After greeting Tom Cruise and other celebrities, Kazir found a suitable seat and waited for the movie to start.
(This movie, the hangover, tells the story of four good brothers: Phil, Stu, Alan, and Doug. To celebrate Doug's upcoming marriage, they formed a group to go to Las Vegas for a bachelor party. This trip to Las Vegas was full of unexpected situations, and the things that happened were enough for them to remember for a lifetime.)
(As the movie began, the camera focused on Doug and Alan changing clothes...) When Alan's (played by Jack Black) white underwear was unexpectedly revealed, the audience instantly burst into laughter.
Doug's (Pedro Pascal) acting was also superb, portraying the character's state perfectly.
(After the four buddies arrived in Las Vegas, they went completely wild on the first night.)
The audience was full of curiosity, eager to know what exactly happened, as after the four drank, the next shot was the next day, and the hotel suite was a mess, as if it had been ransacked.
At this moment, the audience's funny bone was completely tickled.
It's worth noting that the hangover is already one of the most successful comedies in history, and such a wonderful opening undoubtedly made everyone look forward to the subsequent plot even more.
(The three slowly woke up in the suite, suffering from the splitting headache brought on by the hangover.)
"What do you think happened last night?" one of them asked with a frown.
"Maybe it has something to do with the woman who walked out of the suite," another person guessed.
Although not many people in the cinema were talking, everyone was completely engrossed, their eyes fixed on the screen, afraid of missing any detail.
(The three soon discovered that they couldn't remember anything that happened last night, and the suite was in a complete mess.)
(Even worse, Doug was missing, and they racked their brains but couldn't remember where Doug had gone.)
At this point, the audience was as anxious as ants on a hot pan, eager to know Doug's whereabouts, and at the same time, full of curiosity about the tiger that suddenly appeared in the movie.
Even the well-traveled Tom Cruise couldn't help but laugh out loud at Jack Black's panicked reaction when he first saw the tiger.
"This movie is really interesting. It's not the same style as napoleon dynamite, but it's just as funny," a viewer whispered.
"It seems Director Gray really has a talent for making comedies, even though he usually looks so serious," another audience member echoed.
(To figure out what happened last night, they started trying to piece together clues, and found that the clues were more bizarre than the last, and the situations they encountered were even more hilarious.)
(A tiger inexplicably appeared in the suite, a baby was hidden in the closet, and even more unexpectedly, Stu also discovered that he had married an escort named Jade.)
(To find the missing Doug and return successfully before the wedding, the three followed the clues left from last night, encountering various eccentric characters along the way and causing many hilarious jokes.)
(They went non-stop to the church, hospital, and police station, just to figure out what they had done last night and where Doug was.)
(During their search, they also encountered a gangster named Mr. Chow, who aggressively claimed they had stolen his treasure.)
When they saw a bare-buttocked Korean guy suddenly pop out of the trunk, and that guy unleashed a fierce taekwondo attack on the three, the audience burst into laughter, and the cinema was filled with joyful sounds.
(Finally, through photos and videos, they finally pieced together the truth of last night—it turned out that they had gotten dead drunk, not only gambled, but also provoked some difficult people.)
"Holy cow! Mike Tyson actually made a cameo—oh my god! He knocked Jack Black out with one punch! Hahaha! Jack just laid on the ground!" an audience member shouted excitedly.
That's right, it turned out that the tiger was actually the pet of the legendary boxer Mike Tyson.
(After all these crazy and eventful experiences, they finally found Doug on the hotel rooftop.)
(Seeing Doug safe and sound, everyone breathed a sigh of relief, and then returned to their normal lives. However, this adventure in Las Vegas strengthened their bond and became a precious memory they would never forget.)
Although they experienced so many absurd and funny things, the wedding was still completed smoothly, putting a perfect end to this crazy journey.
The movie ended, the lights came on, and the audience stood up and applauded, with the applause lasting for a long time.
"It was so funny! Absolutely hilarious! I have to watch it again, and I'll bring my friends!" an excited audience member said.
"You're right! It's just that there's a bit too much swearing in the movie, and it feels a bit regrettable that it's rated R," another audience member said with a hint of regret.
"Yeah, that's the only drawback. I really hope it sells well, so we'll have a chance to see a sequel!" another audience member said with anticipation.
"Haha, I think so too. It would be great if there could be a sequel."
The people around them all agreed.
Kazir and the creators of the hangover walked onto the stage and bowed to thank the audience.
Since it was opening night, reporters were eagerly waiting for interviews, hoping to dig up some valuable news.
To put it simply, because of Kazir's recent affairs, all the focus was on him, and reporters immediately surrounded him, with various questions coming one after another.
"Everyone, don't just focus on me; the actors are the real heroes of this movie. Here, I must thank Ed Helms, Pedro Pascal, Jack Black, Bradley Cooper, and Reese Witherspoon; they all worked hard for this film."
"Of course, the behind-the-scenes staff are equally indispensable, I love you all! And I must especially mention Mike Tyson, the boxer, I wish you all the best in your upcoming matches!"
After speaking, Kazir skillfully shifted the topic to the actors.
Except for Ed Helms, there were no big-name stars in this crew, so reporters shifted their focus to him, asking him about his future plans.
"Of course, if I have the chance, I would especially like to collaborate with Director Gray again on napoleon dynamite 2."
He replied.
Although the premiere of the hangover was successful, the executives at Warner Bros. were still nervous, as the film market is unpredictable, and no one could guarantee its future performance.
After the opening night, Kazir and Salvatore Barlo hurried to the Warner Bros. office to get the movie's box office news as soon as possible.
Just after midnight, the fax machine "whirred" with data.
This was only a preliminary estimate, not the final result, but the error should not be too large.
"7.86 million! Did I read that right?"
Terry Semel's eyes widened in surprise when he saw the data.
"That's right, Mr. President, this number might even go up; the Theater Alliance hasn't included data from other regions yet!" the staff member quickly explained.
..."You mean it could be even higher?"
Terry Semel could hardly believe his ears.
Everyone was stunned—could it be that Kazir's scandal unexpectedly boosted the box office?
"Good! Haha! Excellent!"
Terry Semel beamed, his face overflowing with joy.
