Comedies that don't want to talk about tragedy are not good clowns.
Jay Baruchel first appeared as an outsider who disliked "the real chaos in your circle". He couldn't understand the lifestyle of the bad guys in the entertainment industry, refused to be like his peers, and even looked down on his half-legged advance. Seth, a classmate in the entertainment industry. But precisely because of this cold-eyed onlooker who has always yearned to stay away, he became the only person thinking about the operating mechanism of the doomsday, undertaking the task of promoting the development of the plot in the direction of self-salvation.
Seth Logan, who is opposed to him, is actually a candidate who stands at the door of the ultimate club. He aspires to be part of the entertainment circle but is afraid and self-sacrificing. When the result of the game is not good for him, he will still risk the anger of the public to abandon the rules and conventions in order to protect himself.
Jonah Hill, the kindest in the world in Seth's mind, is actually a hypocrite. As a full member of the Ultimate Club, he generously throws an olive branch to Jay and Seth who have not yet been on the road, but if this modest kindness is intolerably insulted, he prays to God to take Jay's life. "Don't murder" is the evil idea that Lord Jehovah rejected in the "Ten Commandments", so only the devil responded to him. In the end, he was also destroyed because of this desire that did not conform to the popular value orientation.
Opposite him is the kind-hearted Craig Robinson, he is a good guy who is likable, and at the same time, because of sins more than kindness, he is ordinary and has no moral threat ability. But it is his characteristic of fully catering to universal values and fully respecting the spirit of contract that has caused him to be "voluntarily" tried again and again. However, religion actually promises the benefit of believers, so he It was also because of self-sacrifice that God took over to be an angel that brings joy to people.
And James Franco, who also made self-sacrifice but failed to become an angel, was abandoned by God halfway because of his arrogant nature. As the property owner of the "refuge", James believes that he is the rule maker. He twice instigated everyone to drive dissidents out of the villa on the basis of the common interests of everyone. As the host, he felt that he was obligated. To protect his followers, he would even use private food to buy the loyalty of his "teammates". But what God hates most is actually this kind of arrogance of "recognizing himself as a king" and ranks it as the first of the seven deadly sins. I think Lucifer was demoted as a fallen angel because he was too arrogant and offended the Lord Jehovah. There is Satan.
Opposite him and even more arrogant, Danny McBride destroyed half of everyone’s food as soon as he appeared. His arrogance offended the owner James, and his selfishness and lack of contract aroused public outrage. However, His cunning teased everyone again, even if he left in his sleeves, he had to add that he was not being expelled but chose to leave voluntarily, what kind of arrogance. But because of his arrogance, he became the only one who abandoned the shelter of the group and went to the sinister end times to pursue freedom alone. His apostasy attracted a group of non-mainstream followers, and even created a decent cannibal group.
God won't want Danny this kind of original sin collection, so he can only live in evil, and if he can't be a good friend of cigarettes, wine and hot girls, only you can't think of a paradise that you can't get. Jay and Seth went, because they finally forgave the other and themselves, Jay chose to change and integrate and Seth chose to sacrifice himself bravely.
The rules are the same as beliefs. It is not just a few words of verbal flattery that can be fooled. You must abandon your will from body to heart and recognize the "goodness" of most people in order to be accepted and redeemed by the ultimate club.
In the end, the self-sacrifice became an angel who brought everyone joy. Whether the god they follow is an audience or an entertainment company depends on whether the movie is in the release or production period.
In short, Jay, welcome to the entertainment industry.
