Just flip through the major forums, especially the main battlefield of fans and sunspots, it can be said that there are corpses everywhere.
And these "corpses" did not come from the fierce battle that just happened, but were dug out from the "graveyard".
"I heard that this movie is neither popular with Chinese nor foreigners? I understand, Cannes is not run by foreigners."
"Cannes was expelled from foreign nationality by Heizi. In the future, it is suggested that the country accept the homeless Cannes, move to Jingzhou, and change its name to Tenda Film Festival."
"Tengda Film Festival? Are you implying that Tengda bought the jury out of money? Congratulations on your truth! (dog head)"
"This movie really depends on marketing. If the foreign box office is not good, I will go to Cannes to win an award. Marketing is a stone hammer! (Dog head)"
"It seems that "Better Tomorrow" does occupy a good time slot. If it is placed in a better time frame, it is estimated that the panties of several other popular movies will be removed."
"The big investment movie that didn't collide with "Better Tomorrow" should be kneeling in the living room to celebrate? It should be the more you think about it, the more afraid it will be."
"Can you tell that joke again? Which one? It's the one about the foreign blockbuster. 'Flying Star Journey'! The real foreign blockbuster is coming!' Hahahahaha!"
"I heard that foreign audiences don't eat this set, and today, foreign theaters not only extended the release date of "Better Tomorrow" but also added films. Once again, I solemnly inform all foreigners: watching this film has the risk of being expelled from your nationality, please be careful Watch!"

Similar comments can be seen everywhere in various forums, and the remarks and posts of those sunspots have been dug up and repeatedly beaten.
Many sunspots were hanged and beaten to death. They either deleted or closed the comments, and most of them could only pretend to be dead.
No way, the result is the best slap in the face!
Before, the sunspots made a mad fuss about the fact that "Better Tomorrow" was not good at the overseas box office, and almost stoned the film only domestically liked it and foreign countries didn't like it.
As a result, the awards at Cannes were really too heavyweight, and it directly played a role in turning things around. All the previous remarks were self-defeating!
Pei Qian leaned back on the boss chair and was silent.
It's not that he wants to see these things, he really can't see them!
There are discussions all over the Internet, and even if you want to go to Weibo to see a young lady, you can swipe the relevant content. It is a 360-degree penetration without dead ends. The "corpses" of the sunspots are hung everywhere and repeatedly flogged , it is simply sad for those who hear it, and tears for those who see it.
Pei Qian silently mourned for these warriors in his heart.
"You have been wronged! The next movie will help you clear your injustice! Please believe me again!"
After flipping through some popular discussion posts, Pei Qian pondered, "Better Tomorrow" should be over, right
The heat is too long!
I never imagined that a movie would have such a strong stamina. From its release in February to the present, the popularity on the Internet has continued one after another.
The most terrible thing is that every time the overwhelming Internet popularity will increase the number of purchases and broadcasts of "Better Tomorrow" hanging on Isle of Ellis.
Pei Qian was very puzzled, how come there are still new audiences at this time
This can't help but remind him of that very famous stalk, who hasn't bought gta5 yet
Fortunately, the nightmare is finally over.
The nightmares that should be done have already been done once, and they have all won awards at international film festivals. It's time to stop, right
The angle of embarrassment has been searched by everyone. Is it possible to draw a conclusion and let this movie rest in peace
Pei Qian intends to stop paying attention to this matter and let its popularity slowly dissipate.
However, just as he was about to close the page, Pei Qian accidentally caught a glimpse of a post.
"Why did "Better Tomorrow" win the Jury Prize?"
Pei Qian couldn't help but sigh, hey, it's another embarrassing post from a conventional angle.
He has seen too many posts like this.
When "Better Tomorrow" successfully won the Grand Jury Award, various popular self-media had already posted a lot of such posts. It was nothing more than to popularize the importance of Cannes and the Grand Jury Award, and to talk about the last time a domestic film won the award. After this award, I will finally analyze why "Better Tomorrow" can meet the taste of the Cannes jury and successfully won this award. By the way, I will reiterate the spiritual connotation and artistry of this film.
Pei Qian has read a lot of such manuscripts and is not very interested.
However, seeing that the popularity of this post seemed to be unexpectedly high, Pei Qian hesitated for a while, but clicked in.
However, just after reading the first sentence at the beginning, Pei Qian was about to faint.
…
"Seeing this topic, do you think I'm going to talk about why "Better Tomorrow" won the award?"
"wrong!"
"What I'm asking is, why did 'Better Tomorrow' win the Jury Prize and not the Palme d'Or?"
"Everyone knows that this year's Cannes gave the Jury Prize to "Better Tomorrow" and the Palme d'Or to "Journey of the Soul," a Southeast Asian film."
"Many people are ecstatic just because "Better Tomorrow" won the Jury Prize. They don't seem to have thought about this question. Why didn't "Better Tomorrow" win the Palme d'Or?"
"In fact, there are many similarities between 'Better Tomorrow' and 'The Journey of the Soul', just by comparing them."
""The Journey of the Soul" tells the story of a poor farmer who saw the soul of his deceased family member after suffering from a terminal illness, and followed the soul to find his past life. The film uses non-professional actors, and most of the dialogues of the characters are also Improvised, and the shots were rarely edited, they were all long takes.”
"Although "Journey of the Soul" shows exotic features and some supernatural elements, it seems to be more in line with the taste of the Cannes jury in pursuit of artistry, but I have to say that this film is compared to "Better Tomorrow". Even in terms of artistry and connotation, there is not that clear advantage."
"On the contrary, "Better Tomorrow" is about concerns about the gap between the rich and the poor, the alienation effect of money on people, capital's manipulation of technology to control people's lives, and people turning into data. Compared with 'soul', it can obviously lead to a wider range of concerns. The resonance and connotation are also more profound.”
"And many people in China, because they don't know Cannes, instinctively think that domestic films will not meet the tastes of the jury, so it is normal that they can't get the Palme d'Or. This is definitely a misunderstanding!"
"In my opinion, compared to "Journey of the Soul", the jury should also be very optimistic about "Better Tomorrow". According to the grapevine, the Palme d'Or actually took three rounds of voting before the final decision."
"Obviously, the awards that seem to have settled in the dust actually have many twists and turns in places we can't see."
"Considering that "Better Tomorrow" has already won the Jury Prize, which is the second place in the de facto main competition unit, "Better Tomorrow" will definitely have a place in these three rounds of voting."
"That's why I asked the first question, why didn't "Better Tomorrow" win the Palme d'Or?"
"If you agree with the above conditions, then please continue reading."
"In my opinion, there are two reasons why "Better Tomorrow" lost the final Palme d'Or to "Journey of the Soul" by a tiny margin."
"First of all, there are unspoken rules in international film festivals. As we all know, in order to compete for better film resources and better maintain the gold content of their awards, these international film festivals will prefer those films that premiere at film festivals and win awards. "
"Some films that have already won awards at other film festivals or have achieved high popularity, film festivals such as Cannes often do not qualify them for selection, because this is equivalent to using their own popularity to make wedding dresses for others, and to those 'pro sons' It's not fair to directors', that is, directors who have had their films premiered at festivals for several years in a row."
"Unless it's a particularly good movie, you can make an exception."
"And "Better Tomorrow" has just been released in overseas regions. Fortunately, the marketing is not strong and the attention is not high, so I was fortunate to be selected in the main competition unit and won the award with its excellent strength."
"But anyway, not premiering at Cannes, so the score of "Better Tomorrow" in the hearts of the jury was invisibly greatly discounted."
"The second reason is mainly my conjecture. I just said it, and everyone listened to it."
"Actually, the content in front of "Better Tomorrow" should be very in line with the taste of the jury, but the problem is... Do you still remember the Easter egg at the end of the film? That is, a pistol was thrown at the door of the hero?"
"As for whether this Easter egg will please the judges... You can judge for yourself."
"Perhaps without this easter egg, the possibility of "Better Tomorrow" winning the award would be a little higher."
"Finally, let me say something very interesting."
"Do you know that in 1998 there was also a film that won the Jury Prize at Cannes? That is, 13 years ago, it won the same award as "Better Tomorrow"."
"The name of the film is "Life is Beautiful", "vita è bel", and the English name is "life is beautiful"."
"And the English name of "Beautiful Tomorrow" is "torro is beautiful"."
"After 13 years, two equally excellent works with similar names have won the same award. There seems to be some kind of wonderful connection somewhere."
"What's interesting is that although "Life is Beautiful" only won the Jury Award, its reputation among domestic fans is far better than that of the Palme d'Or that year."
"In short, we should be happy that "Better Tomorrow" won the award at Cannes. However, we should not feel sorry for just winning the Grand Jury Prize, this film definitely deserves more praise than we thought, let's look forward to it together Feihuang Studio of 'The Light of Domestic Films' will create more and better works for us in the future!"
