Chapter 326 ** Movie
I feel sorry for the copyright of the previous work, but Hongdou is joking, completely because the whirlwind of "The Hunger Games" is so fierce that everyone is surprised. If you want to put a number of jΓΉ, the box office has not broken any records, whether it is the first day or the first week, there are still several blockbusters in front of it.
But that doesn't stop The Hunger Games from becoming a phenomenon, because the film's success factors are completely different from those that set records. Some of the success of the previous movies is because of down-to-earth stories, some are popular stars, and some are shocking and superb special effects......
These factors are not accounted for in "The Hunger Games", the visual scenes are not as good as Hollywood blockbusters, most of the leading actors are very unfamiliar to the audience, and the dystopian story is not down-to-earth.
In the past two years, the North American market has been sluggish, many blockbusters have not achieved the expected results, and although the domestic film market is still growing explosively, almost all of those who can win high box office are "laymen". The writer burrowed into the film industry to direct a movie, and swept away hundreds of millions with the fan effect, Zhang Qiuxi and they seemed to be entertaining themselves casually, and they could also roll away hundreds of millions.
This phenomenon seems to be a casual person who can make money by tinkering casually, but under this phenomenon, those big-name directors are pondering one after another, and the movies they make are hitting the street one by one, and they have also attracted a series of scolding.
= i.e. to sell, face outward. This is a phrase that has been handed down by street performers for many years, since they want to make this money. You have to accept the evaluation of others, but some people want to set up an archway when they are bitches, and they have to be mad when they make a bad movie and get scolded. People are big shots, how can ordinary people be qualified to comment, but they can't scold others, so they can always stop going to the movies, right?
This is not the case once or twice, and there was a great director who blamed the audience's level of appreciation, claiming that no one would be able to understand his film within five years, and now ten years have passed. A bad movie is just like a bad movie.
When these directors are depressed, the investors are also very distressed, although the film market of the Celestial Empire is extremely hot. But I am more and more aware of what kind of movies the audience likes. The industry is generally optimistic, and the blockbusters of big directors and big casts have hit the streets, and at the same time, many works with different styles have become box office dark horses.
"Hot Questions About Time Travel" and "Panic Formula" are two typical examples, but others can't learn this hand. Although the phenomenon of following the trend in the film and television industry is also very common. But big companies hardly think about learning to imitate, because they know they don't have that ability. As for the follow-up works of some small companies, they can't be on the table at all and can't attract any attention.
Since "Panic Fang", there have been three or five escape room movies released so far, but almost all of them are one-day trips to theaters, and no one has been able to emerge after being released quietly and disappearing quietly.
Some critics summed up the factors that contributed to the success of The Hunger Games. First there is a plot full of intelligence, then there are realistic hunting games and gorgeous fancy costumes. And then the latter point. Thanks to Shuguang Media's participation in the investment, Zhang Qiuxi combined ancient Hanfu and modern clothing when he wrote the novel, but the description was very vague, and there was no specific reference to make it up at all.
She changed the location of the story to the future Qinling Huaihe generation, which is more reasonable to describe the costumes, and Shuguang Media also spent a lot of effort to create those strange costumes, which can hardly be done by Warner Bros. alone.
The last reason is, of course, Zhang Qiuxi herself, although she has not participated in any work in the film, but being able to attract so much attention is inseparable from her influence.
After summing it up, it can be found that with women as the core of the story, the male characters are all called little fresh meat by female audiences, and the tragic story background is packaged in a love story.
The epic chick movie, this is the final evaluation of "The Hunger Games", and the phenomenal topic brought up by the excellent box office is the female consumer market. For a long time, movies have almost always focused on male consumption, and it is rare that there will be movies specifically created for women.
Even if it is a romance and idol film that female audiences like, they are essentially male-centric. The success of "The Hunger Games" has allowed filmmakers to see another possibility, in today's world where they don't know how to grasp the male consumer market, the female consumer market is obviously an export.
There is also a theme attached to it, that is, the youth genre and the teen market, and "The Hunger Games" can also be said to be a teen movie. And before the box office swept away hundreds of millions, the type of writers who played tickets was also youth, and when it was impossible to pile up blockbusters, it was best to develop genre films.
"The Hunger Games have opened up the second pulse of teen movies, needless to say, the person who wrote this article must be a martial arts fan, right?" Hongdou closed the newspaper and said: "We are still unprofessional after all, I didn't expect those filmmakers to see so many problems from the success of the Hunger Games, and now the debate about genre films is a bit indispensable." β
"Hollywood film genre is developed, no matter what genre there are many classics, but the country is a mess, gangsters can't make it, ghost movies can't be made, etc., how can it develop." Zhang Qiuxi habitually complained and said: "The situation has improved a lot in recent years, although there are still many restrictions, but at least some have been developed." β
The whirlwind of "The Hunger Games" is not only blowing in China, but also in the United States, but the main focus on the topic of the female consumer market on the other side of the planet is slowly shifting to the issue of genre films.
Shangguan Jin said: "I can't be too optimistic, it's good to be pioneering and enterprising, but according to the usual situation, it is estimated that it is a bunch of zuΓ² chick movies, full of too many bad movies to completely disappoint the audience, and then this genre is also completely messed up." β
"It seems to have been like this all along, and I still like to watch gambling movies, but the special facts that I filmed later are very funny." Ye Qingqing nodded sympathetically.
"It's not optimistic, but what's the matter with us?" Zhang Qiuxi came back to her senses, this is not something they should worry about at all.
Hongdou followed and said: "It's really groundless to worry about the sky, everyone is busy, how can you bring up this kind of topic if you are not idle." β
"Busy with what?" Zhang Qiu spread his hands, there was really nothing to be busy with now, and Hongdou was the same, so he could only say: "Then it's better to change the topic, for example, you can talk about split hair." (To be continued......)
