Time passed, and the nineteenth movie of the Marvel Universe was officially finalized and began to be promoted.

This is the second film directed by Wang Zi'an after a lapse of nine years.

The first was "Iron Man 1" nine years ago.

Now this second installment is called "Avengers 3: Infinity War".

Avengers 3 contains 2680 special effects shots, and only 4 shots in the entire film do not have special effects.

The entire special effects team of the film involves thousands of people.

There are 9 important characters in the film with full special effects, including Rocket Raccoon, Groot and Thanos have more than 600 special effects shots.

Almost all of the Thanos shots in the film were created by domestic special effects companies.

The animation of Iron Man and Spider-Man's battle with Thanos on Titan cannot be captured with motion capture, because it lacks the sense of speed, weight and blow of the superhero, so it is done with traditional hand-key animation.

The film opens with Iron Man and Pepper running in Central Park and is filmed in a park in Atlanta, with special effects used to set the background for Central Park.

"The trailer is super burning. ”

"After nearly a decade of foreshadowing, the Marvel Cinematic Universe has ushered in a real climax. ”

"But it's terrible, it's unsettling. ”

"Looking at the embarrassment of the heroes in the trailer, what happened?"

"Who remembers that nine years ago, King Pingyang said that if there are three at most, the box office of the movie he directed will break the record of being the first in the world?"

"Haha, this is the second part, it's not good yet, the third part is enough to choke. ”

"Who is so bad, the old accounts from nine years ago have been turned over. ”

"There is not much time left for King Pingyang, the second part. ”

"The record-breaking box office of 20 billion soft girl coins, the first two Avengers are far from breaking the record. ”

"It's not far, hundreds of millions or billions. ”

"Isn't a few hundred million or a billion not far away? Do you see how many movies have grossed hundreds of millions or billions this year?"

"Uh, is that so?"

At the beginning, everyone was just guessing the plot, and in the end, someone turned out what King Pingyang had said.

And then the topic also heated up.

The publisher is happy to see the excitement, anyway, this popularity can also drive the popularity of Avengers 3.

Wang Zi'an himself was about to forget what he said nine years ago, and when the topic became on the Internet, he asked Pingxiang Liuying: "Did I really say this?"

"Yes. Pingxiang Liuying nodded again and again, hesitated for a moment and said, "You also said that you will marry me if you break the record." ”

Yui Aragaki on the side hurriedly added: "After breaking the record, for every extra 100 million, you will marry one more." ”

Wang Zi'an originally wanted to say that he would not dream of unrealization, but in the end he didn't say it.

He just smiled.

Say that if it makes you happy, say it.

He didn't answer, and Aragaki Yui was a little worried: "Sansan, do you really think you can break the record? That record has been standing for twenty years." ”

Epoch-making films, it is indeed difficult to surpass.

Even though people's living standards have improved a lot compared with 20 years ago, the film and television industry has also prospered a lot compared with 20 years ago.

With prosperity comes more options.

In the past, there were few TV channels, there were few good-looking programs, and the audience did not have many choices.

Later, there were more TV channels, and all kinds of programs sprung up, and people didn't know which ones to watch.

"Don't underestimate the determination and strength of the publisher, and don't underestimate Marvel's foreshadowing and fan management over the years. Twenty years in Hedong, it should be twenty years in Hexi. Wang Zi'an predicts the box office from the perspective of a professional, and he is very confident.

"Avengers 3", as the helmsman of this big drama, he carried out a "great unification" of the entire cinematic universe, except for the absence of Hawkeye, Ant-Man, and Wasp, all superheroes appeared on the stage, and staged a century in the same frame, but only to bring out the strongest villain in Marvel history - Thanos.

For the shaping of the villain, King Pingyang wants to say second, and no one dares to say first.

Although he didn't play Thanos this time, he can support it.

Hiraka Ruzakura and Aragaki Yui have both watched the finished film, and they think it is very powerful, and they still remember the plot vividly.

The story is about the "Civil War Incident", the Iron Man faction and the Captain America faction fought a big fight, and the Avengers existed in name only.

But when the catastrophe is approaching, all the superheroes have to unite again to stop Thanos' unscrupulous "Life Clearance Project".

This movie uses four branches, Thor as a line, Iron Man and others as a line, Guardians of the Galaxy as a line, Captain America and others as a line, and finally converges into two lines, opening up two major battlefields of "ambush warfare" and "guard warfare".

With such a dazzling setting, the whole section may collapse if you don't pay attention to it, but Avengers 3Hold this difficult choreography, the rhythm is smooth, the scenes are grand, redundant but not complicated, complicated but not chaotic, each character has a meaning of existence, even supporting characters such as Rocket Raccoon, Baby Groot, Nebula, and Atrii are useful, not just going through the motions.

Of course, all this is thanks to the bombardment of the previous eighteen big movies, and the audience is already familiar with Iron Man, Captain America, Thor, Hulk, Black Widow, Star-Lord, Doctor Strange, Black Panther and other characters, and they can evoke memories as soon as they appear, so there is no need to spend more pen and ink to portray them.

But the focus of Avengers 3 has shifted to the big boss Thanos.

Not only does he crush any superhero in the scene, but his combat effectiveness is also MAX, he can beat the Hulk with his bare hands alone, and with a flick of his fingers, half of the superheroes will be wiped out, breaking the cycle of "the villain is too weak" in one fell swoop, and he has become the protagonist of the game.

As the saying goes: "Hooligans are not scary, they are afraid that hooligans are educated." ”

If there is only combat effectiveness, Thanos is just a reckless man at best, and more importantly, he has a "lofty ideal" that destroys half of the universe and deep love.

Thanos reluctantly gave up the latter for the sake of the so-called mission, and cried for it, although this emotion came too suddenly like a gust of wind, but it made the villain break through the "flattened" dimensional wall and suddenly become flesh and blood.

This movie does not want to simply portray the villain as a "murderer", but creates a gray area, that is, it finds a thought-provoking motive for the villain: the resources of the universe are limited, and only by eliminating half of the lives can the balance of the universe be maintained!

We have to admit that there is no shortage of precedents for this specious view in human history, and it is this kind of thinking that has been responsible for every ethnic cleansing.

It can be seen from Thanos' repeated mercy to the Avengers that there is no uncommon hatred between the two, but there is just a conflict of values.

Just like what is said in "Captain America 3", Captain America and Iron Man actually do not have the question of who is right and who is wrong, but they have different positions.

Avengers 3 concocted this according to the law, and everyone fought for what they believed in and paid a heavy price.

Thanos sacrificed his adopted daughter, Thor lost Loki, Scarlet Witch killed Vision, and Iron Man lost Spider-Man......

Even, Avengers 3 also broke the iron law of "evil defeats good", revealing a sense of tragedy like ancient Greek mythology, which can be called an epic masterpiece!

Avengers 3 has more than 20 superheroes on the grand debut, except for Iron Man, Captain America, and Thor, the most popular justice triumvirate, if the roles of the three are combined, they can barely be regarded as taking the script of the protagonist.

plus Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, Star-Lord, Scarlet Witch, and Vision, these few people have some scenes, and then the others are basically "tricks", a few lines, and a few minutes of group scenes......

Before seeing the finished film, Hiraka Ruzakura and Aragaki Yui couldn't imagine that the so-called "Avengers 3", which gathered most of the superheroes in the previous work, was actually a super "big male protagonist" of the anti-boss Thanos (a single cut for half an hour, far more than all other characters), and the superheroes on the justice side all became the foil and stepping stone of Thanos's "Annihilation or Salvation Plan".

For those new fans who are watching a Marvel superhero movie for the first time and are not familiar with many of the characters in the previous work, they are afraid that it is equally hard to believe that this is actually a "unconventional work" in which the villain boss not only kills all sides, but also wins all the way to the end of the film, and completely achieves his expected goal step by step, killing half of the intelligent creatures of the universe.

The character of Thanos began to appear in the easter egg at the end of "Avengers 2", and at the same time in "Guardians of the Galaxy Vol. 1 and 2", he flashed for a few minutes as a hidden boss behind the scenes, and through the love-hate entanglement of his two adopted daughters, Gamora and Nebula, this character was initially laid out.

It turns out that he has been planning behind the scenes in the Marvel world, planning many conspiracies, and through various temptations in the previous game, he has determined the whereabouts of all six "Infinity Stones".

"Avengers 3" opened, and the big boss who has been manipulating behind the scenes made his debut, and he blinded people's eyes just by appearing on the show.

As a quasi-deity with an immortal body, Thanos defies ice, burning, lightning, radiation, poisons, aging, and disease, and possesses unparalleled strength, agility, stamina, and recovery, riding on a suspended throne that can travel through the universe in defiance of time and space.

Therefore, when Thanos attacked the Asgardian spaceship in order to seize the space gem, the incomparably shining superheroes in Marvel's previous games, from Thor to Hulk, were all vulnerable in front of Thanos, and Asgard's patron god Heimdall was easily killed.

Loki, the evil god of the big boss of the "Thor" series and "Avengers 1", after handing over the space gem, pretended to surrender and tried to sneak attack, but was also easily killed by Thanos.

Then, as the plot of this film called "Avengers 3", which is actually "Thanos Treasure Hunt" or "Thanos "Salvation", continues to advance, the Thanos Army paid a huge price and sacrifice, defeated one powerful enemy after another, and his loyal subordinates, Obsidian generals (Ebony Throat, Black Dwarf, Death Blade General, and Proxima Centauri in the Night) also died one by one.

Finally, Thanos landed in Wakanda, easily defeated all the superheroes, killed Vision, and collected all six gems.

Thor, who has awakened his divinity, descends from the sky with a divine axe that has consumed all the resources of the dwarf star, and severely damages Thanos with one blow.

At that time, Aragaki Yui and Hiraka Ruzakura showed a knowing smile of "I was expected", but after all, they still fell into the well-known cliché plot: let the righteous side finally defeat the villain Archdemon King after a lot of hardships and some sacrifices.

However, Thanos turned the tables in an instant, destroying more than half of his teammates on the righteous side with a snap of his fingers.

Under Thanos' "Indiscriminate Half Destruction", the Winter Soldier dies in front of Team America and Thor, the Panther dies in front of Okoye, Groot dies in front of Rocket Raccoon, and Scarlet Witch dies in front of Vision's corpse.

Many superheroes on alien planets, Spider-Man died in Iron Man's arms, and Doctor Strange, Mantis Girl, Groot, and Star-Lord turned to ashes one after another.

In addition to Rocket Raccoon, Nebula, and War Machine, there are only a few veterans of the Avengers left: Team America, Thor, Iron Man, Banner (Hulk), and Black Widow.

Half of the life on Earth and even in the universe has been wiped out.
