I seriously suspect that sketch actors are beginning to be dissatisfied with their "fields" and are "getting involved" indiscriminately in the entertainment industry. Especially the most popular film and television dramas, which have been almost eaten up by sketch actors recently.
The most obvious one is the current Spring Festival movie. There are nine movies confirmed to be released, excluding classic family-friendly animations such as "The Bear".
The top three "want to watch" movies, "Hot and Spicy", "Flying Life 2" and "Article 20" are all starring sketch actors. The basic pk status is Jia Ling vs Shen Teng vs Ma Li. Isn't this right? Is it "Comedians"?
Moreover, such a dumbfounding market state is entirely determined by market dividends.
Let’s first take a look at the most serious Spring Festival movie in 2023, the suspense movie "Manjianghong" joined by many comedians such as Shen Teng and Yue Yunpeng. Regardless of the reputation, it has indeed received almost 45 Billion box office.
Then there is the most unexpected dark horse movie "Hello, Li Huanying" in 2021. Yes, this movie does have various favorable factors such as "the right time, the right place, the right people", etc., but it has a box office of 5.4 billion+ and has a box office of 5.4 billion+. It cannot be explained by a simple "lucky".
What's more, the promotion momentum of "Tang Detective 3" this year was very strong. At the beginning, Jia Ling's "Hello, Li Huanying" was always suppressed by "Tang Detective 3". The movie finally made a counterattack based on word of mouth. It has become the box office champion, which means that this film has withstood the test of the entire schedule to achieve the above results.
Neither of the above two movies is a pure comedy. Among the characters in "Man Jiang Hong", the character I am most satisfied with is Zhang Da played by Shen Teng. In fact, if we set it from the story and Zhang Yimou's preferences, the character of Zhang Da has a single personality and is difficult to Leave an impression on your audience.
However, Shen Teng’s performance gave the character of Zhang Da a great mark. He added a sense of helpless self-mockery to the role of Zhang Da. This is the blessing of the actor’s own understanding to the character. Yue Yunpeng, who is also in the movie, does not have this kind of feeling. "function".
Jia Ling's credit in "Hello, Li Huanying" lies in her expressing the most touching family relationship in her heart in a way that the audience can understand. She is indeed a new director who lacks experience and shooting methods, but she uses the most sincere To tell a true and touching story with an attitude is her special skill.
In addition to these two "juniors", there were also early films like "The Leaves Return to Their Roots" starring Zhao Benshan and Fan Wei 's "No Problem". They were not pure comedy films, but they both became high-scoring films, showing that they are comedies with attitude. People don't just make jokes to make people laugh, they still have a lot of energy.
After talking about movies and dramas, the most successful suspense TV series "The Long Season" in 2023 is played by "Comedy Master" Fan Wei. Many netizens commented that he contributed to this TV series without any comedy elements. "Great acting skills".
vividly interprets the hesitation and sadness of train driver Wang Xiang under the double blow of losing his son and being laid off, and has become a mountain that comedians want to copy.
Comedians will work harder in 2024, and there will be many dramas with meta themes.
Let’s first take a look at the comedians in the recently released “Go Out!”. This anti-Japanese war comedy features a group of familiar sketch actors, and is nicknamed by netizens as the “annual comedy competition” for team building.
The plot is not messed up so far. The entire script is very basic. If the director's narrative logic and lens language are more sophisticated, it will be a good film.
The leading actor Jiang Long originally had a very good impression of him. He is a young comedian with an ordinary appearance but great acting skills. In "The Dogs Run", he showed a sense of drama and did not act out of character overall.
Although his overall acting skills are still immature, he is still young and can be "polished" by choosing a few good scripts and good roles.
Among the upcoming dramas is the entrepreneurial drama "Riding the Wind and Waves" starring Qiao Shan. The story is relatively old. Peng Jinxi, played by Qiao Shan, was imprisoned for speculation. After being released from prison, he and his girlfriend Luo Hong began to take advantage of the reform and opening up policy to build a family. Xingcheng.
The whole story is rather inspirational. Although I feel that Qiao Shan and Yang Zishan's teaming up is weird, but the poster doesn't seem funny. It's a serious drama.
In addition to young sketch actors, veteran comedians also appeared.
First of all, the TV series "Return to Youth" directed by Yingda and starring Cai Ming, Li Chengru, and Liang Tian. The content tells the retirement story of a group of old guys. The whole drama is humorous, but the content is grounded and it is a very realistic urban story.
Then there is a group of cross talk actors. I don’t know if Deyun Club is in recession and wants to develop new fields, so they all come out to act in TV series.
First, He Bing, Yu Qian, and Zhu Yuanyuan starred in "What a Big Thing", which tells an interesting story that happened in the Kuagu Zhuozi Hutong in old Beijing.
Then came Meng Hetang, Zhou Jiuliang, Zhang Helun, Zhang Jiuling and other juniors, who co-starred in the urban life comedy " Wanchun Dou Xiaoshe ", which tells the story of the early days of Deyun Club, attracting everyone who can be attracted.
It can be seen from these upcoming dramas that both sketch comedians and crosstalk comedians are "restless" and are gearing up to gain their own status in 2024.
