This director only makes bad movies

"impossible."

"There is definitely an error in the data."

This was the first reaction of most insiders when they learned that the box office of "Area 51" was US$135 million on its first day.

What is the concept of 135 million US dollars?

The highest-grossing movie in the United States in a single day was only US$130 million, US$135 million, which means that this movie set a single-day box office record in the United States.

Setting a record is an honor. No matter how many movies are released in the United States in the future, as long as this record is with you, people will not be able to forget this "Area 51". As long as the single-day box office is mentioned, people must mention "Area 51". Area 51" movie.

Even if this record is surpassed, when taking stock of Hollywood movies in the future, people will have to mention "Area 51" because this movie once set a box office record.

It would be fine if another movie had set a single-day box office record, but why was it the movie "Area 51"?

I can’t figure it out. People in the circle can’t figure it out at all.

They don't even understand why?

The promotion of this movie is pure fraud. People who have watched it say that the content of the movie is very empty and there is nothing worth mentioning.

Such a movie actually set a single-day box office record.

That's a single-day box office record.

how so! ! !

"There is definitely a problem with the data!"

Some people begin to doubt life, but things like the single-day box office are counted by many people and there are many data sources. It is possible that one or two people are wrong, but it is absolutely impossible for so many people to be wrong at the same time.

So this data is real.

Since the data is real, the question becomes, why was the movie "Area 51" able to set a record?

"It's so strange. I've seen the movie Area 51. Whether it's pictures, plot, soundtrack or anything else, in short, this movie is not a good movie from all angles. I don't want to say this. The movie is a bad movie because it set a single-day box office record. To say this movie is a bad movie is to insult other movies, but this movie is really bad."

"Who says it isn't? After knowing that "Area 51" set a single-day box office record, I bought a ticket and watched the movie again, but I still didn't see even a single highlight. If I had to find a bright spot, it would be that one. The filming of Alien was quite scary and scared me, but it didn’t set a box office record.”

"Yeah, how could such a trashy movie set a box office record? How could the film industry be like this?"

Insiders were puzzled.

Someone asked: "By the way, how many tens of millions does Western Story have in a single day?"

"I just checked, the single-day box office is 11 million."

Insider: "."

This box office result made a group of people's eyes pop out.

This is Spielberg's work, and it is "Western Story" that everyone considers to be an absolute classic.

As a result, the single-day box office was only over 10 million?

What the hell is this.

"How could this happen? How could "Western Story" only have such a small box office."

"I can't understand it at all, I really can't understand it. Just because of the name Spielberg, even if it's a bad movie, it can't have such a small box office."

"Yeah, I don't think it's possible, and "West Side Story" is such a classic."

"When this happens, there is often only one possibility."

"You mean"

"Suppression at the same time, and absolute suppression"

The so-called absolute suppression in the same period means that a phenomenal movie appears in the same period, and then 90% of the audience chooses to watch this movie and ignore other movies.

This situation is very dangerous for a released movie. In the face of a phenomenal movie, other movies, even if they are of good quality, will have a low box office because the box office of the market will be absorbed by the phenomenal movie.

But here's the thing.

At first, everyone thought that the movie that was absolutely suppressed during the same period was "Area 51," but they didn't expect that the movie that was absolutely suppressed would become the universally recognized classic "Western Story."

Why does this happen?

Everyone was puzzled.

Soon, the ratings of the two movies came out.

"West Side Story" has a Rotten Tomatoes rating of an astonishing 95%, making it the highest-rated movie on the rating website.

Although this score is a bit high, it is not beyond everyone's expectations.

Because now is the movie release period, it is normal for the ratings to be high. After a while, more people watch the movie, and the ratings will naturally return to their original position.

"West Side Story" is such a classic, so it's natural that it gets high ratings.

The Rotten Tomatoes freshness rating of "Area 51" is only 32%. This score really shows that the quality of this movie is very average.

But here's the weird thing. "Area 51", a movie with a very low rating, just crushed the highly rated "West Side Story", and absolutely crushed it. The box office and ratings showed an absolute contrast, which is extremely contradictory. .

The comment sections of the two movies also have completely different styles.

Comment section for "Area 51".

"Shet, what on earth is this movie about?"

"The whole thing is incomprehensible and I'm shocked at times. This is the most rubbish movie I've ever seen."

"Watching other bad movies, I can sleep comfortably in the theater and replenish my energy, but the weird soundtrack of this movie and the surprising music tortured my nerves."

"This director is a pure idiot, and all he has in his mind is vomit."

“Any travel blogger’s video on YouTube is 10,000 times better than this movie.”

Comments section for "Western Story".

"It's so classic."

"After watching the movie, I was moved to tears. Spielberg's movie is so wonderful."

"At the end of the movie, when the hero and heroine kissed each other goodbye, I cried because I thought of my ex-boyfriend."

"Suddenly I want to go back to that era, that pioneering era. That was the most beautiful era, not now."

"Highly recommended, anyone who doesn't watch this movie will regret it."

Not only are ordinary audiences generally positive about "West Side Story", but generally negative about "Area 51", film critics also have similar views.

"Whether it is in terms of graphics, plot, actors, coordination, colors, etc., "West Side Story" has completely surpassed Area 51."

"The Western Story adopts traditional narrative techniques and tells the story of a man and a woman from acquaintance to knowing each other and finally being separated due to no choice during the Western Development Period of the United States. If I were to evaluate it, this is the most exciting Western I have ever seen. This movie definitely ranks in the top five of all the movies I’ve ever seen.”

"As we all know, not all movies can be regarded as classics. Even many recognized and wonderful movies are not qualified to be regarded as classic movies in the end, because classic movies will not fade due to the changes of the times. Every time you watch it again, you will have a new feeling. A different perception.

It is precisely because the standards of classic movies are too high that they are rare and rare. But I can tell you without hesitation today that Hollywood has another truly classic movie, and that is Spielberg's latest masterpiece "Western Story" ", I strongly recommend everyone to watch this movie, because if you miss this movie, you will definitely regret it. "

"If I were asked to rate the worst movie ever made, I would definitely say the name "Area 51" because I have never seen a movie that was so empty, all handheld camera footage, blurry and dim. , I can’t even recall what I watched during the two hours in the screening room.”

Film critics generally praised Spielberg's "Western Story" and criticized Xu Nan's "Area 51".

However, it is not the same.

The box office trend is completely opposite to the reputation of the two movies.

This result left people in the industry puzzled.

In a chat group where insiders gather.

"Why, why is the performance of Spielberg's "Western Story" so poor, while the performance of "Area 51" directed by Hua Xia is so good? What is the problem?"

"I don't understand it either. It feels like it's completely beyond common sense."

"I've watched both movies, but I still can't figure out why "West Side Story" was crushed by "Area 51". In theory, that's not the case."

The group was despondent.

This group is basically made up of insiders and professionals who will basically make a judgment on the box office of a movie after watching it.

Although this judgment may not be accurate, there is a high probability that there will be no problem, and mistakes are only a few cases.

But they really didn't understand the movie "Area 51". They didn't understand why the movie had such a high box office. Not only did it break the single-day box office record, but it also replaced Spielberg's "Western Story". 》Absolutely suppressed.

I can't understand it at all.

"I think it may have something to do with aliens."

Suddenly someone in the group spoke to explain.

"This movie is indeed terrible, but if you don't think of this as a movie, but as a rare video of aliens, can you understand it?"

"What's the meaning?"

"I mean, the audience is not seeing a movie, they are seeing aliens, and they don't think it's a movie, they think it's rare footage of aliens."

"Compared to movies, rare videos of aliens are of course more important. Many people don't watch movies, but they will not miss rare videos of aliens."

"But the alien in question is fake. This is just a movie."

"I know this is a movie, and I also know that the aliens in it are fake, but the audience doesn't know, they take this movie as real."

"so?"

"The reason why this movie did so well is because this audience was deceived."

"In other words, it was the stupidity of the audience that led to the brilliant performance of this movie?"

"It seems like that."
