Chapter 208:
May 1.
Ameriken's Times Square in the heart of Manhattan in New York City is home to one of Amerigen's largest Broadway theaters.
Broadway Cinemas, as a film and television giant with a history of more than 100 years, has entered this industry when the world film industry is still in the stage of development, and there have been countless excellent films that have gone out from here over the years and then spread to all over the world.
It can be said that Broadway is a giant of the film and television industry that can influence the whole world, and it belongs to the kind of real stampede that the world film industry will have to be earthquaked for three days and three nights.
This also creates a problem that Broadway is the most popular theater chain, and the competition is really big, all movies want to be released here, and almost every schedule is crowded with excellent movies.
But there are obviously not many that can attract people's attention and fight their way out of the encirclement.
Unless the quality of your work is godly, it won't work at all, because North America is a very strange place, and they don't recognize actors and directors very much.
Even if it is a work shot by the world's top director, if it is not good-looking, it is not good-looking, as long as the quality is not good, it can be scolded by people the next day.
In Hanxia, the movies made by the director, even if they are big bad movies, will go through the entire release process, and the box office will not be very miserable, at most there will be some losses.
But in North America, even if you are a director, as long as the film is not good-looking, that person will really not watch it after reading the film reviews on Rotten Tomatoes and the evaluations of various audiences.
And then three days later, it was not without an international director who went straight to death after being released.
So in this place, if the newcomer really has the material, it is also a place where he can rise quickly, which is a very friendly soil for the newcomer.
The premise is that the newcomer can successfully get through the period when no one cares about it in the early stage.
Now, the Broadway theater is a bustling scene, with everyone picking up tickets or buying movie tickets on the spot, choosing the movie they want to see.
"Please give me a ticket for "Terror on a Rainy Night", thank you."
However....
Just when a bespectacled, stupid-looking black guy took out $50 to buy himself a movie ticket.
The conductor said with an apologetic look, "Oh! Sorry sir, the show of "Rainy Night" is sold out today, you can choose to book the show in two days, can you wait? β
βoh shitοΌβ The black guy was instantly unhappy: "Why is it so fast?" With such a popular movie, why don't you arrange more screenings? β
"I'm sorry, sir, it's not that we don't schedule a show, it's.... You know, this is the new work of the king of thrillers, John Celles. β
"Well, forget it in two days, I can't wait this long, hell! I should have come to the queue early! The black guy said regretfully.
However, just as he was about to leave.
The conductor suddenly said, "Hey, sir, you have another choice." β
The black brother suddenly stopped, and a look of interest appeared in his eyes, because as a house, he finally came out of the house, and if he went back like this, he was still a little unwilling.
In general, North American theaters also have this tradition, if the customer's first choice of movie tickets is sold out, they will recommend some movies of the same type with the customer.
"You can elaborate." The black guy said.
"That's right, if you like to watch thriller-themed movies, there will actually be two thrillers released this time, you can find out."
The conductor took out a small ticket and handed it over: ""Chainsaw, this movie is good, I have seen it myself, in my eyes, it is not worse than "Rainy Night", not many people have discovered this fact yet, I think, for you, sir, it will be a treasure movie." β
"Saw Horror?" The black guy raised his eyebrows and took the movie ticket.
I saw that the movie ticket was printed with the image of a man with a miserable white mask, surrounded by scattered stumps, and the background wall was covered with black blood.
Does it really look like that?
But the information of the starring lineup and the director.
"wuzui,xiayuanmo,zhouming...."The black brother frowned: "Why haven't I heard of any of them?" β
"This is a movie introduced by Hanxia." The conductor explained.
"Hey, hey, hey, no!
β
The black brother, like PTSD, immediately put down the ticket in his hand in shock: "SHIT!" You're trying to lie to me! I've watched Hanxia's thriller movies, and last time I watched a "Disc Immortal Fierce Battle Pen Fairy", I was disgusted and didn't eat for three days! β
He could swear by his grandmother's dentures, it was definitely the worst bad movie he'd ever seen!
Obviously, he is certainly not the only example.
The conductor was helpless, this was not the first time he had sold tickets for "Saw" today, but this was the case with all the encounters.
So far, the number of tickets for the premiere of this movie, they have sold, is less than ten!
Yes, it's so miserable, single-digit tickets, and it's less than half an hour before the first premiere starts!
The conductor could only say, "Sir, you have to try everything, don't you?" I can vouch for it with my life, it's a really good work, even better than Terror on a Rainy Night in some ways! β
"Are you serious?" The black guy frowned.
"Yes!" The conductor nodded affirmatively.
"This...."The black brother fought a lot.
But when you think about it, it's a lot of work to come all the way to Times Square.
It seems that it is okay to believe it once.
He gritted his teeth: "Okay! I bought it! β
He immediately took the ticket and handed out $50.
Soon, the clerk deducted some of the tips after giving change, handed the change to the black brother, and said, "Sir, this is a restricted film, and identity information is required." β
"Give."
The black guy handed over his citizenship card.
The conductor took it and confirmed: "Mr. Beetle Juice?" β
βyesοΌmy niggerγβ Beetle juice nodded.
βokeyγβ The ticket seller nodded: "Please keep an eye on the time, the movie will start in 24 minutes, in Cinema 4." β
After buying the tickets, Beetle Juice began the waiting process, and after the admission time, he entered the No. 4 theater.
And then I found out, well, the situation of this movie, it really doesn't look like it's ordinary miserable.
Because in the entire large theater that can accommodate 480 people, it is rare to find people.
There weren't many people at all!
Roughly counted, there are probably only six or seven of them!
"Okay, it looks like I mistrusted the clerk, it's another street movie." Beetle juice was disappointed.
There must be a reason for the small number of people, either movie garbage or movie garbage, or movie garbage.
There is no fourth possibility.
But who made him already buy the ticket?
So I can only watch it.
Beetle juice sat down bored, waiting for the movie to begin.
Coincidentally, there was someone next to him.
It was a strange-looking man who came to the movie without popcorn, but with a stack of materials, a notebook and a pen.
