Going to the movies during the Chinese New Year has become a habit of Zhang Bufan in recent years, not that there is any particularly noble purpose such as taking the pulse of Chinese movies, it is purely that he likes to watch and pass the time.

Of course, sometimes when I see something particularly good or something particularly bad, I will also have some reflections, such as a phone call with Ning Hao and a face-to-face meeting, which is what we talked about.

However, in fact, what Zhang Bufan expects in his heart is that every movie can be good, so he has nothing to say.

Of course, he also knew that this was not a very practical wish.

Chinese film Spring Festival file, since the successful invasion of Lao Zhan's "Avatar", more and more foreign films have discovered the huge potential of this schedule, and they want to drill into it.

At the same time, while domestic film peers were shocked by the new box office highs of the Spring Festival again and again, they began to want more and more to squeeze their works into this schedule.

It's a pity that foreigners haven't figured out the psychology of the Chinese people, and finally several movies squeezed into the Spring Festival file don't match this schedule, so in the past few years after "Avatar", no foreign movie that can create such a horror in this schedule was born.

Compared with foreign countries, the filmmakers seem to be dazzled by the huge profit figures created by the Spring Festival schedule, so they are full of schedules and schedules, but they seem to have forgotten that the essence of the movie is still the story itself played on the big screen, if the story is not told well, it will be useless to give you a good schedule.

In the Spring Festival of 2012, the feedback on the above situation was particularly obvious.

Throughout the Spring Festival schedule, domestic films have shown a hundred flowers blooming as usual, and more than half of the big stars who can be named in the country have appeared in various movies, and foreign movies, such as "Sherlock Holmes" and "Mission Impossible 4" and other blockbusters have squeezed into this schedule.

However, the results are disappointing, whether it is from the box office performance or from word of mouth, it has not shown explosive growth as in previous years, and even declined.

That's right, if it weren't for the "support" of those two foreign blockbusters, the total box office of this year's National Day stalls would have really fallen compared to last year.

The reason for this is actually quite simple.

The movie is not good!

............

"I don't want to watch it!" these are the words of Tong Liya, who had just come out of the screening room.

Most of this year's Spring Festival movies were released on Chinese New Year's Eve, of course, there were also early, such as the "Eight Star Annunciation" they just watched.

It is no exaggeration to say that this can definitely be regarded as a classic IP, in 88 years, a comedy called "Eight Star Annunciation" was released, the film included a group of filmmakers with the biggest names in Xiangjiang at that time, including directors, screenwriters and actors, and achieved several outstanding results.

Since then, for a long time since then, movies with "Annunciation" and "Happy Events" as their titles and contents have appeared in the Chinese New Year files of the Xiangjiang film industry at a rate of almost one a year, and have always achieved good results.

Until 98 years, it was the most orthodox sequel to "Eight Star Annunciation", "Nine Star Annunciation", well, the orthodox sequel with the orthodox content of the name.

Xiangjiang has always had such a habit, once a movie is awesome, he will rush to make sequels and films of the same genre, and the "Cold War" that Zhang Bufan watched at the beginning is actually not the same type of film as "Infernal Affairs".

And the result is actually more and more clear every time, that is, the same kind will die.

"Eight-Star Annunciation" has achieved very good results, but in the future, the movies of the "Annunciation" and "Happy Events" are not as good as one, and they are ...... No, it's the time of "The Annunciation of the Nine Stars...... Forget it or don't talk about it.

Anyway, after entering the 21st century, this kind of comedy has basically become extinct, until the last few years, seeing the rise and explosion of the Spring Festival stalls, those Xiangjiang compatriots have begun to be active again.

So there are "Happy Events in the Family 2009" and "Happy Events in the Flower Field 2010", by the way, and the "New Eight Star Annunciation" that they just watched.

Something made in the name of a classic reproduction, but in fact, it is not as good as the movie 20 years ago, and it can be clearly seen that it is purely for the sake of making quick money, without the slightest sincerity.

This kind of thing, ordinary people will only feel bored and embarrassed when they see it, and for the two of them who are originally in this circle, it is even more extremely disgusting.

"Whew......" Zhang Bufan let out a breath, his face was also not very good, if some of the bad movies I watched before may have all kinds of understandable reasons, then the one I just watched is really a bit of an "unforgivable sin".

A bunch of superstars are piled up together, but such a thing is photographed, and the most that can be seen from it is that it is not serious!

The script is not serious, the director is not serious, and those stars are also not serious, everything is so perfunctory, as if Chiguodi is saying to the audience, "We are here to be the greatest gift to you, get the money!"

What's the difference between this and open robbery?

"Why don't you go back first?" Zhang Bufan said to Tong Liya.

"Do you still want to watch it?" Tong Liya was a little surprised, she was in such a bad mood by a movie, but she didn't expect Zhang Bufan to be so "persistent"!

"Sherlock Holmes 2 is also being released, and I want to go see it. Zhang Bufan said.

Tong Liya was stunned, and then said, "I'll accompany you." ”

She saw that Zhang Bufan no longer wanted to watch a movie to relax, he was so disgusted by the movie that he still wanted to relax, and next, he wanted to see something from that foreign movie......

Zhang Bufan nodded and didn't say much, went to buy two tickets for "Sherlock Holmes 2", and began to wait.

Soon the time came, and the audience began to enter the venue, looking at the team that was obviously more than the number of viewers of "The New Eight Star Annunciation", Zhang Bufan shook his head.

"The Great Detective" was released earlier than "The Annunciation of the Eight Stars", but now the number of people watching the movie is higher, which already says something.

For more than 2 hours, the two of them left the screening hall with the flow of people leaving, Zhang Bufan subconsciously glanced back at the big screen that was playing the production staff list, and his face became more and more unsightly.

He looked at Tong Liya and said with a wry smile: "I have always been unable to figure out where we are different from foreign countries, but after this comparison, I can understand that from the integrity of the script, to the performance of the actors, to the service of Huadao, etc., the difference is not ability, but an attitude!"
