In addition to JK Rowling and the former president of the American Film Association, Lin Feng also invited two heavyweights to write their impressions on the legend of the swordsman. They are Tracy Sigman and Margaret Weiss.
The names of these two people, many people will be very strange, but mention their masterpiece, it is very familiar. They are the authors of the chronicle of the Dragon spear. When it comes to the chronicle of the Dragon spear, many Chinese readers may feel unfamiliar with it, but it is a household name in the West. Known as the classic of Western magic literature, it has been on the best seller list for decades in the West and is the classic among the classics.
Of course, this novel was only created to set off the expert level "dragon and dungeon" system of "TSR" at that time. It is a derivative of the game. But its popularity in the west is no less than that of "dragon and dungeons". Both sides can be said to complement each other, mutual benefit, is an inseparable whole. And then countless games are derived from the rules of "dragon and dungeon" and "dragon gun Chronicle".
Of course, the more important point is the Lord of the rings, which is based on the Dragon gun chronicle. But "the Lord of the rings" extracts the fragments, and does not fully show the wonderful story of the whole novel. After all, if you want to show the wonderful story of the whole novel, not to mention the trilogy, even the ten series may not be able to shoot the Dragon gun chronicle. It's a real masterpiece.
——In my opinion, the legend of swordsman is a film with Chinese Oriental fantasy elements, which can represent Chinese culture. Both the protagonist and the supporting actor in the film have their significance and value of existence. This is a very successful film. Compared with the Lord of the rings, which was changed according to the Dragon gun chronicle, at present, I think the Lord of the rings is more magnificent on the scene, especially in the third film, the galloping horse, resisting the invasion of Mordor, the Lord of the rings shows us a real race war. In this respect, the legend of the swordsman is much weaker. However, only two films have been shot in the legend of the swordsman, and the really wonderful third film has not been shot yet. Therefore, we can only put aside the third film and just compare the first two works of the legend of the swordsman and the Lord of the rings.
In terms of plot, the Lord of the rings is more grand, while the legend of swordsman is more delicate. One is about racial aggression and conspiracy, the other is about love between men and women. On this point, from a neutral point of view, I have no distinction. Personal love and the survival of race are equal in terms of the brilliance of the plot. The only difference is which point you prefer to watch. As far as I'm concerned, I'm the author of the Dragon gun chronicle. I prefer the biography of swordsmen because it's a window for me to understand the oriental culture.
From the perspective of pictures, after the Lord of the rings, I always think that at present, the best picture in the movie is the Lord of the rings, and there is no one. However, the appearance of "Legend of swordsman" makes me understand that the East can also make such beautiful movies. What's more, unlike Lord of the rings, many scenes in Lord of the rings are shot in the studio and processed later, while the story of swordsman is shot in a theme park called "swordsman". Everything in it, except that the magic of the East can not be displayed in the real world, you can see and feel everything else in the "Xianjian theme park". Especially the magnificent "lock demon tower" was actually built. It's crazier than when Cameron built a "Titanic" by shooting "Titanic", but I like this craziness.
As for film music, I think the music of both sides set off the plot very well. I'm not an expert on this point, and I can't comment on it. If I have to evaluate it, I like the music of the legend of swordsman, because it's very Oriental and makes me feel very exotic.
In terms of actors, the actors of both sides are well chosen, which is very suitable for their respective plots. However, in the supporting role, "the legend of swordsman" is slightly inferior. To sum up, compared with the Lord of the rings, Xianjian Qixia Zhuan is not inferior in all aspects, even if it is weak, it is not too far behind. As far as I'm concerned, "the legend of the swordsman" is a film worth watching.
As a foreign film, if you don't watch it, it's really a pity—— Tracy Hickman commented.
——In my opinion, Tracy's evaluation is very pertinent, and my evaluation is similar to that of him. Although I don't think that the two movies in "the legend of the swordsman" have reached the height of "the Lord of the rings", as a foreign film, especially a Chinese film, if you don't watch it, it would be a pity that you will miss such a wonderful film. As for the grudge between Lin Feng and American movies, it's just the grudge between Lin Feng himself and some giants in the American film industry. That's all. It can't be the trouble for everyone to enjoy the legend of the swordsman.
Margaret Weiss also commented.
The two authors of the Western fantasy novels, who are close to the top of the line, highly praised the legend of the swordsman, which has aroused a strong response in the American film industry. As the authors of Western magic novels, they highly praised the legend of the swordsman, and even took the initiative to compare it with the Lord of the rings. This makes the whole western film industry feel a kind of shame.
As for the American people, since the two authors of the Dragon gun chronicle are so optimistic about the oriental legend of the swordsman, and 55% of American cinemas are vigorously promoting it, there is no reason why they should not go to see it.
Three days later, at the world premiere of the west, the box office was full. 5 yuan for a ticket, which for Americans, is by no means an unbearable loss. If it doesn't look good, it's a big loss of $5. For Americans with an annual per capita income of nearly $20000, they can afford just $5.
And as a result, it's fun. Although the number of people and the scenes of "lock demon tower" in the legend of swordsman are few, almost all of them are in the "lock demon tower", the beautiful pictures of Eastern magic fighting and the lifelike scenes of the lock demon tower in the whole film make the western audience enjoy watching them. The magic system of Oriental Fantasy is a novel idea for the west, but it is full of logic and rigorous.
In the end, the life and death of love moved the westerners who always advocated love. This way of sacrificing oneself for the sake of the enemy of love is very powerful for the Westerners of love aestheticism. Although they think that the development of love in "Xianjian" is too slow, and the relationship between men and women is a little too formal and careful, they are fascinated by the great power of love.
It's not fun to watch it again. Westerners usually watch a good movie twice, or even many times. That's why the U.S. box office exceeds the global box office. Lin Feng's policy of "four times of watching is free" makes Westerners happy to spend money to watch a movie with superb pictures. Let's not talk about whether they can enjoy such an oriental film, just for this beautiful picture, the ticket price is worth it.
Five dollars for the first time, two and a half dollars for the second time, one dollar for the third time, and free for the fourth time. How can such a cheap ticket price not be a blessing for those young people who are in financial difficulties but are looking for a place to fall in love.
Naturally, the box office is high. Although it does not reach the box office of China, it is still unacceptable for the western film industry that Lin Feng's film can reach the box office of US $70 million in the first week. You know, this is still the case when they completely shut down, only relying on the comments of a few writers, it has reached such a point, which makes Sony Columbia and other companies quite shameless.
"Damn it, it's all because Lin Feng controls 55% of the movie screen. If not, he can't have such a high box office!" Deep out of the well roared in the office. He has gone to great lengths to make trouble for "the legend of the swordsman". Together with other film companies, he asked the major media channels to offer Lin Feng 10 times the price, forcing Lin Feng to give up publicity. As a result, Lin Feng found something strange and invited the author of the most popular magic novel in the west to publicize the legend of the swordsman. As a result, "the legend of the swordsman" became very popular in the West.
"Blame the authors!" Well deep out of what is not good, immediately sent to find JK Rowling, Tracy Hickman and Margaret Weiss. Let them revise their comments and make some negative comments on the legend of the swordsman, and claim that they were bewitched by Lin Feng. As a result, it was almost crazy that the three people didn't agree, but they told Lin Feng about it. As a result, Lin Feng, after sending someone to protect the three people, directly made the scandal public.
There was a global uproar. Although it is normal for film critics to make malicious comments on certain films, it is also very normal for the film industry. There are such hidden rules in all countries. Even Sony, Columbia, Paramount Pictures and other major companies have attacked each other. But it's funny to make it public. This is disgusting.
Naturally, the audience is all in favor of JK Rowling. After all, their reputation is much better than that of film companies. Sony Columbia Pictures, in particular, is not a company with a good reputation. For example, the animation in front of their company's movie, the woman similar to "victory goddess", although she helped Sony Columbia shoot such a world-famous opening animation, as an individual, this poor woman was poor because she refused some hidden rules.
It can be said that Sony Columbia Pictures has not had a good reputation. However, for the audience, they only care about the quality of the film, rather than whether the film company entrapped the actors. But this time, such a scandal broke out, which really made every movie fan angry. You know, JK Rowling is now the most popular creator of Harry Potter and an inspirational writer. As for Tracy Sigman and Margaret Weiss, they are loved by Western readers. These three authors were persecuted by Sony Columbia Pictures. How can they not make people angry.
"I use my personality to guarantee that this is definitely a misunderstanding. I have never asked the three writers to make any negative impact on Lin Feng. I just hope that they can watch the film again and make a second comment on this novel Well out of the deep also know the result of provoking public anger and miserable, hastened to explain. However, he felt reluctant to give this explanation, let alone the public.
Many Americans are crying out to let the Japanese get out of the well and not to tarnish the old film companies in the United States. In this regard, well deep out of the face is not happy. This company, however, was acquired by Sony, and he is the grandson of the main founder of Sony, i.e. Inoue Shen Da. He will not hand over the power of the company. This is a promise to his ancestors.
If, under normal circumstances, a low-key treatment is adopted when the well is deep, the matter will not be settled in the end. It won't have a big impact on the company. Unfortunately, the opponent he met would not let him pass the test so easily.
"Although I am only a Chinese and a businessman, I am a businessman with conscience. Although I make movies to make money, I will never do anything harmful. I've invited JK Rowling, Tracy Sigman and Margaret Weiss to comment on my investment in "the legend of the swordsman". But I have never asked them to make any biased comments on my films, which I can guarantee with my personality! " Lin Feng held a press conference to announce his personal attitude towards the incident.
"Mr. Lin, we believe in you." Among the people who attended the press conference, there were many ordinary people. They supported Lin Feng, so they came to the press conference.
Asshole! idiot! Deep out of the well hit the table hard. No one believes Lin Feng's personality guarantee, but no one believes Lin Feng's personality guarantee. What a shame! At this moment, there is an impulse to accuse the American people of favoring one over the other. These people are so bullying. There is no such thing! Of course, compared with the bullies of the American people, Lin Feng is a bully.
"Now, at my request, I am deeply shocked that the three great writers who wrote the story of the swordsman, whom I admire very much, have been threatened by some companies that have no capacity. We should condemn and despise this kind of immoral behavior together! " Lin Feng made a disdainful gesture, "I hope you can go to the company gate with me and despise him severely!" Lin Feng said.
Deep well out of the rage. It's too bullying. Lin Feng is too bullying. No wonder he held a press conference near Sony Columbia! What a bully( It's not finished yet.
