Chapter 436: Visitors from the Galaxy (1)

After Su Yun's several movies with stunning special effects came out, coupled with Sigourney Weaver's reputation as the Alien Queen, most of the audience went into the cinema with various thoughts in mind to watch the new movie "Galaxy Visitor", and the idea was that they wanted to see another visual feast.

What no one expected was that when the movie opened, what they all saw was a space shuttle special effect that was comparable to the science fiction TV dramas of the 1960s and 1970s.

"Oh——" Such 50-cent special effects deeply hurt the audience who were hoping to watch another visual feast, making them look as if their eyes were irritated.

What happened to Mary Sue?!

Although the production time of "Galaxy Visitor" is relatively tight, aren't works involving Mary Sue famous in the industry for being fast and good? !

Why?! Why were they able to watch such a cheap special effects movie in the 1980s?!

After several films in a row, the audiences had already been spoiled by Su Yun and had raised their expectations. At this time, they felt as sad as if they had seen a genius fall into depravity.

You are going to use this movie as a bet against Warner!

If the entire movie was of this production level, there would be no need for professional film critics and haters to criticize it. These audiences who were shocked by the film would spontaneously unite and criticize it!

Seeing that the film had only been in theaters for one minute and had already accumulated countless complaints from the audience, Adam, who was determined to contribute to the box office regardless of the quality of the film, suddenly became anxious.

If the unspoken rule in cinemas that "do not disturb others watching the movie" was not so deeply rooted in people's minds, Adam would almost stand up and endorse "Galaxy Visitor": except for the poor special effects, the plot is still very interesting!

At the beginning, the protagonist's spaceship is in danger, and when the entire team is unable to solve the dilemma, the commander decides to open an unknown "Omega 13" to...

Moreover, Sigourney's role is a departure from her previous image of a female super warrior. Even though it is just a fleeting scene, she still makes people marvel at her smooth and shiny golden curly hair, her curvy figure in the spaceship uniform, and her uniquely cool and sexy beauty.

Isn't it enough for many people to have such a pretty vase as the heroine? You know, in this world, many people watch movies with the idea of ​​"you give me pretty, I give you money"...

When Adam was thinking this, the close-up of the commander's serious expression on the big screen suddenly changed its style and cut directly to the gray screen with "To be continued".

Afterwards, the screen on the stage changed from a review of classic "Galaxy Quest" episodes to a poster marking the 20th anniversary of "Galaxy Quest", and then slowly cut to the host wearing the crew uniform of the spaceship in the show.

This host was once one of the extras in the classic long-running science fiction TV series "Galaxy Quest". Judging from his excitement on the stage, it can be seen that he really likes this TV series and is proud to have participated in it.

The extra host became more and more excited as he spoke. When he said that everyone was welcome to the 20th anniversary party of "Galaxy Quest", the strange-looking COSERS in the audience immediately burst into warm applause.

At the same time, in the dressing room backstage, the main actors of the TV series were in a rather irritable mood when they heard the faint applause coming from outside.

Yes, they created a very popular exploration team, and the characters played by each person became classic images in the minds of fans during the TV series' popularity. Even though it has been off the air for so many years, it still exists as a classic IP, attracting the love of old fans and the entry of new fans...

But for an actor, an overly classic role image will largely fix and limit his future acting path - this is an extremely terrible situation, proving that even if they have the ability to create more classic role images, it is difficult to gain the trust of others.

Being all the rage and remaining popular for many years is not only a great achievement, but also a helpless shackle.

This is because once an actor is tied to a role, it seems that he is “positioned” from that point on. If he does not have the strength and luck to break free from the shackles, he will always be locked in this position.

Some actors who have created classic roles will choose to retire directly after being positioned - because they know that they do not have the strength and luck to break free from the shackles, nor the courage to break through the positioning.

"So why do we still have to come to such a comic convention?" Alexander, who plays the second male lead, the alien doctor, has to wear an octopus-like headgear every time he performs on stage according to the TV series's styling. He is the one with the highest styling requirements and the most difficult time among all the actors. Seeing that the actor who played the first male lead, the commander, was actually an hour and a half late, he was exhausted from touching up his makeup and finally started to go crazy.

"He left us and went to another place!" Tommy, the young actor who played the talented driver back then, has grown into a hot-tempered young man. He is indignant about the different experiences of these people over the years.

Compared to them who can only rely on being guests at comic conventions and running some low-level venues with low pay, actor Jason, as the leading male commander, has been smooth sailing in recent years and has become a super star using this TV series as a springboard.

Same person but different fate. They had once starred in the same classic drama together in the same crew, but in the end only Jason emerged victorious, which inevitably made others feel unbalanced.

With no money to hire an assistant, Alexander, with an octopus head, put on some makeup himself, sighing that he was once a real actor, played Richard III five times, and was one of the best in the drama world. But now he has fallen to such a ridiculous octopus head, waiting backstage for someone to take him on stage...

"I will never go on stage again, and I will never recite those stupid and ridiculous lines again!" Alexander became angrier and angrier the more he thought about it. He immediately threw away the powder puff in his hand, stood up angrily and was about to leave.

"At least you played an important role." Gwen, who was a vase heroine in the TV series, stopped him. "Fans like you too, but what about me? The weekly magazine interviewed me and talked about my breasts! My figure! And how well I fit in this uniform!"

"No one cares what I'm acting in!"

This line, which was almost the inner voice of the heroine in this kind of ensemble drama, made many people in the theater laugh.

But after laughing, people seem to feel a little inexplicably sad.

In particular, Jane Fonda came to the premiere in person to show her support for Su Yun: when she was young, her scumbag ex-husband tailored a sci-fi comedy "Barbarella" for her, which established her early personal image as a beautiful beauty.

When Su Yun first contacted her and wanted to get some inspiration for the Space Beauty look, in order to repay Su Yun for helping her with the post-production of the movie "On Golden Pond", which won several Oscars, and considering their long-term friendship, she had the courage to face her past and did not have much aversion, and generously gave Su Yun help.

But I didn't expect that Su Yun would invite her to attend the premiere of "Galaxy Visitor" later, and it seems that she even specially created the role of "Gwen" to pay tribute to actresses like her who obviously have detailed character settings, but in the end people can only remember them for their beauty and figure.

There are very few actresses who can break away from their previous sexy image like her, and in this era, there are always newcomers who are willing to sacrifice everything to get promoted. In addition, in the eyes of the general public, female actors in group dramas are usually used as a decoration among a group of male characters, and are responsible for the bloody emotional scenes.

Then, no one will ever remember their roles, nor will anyone want to explore how hard they have worked for these roles.

Because no matter how well you act, people will only remember your appearance and figure.

Besides that, maybe I just remember the bloody love scenes with the male lead, the second male lead, etc.

As expected, after hearing Gwen's words, the chief engineer actress who was sitting calmly beside her was also a little confused. She recalled her role setting with a slightly confused look: "You play...wait, let me think..."

The actor who played the role of the chief engineer was Zhou Yuanfa, who was specially summoned by Su Yun. With Zhuang Long's fame and Zhang Querong's support in front of him, these Hong Kong stars who aspire to make a breakthrough in Hollywood were more enthusiastic than each other when faced with Su Yun's call.

Even Zhou Yuanfa, who had washed away the title of box office poison with "A Better Tomorrow" last year, was no exception. After finishing "An Autumn Fairy Tale" out of loyalty, he quickly turned down some film contracts he didn't like and joined the cast of "Galaxy Visitor" early.

Together with Will Smith, who plays the young driver, this team of yellow, white and black people, who is also the alien first officer, fully meets the condition of equality for all in the future world plot setting.

"I repeat what the crew and the computer say, Fred." Gwen explained her role as the repeater in a bad mood.

Before he finished speaking, the commander, actor Jason, who was an hour and a half late, finally arrived late.

Faced with his playful explanation of being late because he had gone to make a guest appearance at another venue, Alexander was furious and grabbed him by the collar on the spot.

But they couldn't start a fight - because the fans who were waiting outside impatiently had already started shouting in unison.

If they don't show up, the anger of so many people outside will definitely not be something they can bear.

The chief engineer, the pilot and the repeater hurried out following the names that were called out outside. Alexander straightened the octopus' head that had shifted slightly due to the intense movement, and then cursed bitterly, "Damn it, I will never say those stupid lines again." Then, with the qualities of an actor, he put on a serious and solemn expression, walked calmly onto the stage, and bowed to the fans in the audience to express his gratitude for their support.

However, after muttering for so long that he didn’t want to recite his “stupid and ridiculous” classic line again, he didn’t notice that at the moment he stood up and bowed in silence, a classic clip of him reciting that classic line in a TV drama appeared on the screen behind him.

"Gaga, bless me, I will avenge you!"
