Chatty Hollywood - Chapter 824
“…”Inception” is a very clever movie, rich in details and intricate narrative, which brings people into a subconscious labyrinth.”
“——This is the evaluation of Variety Show.”
“As for the “Empire” magazine, it is said that “Inception” and “The Matrix” are similar in different ways to the same purpose—”
Having said that, Charlize looked at Charlotte, who was still stroking his stomach, with a little shame, before continuing.
“According to their comments, the anti-physics discussion, the wonderful action scenes, the impactful emotions, and the amazing performances of your director and actor are all fascinating.”
“This is a whole new field of Charlotte movies!”
Charlize deliberately used his accent,
“—Anyway, that’s what they said.”
“Yes?”
Charlotte nodded.
“In this way, the media evaluation should be very good!”
“more or less!”
Charlize nodded.
“However, it’s not that there is no objection at all—”
With that, she made a grimace at Charlotte, who was still stroking her belly.
“The explanation shows that too many worldviews are constrained by ethics, the character charm is too shallow and lacks in-depth shaping, and pretending to be profound is dizzying.”
“–“The New York Observer” commented so and gave the movie a low score.”
Having said that, Charlize paused on purpose, wanting to whet Charlotte’s appetite.
However, the latter did not move.
This allows the South African girl to understand how strong her husband’s confidence in this work is.
And thinking of everyone’s hard work during the shooting of “Inception”, the large number of new technologies used in the film, and the wonderful story, Charlize felt that this was actually a natural thing.
“Except for the grandstanding “New York Observer”, most of the media’s evaluations are still very positive or even very high.”
Charlize said sternly,
“After all, this newspaper is a minority among the minority. We can see this from the IMDB score and the freshness of the Rotten Tomatoes website–“
“I also watched this.”
Charlotte interrupted his wife with a smile.
“9.4 points, this is the highest score I have ever scored on IMDB, it is worth remembering!”
“It’s not just memorable! This is also one of the best in the overall score ranking of IMDB, OK!?”
Charlize murmured.
“Even the old movies like “The Godfather” or “Shawshank’s Redemption” are regarded as gods by fans, the IMDB score is just hovering around this score, and many times it is less than this score!”
“Now it is!”
Charlotte shrugged.
“For this reason, Inception has temporarily taken the first place in the IMDB rating.”
“Unfortunately it’s only temporary.”
Charlize shook his head.
“The ratings of most movies will gradually decrease as the movie’s release time becomes longer.”
“That’s right!”
Charlotte nodded.
“However, even if it’s only a temporary number one, it’s not bad-after all, none of the movies I made before have scores that high in IMDB.”
This is indeed the case.
Although from the beginning of “Fatal Bend”, Charlotte’s film divisions have been selling at the box office, and the audience’s reputation and even the reputation of film critics are generally good, but its previous works have become more and more influential in IMDB in recent years. The film review website is still tepid–
The score is not low, but there is always a lack of ranking top10.
Of course, the top 10 movies are basically very classic movies, and it’s not a problem if they don’t rank.
But Charlotte was still a little dissatisfied.
And this time “Inception” rushed to the top 1 of IMDB, even if it was only temporary, it made him feel satisfied…
In fact, it’s not just Charlotte who got his mind—
From the release of “Fatal Bend” in 1994, Charlotte has been a director in Hollywood for the 10th year.
This allowed him to accumulate a large number of **** movie fans, and even some professional film critics, such as Kenneth Turan, are also his fans.
In the eyes of these people, it is really uncomfortable that none of Charlotte’s movies can enter the top 10 of IMDB.
However, IMDB’s mysterious scoring algorithm left them helpless.
It was not until this time that “Inception” broke out completely and directly rushed to the first place in the IMDB score, which made everyone suddenly excited.
“That’s right!”
In the shared apartment, Emily talked to Jaina while looking at the computer screen.
“The plot, pictures, special effects, scenes, performances, rhythm control and even music of “Inception” are all top choices. If such a movie can’t make it to the top 10 of IMDB, it must be a problem with the website itself! “
“But the fact is that Inception has a high IMDB score, so the website is okay?”
Rarely, Jaina and Emily exchanged the relationship between complaints and being complained.
——Although after Emily’s “missionary”, Jaina is now also a big fan of Charlotte, but to the extent of “iron”, she still can’t keep up with Emily, who is astonishingly dynamic.
Although she is also concerned about the reputation of “Inception”, she is more interested in the plot of the movie itself——
“In the end, did that top fall? Director Charlotte, no, did Cobb return to his home in reality?”
“Well…”
Emily stroked her chin.
“I think he should have gone back, but…”
Emily couldn’t help frowning.
As a veteran movie fan who started watching movies with her dad who opened a video rental store since the age of three, Emily’s ability to interpret film language far exceeds that of a white movie fan like Jaina.
However, because of this, although she has seen many details from the story of Inception, and thus interprets the conclusion that “Cobb has returned to the real world”, she is not completely sure.
——Because if you refer to some other details, it seems that you can interpret a completely different ending.
“It’s like “Rashomon”, or maybe there are a thousand Hamlet in the eyes of a thousand people?”
Emily thought distressedly.
Fortunately, as an activist, Emily quickly thought of a way–
“What should I do if I don’t understand the movie I like? Then watch it again! You can’t do it twice…”
Jaina didn’t object to this.
*******
In fact, like Emily and Jaina, because of their different interpretations of the movie, there are not a few fans who go to the cinema to go to the second or even third or fourth movie soon.
——This can be regarded as a further confirmation of the saying that “every Charlotte film is worth a second brush.”
And the Internet is quickly filled with a lot of analysis of “Inception”——
Among them, the interpretation of the ending can be said to be the most.
There are many different opinions, coupled with some powerful data emperor and Xueba analysis, even many people who were not interested in this movie were attracted to the movie theater.
——Then they were also “trapped” in the “magic dreamland” of “Inception”.
Naturally, in the comments on the Internet, there is the navy of the Ghost Party Studio.
——As a traveler, Charlotte will not fail to realize the importance of online word-of-mouth publicity.
In particular, after acquiring North American film distribution capabilities, Ghost Party Studios also specially strengthened its online publicity department in order to highlight its own characteristics.
Under this circumstance, the commercial masterpiece directed by the studio owner Charlotte himself is released. How can the navy of the Ghost Party studio not help it?
However, Borokov, the head of the navy department, who was given an “Admiral” by Charlotte, discovered that he did not actually need to contribute too much to the promotion of Inception-
After publishing some introductory posts on the Internet, Porokov suddenly discovered that “Inception” quickly emerged with countless “tap water” and naturally took over Porokov and their original work.
——So, Porokov and the Ghost Party studio “Navy” under his leadership did not need to do almost anything, and they lay down to complete their tasks.
“It would be great if every movie promoted was like this!”
Porokov sighed in his heart.
Of course, he also knew that it was impossible.
——Not all movies are “Inception”, and not all directors are Charlotte Booth!
But at least, Porokov can relax for a while now.
“The IMDB score is 9.4, and the Rotten Tomatoes Index is 93%, which is quite a good result!”
Porokov thinks that he only needs to be careful not to be discredited and disturbed by others…
*******
Of course, if you say one thousand words and ten thousand, a good reputation will eventually be transformed into a tangible box office performance before a movie can be considered a success.
As in “Shawshank’s Redemption”, it is difficult to say whether it is a pitfall for film participants to recover the cost by offline income 25 years after its release and achieve profitability.
——Of course, considering the usual way of accounting by Hollywood studios, this may be a bit exaggerated, but there is no doubt that “Shawshank’s Redemption” did not make much money.
In contrast, Charlotte’s film is a completely different situation-
“The first day’s box office was 60 million dollars!?”
Although I have long guessed that “Inception” will have a good box office performance~www.mtlnovel.com~, Charles Rowan still did not expect to be so good.
“This has surpassed the box office results of most of the hit movie sequels!?”
As the producer of Warner’s docking “Inception”, Charles Rowan has seen a lot of box office data from major productions. It may reach this number, but it is also very small.
“Charlotte Booth’s appeal is really powerful! It’s more effective than many big-name stars!”
However, through statistical data, Charles Rowan found a problem——
As an original film, the film “Inception” can achieve such unimaginable results, in fact, there is an additional help.
——That is the IMAX big screen!
