Which movie is the most popular on New Year's Day?
Is it "Goldfinger" starring Tony Leung and Andy Lau, or "Sneaking" led by Peng Yuyan and Lin Jiadong, or the dark horse comedy "The Annual Meeting Can't Stop"?
Judging from the box office, these films are weak, and no one expected that the real winner would be-
"Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star".
There are no first-line celebrities in the cast, and there are no gold medal directors and screenwriters in the main creative team, relying only on the popularity of an online drama that was popularized by the Internet meme of "Zhang Wansen, It's snowing", and locked the box office champion seat on the New Year's Day schedule in advance.
In the 2 days of release, the cumulative box office has exceeded 500 million, and this is a potential to compete with other blockbusters during the Spring Festival.
The box office is so fierce, let's look at word of mouth-
"The most spanning movie on New Year's Day", "Two words of disappointment", "Less marketing routines", "It's hard to evaluate, it's really hard to evaluate", "A hearty and vicious fraud"
The box office is stable, the word of mouth has been pulled, why did "Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star" just be released, and the word of mouth overturned?
The story has been changed by magic and has nothing to do with the drama version
I believe that most of the audience who come to watch the movie are fans of the drama version of "Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star", however, the story in the movie can be said to be irrelevant to the drama version.
In the drama version of the story, the "key" for Lin Beixing (played by Zhang Jianing) to end the crossing is the "I like you" that she and Zhang Wansen (played by Qu Chuxiao) said to both parties.
However, in the film version of the story, the "traverser" became Zhang Wansen, and he opened the copy of "Save Lin Beixing", and he didn't see it for an hour, and suddenly reversed.
It turns out that the male and female protagonists are both "traversers", not to the past, but to a similar parallel time and space, Zhang Wansen's one-way crush has also become a two-way crush between the male and female protagonists, and the "key" to the end has become the name of "Zhang Wansen" to each other.
Lin Beixing hid all his experiences, and finally wrote a letter to tell the world about it, and the two understood everything they had given each other.
You just say that it is outrageous, the popularity of the drama version depends on Zhang Wansen's "crush on the ceiling", good guy, it has been changed beyond recognition.
What's even more ridiculous is that the characters in the play have also begun to change greatly.
The male protagonist is such a shy person, and after the good brother asked, "Are you still not the Zhang Wansen I know", he told all his identity experience and crush on Lin Beixing.
Dare to love you before you were shy and couldn't even say a complete sentence is pretending, and this will become so good at talking.
The heroine was strict this time, she didn't tell anyone about her experience, and Zhang Wansen had an ambiguous summer vacation, watching each other pay for herself, and said at the end of the summer vacation: You also have to live your own summer.
You didn't wait for winter to say this to him, and your leg was lame and remembered to buy crutches.
Supporting role Mai Zi (played by Jiang Yunlin), although he is a gangster in the drama version, he is kind-hearted, this time he is not obsessed with the experiment of competing with the male protagonist for elephant toothpaste, and begins to chase love bravely.
The front foot said "wise people don't fall in love", and the back foot became "for love to return to school and get admitted to the master's and doctorate", except for Zhang Wansen, who started the countdown to the college entrance examination.
There is also Gao Ge (played by Fu Jing), who can be regarded as the love security guard of the male and female protagonists in the drama version, and completely becomes a passer-by in the film, with or without her.
It has nothing to do with the original story.,Just a few people who don't know what to do.,Doing inexplicable things.。
The most unexpected thing is that the romance film exploded into a science fiction film.
Because of a joke when the heroine was a child, Zhang Wansen's dream of being a borderless veterinarian became a moon landing, not to mention, he really realized it.
When the Ferris wheel he and Lin Beixing were riding slowly rose, the golden light flashed, the Ferris wheel turned into a spaceship, and the two of them put on spacesuits and kept jumping on the moon.
I think Zhang Wansen has broken into another parallel time and space, and in that time and space, his name is Liu Qi.
Why are you shooting like this? Eyeballs, Qu Chuxiao put on a spacesuit, this is not a tribute to "The Wandering Earth".
Boredom and procrastination, the snow field becomes a disaster scene
In addition to being outrageous, the plot also has a big flaw, that is: slow.
In the first half of the film, the director almost put the camera on Qu Chuxiao's face, either showing his shy appearance, or magnifying his characteristics of being stumbling and not explaining anything.
All kinds of close-ups, flashbacks, and slow motion are used, which have little to do with the main story line, and the audience is drowsy to watch.
can be regarded as waiting for the reversal, the director played back Zhang Wansen's various shots, for fear that the audience would not know the plot of the first half of the paragraph when he fell asleep just now.
The male protagonist is reversed, the female protagonist is starting to reverse, and there are various picture rotations, and you can not shoot if you don't have anything to shoot.
I suspect that the director fell asleep while cutting the film, interspersed the same scenes with different scenes, and the story that could be told in an hour was stretched into two points.
Of course, the most important thing for the audience to break the defense is the "snow field".
How many viewers went to the sentence "Zhang Wansen, it's snowing", but in the feature film, the male and female protagonists said this sentence just by chance in another parallel time and space.
It doesn't have any actual meaning, it's more like a sentence on the water time, which has become the biggest selling point of the film.
And the so-called "snow field" has also become the biggest joke in 2023.
The tragic situation is as follows:
Under this snow, a bunch of lucky viewers were buried at random, no wonder everyone shouted -
"Zhang Wansen, it's snowing!" "Zhang Wansen, the avalanche is over" Zhang Wansen, come out to clear the snow"
What's more, Lin Beixing and Zhang Wansen were bouncing so happily on the moon, and the audience was dressed up brightly and covered in heavy snow.
The real chilling is not yelling, the movie is not good-looking, and if it comes out like this, the audience's anger in their hearts is even stronger, and the one-star bad reviews are gone.
Couples rushed to go on a date, but it turned out to be a wilderness to survive, and those who refunded the tickets were more witty, and when it snowed in the theater, it was really funny.
Watching netizens share the tragic situation of "snowing" is much more interesting than watching a movie.
Epilogue:
"Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star" really responds to that sentence, the higher the expectation, the greater the disappointment, using the gimmick of "snow field" to attract a large wave of audiences, and the audience's discussion of "snow" exceeds the film itself, this is the real purpose of the creators.
The story of the film version can be said to have nothing to do with the drama version at all, and the reunion of the original team is purely for selling feelings, cutting the leeks of drama fans, breaking the audience's filter on Lin Beixing and Zhang Wansen.
"Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star" overturned when it was released, and the one-star bad reviews were blown up, please directors, don't make this kind of domestic bad movie anymore.
TV drama directors should stay in the TV drama circle to shoot works, don't squeeze the film and television circle and cause a lot of scolding.
Have you watched Twinkle Twinkle Twinkle Star?
