It’s not just "Thor" that made the topic of publicity, and the premiere of the well-known "City of Chaos" is no exception. Carla Faith got up early in the morning and sent a text message to Murphy, agreeing to have lunch at noon, and then on the Internet. Scrolling around with social networking sites to check the actual audience response of "City of Chaos" and the trend of public opinion on the Internet, of course, it is indispensable to pay attention to the reputation of the competitor "Thor".

Carla Faith first opened IMDB. The just-released "Thor" and "City of Chaos" were on the homepage. She didn't care about "Thor" and clicked on the web page of "City of Chaos". The first thing she saw was 25698 users. High score with an average of 8.8 points!

Pulling down the webpage, a user named Daisy’s film review was placed on the top. IMDB’s new like function has nearly 10,000 likes.

"In some ways, Murphy's protagonist Chris Dan in "City of Chaos" is similar to superheroes. They are all doing the action to save the city, but the superhero is even greater and Dehumanized, they are noble and completely detached from humanity, and they are born to save the city and the earth, and Chris Dan is more like an ordinary person, he has neither the ability to transcend humans, nor the character to detach from humans, to save New York completely It is from a personal standpoint to complete revenge!"

"It is this completely personal process that gradually awakened Chris Dann’s heroic consciousness, but his protection is completely different from that of superheroes. Superheroes give people hope. Chris Dann brings But there is only fear!"

"Incarnation of fear can overcome fear, and incarnation of fear can bring power. Murphy's film explores the impact of fear and fear from a unique perspective, which has never been seen in Hollywood films before! On the one hand, "City of Chaos" is great enough to engrave film history!"

"In past Hollywood films, all heroic protagonists always have a large number of admirers and supporters. But the truth is that true heroes are always lonely, not only because of their superior abilities, which makes them qualified to stand by his side. There are not many people, but also because, in order to have such abilities, he has to give up many things that ordinary humans have, including feelings, including the energy to deal with the world, looking at it from a realistic point of view, just like Chris Dan. "

"I have always felt that Murphy Stanton is a very realistic idealist. The idealism and innocence he upholds are not the same thing. Innocence is because he has not experienced the polishing of reality and still maintains a natural innocence, and idealism People know how complicated the world is constructed by social rules, and there is darkness behind the light. Just like "City of Chaos", despite the dark and oppressive society, human nature is inherently easy to deflect toward evil and selfishness. Fei never believed that society had only a dark side. He gave Chris Dann hope and the courage to overcome fear. Isn't he saying that for people with courage, society is not only dark!"

"If you think that there is only darkness in this society, and you can only see darkness in Murphy Stanton's films, it is because you are broken by society like a steel bar and then compromised."

"Complexity is a neutral word, because realist idealists will see the darkness of this society, but this will not squeeze out the beauty of this society that he knows, and beauty and darkness together construct the complexity of this society."

"Darkness always coexists with beauty. This is "City of Chaos" and this is our social reality."

After reading this fan review, Carla Faith only feels that Murphy is really great. He is simply the most philosophical and thoughtful director in Hollywood.

It's a pity that in this world, apart from Gal Gadot, probably no one knows Murphy better than her. Her best friend may have considered a small part of it, but it will definitely not be interpreted like this fan. Like that.

Murphy gave the film a deeper connotation, not for discussing fear and reflecting social reality, but just because it can attract fans and improve the film and his director...

How do you say that? By the way, it's called style!

However, different from what Carla Faith thought, the comment of the fan named Daisy seemed to be a reaction to the ideas of many fans. In the second most like comment, she saw a similar tone.

""City of Chaos" is a true story, about the choice between sunlight and darkness, and about the fear behind the hero. The real world is that each individual is as complex and diverse as the society itself, not like fluorescent lights converge on heroes. , Only show their beauty."

"The real world is that almost no one is unfettered all his life, and not everyone can despise their bottom line in their entire life. That is your weakest place and your source of strength. A true hero is not without fear, because Only when you feel terrified, can you move forward!

"Murphy Stanton uses film art to bring us a wonderful real world!"

Afterwards, Carla Faith clicked on the "Thor" section and saw the score of 7.3 and couldn't help but smile. This is the score given by comic fans. Afterwards, the number of passers-by viewers who saw the film increased, I am afraid that it will soon fall. 7 points or less.

The top two comments seem to be sent by fans of Marvel Comics themselves, and they seem a little disappointed with this film.

"The film is lower than expected. It is more like a biographies launched for the Avengers. There are no highlights in the fight, and the plot is weaker. The only thing that impresses the most is the special effects and film settings during the viewing of the movie to ensure that the audience can be stunned. Outside the sky, get an exciting and thrilling movie-watching experience. It seems that all the staff are focusing on how to express the palace. The performance of the actors is simply a disaster. Chris Hemsworth can only show me the eyeballs, Natalie Bo Terman successfully incarnates a middle-aged woman, coupled with cliché plots and boring fights, and tells the story qualifiedly without any impression. Later, let's hand it over to Fulian..."

This user only gave six points for the film that just passed, and the second-ranked comment below gave five points.

"The plot is really nutritious. Not only can it not withstand scrutiny, but it also complicates simple things. The personality changes that could have been very delicate, but also simple and rude to complete it in one scene. The background is magnificent, but it was filmed in a very small style and rhythm It’s too procrastinated, the climax is also chaotic, the scene between God and the world is too unconventional, and the accents are so chaotic."

Carla Faith turned off IMDB and opened Rotten Tomatoes to take a look. The difference on this website is even more obvious. The freshness of Rotten Tomatoes in "City of Chaos" is 84%, and the overall score is 8.2; the freshness of "Thor" is 100%. No. 63, overall score 5.7...

Later, she logged on to Facebook again, and the section about movies was also lively.

While waiting for the web page to refresh, Carla Faith briefly analyzed the current audience response of "City of Chaos" and "Thor". The former has a good reputation, not to mention the overwhelming reputation; the latter has a worrisome reputation and is likely to appear at the box office. Insufficient staying power.

The Facebook page was refreshed, and Carla Fess flipped through it for a while. Just like IMDB, the social networking site still praised "City of Chaos" without using the network navy.

"Murphy Stanton used "City of Chaos" to perfectly explain how a person should grow up and how to make oneself truly strong: overcome inner fears, exercise oneself, adhere to the moral bottom line and unparalleled self-control. Chris -Dane is the shadow of each of us, that's why it's so charming."

Compared with "City of Chaos", Facebook also has a lot of voices discussing "Thor", but few people think this is a very wonderful film.

"The story of Thor appears pale and asymmetrical to the scene."

"The movie is not too interesting, because the narrative of the story is a bit out of control."

"As a fan of comics, I am quite disappointed after watching the movie."

"The plot is too mentally retarded, and the pictures and fights have a sense of petty trouble, plus the characterization is too facial, which is a very ordinary movie."

After reading this, Carla Faith is very clear that perhaps he can do something about word-of-mouth and pull down Thor.

Since most Hollywood companies and North American theater companies seldom adopt the exclusive screening mode, the number of theaters for "Thor" and "City of Chaos" has reached 4000, and they overlap in quite a few films. show.

In this way, there will be a direct conflict between the two films in the film arrangement. The current film arrangement rates of "Thor" and "City of Chaos" are both about 30%. If the audience's reputation of one of the films is mediocre, the follow-up performance Weakness will definitely be reduced by the theater, so that another film's schedule will be increased to an appropriate degree.

Twentieth Century Fox has an advantage over Walt Disney in theaters, and on this basis, it is entirely possible to obtain a higher platoon than it is now.

Although the audience's ticket purchase choice is not you or me, but at the beginning of this summer vacation, audiences who like blockbuster movies will inevitably increase the possibility of choosing "City of Chaos" if they are affected by the word-of-mouth effect.

After entering the management of Fox in the 20th century for so many years, Carla Fiss has already become a veteran in this regard.

After checking the time, Carla Faith turned off the computer, walked out of the room, took the elevator to the restaurant on the second floor of the Waldorf Astoria, sat down at the reserved seat, and waited patiently for Murphy and Gal Gadot come.

Since it was still early, she asked for a glass of water and continued to think while drinking it.

After Murphy comes, you can also ask him about his opinions in this regard. This guy is usually average in actual operation skills, but he can come up with many constructive opinions.
