Chapter 388: Hollywood blockbusters don't have the advantage
The so-called ending easter eggs are actually the next episode trailer in disguise.
Well, maybe it's a sequel trailer.
Of course, there is also a lot of foreshadowing in the film.
Behind "Sword Immortal", the gods descended to earth, and Bai Mei of Shushan Sword Sect originally wanted Zhang Yao to go to Kunlun for help. However, he was rejected by Zhang Yao.
There are not many Kunlun disciples, and they still have to sit at the entrance of hell, so they can't pull out at all.
And Zhang Yao also mentioned his junior brother, that is, the "Martial God" played by Mu Ze.
However, at this time, he was not a martial god, and he had not even been a teacher.
When the script was created, on the timeline, it was indeed "Sword Fairy" in the front, and "Martial God" in the back, if it was just because of Mu Ze's box office appeal abroad and the first "Martial God" was filmed, there were many changes to the script.
What's more, Mu Chen doesn't think that "Sword Immortal" is much worse than "Martial God" in this regard.
Li Ruoxi is also very well-known in the world now, not to mention his Mu Chen.
Of course, I'm afraid it's more because I didn't think about it at all.
"Sword Immortal" is biased towards Chinese myths and legends, while "Martial God" has a strong kung fu flavor.
In particular, the name "Martial God" came not from the cultivation world, but from the martial arts world.
In that film, there were many kung fu fighting scenes.
It is also where Mu Ze's role "enlightenment" lies.
He learned a lot of Chinese kung fu, which inspired him, and then integrated it into a defensive skill, turning his defensive magic into both offensive and defensive.
And the "Dragon Descending Divine Palm and Tiger Divine Fist" he performed in "The Avengers" was inspired by this.
This video will not be mentioned for the time being.
Mu Chen even implanted an advertisement for the National Art Alliance in the film.
The heroine's father is the director of a martial arts hall in the National Art Alliance.
Mu Chen's filming of "Sword Immortal" undoubtedly consumed more energy than any film.
Filming this film is actually not much difficult for Mu Chen.
After all, Mu Chen has shot many blockbusters, and he has long been familiar with his abilities.
What he spent the most energy on was undoubtedly the picture effect of the film.
This film does not have the original film as a reference, and the specific effect of shooting will require him as a director to bother.
Although he had already drawn a lot of renderings before the filming of the film and knew what effect he wanted, the actual shooting was still more wasted than before.
"Sword Fairy" started filming in mid-September, but it was not completed until the end of December.
More than three months of filming is undoubtedly a long time.
And the most time-consuming thing about this film is not the shooting, but the post-production of special effects.
At the end of December, "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" will be released, and the publicity is already in full swing.
This blockbuster produced by Dream Pictures will also be released simultaneously around the world.
This has to be thanks to the ability of Dawn Film and Dream Pictures in distribution.
The union of two companies is naturally not as simple as one plus one equals two.
I have to say that Mu Chen's layout in Hollywood has played a great role.
The film is released, and if the box office meets expectations, then the second and third parts will be filmed immediately after.
The script, Mu Chen has been given to Harvey, and even the director Steve has been turned over.
Of course, if the first part is planted at the box office, then the second and third parts will naturally be out of play.
However, Mu Chen is still extremely optimistic about the box office and awards of this film.
"Sword Immortal" was completed, and Mu Chen returned to the company.
Although he basically doesn't care about things, there are still many things that he needs to deal with personally.
"The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" has not yet been released, but the promotion of "Tomb Raider" has gradually begun.
The film will be released during the Spring Festival, and this year's Spring Festival is at the end of January.
The pre-promotion of the film has begun.
"Lao Yu's "Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" hasn't been finished yet?" Mu Chen asked.
Chen Fuhai nodded.
"Havoc in the Heavenly Palace" was launched half a month after "Sword Immortal". However, in the case of normal cases, this shooting cycle is sufficient.
"What about the promotion of "Tomb Raider", he can't participate?" Mu Chen said casually.
"I don't think it's possible in the first half, but the second half of the publicity should be fine. Chen Fuhai said.
In general, the film, the early publicity, is not very strong.
The stage with the greatest intensity is undoubtedly the week before and after the release.
Yu Yun can catch up, which is naturally good.
After all, when promoting, the director of the film does not participate, which inevitably makes people feel that they owe something.
What's more, Yu Yun is also a director with strong box office appeal.
Of course, most films don't focus on the directors, but on the actors.
The focus of the publicity of "Tomb Raider" is naturally Li Ruoxi.
Mu Chen nodded, he just asked casually.
This year, the films released by Dawn Film and Television may not be as good as last year, but the profit is not bad.
The summer file was rounded by "Kung Fu Panda 2" and "The Avengers".
Both films have entered the box office of $4 billion, and if you add other films, not to mention domestic film and television companies, Hollywood has nothing to compare with.
And next year, Dawn Film and Television will still have several blockbuster films released.
Mu Chen's "Sword Immortal" is estimated to be released in early August next year, and in addition, there are "Resident Evil 3" and "Havoc in Heaven".
And, of course, "Chase the Deer"!
However, the blockbusters filmed, in addition to Mu Chen's "Martial God", are only live-action fairy tale movies like Marin.
Of course, there are also many other small and medium-sized investment films.
And there are no small surprises in it.
A film released on National Day with an investment of tens of millions of Chinese dollars almost broke 2 billion at the box office.
With a box office of 2 billion, it seems that it can't even enter the top ten of the domestic box office list now.
But with an investment of tens of millions, it is undoubtedly extremely rare to be able to achieve such a box office.
And the starring Huang Yao relied on this film to skyrocket in popularity, directly breaking the bottleneck and becoming another first-line star of Dawn Film and Television.
And he will naturally get more resources from Dawn Film and Television.
Huang Yao has come to this day step by step, with acting skills and high emotional intelligence.
Such people are more stable in popularity than people such as Qin Yu who became popular overnight.
"The first-line star of Dawn Film and Television, now Huang Yao has no role. Chen Fuhai said.
The arrangement of characters is naturally in superhero movies.
Needless to say, Mu Ze shined in "The Avengers", and his personal movie will start filming next year.
Su Xiaowan's character's personal movie, the script is almost the same.
Li Yunyi and Chen Xianqi will star in "Avengers 2" Scarlet Witch and Quicksilver.
Of course, the name has definitely changed.
Zhao Jin starred in Star-Lord, Jiang Qin starred in Gamora, the script of the film "Guardians of the Galaxy" starring the two has already come out, and it is estimated that Mu Chen will start filming this film after filming "Martial God".
If Mu Chen didn't direct it himself, it is estimated that he would also find a suitable director.
In addition, Miao Xun will play the role of the God of War in the Heavenly Realm, and the script of his personal movie has no shadow yet, but it is also planned.
As for Qin Yu, he is only a quasi-first line now.
If Chen Xianqi hadn't become popular with "Transformers", it is estimated that he would only be struggling on the front line.
"Have you asked him for his opinion?" Mu Chen said with a smile, "He is a good actor, he may not be willing." ”
Compared with Zhao Jin, Huang Yao is undoubtedly more like an actor.
Zhao Jin is a little reluctant to play a superhero, so what about Huang Yao?
"I didn't ask. However, he must be tempted too. Chen Fuhai said, "Who in the circle doesn't want to show his face in your superhero movie now? Li Chaoyi starred in your "Sword Immortal", and his value immediately rose a lot. Even Yuan Cheng, who doesn't have many scenes, is like this. ”
"The Avengers" swept the world, almost exploded the chrysanthemum of "Avatar", and won the top spot in the global box office list.
This allows everyone to see how much money this movie universe created by Mu Chen is.
Everyone can see that this cinematic universe has only unfolded the tip of its iceberg.
So, when the film really unfolds, how many superheroes will there be, and what will be the scene when these characters are gathered into one film, and what will be the box office of the film?
Can "Avatar" still sit at the top of the global box office charts?
The superhero movie world framed by Mu Chen has been recognized by fans around the world, so future films are naturally highly anticipated.
This is more concerned than those popular film sequels.
And once the movie world gradually unfolds, the box office of the film with the heroes gathered may only be higher than that of "The Avengers".
"Then you ask his opinion first, and then let the screenwriter department discuss it. Mu Chen said, "However, no one is sure how long these films will be popular!"
"I guess if you're annoyed, fans won't be annoyed. Chen Fuhai said with a smile.
The charm of the cinematic universe has begun to take shape, otherwise there would not be so many film and television companies that began to imitate it.
Mu Chen doesn't like to shoot sequels, which Chen Fuhai naturally knows.
It is not difficult to see from the video shot by Mu Chen.
Since his debut, he has shot a lot of films, and there are countless movies with sequel value, but so far only "Wolf Warrior" has filmed a sequel.
Fans are waiting for "Wolf Warrior 3", and now it seems that it is far away.
Mu Chen doesn't seem to have any intention of filming "Wolf Warrior 3".
There are a lot of jokes on the Internet these days.
They can't wait for anything in this life, so they can only leave a message to their descendants in the bereaved family, and wait for Mu Chen to release "Wolf Warrior 3", remember to make a copy, and then burn it to them.
No way, who let "Wolf Warrior 2" leave easter eggs!
Now it's not an easter egg, it's an "egg".
Think about it, it suddenly makes countless people's eggs hurt!
On December 24, "The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring" was released worldwide.
The publicity momentum is not small, and there is a screenwriter by Mu Chen, directed by Steve, a top Hollywood director, and the box office appeal is naturally not small.
Of course, the cast is also extremely good.
It's just that those actors are not famous in Hollywood, but in China they are far inferior to "superheroes" such as Robert.
However, the box office appeal of "Mu Chen Screenwriter" in China is still extremely strong.
This Western-style magic film won nearly 200 million at the box office on the first day of China.
This box office, although not very amazing, is also extremely good.
You must know that the quality of Chinese films is getting better and better, and the box office advantage of Hollywood blockbusters in China is no longer so obvious.
This kind of pure Western-style magic film is naturally not very popular with Chinese fans.
can have such a box office, and the screenwriter Mu Chen played a vital role.
Of course, the film's reputation is still good.
