Chapter 262: Another Genius

"Mom, am I so beautiful?"

"Of course, baby. ”

The "Exorcism Video" was about to run out on the big screen, and the packed screening room was silent, and Oldenberg, who was sitting in the front row, was watching the reaction of the film critics around him...... There seemed to be a faint sound of sobbing.

This is a critics' screening that Lionsgate is hosting for TET. Because there are new films throughout the year, screenings are held by inviting reservations, especially for mainstream film critics. So today's screening of the horror film "Scarlet Moon", which was originally released by Lionsgate in June, was temporarily changed to TET, and "Scarlet Moon" was postponed.

But doing so doesn't guarantee that everyone will continue to come, after all, "Scarlet Moon" is a regular movie, and TET is not.

As a result, not only did there be no less, but there were many more, and hundreds of film critics filled the entire screening hall ......!

Just because those three perfect score film reviews have alarmed the film critics community a little and aroused strong interest from people, including Roger Albert. It also includes many non-mainstream film critics, small media, online new media, and popular blogs......

The surrounding gang can cover all the low, middle and high-end audiences of young people, young people, middle-aged and elderly people, as long as they like to watch movie reviews and pick movies, they will be affected. Once it can be certified by their praise, it will have a very big boost to the box office of the film, especially Roger Albert!

Odenberg was nervous about Albert's attendance.

Albert, who is known to be a Catholic, educated in a church school, has never hidden his clear stance on religious films, and he does not like films that are ignorant and insulting to Catholicism, such as "Stigmata", which also talks about demonic possession but insults Catholicism, which he ridiculed (2/4, and gave two stars because "mainstream audiences would think it was a terrible horror movie"), and he often praised controversial films about Jesus and Catholicism.

Like "The Passion of the Christ" (4/4), "The Last Temptation of Christ" (4/4), and "The Exorcist" (4/4), its sequels and prequels are so bad that he just doesn't say anything.

Oldenburg was nervous about whether the congregation felt offended, because the ending looked like God had failed to save Maggie. The answer lies in Albert's view.

From the beginning to the present, Odenberg's nervousness is becoming less and less, and there are more and more surprises, and the critics are fascinated by the opening scene, and the audience is terrifyingly silent, without screaming loudly, but there are some silent exclamations. Then, a soft sniff sounded, and a female cry that could not be swallowed......

"Hello Dark, my old friend"

When the ending song sounded, his eyes were wet, was it because there was a special atmosphere in the theater? Or did he change the mentality of "this is a good movie" to watch it?

How could you have despised such a ......movie before!?

Oh dear! At this time, the surprise in Oldenberg's heart overshadowed a qiē emotion, and he didn't run, and the praise of the film critics of the tet didn't run!

I saw Albert, who was sitting two seats next to him, with old tears on his face, wiping his eyes without taking off his glasses, and his eyes were still fixed on the screen, not knowing what to think.

It's not just him, it's Richard Rope, USA Today's Mike Clarke, and the San Francisco Chronicle's Mikla Saar...... Everyone was obviously immersed in the grief brought by the screen, they listened to the ending song and looked at the credits, no one applauded, but they were already pounding their hearts as Viy said!

When the cast was over, the screening room began to stir, and suddenly there was thunderous applause, and the critics stood up and clapped their hands with mixed feelings.

"It's my perfect score!

"It's amazing, there's no better way to describe it, it's amazing!"

"I love this ending, and I think that's what we often call the spirit of independence!"

Listening to these exclamations, Oldenberg, who also stood up, blushed with excitement and his heart beat violently, as if the entire film critics had the same attitude towards TET! They were crazy about it! What did Lionsgate get this time?!

A figure over there also stood up, Roger Albert!

He excitedly gave two thumbs up, kept making gestures to show good, strode over excitedly, and choked up excitedly: "You have a film like this, what luck did you take!? What luck did we take!!!?

Rope, Clark and others all nodded in agreement, and Albert continued to praise excitedly: "It's top-notch, it's as good as 'The Exorcist', really, you really should release it on a large scale! Mainstream audiences and non-mainstream audiences will love it, if it can't be loved by the audience, I don't know what film can!"

"Thank you......" Odenberg was so surprised that he was blindsided, and Albert finished watching "The Thrilling Ocean" (3. 5 stars) was not half as excited as it is now, and it was not so certain that the audience would love it......

"This is a movie, this is a movie! Great pseudo-documentary!" Albert was still excited, like an old urchin who had gotten the most beloved thing, and he was a little dancing: "You're going to give me a DVD of it later, I'm going to go back and watch it again, it's been a long time since I've had such a good horror movie!"

The old man's true feelings were revealed, and no one was surprised by this.

In January, Rob Schneider, the writer and star of "Dancing Men 2," and Patrick Goldstein, a film critic for the Los Angeles Times, got into a war of words, and Schneider was enraged by Goldstein's criticism, insultingly saying "You're not qualified to comment because you've never won a Pulitzer Prize." Albert suddenly spoke up, saying, "I've won the Pulitzer Prize, so I'm qualified to comment, right?" and then gave Schneider a thumbs up: "Your movie sucks annoyingly!"

This old man with a temperament will say it out loud if he likes it, and he will say it out loud if he hates it.

He was in a state of out-of-control emotion, and almost pulled Oldenberg and asked, "Yunik Kuller, has he made any other films? How many DVDs of his works do you have, give me one of them all, and I want to see them! This guy is a genius, another genius! A genius that makes people cry...... I love it!"

"Absolutely, but Tet is Cooler's first film. Odenberg laughed and shouted in his heart: Holy Mother Earth, Lionsgate has sent it again!

Despite being angrily reprimanded by Leslie Dart, this week's latest issue of "National Enquirer" did not stop its malicious attack on Ye Wei, but only stopped involving the entire crew of "Little Sunshine Beauty".

According to Ye Wei's insiders, although he used the method of suicide before, he was dumped by that girl a few days ago, and he was very distressed and helpless.

The outside world thinks that he must be very popular with girls, but in fact, there are really few girls who are interested in him, and what's worse is that he doesn't know how to get along with girls, whenever he dates girls, he is like a rock, and a few times he is scared and runs away. He really wants to have a girlfriend, but he doesn't know how to have one. As far as I can tell, he is ready to turn to a professional dating consultant. ”

The tabloid newspaper was accompanied by a recently taken photograph of Ye Wei standing alone on the street outside a studio somewhere in Toronto, looking at something, like a loser.

"Where's my girlfriend?" the tabloid wrote for the photo's design line, and commented: "Asking for help from a dating consultant might be a good idea, we don't want Viy to have another suicide, but hopefully he can have a positive change." Viy, poor can't win you a girl. ”

In the face of this gossip, the public relations team and other discerning people can see that this is a premeditated and step-by-step image destruction!

Seize the accident and first say that he committed suicide for love, and then denounce that he is not a genius at all, just a business puppet, and then leads this to the fact that he is actually a nerd. -- The most stereotypical image of an Asian American boy! Whether he's a genius bad boy or a genius good boy, the reality is a puppet nerd.

In this way, Ye Wei's charm and attractiveness will be completely ruined, and the stereotypes that he broke before will all come back, which is easier to believe than saying that he is gay.

The most tricky situation is that being continuously attacked by gossip tabloids, no matter what the parties say, even if Ye Wei has a girlfriend and posts it immediately, no matter whether the matter is true or false and illogical, as long as it spreads, there will always be some ignorant people who believe and talk about it, and then there will be these voices:

"I heard that viy is actually a nerd, don't look at him so humorous on the talk show, it's all designed, he doesn't know how to get along with girls!"

"Yes, no wonder I've never heard of who he's dating and falling in love with. ”

"He and Emma Roberts seem to have a good relationship, but they can only spread scandals without evidence, and they don't even have intimate street photos. ”

"It's no wonder that he and Kristen Stewart didn't go on, and that's right, Angelano is so much better than him, and Asian boys don't even know how to say 'I love you'. He was stupid when he was kissed by Stewart, and no girl would like this kind of person. ”

"Yes, it's me and I choose Angelano, he's so handsome!"

"Viy is such a pathetic wretch. ”

......

At the same time, in the latest issue of "Variety" magazine this week, "Sunshine Little Beauty" announced the first batch of work photos, and Ye Wei did a small interview.

The work stills were all taken on the studio set, one is Ye Wei hanging with his left hand in a plaster, and his right hand directing the film crew to arrange the camera position; one is him directing Hanks and Roberts, both superstars are listening attentively; and one is very leisurely and funny, Abigier Bryslin is listening to and learning in the classroom on the set, and he is also sitting next to him like a student, although he has just turned 17, although he is not a child laborer, he still has to learn.

Ye Wei praised Hanks for their professionalism in an exclusive interview, and revealed the filming progress:

"It's not the first time I've done something with the crew, but this time there are so many new challenges, and sometimes it's scrambling, and you know every day there's a struggle against time. We won the studio stage, and then there was the live action and location shooting, nothing was easy, but we were all confident and cherished this time. ”

Variety, one of Hollywood's two top entertainment journals, has a much smaller impact than The National Enquirer.

More people saw that Viy was trying to make a movie, and some people saw him pitiful, which made fans in the know really very indignant.

It's just that who viy's girlfriend is, and no one can say clearly, it's hard to refute the dead blacks......

All sorts of weird things are happening in the film industry, and this week, the film critics were blown up by a film!

Of course, it's not "Translation Storm" with a freshness of 56% on Rotten Tomatoes, nor "Seeing You Hate Early" with a freshness of 41%, nor "The King's Ransom" with 2%.

Not 25% of "Madison", not 26% of "The Race of Life......

Rather, with 153 film reviews (38 well-known film reviews), with 8. 7/10 points total, won 95% of the freshness of "Exorcism Video", the production fee is only 450,000, a stunning appearance!!

The film critics industry was a sensation, and Rotten Tomatoes was also a sensation, and I had to, because the "New Films of the Week" on the homepage was so distinct, almost all of them were green rotten fruits, but there was a red good tomato, which was dazzlingly red!

tet, a film that no one cared about and paid attention to before, suddenly appeared in the most conspicuous headline position on the homepage, a half-length still of "Maggie" with a cold expression, accompanied by a text introduction: "This girl scares the audience with her beauty, and the pseudo-documentary strikes again"

"Excellent acting, brilliant director, very scary, very effective, exorcism movies that think about human nature, family and faith. —4/4, Richard Rope, Albert and Ropee

"Younick Kuhler completes his ambition with a thriller, masterful actor performance unique to a pseudo-horror film, with a creepy and brilliant art. - 4/4, Mike Clark, USA Today

"Yunik Kuller's ruthlessness, Nina Dubov's amazing performance, pierce your heart, and the fear and pain it brings with it takes root. ”――3。 5/4, Moira McDonald, Seattle Times

"In the stories and genres that could easily become stealing 'The Exorcist' and 'Blair the Witch,' we see the talent, the thinking and the sincerity of Yunik Kuller, and it's a horror movie that makes a lot of sense. ”――3。 5/4, Peter Travers, Rolling Stone

"Can you understand a person who has watched countless horror movies with a trembling heart and a man in his 60s crying with tears on his face?

That's me watching "Exorcism Video". I wasn't afraid of demons, or blood, or who was hysterical, but it was the gradual great dark oppression that scared me and reminded me of the pain I had in my battle with cancer. This movie is about faith, the part of us that goes about facing the hardships of our lives. It was also what I was afraid of, losing faith. Life is not easy, and so is the struggle against a terrible fate.

Yunik Kuhler gave me a great warning, I love him, what a great cinematic genius to be a poet. —4/4, Roger Albert, Chicago Sun-Times
