Chapter 68 Propaganda and Commentary

"Terminator 2" is like dropping a high-explosive bomb in the hot summer file, bringing a series of repercussions, starting from the next day, there are rare long queues at the doors of major popular theaters in the United States, most movie theaters are almost sold out, and many people can't buy tickets within the last two days, and have to book tickets in advance for a longer time.

The last time this situation occurred was when "The Sixth Sense" was released in 1990, and the momentum of "Terminator 2" has only increased compared to the beginning, in supermarkets, restaurants, on the road, in parks, there are people everywhere talking about this movie, talking about the future savior, talking about the showdown between T800 and T1000.

With the release of the movie in North America, all kinds of reviews have appeared one after another, such a hot movie, such a crazy momentum, how can those film critics miss the opportunity to get a piece of the pie.

"In the field of action movies on the big screen, there is no one who can compare to James Cameron, who not only shocks our senses with wonderful action shots, but also has a vision for the coexistence of grandeur and beauty behind one big scene after another, and through his excellent directorial talent, he turns those incredible ideas into reality and shows them in front of the audience's eyes, which is vividly expressed in "Terminator 2", with the muscular T800 of 18 wheels. But it has real and touching emotions, although it looks like a cold and hard machine, but it has a heart that belongs to a human being! ”

β€”Hal Sinson, The Washington Post

The famous film critic Roger Albert gave the film three and a half stars - the highest four stars - in a column in the Chicago Tribune, and he praised Arnold Schwarzenegger and Ryan Jenkins, saying that Schwarzenegger finally found the most suitable role and performance method for him, and Ryan Jenkins vividly portrayed a rebellious but childlike and kind little boy at heart.

Although the film was well received, and it was clearly a commercial production, and it didn't make any sense to talk too much about connotations and the like, there were people who opposed it for the sake of opposition, or to show that they were mavericks, so as to attract attention.

For example, a columnist for Time magazine described the film as a mountain of utopian dreams, leaving the audience with nothing but disappointment, and the movie has nothing to think about, whether it is James Cameron or Ryan Jenkins, it has brought an extremely bad work!

There are even film critics who want to take advantage of the popularity of "Terminator 2" and want to hype themselves, criticizing that except for the lightning and thundering action scenes and dazzling special effects, there is no need for anything else.

However, the film has caused widespread discussion in the industry, and George Lucas, one of the four major directors, wrote directly in the Los Angeles Times: "When the T1000 stepped out of the raging flames, it was not just a machine killer who was reborn from the ashes, not just a movie character, this is a revolution, about the revolution of the movie jishu, although there are not many special effects shots, but what Terminator 2 shows is worth exploring and thinking, from now on, Those pictures that can only exist in our imagination can be displayed on the big screen through special effects in the later stage! ”

As Ryan's third film image, John Connor has to be compared with Cole and Kevin, just like Roger Albert's evaluation of him, the praise accounts for almost 90 percent, and many film critics believe that aside from the cute and funny Kevin, only with Cole and John Connor, Ryan is enough to occupy a place in Hollywood film history.

Even, there are many media who put the title of Hollywood's all-time number one child star on Ryan's head.

"What? The number one child star in history? Xiexie's praise, but I don't think I deserve it, whether it's Shirley Temple or Jodie Foster, they're all better than me, aren't they? In an interview, Ryan firmly denied that he was not a fool, others said it didn't matter, and if he also admitted it with a big grin, then the title of arrogance, arrogance, and disrespect for his predecessors would be buckled on his head again.

Of course, Ryan's excellent acting skills, no one can deny.

"Ryan Jenkins once again showed his acting skills in "The Sixth Sense" after experiencing the nonsense performance of "Home Alone", his performance in "Terminator 2" dwarfed Linda Hamilton and Arnold Schwarzenegger, if it weren't for the self-termination of T800, this movie would have become his one-man show in terms of acting skills, in our opinion, commercial production can not allow Ryan to be fully played, his next step should be to turn to literary films, where is the battlefield for him to show his acting skills in the future!"

This is a review in The Hollywood Reporter that Ryan should have more artistic pursuits after experiencing the baptism of commercial films.

"Literary films? Hehe......" When Kinsley asked, Ryan only left a faint laugh.

This summer, Ryan is destined to spend time flying around, with a salary of $5 million and a 1% share of the North American box office, not only shooting, but also cooperating with the entire crew's publicity.

The crew split up and spent the next month traveling around major cities in North America, where he unfortunately became a big light bulb, as he was joined by James Cameron and Linda Hamilton.

Because it would be extremely inconvenient to take a passenger plane back and forth, the film company simply rented two business planes, just looking at the pair of men and women who were sitting opposite them, and after loosening the seat belt, Ryan couldn't help but protest.

"Hell! Linda, and Jim, this is on a plane, just a little space, you always have to worry about other people's feelings, right? Well, they're all adults and don't care, but don't forget, there's a minor sitting across from you! Ryan said dissatisfied.

"Are you a minor? Ryan, I never treated you like a child, so your protests are invalid. Linda still maintains an intimate posture with Cameron.

Ryan rolled his eyes helplessly, and before he could continue to protest, Cameron spoke again, "Hey, Ryan, tell us, do you have a girlfriend?" Rest assured, I won't tell anyone. ”

"I'm only eleven now!" Ryan's eyes widened.

"Eleven is already a big boy, and I had my first girlfriend when I was ten." Cameron said.

"Wow, that's big news." Ryan smiled brightly, "I believe the tabloid will definitely come up with a good price!" ”

There is nothing surprising about this kind of rush publicity, it is nothing more than being interviewed by reporters, appearing on a few programs, or breaking news to each other at a press conference to attract the public's attention.

Among teenagers, Ryan has amassed a huge popularity, and wherever he goes, there are a large number of crazy underage fans around him, which, to a certain extent, further drives the box office of "Terminator 2", after all, he now has an influence that Edward Furlong in his previous life simply could not match.

"Ryan~Ryan~"

Hundreds of teenagers in front of a hotel in Boston let out a burst of screams that blocked cars that had just arrived from the airport.

Ryan had no choice but to lower the window and wave outside, which resulted in even more frantic screams.

"Ryan ~ Signature ~ Ryan ~ Signature!"

I don't know who started it, but the shouts of fans are getting more and more uniform, and zuihou has turned into a pace.

This situation should be a common sense and should be liked by the crew, but Mario Casa and James Cameron's faces darkened a little after seeing what fans held in their hands.

Except for a few people holding up the poster of "Terminator 2", most of them are holding up Ryan's novels, singles, previous movie posters, etc., it can be said that he alone has suppressed the entire crew.

With the assistance of the hotel security, the car finally drove to the door of the hotel, and Ryan followed behind George, just getting out of the car, and the heat wave and screaming came from the shop, which made people can't help but feel a tingling of the scalp.

He had always known that he was popular among teenagers across the country, but he never imagined that his fans would be so crazy and enthusiastic, and now this situation did not allow him to stay here, and after signing a few names in a hurry, he hurried into the lobby of the hotel, and if he was surrounded by people, God knows when he will be able to get out.

Damn it! Ryan cursed in his heart, and in less than half a minute, his clothes and hair were messy with the bird's nest, and a few buttons on the placket were missing, could it be that he had met a female pervert?

"Ryan, if your fans don't go to theaters to watch Terminator 2, we're going to throw you in Boston!" Upon entering the elevator, Mario Casa made a joke.

To be honest, the film contract he gave to the other party at the beginning made him very painful, but with the release of "Home Alone", the Oscars and a series of events, he gradually found that this man was becoming more and more influential, and he couldn't help but sigh that James Cameron's decision to insist on signing him was extremely correct.

You must know that the main consumer group of the film market will always be teenagers, and Ryan's growing appeal in this group of people is bound to pull a considerable part of the movie-going crowd.

Of course, he can only think about it, with the other party's intelligence and maturity, I am afraid that it will be easy to see through his tricks, and this kind of thing that does not outweigh the losses is better than thinking less.

In addition to participating in a film event in a large theater, the crew also accepted a joint interview with local media, which can be regarded as building momentum for "Terminator 2" in the Greater Boston area.

Originally, Ryan also wanted to visit the famous Cambridge City, but seeing the overwhelming number of crazy fans at the event, he simply died of this.
