Chapter 254 253. Breaking the Fourth Wall

  May 1st, it should have been a holiday for fishing.

  But everyone in the movie circle feels very serious.

  Lu Yi’s movie is not just a box office hit.

  The clues conveyed behind this movie are surprising.

  Under the question of how to evaluate "Mouth of the Madman" on the famous role-playing website, I have updated several hot replies.

[Filmmaker Aping]: I retract my previous comments, "Mouth of Madman" is a breakthrough for the field of horror movies, even for domestic films, and its content is not only limited to the works. , It extends beyond the work. This method of combining reality and illusion and blurring the boundaries is very strange. It can be said that the viewing experience of the whole movie reached its peak when the last section of the secret was revealed. To be honest, I’m a little curious now, do we actually live in a novel, are all just characters in the novel, controlled by others?

[My name is Teacher Zhao]: I think there are only a few people who can rationally evaluate this movie. Most of them are still in the chaos where the brain seems to have been disturbed. Think about it carefully, now use one Another movie shocked us and transformed our cognition. Is it very similar to the novelist in the movie? After watching this movie, I really thought about the possibility of whether I was a fictional character or not. Of course, if this is the plot of a novel, then maybe Lu Zing is the absolute protagonist of this plot, and I am just a faceless dragon set to tout him.

[Dark Blue Melancholy: My face hurts a bit. I thought it would take at least two years for Lu Zing’s movie to be seen at the normal production speed. I didn’t expect it to be taken out in half a year. Did it secretly store more than a dozen movies? , One by one, it’s not going to give other directors a way to survive. Someone shoots well and fast. How can other people roll him? It doesn’t make sense! 】

  However, more people are still stuck in the shock of the movie.

In Lu Zin’s previous films, the discussion on the fourth wall was very shallow. In most films, the actors ignored the audience and performed completely immersed in the worldview of the film, and the relevant film themes were not allowed. The audience felt that this was "acted".

But in "Mouth of the Madman", the interaction between the novelist and the protagonists, and the main plot of the movie, obviously broke the fourth wall of horror stories in the movie, connecting reality and illusion together. The audience can think, This movie is the story of the novel "Mouth of the Madman". The novelist is outside the story. It can also be considered that the novelist is also part of the story. This is a film that tells how the novel is completed.

  It is easy to think about whether the audience who are watching the movie are the characters in an event called "Mad Men’s Mouth"? Is the world we live in real?

  Bai Qiquan came back after watching the premiere, and the whole person was dazed.

  He got up very early today. He almost didn't sleep last night. His dreams were all spiders crawling all over the body, the man in the suit twisted his head, and the head of the vicious dog with tentacles exploded.

  Wake up in the morning, Bai Qiquan rubs his eyes.

  He suddenly saw a man in a suit standing in his bedroom.

   Hearing Bai Qiquan's movement, the other party turned his head.

   "Fuck!"

  Bai Qiquan sat up like an electric shock. His head almost hit the wall. A tremor swept through his body. He even felt his hands and feet twitch.

   "What are you doing? It's the same as seeing a ghost."

  The man in the suit asked.

  Bai Qiquan realized that this was his roommate.

  "You, what are you doing in a suit all right?"

  He asked with a trembling voice.

   "Oh, I didn't find an internship before, but I went for an interview today, so I got a suit."

  Roommate laughed.

"Oh"

  Bai Qiquan was relieved.

   immediately fell into that kind of inexplicable sentimental.

  "You said, is it possible that we are just one member of the book, and the whole world is fictitious?"

  He suddenly asked his roommate.

"what?"

  The other party didn’t understand, so he asked.

   "Forget it, you don't understand."

  Bai Qiquan shook his head.

  He now feels like the scientist who first understood the heliocentric theory. Everyone else is still in ignorance, only he has pryed into the truth.

  He lay on the bed, picked up his phone, and searched for knowledge about the end of the universe, the end of time, the destruction of the earth, and so on.

"do you know?"

  Bai Qiquan asked his roommate again.

"what do you know?"

  Roommate doesn’t understand again.

  "The sun will expand into a red giant in five billion years. The earth will be completely swallowed by then, and human civilization will be destroyed!"

  Bai Qiquan said seriously.

   "Oh, five billion years, that's still very early."

  Suddenly my roommate felt that Bai Qiquan had a serious illness.

   "Are you really okay, do you want to see the school doctor?"

   "It's okay, I'm okay."

  Bai Qiquan waved his hand, lay down again, and searched for some thought experiments such as the brain in the tank, the ship of Theseus and other thought experiments, and the whole person became melancholy again.

  This situation continued for the night.

  The guys in the dormitory had a fixed black time and found Bai Qiquan to play a few games. When he knelt for five times, what the universe was destroyed, when the time ended, and what brains in the tank were all left behind by him.

  "Mom, I won't sleep if I don't win today!"

  Bai Qiquan clicked the mouse to open the next one.

   Then he stayed overnight for another day.

  On May 1, the box office of "Mad Men's Mouth" reached 170 million, setting a domestic first-day box office record for a horror movie.

  And, with the continuation of the holiday and the fermentation of word of mouth, its box office is still rising.

On the second day, the box office of "Mad Men’s Mouth" reached 200 million. On the third day, this number became 250 million. It is rare that the box office continued to rise with sufficient pre-announcement. Movie.

  It is worth mentioning that before this, the domestic movie box office was a military-themed movie, with a total box office of more than 5 billion, while the total box office of the leading actors exceeded 8 billion.

Now, according to data calculations, Lu Zan’s "Mad Men’s Mouth" is likely to exceed 3 billion at the box office, reaching 4 billion. When added to "Cry", he can almost become the top five director and director in the domestic box office. actor.

  In this case, the mainstream media also began to chase the hot spot of Lu Zin.

  At the end of Golden Week, after Lu Zan’s "Mouth of the Madman" won a box office of one billion, he received a call.

  The other party is the person in charge of the program group of Shonan TV Station. He invited Lu Yi to participate in an interview program to talk about his creative experience.

  Lu Yi readily accepted.
