2018-04-26 双语君 中国日报双语新闻


《复仇者联盟3:无限战争》将于4月27日全球上映。


全世界漫威迷都已经热血沸腾,就等第一时间杀进电影院了。



国外一个漫威铁杆粉激动地邀请女友前往观看,然后洋洋洒洒写了六大附加条款,要求女友严格遵守,以保证观影质量。



这位耿直男生和女友的聊天记录被发布在推特上,被网友疯狂转发9万多次……


我们来感受一下来自电影迷的狂热。


— 4月27日星期五晚8点,《复仇者联盟3:无限战争》,你跟我一起去看吗?我订了两张票。


— 好呀,宝宝。


邀请完毕,这位男同学发扬的骑士风度(chivalry)到此为止,接下来的一波操作令人窒息……




Okay, here's the ground rules:

好,以下为观影基本准则:


❶ I'll buy you whatever you want before the movie. Candy, popcorn, drinks, even a hotdog. But you can't ask for anything during the movie.

电影开场前,你想要什么,我都给买,糖果、爆米花、饮料,甚至热狗都行。但电影放映期间,不许吵着让我给买东西。


❷ No talking during the movie, I can't be distracted. You got questions? Write them down, I'll answer when it's over.

电影放映期间不许说话,这会分散我的注意力。如有问题,写下来,电影结束后我会一并回答。


❸ No hand holding, it'll distract me and I'll miss things I've waited 10 years to see. Save your cooties until post post credits scene(s). Kissing also applies.

不许牵手,我会分心。我漫长等待10年想看的东西,不容错过一点内容。待所有彩蛋放完之后再来粘我。亲吻同样适用于此条款。


❹ If a main character dies, we cry together. If you ain't crying, you walking home. I need you invested in this.

如果有主角领便当,和我一起哭。如果你不哭,就自己走回家。我要你投入感情地观看。


❺ If you cancel the movie date, I'll need 24 hours notice so that I may replace you with a suitable viewer, most likely Jesse. If you cancel last minute and I have to watch alone, you'll be hearing from my lawyer.

如果你想取消此次观影约会,请提前24小时告知,以便我寻找替代者,很有可能是好基友杰西。如果你最后一刻才取消约会,导致我不得不独自观影,你会收到我的律师函。


❻ If a crazy white guy wants to come up in there trying to ruin the movie by shooting at people, I need you to take him down quickly and keep him under control. Wait until after the movie to call the police, I don't need the commotion interrupting the movie.

如有疯癫的白种人跑进来,企图用枪击来破坏电影放映,我要求你迅速将他制服,并将其控制住,待电影放映完毕再报警。我不希望发生骚动,打扰我看电影。


Following all rules will warrant a trip to your favorite ice cream place after the movie. 

遵守以上所有准则,电影结束后你将获得前往你最爱的冰淇淋店的奖励。


看过这位朋友给女朋友列的这6个条件,可以说他是毫无求生欲望了……



不过,大多数外国网友热烈赞同这位男影迷:


百分百可以接受的准则。我未婚夫和我也超级期待《无限战争》,谁要在电影院里说话,我肯定会胖揍他一顿,别怪我没提醒你们。


这就是我给我男票定的规矩了啊哈哈哈。我比他更喜欢这部电影,但只有他同意遵守这些规定,我才带他去看IMAX ^^


这些要求完全可以理解,这就是为什么我总是一个人去看电影。这样我就不用去关心另外一个人是不是看得舒服、开心、满意、愉快……


所有电影放映时都应该遵守这些规定。


也有一些人觉得这个男友太戏精,且有点渣(being a douchebag)。


他就应该一个人去。成熟点吧!漫画就是小男孩才看的东西。


她真的跟这个白痴去看电影了吗?她应该立刻甩了这个混球。他根本就不知道怎么和女生相处。他该找他的超级英雄谈恋爱去。


太像我前夫了,只是多些幽默感而已!不管怎样……我还是受不了这种人,我知道这大概是个玩笑,但他如果这样做,我是不会跟他在一起的。


你对此有何想法?


无论如何,有一点大家都是同意的,那就是电影院里的各种不文明行为,对于专心看电影的人来说,实在难以忍受。



影院礼仪(cinema etiquette)很重要,以下这些事情在电影院里不要做,否则会被嫌弃……


Use your smartphone

玩手机



In dark theaters, using a smartphone is like switching on a flashlight. It's disruptive and rude to everyone seated next to or behind you. Just don't do it.

在黑暗的影院里,打开手机,就像突然亮起一个手电筒一样。对于坐在你身边和身后的人来说,这种行为会打扰到他们,非常粗鲁。所以别看手机。


也许你看得太激动想第一时间找朋友倾诉;也许你日理万机,一单500万的生意等不了2小时;也许你太关心朋友的近况,必须时刻刷新朋友圈才能安心……可是在你掏出手机时,身边本来在专心看电影的人会被瞬间晃瞎眼。


Eat

吃东西



No one wants to hear you crunch, chew or masticate in any way. Steamed buns, or baozi, are especially offensive and despised by others.

没有人想听见你嘎嘣嘎嘣嚼东西或奋力咀嚼的声音。肉包子尤其罪恶,最遭人嫌弃。


Slurp drinks

大声嘬饮料



When you get to the ice at the bottom of that extra-large Coke, stop. You are not 6 years old.

你那一大杯可乐喝到最后一点冰渣的时候,就适时停嘴吧。你已经不是6岁少年儿童了。


Hunt for things in your bag

在袋子里翻个不停



Rustling of super high density rustle-o-matic extra rustle bags should be banned. If you're going to need something during the film, get it out beforehand.

翻弄会发出超级高密度沙沙声的袋子的行为必要被禁止。如果你在电影期间要用到什么东西,最好提前把它拿出来。


塑料袋发出的声音最可怕……


Bring small children to movies for adults

带小朋友去看成年人的电影



No irresponsible parenting. You are using the cinema as a babysitter. Your child's moaning, whining and crying is your fault and a profound interruption for everyone else.

不要有这种不负责任的带娃行为。这是把电影院当托儿所了吗?你的娃哭哭闹闹的会打扰到其他人,而这完全是你的错。


Kick the seats in front of you

踢前排座位



There's more than enough space in the gap between the seats for your limbs, coats and bags.

两排座位间的空间完全足够你放腿、放大衣、放包了吧。


Take photos during a screening

摄屏



It's not just rude to take photos with your smartphone during a screening, but also against the law.

电影放映时掏出手机拍摄屏幕,不单单是招人嫌的问题了,这种行为是违法的。


The movie - all the images and sounds that constitute it - are considered property. Taking a photo of an image on a movie screen is in essence stealing that image and thus illegal.

电影,包括组成其的所有画面和声音,都是知识产权,摄屏就相当于偷窃画面,所以是违法的。



所以喜欢摄屏发朋友圈秀自己电影品味的同学注意了,这是侵权行为。


Take someone else's seat

乱坐别人的位子



There's nothing worse than arriving to a screening to find someone has spilled popcorn all over your seat - and is refusing to budge.

到了电影院,发现有人已经坐在你的座位上,爆米花吃得满地都是,他还不肯挪位子,还有比这更糟糕的事吗……


Arrive late

迟到



Showing up on time for anything is just common courtesy to everyone around you—and the movie theater is no different. Time management issues? Check out some tips for staying on schedule. 

准时到场是基本的礼貌,看电影也不例外。如果你在时间管理上有困难,去找找那些如何守时的小贴士学习下吧。


在电影《安妮·霍尔》中,男主就对看电影守时有执念,晚了3分钟就不看了,他说:


"You're supposed to watch movies from the very start to the very end."

看电影应该从最开头一直看到最结尾。


"If you turn up late, tough. Go and watch something else."

如果你来晚了,对不起,换别的电影看吧。



而且,当你已经投入剧情时,几个移动的黑影档在屏幕前,甚至打开雪亮的电筒找座位……没有比这更令人抓狂的事了。


Keep talking

说个不停



You've come here to watch, not to discuss. No one in the cinema has paid 50 yuan to hear your director's commentary on the film. Sit down and shut up.

你来电影院是看电影的,不是来参加讨论的。没有人想花50块钱来听你的“导演评论音轨”。所以老实坐下,闭上嘴吧。


Remove your shoes

脱鞋子



Keep your shoes on. Ditto for all other items of clothing, except your coat. You are not in your own living room. A cinema is a public space, so keep your bodily odors to yourself.

别脱鞋子,除了大衣以外,其他衣物同理。这不是你家门厅,电影院是公共场合,别用你的脚去熏别人啊。


你在看电影时最不能接受哪种行为?欢迎来吐槽。
