This director only makes bad movies

Seeing this title, three questions popped up in Schneider's head.

What's the meaning? What does this title mean?

"300 Spartans" was filmed by him, so what does it have to do with Xu Nan?

With a hint of doubt, Schneider continued to read.

"Oh my god, Director Xu Nan, how could you make "300" so beautiful?"

"Yesterday was the day when Chinese director Xu Nan's work "The 300" was released. As a fan of his, I booked a movie ticket early through the ticket purchase software and went to the theater early in the morning to watch it. Not even my girlfriend."

"I entered the theater with great expectations. I wanted to see a wonderful copycat movie that was different from mainstream movies. Unexpectedly, I ended up seeing a mediocre and boring response."

"At the beginning of the movie, there is a picture of an old Spartan standing on a cliff holding a baby. At the bottom of the screen, there is the baby's skeleton."

"The composition of the movie is perfect, especially the cold iron-gray color scheme, coupled with the dubbing narration. In just a few dozen seconds, the audience is immersed in the epic atmosphere of the movie, letting their emotions follow Spartan The story and the ups and downs.”

"I had just watched the feature film for one minute, and I had a bad premonition, but with my trust in director Xu Nan, I still watched it with determination."

"But the final result disappointed me."

"The plot of the movie is very simple. It tells the story of Spartan King Leonidas leading his 300 Guards in a duel with the Persian army of 500,000, and finally died heroically."

"The whole movie can be said to be very beautiful and exciting, whether it is the casting, the plot, the rhythm, the dubbing, or the color matching. In short, every aspect of the movie is very good. In my conscience , this is a very good and classic epic movie.”

"But the question is, Xu Nan, how can you make such a wonderful movie? You are the pioneer of copycat movies. The movie you make should be completely different from the movies on the market. It should be full of rebellion from the current vulgar movies. You should show your unique aesthetics, how can you learn from those vulgar directors and make good movies in the normal sense."

"If I want to watch a good movie, I can open a video website, I can go to Blockbuster to rent a video tape, and I can watch dozens of good movies casually."

"But there are only two copycat films on the market currently. I thought "300" would be the third one, which would enrich the spiritual world of us fans. I didn't expect you to be like those vulgar directors. , made a normal movie, which is a betrayal to us fans."

"Copycat is unique, incomparable, and mind-blowing. Your talents should all be used in this kind of special movie. How can you make a normal movie?"

"Director Xu Nan from China, I am so disappointed in you. I thought you were different from those ordinary directors, and the films you made were full of unique ideas. I didn't expect that you eventually degenerated, gave up your advantages, and learned Those ordinary directors.”

"I spurn you, I spurn you fiercely. Your betrayal is comparable to Judas's betrayal of Jesus."

"You actually made the movie so beautiful. I'm so disappointed and I will never forgive you."

After reading the movie review, Schneider was so upset that he didn't know what to say.

What does this mean? It’s a mistake to make a good movie with Xu Nan, right?

The point is, the movies he made are not good to watch either.

Also, "300 Spartans" was not filmed by Xu Nan at all, but by him.

What is this?

Schneider looked specifically at the author of the film review and found that it was actually written by the famous film critic Francis.

This is a very famous film critic with great influence in the circle of film critics. In terms of horizontal comparison, he is probably equivalent to Cameron in the director world.

How could such a film critic admit that the movie was wrong?

Schneider instinctively sensed something was wrong, and he smelled a conspiracy in this film review.

There are many comments below the movie review.

"Yeah, how could Xu Nan make the movie so beautiful?"

"There are already enough vulgar directors. It's hard to find a director who is not vulgar, but I didn't expect that he would eventually fall."

"He should continue to make copycat movies so that he can showcase his talent."

"I'm so disappointed. I thought Xu Nan was a special director, but I didn't expect that he was still an ordinary director after all."

"Is it possible that after copycats become porcelain, no one will take pictures?"

"I can't lose my copycat, just like the West can't lose Jerusalem."

"I decided to go back and watch The Hobbit and Atlantic Rim. This is the only spiritual food I have left."

Looking at these movie reviews, Schneider felt a little strange.

It’s not like these people haven’t noticed that this movie review is wrong from beginning to end.

He wanted to tweet something, but gave up after thinking about it.

Let’s take a look first.

Francis is a very famous film critic. After his film reviews were published, they aroused enthusiastic responses.

No matter how popular "300" is, it will never occupy all the news, let alone "300" and "300" have such similar names. When the media reports on this movie, they will also Take three thousand warriors with you.

Therefore, this movie review quickly spread and aroused the suspicion of the audience.

"Francis, what are you writing about?"

"If I remember correctly, "300 Spartans" is Schneider's work, and "3000" is Xu Nan's work."

"It's understandable that others see the wrong movie. How can a famous film critic like Francis see the wrong movie?"

"Here we go again, right? This Chinese director wants to repeat what happened with Martin, right?"

"Is there a possibility that Francis really didn't understand the movie?"

"It's funny, isn't it? Everyone, please laugh."

"That's enough, stop laughing, don't think of me as a fool."

This film review quickly aroused controversy. Audiences are not fools. Although American audiences sometimes lack common sense, they cannot be fooled twice.

Even some smart viewers started to get angry.

"That's enough, I don't want to be thought of as a fool anymore."

"Maybe this Chinese director thinks he is smart, but your self-righteous smartness will only make me angry."

"Do you really think you are the only smart person in this world?"

The response on the Internet was fierce, and everyone was criticizing.

Then, the box office results were released the next day.

"300" grossed US$25 million in a single day.

"3000" grossed US$1.1 million in a single day.

The box office of 3,000 Warriors unexpectedly increased fourfold against the trend.

what's the situation?
