There were different sorts of thoughts shared during the blue carpet. Although it's late to mention, the blue carpet was Ian's idea.

Different thoughts from different actors and crew members were shared and were already trending on different media platforms.

"Gah! I didn't think I'd be here with every other person who is present today. The most amazing thing is how well it is put together, and I can already feel the energy even though I'm not inside yet. More than anything, I'm looking forward to a revolutionary movie!" was another actor who participated in the movie.

The discussions about the movie and movie-making process which many actors claimed to be a 'step to a new era of movie-making took a lot of people by surprise.

In this world, such developed VFX and CGI graphics were already present. But there was also another major part of the play missing in it; which is the story.

With Ian bringing the story, the celebrities who got to talk about it were honest and excited which was shown through their words and faces.

[...] "30 seconds….. 3… 2…. And 1, go!" The coordinator gave a slight push to the event host to walk in on the stage and address the people who were ready and seated for the occasion.

"Hello everyone! Welcome to a wonderful evening! On this star-flooding occasion, I'd first like to extend a warm hello to each and every one of you present here.

The CEO of Goofy, the director of Avatar, Ian Renner, and including them… I want to specially mention our guest of honor, Mr. R. R. Faraday, father of Jeff Sanson, who specially joined the occasion considering how this movie was bet to be one of the best in the century.

With that being said, I'd like to invite our director, Mr. Ian Renner to share his thoughts before starting the movie which we all are waiting for…!"

The crowd applauded and when Ian went on stage, he was only able to see small lights… Everywhere.

The number of people who were in front of him was making him uncountable. His breaths became heavier while he walked in front of them.

He took a deep breath, "Good evening! I'm truly proud to be in front of each one of you tonight… Avatar movie premiere-" Ian chuckled. "I can't even believe it's finally done." The crowd laughed.

"Even right now, I'm shaking. Not out of fear, but out of happiness. This is a big dream come true, and like everyone, I'm excited to share this experience, today, tonight. Thank you, Mr. Jeff Sanson, for this wonderful collaboration, and the VFX team of Goofy—is truly something to admire.

I don't want to make this a sob speech with me tearing up while thanking everyone who helped this movie come true. So, let's meet right after we watch the movie. Yeah?" Ian asked, making the crowd cheer in excitement.

The movie started shortly afterward.

-

It had been two hours and forty minutes.

Two hours and forty minutes since Ian walked out off the stage.

Two hours and forty minutes since there were more than forty celebrities with their mouths open watching the movie.

For two hours and forty minutes, some critics and guests were visibly absorbed in the movie.

The cameras which kept moving from the left corner to the right corner of the hall caught many of their emotions on the little lens.

Among them, there was a forty-two-year-old man, wearing a gray suit with a cup of wine in his hand who watched the people talk after the movie ended.

He was watching from afar how Ian kept talking to almost every important person who sat in the first few rows, and how Ian's eyes kept smiling at how proud he was of the compliments.

By the end of the movie, this man had a question, a concern, and a major scenario ringing in his head.

No, he was no enemy. Yet, he was someone who had been following Ian's career.

The moment where the reporters came to find the critics finally arrived—and it was a moment which he looked forward to.

"Mr. Din, you have been one of the biggest critics to ever exist, and also a very good script writer. Being invited here and all, what do you think about Avatar?"

Din Brown wanted to comment about how he found the movie as something to already exist in this world.

He found the movie plot as inspiration from an old movie. The movie could be older by 50-60 years from 2019.

"Yes, hello again. Your channel is something I see almost in every movie premiere, collecting thoughts of the viewers, and here I'm, yet again.

Honestly, to start with how Ian had pulled the entire idea is truly, truly, truly beautiful. But I think I have seen this sort of movie, with a similar story before. The title is, 'Dances With Wolves.' The whole theme is hard to neglect for me, but it could also be Ian taking inspiration from the American invasion of Indian Territories back when it was first founded.

Apart from that, I think this is genuinely a beautiful mixture of realism when it meets sci-fi and space exploration.

If talking about the genre itself, I find it quite underrated and almost virginal in its entirety. And according to what I see, no film has yet to breach the rich potential that it possesses. Maybe…. Maybe AVATAR could be the first of many…" Din went on then explain his favorite moments from the movie, and things he found nostalgic while watching it.

On the other end of the massive theater, was Jeff Sanson, facing the media and celebrities, trying to popularize and market the name of Goofy considering how a new experience was showered to every person inside the theater.

With him, there were also many other important people in the industry, listening to everything he was saying, nodding along, and even laughing at his words—which were probably not even funny.

"...And Goofy worked for months on this. Trust me, Lucas and the team had their hopes piled up, and maybe there would be a sequel," Jeff was talking to the other directors.

"Mr. Jeff Sanson, can we have a word? We are from the Mid-Yorkshire Channel, what are your thoughts for tonight? Are the responses as you expected?"

"Of course! Of course, honestly, even better than what I expected. My expectations were broken beyond and above in an extremely positive way! I can't help but say how much of an amazing job Ian has done with the movie… Ian! Hello, mister!" Jeff called out to Ian seeing him walk.

"Ah! Hello there."

"I was just talking about how good the entire movie was. It is truly exceptional. I was looking forward to this kind of glory when I first wanted to agree on the collaboration. Now… This is really outstanding!" Jeff said with an awkward smile plastered on his face.

"Ahaha… Thank you so much, Mr. Sanson. If it wasn't for the VFX team, this project might have taken longer to complete, heck even ten to fifteen years, so your company made things possible." Ian said with a smile.

Both of them had complimented each other while being in front of different cameras, but if someone knew Ian any better, they'd have known how awkward it was for him to compliment a snake with two faces.

Outside the theater, at around 11.15 pm.

"I can't believe Din talked about the movie like that. I mean, that was the best story I collected from the entire event." The reporter wearing a black mask said with his eyebrows raising up and down in stress.

The night had been extremely exhausting for them, considering how carrying around and trying to sound excited in front of the cameras had no break in the job description.

"What do you mean? Man, we can't release that. People might take it off in a negative way!" His assistant said while in shock.

"We are not the ones to decide anyway. I'm pretty sure this clip would be out on the internet in no time. Especially when our content manager sees this… Not like anything was hard on Ian—"

"Don't say that. Ian is really a good man. Did you even notice how he had asked to serve every reporter first? We were dead hungry and you can't do that. I suggest we just delete it." His assistant said in just above a whisper.

Inside the van, it was just the two of them waiting for their driver to arrive. But their thoughts and conversations were about how Din had claimed that the movie could not be an original idea by Ian.

Both the men knew that revealing it to the public means there was a 50-50 possibility of it getting negativity. And the main problem was not even that.

The main problem was that if someone—specifically someone who awaits Ian's downfall -- saw the clip, they'd turn the entire thing into a spark on the internet.

And believe it or not, the majority of the swirls on the internet have a higher probability of leaving black spots in one's career if caught in bad hands.

"Ah fuck! Let's just be honest about our job. Don't think too much, we can only pray that nothing like that happens! I'm dead tired!" The reporter said and lay down on the long seat, with his legs up in the windows of the van.

"Yeah, me too. At least the critic was honest about his thoughts. That should count for something right?"

"Yeah, he is really a nice man."
