Chapter 420: Shameless to Seventy-Five
Although there were new character movies like "Guardians of the Galaxy" and "Ant-Man" last year, what makes this movie special is that it expands the entire Marvel Cinematic Universe.
In the past, whether it was Guardians of the Galaxy or Ant-Man, as new characters, they were finally under a long-established world view, so these works are no different from the rest of the superheroes except for adding some related easter eggs to establish a connection with the overall Marvel Cinematic Universe.
But Doctor Strange is completely different, the appearance of this character shoulders the burden of expanding the frontier of the Marvel Universe, because of his existence, adding cosmic elements to magic, completely opening up different cultural dimensions, especially the Eastern market.
This requires a movie to complete the character establishment and establish a connection with the Marvel Cinematic Universe, while also expanding the overall world view, there are too many things, and it is easy to die if you don't play well.
This is the key reason why the company chose Ding Cheng!
Not only acting skills and dedication, but especially the understanding of Eastern philosophy and the degree of recognition of metaphysics are the biggest factors in determining the success of Doctor Strange.
Even in the beginning, the company's top management did not intend to describe the process of the character's transformation into a superhero, but focused on the description of the worldview, which was only used as a foreshadowing.
At the end of today's scene, Ding Cheng reviewed the plot, and I have to say that this work is a rare special case in hero movies where the content of literary drama is greater than that of martial arts!
The extra literary drama is to expand the world view, dark space, multi-dimensional theory, supreme magic, time paradox......
Most of this content unfolds in the dialogue and experience of the characters, and in his conversations with the Ancient One and Baron Mordo, he expands the concept of the worldview of the film, and the subsequent action scenes are a visual rehearsal of this part of the concept.
is also because of this, the whole plot can be said to be one of the simplest hero movies in recent years, the human character experience has been greatly simplified and accelerated, and his own growth process is like being pressed the speed button.
Especially compared to the slow heat of Venom, it is actually a good thing to do it without saying a word, in my own opinion, in fact, it is a good thing, and now that superhero movies are flying all over the sky, the process of character evolution from two hundred and five to superheroes is basically the same, and greatly simplification can leave enough space to describe the next story.
Another benefit is to carry out the conceited and proud side of the protagonist throughout, so that the character's personality can stand, and in thirty minutes, a rookie hero who is a little arrogant and quick to enter the play can appear in front of the audience.
In fact, Wenju has been giving the audience science popularization, what kind of virtue is the magical world on earth?
Wuju told the audience that it was time for an experimental class!
As for the action scenes, a big battle is divided into two paragraphs, and the role he plays is not like Iron Man and Spider-Man, who first find second-rate small characters to practice their skills.
The art concept is more like the five-dimensional space of "Interstellar", with various mirror worlds, arbitrary doors, chasing scenes that break the spatial structure, and a moonlight treasure box from time to time......
The kaleidoscopic special effects scene is contrary to physical common sense, and the display of the spatial structure, in addition to bringing amazing visual effects, also changes Marvel's sea, land and air battles from a three-dimensional world to a four-dimensional space, which has to be said to be ambitious, but extremely smart.
Just imagine how bluffing it would be if the Avengers fought in such an environment in the future!
Whether the story involves elements or a breakthrough in the way of fighting in the future, this work has made an expansion of depth and breadth, no wonder you have to find yourself to act.
After more than half a month of cooperation, Ding Cheng heard that many people were not optimistic about director Scott before, looking at his previous resume, they were basically vulgar horror films, what "Exorcism Detective", "Sinister", "Raising Ghosts and Eating People 5", "The Day the Earth Stopped", ......
The only thing that is barely strong is the "Exorcism" based on a true story, which is not even a younger brother in front of Wen Ziren.
In my opinion, his storytelling ability is average, he likes to play tricks, and his ability to control the overall situation is very weak, but he is especially good at creating a sense of picture, whether it is lighting or photographic composition, he is at a first-class level!
In one sentence:
There are good sentences without flashes!
Because the plot is very simple, the character design is simple, and the director's storytelling ability is not required, but the visual effects are definitely a plus, which is also his strength.
I can only sigh that Marvel is really discerning in finding directors, and each work teaches students according to their aptitude, specifically looking for the kind of director who is a little distinctive in a certain aspect and easy to control, and gives full play to the greatest advantages.
The screenwriting team is not the master of patting the head and finishing the matter, and even invited a few experts in high-energy physics to discuss the logic of various principles of design.
Almost all science fiction movies have parallel universe elements, and how to play a bad card with new ideas is the key.
The streets and buildings here are unprecedentedly magnificent, and the mirror world is isolated and intertwined with the current material time and space, and multiple worlds are parallel
At present, more and more attention has been paid to quantum mechanics and parallel universe theory in the physics community, coupled with the Schrödinger's cat experiment and double-slit interference experiment, which are very famous before, all of which show more and more that the world is not what we take for granted.
Can you make some niche sci-fi fans have some fun in a Hollywood popcorn movie......
It's also rare!
The deeper you go, the more you feel the power of Hollywood's special effects, of course, the possibility of the movie is only the tip of the iceberg of comics, and comics are the big devils with big brains that are crazy.
Captain America can suddenly Hail Hydra, Thor can suddenly not lift a hammer, and Hulk can turn into a bastard......
The comics here don't have much principle and backbone, only one selling point after another that is unexpected. When many people think that a certain character has been OOC, a certain universe is about to fall, and the Marvel pill is over, then what?
People see that this universe is almost played, so they simply blow it up and restart it, and immediately open up other possibilities, as if a scoundrel, never talk about bullshit and scruples, only crazy attempts.
Dare to play, because if you can afford it, you must also play.
In a fiercely competitive market that likes the new and hates the old, it can't survive two episodes without innovation, and it has been alive for 75 years.
It can be said that there is no clearer and more accurate case than Marvel's future planning, which is just like those college students who clearly plan when to go abroad, when to study for a doctorate, to which company to intern, to work hard for three years, to attack for five years, and to jump......
Step by step,
Go to the top!
