"Looking forward to the above, I think it looks better than 'Inception'..."
"Personally, I'm conservative, and I don't particularly like it. However, 60 points is no problem. I think I can give 70 points."
"Wonderful! Wonderful! It's so exciting that I want to scream now! I think it's not only the best commercial blockbuster since last summer's season, but also this year's summer season!"
"Gene Era"
"The space part is still too small, which is a bad review; but the emotional part has increased resonance, which is praised. Overall, I think it is the best summer program so far this year."
"Is it just me? I wondered the whole time: where the hell is Renly? Hahahaha! I mean, I didn't connect Renly to the father of two at all, but it also says something about Renly's The performance was excellent. As for the movie, I thought it was good and worth going into the cinema.”
"As expected of Nolan! I only have this idea in my mind right now."
"I like it. I really like it. I like it very, very much. I can't describe it in words, but the viewing process is really a pure enjoyment."
"I... uh, I don't know how to describe it. I like it and I hate it. Maybe I need to calm down and think about it."
"Ahhh! Best of 2014! Best first half of the year so far! No doubt about it! One hundred, no, I would like to give it a hundred and twenty, it's amazing!"
The frenzied wave of discussions spread in a mighty manner. After the premiere, on Hollywood Boulevard, the audience stayed on the street for a long time as if they were participating in a carnival, singing, celebrating and enjoying themselves. They are scrambling to share their thoughts, so the scene can't help but remind people
"The scene after the premiere of 'Star Wars'."
This is Gavin's original words when he wrote the news, but he also specifically mentioned that "Interstellar" is not a sequel or a huge series of adaptations. Naturally, there are no fanatical fans, and the scene and scale are far from being compatible with each other. It is comparable to "Star Wars Prequel"; it's just that all the audience stayed on the scene and couldn't wait to complete the communication, trying to find a friend who had the same idea as himself. That kind of uncontrollable excitement does have many similarities.
According to the post-screening sampling survey completed by Gavin at the entrance of the Chinese/Chinese Theater:
The audience who liked the movie reached 62.5%, the proportion of the audience who hated the movie was 12.5%, and another 25% of the audience expressed that they were not sure. It may be that it takes time to settle, or it may be a mixture of good and bad, and finally all are classified into the indeterminate level.
Fifty percent of the audience said they expected more, 31.3% said they expected something, and 18.7% said they basically met their expectations.
84.4 percent of viewers would recommend it to a friend, while the remaining 15.6 percent said their friends would not like such movies.
An astonishing 96.9 percent of viewers are willing to come for a second visit. In fact, only one viewer in the sample interview said he did not want to go into the cinema for a second viewing. All other viewers agreed. Said that after the official release of the film, he will watch it again for a second time, not because of whether he likes it or hates it, but more because "Nolan's film really needs to be watched repeatedly", "The visual effects are worth coming to the theater again", "Maybe after watching it again. change your mind" and so on.
Finally, the composition of the sample survey was 60 percent of the male audience and 40 percent of the female audience; the age composition was as high as 87 percent of the audience between the ages of twenty-five and forty-nine. Five, and the percentage of viewers outside this range is 12.5 percent.
In fact, it can be seen from the composition of the sampling objects that the proportion of women is much higher than that of the normal audience structure of sci-fi movies; at the same time, young audiences are also far more than the group composition of moviegoers in the public release stage. This has been seen from the side, the sample of the sample survey still has many uncertainties; in addition, the premiere is a gathering place for enthusiastic movie fans, and the word of mouth is often better than the public release stage.
Still, US Weekly's sample survey provides a window into which to judge the premiere's success index:
At least from the current point of view, this should be the most successful premiere of 2014; and the feedback from the audience has once again proved that the concerns and thoughts of film critics during the previous internal preview meeting were too esoteric. ? Or is there too much power invested in the emotional part? Or is the theoretical part too bold and too risky? Most importantly, will the summer market be able to accept it
The audience feedback information at the premiere is not a mixed bag. In fact, praise is far higher than criticism, but there are quite a few audiences with uncertain views. Obviously, everyone needs more time to digest and settle, from the perspective of commercial attributes. Said, should not be as good as "Pirates of Dreams".
After the release of "Pirates of Dreams" that year, film critics gave it a relatively fair evaluation of 74 points in the media comprehensive review; while the audience said that although they didn't understand it, they really wanted to applaud it. The excitement is enough to make people scream, and the imdb scores and theater scores also proved the audience's support, which also created a prerequisite for the film's box office explosion. Even so, the North American box office of "Inception" is still not able to After crossing the threshold of 300 million, brain-burning movies still limit further outbreaks at the market level.
After the premiere of "Interstellar", it has created a somewhat dull echo in the audience, lacking a burst of excitement and excitement, and failing to really ignite the passion, which also makes the film more popular in the market. In terms of feedback, it has not been able to show the popularity and momentum comparable to "Inception". Of course, part of the reason is that the positioning and core of the two works are different, and the viewing experience is naturally different.
In fact, "Inception" is too brain-burning, which restricts further breakthroughs at the box office; while "Interstellar" focuses more on the emotional level, but can be closer to the audience and impress the audience, which may only be a potential possibility. The movie can achieve unexpected results in terms of summer box office.
As the two nerdy boyfriend viewers interviewed by Gavin said, "This is not hard sci-fi", which is a disappointment for sci-fi fans, but may be a bright spot for other ordinary viewers.
Regardless, the Los Angeles premiere of 'Interstellar' managed to detonate the discussion
From Renly's Hawaiian shirt to Paul's surprise appearance to Marvel casts like Chris Evans and Scarlett Johansson; from the star-studded guest lineup to the festival atmosphere after the premiere , and then to the heated disagreement after the viewing.
All of them are drawing attention to "Interstellar", not to mention how word-of-mouth and comprehensive reviews will develop, but now it is certain that "Interstellar" has landed in the summer and will be released soon. The number of netizens is growing rapidly in a tsunami-like manner. From the perspective of publicity purposes, this is definitely the most successful movie premiere this year.
Before the discussion was further fermented and spread, the "Interstellar" crew arrived in New York collectively the next day and attended the premiere for the second consecutive day.
Compared with Los Angeles, the premiere in New York has less suspense and less madness, and the overall cultural atmosphere is more intense.
Warner Bros. created another premiere scene based on the urban atmosphere of New York, and built a library based on the concept of a physics laboratory, just like NASA in the movie. All books, all research literature and All the discussion blackboards were moved to the site, creating an atmosphere where the "Save All Humanity" plan was born, allowing the audience to be truly immersed in the scene.
Likewise, the New York premiere has a very different guest lineup, with Cate Blanchett, Rooney Mara, Felicity Jones, Damien Chazelle, Jake Gyllenhaal and the Coen brothers Everyone showed up one after another, and even Ben Affleck and Jennifer Garner came to support them, perfectly presenting the cultural differences between the East Coast and the West Coast.
After the New York premiere, the post-screening interview session lasted nearly an hour. Unlike Los Angeles, New York audiences really began to discuss theories of black holes, wormholes, interstellar travel, time reversal, five-dimensional space, etc. , and even raised many questions to Nolan.
Faced with such a scene, Renly couldn't help but joke, "Can the rest of our actors clock in and get off work first?"
But Nolan was more comfortable and more enjoyable. He shared many thoughts and opinions with the audience. The on-site staff reminded several times that the premiere should be over. Instead, Nolan stopped the staff and continued the interview. , really welcomes these questions and challenges with open arms.
"I'm not a professional physicist or astronomer, and of course, 'Interstellar' is not a documentary film that fully discusses science; but I always think that respecting scientific facts is a very important thing, those who question the existence, And it just said that what we wanted to discuss resonated. It reminded me of Renly's 'Gravity' last year, and to be honest, Renly and I discussed a lot of details about that film as well. ; So, I very much welcome everyone to join in, questions that I can't answer, maybe other viewers can give answers."
At the end of the premiere, Nolan once again graciously issued an invitation, hoping that all the audience would join the discussion together, which also brought an end to the New York premiere.
First in Los Angeles, then in New York, and then there will be premieres in other cities, but the first stage of the publicity work has come to an end for now, and now comes the tense moment when word-of-mouth is officially lifted.
