"Knights & Sorcery" is now screened!

For many film critics, Knights is purely going through the motions, which shows that this is a commercial film, and it is also a commercial film adapted from a game.

Therefore, most of the film critics who came received red envelopes, otherwise, there are really not many professional film critics who are interested.

Well, "Knights and Magic" itself is a film in a more awkward position.

Why?

There have been a lot of games adapted from movies in recent years, but the real success is rare, and many times, it is even unflattering inside and out.

Games and movies, after all, are two different carriers, and many times, it may be easier to convert audiences into players, but it is more difficult to convert players into movie audiences.

The publicity of "Knights and Magic" was really strong before, coupled with the cooperation of the game development company, and it coincided with the 20th anniversary, so it invisibly gave many players very high expectations.

Everyone has their own scale in their hearts, and for ordinary audiences, they don't care what you are adapted from when they watch movies, but more about watching the movie itself.

For players, what they like to see is the kind of scene and plot they imagine.

This leads to a paradox, what players like, is definitely what they know, and what the average audience likes, is starting from scratch because they don't know what the game is and don't care about it.

So how do you balance the two groups of audiences?

This is actually the biggest problem for many fans to the movie.

Normal audiences watch movies, that is, they watch the plot of the movie and how the story of the movie is told, but fans are different, and they will have other requirements.

For example, "Knights and Magic", when players watch the movie, they will have a sense of superiority over the ordinary audience, so they prefer that the movie is really made according to the game, but if it really satisfies these player audiences, then the ordinary audience will definitely be very unhappy, because they don't understand the game, so it is very likely that there will be a situation that they can't understand!

Yes, I just can't read it!

What kind of movie is Knights & Magic?

Lin Xiao and Gu Xi both said that they couldn't understand it!

Gu Xi was a little excited, and said to Lin Xiao: "I don't understand it." What about you?"

"No, you don't understand, what are you excited about?" Lin Xiao said speechlessly.

"I don't understand, doesn't it mean that most ordinary viewers will also feel this way?" Gu Xi said playfully.

"But don't forget, the film itself is a fan-oriented movie, and Knights & Magic has an extremely large player base on the ball, so if those players are willing to support it, the film won't be a box office low. Lin Xiao was not so optimistic, but said.

Fans want movies, many times, they will make those who like them especially like it, and those who don't like it especially hate.

"Fuxk, what the hell is this!" At this time, some viewers couldn't help but scold.

But you must know that the audience who can come to the premiere, but senior fans, even scolded them, which has to be surprising.

"Can anyone tell me why the Templars and the Grand Mage can't beat Opec when they join forces?"

"The first mini-boss has become so powerful, and the Templars and archmages are so weak, what the hell is this?"

"I was looking forward to it, but now, what the hell is this shooting?"

Why do movies value word-of-mouth?

It's because movies are never a one-shot deal!

Maybe because of the publicity, because of the hype, it will attract some audiences to buy tickets to watch it as soon as possible, which will promote the box office in the early stage, but once the word-of-mouth is not good, then the follow-up will affect more audiences.

This is also the reason why the movie had to play a big word-of-mouth card in the early days.

"Knights and Magic" From Lin Xiao's point of view, although some points are not too clear, but in fact, this film, in terms of special effects, is passable, and the special effects are indeed very good.

But the story is really not very good, or rather, there are many things in it that Lin Xiao can't understand.

For example, the level of the magician, what kind of level of existence is the great magician, Lin Xiao can't figure it out, if you want to say that he is the top combat power, but why can't he even hold up for a round?

Secondly, "Knights and Magic" tells the story of the emergence of spatial rifts in the world, the invasion of the undead and orcs, and the protection of the home by human philosophers and knights.

It stands to reason that this story is a very simple story, but "Knights and Magic" devotes a lot of space to the world of the undead and orcs in the front.

Lin Xiao probably understands the director's intentions, maybe he wants ordinary audiences to understand it, but the key is that although the length is not short, there are too many things to be introduced, so it makes people watch it even more foggy.

And for players, they will think, what kind of bullshit is this, why are you introducing so many villains?

And many of these things are contrary to the game's setting.

In short, probably for the sequel, the villain is a little more powerful than imagined, and the weak chicken of the human is also beyond imagination.

What's even more nonsense is that in the end, it is actually that mankind loses! is withdrawn, and the world is turned upside down.

Yes, that's the setting of the game, but it's hard to get used to when you put it in the movie.

Of course, what everyone wants to see is that human beings can win, but after fighting for a long time, as a result, the strong men of human beings are all hexagrams, what the hell is this?

Evil triumphs over good?

The background of "Knights and Magic" is that the undead world invaded the orc world, the orcs were forced to relocate, and the orc high priest used the teleportation circle and spatial rift to come to the human world.

The survival of the human world has been challenged, and in order to protect their homeland, humans have begun to wage war against the orcs.

Then, after invading the orc world's home, the undead followed the passage opened by the orcs and found the human world as well.

Thus, the erosion and invasion of the human world began!

Eventually, humans and orcs had to join forces against each other!

The background is simple, isn't it?

But in the movie, it is the undead and the orcs who join forces to attack the humans.

Of course, this is also one of the plots of the game, anyway, in the game "Knights and Magic", every expansion, you will hit me, I will fight you, and indeed in a certain version, the orcs and the undead are united.

However, the background of the game, to be honest, really doesn't matter that much, most people play the game just because of the gameplay of the game, rather than caring about the story background of the game.
