Chapter 1053: The Witcher Washington

According to the plan of Embassy Pictures, just like last year's "Life and Death Fight", Uwe Power's film is once again scheduled to be released in January next year.

To some extent, "Vampire Slayer" is also the opening film of Relativity Entertainment next year.

Among the directors who have worked with Relativity Entertainment for a long time, Uwe Ball is a very prolific genre, basically shooting, producing and releasing at a rate of one per year.

Of course, even Ronan can't deny that this is directly related to the low investment and shoddy production of the films directed by Uwe Bauer.

Without so much meticulous shooting and production, the speed will naturally be raised.

As for "Lincoln vs. Zombies", eighty percent will be directly pushed into the DVD market and Netflix streaming platform, this kind of B-grade film will go the way of theatrical distribution, and it is estimated that it will not even be able to earn back the cost of film copying.

Uwe Bauer's energy has shifted to new film projects and is working on new films.

Ronan went to the farm in the suburbs of Los Angeles to shoot "Latent" and looked at the specific situation of the crew.

The car was parked in the temporary parking area specially opened up by the farm, the huge farm has long been bought by Shahai Entertainment and transformed into a temporary filming location for farm scenes, although because of the filming needs, the farm is still a dilapidated appearance, but the busy flow of people is no longer deserted.

The farm is divided into two parts, the living area on the east side is occupied by the crew of "The Conjuring", and the functional area on the west side, where Uwe Bauer is leading people to plant trees.

Ronan went to Uwe Bauer's crew first.

"Hurry!

The crew did not shoot, but was making preliminary preparations, and Uwe Bauer stood in the middle of a crowd of people, holding a megaphone and shouting, directing the crane to put a tree into the dug pit: "Bury the soil! Hurry up and bury the soil!"

Several people worked at the same time, and the tree was quickly planted in the ground.

A man with a large axe next to him reminded Uwe Ball: "Director, Mr. Anderson is here." ”

Uwe Bauer gave a few more orders to the people below, handed the megaphone to the assistant, and then walked over: "Hi, Ronan, I was busy just now, I didn't notice you coming." ”

Ronan didn't care about that, pointed to the five-meter-tall tree and asked, "Is this a cherry tree?"

Uwe Bauer touched his increasingly bald forehead and said, "The story you told me about Washington and the cherry tree is very instructive, and Washington used the cherry tree to practice axes as a teenager. ”

Ronan nodded slowly, it seems that the name of this fallen cherry blossom axe, Washington is going to sit down.

Uwe Bauer added: "It's a special environment, and sometimes it's creepy. His eyes looked at the Conjuring crew in the distance: "This desolate and gloomy atmosphere is very suitable for the mysterious, terrifying and desolate atmosphere of the North American continent in the film." ”

Ronan said: "After Shahai Entertainment bought the farm, it was modified to meet the requirements of filming horror films according to James Win's requirements. ”

"No wonder. "Sometimes I come out at night and I feel like it's not right. ”

The two talked a few words about the farm and talked about the film in the pipeline, and Ronan gave Uwe Bauer a proper cheer: "It's very good that you add a Cthulhu element to the background. ”

Uwe Bauer said: "The main thing is to highlight the difficulties of the founding of the United States, so as to highlight the strength and greatness of the protagonists, not only Washington, but also Fullins and Jefferson and others, will also appear in this film." ”

Ronan knew Uwe Bauer's ambitions and asked, "Have you decided on the official title of this project?"

"It's just confirmed, and I haven't had time to go through the procedure yet. At this moment, Uwe Bauer actually had a kind of artistic style of a great director: "The film is going to be called "The Witcher Washington", can you watch it?"

"The Witcher Washington?" Ronan had a strange feeling as he suddenly thought of a well-known image, name, and greatest characteristic.

Since there is a witcher, there is always no corresponding matching elements, and he asked: "What about the female characters? ”

Uwe Bauer smiled with a wrinkle on his face, and said, "Prepare a few characters like witches, it's okay to talk to the witcher Washington, soothe your emotions or something." ”

Ronan nodded slowly and said, "Uwe, plan and shoot this film well, I'm very optimistic." ”

Maybe when Uwe Bauer's movie is released and the Internet spreads wildly, the name of the witch piledriver will not necessarily be transferred to Washington.

Such a plot may be controversial, but it will not be very controversial, and spoofing the president and the like is never a matter of course among Hollywood and American audiences.

In the strange Western countries, there are often some messy things, and now the pig in the white house and the black charcoal behind it are scolded by the media and the people miserably? Later, President Sichuan proved that there is no worst, only worse!

The French side is even more excessive than the United States, and the French will take care of the country and their own lives if they have nothing to do.

"As long as 'Lincoln the Vampire Slayer' and 'Washington the Witcher' are successful, the whole project can be rolled out," Uwe Ball said. ”

Ronan agrees with his statement: "Uwe, it's entirely up to you to take care of this set. Thinking of the so-called "goddess" that Uwe Bauer is striving for, he specifically emphasized: "You don't have to think about other film projects." ”

Uwe Bauer understood what Ronan was talking about, let out a long sigh, nodded slowly, and said, "A pursuit that is destined to be fruitless is just a tragedy." ”

Ronan understood the sad feeling of being used as a spare tire by the goddess in his heart, and said with relief: "When Blizzard encounters difficulties in adapting "World of Warcraft" in the future, they will understand your hard work. ”

Uwe Bauer smiled, his smile a little bitter, and changed the subject slightly: "Blizzard has been in some trouble lately, and it doesn't have time to ignore me anymore." ”

"What's wrong?" Ronan wondered.

At this time, Blizzard should release a new expansion, right? Is it too late? Or did you forget to open it? Anyway, at this time, Blizzard was at its peak because of the popularity of "World of Warcraft".

A hundred times stronger than when the legion came and came again, and the Lich King was angry and angry.

Uwe Bauer said: "There are some copyright troubles that could seriously affect the reputation of World of Warcraft. He explained simply: "A company in the San Fernando Valley took a fancy to the influence of World of Warcraft and launched an adult film with a very similar name, World. of .whorecraft" and opened its official website on the web. ”

Ronan is not surprised, the San Fernando Valley does this kind of thing, and the particular ones will pay some money to buy the copyright, and they will start filming without paying attention to a plausible name and content.

I vaguely had the impression that "World of Warcraft" once seemed to have an adult version of the film.

Uwe Bauer continued: "Blizzard is outraged and has filed a lawsuit in California District Court......

Seeing that Ronan was interested, Uwe Ball gave a rough description.

Blizzard's masterpiece "World of Warcraft" has caused a lot of repercussions around the world after it was gamified online, and it has also attracted a lot of attention.

Of course, in the usual style of the San Fernando Valley, "World of Warcraft" inevitably attracted the attention of a group of artists.

Without any authorization from Blizzard, a company in the San Fernando Valley made several art films based on Warcraft.

And it's not like filming one and pulling it down, so far four seasons have been filmed, and it is said that the fifth and sixth seasons will be filmed.

As a work of art with sword and sorcery as its selling point, it borrows the style of Blizzard's World of Warcraft in many aspects, including the background and character design.

As we all know, the San Fernando Valley has far more artists than Hollywood in terms of handsome men and beautiful women.

So, there's no shortage of eye-catching look-up artists, including Night Elves, Human Paladins, and High Elf Magies, as well as green orcs and goblins......

In addition, the company has also opened an official website specifically for this series, which can not only download film and television works online to enjoy, but also buy some exquisite stills, T-shirts and exquisite dolls and other peripherals online.

According to Uwe Ball, the site is very popular among Warcraft fans, and some fans even use the site to buy birthday presents for their families, and although they can't buy Frost Sorrow for their dad, they also have air-dried bananas from Tyrande.

The San Fernando Valley also has a large art market, and the annual trade fair is also a huge event.

It is conceivable that Blizzard, whose interests have been directly infringed, cannot give up.

Ronan then went to the crew of Wen Ziren's "The Conjuring".

Unlike "The Witcher Washington", the crew of "The Conjuring" has already started filming, and when Ronan passed, there was a prop corpse hanging on the crooked neck tree of the farm residence, which was really scary when viewed from a distance.

In addition, Ronan also chatted with Patrick Wilson and Vera Farmiga, the actors and actresses who play the Warrens and will appear in several films in the "horror movie universe".

Between shooting, Wen Ziren also came over to chat with Ronan

Wen Ziren said simply: "The style of this movie is not very different from my previous films. For this film, I was going to use a very traditional horror film style and make it look like a 1970s movie. Musically, my choice will also be very traditional, and I plan to use the standard music of horror films. What I wanted to do was make a traditional horror film with a classic style. ”

Ronan had already handed over the series to him and said, "James, you can make a decision. ”

Because of the busy filming, Ronan did not disturb Wen Ziren too much, so as not to delay the official work of the crew.

"The Conjuring" will not be released until next year, that is, in 2008.

However, as the first film to truly start the "horror movie universe", "Latent" will be released in late August.
