Millennium director
Chapter 605 What is a popcorn movie?
The story of "The Legend of Shushan Xianxia" can be regarded as a fusion of the opening chapters of many Xianxia novels that Wu Yuan had read in his previous life.
The male protagonist Jiang Qing, played by Zhu Yawen, went his own way in Shushan Mountain due to the sword-wielding elder. Half of the disciples in Shushan died in the underworld, which directly caused Shushan to fall into a period of dynasty. Regardless of the dissuasion of others, he embarked on the journey with his sword on his back. Shushan, I want to worship in Shushan.
When he paid homage to Shushan, it happened that the turmoil in Shushan began to spread to the entire human world. All the sects of cultivating immortals in the human world were thinking of replacing Shushan and becoming the largest sect.
At a time when various crises and opportunities were coming one after another, facing the expectations of his elders and the eagerness of his peers, Jiang Qing, who had not long since joined Shushan, showed his talent, and finally lived up to expectations and became a member of the Eight Sects. Won first place in the sword fighting competition and defended the reputation of Shushan.
It was also during this sword fight that the feelings and bonds between him and his senior brothers, senior sisters, and junior sisters continued to deepen, creating a chapter of friendship and passion.
Disciple Jiang Qing, in the process of fighting against the righteous and the devil along the way, transformed into the new sword-wielding elder of Shushan, Taiwu Master Jiang Qing!
However, although Jiang Qing temporarily saved Shushan's prestige, the wave of demonic chaos once in five hundred years is about to begin again. How to face this when Shushan as a whole has not yet recovered and is at its weakest in history? The tide of demonic chaos is the next big problem that Jiang Qing needs to solve.
And the story of the first part comes to an end here.
The hook of the Tide of Demonic Chaos left at the end is naturally prepared for the second sequel, and is also one of the foreshadowings of this Xianxia movie universe.
In fact, the story itself is not complicated, it can even be said to be very simple, but after watching it, the film critics and ordinary guests who attended the premiere found it quite exciting.
Superhero popcorn movie, that’s it!
Whether it's "Iron Man" or "Captain America," the main storyline can be summed up in one sentence.
The protagonist faces a certain crisis, explodes under various pressures, and then resolves the crisis, and the world gains temporary peace.
99% of popcorn movies and superhero movies have such a simple main story line.
What everyone goes to the cinema to watch is never the plot, but the splendid special effects, thrilling fights, and shocking visual impact in the movie.
Applying it to the movie "The Legend of Shushan Immortals", what the audience saw was an eight-sect sword fighting conference that was exaggerated to the extreme.
As long as the special effects of this Eight Sects Sword Fighting Conference don't stretch the crotch, the fights are exciting enough, and the scenes are exciting and grand enough, then the audience will have a great time watching it!
Just like the story of "Avengers 1", it takes a long time to prepare the scene, gather superheroes, and engage in internal strife. In the end, it is all for the second half to unite and fight the Battle of New York.
If the final battle in New York isn't exciting, then all the foreshadowing will be meaningless.
And if the final Battle of New York is portrayed brilliantly, even if there are some flaws or loopholes in the previous plot, the flaws will not be concealed.
In "The Legend of Shushan Immortal", both the script and the director's filming focused on depicting the sword fighting competition in the middle and later stages.
Not only did various immortal heroes from the eight sects appear one after another, but the conference was divided into three stages, from the initial personal battle to the battle with monsters to the final large-scale team battle. The rhythm and scenes were getting bigger and bigger, and the emotional impact was intense. Each layer is higher than the next, bringing continuous visual and emotional impact to the audience, and there is no peeing point in the whole process.
In the end, Jiang Qing killed the demon Daozi who had mixed up in this serious sword fight with one sword. He held the injured junior sister in his arms and reached the first place in the sword fight. This satisfied the vanity of most male viewers and was so satisfying. !
China’s own superhero special effects blockbuster is very enjoyable to watch!
[The new work "The Legend of Shushan Xiaxia" in the era of light and shadow held a grand premiere in Beijing, and Zhu Yawen shed tears at the scene! 】
[The premiere was a smash hit, with constant praise from invited guests and film critics! 】
[China’s own Xianxia special effects blockbuster is a benchmark for Hollywood superhero movies. How good is it? 】
["The Legend of Shushan Xiaxia", creating China's own Xianxia universe, full of ambition in the era of light and shadow! 】
[Success or failure, "The Legend of Shushan Immortal" will be released in three days, and the pre-sale of movie tickets has begun! 】
The next day, domestic entertainment media, large and small, all reported "The Legend of Shushan Immortal" as their front page headlines.
However, as a very thorough popcorn commercial film, it is not that easy to get the same critical acclaim as the films before the light and shadow era.
Although the headlines of most entertainment media reports are quite positive (they paid for it), their comments are full of disdain and disdain for popcorn commercials.
The plot is simple, the logic is not clear enough, the main line is monotonous, there are too many special effects, it imitates Hollywood routines, it is too vulgar, etc. There are endless criticisms.
Just like when "Wolf Warrior" came out.
Some domestic film critics always have a little crooked buttocks.
There is a superhero in Hollywood who can save the world by himself, and there is an explosive male protagonist who can save XXX across half the world. This is the embodiment of the American dream and an excellent Hollywood movie.
If similar plots appear in Chinese movies, they are outrageous, vulgar, and brainless. They are a parody of Hollywood and extremely obscene.
"Taken" and "Mission: Impossible" are OK!
"Wolf Warrior" and "Wolf Warrior 2" will not work!
In the same way, Hollywood’s commercial popcorn movies and superhero movies are fine!
China’s commercial popcorn movies, fairy blockbusters, won’t work!
I don’t know how this set of logic was thought up and recognized by many people.
It's obviously the same subject matter and the same routine, but what Hollywood produces is a commercial popcorn movie with flaws that don't hide its flaws.
What China shoots is rubbish.
There are a group of people on the Internet who are sparing no effort to smear "The Legend of Shushan Xiaxia", mocking the imitation and plagiarism of Hollywood movies in the age of light and shadow, and a poor imitation of the master by clowns.
Regarding this kind of remarks, even though Weibo has tried its best to control comments, there is still a group of people spreading it on other online platforms.
This is unstoppable.
Those who are accustomed to Hollywood making such personal hero movies, and some people who have been invaded and even assimilated by Hollywood culture, really cannot accept the same story happening to Asian faces.
In their thinking, for this kind of personal hero movie, the protagonist must be white-skinned, so that he can have a sense of empathy and is correct.
For these people who have been completely brainwashed by culture, the Light and Shadow Era can only ignore it completely.
The only good thing is that such people are only a minority after all and cannot represent the majority of Chinese movie fans.
Just like "Wolf Warrior 2" is scolded no matter how much Wu Jing is ridiculed, it will not affect the box office success of this movie, nor will it affect the continued sales of Wu Jing's new movies.
People who whine and scold people on the Internet can never represent the real public. Even most of these people never go to the cinema and hardly spend money to watch movies, but they love to watch movies.
The real main force of movie watching is the silent majority on the Internet.
And most of these silent people are looking forward to the National Day and the full release of "The Legend of Shushan Fairy"!
China’s own commercial popcorn blockbuster, personal heroism movie, super special effects blockbuster, this is simply too cool! (End of chapter)
