Bryant and Katie are the best examples, they have their own opinions, refuse to back down, but it is extremely difficult to convince each other, the evidence is increasing, but the more and more confused, before watching the movie, no one seems to be able to refute the other in a categorical way, but there is no way to insist that they are right.

However, this does not affect the continued heating up of the controversy. The "Today" debate is just the tip of the iceberg, with 7.6 million viewers on this episode, the second time since the beginning of the 21st century that ratings have crossed the 7 million threshold, the last being a special program on the White House's declaration of war on Iraq; What is even more terrifying is that at this time, more than 67 television programs in the United States have chosen "Fury Road" as the topic, and more than 400 radio programs have chosen this hot topic, not to mention the many newspapers and magazines, and even university professors, human rights groups, and sociologists have joined this discussion, expressing their own opinions, trying to analyze the truth of the "Fury Road", and even trying to analyze the scene of gender discrimination hidden behind the "Fury Road" incident.

There is no doubt that the "Fury Road" has become the focus of attention in the entire American society.

More profound than the question of whether the "road to rage" is masculine or feminist is why this debate arises. Is equality between men and women really achieved? Is sexism really gone? Is it true that masculinity does not discriminate against women? Is feminism really not excessive? Is the difference between men and women really resolved? Has political correctness really eradicated discrimination once and for all? If that's the case, what's going on with the gay discrimination caused by Brokeback Mountain last year? What about the cases of racial discrimination, which have been increasing in recent years? In the context of cultural integration, discrimination is becoming more and more serious, what is going on?

Returning to the "furious road", is this film a resurgence of Hollywood masculinity, or is feminism breaking the shackles of the film industry for the first time? Is this the progress of the times, or the regression of society? What kind of impact will the film have?

All the arguments can't stop at all, like dominoes, a gentle push, all the questions burst out, as if all the issues are just a movie, but not just a movie.

With the entry of feminism into the battle, the whole debate became more and more chaotic, in addition to Gloria, another famous feminist Germaine-Greer (Germaine-Greer) launched a sit-in demonstration, she called on more than 100 women, at 3 p.m. local time on Sunday, the United States collectively took off their shirts, took off their underwear/clothes, and sat cross-legged in Times Square in New York City with their upper body to protest and refute masculinism with practical actions.

The sit-in, which lasted three hours, attracted more than 300 media outlets to the scene for interviews, and in the course of his conversation with reporters, Jermaine was so fierce that he almost got into a fight: "So, it's all the woman's fault, just like in the past few centuries, the man can't find a job, that's because the women are out to work; Men are too stressed, and that's because women don't take good care of them; Men's families are not perfect, and that's because women don't do their housework well. All of it, it's because of women. Haven't men done self-reflection? In the workplace, you can't compete with women, isn't it because you are stupider than women? With the same pressure in life, you are the first to collapse, isn't it because you are more mothersy than women? The family isn't perfect enough, are you sure it's not because you're obsessed with prostitutes/girls outside? Now, even a movie that uses a female character as the protagonist has to blame the woman, and even caused such an exaggerated controversy! So, this is what you call social progress? Is this what you call a feminist victory? Should all women revolve around men? Absurd! Amusing! Stupidity! Lamentable! Cheap! ”

Jermaine has always been known for her sharp words and sharp views, and her radical views have led to a lot of controversy, but apparently, this has not affected her style, facing the huge team of reporters in front of her, "Look at you, look at yourselves, there are only three female reporters here, this is where we are now, how ironic!" In just one sentence, Jermaine succeeded in making all the reporters present blush, but she obviously hadn't finished speaking, "Now, it's just a movie where the heroine shows the same ability as the male lead, and the men are frying the pot?" This is the real shame! You don't even have the courage to accept that a woman has the same strength as a man, even in a movie, in a fictional movie, in your eyes, women are your vassals, your fertility machines! I think, the most ridiculous thing is, you think you're the villain in the movie, right? It's just a machine to use women as their own heirlooms! How similar, how similar! But you don't know that such a self is the most ridiculous, you deny the value of a woman's existence, which is equivalent to denying the value of your own existence! This makes you look like a bunch of stallions in heat but can't find a way to vent, and can only run wild and roar in the barren mountains and mountains, like wild beasts. ”

Jermaine's argument sparked an unimaginable frenzy of discussion - it was the first time that someone had linked masculinity to the immortal old Joe, but when you think about it, it seems, seems, maybe, probably...... It's a bit similar, and things suddenly get interesting.

"Regardless of whether the film is feminist or not, the fact that men can't wait to jump out just because of a movie is in itself the best proof of sexism!" Jermaine summed herself up with a loud voice, her opinion was slightly different from that of Gloria, apparently, she was not interested in the film itself, and probably did not plan to watch it, but she disagreed with the controversial topic itself, and just these words strongly condemned the "controversy", pushing the whole discussion to a higher level, and everyone was in a collective uproar.

Things have begun to get out of control, and now it is not something that Lance or Chaos Pictures can control, nor can Warner Bros. and Disney control together, and the Hollywood reality reflected by the controversy caused by "Fury Road" is becoming a social issue that has attracted everyone's attention.

Even at the regular press conference of the White House, reporters could not help but raise the topic of "Fury Road". However, the George W. Bush administration obviously does not want to respond to this for the time being, first, because the problem is too thorny, and second, because "Fury Road" is just a movie, and after the official response, the matter is really serious, so the press spokesman just resisted it with an official response of political correctness, probably "We support women's rights", "Gender discrimination is absolutely not tolerated", "I haven't watched the movie for the time being, I have no right to speak", etc., trying to keep the controversy outside the government/government.

But apparently they couldn't do it, because things were getting bigger and bigger, like a snowball, and now there was an avalanche that no one could stop by the forces of nature.

Everyone is looking for the person involved in the incident, Lance.

So far, reporters have not had time to interview Lance's feelings, Charlie Sheen had a hard time at the premiere of "Banshee in the Water" on Wednesday, and fermented on Thursday and Friday, but at that time the matter was not serious, and Lance, who was in the publicity period, was not mentioned in related issues; When things started to get a big start on Saturday, Lance arrived in Las Vegas to participate in the promotion, but he declined a reporter's request for an interview, saying he needed to focus on the show, and then ...... Then Lance vanished, all phones were turned off, all contact was cut off, and even Percy said he couldn't be contacted - of course, no one could tell if Percy's words were true or false.

Even the top and bottom of Chaos Pictures and the crew of "Fury Road" are silent inside and out, not making conservative remarks, but refusing to make remarks, as if in the midst of this controversy, they have all decided to protect themselves. This kind of silence, in the eyes of outsiders, is a manifestation of "weakness of heart", which adds fuel to the fire and makes the discussion of the controversy heat to a higher level.

All the paparazzi across the continent were looking for Lance, and even ordinary residents were curious about the whereabouts of the focal point, and the San Francisco Chronicle even came up with a theory, "Could it be that Lancelot Strello followed in the footsteps of Roman Polanski?" ”

Roman was accused of raping an underage girl, and before the court pronounced the verdict, he fled the United States and is still wanted by the United States. The "San Francisco Chronicle" is obviously also satirizing Lance's escape and tacitly acquiescing guilty, but this remark has been severely accused by public opinion, Lance and Roman's behavior is not the same nature at all, this analogy is not only irresponsible, but also misleading the audience, which is really unworthy for an authoritative media.

Subsequently, Theodore Strello officially announced that he would sue the San Francisco Chronicle for defamation and insults.

Before receiving the lawyer's letter, the San Francisco Chronicle published an apology letter under pressure from public opinion, and Brian Barlow, the journalist who wrote the article, publicly apologized. However, there is no word on whether Lance will accept the apology - because he still hasn't shown up.

By the time the paparazzi found Lance resting and adjusting in Palm Springs according to the tip, it was already July 25th, in other words, the weekend box office in the third week of July in North America had already been released.

The stormy "Fury Road" seems to have been cut off, the menacing "Banshee in the Water" seems to take advantage of the situation, and the steady "Pirates of the Caribbean 2" seems to be reaping the benefits of the fisherman...... The box office trend of this year's summer file is really full of suspense, and the energy that failed to erupt in May and June was all concentrated in July to usher in the volcanic eruption, but when people saw the box office list, they collectively became dumb.
