Actually, these critics are right, and compared to the other five companies' whimsical shooting ideas, the ending of the Disney movie is the best guess, because in the past few decades, they have only used one formula, and that is family fun.

Either good triumphs over evil, or the villain is finally whitewashed, and there can be no third outcome.

Take Maleficent, for example.

As a child, Maleficent is an innocent little fairy who grows up freely in the forest, until one day she meets the human boy Stefan, befriends him, and eventually falls in love; In order to obtain the throne, Stefan cut off Maleficent's wings one night and presented them to the king, and at the same time that his succession soared to the first place, Maleficent also blackened.

But these things did not matter to Stefan, and when he became king, he married his queen and had a daughter, and when the princess was born and the whole country celebrated, Maleficent, who had been hurt by Svante, came uninvited and cursed the little princess, saying that on her sixteenth birthday, she would fall into a permanent slumber because she touched the spinning wheel.

When the king confronted her why she did this, Maleficent gave the reason, 'I like to watch you beg me'.

So for the sake of his own child, the king knelt down and begged his lover who had been hurt by him to spare his daughter, and Mary Fisen kept her promise and gave a glimmer of life, saying that as long as the princess could get the kiss of true love, she would be able to wake up.

According to the routine in "Grimm's Fairy Tales", that is, the prince falls in love with the princess.

But Disney had to operate and whitewash Maleficent.

At the same time that he ordered the spinning wheel of the whole country to be burned, the king also asked the three fairies to take Princess Arlo to live in seclusion in the mountains and forests, and when the curse had passed, they returned, but the three fairies 'smoked, drank, and burned their hair' all day long, and could not take care of the children at all.

So, Princess Aurora was raised by Maleficent, who had been following her.

In the process of getting along, the cold Maleficent is softened by the cute child, tells her her story, and wants to lift the curse she has cast, but unfortunately, it backfires.

Arlo grew up as scheduled, curses followed, and the most surprising thing was that the prince's kiss was useless to her, and in the end, it was Maleficent's true love kiss that woke up Princess Auror, and with the help of Princess Auror, Maleficent regained her wings, killed the ambush set up by the king, and took Arlo back to the forest, living a happy life without shame.

Hiss......

Looking at it this way, Emperor Gong finally blocked the sword for Tianxian, isn't it a plot that is reasonable and logical?

For the audience, the elf queen's loli cultivation plan is an unexpected reversal!

But for film critics, this is the most normal Disney routine!

Therefore, there will be a situation on Rotten Tomatoes where the critics of "Mulan" have a higher score than "Creed".

Because the former can be understood, while the latter has a box office of only 9.4 million in the first weekend of North America.

Even with the intervention of the epidemic, the theater can only open half, and in the case of multiplying by two, the box office will still pull the hips.

After all, in this era, it is already the norm to break 100 million yuan in the first weekend, no matter how strong the influence of the outside world is, in the case of only one blockbuster in the same schedule, a one-fold box office is the root of Warner's reluctance to disclose it at all.

Because......

It's a shame.

It is precisely because of Disney's narrative style that people have left a deep-rooted concept of movie-watching, so when Anna, played by the Olsen sisters, and Jodie Foster's mother had a big fight, all the guests at the scene were waiting for a reversal.

When Anna's future stepfather proposed that everyone could put aside the dispute and go to a Chinese restaurant in Chinatown to relax and relax, the plot of the exchange of identities between mother and daughter was also arranged.

When the owner of the Chinese restaurant found that the mother and daughter who often came to the restaurant quarreled over some trivial things, she thoughtfully gave the cookies that could be transferred, and after opening them, the mother and daughter found that there was a text written on the note hidden in the cookie - 'A new journey is about to begin, the prize is hidden deep in each other's eyes, when you see your own shortcomings, selfless love can make you find yourself', and after they read this text, a brief earthquake belonging to the two of them occurred.

After that, the time came the next morning, because they used cookies with the mysterious power of the East, so the roles of the two were reversed, the mother became the daughter, and the daughter became the mother.

That's right, this is the East in Disney's eyes, or rather, this is the East that Disney is willing to show to the public.

Just as the Oriental people are all Chinese Kung-fu, in their opinion, the fact that all Orientals have mastered the terrifying skill of soul swapping, which should belong to witches, is also the truth that must be disclosed to the people of the world.

So, don't think that Li Lianjie's Fu Manchu makeup is just an accident.

Because Disney has done this countless times.

Relying on someone else's public opinion position to promote one's own culture is the real act of cerebral palsy.

And for the guests on the scene, this change is already a very obvious turning point -

"By swapping identities, let the daughter understand the hard work of the mother, and let the mother understand the helplessness of the daughter?"

"This kind of routine has been filmed badly! Disney still can't jump out of this box! ”

"Although the routine is a little old, the audience will change! Viewers in the past may have seen it, but how can children nowadays know? As long as the young people who go to see this movie think it is trendy, that's enough! ”

Yes, that's why Hollywood loves remakes of classics the most!

All classics can stand the test of time, and their success is traceable.

In this case, renovating classic old films every ten or twenty years and incorporating modern elements on the screen is actually the safest way to make money, as for the old audience, do you think it can't be?

So what?

Because the new audience is the target customer group of the film company!

This is also the reason why Hollywood's other five envy Disney.

The fairy tale IP in your hand is renovated every once in a while, and you can make a lot of money!

More than twenty years ago, you were watching "The Lion King" by yourself, and more than twenty years later, you are watching "The Lion King" with your children.

Maybe you think the remake is rubbish, but it doesn't matter because you've already contributed money three times.

And if you still want to wash your children's eyes, let them see the classics of '94......

That's it.

Maybe in another twenty years, it will be your child's turn to give your granddaughter Amway's "The Lion King".

When Anna and her mother's identities were reversed, the direction of the plot was also extremely clear.

After spending the adaptation period of role swapping with a pompous performance, the mother began to try to play the daughter, and the daughter tried hard to play the mother, in the process, both parties subconsciously transformed each other with their original thoughts, but when the mother found out that the reason why her daughter often took the F test was that the teacher who taught her daughter turned out to be the male classmate who had a crush on her in high school, and the other party gave her daughter F just in the hope that she could come to her daughter's parent-teacher conference, and the matter of the elders dying became the pain of the juniors. made the mother understand that she lacked care for her daughter.

And when the mother found out that the guy who often took the initiative to bully herself in her daughter's mouth was really a villain who was unforgiving, she was unreasonable and unwilling to listen to the preaching, which also made the mother embarrassed.

At the same time, the daughter also discovered that it is not easy for her mother in life.

Full of treatment arrangements, she was overwhelmed, and the tense life of being interviewed at any time made her give up thinking for a while, the degeneration of body organs, and the dizziness of her eyes also made her life inconvenient, and the most surprising thing for her daughter was that when she held a parent-teacher conference for her younger brother as a mother, she learned that her brother confided in his essay, saying that the person he admired the most was his sister, and the reason why he kept provoking her was entirely because he wanted to attract the attention of the other party, hoping that she could play with him. The girl who chose to rebel because of lack of love has also softened.

When the mother who was parasitic on her daughter's body found out that the little boy who liked her daughter would be attracted by her daughter's every move she showed through her body, she realized that her daughter had indeed found her own love.

It's not the daughter's face that this damn boy loves at all, it's her funny soul.

Similarly, when the daughter who was parasitic in her mother's body learned that her future stepfather was willing to give up the time for the wedding rehearsal to let herself participate in a more important band competition, she was also moved when she thought that this damn man had robbed her mother.

For the first time, she felt that this man who might become her stepfather was not bad.

In this case, taking out the note full of the mysterious power of the East again, the two understood the meaning of the phrase 'selfless love can make you find yourself', and after the daughter played the role of her mother and welcomed her stepfather to join her family, the earthquake that belonged to the two reappeared, and the mother and daughter were themselves again.

At the wedding, mother and daughter embraced each other.

"Thank you for everything you've done for me." Mom had tears in the corners of her eyes.

The daughter put her arms around her mother's neck, her eyes drooped, and she responded a little shyly, "I love you." ”

A response that doesn't count as a response is the best confession, the mother stares at her daughter and opens her heart, "I love you too." ”

The plot of Disney movies is not complicated, after all, it is for children......

The heartwarming ending is the finishing touch, just like defeating the Lunatic Master with 'Love Unlimited', even if there is no censorship, Disney still has to convey the company's brand image - truth, goodness and beauty to children.

As the lights turned on, there was also familiar applause in the venue, although the movie is very old-fashioned, the laughter is very ordinary, and the preaching is very strong, but even so, it cannot be denied the fact that it is a qualified commercial film.

Not to mention, the boss, which is bigger than the Disney production team, is listening to them below.

In the celebratory applause, the main creative team also came to the stage to salute, and when it was over, the staff also moved to the sofa and told everyone about the production process of the film directly on the spot, and the first to speak was Dick Cheney, the chairman of Disney Studios.

"A remake of the 1977 film was Roland Allen's proposal. When he told us that we could try to make a film that showed the generation gap between teenagers and their parents, we were very hesitant, because there are too many movies about the contradictions of growing up, and even his own debut "Home Alone" series is also this genre. ”

"But after Roland said the idea of swapping identities between mother and daughter, the idea of letting mother and daughter experience each other's difficulties firsthand was very interesting to us, because this is something that many people dream of when they are young."

"When we were teenagers, when we had all kinds of conflicts with our parents but were not understood by the other party, how we longed to be able to pull our parents to witness what happened to us, and when we became parents, we wanted our children to know how hard our daily life and work were, and hoped that they could be quiet."

"The real contradictions that happened to us led us to make this film."

"We don't expect this film to be accepted by everyone, but as long as there is a mother-daughter, father and son, after watching the movie, they can empathize and make changes, that is the most meaningful thing."

'Oops! ’

Hearing this, Roland wanted to laugh.

Obviously, the purpose of making movies is to make money, but when it is promoted, it pulls the banner of humanism and seeks tiger skin.

What's the difference between this and shutting down WeChat while emphasizing the free market?

After Dick Cheney finished speaking, the film's director, Mark Waters, also spoke.

"This is my second film, and I'm excited to be working with Ashley and Mary."

"When I got the script, I was skeptical that this kind of family-friendly classic comedy could end up in my hands, and it wasn't until I learned that it was because Roland Allen, who provided the idea, was also a 'newbie', that I realized what kind of opportunity I had gotten, after all, his achievements are obvious to all, and what he likes must be what the audience likes......"

'Oops! ’

'Don't blow don't blow! ’

Roland, who was staying at the bottom, smiled and shook his head, because he knew that he was climbing up by hugging his thighs.

But when the director turned the fire on Roland, it was no longer possible for the guys on the scene to 'ignore' him, laughing and applauding, countless eyes continued to converge from all directions.

No way!

Because this is the real capitalist!

Microsoft's series of hammer blasting operations were provoked by him, compared with the entertainment projects that have invested tens of billions of dollars, this master is now playing in a 100-billion-level market, and how many of the media present are watching his face to attend?

Otherwise, just a Disney family movie wants to attract hundreds of reporters in the industry?

Isn't this a fool's dream?

In the past, the people who put the most emphasis on beep would not even look at this kind of movie with a straight eye, but now......

The core of "Hot Mom and Hot Girl" is the most connotative youth movie in recent years' has been established by them!

Ay!

The face fruit given by the banknote ability is so easy to use!

Since both parties have a tacit understanding, the production introduction did not last too long, and after briefly explaining the birth process of this film, the rest of the time was handed over to reporters by the producer and asked them to ask questions on their own.

The idea is simple: let the media make their own headlines so as not to crash.

In this case, magazines such as "Variety" and "Empire" that pay attention to beep start from the generation gap between teenagers and parents, and ask a few questions that emphasize family harmony, while various newspapers surface and ask interesting stories about the shooting of comedy clips.

But when they asked around, and the entire media exchange meeting could be over, these media raised their hands one after another, and gave their doubts very intimately, "That...... Based on what we've just learned, we can write a good manuscript, but if we send it out like that, it's only decent at best. ”

"Because all the content is a movie introduction, and there is no exciting news related to the leading actors, after the public reads our manuscript, the concept of 'ah, the Olsen sisters have a new movie' appears in their minds at most, and then it is 'Ah, the Olsen sisters' new movie has been praised by many professionals', and other than that, there is no other eye-catching content."

"So, can you provide a little more information?"

"The news of your new movie will be remembered by the public."

"After all, we can't make things up, can we?"

Such words made everyone at the scene laugh.

This is the paradise of the rich.

If it were replaced by other actors, these media would have made it up by themselves a long time ago, but what about the Olsen sisters......

No one has trouble with their work.

But breaking the news is such a thing, sometimes you really can't write it scribble, even if you blow it, you have to blow the fact that it has happened, otherwise, when the mobile Internet era comes, those idle guys will let celebrities know what cruelty is.

And the Olsen sisters in this life really don't have anything to do.

The family is harmonious, the life is happy, he is busy with work, and he is not in love.

At this time, even if they are matched with the male protagonist in the play, it will not have any publicity effect, so when this serious problem appeared, the two little guys sitting in the center of the stage suddenly set their eyes on their old brother.

"That'...... Why don't you just write that Ashley and Mary try to play the role of mother in this movie, and their acting skills improve by leaps and bounds? Roland, who was about to come to the microphone, gave the surrounding reporters an idea.

However, denials poured in.

"This topic is too ordinary!"

"That's right! Emphasizing acting is not a topic for them! ”

"That's right! Ashley and Mary are both idols, blindly emphasizing acting skills, and may be criticized by the audience. ”

Upon hearing this explanation, Roland pursed his lips and gave another idea.

"That'...... Or you can write that Ashley and Mary broke the news at the premiere that they are not going to make a movie? ”

It's a pity that this breaking point is still not recognized by the media.

"The problem is, this isn't their last movie!"

"Yes! We can't advertise it with the penultimate part, right? This one is too deliberate! ”

"Yes, yes, yes! Ashley and Mary's fan base, while large, is nowhere near as loyal as your fans! If they are really hyped with this kind of title, then they will probably be ridiculed by countless audiences! ”

The second wave of opposition made Roland frown.

This is not to express dissatisfaction with the media, but that he can't think of a good publicity gimmick.

After all, unlike his films, the Olsen sisters' films were not shot on the cusp of technological development, and in the absence of absolute superiority, no matter which point they blow, they will cause criticism.

And just when Roland was pondering whether to publicize it or not, he suddenly remembered the end of the movie.

So, full of inspiration, he snapped his fingers and commanded the scene.

"Ashley, Mary, Dick, all come down and sit down again."

"Pull the movie to the end, which is when Anna's mother and the man she loves get married."

"Hold up your own cameras and shoot them! Shoot it right in your seat! ”

"Don't turn off all the lights later, leave two walkway lights to provide them with a light source."

"And the report, that's it—"

"The main title is: [At the premiere of "Hot Mom and Hot Girls", Roland Allen and Kate Winslet kissed passionately].

"The subtitle is: [Asked about the reason, they blew up their marriage date is approaching].

"As for the pictures, it's up to you!"
