我喜歡看電影,它能讓我認識,感受,理解別的世界,它給了我很多東西包括歡笑,眼淚,感動,知識,回憶。雖說 Avatar 也有它想帶出的信息,但觀感還是這戲最主要,最重要的賣點,也是吸引觀眾入場觀看的主要原因。不論 Up in the Air, The Hurt Locker, Precious 等同年電影素質有多高,最終票房一定大有距離,可惜,幸好能在其他方面有所認同,有些東西就是叫好不叫座。
你或許不同意我所説的,認為我想太多,但我希望觀眾,電影市場能容納的,不只高科技和大制作電影。
Hollywood,歐美電影還好,市場大,冷門電影就算入場觀眾相對地少,也有可能賺錢,除非質素強差人意,或和投放資金不成正比。香港電影市場細,電影質素參差,且很多香港人總對自家作品有些偏見,我不只一次聽到「香港出品就唔洗入戲院睇」之類的話,是因某些質素差就一竹篙打一船人嗎?請不要盲目崇洋!外國出品就一定較好嗎!?那你的眼光也真淺!或許因為這樣,香港電影越來越不香港,因要顧及中港台所有市場才值得人投資,所以當大家都在談論「歲月神偷」有多富香港色彩,刻劃了港人特質時,我更是開心,期待,興奮!隨著時代改變,香港電影也跟着反映出不同年代香港人的心態和價值觀,大家喜歡看電影,有時也因它讓你有共鳴。港味電影買少見少,「歲月神偷」的劇本也等了十年才找到人投資,張婉婷,羅啟銳也有着打不死的港人精神。坦白說,我不在香港,不能入場支持(但希望在港的你會!),我也不排除我可能因等不了而下載來看,對,這是不對的,但若然喜歡,我一定會賣碟珍藏!一定!
我討厭別人跟我説為什麼要買碟?下載不就行了嗎?若然喜歡,你定會覺得需要支持吧(最好當然是入場支持,電影是屬於電影院的!),而且我買的很多是二手舊戲,價錢便宜,是物超所值。你不支持,但又期盼有高質素的作品看,不付出但要有回報,正正是我們這些很多在溫室長大的一代的錯誤價值觀;相反地看,電影工作者們,你也不能要求一部粗制濫做的作品大收,好評如潮,做壞了名聲也許是香港電影業失利的其中一個原因,很多人都先入為主地覺得「香港電影就一定無好嘢」,但這我十分不認同。娛樂事業是互惠互利的,我深信大家都期待有心,有質素的作品出來。商業歸商業, 商業也有好壞之分,文藝也有。當然是好是壞,十分主觀,但我信有心和好的東西定有人懂得欣賞。
我知道電影對大部分人來說只是娛樂的其中一種而已,你或許覺得我過於認真,但對於認真地想成為當中(尤其香港電影)一份子的我,真的很重要,因它是我的夢,自小的夢。
我不知我的夢會否成真,但迷失過後的我正在為它而努力,那怕艱辛,所以祝我好運吧!
p.s. Leo, Horace, 我衷心期待我們能在工作上合作的那一天!好老土,但要一齊加油呀!哈哈!
p.p.s. 突然想起一套令我很感動的舊戲... Cinema Paradiso。

Karen,
妳這篇影評和對於電影的看法,尤其是對香港電影的感受,深深感動了我。不知何故,(不敢相信)看到最後,我竟然流下眼淚。(所以我急不及待,馬上回應,怕稍後感覺走了,懶/羞於啟齒。而家仍是淚眼模糊在手寫板上寫的。)
"...因它是我的夢,自小的夢。"這是一絛艱辛的路,我只能祝福妳萬事勝意,心想事成!
Karen,妳真的成長了,不再是MJ檯後的朗讀妹頭。
不談啦,我要馬上打電話去問旅遊保險事,因曼谷突然有變。Take care!!!
HAHA! This is scandalous! You used my name to draw me to read this! Im just poking fun, I really enjoyed it.
I'm glad avatar didn't win too, and yea it's not like i'm just trying to dislike what everyone else likes, I just think them not winning is good for all movie makers in general. If they would've won, it would just mean graphics + technology > lack of. It was a good movie, and the money it made should be rewarding enough. James Cameron vision was also unbelievable. But ultimately, acting acting acting let it down. They should've taken more of a risk, choosing uglier people who could act instead of pretty people who couldn't. Or picked people who was both! (Ewan McGregor springs to mind) That was their downfall.
But 'the Hurt Locker'? Really? The trailer and concept was good, but movie was dry and long. Acting was good but I couldn't watch the whole thing, because I have a life to live. On the other hand, 'Up' would've won if I was in charge, just an awesome movie. But other than that I think most categories I was happy with.
Lastly I think buying DVDs is good too to support the movie, but primarily I think what people mean when they say why not download and not buy is there the truth is: the downloaded and the bought product, is exactly the same. So even though I am on your side and I do buy from time to time, I'd rather suggest people go back to cinemas! I know london is expensive, but if I was in hk, I'd go everyday! You watch it the way they intended you to, and enjoy the good old date like feeling when you could do much more with your gf than just watch a movie. HAHA.
I started my relationship in a cinema! Nothing beats that.
Okay good luck, and yes that was very tacky about the working together. Yee, so gross.
