Chapter 923 Not bad, okay. (2/3)

When the clock turned to 6:20, the theater started checking in for tickets.

When Simmons was queuing up with his girlfriend, he turned around and looked at the number of people around him. The number of people was okay, but these people didn't seem to be enough for "The Flash" which took a year to shoot and was grandly released on the Christmas schedule.

Hot?

After all, Dimei's distribution capabilities are the strongest in Hollywood.

Sure enough, after checking the tickets, Simmons and his girlfriend found a seat in the theater and sat down. They then turned around and scanned the theater. It was estimated that three-quarters of the seats were full.

For other film companies, this attendance rate may have opened the champagne and started celebrating.

But there doesn’t seem to be anything to be proud of in Di Mei Pictures’ “The Flash.”

Moreover, the theater that Simmons chose to come to is located in a bustling thoroughfare of New York and has a very large flow of people. Such a theater was not full during the premiere, so you can imagine the attendance rate of other theaters.

He didn't think too much about it. He still had to wait for the movie to be released and see the audience's reactions and comments before he could make an objective evaluation.

After a while, the lights in the theater went out and "The Flash" was officially released.

"The Flash" has been filmed twice, and this is the third one. The plot is very old-fashioned, except that the protagonist gained the superpower of lightning due to a series of adventures in the first part, which made everyone feel bright. This idea

It's really amazing.

As a result, this movie was extremely popular at the time, and according to Hollywood rules, sequels will definitely continue to be made.

So, there was the second part, and now the third part.

After watching for 20 minutes, Simmons frowned slightly and felt a very strange feeling in his heart.

He was irritable, or he wanted to shoot a machine gun in all directions to completely relax him.

This plot is really too predictable.

Continuing the plot of the first and second parts, in the previous part, the protagonist finally defeated the Boss, won, and saved the entire United States and the world.

In the third part, the remnants of the previous part are suddenly subdued by a powerful person, who plots against the protagonist and makes the protagonist lose his superpowers. Then the protagonist tries various ways to restore his powers while constantly fighting against the villain.

Although the movie hasn't finished yet, Simmons can already guess pretty much what's going to happen next.

Too cliche.

In fact, it cannot be said that the script written by the screenwriter is very rubbish, but as we all know, shooting the sequel of a blockbuster movie is inherently a chore.

And once it doesn't meet the audience's taste, various faults will be picked out.

The third "The Flash" couldn't have been poorly made. Although Simmons is not a professional film critic, he still has basic appreciation skills, otherwise he wouldn't be very optimistic about Chinese kung fu movies.

If Simmons were asked to make an evaluation of "The Flash" that is currently in theaters, he would be able to say it right away.

Because he could imagine the next plot without even watching it.

Di Mei Pictures spent almost a year and spent hundreds of millions of astronomical figures to produce this Christmas blockbuster. The plot is good, the director did a good job, the actors acted well, the special effects are quite spectacular, and the scenes are big.

Worth the price.

But Simmons's inner evaluation of this movie is not very high.

No surprises.

Maybe this movie will get a pretty good box office in the end, but he believes that this sequel will definitely not have the sensation that the first movie was when it was released.

He can guarantee his judgment 100%.

In other words, the only bad thing about this movie is that it failed to live up to the expectations of fans and moviegoers for this sequel.

The greater the hope, the greater the disappointment, which will be infinitely magnified.

If another movie is compared at this time, it will undoubtedly be a failure for Dimei Pictures.

Simmons is now a middle-level manager at Amc Cinemas. He has already seen the samples of Oriental DreamWorks. Even at this moment, he still thinks of the heart-stirring and wonderful scenes from time to time.

Especially when he thought about the fact that in order to screen the 3D version of "Transformers", the company's senior management closed a theater. Everyone wore glasses to watch the so-called 3D version, and they immediately understood why the young Chinese genius was so persistent in showing this movie.

Movie making 3d version.

The feeling is absolutely unparalleled, and words cannot describe the shock of being there.

"Does this director have a s in his head? How could Mike be so depressed?"

"Do we have to go through such twists and turns and tribulations every time?" Wucuo Novel Network does not skip words...

At this time, a sudden discussion in the theater quickly interrupted Simmons' distraction.

He raised his head and looked at the screen. It turned out that the plot of the movie at this time happened to be a scene where the protagonist was bullied after losing his superpowers. It was obvious that the audience did not buy it.

Maybe the director set up this plot for the sake of the subsequent explosion, but it seems that the audience doesn't like this plot now.

However, the plot quickly passed by and the audience quickly calmed down and continued watching the movie.

The next plot is just as Simmons guessed. The protagonist slowly recovers his superpowers and defeats every opponent. Finally, when the villain Boss is about to destroy the entire United States, he recovers the abilities he had during the victory in time, defeats the opponent, and saves the entire United States.

.

Looking at the shocking special effects pictures that cost countless dollars to pile up on the screen, Simmons didn't feel a trace of excitement.

In less than two hours, "The Flash" was over.

When the show was over, Simmons couldn't help but ask his girlfriend: "Does it look good? How do you feel?"

"It's not bad!" The girlfriend looked at Simmons curiously after hearing this, wondering why her boyfriend asked like this, "Aren't all popcorn movies like this? It's not bad!"

Simmons heard the answer given by his girlfriend, and then he listened attentively to the comments of every audience member around him, and slowly began to evaluate Di Mei Pictures' Christmas blockbuster in his mind.

It's okay, not bad, that's all it seems.

When he and his girlfriend walked out of the movie theater, he glanced around and saw Jack Richardson staring in his direction not far away with an evil look on his face, as if he wanted to eat him alive.

At this time, Simmons was in a very good mood because he had sorted out some clues. He started teasing him, which was regarded as a reward for what this guy had just done. So when he passed by Jack Richardson, he stopped and took out a bag from his pocket.

He put out a business card and said: "If you encounter any difficulties in the future, you can come to me. After all, we are colleagues."

After saying this, he patted Jack Richardson on the shoulder before leaving with his girlfriend.

Jack Richardson's face turned red and he clenched his fists tightly. However, thinking of his current status, he had no choice but to endure it. There was nowhere to vent the depression and aggrievedness in his heart.

Watching Simmons leave, he lowered his head and looked at the business card in his hand.

"Amc Cinemas, a place where the soul can fly!"

"Simmons, distribution department!"
