Chapter 78： Past the deadline (1/2)
The poster wall of the movie theater is covered with movie posters that are being screened. Since it is now the Halloween season, most of the posters are in a dark style. You can see it is a creepy horror movie at a glance.
”Which movie should I watch?” Wang Yang looked at Jessica in a cowboy outfit next to him, and then looked at the poster on the poster wall. Although the crew has a lot of affairs, Wang Yang is not too busy to watch a movie in the evening. They have n’t met and dated for a long time. He would rather sleep late to make up the time instead of neglecting one. The girlfriend who hasn't seen for half a month, came to visit class, and he also wants to take a break.
So he retained the traditional dating model of Jessica who would return to Los Angeles immediately, dinner and watching movies, and then came to this cinema. But the blockbuster movies are waiting for the Christmas season next month. Several of the latest movies are horror movies, as well as some old movies, ”American Beauty”? Very deep and cruel, but obviously not suitable for watching when dating. They all like to watch relaxed comedy romances when dating, but no, it is really not a suitable time for watching movies.
Wang Yang ’s eyes stopped on a poster in the middle of an empty office. The poster read, “The DV horror movie is back, do you dare to watch the supernatural phenomenon in the office this time?” He turned to look at Jessica, laughing Tao: ”Why not watch” Ghost Story 2 ”?”
”Ghost Record 2” was officially released the week before, and Lions Gate placed high hopes on this sequel, including copyright fees, and the production cost was as high as 10 million. Compared with ”Ghost Record 1”, the cost It has soared a thousand times, and there are more than 2,500 painting academies in the first week. For this movie, Wang Yang has no special feeling, because he did not participate in any work during the whole production process. However, he naturally hoped that the box office could sell a seat. Once he thanked Lions Gate, he did not want them to screw up; second, he had a 20% box office dividend.
However, its first week's box office was only more than 9 million. Although it ranked second in the weekly list, it seems that there will be no problem in recovering costs, but the possibility of creating a miracle is very low. After the frenzy of ”High School Musical”, young people almost have to forget ”Ghost Record”. When it comes to this movie, it is remembered as the name ”Wang Yang”. Their attention is focused on this, but now The director is not Wang Yang? Even if the Lions Gate Company works very hard to promote, there are still not many young people interested.
Especially when the film critics are not singing well, ”The Los Angeles Times” commented: ”After watching” Ghost Recording 2 ”, you will find that it is so boring, the whole movie is filmed by the film filming method, not The DV technique also lost the authenticity of the pseudo-documentary. What is the DV technique? Look at ”Ghost Record” to know. ”
Looking at the weird poster, Jessica nodded and said: ”It's good to be scared.” Wang Yang shrugged and said, ”Just to talk, you know I don't like horror movies; and I hate the Lions Gate Company. They did n’t let me direct or watch. ”Jessica smiled at him with a toothy smile and said,“ What do you want to see? ”Wang Yang stepped back and smiled with his hands round his chest. You come up with an idea. ”
Jessica glanced at the poster wall with interest, and suddenly saw a poster with Brad Pitt. She remembered that Wang Yang said he liked Brad very much, so she pointed to the poster and asked, ”This How is the club? ”Fight Club”. Wang Yang glanced at it and couldn't help but praise: ”Wow, Brad Pitt, David Finch, I like it, but I heard that this movie is very violent, do you like to watch it? ”Jessica pouted her lips with a greasy expression and said:” I like violence ”Wang Yang nodded with a smile:” That's good ”
The ticket office itself was empty and no one was there. Wang Yang did not have to line up and went directly to the ticket window to buy tickets: ”Hello, give us two tickets to Fight Club.”
The ”OK” young ticket seller glanced at the two while holding the ticket, and suddenly looked suspicious, saying: ”You look familiar, like ...” A black-haired Asian boy and a brown-haired mixed-race beauty Such a combination is rare, he thought a little, and he was suddenly surprised: ”Oh, are you Yang and Jessica?”
Wang Yang and Jessica looked at each other, and both smiled slightly. Wang Yang took the ticket and paid, and said curiously to the conductor: ”Yang and Jessica? Are we really like that? Many people have said so.” He Greeting Jessica, she walked over to the projection room: ”Mary, let's go” Jessica followed behind, sweetly smiling: ”Okay, Danny”, and so on, Wang Yang doubted and said: ” Why did you call me Danny? Wang Wang ”Jessica couldn't help laughing, said:” I don't know your other name. ”Wang Yang smiled:” I don't, do you give me one? ”
Mary? Danny? The ticket seller frowned, and the probe looked at their backs as they walked away, and suddenly shouted: ”You are” Seeing that the two disappeared at the corner, he withdrew his gaze and said to himself, ”It must be that Yang is here recently. Here I shoot ”When Happiness Comes to Knock”, I don't know how it happened ... ”
Looking at the big screen directly in front of him, Wang Yang reached out and grabbed a handful of popcorn from Jessica's arms, and stuffed it into his mouth to nibble while asking softly, ”Jessica, does Joshua have any Have you been asked? ”Probably knowing that Jessica is about to return to Los Angeles. Joshua called Wang Yang two days ago, hoping to get a venue for the party. The last party could not be held, and he lost face. , He wanted to pull back a game.
