blockbuster era

The recent days have been a bit confusing, and it seems that I haven't recovered from the state of vacation. Typhoon days have always been treacherous, but last night I saw a cloud-like style version of the moon, hey, let's not mention it.

I’ve been so poor lately that I can almost write a review of a classic movie, but forgive me for not being so thorough, so I have to continue to type in such innocuous words.



Watch Jumanji the day before yesterday or in the middle of the night. The last time I watched it, it looked like I was still in elementary school, and was dumbfounded by the special effects in it.

Blockbuster Oh, that was the first time I knew what a "blockbuster" was from "True Lies". It was beautiful, exciting, and the scene was huge, which seriously subverted my impression of the movie. "Ah, "Flowering Lotus", etc., or "Tunnel Warfare", "Mine Warfare", or the little warmth of "Mom Loves Me Again". The blockbuster movie is exciting, it's hard to stop watching it, it's exciting, it's intense, and I understood it all at that time. It was only after many years that I thought of understanding the operation mode of commercial films, and then I thought of the so-called market driving force. This is another story, not a statement. In short, I was shocked for a while, a blockbuster is a "big" film, and it's different if it's different.

After "True Lies", a certain N officially embarked on the road of no return for commercial films, "Brave to the Dead Island", "Future Water World", "Star Wars", little by little. As a rule, the school will not organize us to watch blockbuster movies - they are all about "promoting patriotism". Every time I go to bed, when the film ends, I wake up accurately and take the lead in applauding, and then come back like the old three. In hindsight, people probably started to split at that time - so every time I watched a "blockbuster" at home, it felt like a festival.

At that time, my father's unit was very sentimental, and every blockbuster would issue movie tickets. The most classic time I remember watching "Long Dreams of the Covered Bridge", my parents and my mother carefully held a family meeting specifically to see if I could watch romantic movies blatantly at my age. Of course, it turned out to be a good one. I always did well in elementary school, so my parents took me there, and I fell asleep while watching this movie, so many years later, I only I remember that in the dark movie theater, Meryl repeatedly wrote the gray moth on the paper and the totem-like pendant in Clint's car, well, revisit this film another day and mend the broken memory—— That time, it was two consecutive shows. After the end of "The Last Dream of Covered Bridge", "The Strange Man Yizhimei" was released. At that time, I didn't know Huang Qiusheng, but this film was funny. Hong Xin is beautiful. But unfortunately, when my parents dragged me out of the movie theater on the grounds that it was too late, it wasn't until the end. Many years later, I saw it on TV when I went on a trip, but I still missed it. So some time ago, when a Korean TV drama filmed this theme, I was looking forward to it, but it turned out to be unfinished - I hate unfinished endings!



Later, there are many funny things, pick up the classics.

When I was in junior high school, "Titanic" came out. The disc I watched at my brother's house was still my brother's, 囧. When it was released, my brother told me very proudly that their school organized to go to the cinema to watch this movie. I was envious. At that time, I was thinking that the treatment of high school students and junior high school students is different. The school organized to watch romantic movies. . It's a pity that I have been waiting for me to graduate from high school, and there is no film that can hit the same as "Titanic". I can only graduate with regret, which is really sad. Back at that time, my emotional line developed relatively slowly. It seems that I started to be moved by love when I went to college to watch "This Killer Is Not Too Cold", so when I watched "Titan", it was only for the priest and the old couple when the ship was wrecked. The husband and wife and the musicians who were touched - calm, calm, noble, and all at once understood, this is how Taishan collapsed in front of him without changing his face, great. When I got home and told my parents how good this movie was, my parents passed by without a word. After a few days, the original sound of "Titan" began to be played on the streets. Our music teacher must be a young Wenqing who loves to follow the trend. She told me that she had watched the film 10 times and praised the music. , I agree with this, but when she boasted that she knew the score after listening to the music, I really didn't give her face. I said that I would sing it after listening to it once, and I sang it to her immediately and went away, leaving it behind. I really can't help her looking at her bruised face. When I got home, I went back to my parents to learn about it, and told them that there was a soundtrack in the music class, how everyone was moved, and so on. He said at the end, "Look, it's good for you to learn an instrument. Now that I know it's not a waste of time, I can't do it." Two days later, my dad came back with a CD in his pocket and played it proudly. I wonder how he knew he wanted to buy the soundtrack without watching the movie, only to find out about the huge conspiracy between my parents - these two left me alone at home on a sunny weekend to write pitifully The homeworker went to the cinema to watch movies happily. Hey, isn't it just a love movie, so what? I immediately and firmly expressed my disdain and disdain, and went back to the house to continue doing my homework—there is too much homework, and it’s hard to get along well in the key class.



Later, when I was in college, I set up a movie club with my classmates. Back then, it was one of the famous big clubs on the Fengxian campus. Every time a movie was shown in the lecture hall, there must be more than 100 people in attendance, which gave me a sense of accomplishment. At that time, our president was a very complicated person with a super broad coverage, which I still admire to this day. That is when I began to gradually get rid of the clutches of commercial films, and gradually moved towards the point of no return for literary films. My brother had a girlfriend when he was in college, and he always put on an unpredictable look, bragging to me about how college life was when I was not in college. The most classic one was when I came home for a party during the university vacation, and we rented a disc to watch it at night. He asked me what movie to watch, and I said it would be "Evil in the East". What are you watching "Evil in the East and Poison in the West", can you understand it? It's still "East and West". In the end, I watched "Golden Eye", and I watched Brosnan's old man showing off his coquettish coquettish coquettishness. Hey~ Later, I watched "Dong Xie Xi Po" by myself. I really think this film is quite easy to understand. Wong Kar Wai's films are very easy to understand. I understand.

However, there was a funny incident in the film club. We played "Interview with the Vampire at Night", and there was a stage play in the middle, and the little girl below screamed, ah, how can we put this kind of film on~ Later, "Days on the Clouds" I played I didn’t watch it, I had to catch up with my homework, so I went to the library to copy the book at the beginning of the film, but when it was almost finished, I went back and looked at it, hey, why is there no one there. The president said calmly, oh, the girls couldn't stand it at the beginning of the film, they escaped almost halfway, and in the middle, there were only a few left. I fainted for a while. I haven't watched this movie yet. Is it that violent...



Hey, I didn't want to write so much, but when the chatter box is opened, it can't be closed. Movies have always been a magical thing, and no one knows what will happen next. I think I will continue to love and watch.



Let me shout again, if there is a Brave game, some people plan to play together, I watched it again a few days ago, the special effects are still quite good~
