In this era of film saturation, a movie called "Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star" is like a bright meteor piercing the night sky, attracting the attention of a wide audience. This film, created by the original cast of the web drama of the same name, starring Qu Chuxiao and Zhang Jianing, aims to tell a moving story full of time retrospection and love dislocation. However, with the pre-sale ticket price as high as 300 yuan, audiences have called it "gold", and the film's high refund rate of 18% has sparked widespread speculation. This article takes a deep dive into the highly anticipated film and reveals the mysteries behind it.
The stars are shining, and the pre-sale counterattack
The pre-sale box office of the film has exceeded 100 million in the first 23 days of release, setting a new record for Chinese films. This achievement is reminiscent of the old saying: "The stars are destined to be the center of attention." The audience is eagerly looking forward to the superb performances of Qu Chuxiao and Zhang Jianing, and at the same time, the successful experience of the web series of the same name has added a lot to the film. These have laid a lot of foreshadowing for the success of the film, and people can't help but look forward to the brilliant performance of this meteor.
High ticket prices, the audience has "gold"
However, a movie ticket is as high as 300 yuan, which makes the audience hesitate. Is this fare a "gold sale" or a "robbery"? The audience expressed their opinions on this, setting off a discussion on the ethics of fares. Perhaps for the sake of quality, or for the sake of maintaining the ecology of the industry, the film has various explanations for the high ticket prices. But the doubts in the hearts of the audience are like meteors piercing the night sky, which is difficult to ignore.
What is the truth about the surge of refunds?
However, unexpectedly, the refund rate was as high as 18%. This figure far exceeds other films released during the same period, raising doubts among viewers about the quality of the film. Some netizens analyzed that the high refund rate was caused by the operation errors of the theater and the filmmaker. Whether it was the audience's disappointment with the plot or other reasons, the mystery behind the refund is doubtful.
The shadow behind the advance ticket office
Although the news of the pre-sale box office exceeding 100 million has made the film a rainbow, there are also some points that question it. Some people believe that there may be a suspicion of water injection at the pre-sale box office, and whether the film party uses fictional techniques to attract attention? This question is like a meteor in the night sky, instantly piercing the beautiful picture behind the success of the film.
Decryption "Twinkle Twinkle Star."
Is it that the audience's expectations are too high, or is the quality of the film unsatisfactory? The key to deciphering "Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star" may lie in the core story of the film. Lin Beixing went back to the past, met and fell in love with his former alumnus Zhang Wansen, and tried to prevent his accidental death, which seems to be full of suspense and creativity, but it is also easy for the audience to resonate with the plot.
The mystery of the refund rate, the mistake of the theater and the filmmaker?
Behind the high refund rate, is it the audience's questioning of the quality of the film, or is it some other deeper problem? Some people accuse the theater and the filmmaker of operating mistakes and failing to properly deal with the high ticket prices and audience expectations, which led to this wave of refunds. What is it that makes the audience choose to quit before the curtain opens? It's a mystery that needs to be dug deeper.
Eye-catching box office, the real answer to the audience's needs
Whether it is the brilliance of the advance box office, or the troubles of high ticket prices and refund rates, it reflects the audience's expectations for the film market. Audiences crave a quality film, but they also expect a reasonable ticket price and a comfortable viewing experience. Whether the film company and the theater can strike a balance between the box office and the audience's demand may be an important issue for the future development of the film industry.
Looking at the starry sky, who is the real protagonist?
Are the audience the real protagonists in this highly anticipated film? Do high ticket prices and refund rates mean that audiences have lost their place in this cinematic feast? As a cultural form, can cinema still satisfy the audience's desire for emotion?
Perhaps, "Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star" is a shooting star that illuminates the audience's unique expectations for the quality of the film and the ticket price. However, the high ticket prices and the sudden wave of refunds have also sounded the alarm bells for the film industry. The audience is the most shining existence in this starry sky, and the movie should listen to their voices more, break the glory of the starlight, and restore the real viewing experience. In this starry era, let's look forward to the advent of more movies, so that every audience can find their own brilliant place in this sea of stars. What do you think is the relationship between the audience and the film?
