A person who looks harmless suddenly plays the villain in a movie.
So, how will he perform?
Will he end up being a positive character as the performance goes on?
However, the Joker in the new issue of "Batman" comics is an extremely crazy and vicious character. Is Lu Yuan suitable for the role?
In the cinema, everyone was talking about Lu Yuan.
Everyone is curious about what Lu Yuan’s version of the Joker will look like and whether he can control it.
Some people are born to be the protagonist. Even if he plays the villain, everyone will talk about him.
His appearance directly overshadowed everyone else's brilliance.
Harvey, who played Batman, smiled bitterly as he saw the voices of "Joker" and "Lu Yuan" everywhere in the cinema.
In the first Batman movie, his popularity was still quite strong, but in the second...
He basically has no hot topics for discussion.
He is the protagonist.
But he was treated like a supporting role. It is really a tragic story.
"Don't worry, everyone will be talking about you after the movie comes out!"
"After the movie comes out, I'm afraid no one will talk about me anymore."
"???"
The comforting voice of his wife Linda had the opposite effect on Harvey's ears, and the bitter smile on his face deepened.
After the movie is released, I guess I will become a tool for promoting the movie...
This era seems to have quietly begun to change.
…
"Batman 2" was officially released with a familiar brainwash advertisement.
Sitting in the corner, An Xiao quietly watched the prologue of "Batman 2".
This begins with a scene of a bank robbery by gangsters wearing clown masks.
At the beginning, the atmosphere was very tense. All the people wearing clown masks were making various preparations for robbery, but at the same time, there was an invisible internal strife among the clown masked gangsters.
"That's a lot of money. If the clown is smart, he should drive a bus here..."
"I bet the Joker told you to kill me once you get the money."
"No, no, no, I want to kill the bus driver!"
"Bus driver? What bus driver!"
"boom!"
Amidst the chaos, a bus crashed into the camera.
A masked clown was knocked to the ground by the bus. When he was loading bags of money onto the bus, without any warning, the masked clown with green hair shot and killed the bus driver, the clown.
"You think you're so smart..."
"If you pay your people, you will end up like them..."
"The bad guys in the past were very principled. Honor, respect..."
"Look at you, what principles can you talk about?"
"What fucking principles can you talk about!"
On the ground, the bank manager who had been lying motionless suddenly began to speak. He stared at the green-haired masked clown and questioned angrily.
The masked clown walked towards him step by step, then bent down and stuffed a smoke bomb with a fuse into his mouth.
At this moment, he suddenly felt fear, accompanied by a strong sense of regret.
In the messy bank, the manager's roar gradually faded away...
"My principle is that what you can't kill will make you..."
The roar was responded to by a very calm yet trembling voice.
The voice hesitated, as if thinking about something.
Following this brief silence, he carefully took off the mask with one hand.
“Even weirder!”
Under the mask...
Green hair, white face, heavy smokey dark circles under the eyes and...
Eyes so weird that they make people tremble in the depths of their souls, staring at the camera, the serious expression and the grinning lipstick smile printed under the deliberate capture of the camera are very impactful!
The man under the mask...
A clown too!
A real clown!
Then……
After saying this, he suddenly smiled.
The smile was playful, but it also reflected the madness and evil of a madman...
After a brief smile, he stood up under the frightened and trembling eyes of the manager who was biting the smoke bomb, then turned around and walked step by step towards the bus.
In one hand he held the mask he had worn before, while in the other he held a gun...
His back looked unhurried and he did not have any of the tension of having committed a heinous crime; instead, he looked like he was taking a walk.
He got on the bus and closed the door.
The bus started.
The fuse of the smoke bomb was pulled open as the bus started moving...
The smoke gradually became hazy...
The bus blended into a sea of other identical buses and gradually left the camera.
…
It only took a few minutes from the time the clown appeared to the time he left.
The cinema was quiet at first, with everyone staring at the big screen.
"It's Lu Yuan!"
"This clown is Lu Yuan!"
"Oh my god, I didn't recognize you!"
“…”
But then, bursts of screams rang out instantly, and several fans stood up and pointed at the big screen with expressions of disbelief on their faces.
For some reason, the group of fans who sat down had the image of Lu Yuan's laughter as the clown, as well as his unbridled and extremely arrogant image, popping up in their minds.
This thing seems to be poisonous and has been imprinted in everyone's mind.
The next plot is the one where Batman appears.
but……
Batman, who should have been the protagonist, now feels boring in everyone's heart.
Although, Batman's fighting movements, including the black technology such as motorcycles and Batmobiles, are indeed very attractive.
but……
It's just attractive.
That's all.
Compared to the extremely upright Batman, people seem to want the Joker to appear on the screen again.
I don’t know why…
Yes, I like it very much.
The brief laughter, the evil expression, and the leisurely back figure that just appeared were like hypnosis, and deeply grabbed his attention!
It’s hard to believe that he is Lu Yuan!
…
“This acting is amazing!”
"I even think Lu Yuan has gone crazy, or a madman is acting in this movie!"
"This clown seems to have no principles, but it seems that he has his own principles..."
"At the same time, every scene here is extremely realistic, especially the hospital explosion scene, I couldn't even see any special effects..."
World film master Nino listened quietly to his son's shocked voice beside him.
It was obvious that his son was indeed shocked by Lu Yuan's explosive acting skills.
In fact, Nino himself felt that the guy playing the Joker was a lunatic.
This character is incredible!
It was so subversive that even he found it hard to believe that the madman on the screen was the extremely sincere Lu Yuan in real life.
When his son's various shocked noises stopped abruptly, he turned his head.
"This is not a special effect. The hospital, the bus, the street... except for the bullets that hit people in the movie, everything else is real!"
"What!"
After hearing this voice, the middle-aged man next to Nino was stunned.
"I know Director Wei. He is a director who pursues realism very much. And this is always the case with Far From Home's movies. The explosions and car crashes in Final Destination are basically more than 80% real..."
“…”
“…”
…
“If you’re good at something, you can’t do it for nothing…”
“…”
When facing the gangsters, this evil and weird clown responded to everyone's words calmly.
"I have a wife. She is very beautiful, just like you. She told me that I worried too much and I should smile more. She liked gambling and owed a lot of loan sharks. One day, they cut her face. We had no money for surgery and she couldn't stand it. I just wanted to see her smile again. I wanted her to know that I didn't care about the scars, so I put a razor in my mouth and made myself like this, but you know what? She couldn't stand the way I looked, so she left me. Now I finally see the funny side of things and I always laugh..."
When holding the heroine hostage, the clown told the story to her very seriously, as if he was telling a joke.
"To them, you're just a freak, just like me!"
When he was caught, in the interrogation room, he taunted Batman, as if he was taunting the wonder of fate.
“…”
“…”
An Xiao felt his scalp tingling in the corner of the cinema.
Every word of the clown and every scene were vivid in An Xiao's mind.
His madness, his calmness, his sarcasm, his mockery, and his sneer...
Everything was like hypnosis, catching everyone's attention.
In "Batman 2", everyone seems to have become a supporting role at this moment, and even Batman himself has truly become a tool to advance the plot.
In the early stage, An Xiao clearly felt that Harvey, the actor who played Batman, was being led by Lu Yuan from beginning to end. Whether it was his acting skills, momentum, or even every move, he was crushed by the Joker played by Lu Yuan...
Crush till you can't breathe.
With this movie, Lu Yuan might become a god!
This is something that goes deep into your bones.
…
"This movie could really hit the box office record. If the situation turns around, it might even break the record of 'War and Roses'!"
"Oh my god, this is such a horrible acting... My mind is full of the Joker now. His laugh is poisonous. I really feel like I've been poisoned!"
“Oh my god, this…”
“…”
On the other side, when "Batman 2" was playing to the end, countless voices suddenly broke out.
Everyone stared at the screen in amazement!
The clown seems to be a person who tests human nature!
He is desperate, but at the same time he has an indescribable weird charm. He is obviously a villain, but somehow he touches a nerve deep in the hearts of many people!
"I may be the most tragic leading man in Hollywood history."
“…”
Amidst this discussion, the voice of Harvey, who plays Batman, was also heard.
The voice sounded weak.
Then……
With a hint of despair.
He was crushed to pieces by Lu Yuan.
Maybe, in this "Batman 2", he is a supporting role, and Lu Yuan is the protagonist?
He lowered his head.
I actually had such a ridiculous idea.
