, Alfred and Skrill happened to meet the next door "Thor" ended. Just as many people were talking about "City of Chaos" that they had just watched, the people who came out of that theater were also discussing "Thor".
The difference is that most of the voices who talk about "City of Chaos" are admiring, and those who talk about "Thor" are basically criticizing.
"Only those who like Marvel Comics can continue to watch it. Chris Hemsworth was paralyzed throughout the whole process, and Natalie Portman's performance was useless..."
"The plot progresses very dull, and there is no place for the war scenes to make people excited."
"There is no plot at all. I'm so tired. I always want to sleep."
"The plot starts and ends with a slight end, the relationship between characters is chaotic, the scene is inappropriate, the rhythm makes people drowsy, and the only thing that can leave a little impression is the soundtrack."
Hearing these comments, Alfred and Skdill couldn't help but feel a little lucky. They were undoubtedly a very correct choice for not watching "Thor".
