Chapter 504: Lin Mo redefines the superhero movie!
Applause swept through the entire IMAX theater like a thunderstorm, and the audience jumped to their feet in excitement.
This is absolutely the greatest superhero film of the 21st century!
The Joker is just too badass!!!
Who is the actor playing the Joker? His acting is absolutely explosive!
Holy shit! That final monologue gave me goosebumps!
Director Lin is awesome! He turned a superhero movie into a philosophical film!
Director Lin, forever a god!!!
Just as these audience members said.
"Batman: The Dark Knight" appears to be a superhero movie.
In reality, it's a philosophical film!
At the premiere screening.
The film screening ended.
Everyone stood up and applauded—for the film, for Lin Mo, and for the actors.
Cameron even more excitedly grabbed Lin Mo's hand: "Lin, you've redefined the superhero movie! It has transcended genre bounds, becoming a philosophical epic about human nature!"
Spielberg then patted Lin Mo on the shoulder, his eyes shining with admiration: "From the opening bank heist to the final ferry experiment, every scene is a profound inquiry into human morality; you've made a commercial film with the depth of ancient Greek tragedy!"
That's how it was.
Before they had seen Batman: The Dark Knight, they both simply thought Lin Mo was making a Hollywood-style superhero popcorn flick.
But...
After watching it, they were truly shaken!
Finally, the two said to Lin Mo:
"Lin, get ready to welcome Hollywood's madness—tomorrow your phone will be blowing up!"
Here.
Han Canping, Jiang Wen, Lao Mouzi, Chen Daoming, and others.
After watching the film, they too were deeply shaken.
Han Canping took off his 3D glasses, then looked at the crowd: "This kid really figured out Hollywood's playbook, and not only that, he elevated it to philosophical heights!"
Jiang Wen even burst out with a swear: "Holy shit! This is what a movie should be!"
Zhang Yi Mou then spoke: "I think the most impressive part is still that ferry experiment... one side prisoners, the other civilians; Director Lin used the most commercial techniques to film the deepest moral dilemma—this approach... is brutal!"
"Heath Ledger, the actor who played the Joker, should be called that name, right?" Chen Daoming rarely showed an astonished expression: "I've mixed in theater stages for decades, never seen anyone portray madness with such depth; every one of his gazes tells a story."
Ge Daye softly sighed: "We always say films should tell good Huaguo stories... today Director Lin, using Hollywood's approach, told a human allegory the whole world understands." He paused, "This is true cultural export!"
The film screening ended.
As the director of Batman: The Dark Knight, Lin Mo naturally had to bring his main creative team on stage.
And today's host, as before, is Teacher He.
No way around it—who made Lin Mo acquainted with Teacher He?
Most importantly, Teacher He's affability is unbeatable; as for professional skill, that goes without saying—he's absolutely one of the country's top hosts.
As the lights gradually brightened, Hejiong walked on stage holding a microphone: "Let's welcome the main creative team of Batman: The Dark Knight!"
The whole venue again erupted in thunderous applause.
Lin Mo and Brother Cheng Long brought Bale, Heath Ledger, Gal Gadot, Jason Stansen, Yin Ziwei, including Zhang Yixing, onto the stage.
Although Zhang Yixing just had a cameo, Lin Mo still likes this kid.
Flashbulbs instantly linked into a galaxy; Teacher He laughed and joked: "Director Lin, just now Director Cameron said you redefined the superhero movie—what do you think yourself?"
Lin Mo took the microphone, smiled: "Actually, I just wanted to tell a good story..."
He hadn't finished speaking when the crowd below started heckling.
"Hey bro, you're being way too humble!" Jiang Wen shouted from the audience, drawing laughter from the whole crowd.
Hejiong then passed the microphone to the audience: "Director Zhang Yi Mou, as a fellow professional, what question do you most want to ask Director Lin?"
Zhang Yimou stood up, then looked at Lin Mo and nodded with a smile: "Director Lin, I've always been curious—what opportunity led you to decide to make such a superhero film?"
That's a great question.
The media reporters on site also all turned their cameras toward Lin Mo.
Superhero!
When this topic comes up, everyone's first thought is definitely Hollywood movies.
Lin Mo took the microphone, pondered a moment: "Actually, the superhero is just a vehicle; I want to explore the dialectical relationship between a person who possesses absolute power and this world."
"Batman and the Joker are like two sides of a coin," Lin Mo continued explaining, "one uses order to guard the city, the other uses chaos to deconstruct rules; this extreme opposition yet mutual dependence perfectly reflects the human dilemma in real society."
This answer made many directors in the audience show expressions of sudden realization.
"Awesome, Director Lin made a philosophical proposition more exciting than action scenes!" Feng Xiaogang, after hearing it, couldn't help but say.
Next.
Hejiong then interviewed Bale, Heath Ledger, and others.
Especially Heath Ledger.
To this day, audiences still vividly remember his portrayal of the Joker.
His acting is absolutely explosive!
On the other side.
Online.
No surprise.
The premiere of Batman: The Dark Knight ended, and the whole internet was blown up.

Thus, the comment section is like this.

"This is definitely the best superhero movie I've ever seen, Director Lin is awesome!!!"
"Joker is so badass, the most perfect villain I've ever seen!"
"This movie was made so awesome!!!"
"Huh? The best superhero movie? So exaggerated?"
"Not exaggerated at all, really super good!"
"Seeing what you all say, I now wish I could just go to the cinema, but I can't get tickets!"
"Brothers, the actor who played Joker is Heath Ledger, damn, he's actually the lead of Brokeback Mountain!"
