Best Movie Star

The media's praise for Matthew's performance in "I Am Legend" not only exceeded Matthew's expectations, but also caught the fans who have always supported him by surprise. Xiu was never known for his acting skills, and even Roger Albert criticized him as "a male vase who only shows off his body."

In a house in the Westwood District of Los Angeles, a large number of Matthew's fans gathered here as soon as the sun rose.

"This time, the people who praised Matthew's acting skills are basically journalists from major entertainment media, and film critics still focus on criticism."

Brian Liszt flipped through the newspaper and said to several companions, "But the film critics are fair this time, and the criticism of the film is basically not on Matthew."

A black man answered, "That's because Matthew is too good. If they abused him indiscriminately, they would lose even the most basic credibility."

"You said that Matthew's performance was outstanding this time..." Daenerys interrupted suddenly, "Can you win an Oscar for acting."

The black man immediately shook his head, "Impossible, how can this kind of commercial blockbuster be possible, it's still a science fiction theme."

Brian Liszt echoed, "As far as I know, Matthew is not very interested in the Oscars, and you can guess by looking at the films and roles he chose. This time he is very good, and he was nominated for Best Actor in the Oscars better than some inexplicable in the past. The protagonist is much stronger, but Oscar needs PR..."

Others nodded, and Oscar PR was never a secret, even for fans.

"Matthew probably won't take the initiative to go to public relations." Brian Lister continued, "It depends on what Warner Bros. thinks."

He shrugged, "But I don't have much hope. If you don't take the initiative to compete, the old men in the academy might not even look at you."

"Let's talk about it." He seemed very rational, and raised the newspaper in his hand and said, "The film critics still give bad reviews to the film."

The Negro asked, "What did the newspapers say?"

Someone asked later, "Brian, tell me about the movie reviews in the newspaper, and see if those bad guys can stop our Matthew?"

In fact, everyone knows that critics are never vulnerable to Matthew's criticism. Except for "Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl", the films starring Matthew are always rated as bad by critics. Lord, bad reviews never stop Matthew from having success time and time again.

They also formed a perception that Matthew is the kind of star who makes movies for fans!

So, every time a Matthew's film comes out, it's a lot of fun to see the almost one-sided vitriol of the critics, then go to the theater to watch the movie, and then wait for the first-week box-office success to watch those critics disgraced.

Bryan Lister singled out the entertainment section with the review column and said, "The San Francisco Chronicle thinks that director Guillermo del Toro is very good at handling pompous scenes, and he's also smart enough to make Matthew stayed true to himself, but the CGI monsters just didn't seem to fit in with this kind of sci-fi."

He flipped through the newspaper, "Detroit News' film review column: Matthew is worth watching, the film isn't."

"Shh..." There was a roar from below.

Daenerys muttered, "It seems to be praising Matthew, but it's actually a subtle attack. Isn't Matthew's film worth watching?"

Brian Lister opened another paper, "The Hollywood Reporter's Todd McCarthy: This is just a second-rate horror film of adventure fiction."

The black man immediately replied, "He's still a poor film critic!" He continued, "I'm not saying he's not a good film critic, but film critics are a bunch of people who rely on movies to **** blood but don't know how to respect them. crap!"

Thinking of the critics' attacks since Matthew's rise to fame, there was a chorus of echoes in the room.

Brian Lister didn't say a word, and let his companions vent as much as Bella Anderson once taught him. This practice of erecting a clear group of enemies is very helpful for fans to unite and support them with greater strength. star.

Externally erecting enemies can often solve many internal problems.

Running a fan organization also requires brains and certain operational capabilities.

When the room was a little quieter, Brian Lister added, "That's a good one! From The Boston Globe: "I Am Legend" is actually a movie starring the last true movie star on Earth as the last one on Earth. A man's film."

He went on to say, "And here's a compliment to Matthew. USA TODAY said: Matthew's infectious performance wasn't enough to save 'I Am Legend,' a thought-provoking, engrossing take on loneliness from the start. Action movies, gradually take the wrong turn, and never get back on track."

"Cut..." Many people said, "These people are praised, but also have ulterior motives."

"These rotten people are still slandering Matthew's bad movie after all."

Brian Liszt didn't say anything, and waited until the companions in the room finished venting, then said, "It's almost time, let's go to the theater."

"Yeah!" Daenerys raised her voice, "Let's go to the private venue to support Matthew!"

"Walk!"

"let's go!"

A group of dozens of people left the house, walked towards a cinema not far away, met another group of dozens of movie fans at the intersection, and soon came to the cinema, ready to book an entire cinema hall.

"Shade 5 is almost full?" Brian Liszt was negotiating with the theater conductor. "What about the hall 6 we used before?"

The conductor said helplessly, "There are more than 20 spectators in the No. 6 theater, so I can't package it for you alone."

"Where's the twelfth?" Brian Lister asked again.

"Sorry, Brian, we can't provide you with an independent movie hall for the time being." The theater conductor looked helpless, "Starting at seven o'clock this morning, the theater has six screenings of "I Am Legend" every fifteen minutes. , More than 20 spectators bought tickets for all the shows, and pre-sold tickets for the shows that have not yet been shown. I'm sorry, but we really can't provide reserved venues today. "

He tentatively put forward a suggestion, "Otherwise, you will be scattered into other sessions?"

Brian Liszt frowned slightly. They came early enough. It was just nine o'clock, and it was still nine o'clock on Friday. Generally speaking, most people need to go to work and go to school...

The theater duty manager rushed over from the office at this time, shook hands with Brian Liszt, asked for the details, thought about it for a while, and said, "Well, I'll adjust it."

He picked up the phone, dialed a number, and said directly, "Isn't the 9:30 "Golden Compass" not sold even a single ticket? Remove it and replace it with the screening of "I Am Legend", you can do it now !"

Hearing this, Brian Liszt breathed a sigh of relief.

The conductor also breathed a sigh of relief. After all, there were hundreds of people stuck in the front hall of the theater, which was not an option. Too many people could easily cause trouble.

The theater duty manager put down the phone and said to Brian Liszt, "Wait a moment, and the eleventh theater will be ready in no time."

Brian Lister was still very polite, "Thank you."

The work efficiency in the theater is very high. The fans led by Brian Liszt and Daenerys quickly entered the No. 11 theater. These people not only bought movie tickets, but also bought various beverages and food. Popcorn alone costs more than $300.

"You should pay attention in the future..." The theater duty manager instructed several conductors. "Matthew Horner's fans often show up for group bookings, and they must notify me as soon as they encounter them."

For theaters, Matthew Horner is the guarantee of turnover!

He works on the front line of the market, and he feels the most real. In the past two years, names like Tom Hanks and Tom Cruise are not as easy to use as Matthew Horner. Matthew- The name Horner is the guarantee of the box office!

The manager on duty encountered a busy Friday. In just one morning, three groups of movie fans with about a hundred people came in and asked to watch "I Am Legend" in a private room. The screening of the film ~www.wuxiaspot.com~ was changed to "I Am Legend" to respond to the latest changes in the market.

The popular screenings were all reported to Matthew through Warner Bros.' first-line market research, and Matthew also frequently appeared in the media to hawk his new work.

This film is different from the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, and even different from any previous film. The protagonist of "I Am Legend" is only him. It is a complete one-man show, and the box office can directly reflect his business call. force.

In an interview with The New York Times on Friday night in the Waldorf Astoria parlour, Matthew spoke out for the film "I Am Legend."

Anyway, he is thick-skinned enough to brag about himself.

"I really like to put the plot of small characters into a grand story. The most successful film of this concept of mine is "I Am Legend"." Matthew said with a blushing face: " "I Am Legend" can never be a stage play, can it? Everyone knows this movie, it's a one man movie, a man and a dog, as a blockbuster, you may feel that this movie needs more A lot, but by far this is by far the most open and most paid film I've ever made."

He also mentioned performances that have been lauded by the media, "That's what I'm obsessed with - you don't need a lot of performances because people don't want to see performances in a movie, and if you perform too much, you're going to screw the audience. Run away, you just have to play your role in the most appropriate way! I think, I did it!"

Matthew shouted hard, and Warner Bros. promoted it vigorously. There is only one criterion for the success of "I Am Legend" - the box office!
