Made in Hollywood

Walking out of the screening hall, Kyle joined his sister Ella and left the IMAX theater. Since they were not very far from the hotel where they were staying, the two did not take a car and walked towards the hotel on foot.

The bright street lamps illuminated the sidewalks, bringing light to the city that resembles Gotham. Kyle stepped on his shadow step by step, and when he heard the coughing next to him, he couldn't help but look at his sister.

He asked with a slight difference, "Aren't you a Duke fan? Why did you leave the show early?"

Ella pouted quickly and said without thinking, "I'm a Duke fan because his films are great! But this "Dark Knight"..."

She shook her head, "It's the ugliest of all Duke films!"

"Why?" Kyle didn't understand how her sister would have such a view on such a wonderful film, "I think it's a pity to miss this film."

"I have no regrets at all."

After arranging the backpack straps on her shoulders, Ella explained casually, "This movie is heart-wrenching, it's not as joyful and exciting as his previous movies at all, I watched half of it and only felt uncomfortable. I went to the movies. It's entertainment, and this kind of movie can't make me happy!"

"Uh……"

Opening his mouth, Kyle found that he couldn't say anything to refute, and he stepped up slightly, reminding, "It's getting late, let's go back quickly."

No reason is stronger than 'I don't like it'.

Although he couldn't refute Ella's words, after returning to the hotel and turning on the computer, Kyle found countless people who agreed with him.

On IMDB, nearly 10,000 people have already rated "The Dark Knight" during the time he returned to the hotel from the theater. The score is an astonishing 10!

Looking at this number, Kyle put down the mouse and scratched his head. In his impression, it seems that no film has ever received a full score from IMDB after its release, even Duke's previous films have not been able to do so.

a film. Even if it is rated by people who like it, the chances of getting a 10 are not high.

However, Kyle knows that as the number of people scoring increases, "The Dark Knight" cannot continue to remain above ten.

Putting the rating aside for the time being, he clicked on the comment column of the video, which was the same as the rating. Great reviews.

An ID called 'The Duke Loves Explosion' said so - I would without a doubt consider The Dark Knight the best movie ever! Duke Rosenberg perfectly integrates business and art, with the ultimate balance between profound and popular, and uses majestic soundtracks, exciting scenes and penetrating performances to completely shock people's feelings. So I say to everyone who hasn't seen it - it's definitely one of the biggest regrets in your life to miss it!

The ID of "I Love Blast Maniac" wrote this - Duke Rosenberg's greatest success is the game between the Joker and Batman, which has a heart-pounding fight scene. There are also brain-burning and twisting storylines, and even blackening the repressed dark heroes, the plot handling in between is very good. If you are faced with a difficult choice, throwing it out and letting others choose can reflect human nature. In fact, a large part of it is to promote a truth, and it is admirable to be able to sublimate in the plot. It's also the deepest of all superhero movies.

After reading two comments, Kyle put his hands on the keyboard and typed out a line of his own opinion.

"Batman is the least comic book hero, and that's what makes it the most likely exception to cross the line between crime drama and comic book hero. The film is rich, rigorous and cool, and it is perfect in terms of satisfying the audio-visual and excavating the complex level of human nature!"

After commenting, he gave the film a 10-point rating without hesitation.

After the rating is finished, the webpage refreshes automatically. At this time, more than 12,000 users have commented on "The Dark Knight", and the rating is still - ten!

"It's strange."

Ella's voice came from behind, and she didn't seem to understand, "How can such a film get ten points?"

Kyle turned his head, looked at her and asked, "How much do you want to score?"

"That's a passing score of six."

Obviously, Ella didn't like the movie, "It's painful to watch a movie like this."

After speaking, she waved her hand and walked towards the suite's own bedroom, saying as she walked, "Forget it, since it's a Duke movie, I won't give it a low score."

Making a face at Ella's back, Kyle turned back and continued to pay attention to the information about "The Dark Knight" on the Internet.

When he opened the instant sharing website and searched casually, he couldn't help showing a strange expression. There was a well-known film critic applauding Duke's film.

Kyle knows a little bit about the feud between Duke and professional film critics, although Kenneth Turan, who contributed to the Los Angeles Times, has not attacked Duke and his films very much, but he has not applauded.

Out of curiosity, Kyle opened up this apparently quick review of Kenneth Turan's short film.

"The Dark Knight is not so much a comic book-based superhero movie as it is a dark and highly complex drama, Tim Burton's playful, gothic style in every way. No Batman can compare to The Dark Knight."

"It's definitely not an exaggeration, it surpasses all Batman franchises and even all superhero movies in terms of conceptualization, writing, acting and directing. Duke Rosenberg brings this film, In the compact action plot design, more angles and wider perspectives are used to shoot, and the near-perfect picture shocks the audience. If you are lucky enough to enjoy the IMAX version, you will be even more surprised and cheered.”

"Duke took the vulgarity of comics to a very high level, and he made the discussion about art films and commercial films worthless. "The Dark Knight" not only made the feel of classical tragedy, but also Discusses contemporary hot topics such as terrorism, transcendental power, etc. The most important thing is that the movie looks impeccable!"

Yes, it looks impeccable, and Kyle very much agrees with Kenneth Turan.

It was probably Kenneth Turan's comment that made Kyle feel so good. He flipped through the pages and opened the account of another professional film critic he followed above. Unexpectedly, the film critic also made relevant comments.

Kyle took a look. This is an instant sharing by Richard Chris, a columnist film critic of Time magazine.

"In "The Dark Knight", Duke Rosenberg's rhythm of camera switching is very fast, but he does not stop too much, the camera is not redundant, the action details are not excessively rendered, the description process is concise, and the editing and dialogue are very concise. The visual effects are not deliberately highlighted. The plot development of the entire film can be combined with the visual effects he is good at almost perfectly, making the whole film appear fast-paced and clear in clues.”

"Finally, although I don't like Duke Rosenberg's style, his Dark Knight is the first comic book adaptation to date that is truly artistic!"

Turning off instant sharing, Kyle returned to IMDB. It has been nearly an hour and a half, and the IMDB rating is still ten!

More and more people have commented, and it seems that the entire IMDB has fallen for the film that temporarily holds the No. 1 spot on the TOP250.

"After Duke took over, Batman and other comic book heroes were completely different."

"So good that not a second was wasted!"

"For such a good film, no amount of praise is superfluous."

"Duke Rosenberg is amazing. Hollywood comics movies can shoot such height and depth!"

"Absolutely great work, rather than fighting in literary films, it is better to raise the standard of commercial films like Duke!"

Afterwards, Kyle entered several film and television websites and found that many people called to watch the midnight show together. He was also very moved, but thinking that he would have to catch a plane to leave Chicago in the morning, he could only force this idea.

It can only be said that the early publicity of "The Dark Knight" was too strong. As midnight fell, the number of people in the theaters showing "The Dark Knight" in the United States suddenly increased, and even far exceeded the ticket checking of many popular theaters last weekend. In front of the mouth, there was also a long line of hundreds of people, and the line was once lined up outside the theater.

With the increase in the number of North American theaters, it has been a long time since there has been such a grand scene.

And before the midnight show of "The Dark Knight" started, it set a new North American market record, surpassing 2005's "Star Wars Episode 3: Revenge of the Sith" with 3,160 midnight screening theaters 2915 records held.

"No one doubts that The Dark Knight will set a new North American midnight box office record!"

Sitting in the living room of the hotel suite, Tina Fey said to Scarlett, who was waiting with her for the data, "I don't know if the North American box office will eventually surpass Titanic and Duke's The Lord of the Rings: The King. Homecoming, but the first two weeks of The Dark Knight are sure to break a bunch of box office records in my opinion."

"Unfortunately..." Scarlett flattened her mouth. "Many people have attributed the film to Heath Ledger. It seems that he is the one who deserves the most credit for the film's success."

Hearing Scarlett say this, Duke, who was sitting on the sofa and drinking coffee, put down the cup and said, "Honey, it doesn't matter who gets the credit, you have to understand that we and Warner are the real winners. beneficiaries."

"Of course I know, I just think..." Scarlett shook her head and said nothing.

Just as the clock struck midnight, the fax machine in the corner of the living room suddenly rang, and Tina Fei immediately stood up, "It should be the preliminary statistics of the advance event."

Saying that, she walked over quickly, picked it up and looked at it, her eyes lit up immediately. (To be continued ~^~)
