The successful release of "Planet of the Apes" immediately caused a frenzy of movie-watching.

Those who watched the premiere returned home and were still shocked by the facts revealed by the film. In this film, it is seen that humanity is on the path of self-destruction, and that the future masters of the earth are likely to be other species, and at that time, humanity will be completely reduced to a lower animal, to be slaughtered by others.

All of this is the result of human greed and cruelty, not natural disasters or other living things.

One of the critics commented: "While the film is highly entertaining in its packaging and use of suspense, it pins the director's political demands on such a futuristic film, and the plot of the protagonist's unjustified trial is a clear allusion to the McCarthyist persecution of Hollywood, even though the cloud has been floating over the Dream Factory for more than a decade." ”

"The film's interpretation of moral redemption, abuse of authority, and class is surprising, and it alludes to the evils of modern American society."

However, the success of "Planet of the Apes" over other films is that it does a great job of dissolving the heavy topics it wants to convey into fantasy, special effects, adventure and suspense, avoiding the clumsiness of blunt sermons and self-talk. In fact, the film has long been positioned as a family movie, and it is rare for this type of film to convey such political implications. ”

Some film critics exclaimed in the newspaper: "Planet of the Apes, the legend of 1960!" ”

The critic said: "This movie is very good in terms of graphics, music, storyline and actors' acting. The film was scored by the talented musician Alex himself, which he wrote, directed, and acted. It's almost half the work of a film. From this film, we see a future vision of mankind, which, according to the current international situation, is likely to become a reality! ”

The film uses empathy to show the crisis and pathological psychology of human society: arrogant humans are unwilling to be enslaved by animals, because the subconscious orangutan is inferior. This is a common psychological trend between human beings and moviegoers in the film; And what about orangutans? They also think that they are superior and humans are inferior, and when they see humans rebelling, their expressions of surprise are no less than the expressions of humans in our reality when they see orangutans rebelling. ”

Critics and general audiences received an excellent reputation for the film, and with their strong recommendation, more people went to the cinema to watch it, and these people were immediately shocked by the film's depiction of the future of humanity. When they walk out of the cinema. I was still thinking about the scene at the end of the day: Lady Liberty collapsed on the beach!

And so it goes. More people have joined the ranks of "ape fans", and they want to recommend it to their relatives and friends around them. I even watched it once or several times with my own accompaniment, and under their influence, more and more people went to the cinema.

The appeal of several actors in this film is not weak. Plus DreamWorks is well advertised. The initial success of the campaign snowballed the number of moviegoers. The rate of growth is getting faster and faster. It is like a chain reaction, spreading to the whole country, and then to Europe, the United States, and the whole world.

The film's box office continues to rise. At first, Alex thought that the box office in the United States would be almost 100 million, but he didn't expect that it would have exceeded hundreds of millions of box office a month later. At this time, the number of moviegoers was still very large, and the attendance rate did not drop much.

As for the overseas box office, due to the difficulty of statistics from various countries, it has not been counted for the time being.

Seeing such a fiery reaction, even Alex was taken aback, he really didn't expect so many people to come and watch. In his impression, it would be amazing that this film could have eighty or ninety million.

The orangutan hood in the store suddenly became a bestseller, and many people would run to buy an orangutan hood to wear after watching the movie. When my friends saw it, they thought it was funny, so they bought it and wore it.

These people quickly used this method to identify each other and gathered together. They are all viewers who have watched "Planet of the Apes", and they are very interested in the storyline described in the film and the background of the world, so they spontaneously formed a so-called "ape fan" organization.

Whenever there are demonstrations in various places, it is common to see such a group of people wearing orangutan hoods and holding a banner in their hands, which reads: "Ape does not kill ape!" Peace comes first! ”

Or the lyrics of some of Alex's songs, etc., and so on, all in all, they quickly attracted the attention of the news media, and every time they appeared, they would be eye-catching.

In order to add fuel to the fire, stir up this wave of apes. Alex suddenly remembered to shoot a very simple MTV. He hired a few DreamWorks staff and put on makeup to look like an orangutan, and the makeup props used were naturally not the headgear sold in the store, but they were not as troublesome as in the movie.

Then he wears a pair of black wide-brimmed sunglasses, stands in front of the camera, covers the lens with his hand, and releases it after a few seconds.

I saw five backup dancers dressed as orangutans standing behind him, and they were all wearing a pair of sunglasses, looking honest and cute, which made people laugh.

Alex sang: "Ye TM doesn't want to do it today, I just want to nest in the bed, I just don't want to answer the phone and pinch it!" So you just leave a word. Because the master swears, he won't do anything today. ”

Ye raised his feet, stared at the fan in a daze, turned on the TV, and stuffed his hands into his pants to tinker. Don't tell me you can't! I'll crook on the couch, nestled in my warm nest, switch to the ABC channel, and watch them teach me how to dance! Because in my castle, I'm ........"

"Ye TM doesn't want to do it today, he just wants to nest in the bed, but he doesn't want to answer the phone and pinch it, so you just leave a word! Because the master swears, he won't do anything today. The hair doesn't dry! The hair doesn't dry! The hair doesn't dry! ”

Yes, the song sung by Alex is a song by Brother Mars in later generations, and this "The-lazy-song" is the famous song of Brother Mars. may not be as good as his later works in terms of musical quality, but this song is very interesting. Those who like it will like it to a mess. Those who don't like it find the song boring and without any artistry.

Alex remembered to make this song, and it was only because he saw the newspaper that those ape fans wearing orangutan hoods remembered it. He spoofed the idea and immediately called a few DreamWorks employees over, originally he wanted to do it casually, but he didn't expect them to treat such a trivial matter as if it were a movie.

This is natural, the boss's request, and of course the people below will do their best to complete it. Especially the boss is still watching in front of him, these little people who don't usually see Alex. How could such an opportunity be missed. These guys are holding chicken feathers as arrows. The make-up artist who was following Morris to shoot the Apes movie series was urgently called.

This action not only alarmed DreamWorks, but even Carpenter Records was taken aback: "Alex is coming out with a new song, why didn't you notify us?" This is not possible, we must be involved. ”

Hula-la. A group of people rushed from the record company all at once. It seems that he wants to steal business with DreamWorks.

Alex's younger siblings followed. Take a look at what exactly this song is.

After all, every time Alex makes a shot, he can be refreshing, and his songs have been regarded as the vane of pop songs. Every time a new style of song appears, it will cause a lot of trends in the music world.

For example, the jazz rock music in "Mom Says", the electronic music in "Love is Hard to Talk", the rap part in "Baby", etc., when they first came out, some of them were not used to it, and some of them were eager to do it, and gradually more and more people imitated it, and it slowly formed a trend.

His musical compositions are considered to exhibit a variety of styles, with elements of a variety of musical genres. Many music critics have praised it, and the New York Times music critic once wrote, "Alex is the most diverse and approachable singer in pop music!" Every time his songs are innovative, they will definitely lead to new breakthroughs in music songs. ”

"Why did everyone come here? This song of mine is just sung casually, it's nothing! Alex was almost frightened by the presence of these people, he really wanted to spoof a song, and he didn't take into account the problems of sales, popularity, etc.

"No, I'm going to play as an orangutan too!"

Karen was angry that she didn't ask her to come with her for something so funny. Especially after seeing the MTV that Alex and those staff members filmed, she was even more angry. Although the MTV effect is very rough and has not been post-processed, it is very interesting just from the perspective of its funny component.

For this kind of thing, Karen has always wanted to participate, she has always wanted to play the little orangutan in "Planet of the Apes", but unfortunately when Alex started filming, she still had things to do and couldn't participate. Now she has finally found an opportunity, and of course she will not let it go.

"Yes, Alex, since you're going to shoot MTV, of course you'll have to find us to shoot it. After all, we're a Carpenter brother and sister group, and although you rarely record with us during this time, you can't secretly shoot MTV yourself! ”

Even his younger brother Richard, who acted much more steadily than Cullen, was eager to try it, and felt that this MTV was much happier than the ones he filmed. He's actually not very old, but because he has an older brother like Alex, he puts a lot of pressure on him, so he usually doesn't show enough activity in front of others.

Seeing them stalking like this, Alex was a little helpless, and he had to give up MTV, which was originally about the same. Filming resumed, and Richard and Cullen occupied two of the orangutan positions, and even Chuck and Little Richard rushed to ask for two places.

The rest was taken by Elvis, Elvis, who was pulled over by Karen and was also very interested in playing the orangutan.

At this moment, the personnel combination of this MTV is simply amazing. Not to mention Alex himself, let's just say that these orangutans, who don't even show their faces, are worth millions of dollars. Even the guest appearance of the landlord's aunt is a very famous rock singer like Jerry, who is the only person who has a chance to show his face in the MTV segment other than Alex.

Jerry has no interest in playing an orangutan. He has been in a big trouble lately, making a mess of his marriage, not only often cheating, but also having many illegal marriages. This has left him in trouble with lawsuits, and some critics have already decided that Jerry's actions have ruined his musical future.

His time in the rock music industry was not long, but his influence was great. With a unique combination of country music and rhythm and blues, his piano style, singing style, and even lifestyle have influenced contemporaries and successors. He always wanted to be the king of rock and roll, but this dream was almost lost in his own hands.

"Boss. You've got to pull me! All I have to do is show my face in your MTV. Nothing else! ”

Jerry? Plum? Lewis has been wandering for many years, not only has a lot of birds, but also has a very thick skin. Originally, Alex didn't want to pay attention to this guy, but he changed his mind. Jerry also made a lot of money for the record company. It also makes sense to give a hand.

So let him make a cameo appearance as a landlady. After he pretended to be a woman, he looked so pleasing to the eye that everyone wanted to laugh.

In order not to waste the celebrity effect of those five who played orangutans. Alex Streak added an extra shot at the end of the scene, which is an MTV tidbit, and asked them to take off their hoods, and then laugh and laugh and make a fuss. I believe that those fans who watched MTV insisted on seeing the most reluctant, will definitely be frightened by the identities of these five music superstars.

"I wanted to make a low-budget MTV, but I didn't expect it...... Alas, now even those people's appearance fees can't be earned! ”

Alex was a little depressed when he saw things get out of control, but he quickly put them behind him. Because it's fun enough to shoot MTV with this group of live treasures, there are a lot of accidents, one time is that Cullen deliberately came to the front to grab the camera, and one time is Elvis Presley's dance steps at a glance You know that it is Elvis himself, and one time Jerry forgets his lines, etc.

All in all, working with this group of people who know all too well is more than enough to achieve.

They didn't take this MTV seriously at all, and they all played around with a little episode of boring life. Originally, Alex didn't take this MTV seriously, but the more he invested, the more nervous he became about the effect of MTV.

Fortunately, after the shooting, he took a look at the shooting footage and found that it felt pretty good, although these people don't take MTV as a job, but the level is still there after all, and the result is not bad to take it easy.

After the MTV filming of "Lazy Song" was completed, Alex did not make the post-production work very long, and it was completed in a few days and broadcast on ABC TV. In the lyrics, Alex also made a special advertisement for ABC TV, which I believe will have a certain effect.

This song, with its weird lyrics and relaxed style, quickly caught people's attention. Originally, Alex thought that there would naturally be people who liked it, and there shouldn't be many, after all, this song is not a mainstream love song, nor is it a positive energy song. There should be more annoying people.

But what I didn't expect was that after the broadcast of "Lazy Song", it became popular all of a sudden, and it was a very popular kind. Fans such as the hippies, the Beat Generation, and teenagers were ecstatic about the song, and the hippies, the Beat Generation, and others even sang the song together at their rally.

If Alex were to attend such a gathering, he would be surprised to see a large crowd gathered around a few people wearing orangutan hoods, dancing and singing "The Lazy Song". This seems to be the case not only in the United States, but also in European countries as far away as the oceans.

The Lazy Song soon became one of the cultures of hippies, who believed that humans should be lazy so that it would be good for both people and the planet.

"We'd rather stay in bed all day than run and fight with other people! The more lazy people there are, the easier it is for peace to achieve! ”

These people understand "Lazy Song" in this way, and they seem to do the same. They are lazy all day long, they don't do anything, they don't think about anything, they just wander around, they eat when they have something to eat, and sleep when they don't have anything to eat.

Conversely, people who don't like the song also hate hippies, think they are too passive and lazy, and even call them parasites of society.

"These people are idle all day, dirty and sloppy. Hey, this generation is all down! ”

Those people of the older generation are very unaccustomed to the new generation, and think that the United States will eventually be destroyed at the hands of these young people. Their views are too extreme, in fact, the future US President George W. Bush was also a member of the hippies when he was young. However, Bush Jr. later joined the mysterious organization "Skull and Bones," and only then did he have the capital and connections to participate in politics.

Anyway, the song was still popular all over the world, which really surprised Alex. However, strictly speaking, the song still has a lot of stylistic innovations, and many sensitive music creators have taken a lot of inspiration from it.

Alex's copycat behavior did not cause damage to this world, but in fact diversified the works of this era and actively promoted the birth of various talents. Whether it's music, fiction, or technology, what he does has given those professionals a reference point, and a lot of nourishment has been drawn from it, and a large number of talents and innovations have emerged.

Compared with the original world world, the world and era where Alex was reborn appear to be more active and changeable, and the development of society, culture, and science and technology is more rapid. All sorts of new things that didn't appear or that would take decades to emerge have sprung up. (To be continued......)
