Chapter 280: Exorcism Mania
"A good person, an ordinary girl who is only 13 years old, went to watch "The Exorcism Video" out of curiosity, had a nervous breakdown in the theater, and then decided that she was covered by a demon, and she could see a demon's face in front of her all day long, and finally had to see a psychiatrist.
Why is that? Why is it that so young kids can see "The Exorcism"? It's a demonic horror film that destroys immature people. The PG-13 class is not suitable for it, the R class is equally not suitable for it, it should be classified as NC-17. In this way, we can get through this difficult time and there will not be more viewers like my daughter. β
-- Marco Dench, a parent member of the MPAA Rating Committee, an excerpt from a letter to the media, "The Error in TET Ratings."

On the morning of Sunday, June 12, Ye Wei got off the plane and stood on the land of Los Angeles again, the city of angels!
The Volkswagen car driven by old George left the airport, Ye Wei looked at the scenery outside the car window, thinking about something, and gradually returned to Brentwood in West Los Angeles from the airport, the business district on San Vicente Avenue was still busy, and the RW sofa was still there, and it seemed that nothing had changed.
I left my hometown in September last year and officially returned home in June this year, as if it had been a long, long time, and it seemed like yesterday.
He learned a lot at Wexford, improved his acting and directing skills, he finished the pre-production and filming of "Little Miss Sunshine" better than he wanted to do, he had a girlfriend who loved each other, and he made a movie called "The Exorcism Video" that is now shocking the world.
Success and failure are really elusive! Life, the world, is really full of accidents.
In any case, he really didn't expect that now, for the first time in his film career, the North American box office will break 100 million?
Yunik Kuller, what a lucky guy, absolutely, absolutely absolutely lucky.
What should I do? When failure comes, accept it, and when success comes, accept it calmly.
Gu You, you succeeded, but Ye Wei, you haven't!
As the car drove into South Gretna Green Street, the houses on both sides of the street had not changed either, Mr. Payne's yard was still so messy, Mrs. Langdon's dilapidated garage roof had not been repaired, and Dr. Yip's house was ...... The lawn in the front yard is still neatly kept, and a little girl and a fat dog are playing, waiting, and jumping with joy when they see the car!
"I'm back!" The car stopped, Ye Wei opened the car door and walked out with his hands outstretched, "Folks, I'm back!"
Toto frantically wagged his tail and pounced, and Duoduo jumped up faster than it!
"Brother!", "Wang, Wang, woo woo!"
"Your viy, you're back!!"
Just after noon, not long after the start of the afternoon, there was a tuk-tuk sound outside Ye's house, a piece of laughter and shouting of young people, and the neighbors around the family were alarmed, only to see a convoy parked on the side of the road, most of them were mid-range new cars, and the boys were sitting on the bus and standing on the side of the car, wearing uniform clothes, red and black T-shirts and jeans.
Is it a gang rally? Should you call the police?
But Brentwood isn't the community where that happens......
"Brother Wei!", "viy!viy!you're already surrounded, come out quickly!", "Don't force us to go in and arrest you, we don't want you to lose face in front of your sister!", "Haha!"
Hearing this, the neighbors all understood, oh it turns out that Viy is back, and in the blink of an eye, these children are all grown up and can drive everywhere.
"You little bitches!" A figure in a red and black jersey and trousers walked out of the door of the house with a smile and scolding, it was Ye Wei, "I haven't kicked your ass for half a year, you just itch, right?" Duoduo who followed covered her ears and didn't listen to swearing, "Brother, don't swear!"
"What? I don't remember you going to read St. Mardin?"
"Hahaha!"
was laughed at by his brother and his friends, Duoduo pouted and left, "Brother is a bastard, ignore you!"
"Yo yo!" Ye Wei raised his hands and high-fived the guys along the way, friends of the football team, members of the Dream Chasing Alliance!
"Hey, Babu, you're not kidding me, are you? you've got a beard!" Ye Wei exclaimed. Babul touched his chin heavily, "Just a little." β
"Ming, you have grown taller again, this is to become Yao Ming!" Ye Wei beat Li Ming's chest, and then hugged the shoulder of Bard next to him, "Hakula Matata, what a wonderful phrase!" Bud sang first, "Hakula Matata, it is a fanaticism that has not subsided!" and said seriously: "I'm not gay......"
Ye Wei let go of him, kicked his ass, and hugged Chen Nuo and Corwin one by one, "It means that from now on, you will have no worries in your life!"
"Only! Brother Wei!" Lev, who was driving a Buick and didn't get out of the car, pressed the car again, "Come on, let your singing sound resounding throughout the high school campus!"
"Captain, we've got a football match for you, how about it, okay?"
"If you don't do it, you can only win 5:0, not one more goal. Let's go, let's go, guys, I'm going to kill you!!"
......
the-exorcism-tapes, what a horrible phrase!
the-exorcism-tapes, it is a frenzy that has not subsided!
Exorcism-madness is its new name!
It's like a comet hitting the earth, and everyone is doomed!

Exorcism Mania!
This is the headline keyword of boxofficemojo's weekly North American box office report, and it is also the title of the feature report, which is the common name of media-by-numbers and other box office tracking statistical agencies, and it is a word used by many, many media outlets!
Crazy! Perhaps only by going crazy can we best describe the current phenomenon, crazy TET crazy North American box office broke 100 million!
Although the accumulated energy exploded in the much-anticipated Exorcism Week, -68 was released the following week. The 5% box office trend ranks first in the decline of this week's large-scale releases, but it still has gas in its tank! It's enough oil to keep it crushing rivals Teoer and DPTTE, and it's enough to pull off amazing miracles!
No one can stop it, not even the Smiths, the second pseudo-documentary to break 100 million! One of the highest-grossing horror films in history!
Crazy tide!
"The meaning of exorcism is heavy. "It's one of the most important films of the year, not just because of its amazing appearance, it's because of the huge impact it has had on the film industry." A lot of ideas are going to be redefined. β
Talking about the reasons for its success, he said: "This crazy result is not only due to the film itself, but also a combination of many aspects, a film with perfect reviews, an exorcism battle, a mysterious genius, a market that lacks strong opponents, and a successful marketing."
In fact, the whole Internet is flooded with TET ads, which just don't show up much in the traditional ad spots, but it finds a more subtle place and a viral way that is more likely to arouse people's interest. Lionsgate has beautifully won a marketing battle. This is one aspect of the TET change, the Internet is the enemy of the film industry, and the set can be completely thrown away, and Hollywood's future film distribution will definitely rely more on the Internet. β
As for the box office prediction, he said: "It can be ranked 1 in North America." $300 million, which may close to or even surpass "Blair the Witch". β
"Blair the Witch" is 140,501,248, yes, under inflation, the same number in 2005 is actually less than in 1999, but don't forget that the North American film market is shrinking year by year, and audiences have more choices of ways to watch movies, DVDs, TV on demand...... So it's really hard to say who's scarier.
"It's amazing, it's a movie release full of unknowns. Paulo Degara Bedian concluded.
North America 1. 300 million? What nonsense, the person who made this prediction a month ago was a man of God, and now? every analyst knows it!
A lot of people are nagging about "I would have known it earlier...... You won't lose your job. It is understood that several heads of the film purchase and distribution departments of several film companies were directly demoted or fired because of the wrong TET, a cruel industry.

The sun was shining, and on the soccer field of Harvard-Westlake High School, a group of teenagers and boys were playing the game, and the figure wearing the captain's armband on his left arm shot hard from outside the penalty area, and the ball broke a lightning-fast arc and broke high into the net......
The boy looked up to the sky and roared, pointing his index fingers to the sky with both hands, and dancing with his feet swinging, "Right here, guys, this is your graveyard!"
3:1, the boys of both teams laughed and screamed, the winning team was happy, and the losing team was not frustrated, "Captain, it seems that Toronto didn't take away your footwork!", "Haha!"
"Of course, I'm training at the ice hockey rink, which one do you say is bigger?
The boy jumped to his feet and shook his fist, the sun shining on his face, making the sweat spill away like pearls, "I am a mad beast!!"
The beast is meant to eat man.
"Emily Rose's Exorcism" has fallen to the point where I don't know where to go...... It was first killed, and then eaten!
Although Sony has not said anything about it, Warner Bros. has not said anything, and it seems that there has never been such a thing as an exorcism. But people inside and outside the industry can know how much they regret it, and they really shot themselves in the foot, and if Teoer didn't raise the file and continued to release in September, maybe it wouldn't be so bleak......
In the second week of DPTTE, there were only 135 theaters left, and there was no third week. Because there is no money to be made from the screening, distributors, theater operators, and movie theaters, no one. Fishing in troubled waters was declared a failure, and this version did not save face for the "Exorcist" series, but lost even more.
Teoer's director, Scott Derrickson, also didn't speak out anymore...... His debut film was a miserable loss, and his future was bleak. He was pitiful, drawn into a fight that he shouldn't have been drawn into, and he was sad to run into an invincible genius like Yunik KΓΌller!
In the 21st century, the new image and new brand of exorcism, who does it belong to!?
Lionsgate, which has gone crazy, doesn't mention the exorcism controversy again, but Oldenberg's words to the press can't contain pride: "We weren't surprised by this, when we first watched TET, we knew its great potential, and this is a real genius." β
Yunik Kuller!
The whole people are looking for Yunik Kuller!!
Who is he, how old is he, what does he look like? The mainstream media wants a picture of him, and the gossip media wants it. His photo is worth a thousand dollars!
Paparazzi have rushed to Toronto to carry out the operation, because Lionsgate said that Tet was filmed there, there must be clues!
This weekend, an entertainment website published a set of street photos, Nina Dobov and a mysterious man in his early twenties walking on the street, very affectionate, that is her boyfriend?
Perfect Evaluation, Weekly Champion, North American Box Office Breaking 100 Million, Miracle, Crazy Tide, Genius......
However, there is not a single photo, not a single interview, and there is no wind at all!
What the hell is going on here?!
And this weekend, suddenly another gossip tabloid broke out, and an insider from Nina Dubov broke the news that Yunik Kuhler had another name...... Yunik Gu.
Yunik-Gu is a pseudonym used by Ye Wei when he went to school in Toronto.
In other words, Yunik-Kuller is equal to, but Ge-Ye.
That is, the viy of the reservoir dogs lately.
What the hell is this...... What's going on!?

"The emergence of exorcism has revealed the lack of faith in today's society. Young people who want excitement to go to the movies, adults who want to be inspired, they are actually confused and uneasy, but they would rather go to the cinema than go to church. It's really time for us to rethink. β
