"The game that Deadpool and Vanessa played on International Women's Day?"

The director of this film is Murphy. He just thought for a moment and knew what kind of game it was. A little sweat leaked from his forehead, and he quickly changed the subject, "Honey, you just said Bill gave me a shot. Phone, didn't he say anything?"

Gal Gadot didn't intend to give up on this, but he didn't go on. Instead, he focused on Murphy's question and said, "I almost forgot."

She stood up and ran all the way into the living room. After a while, she ran back again, with an extra fax in her hand.

"This is a fax from Bill." Gal Gadot handed it to Murphy, pulled a chair, and sat next to him, "Congratulations, dear."

The numbers on the fax are definitely good news for Murphy, and Murphy's good news is Gail Gadot's good news.

Murphy received the fax, and the first thing he saw was a number in bold and black—$7.52 million!

This is the box office revenue of "Deadpool" in all early shows in the United States, and it is also a terrifying number.

Seeing this number, Murphy’s first feeling is relaxation. The feeling that the pressure disappears instantly brings a kind of real relaxation, followed by a certain joy, although this number is not as good as it used to be. "Deadpool", but now without the high prices of 3D and IMAX, it is really rare for an R-rated film.

And it was also marked on the fax that the $7.52 million early box office was also the second highest R-rated film in North America after "The Matrix 2: Reloaded".

"Oh, yes." Gal Gadot said again. "Before I went for a run, I looked at the Internet. At that time, the freshness of rotten tomatoes was as high as 86%. The one behind..."

She scratched her head, seemingly unable to remember.

Murphy reminded, "It represents the popcorn index that the audience wants to see?"

"Yes, it's the Popcorn Index." Gal Gadot recalled, "The Popcorn Index reached 99%. And IMDB, with a score of 8.7."

She looked at Murphy, "It seems that the film’s reputation and box office are better than "Sin City."

Murphy had put the fax aside, nodded and said, "Of course it's getting better and better."

He took the newspaper that Gal Gadot had brought in earlier and looked through it.

Just like Murphy, at this moment, countless people in North America got today's newspaper, and from the headlines of the entertainment section of the newspaper, they saw "Deadpool"'s US$7.52 million early North American box office revenue, which was attracted. Next, read the relevant comments in their respective newspapers.

"Los Angeles Times" commented: Murphy Stanton blended his own personal style with the role of Deadpool very well, bringing a very interesting superhero movie, you can't imagine this movie is so interesting , This kind of pleasure is difficult to be copied, and it feels that the "X-Men" series is difficult to surpass this film.

With a perfect score of 100, the "Los Angeles Times" gave "Deadpool" a score of 88.

The New York Times also scored eighty-eight points. They also spoke highly of the film: "Deadpool" is the kind of movie that will fail if you don’t pay attention to it. The film is filled with self-knowing humor, but in its love The story and the revenge story are serious enough to keep the audience engaged.

The famous film magazine "Premier" also gave the film a score of up to 80 points: noisy and wretched, ingenious and outrageous, "Deadpool" is a pleasant experience, the main credit goes to Murphy Stanton and the whole The team has the guts to shoot like this.

Even "The New Yorker", which has always been known for being acrimonious, gave a high score of 75 points. They commented: "Deadpool" is a special superhero movie, full of blood, violence, and sex. *And black humor, Murphy Stanton made certain changes to the plot in the comics, but these changes can make it easier for ordinary fans to understand the plot of the film. The film contains a lot of comedy elements, **** and violent scenes, and action scenes. The speed is very fast and the rhythm is clear. As a film adapted from comics, "Deadpool" not only captures the essence of the characters, but also complements them.

"Shall we go to watch this movie at night?"

Inside the Redmond Microsoft headquarters, a programmer secretly read the newspaper and asked a fan friend who was reading the website next to him, "The newspaper is almost full of praise. It seems to be better than last weekend's "Hellboy". a lot of."

"Go! Why not?" The companion wearing a baseball cap kept nodding, and said, "IMDB and other websites are also very well received, and the review group I belong to went to the premiere last night and thought that the film Excellent."

"There are also comments from the review group here." He simply read to his companions, "Murphy Stanton's hero movie is really extraordinary, and the mouth is high-level, just like that super spit friend next to you, you Knowing that you can never say such wicked words, you can still love to listen to everything around him, and then clap your hands in applause. However, such a down-to-earth Deadpool does not want to be tall and save the world, just to continue to unlock various poses with the female ticket , And thus embarked on the road to fight against the evil unlicensed small clinic. It is enough to look at the various heights of Spider-Man next door. Looking at this bitch, it feels so refreshing and pleasant."

The programmer over there also opened the website and looked up the audience comments of "Deadpool". Similar to the professional film reviews in the newspaper, there was also a lot of praise on the Internet.

"The action design is simple and neat, beautiful and intense. Although the dialogue is very cheap, it has to be endless, but it is really interesting. The special effects are really good, and it shocks the audiovisual in minutes. Deadpool is too funny, funny, but that is again In any case, he can become a hero and get true love."

"Deadpool is cheap enough. The whole film is full of swear words, and the narrative and editing methods are also refreshing, which will not make people uncomfortable to watch. There are a lot of **** pictures, and it is often uncomfortable to make people feel tight."

"From the opening subtitles to the ending subtitles, there is always a mouthful, everywhere spitting, and it may be stubborn at any time, cold humor and meaty paragraphs fly together, plasma and dew points on the screen. This film is deep in the essence of comics and characters, and entertaining. Sex is also the best in similar movies."

After reading these comments, the designer just felt itchy, wishing it was the weekend, so I could go out and watch the film immediately.

"Man!" he said to his companion wearing a baseball cap, "you can't work overtime if you say anything today, we will leave after get off work."

"I'm going home first." The baseball cap pointed to his clothes. "Can't you wear this one to see it? I bought the Deadpool uniform the other day."

"Okay, see you in the theater!"

"See you at the cinema!"

The direct result of a good reputation and sufficient media promotion is that starting from Friday afternoon, the major theaters in North America showing "Deadpool" ended the deserted situation since the Oscars ceremony. A considerable number of viewers In the theater, the main goal is the same film.

Although there is no queuing in most theaters, it is not an exaggeration to describe it with full of voices.

In an imperial theater in Chicago's wealthy district, the famous film critic JR Jones sits in the waiting area, waiting for his movie to start.

As a professional film critic, he can enjoy the treatment of watching movies for free. When the time comes, he walks into the theater and randomly chooses a relatively backward position so that he can exit at any time after the movie starts.

In front of him, there were two ordinary fans, it seemed that one of them had already watched "Deadpool", and was eloquently talking to the other.

"First of all, I must confess that I was not optimistic about "Deadpool" in advance. Therefore, the reputation of the film after it was released was a bit unexpected."

Hearing this voice, JR-Jones took out his notebook and pen, ready to write down the fan’s point of view, "Until the morning I watched this film in the theater, I must admit: such a superhero least like this. The character in the comics is really fun."

The fan seemed to be happy to share with others, "The fun of Deadpool lies in one word: cheap. If it's three words, it's super cheap."

JR-Jones is also very happy to record the opinions of fans, because it will save him a lot of trouble, "Deadpool is a chatter, and it is a very venomous chatter. It hurts people and is mean and mean. The pleasure."

"What makes Deadpool's poisonous tongue more funny is Murphy Stanton's numerous references to popular culture, from movies to comics, from real politics and celebrities. What's more interesting is that there are more than deaths in the film. Serve a person with a poisonous tongue, his best friend is more poisonous than Dead Servant..."

The big screen in front suddenly lit up, and the theater became quiet. The person in front also shut up. JR-Jones shrugged, put away his pen and notebook, and after watching the beginning of the meeting, he walked directly out of the theater and planned to go to the manager. In the office, find a familiar shift manager for a drink. When the film is about to end, come back to watch the end and write a professional film review.

He and more than 80% of his colleagues basically work in this way.

Most of the time, he and his colleagues from other newspapers and magazines will meet in the theater. Usually they just scan the blog site, drink together, and leave the theater to go to a nearby bar together, and then at the end of the movie, they either stay in the bar and wait. The audience come in, or go back to the theater hall to listen to the discussion.

They will record the discussions and take some notes, ask people what they think is the best and worst part of the film, and nod and agree in the middle, as if they feel the same way.

However, JR-Jones thinks that he is more professional than these people. What he often does after becoming famous is not only to go to the theater to watch the beginning, but also to go back to the end responsibly.
