Chapter 871: The scariest part of Duke Rosenberg's movie

If you ask me why criminals chose to shoot The Dark Knight Rises when it was released, I can only say that it has nothing to do with the film itself.

On Saturday, a similar report appeared in many media outlets, pointing the finger at The Dark Knight Rises.

This is the answer given by a police officer in Los Angeles, USA, when he answered the reporter's question 'Do you think the suspect in the shooting incident was affected by the movie?' Similar questions were given as early as Duke Rosenberg's Batman series film #1. When the second The Dark Knight was released, some reporters asked about it. At that time, some film critics worried that the image of the clown played by Heath Ledger in the movie was too real and caused young people to imitate it.

At that time, Duke Rosenberg's answer was 'young people have their own judgment'. This sentence became the core of some media's severe criticism of Duke Rosenberg. Duke? Rosenberg and Warner Bros.'s grandiose, massive and dense publicity campaign for The Dark Knight Rises is considered by experts and the police to be an indirect inducement to commit a crime.

The way The Dark Knight Rises is promoted is completely brainwashed and viral. It constantly plays up the self-confidence, evil and darkness of the villains in Duke Rosenberg's films. Even Batman himself has transformed from hero to hero. 'A loyal villain struggling in the quagmire of crime in Gotham City'... I believe that most movie fans go to the movie to see how the villain can turn reality upside down. They expect a murderer who can kill Batman, Because Duke Rosenberg made them love neurotics, vengeance, and anarchy.

This also deeply exposes a problem with Duke Rosenberg. His Batman series of movies are different from previous comic book hero movies. It focuses on portraying Batman and Bruce Wayne, but like the Joker or Babe. They are more three-dimensional and have distinct characters than Batman. This creative method plus the promotion of the villain before the movie is released-the Batman movie is in the hands of Duke Rosenberg. Batman is the foil , he spent 250 million US dollars to create a villain who breaks Batman and society's leg bones - so that fans will be instilled with more villain values, which is the scariest Duke Rosenberg movie place, he directly affects and distorts the value orientation of the audience.

In the promotion of The Dark Knight Rises, the film studio used a lot of viral marketing, such as posting the villain's wanted list on the Internet, to increase the attention of the film. This has deepened the dividing line between the film and reality on the other hand. This kind of publicity method caused panic among movie fans as early as 1999 when The Blair Witch was released. The footage is real.

What's even more frightening is that Duke Rosenberg's accolades for his last Batman movie, The Dark Knight, are another factor that could trigger this. As early as the 'Dark Knight Rises shooting incident' Before it happened, fans threatened to 'accidentally kill early viewers who gave bad reviews'. And he himself received death threats.

Some media, based on eyewitness rumors, claimed that James Holmes committed the crime because he 'didn't get a movie ticket for the premiere'. These speculations made people all over the United States panic!

It's time for us to reflect, and this reflection should start with self-exclusion of the values ​​promoted by The Dark Knight Rises!

Remarks like this appeared in batches in major media.

Batman's enemies, in the hands of Tim Burton, are caricature-like crazy characters, and in the hands of Duke Rosenberg, they are turned into three-dimensional and complex terrorists like clowns. They believe in anarchism , before they turned into thugs, they were victims of a cruel material society like Batman, but they took the opposite path from Bruce Wayne.

This path is more in line with the choice of normal people. Falling is far easier than sticking to justice. Take the clown imitated by James Holmes as an example. He doesn't trust anyone, even the subordinates who work for themselves can not hesitate He doesn't need money and power, but he plays with everyone with these two things. He is not afraid of death, not afraid of failure. He only wants to destroy this world that is as cold as himself.

It is precisely such a person and role that lead James Holmes, who is only 25 years old, to a path of no return!

Since the first batch of film workers discovered the commercial entertainment properties of film a hundred years ago, violence has been inseparable from film, and has gradually evolved into a An exciting art.

Looking at Duke Rosenberg's 20-year career as a director, we can see a very obvious rule: no violence, no business. The violent elements in the film satisfy the restless hearts that are dissatisfied with reality. , so that the audience's heroic complex and desire for destruction can be temporarily satisfied in the virtual world of the movie.

At the same time, Duke Rosenberg's films also let the audience get acquainted with crime, learn to commit crimes, and even become obsessed with crime. What we should admit is that films do play an important role in the increasingly rampant social violence. To shirk responsibility, I would like to ask those who have watched The Dark Knight, who of you has not been fascinated by the clown's extreme madness and sophisticated plan? Who dares to say that after watching it, there is no way to want to be in a certain place The urge to set off a bomb and walk out like a clown?

These criticisms and well-intentioned public opinion were basically within the expectations of Duke and Warner Bros., as if they had made an appointment, and Warner's media also continued to publish relevant comments on this incident.

It's impossible to undo the impact of the shooting, but it's possible to form an argument rather than a certain direction of opinion that isn't good for The Dark Knight Rises.

Warner Bros. first moved out a number of criminal psychology experts.

Michael Werner, a criminal psychology expert from the Federal Bureau of Investigation, wrote in the media, Looking at the previous series of mass shootings in the United States, the murderer can basically be identified as a type of person, that is, hating society, suffering from high levels of paranoia, Wanting to make an impact in the form of a kill, James Holmes being typical of that, doesn't have much to do with any film.

Jeffrey Swanson, a professor at Duke University who studies violence and mental illness, believes that it should not be premature to draw conclusions about the motives of the murderer. Although the murderer of a mass shooting is generally a young male, has autistic tendencies, and often imitates certain Movies, but the problem is there are thousands of people who fit the bill and have never done anything like this.

Steve Albrecht, an expert from the American Threat Assessment Professional Association, told reporters, The murderer may be the loser of a series of events, trying to solve the problem through killing. He speculated that the police's efforts to find the motive of the murderer's crime may be futile. More energy is focused on preventing these types of criminal cases beforehand.

Although these people did not directly say that James? Holmes' behavior has nothing to do with the Batman series of movies, but their remarks are undoubtedly beneficial to The Dark Knight Rises.

Probably because this incident is beneficial to the policy of Austrian Heitan, the White House spokesman representing the Washington authorities believes that there is no relationship between the shooting and the film.

The violent scenes of films that can be released on a large scale are very limited. The Batman series is essentially a family movie, and there are still many children watching it.

At the regular press conference of the White House, the spokesperson said, If you say that movies are related to violence, and literary works also have violence, everyone should not make random associations. In fact, the core of this incident is the issue of gun control in the United States.

He also praised, In The Dark Knight Rises, director Duke Rosenberg maintained a very high level, and he raised the grade and standard of superhero films.

In the face of all kinds of voices questioning the Batman series, Duke's navy also dispatched again, haunting various famous movie websites and social networking sites, directly refuting the views of some media.

I would like to ask friends who have watched The Dark Knight, who among you has not been fascinated by the extreme madness and sophisticated planning of the clown? Who can say that after watching it, there is no desire to detonate a bomb somewhere And the urge to waddle out like a clown? But did you do that?

No! Because you are rational, you can tell what is fantasy and what is reality.

But for some people, they have been living a fantasy, or have been forced to live a fantasy. Let's turn our attention to the cold-blooded killer James Holmes, in his neighbors and school teachers In the description of the students, James? Holmes is a quiet, introverted and even withdrawn person. The students describe him as a mysterious character. His name can be found in the friends list of any of the students' social networking sites not.

These all show that James? Holmes has a shocking scar like the clown, but Holmes' scar is not on the mouth, but in the heart. Criminal psychology believes that the occurrence of crimes is related to childhood experiences. There is an inseparable relationship, and the influence of the real world on a person's psychology is the root of criminal behavior!

If it is said that the movie does not affect the real society at all, Duke himself does not believe it, but Warner must promote it like this.

In fact, there is a saying that describes it very well—the audience actually knows the truth. This world is very simple and cruel, and there are no miracles or magic. But if you can trick them, even for a second, you can wow them, and then you see something very special. Don't you really know? That's the look on the audience's face. (to be continued ~^~)
