Chapter 64: Spoilers

I think the biggest difference between internet broadcasts and regular TV broadcasts is the broadcaster’s ‘familiarity’.

The difference between the internet and TV.

People sometimes look up to people on TV.

It’s a natural idea, as they appear on broadcasts by auditioning or showing off their talents.

People sometimes express that those who appear on TV broadcasts have succeeded, thinking that only the chosen ones can appear on TV.

But unlike that, anyone can use the internet.

Therefore, the other person using the internet is also recognized as a person not much different from myself.

It’s like the feeling of talking and playing games with a friend on the internet.

They recognize the broadcaster with an atmosphere like a close brother they usually know.

That’s why I think more and more people are turning to internet broadcasts.

In an increasingly difficult life, we seek humor and laughter.

Recalling the days when we laughed and cried with friends in our childhood.

However, due to various regulations and social discomfort, TV broadcasts are increasingly playing it safe, and the fun can no longer be found.

So they look for internet broadcasts that show raw people as they are.

The reason why childhood was fun is not because of the regular school life.

It’s the moments of deviation, like talking, swearing, and fighting with friends without hesitation, that are fun.

It is a natural consequence that the generation is shifting from regulated TV broadcasts to internet broadcasts.

However, among the media entertainment business, there was an industry that was relatively less affected by regulations and social discomfort.

Regulations can be set by viewing ratings, and social discomfort is called art.

Movies.

From simple comedies to documentaries, they create their own works regardless of genre.

Even in a busy modern society, many people take the time to visit the cinema, and this popularity was also due to a series that was at its peak at the time.

And today, I went to the cinema with Lee, who was a passionate fan of the series.

About 2 hours and 30 minutes of running time later, we came out.

People pouring out.

Among them, female students who looked like middle and high school students were hiding their tears with tissues.

“Spiderman is so sad….”

“Sniff, Tom Holland’s acting is so good.”

“No, how can it end like this. Sob!”

I already knew the content, so it wasn’t a very shocking ending.

But it was the first time I saw this movie in a movie theater, so I could enjoy the grandeur and urgency together.

Still, to be this sad that Spiderman turned to dust….

“Sob, sniff! Sob! Sniff….”

“Are you crying, old man…?”

“I, I’m not crying…. Sob!”

“Everyone will be revived in the next movie anyway. They brought the Spiderman copyright at great cost, so there’s no way they’ll just get rid of it like this….”

“Sob…. That’s true…. You must have blue blood.”

Lee, who was crying and using a bunch of tissues, said so.

What would happen if Iron Man died later?

Would he try to dismiss it as a joke, saying it’s impossible?

‘Come to think of it, there was a rumor on the internet that a movie was re-shot because someone predicted the content of a movie and wrote about it.’

If I write the exact contents of <Endgame> and spread it on the internet, will the content change due to the movie being re-shot?

I thought about it for a moment, but shook my head.

There’s no need to ruin a well-made movie.

It’s said that <Endgame> was the peak of Marvel.

Anyway, the reason I skipped school on Wednesday and watched a morning movie is not only because of Lee, who is a passionate fan.

Of course, due to Lee’s intense appeal that he didn’t want to be spoiled, I saw it at the earliest time, but I was planning to see a movie in a movie theater anyway.

I started watching movies properly around high school.

The film industry was active in OTT services, not movie theaters.

Increasingly expensive movie prices and deteriorating service.

But for less than 20,000 won, you can watch unlimited movies for a month, so people gradually neglected movie theaters.

That’s why I haven’t been to movie theaters much either.

At most, to see the theatrical version of a famous animation.

Even then, there weren’t many people watching, so the movie theaters I knew always had seats available.

‘As expected, it’s the most active time for movie theaters, so there are a lot of people even though it’s a weekday morning. It’s nice to see it in a movie theater.’

Of course, it’s natural for crowds to gather because it’s the finale of the most popular series in the world, but thanks to that, I was able to fully experience the sense of the movie theater.

Huge screen, magnificent music, people’s unconscious reactions, the sound of eating food.

Everything was new to me, so I received a different sensation.

Lee, who still had bloodshot eyes, sniffled and said.

“How is it, did you feel something?”

“Yes. I know the atmosphere. It was definitely helpful.”

Another reason why I came to the cinema.

“Then, let’s go to the old man now.”

The production of the old man’s movie finally started.

There is a saying that dramas are writers’ games, and movies are directors’ games.

A sentence used to mean that the work is influenced by one person’s capabilities.

Conversely, it means that the writer has the greatest influence on the drama, and the director has the greatest influence on the movie.

Therefore, people often search for writers and directors when watching dramas or movies.

People who are tired of melodramas that are forcibly inserted into ridiculous developments, such as the main character suddenly getting cancer or amnesia, look for writers and directors with ‘certified skills’.

Kang Minseok, an actor and director, has already proven his skills by producing several million-dollar movies in the position of director.

If such a director says he will make a new movie, many people will come forward.

But this time, as it is the first genre he is challenging, he recruited talented actors and held a private audition.

That’s why I went to the old man’s personal studio.

Because I’m an assistant director of the movie, it was the old man’s request to participate in the audition screening together.

“Ah, Bom.”

“Sua? Why are you here?”

“I came because of the audition.”

The first person I found when I arrived at the studio was none other than Bom.

She was holding a script she received in advance and reading it.

“…Are you also judging the audition?”

“That’s right? Because I’m an assistant director. I didn’t want to, but the old man asked me to. I can’t help it.”

“If it’s the director’s request…. But you know you can’t give me more points because you’re close to me, right?”

“Of course. I’ll be more strict, so be nervous.”

He probably made me participate in the audition judging to teach me how to make a movie from the beginning.

So my evaluation wouldn’t be a very important score.

He might not even refer to it at all.

“But did you watch movies too? You always watched internet broadcasts.”

“I quite like movies. I mainly watched them on Netflix or Disney Plus, though.”

“Disney Plus?”

“Ah…. D…isney movies. I misspoke.”

There was no Disney Plus at this time, right.

“You like cartoons? You’re still a kid~ Well, Frozen was fun even for me.”

“…You’re a kid too.”

“What?”

“Nothing.”

I avoid Bom’s glaring gaze.

“Right, since it’s Disney, a Marvel movie was released this time, right? I heard that all the superheroes are gathered in this movie, how did it turn out?”

“Avengers? I saw it.”

“You already saw it? Ah, ah! Don’t spoil it!”

“I’m not that rude. It was just fun. The action was also spectacular.”

She covered her ears and shook her head as if desperately trying not to listen.

I know that spoilers are dangerous enough to cause fights and even wars for people who like stories.

There have been murder cases because of spoilers.

“Anyway, Bom, you’re going to play the role of the main character’s daughter in the movie, right? But in my memory, I think she was a very young daughter….”

“Even seniors over 30 play high school students, so there’s no reason why I can’t. Rather, it’s a role that I can only play now, isn’t it?”

“Well, that’s true.”

She has a mature atmosphere at first glance, but when she jokes around, she has an expression that suits her age.

If that is supplemented with acting and directing, it will be possible to make her look even younger.

“Well, that’s true. I think it’ll suit you because you’re cute.”

“What.”

“But where are the other people besides Bom? It’s not just Bom auditioning, is it?”

“…Ahem. I just came a little early. The audition starts in a while. They’ll probably be here soon.”

“Hmm, is that so.”

Then I might be able to see quite famous people today.

But is the old man really planning to let me sit next to him and judge?

If I’m at the audition judging, I think it’ll be a hindrance.

“I almost peed. I drank too much beverage while watching the movie.”

“You let out so much tears and snot, is there anything more to come out?”

“Shut up, you.”

Thump, she hits my head.

As we were having a playful conversation, Bom creaked and looked at me.

“Sua….”

“Yes?”

“You watched the movie with PD, right…?”

“That’s right?”

“Then there’s a scene in this movie where tears come out….”

“Ah.”

Oops.
