Chapter 372: The Empire Strikes Back

After the painting of "Dawn Reappears", "The Empire Strikes Back" immediately rushed up to take over the baton!

DreamWorks surprised everyone by continuing to release the second film in the Star Wars franchise before people could react.

Generally speaking, after the first part is a big hit, it will take a while for the second part to be launched. Some experts believe that the market itself needs to have a recovery period, just like the fish in the water, and cannot be overfished. If movies with the same theme are released consecutively, it may cause aesthetic fatigue to the audience.

But they meet Alex, who usually does things people don't expect. As early as the filming of "Star Wars", Alex already wanted to release the three movies together so that the audience could watch it happily. Later, under the dissuasion of the marketing department, he did not do such an unconventional thing.

Still, he made the second movie release soon.

When the craze of the first film had not cooled down, people were still reminiscing about the plot of the film and were eager to see the following content, so he threw out "The Empire Strikes Back". Because Alex has a very strict management of the crew, those reporters can't get a glimpse of the content of the filming, which makes people think that Alex is only filming the first part.

When the news came out that the second film had been filmed and was even being approved and was about to be released, everyone thought it was gossip from some newspaper, or a news headline conjured up by a reporter.

What I didn't expect was that this turned out to be true!

DreamWorks will make the news public. It immediately attracted all the eyes of the people. Especially those viewers who have become Star Wars fans, they are all excited like a holiday, screaming to go to the cinema.

Although in DreamWorks, some people think that Alex's approach does not conform to the laws of the market, and does not follow the release rhythm of the movie trilogy and so on. But there was nothing they could do to stop Alex, and when he decided on something, they couldn't convince him without a strong reason.

Alex did this just to give it a try.

In later generations, the starting point of the novel in the site. Which popular book is not updated very quickly? The more diligent the update. The more people who watch, the stronger the popularity. It is also an entertainment product, and Alex believes that movies and novels should also follow this rule, that is, once the rhythm of "renewal" is mastered. That popularity snowballed. Bigger and bigger. More and more.

Of course, movies are a bit different from web novels. Because movies need to be shown in movie theaters, and web novels are not limited by the venue. When the marketing department persuaded Alex. It was for this reason that he did not release the three movies together so quickly.

When the potential of the first film is fully explored, and the popularity is still gaining momentum not long after the first film is finished, it will be quite a good way to accumulate popularity if the second film is released next. You don't even need to publicize it, you can just release it.

Some people are worried that the audience will be aesthetically fatigued, thinking that too many movies of the same genre will cause everyone to be tired of watching.

Alex doesn't think there's a problem.

Just imagine, if the movie itself is good, if you like to watch it, then you will definitely watch it when the second part is launched, and if you don't like it, it is unlikely that you will watch it even if you promote it in the future. Only when everyone is still interested, the same series of films will be launched in one go, which will definitely make the number of viewers rise.

The reaction of the market formalized this view, and the box office of "Empire Strikes Back" inherited the popularity of the first part, and did not decrease in the number of viewers and attendance, but was stronger than the first part.

In the hearts of the audience, there has always been the chaotic relationship between Luke, Solo, and Princess Leia, as well as the reaction of the empire and the anger of the Black Warrior after the Death Star was blown up.

If you want to find out, you have to go to the cinema!

"The Empire Strikes Back" inherits the plot of the previous part, although the Death Star has been killed, but the power of the empire is still not there. In search of the rebels, the Empire sent thousands of probes across the galaxy, one of which landed on the secret base of Huff.

On the screen, Luke and the others are discovered by the Imperial Army!

The Black Knight, armed with a lightsaber, chased after him, and Luke and Princess Leia, who were not yet his opponents, were defeated and retreated. Seeing that the two were about to be captured, an accident happened!

"Buzz!"

A new lightsaber appears in the sky, blocking the Black Warrior's powerful attacks! I saw that the person who came was a mysterious man wearing a black robe and hood, he was agile and powerful, and he was on par with the black warriors.

"Buzz! Airplanes! Airplanes! ”

"Bang! Cha! ”

The lightsabers kept waving and colliding, and the strong confrontation set off a huge storm, although the Jedi knights were not afraid of the unexpected things of the lightsabers, but the ordinary people behind them could not withstand the attack of natural disasters. As a last resort, Luke and Princess Leah lead the rebels to evacuate the planet.

"Let's go!"

Luke reminded the mysterious man that he was concerned that the powerful Jedi was no match for the Black Knight and the like. This time, in addition to the Black Knights themselves, there were also several Dark Jedi Knights who were hunting down Luke and the others. Although they were told to use a plan to separate the Black Samurai from their men at the beginning, the longer the time dragged on, the more unfavorable the situation became for them.

Because of this, they want to leave the planet as soon as possible.

"You go first!" The mysterious man said.

Soon, the Black Knight's men arrived, and it turned into a wheel war. I don't know if it was because the black warrior held his own identity or for some other reason, he didn't join the siege, but put away his lightsaber and stood aside.

Due to the large number of opponents, the hood of the mysterious man was cut off, revealing his true colors! When seeing this scene, many viewers were secretly surprised: "It turned out to be him!" ”

It turns out that the actor of this mysterious person is the familiar Chinese actor Bruce Lee!

His appearance made those viewers who like kung fu feel extremely excited, hoping to see more kung fu fight scenes below, and Bruce Lee did not disappoint them, even abandoning the lightsaber and using fists to attack.

"Force Photon Punch!"

I saw that after Bruce Lee threw away the lightsaber, his fist emitted a light like a lightsaber, and he was not afraid of the lightsaber and dared to fight it hard, every blow could shake the opponent's lightsaber away, even if he was slashed by the lightsaber, he could quickly block it with a photon fist.

"Wow! This one is so strong! ”

The audience was thrilled to see it, and they were immediately attracted by this kind of kung fu that dared to use the flesh to resist the lightsaber. After Alex's modification, the only one who can kill the Jedi is the Jedi, and there is no other way. And the most common means of attack of the Jedi are lightsabers.

In the first part, people see the indestructible power of lightsabers, and nothing can stop them! But in the second part, a different Jedi suddenly appeared, and he could also use a lightsaber, but after throwing away the lightsaber, he looked even more powerful when he used two fists!

In the course of this fight sequence, it is learned from the Black Knight that Bruce Lee is a Jedi from a remote galaxy in the Eastern Galaxy, a Jedi who belongs to another genre. The most powerful of this group of Jedi is that they integrate the Force into their bodies, and are able to form lightsaber-like forms in various parts of their bodies.

This ability is very powerful, powerful enough to use its body to resist lightsabers without taking damage. Faced with this ability, the Dark Jedi began to panic, as their enemies were not afraid of their own weapon, the lightsaber!

However, the Jedi of this faction still have weaknesses and are not invincible.

The audience soon heard the black knight on the screen shouting, "Don't panic! His fists are shorter than the length of his lightsaber, and he can kill by attacking parts he can't defend! ”

"Let's go! It's too late to go any further! After smashing over a dark Jedi, Luke shouted and began to retreat.

In the end, what they saw was that under the siege of many Jedi, Bruce Lee made a big move to shake away the dark Jedi around him, and then left the planet with them in a flying machine.

Originally, the Black Warrior planned to use the Force to pull the flying machine to the ground, but when he had just used his power to play a little role, Bruce Lee also used his power to stop the Black Warrior's movements, and used the Force to wrap the flying machine, protecting it tightly.

"W-This is amazing!"

Both Luke and Princess Leah were shocked by Bruce Lee's tricks, as well as the moviegoers, who began to wonder in their hearts: "Did the last two learn from this Jedi Knight from the East?" Such a powerful master will definitely be able to learn a lot of powerful tricks! ”

They only guessed half right, Bruce Lee claimed that their faction only accepted one heir, and after testing, he chose Princess Leah as his heir. To Luke, who was slightly disappointed, he said, "You are not suitable for practicing my Force skills!" Someone else can teach you more advanced tricks, though! ”

The Jedi, who calls himself the Master of the East, instructs Luke to find Master Yoda and leaves with Princess Leah. Leaving Luke alone to embark on the path of learning the arts, Luke lost his way halfway through, and it was only under the prompting of Kenobi's soul that he found Yoda's secluded planet.

Veteran fans have long recognized that the person who plays Kenobi is Morris, Mr. President of DreamWorks, and they can't help but laugh in their hearts when they see this scene: "This guy was a trick in the first part, and when he came to the second part, he still popped up from time to time to be scary!" It's so much fun! ”

Of course, the first three Star Wars movies are still humorous and funny in general, and nothing very sad happens. Even if it is the abuse of the master, it quickly makes the protagonist rise up, and there is no depression at all. Because of this, these movies make people like them more and more.
