The original version of Team America 1, as many people have commented, is good-looking, but the content is slightly shallow.

Why are the evaluation of the next two parts higher? It's very simple, because the latter two parts are good-looking, but also have a more profound connotation, describing the inner changes and mental journey of the American team.

In fact, American Team 1 also has this part, for example, the American team was thin and bullied at the beginning, how did they make up their minds to participate in the experiment, how did they start to dislike that kind of advertising routine, and how did they change in love in the end...... The original director Joe Johnston was not a nameless person, he was the visual effects art director of the "Star Wars" series of films when he first entered the industry, and won the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects in 1981 for "Raiders of the Lost Ark" The film also made him the first director in film history to create a box office result of more than $100 million for his first film. His other works include "Rocket Expert", "Jumanji's Game", "October Sky", "Jurassic Park 3", "Desert Heroes", and "Werewolf".

It stands to reason that he has a lot of experience.

But sometimes it's like this, the same ingredients, the same process, given to different chefs, the taste of the dish is different.

The same is true for movies, and sometimes even a difference in one frame can change the overall style of the whole movie. There is no doubt that the Russo brothers are better at storytelling and at grasping the inner changes of their characters.

As for the movie itself, there is nothing to say, the beginning of the American team series, the signal mark of the Avengers' assembly, although it is only physically stronger than the average person, but it can be used as the soul core to dominate the entire Avengers, and it is said that the poor rely on mutation, the rich rely on technology, and the American team relies on the heart that upholds justice and fights evil. Zhou Fangyuan looked at the few people who were happily discussing on the other side, the expression on his face was slightly weird, but fortunately, the three people on the other side did not notice his change.

His eyes were mainly focused on Chris's body, looking back and forth several times. But don't get me wrong, he doesn't have any other emotional factors for Chris, the reason why he watched each other several times is only because Chris Evans announced that after filming "Avengers 3" and refilming "Avengers 4", he will no longer play "Captain America", and the superheroes of the Marvel Universe will usher in another goodbye.

It wasn't quite the same as the excitement and eagerness he was right now.

The last time I remember, it was "Wolverine" Hugh Jackman, and like Chris, they were both tired and tired of playing superheroes.

But no matter who leaves, superheroes and sci-fi movies will continue on the big screen, and new superheroes will continue to soar at the box office amid mixed word-of-mouth. Some of the heroes in the movies are short-lived, while others are sentimental. That's why we're sorry for the departure of Wolverine and Captain America. Their actor not only played this role, making many people think that he was that person, but also carrying the youth of countless fans. It seems that saying goodbye to them is saying goodbye to your youth. And after "Avengers 3" and "Avengers 4", who can say that there will not be the next one to leave?

In addition to the Marvel Universe, in the DC Universe, there is a superhero who has also experienced many changes and departures.

That's Batman.

Speaking of him, the first thing that many people will think of is Christian Bale, the man who made "the best Batman on the big screen" with director Nolan. The two of them teamed up for three Batman movie works: "Batman: The Mystery of the Shadow", "Batman: The Dark Knight", and "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises", which have become the most classic Batman movies in the hearts of countless fans, and have been rated high on a certain petal so far. Among them, the second "Batman: The Dark Knight" has a score of 9 points, which is quite rare as a commercial film and has not been surpassed so far. As a result, Bale has become a world-renowned top actor in the lineup.

In these Batman movies, even the villains and supporting characters shine. Heath Ledger, who played the clown to the point of being amazing, couldn't withdraw from the role and finally regretted his death, Tom Hardy, who wore a mask and was full of drama, and Gary Oldman, who finally won the Oscar in 18.

But after that, the Batman movie has nothing to do with Nolan and Bale, and in 2016's "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice", the director was changed to Zack Snyder, and Batman was also replaced by Ben Affleck, and the Batman movie has changed faces.

Therefore, it has become a luxury to see Director Nolan and Batman played by Bale on the big screen again.

Nolan's Batman has become a classic and worth recalling, and the possibility of Bale repeating Batman is almost zero. However, unlike Hugh Jackman and Chris Evans who took the initiative to say goodbye to Wolverine and Captain America, Bale, who starred in the Nolan Dark Knight trilogy, said goodbye to Batman a little "ambiguous". At that time, the outside world and fans had different evaluations and speculations about this, and the two main statements were: first, Nolan's Batman series has ended, and DC wants to create a new Batman cosmology, so the director and the starring role have changed together, and second, Bale is tired of playing Batman, Nolan is no longer directing, and he doesn't want to act anymore.

There are both self-boredom and abandonment, which can also be seen from Bell's answer in an interview in 2013. Bale said at the time: "We've made three prequels, and that's enough. Nolan's original plan was to make one, but then we sat down, looked at each other, and reached some kind of tacit understanding, so we made three movies in a row. As for not continuing to act, his response that year was: "I know that a new movie is in preparation, but I still don't know anything about the Batman role, and I haven't contacted the producer." I think it's time for the torch of Batman to be passed on to the next actor. ”

A year later, when Ben Affleck officially took over the role of Batman in "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice", Bale's heart still rippled.

He openly told the media that he was stunned when he learned that the new actor in Batman was Ben Affleck.

"At first, I thought it was the right choice to stop playing Batman, but there was always a voice in my heart that said, 'Go ahead, make another one.'" So when I learned that there was another person who was going to play Batman, I was still stunned and didn't come back to my senses for half an hour. ”

But after all, we still have to face reality, Bale said frankly, "I'm 40 years old, and I should be relieved to be jealous of another person playing Batman." ”

Later, Big Ben's Batman was scolded, and Bell also sent an email to Big Ben, sharing the lessons he learned from starring in Batman back then to help him avoid detours. Whether Bell admits it or not, in his heart, Batman is an indelible trace.

Still, when the superheroes decide they want to leave, they go pretty simply.

Hugh Jackman said goodbye to "Wolverine" because he had been playing the role for 17 years, "I never thought it would be this long. The best way to do that is to leave. And in a documentary, he also revealed that the real reason for his withdrawal was for this role, and he had to keep himself full of muscles for more than ten years, not only to quit all kinds of sweets and greasy foods, but also to go to the gym every day, and "I don't know how much protein I can eat."

When Chris Evans officially announced that he didn't want to play "Captain America" again, he said something quite meaningful, "Before they push you off, I'll get out of the car myself." For newcomers, being able to be picked out by "one out of 10,000" and get the opportunity to play a superhero is already a win. But for a superstar who has already achieved fame, he must keep his face, maintain his figure, and devote most of his current time to a role, constantly repeating himself, which has become no longer more valuable. And it is said that Chris himself resisted before taking over the role of "Captain America", and he was not interested in this in the first place. At the same time, he also knows that he can't rely on this role to grow old, after all, even Spider-Man has changed to the point where he doesn't know how many generations of actors he has.

Here is a brief explanation, why did he resist letting him play the American team in the original time and space, but not this time? It's very simple, because at that time he was more famous than now, and the benefits brought to him by the Fantastic Four were not as high as he imagined, and he would do all kinds of embarrassing actions during filming, and it was natural that he was reluctant to shoot at first. In this life, he is not very famous, at this time, he can't be said to be pure transparency in the circle, but he is also a small transparent, such a good opportunity to continue to increase his exposure, of course he is not willing to miss it.

In addition, in the original time and space, Robert Downey Jr., the actor of Iron Man, also expressed the idea of "quitting his job".

"Everyone thinks Iron Man is a great fit for me, but I just want to retire before things get awkward. "In those cool comic movies, under the skin of every superhero, there is a struggling soul. And those actors who play them are probably no exception.

So, who will be the next superhero to leave?

No one knows, and it's clear that fans want to see their idols all the time, but unfortunately, things don't always change with people's expectations.

......

After sitting in the café for half a morning, everyone briefly discussed the content of the script, and Zhou Fangyuan was sure that the Russo brothers were what they wanted, so he immediately sent a message back to the company to inform them of the next move.

It's very simple, it is to sign a contract with Chris and the Russo brothers, anyway, Zhou Fangyuan is optimistic.

As for the other actors.

Zhou Fangyuan did not intervene and left the opportunity to others.

Including the heroine, too, the original heroine was Hayley Atwell, a woman who looks quite beautiful.

UNFORTUNATELY, HAYLEY, BORN IN '82, GAVE UP THE OPPORTUNITY TO STUDY PHILOSOPHY AT OXFORD AT THE AGE OF 17 IN FAVOR OF LONDON'S MUNICIPAL MUSIC AND DRAMA SCHOOL, AND TOOK ON THE PRINGLES POTATO CHIPS COMMERCIAL FOR TUITION FEES AS HER FIRST FULL-FLEDGED ACTING JOB.

It wasn't until shortly after graduating in 2006 that she made her breakthrough with the Booker Prize-winning adaptation of the gay TV series "Beautiful Curves," which was discovered by director Saul Dibb, who later brought Attwell to play with Keira Knightley in The Duchess. In addition, Hayley Atwell also starred with Billie Pepe in two classic BBC television film adaptations, Ruby in the Mist and Mansfield Manor. But at this time, he was still in school, and now the movies shot by Zhou Fangyuan's company are not small actions, and partners or investors from all walks of life will also find ways to stuff people into it, so Zhou Fangyuan just won the ownership of the actor and director, and the rest is left to other partners to figure out how to do it.

After finalizing the movie, Zhou Fangyuan left New York and turned around and came to Los Angeles.

When he came here this time, his main task was to hold a banquet according to the company's arrangement, invite celebrities in the circle, and deepen their mutual recognition. Of course, Zhou Fangyuan is a person in the circle, he used to be a director, and now he is an investor, and he is a figure at the top of the pyramid in the circle. But his connections are too shallow, so Cameron hopes that he can expand his network, so this trip to Los Angeles was born.

City of Angels, it's the first time Zhou Fangyuan has come.

He didn't have much time to enjoy the scenery, though, because he had more important things to do.

After getting off the plane, Zhou Fangyuan didn't say a word, just got into the car prepared by the company, and drove towards Beverly Hills. Beverly is known as "the world's most exclusive residential area" and is known as a symbol of wealth, fame and fortune. Nestled on the refreshing Pacific coast and at the foot of Beverly Hills.

Beverly Hills is a dream destination for the world's richest people, the most famous city within a city in Los Angeles, home to the world's most exclusive shopping streets, Hollywood movie stars' mansions, and the mecca of the world's cinema scene. Every year, Beverly Hills attracts visitors from all over the world to explore the streets with curiosity. Home to some of the world's most fashionable brands, each store is resplendent with its intricately carved marble and brass gates, and its arched fountains make the street even more imposing, making it one of the world's most expensive shopping malls.

Because Beverly Hills has gathered so many people and aura, superstars from all over the world have bought properties here, including Hollywood movie stars, music stars, NBA basketball stars, famous artists from the Chinese world, and chaebols from all over the world. Superstars and tycoons flock to Beverly Hills to show off their wealth and status, expand their popularity, and more wealth rolls into their wallets, forming a spiral of wealth that rolls up and shines brighter and brighter for the owners here.

Zhou Fangyuan is not a celebrity, but he is rich, so this time, he is ready to buy a house here.
