- "I want to watch "Wedding Day is Coming"" Number of clicks: 1,362
On April 26th, Monday, the movie section of the Los Angeles Times officially launched a new Monday column "VIY Said", occupying one page in the first issue!
In the upper left corner is a handsome photo of Ye Wei, in the middle is his column article "The Past and Present Life of Pranks". In the upper right corner is his profile, which introduces his achievements in various aspects, especially his enthusiasm for charity. In the lower right corner is A small picture of him attending a CDF charity gala.
A sunny, handsome, talented man with both civil and military skills!
Now, it¡¯s impossible for any reader of the film section of the Los Angeles Times not to know this 16-year-old boy.
Brian was also very surprised by the format of the column. One page was like George Clooney getting married. It was amazing! It is said that this was the idea of ??editor-in-chief John S. Carroll. The old man believed that Ye Wei had a bright future and would be a huge asset and "new vitality" for the newspaper - that was his nickname for Ye Wei.
Fans were also pleasantly surprised to see their idol's popularity reach another peak. This is probably how Buffett felt when he read the market!
"The Past and Present Life of Spoof" is still written so sharply, and the ample space allows him to express himself freely. First, he talked about the origin of the film history of Spoof, from Chaplin to "Duck Soup", from "Unprecedented and Unprecedented" to "The White-Headed Detective" ¡± and then talked about ¡°Austin Powers,¡± ¡°The Family,¡± ¡°The Condor,¡± ¡°Boy,¡± ¡°Scary,¡± ¡°American Pie¡±
He used smooth and concise writing to roughly clarify the growth of spoof comedies. Speaking of their techniques, such as the groundbreaking satirical narration, use of video materials and innovative physical techniques in "Duck Soup"; he also talked about their spirit, such as "The Detective" has endless jokes, and "Austin Powers" is so cheap that it's cute.
His views are still bold, interesting, and a little arrogant:
"After the spoof craze from the 1990s to the present, it seems that everyone is going to become a Pillager. They have no intention of creating new satirical jokes, and gradually focus on simple and only parody, making Newbie ) The audience was hooked. The following words are often used to describe today's spoof films, which mock "Movie 1", "Movie 2", "Movie 3" As the saying goes: The elder brother wants to make money to support the family. My brother wants to pursue his dream.¡±
Pillager! Newbie! The use of these two words makes some people applaud, some people are frightened, and some people are very angry. This boy is so brave!
He clearly means that movies like "Scary" are just robbing popular movies of their value and deceiving newbies who don't know much about spoofing and are attracted to theaters because of popular movies.
The last "common saying" in this paragraph is actually a subtle joke. Only movie fans or industry professionals who are familiar with spoof movies will laugh after thinking about it.
Brother Zach! David Zucker, 55, and Jerry Zucker, 53, are both masters in the world of spoofs. Together they have created movies such as "All the Time", the "Whitehead" series, and "Laughing Through the Iron Curtain". In the 21st century, David "degenerately" took over the director's microphone of "Scream 3". Jerry, who has always been a close brother in the spoof business, did not participate in any position this time.
In fact, Jerry has always been more literary and artistic than his brother. He is the director of the classic romance film "The Last Love".
How dare a kid mock David Zucker and the "Scream" series, and even make fun of the audience. How brave are you? But this is just youth and frivolity!
No matter what the Zach Brotherhood thinks, the article continues:
"You can't blame anyone for this. If you can make a lot of money with a cheap comedy, and you still expect Hollywood to use your brain, then you have understood the essence of spoof."
But think about the future. Now there is "Scream" (literally translated as scary movie), and there will definitely be "science fiction movies", "romance movies" or "spoof scary movies" in the future. When every genre is Once done, the end of the parody era will come.
It won¡¯t happen so soon, and for a long time, filmmakers and audiences will enjoy it, like a newlywed couple, until they¡¯ve had enough of each other farting in their sleep.
New stories and new jokes will never go out of style. I hope that by then, we can regain its soul. Prank is not only a mockery of others, but also a mockery of ourselves. It is a crazy interpretation of ordinary life that transcends Unexpected, unconventional, absurd, very close to boredom, but very far away from it.
I also want to see the "Three Hats Juggling" (a classic clip from "Duck Soup"), and I also want to see "Two Girls Fighting in a Bar" (a classic clip from "All the Time"), not just a parody. AnnaSophia agreed and said something very interesting:Reasonable words:
"Since the turn of the 21st century, everything has gone wrong. I've grown taller, my dog ??and Paris Hilton have become movie stars, Beckham has left Manchester United Even if the Red Sox win the World Series, I wouldn't be surprised."
"Beckham what?"
"David-Back-Ham, no, Beckham."
Since then, David Zach has had another nickname.
Very few people can understand this joke directly. Usually they can only understand the first layer of laughter. It is a bit profound. Just like this article, it is not as casual and funny as "My dream is to be a brilliant actor", but it has a more profound meaning. "Death of Film" has a more professional feel. Ye Wei fully demonstrated his deep understanding of spoof movies, which is really amazing.
This guy knows movies and what pranks are! Whether ordinary readers or people in the industry, they will feel this emotion after reading it.
And it is actually another priceless advertisement. It is on the same page, but it is printed with the introduction of his remake of "Wedding Day is Coming". He said it so powerfully, and he looked down on "Scary" and what the soul was. Yes, then his spoof film must not be a simple parody?
The audience is looking forward to it, and the film critics are also looking forward to it. This article really speaks to the hearts of the film critics. Many film critics nodded and praised it. It is well said and exquisitely said!
The "Scream" series has made a lot of money at the box office, but its reputation among film critics has always been extremely poor. On the famous film review website "Rotten Tomatoes", "Scream 3" has only a 36% freshness rating, which is lower than the second installment. 15% is a little better, even the first part of the series is only 54%, and their audience love ratings cannot exceed 55%.
"Unprecedented and Unprecedented Flying All Over the Sky" is 98% and 89%!
It has attracted the attention and recognition of film critics, which is a good thing, especially for the current "rush all the way" publicity strategy, but Brian is still sweating, as if he is walking into a place where the curtain is lowered step by step. Is it hell or heaven behind it?
But given the situation, maybe a few well-known film critics in the industry can be invited to attend this screening? LikeRoger Ebert?
If you can invite Roger Ebert, if you can get his thumb, it will be heaven.
