July 5th, the day that countless movie lovers have been eagerly anticipating, has finally arrived.
On this day, several major Chinese films, including The Fortress, Ex-Files 2, Kung Fu, and Kung Fu Legend, were released.
In addition, several other popular films imported from abroad also chose to be released on this day.
It can be said that this gives the audience a great deal of choice.
But precisely because there are so many choices, countless people suffer from decision paralysis on this day.
When they arrived at the movie theater, no one knew which movie to watch first.
Inside a movie theater.
The girl kept saying she wanted to see "Shanghai Fortress," but her boyfriend clearly wanted to see "Kung Fu."
"Hmph, if you don't come with me to see 'Shanghai Fortress,' then you don't love me! You know, 'Shanghai Fortress' is a movie starring my idol, so of course I have to go and support it!"
Hearing this, the boy hesitated for a moment and said:
"But 'Kung Fu Hustle' is also a film directed by one of my favorite directors. He also directed 'Summer Fall,' which I showed you before. Didn't you like it back then?"
However, the girl rolled her eyes and said irritably:
"How can that be the same? Now his movie is called 'Kung Fu,' and I'm not interested just by hearing the name."
I find the photos of Shanghai that my idol filmed interesting. Which one are you going to watch?
Anyway, I want to see the amazing Shanghai skyline. If you don't want to go, fine, I'll go by myself!
Seeing the stubborn girl, the boy finally gave in and said:
"Alright then, I'll go with you to see the Shanghai Bunker first, is that alright?"
"That's more like it. Hurry up and buy the tickets. Oh, and I also want to drink milk tea!"
...
Similar scenes have appeared in many cinemas.
There were just too many blockbusters released on this day; everyone was overwhelmed with choices.
Unless you're a particularly devoted fan, like someone who's a huge fan of a particular movie, you won't hesitate to buy tickets for a particular film.
Otherwise, viewers will still compare before making a purchase.
A movie ticket isn't expensive; it doesn't cost much. But buying a movie ticket means spending two hours on it, and time is precious.
Another issue is that if you buy a ticket but feel the movie isn't good, you'll be stuck in a dilemma – whether you leave or stay.
Let's go, it feels like a waste to buy tickets.
But if I keep watching, I'll not only waste the ticket, but also my time, which will only make me more conflicted.
Therefore, it's better to make the right choice from the beginning to avoid losses in the middle.
However, as many insiders have analyzed.
'Ex-Files 2' is very competitive at the box office during this period.
The theme of love is something that urban men and women like, and there is also 'Story 1' as a prelude.
Therefore, many people go straight to 'The Ex-Files 2' after arriving at the cinema.
Then there's 'Shanghai Fortress', a work by renowned director Wu Leilei, featuring young heartthrobs, which is undoubtedly very attractive to young girls.
Just like the couple at the beginning, even though the boy wasn't interested in her, he eventually succumbed to the girl's persistence.
In addition, many exciting clips of the other blockbusters imported from abroad have already circulated online, making audiences eager to see more, and thus they are quite popular.
However, Da Xu Culture's "Kung Fu" and Moluntian Film & Television's "Kung Fu Legend" are more noteworthy.
Among all these films, it seems to have the lowest popularity.
Surprisingly, the two sides were initially neck and neck in terms of popularity.
But upon closer reflection, it seems to make sense.
On the one hand, the names of the two films are quite similar, giving the impression that the content of the two films is probably similar as well.
On the other hand, Zhao Fan may be a new director, but he is a very capable one.
However, he just released a movie called "Crazy Stone" which grossed over 500 million yuan, and its popularity is still going strong.
Therefore, many people think that the next 'Kung Fu Legend' should also be good.
While Director Xu's "Summer Fall" has a higher total box office, it was released last year after all.
In terms of popularity, it can be said that it has completely disappeared.
Fortunately, he has a considerable number of fans, so he can barely keep up.
...
Amidst the commotion, the various screening rooms in the cinema have already begun showing the film.
No matter what movie tickets the audience bought, at this point they have no choice but to keep watching.
The screening room where 'The Fortress of Shanghai' was located was filled with young women, some of whom came in groups, and some even had their boyfriends sitting next to them.
The girls were looking forward to their idol's wonderful performance, but as the film progressed, the atmosphere gradually became a bit awkward.
Because they soon discovered that although their idol was very handsome, the movie didn't seem very good.
While many people came specifically to see their idols, it would be even better if they could see a great movie, but now...
On the other hand, the atmosphere in the theater showing 'The Ex-Files 2' was much more unified.
It has to be said that romance films have always been very successful at the box office.
Moreover, the director was very clever. Because of the success of the previous film, he continued the style of the first film without resorting to any other shady tactics.
So the audience who bought tickets were quite satisfied, even though it used up a lot of tissues.
So the guys who come to see this movie usually don't care much about the plot, because they're busy handing tissues to their girlfriends the whole time.
