Chapter 160: Bloom Your Light!

"Screaming-", β˜…β˜… (out of 4 stars, originally 6 stars), Roger Albert

1o242o3

"Screaming-" understands the concept of parody, but it is not the concept of satire. It opened up several popular movies ("The Omen," "The Sixth Sense," "The Matrix," "The B-Mile," "Midnight Bells") and recycled their scenes, parody translations from beginning to end (aIata, Albert's own coin), but it was sucking those movies rather than making them. A typical problem is that the satire of the film is no smarter and more meaningful than that of Humor Magazine, which struggles to find the vulnerable point of laughter, while Scream-Laugh is just trying to quote and fool.

The movie is full of famous and semi-famous faces, although only two are funny. That's the beginning of the film, where Jenny McCarthy and Pamela Anderson are doing the hilarious scenes of brainless blonde beauties to the limit, while their polybra bras are doing the same thing in another part.

Other cameos are: Quinn Latifa, Eddie Griffin, William Fursy, Peter Boyer, Macy Gray, George Carlin, Jay Lue, MAVP and Leslie Nelson, the olive tree of the spoof world, who plays the president. But what's the use of that? The film also has David Hack, who and his brother Jerry and Jim Abrahams co-wrote the brilliant and glittering "Flying Forever", which more or less created a spoof genre.

Maybe the problem is not him, maybe the problem is that the theme is finished and completely dead. The Scream idea seems to be a new and interesting direction – that's clever irony – but the Scream idea is back, and it's like it has its own crop circle, and its arrows always point to itself. ”』

If there is one word to describe this film review of Albert's past, it is depression

You can feel that mood between the lines, bad, frustrated, desperate, he can't see any future for the spoof theme, so many celebrity star cameos, and the originator of spoof as a director, the cast is so powerful but nothing funny, maybe the rookies laughed, but he only laughed once or twice in the audience.

He was so annoyed with this situation that he only scored 6 stars at first, but then he probably felt harsh and raised it to 2 stars.

Although "Screaming Laughter-" was wildly closed. 100 million North American box office, but in the eyes of the god of film criticism: "TeureIaeud1-Teud1ad"

The spoof is dead

It's not even funny with that lineup, what other way can it be funny?

But now......

"The Wedding is Coming, β˜…β˜…β˜…β˜… by Roger Albert

62264

In today's day and age, "The Wedding Is Coming" is a great spoof movie, and it is also an excellent masterpiece in the entire history of spoof films.

Its story isn't the popular way to smoke hits, it's not a hodgepodge of scattered films, it's on the path of perhaps the most correct tradition, telling a new comedic story with spoof moments, clever satire, parody, clever camera tricks that make it so confident and funny

I like Ye Wei and the aspects he gives to the film, this talented 6-year-old boy not only made a masterpiece, but also gave a new light to the spoof theme. The genre is not dead, it's just that there are too few people willing to be original and too many marauders.

The story begins with a couple getting ready to get married, but the process of preparing for the wedding does not go well, leaving Kana River Shri Mato) to retreat. And the wedding god (Ye Wei), who is in charge of the human wedding, comes to the world to prepare to help them. Their performances are exaggerated and brilliant, Ye Wei's expression is the most amazing, his understanding of satire reaches a subtle Cheng dΓΉ, and from his first appearance, he has mastered the scene.

I laughed from the beginning to the end, and its easter egg was another teasing of the classic line of "Flying Forever", a stout man named Shirley, like all of its handy. Creating laughter can be as simple as not requiring many celebrity cameos, it only has two, Nicolas Cage and Tom Hanks (voiced), and their scenes are extremely funny.

We generally laugh for one of several reasons, affection, sympathy, superiority, self-deprecation, humiliation, and unexpectedness. The most used in spoof satirical movies is the sense of superiority, and the stupidity of the characters makes people happy to do so, but "The Wedding is Coming" uses the most love and unexpectedness, which are very clever and just hit the soft spot of the laugh. Incredibly, there are some touching passages in the film that make its laughter even more meaningful. All of this makes it different from parody translations, full of surprises one after another.

With "The Wedding Date is Coming", the spoof theme is as young as a teenager, maybe this kind of theme can only be filmed well by young people full of whimsy, maybe it's just that Ye Wei is too special, his glimpse of the genius of spoof movies has created new brilliance.

I like to like to like to like to like to like like to like to like like to like this movie movie, "The Wedding is Coming" is for everyone, as long as you want to have a good laugh. ”』

Four out of four stars

People who saw this review in front of the computer were shocked how long it took Roger Albert to give a spoof movie a four......-star? It seems that never

"Screaming Laughter" and "Ace Big Spy" all have only -stars, and "Unprecedented Flying in the Sky", which is respected as the originator, is also -stars, and "Bald Detective" B6 stars; In terms of classic comedies, "My Grand Greek Wedding" and "Meet My Father-in-law" are only 1-stars

The most of his 4-star list are literary films, but there are also commercial films, such as "Tianzhao", which is in the middle of the overall word-of-mouth with 4 stars; The 33-year-old Chinese director Lin Yibin's debut film "Good Luck Tomorrow" has 4 stars; 4 stars for the foreign comedy "Song and Play", (he later gave the satirical comedy "Borat" 4 stars)......

Why is "The Wedding Coming" 4 stars?The surprise of the withering era?Ye Wei's age?The touching moment of the film?Not a parody concept, but a satirical concept?Caused by a moment of happiness?

No one can know what the old man thinks specifically, there are too many possibilities, and he has always been an emotional person, sometimes even extreme, the film critics applauded, he can be called bad, and the film critics can be applauded by the people, so he is deeply loved by the people.

He was certainly pleased, and looked at how many almost numb words of praise he used:

said that "The Wedding is Coming" is great, excellent, correct, smart, and brilliant...... said that Ye Wei was talented, amazing, genius, and prodigy......

The old man was obviously not just happy, but excited, he thought that a subject had died, and suddenly he was resurrected and laughed from beginning to end

Like, like, like, use three Lt in a row to express the mood at this time

Maybe after a while, when he calms down, he will adjust the star rating of "The Wedding is Coming", as he often does.

But now, "The Wedding Is Coming" has received 4 stars

"Holy Jesus, Holy Jesus ......"

In front of the computer screen, Brian's eyes suddenly almost fell out, and he kept muttering sighs, reading this movie review back and forth several times, and then looking at the URL, vrt. CM is not wrong, this is on Roger Albert's official website date 62264 not April Fool's Day, it's true

Incredible things continue to be born, "The Wedding is Coming" captured the heart of the god of film criticism, the genius boy Ye Wei, got his approval and got his two thumbs

6 years old, just 6 years old, this damn not a prodigy, what is it?

Tom Tikwe, who started making short films at the age of 11, engaged in film production at the age of 13, and made "Lola Run" at the age of 33, others called him "Movie Doll"; Spielberg also started making short films at the age of 11 and made his first feature film at the age of 6, and others called him a film prodigy; The others are Tim Burton, Kevin Smith, Steven Soderbergh, Peter Jackson...... They all had the name of a child prodigy.

But from now on, I'm sorry, dude, a movie prodigy can only refer to one person, and that person's name is, Ye Wei

Ye Wei has changed the meaning of the word movie prodigy, a guy who filmed "Angel Dance" at the age of 15 and remade "The Wedding is Coming" at the age of 6 is a god

Otherwise, Ye Wei is one grade, and other prodigies are another grade.

And the agent of this top prodigy is called, Brianburer

"Hahahaha" Brian laughed heartily, winning, for him, the battle had been won

Because no matter how much the box office can have, now that Ye Wei has received unanimous praise from the film critics, and the name of genius has been steadily implemented, then Hanks' investment in his "Little Beauty in Daylight" project, there will be no negative evaluation from the outside world, and their initial goal has been completed.

Look at the existing 7 film reviews, all of them are applauded, although two of them give B4 points, but who cares, there are Albert's four stars, shining one qiΔ“

In such a moment of victory, Brian certainly didn't miss one thing to do, and sent a text message to Lovett on his phone:

"Hi, I have good news for you, "The Wedding is Coming" has received a lot of praise from the film critics, Roger Albert said that Ye Wei is a talented prodigy, haBaj My friend, I really want to say thank you to you, thank you for your help, and thank you for giving up Ye Wei. ”

Lovett, you know what? You gave up a genius, a future superstar, a great treasure

Looking at the text messages on the phone screen, Lowwitt's face was hard to see, as if he was about to die of poisoning. He deleted the text message, looked at Albert's movie review on the computer screen, and gritted his teeth so much that his teeth were about to break

What can I do now? He took off his glasses, wiped his eyes and pinched the bridge of his nose, and had to admit that he had really slipped out of the kid......

With that kid's story, image, eloquence and the team behind him, he knows that Ye Wei is not delusional to become an "all-American idol".

Suddenly, at this time, the mobile phone rang, and Lovett, who was frightened, jumped in fright, and when he saw that it was Tracy Brinan, he breathed a sigh of relief and answered the passage: "What?"

"You know it. Tracy's voice was full of anger, "We have all been fools, our previous troublemakers were to help the enemy Lovett, this is your perfect plan, this is what you said Ye Wei will definitely not satisfy the film critics, this is what you said Ye Wei is not a genius Are you crazy or Albert crazy, you sue me?"

Lowett was silent, unable to say what he wanted to say, "Movie movie is ...... like this"

"It's not me who has been most affected by this, I'm not close to Sbolaill and they're dead, I've got Lindsay Lohan. ”

Tracy said and laughed: "Hehe, but what about you, will Bruce Willis fire you? and then you know that as long as this matter is publicized by them in the circle, the celebrities will lose confidence in you, and the company will not recruit you into the partner management, and your power will disappear very quickly, because you are all screwed."

"......" Lovett is still speechless, he knows that Tracy is not scolding, Michael Ovitz, one of the founders of caaR spoon, once the most glamorous agent, made a fool of leaving caa to go to Disney to mess up, and then being swept away, what power does he have now?

He asked in a whisper, "What can I do?"

"No, we lost this time, you should do your best to stabilize Willis, otherwise you will lose nothing. ”

When Tracy hung up the call, Arnold Rivkin called, and as soon as Lovett connected, he heard the annoying voice: "It's over, Roger Albert gave that movie four stars, and now it's 1oo Rotten Tomatoes freshness, do you know what that means? It was originally ours, and Cheyenne Enterprise is all yours ......"

Lowett's anger exploded: "You idiot producer, accuse me again of trying to have the opportunity to invite Sam J1δΈ¨Des to direct the little beauty of daylight", aren't you excited? What do you say, who is Ye Wei?, without my connections to match you, you make a bullshit movie, you'd better shut up for me now"

"Hahaha," Rifkin laughed angrily, "I can shut up, but will Bruce shut up? ”

Toot toot, the call hung up, and the study fell into a dead silence.

After a long time, Lovett slowly moved, as if weak, took out a small bottle of anti-anxiety and sedative from the drawer of his desk, poured a few and took water.

However, the pills that worked in the past didn't work today, and after a long time, his mood still couldn't calm down, and he was still irritable.

"Ye Wei, how is this possible, how can this be, Ye Wei, how can it be ......"

"I once thought that the spoof theme was dead, but Ye Wei declared to us new vitality, great fun, and classic movies. β€”44 Richard Rope, Albert and Ropee

As of 2 a.m. on June 2, 2o4, there are 17 well-known movie reviews, and Rotten Tomatoes has a freshness of 1oo and an audience favorite of 6

"I felt like I was going to die laughing a few times, and it was an epic movie, so much fun," Marcus L said. "Amazing amazing absolute humor funny, I love VIy" Calvin B said: "Although I prefer the Scream series, it's really good and I laugh most of the time." Patti said: "I laughed all over the audience, this is the best spoof movie I have ever seen, I believe Ye Wei will bring us more surprises, of course, he is only 6 years old"......

On INDB, "The Wedding Date Is Coming" has two pages, one is the old version from 2o3 and the other is a remake from 2o4.

The former was over-rated by 57 users, B1o points, in fact, many of the 57 people have not seen it, just to step on it for VIy; The latter already has 26 user ratings with a score of 61o, the highest-scoring spoof movie in recent years

"Ace Big Spy" o points, "Screaming Laughter" 62 points, "Laughing-" - points; The originator of "Bald Detective". 6 points, "Unprecedented Flying Sky" B points.

Although there are not many users in the past 200, and most of them are fans, with the support of the film critics, where can the score fall?

If you want 1oo theaters in the next week, the three requirements of IPC are "60,000 at the box office per week, and 6 points on 6Indb in terms of freshness", and "The Wedding is Coming" has already completed two.

VIy's official website, VIy blog and other places are also lively, the messages on the message board are rising like a tide, and even the traffic of hpIy.com is soaring, which makes Chen Nuo scream, and also makes Lev and them excited, and every new search on the Internet can find a new report about Ye Wei.

It's amazing, it's so handsome

Anna Sophia laughed and shouted: "Only, you are a star, you became a star before me, haha"

On this day, many traditional daily media have reported on it, such as the Los Angeles Times movie version also scored 46 points, film critic Kenneth Turan wrote: "Obviously funny, clever satire, Ye Wei's talent is amazing, he is a humor bomb, a movie prodigy." ”

Prodigy, the consensus of film critics

is a sensation, even if "The Day After Tomorrow" has appeared in the midnight of 6B6 theaters, even if "The Godmother of Pop" and "Soul Dream Flying" have also appeared, nothing can steal the layout that Ye Wei and "The Wedding is Coming", and nothing can steal the public's attention to the prodigy.

As night fell, Spielberg's house, on the lively dinner table, began the story club game again.

"Dad, the real story we told us before seems to have an ending. ”

Sasha looked radiant, as a person who supported VIy's side, she looked at the eyes of several brothers with smugness, and continued: "Ye Wei's "Marriage is Coming" was screened yesterday, and the film critics all say that the ending at this stage is that he is about to become truly famous, and the whole world will like him. ”

When she said the details, there was a low exclamation at the table, and Theo and Sawyer looked at each other, the man was too powerful for them to say anything

"Dad, am I right?" Sasha asked with a smile.

Spielberg smiled and nodded: "Now Ye Wei's upward trend is indeed very strong, and I am actually a little surprised that he can make this achievement." But some people are like that, give him a chance and he can do more than you think. ”

"It's hard to believe at 6 years old. Kate Capshaw also sighed, "When I was 6 years old...... I don't remember what I was doing. ”

"I'm making a movie. Spielberg said.

"Dad, you didn't get four stars from Roger Albert back then. Sasha chuckled, "So I think he's so cool, and tomorrow night, I'm going to the theater, will any of you go with you?"

"I'll go, I'll go" young Mikara and Dastri were intrigued.

Brentwood, Ye's living room.

On the sand, Ye Haogen was holding a laptop and swiping new movie reviews, whether it was a film critic or a netizen, he swiped another one, looked at it and immediately laughed, and read aloud: "The fun of "The Wedding is Coming" is the level of laughter after watching it a few times, it's wonderful."

Gu Qiao, who was looking at a copy of the article next to her, couldn't help but smile, not because she was happy because of the movie review, but because of her husband's appearance, "You really look like a demon." ”

"Yes, I am. Ye Haogen's middle-aged face was full of joy, "This is our son's achievement, can't I take a few more looks?" I wonder why you don't look at it. ”

"I'd like to wait until it's clearer. After all, Gu Qiao was a quiet person, and he was thinking about something: "Actually, is it now...... There's some hope at the box office?"

The husband and wife didn't talk much about this in front of Ye Wei, but they naturally had expectations, especially now that the movie reviews are so good, they can't help but think of the box office, debts, living expenses, and tuition fees. At the end of the year, it's time for Duoduo to go to school, whether it's a kindergarten at the expensive Berkeley Hall School, or a public school, you really have to watch "The Wedding is Coming".

"Hmm, I want to ......" Ye Haogen continued to brush up on the movie reviews, after the fiasco last time, he didn't dare to be blindly optimistic: "It should be, there should be 1oo thousand? I guess it can." ”

Gu Qiao silently looked around, this place called home, and thought about something: "Haogen, if it really doesn't work, we will sell this house and move to a cheap place, and we can't repeat what we did before." ”

Knowing what she was referring to, Ye Haogen nodded, "I'll take care of myself." ”

"Mommy, Daddy" Duoduo's cry suddenly came from far and near, and there was the sound of going down the stairs, and soon she ran to the living room, crying: "My brother snatched my candy and won't let me go into his room to play." Toto, who was next to him, barked a few times, as if to say, "I saw it all, it's true"

During the day on this day, Ye Wei spent time on campus, the ninth grade was coming to an end, he had already completed his studies in academic classes, sports, art, etc., that is, the "cuttlefish" time that was punished by the old principal was still there, and the old principal said that it could not be exempted, and it must be completed before the graduation ceremony on June 6.

Starting next school year, he will go to high school, and he is a veritable high school student.

Ninth grade has had an incredible school year.

Standing in the bedroom, Ye Wei glanced at the surroundings where his face was already very different, many things were missing, and there were many more things.

His eyes saw several new trophies in the trophy cabinet over there, the Ye Wei Award at the film festival, the best film, the best director, and the nVp top scorer in the football league.

I saw the treasures in the gift cabinet next to me, full of friendship, and my eyes stopped on the Cook lens, remembering that breezy night, and thinking of Lily......

Ye Wei was thinking about it, the mobile phone suddenly rang, he took it out to see that the caller was Gary Gozman, his heart jumped suddenly, he took a deep breath, and knew what kind of call this was.

It's almost B o'clock in the evening, and the box office of the two shows on Thursday and the three games at midnight on Friday should be counted.

The quality of film reviews and the box office are not directly linked, there is no absolute in the movie, the box office is the box office.

Is there a feeling that it rises and falls with the wind, but I know that I will eventually fly freely to the highest clouds. Ye Wei pressed the connection, "Good evening, Gary."

"Weige, good news" Gozman's excited words immediately came out, "The box office for yesterday's and today's midnight shows is out, oh my god, both of them were full yesterday, and they received 245o"

Ye Wei's heartbeat couldn't help but add, 8o The audience can't collect 36 yuan because of discounts, children's discounts and other reasons, what about today?

"Today's three shows also have a great table, a total of 97o yuan not counting the number of shows during the day, the total box office will break 10,000, and the attendance rate of the first show tonight is also full, the first day broke 10,000, you have no doubt that the Ipc side has just communicated with me, with the current trend, the second week 1oo theaters are no problem, they have to start busy arranging theaters and making copies, haha. ”

Ye Wei stood there in a daze, as if there was an electric current all over his body, and heard three sentences clearly: 10,000 on the first day, 1oo theaters in the second week are no problem, and it was done

"Young man, you are creating a miracle I can't talk about a number, but from my years of production experience, "The Wedding is Coming" has a box office of at least 3o thousand, which is an extremely conservative number, you know, an extremely conservative number. Young man, you did it. ”

"Oh...... Thanks, I see. Ye Wei gradually couldn't hear what Gozman was saying, until he ended the call, he was still stunned, and his eyes were a little red.

He blinked it, these eyes, he had seen the cruelty of reality, the beauty of dreams, the darkness of the night, and the light of dawn.

Looking at the bookcase by the window, Ye Wei walked over, a one-person-high multi-layer bookcase full of new and old film books, all kinds of books, he flipped through Robert McGee's "Story", Louis Janetti's "Understanding Movies", and Joseph Campbell's "Hero with a Thousand Faces......

put it down, he flipped up the original materials of "The Wedding is Coming" in the cabinet next to him, pages of scripts, storyboards, and those documents of his own sorting and analysis of classic spoof movies, the mode, laughter, and structure of "Flying in the Sky Unprecedentedly", "Ace Spy", "Screaming Laughter", ......

You have not failed everyone, and you have not failed yourself.

The effort is never in vain.

Ye Wei looked at the original materials of "Angel Dance" again, the script, the storyboard, his fingers gently stroked the folds on each piece of paper, and scenes of the past came to his heart, and he suddenly remembered so clearly that day in the Ivy Restaurant, how he talked to Willis's father and daughter, and how he tried his best to say every word

He thought of joy, he thought of sadness, he thought of faces that he loved or hated, and he suddenly felt a little helpless, his soul was trembling, and big tears slipped down his eyes, hitting the page in his hand, blurring the portrait, he erased one drop, but more fell.

He put the "Dance of Angels" storyboard back, walked to the window with teary eyes, and looked at the night sky outside with the bright moon and stars, tears flowed more and more, and his mouth trembled, crying silently.

You once fell, but you got back up.

You used to see the light and be swallowed up by the darkness, but you found a new fire, and you came out again to find your dreams.

Maybe the future won't be smooth, maybe it's just a dream, but at this moment, your soul is bathed in the best sunshine.

A dazzling flame was burning with amazing power, ready to explode at any moment. That's me.

go, go, go, VIy to the world, bloom your light and make people exclaim, VIy is coming
