Chapter 304: Invincible opponents all over the world
“Action!”
As the days passed, the temperature in Vancouver gradually warmed up, and the filming of Firefly continued every day, except, of course, the weekend. The shooting was still in the flame studio, and the crew was busy finishing all the shots of the interior set before moving the camera to the green screen stage. Heath Ledger hasn't appeared on the set yet, and Simon, the doctor played by Michael Pitt, has been on the stage for many days, so the studio acting battle has one more person to participate.
Compared with the slightly youthful in "Juno", which was overshadowed by Natalie Portman's brilliance, the now mature Michael Pitt is full of aura, not only "fighting" with Robert Downey Jr., but also forming an excellent chemistry with Alan Pegg, a raunchy genius doctor, and a simple and stubborn repairman girl.
Jessica obviously has no reputation as an acting genius, especially in the face of a group of old and young geniuses, although she can be said to be the hardest working person in the audience, Joshua said "abusing herself", but she still occupies the first position on the NG list of literary dramas, Tudyk and Torres have too few roles, and the other leading actors are too talented. Not everyone is a genius, and with more NG than others, Jessica also played Wang Yang as a satisfied Ruiva.
There are not many changes in Reva's expressions, it seems that she just puts on a gloomy face with a cold face, but how can she make a sweet and 100% angel, a person whose sweetheart image is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, become gloomy? She also has nervous attacks from time to time, and sometimes she is as simple as a little girl who has not been involved in the world, in addition to makeup, cameras, colors, etc., and there is naturally a direct relationship in performance. Jessica is also the champion of the martial arts NG rankings, but she has the most plays, complex and difficult movements, and often has to hang Weiya, so it is not surprising that she won the championship.
Riva is the Serenity's number one fighter, the first scene is to jump out of the box, instantly knock over Marr and the others, and faint when they are about to attack Kelly, and the second scene is to save their lives. After completing the train robbery, Marl and the others came to a city, and brought the goods and the wood-like Ruiva to the gang to deliver the goods, who knew that the independent gang boss who had known him for many years said, "This is not the goods I want." He argued with Marr and ordered his men to kill the Tranquility.
At this time, Ruiva suddenly went crazy and killed all the gangsters, and Simon, who was then tracking, used secret words to control the runaway Ruiva. However, when Simon wants to leave with his sister, Captain Marr thinks that Riva is a super humanoid weapon that can protect the Tranquility, and tricks him to keep Reva behind.
Now in the set of the warehouse of the gangster delivery point in the studio, the crew is filming the scene of Ruiva's sudden outburst and sweeping through thousands of troops.
This was followed by the amplified "OH...... CUT!" I saw Jessica, who was jumping from the wooden box, fell heavily to the ground, and suddenly frowned in pain, and her voice was inaudible: "Oh lord......" The martial arts actors who played gangster members around her, Robert Downey Jr. who acted as the background, as well as the film crew, the action team, and everyone looked at her, and then the director and a few assistants walked away, not injured, right?
"Jesse. Seeing her fall so hard, even if the other party is an ordinary friend like Emily Blunt, Wang Yang will be worried, let alone his beloved wife?
Hearing the eager inquiries of Wang Yang and several others, Jessica endured the hard pain, stood up quite neatly, rubbed her elbows and smiled: "I'm fine! I'm not hurt!" She took a sip of the water bottle handed by the female assistant, looked at Wang Yang, who was holding the microphone and storyboard drawings in her hand, and smiled toothily to say that it was okay: "I'm fine! I can continue filming right away, come back!"
"Well......" Wang Yang looked at her deeply, blue slip dress, long hair was scattered, makeup was pale, but his eyes were still so charming. He nodded, walked back to the camera mounted on the rail-mounted mobile car, and said, "OK, everyone prepare, come again!" Suddenly everyone in the department was back to work, and the lead actors and ensembles stood up for the camera; Jessica exhaled and took a few steps back to look at the row of glove boxes, ready to jump on it after the "Action" sounded, and then jump down after a kick.
“Action!”
Because director Wang Yang and action director Donnie Yen's actual combat style and kung fu hobby style are very sharp and fast, Ruiva is a powerful character who fights all over the world, her fighting movements are designed to be simple and gorgeous, smooth and thrilling, and the pursuit of power, speed, and heavy explosiveness. In order to shoot the best and most realistic effect, it requires all the best punches, kicks, and jumps...... This fall is not unusual.
Although the filming was very hard, Jessica did not have the slightest complaint and coquettishness, and was very brave and hardworking, which also gave the crew confidence. Now this is just a group performance, and there are more fierce fights in the back, against the predator group, blue gloves, etc., which require techniques such as hanging Weiya and green screen.
"You're still moving too slowly, it's not okay, you have to be very fast, don't hesitate to get out of your legs, I know you can do it!"
After finishing the jump and a few other shots, the shooting ran into a problem, which was a vicious and domineering chain of leg movements, after taking down a frontal enemy, Reva turned around and kicked the obstructing wooden box with a kick, and another kick kicked the gangster behind the box away. However, Jessica was always unsatisfactory in the kicking of the box when she played, and her weak movements did not play the usual explosive power.
The members of the props team and the set team rearranged the set, Donnie Yen demonstrated the movements to several martial arts group performers, and Wang Yang on the other side rubbed Jessica's head with both hands a few times, stared at her eyes, and said seriously: "You can't do it, it's not because you can't do it, it's because you're afraid of that box!" You didn't break the boundaries of your consciousness, you still thought that you were an ordinary woman, and you couldn't kick the box with one foot, but you would get hurt, so your movements slowed down with self-warning, it's your consciousness controlling your body, understand?"
"yes, I found out too. Jessica gasped and nodded, flying around filming for a long time, her body was becoming tired, if she exerted her physical strength on NG again, then this scene would probably need to be filmed for an extra day, she didn't want to slow down the filming progress of the crew! Looking at the people around her who were busy or waiting, she asked for help: "Yang, I may indeed be a little scared, I told myself to smash it hard, but it's still slow, what should I do?"
"You need to break the boundaries and let your guard down, you're Riva!" Wang Yang patted her shoulder encouragingly, sometimes really wanting to do these things for her, unless he would transform into magic. Seeing that the props team had been re-prepared, Wang Yang suddenly had an idea and smiled at her: "Hey, you see me do it again! I can do it, and you can do it too, because I gave you the courage, believe me!"
Jessica was stunned for a moment, and she already saw him walking away with a smile and clapping her hands: "I need to show Jessica how to kick the box!" Harry, take a picture and make a tidbit, this is my handsome moment!" Jessica exhaled and laughed, and quickly followed.
The sound of breaking wind suddenly sounded, and in the machine lens controlled by Harry George, the deputy photographer in the distance, I saw Wang Yang, who was being watched by everyone, suddenly turned around, rotated his left foot as an axis and raised his right foot, and in the midst of everyone's exclamations, he rested on the half-human-high prop wooden box with such momentum as a tiger, the weight and speed of the force made them see what the "explosion" that the director yelled all day long was, and the fluffy and muffled sound, the prop wooden box suddenly collapsed from head to bottom, and the props and bullets loaded inside were scattered to the ground.
"Drink!" Without stopping, the right foot that fell to the ground became the axis, Wang Yang kicked up the left leg in jeans with great strength, not full of strength but fast, and hit the burly martial arts actor mercilessly, almost kicking him up.
Hit by the vigorous attack of this chain of legs, the big man of Wu Xing twisted his eyebrows painfully, and the cold sweat all over his body rushed out at once, and he gritted his teeth and gasped for air, and sat on the ground without performing a performance, covering his chest that was still hot and painful for protection, it was not easy to eat this bowl of rice! It was okay to be beaten by an actor, but now he was beaten by the director!
"Wow, whoa!" the crowd applauded without conscience, applauding the director's gorgeous serial leg like a violent whirlwind. Watching him interpret what "fierce and mighty" means, Rao has been used to seeing him fight since he was a child, Jessica's heart still pounded, so handsome!!Alan Pegg, who clapped his hands, couldn't help but wow, laughing and shouting: "Amazing Young, this is so cool!" Seeing that Susan Levine was also smiling and applauding, Robert Downey Jr. said unconvinced: "Director, I can do it too! Why don't you arrange such camera actions for me?"
Harry George, who was filming the footage, turned off the camera. Donnie Yen, who watched it up close, was a little emotional, and it could be seen that Wang Yang's strength was not exhausted, but with such an exaggerated speed, he didn't seem to be able to match it when he was young and at his peak; And with his body and appearance, Wang Yang is really beautiful this time. There is also Wu Yanzu who has this idea, he has long thought that Magic Yang is really not a director, and going to Hong Kong to film will definitely have a bunch of film opportunities.
"Whew!" Wang Yang suppressed his breath and hugged his fists to the crowd around him, he didn't think about it so much, he looked at Jessica and smiled, raised his eyebrows and gave her an encouraging look: "You can too!" Jessica clenched her fists and nodded vigorously, she must be able to! There will be countless more difficult and thrilling moves in the future, so she doesn't want to lose to a broken box! She silently shouted: "I am Reva, Jan gave me strength!!For the Lich King!!"
Soon the props crew rearranged the set again, everyone was ready, glared viciously at the box in front of her, and the cold-faced Jessica turned around, she was not the little married woman, she was the Minotaur Chief! It was Reva!!
The hem of the dress fluttered up, but the slender and slender calves fell quickly with full force, the feet in the boots smashed heavily on the box and pressed down, half a box of props and bullets were scattered all over the ground, Jessica was red-eyed, as if she was possessed by Wang Yang, and shouted "drink" in the same way, as soon as she stood firm with her right foot, her left leg was raised and kicked towards the gangster minions! The big guy cooperated with the scream "ah" and flew down, and the whole series of actions were done in one go!
"CUT——!GOOD!!Beautiful, very good!Take a break!Set up the next shot. Wang Yang shouted praise in an accentuated voice, she did play with strength, speed, and weight, and there was a beautiful and sexy outburst, he breathed a sigh of relief, hoping that she could be so fearless in the future!
Hearing the director's satisfied CUT, everyone clapped their hands and gave encouragement to Jessica, who was smiling brightly, before starting to adjust the camera position and other work. Seeing her smiling face, Wang Yang smiled and was about to walk to her, but was stopped by Valley First and discussed: "What's the matter?......"
"Hahu, hahu......" finally finished this shot, but those wooden boxes were not paper-paste, and the happy Jessica's panting was also getting worse, and she suddenly felt that her limbs were sore, and she suddenly felt a little soreness and tiredness in her limbs, and when she turned around, her waist and abdomen hurt a little, she gently rubbed her stomach on the left side and walked to the actor's seat on the sidelines, her brows furrowed, and she muttered softly: "Now I'm a little woman again, oh my God, my strength is overdrawn......"
"Come, come, drink. As soon as Jessica sat down, Joshua, the production assistant who was watching the scene, smiled and handed her the water bottle, gave her a thumbs up, and praised: "Lady, you were so cool just now! Just like the Hulk! Godzilla!" Jessica rolled her eyes angrily, and couldn't help but laugh crisply: "Really, really, am I cool?" she said, putting down the water bottle, taking out a small and delicate wedding ring from the handbag next to her, and putting it back on her left ring finger, although it was only a break for a while, she just liked to put it back on.
Joshua nodded affirmatively, and the facts amused her: "Yes! It must be even cooler to watch on the big screen in the future!"
The filming of "Firefly" is busy every day, and after "Brokeback Mountain", Flame Movie has another key plan film that has been completed recently, not "The Hangover 2", which will be released on June 25 this summer, this sequel has already been completed and has entered the final stage of publicity; "One every Halloween" "Chainsaw 2" is also in post-production, and this time it is "Mr. Hughes 2: Power, Money and Madness" directed by Christopher Nolan, which was released on December 10 this year.
"Mr. Hughes 2" and "The Hangover 2" were launched at the same time in late September last year, and Nolan has always been notoriously slow to shoot, if it weren't for Emma Thomas's careful budgeting, the budget cost of 90 million would definitely not be enough, but it is still an unknown because the film has just entered the post-production stage.
However, everyone knows that "money is not an issue", and this movie may not be the most profitable film of the year by the Flame Group, and it is expected to be in terms of word-of-mouth, awards, and classics. Since "Brokeback Mountain" is scheduled to be released in 2005, "Mr. Hughes 2" is currently the only work in the Flame Impact awards season next year, and the money spent on publicity will definitely not be less, not to mention the production costs. As Wang Yang told Christopher Nolan: "You only need to do one thing, and that is to make the movie right." ”
The time is gradually entering the end of April, and the cinema is about to usher in the full opening of the 2004 summer vacation, and many blockbusters and dark horse potential films are eyeing up. As the vanguard of flame movies this year, "Ice Age 2" has been released in many overseas countries on April 23, and the box office data of the first weekend has not yet been born, but the closing data shows that it is extremely popular, and the audience liking of Rotten Tomatoes has reached 85%, and the word of mouth in the film critics seems to continue to "lose in a row", only 65%.
But so what? "Ice Age" fans don't care about this at all, seeing the sneak peek of overseas audiences shouting "funny and funny", the children audience are a little dissatisfied, why not the North American premier? However, this can be regarded as having caught their appetite, and they can't wait to see it.
Casting auditions while filming is the most normal thing, and there are still a number of important roles in "Firefly" that have not been decided, and it is not up to the casting director to decide. At the moment, Wang Yang is carrying out the file selection of several children's characters, in addition to identifying a Jaden Smith, "Firefly" needs two cute little girls of 5 or 6 years old the most, one appears in the Blue Glove Massacre, and the other appears in the most important scene with the people of the Tranquility.
The two little girls should be cute and beautiful, especially the latter's eyes should be absolutely clear and simple, and the childish smile represents the most beautiful things, which is shocking and unforgettable.
It's not okay to be as sharp and mature as Natalie, but it's too silly to be as stupid as Jessica...... In the quiet office, Wang Yang looked at the files of the little actors in hand, all of them were about the same height in appearance, and the children who were excluded were all because of their unsuitable temperament, and after a long time, he left some children who were invited to audition. Thinking of the blue gloves again, he suddenly muttered to himself, "What has Heath Ledger been up to lately?" and he took out his phone and pressed a number.
"Hello......" Hearing that it was actually connected, there was a deep voice from Heath Ledger, Wang Yang was very surprised, he called several times in a month, and every time he transferred the message box, if it wasn't for Heath's agent saying that he was fine, he would have to report the case. Wang Yang laughed and said, "Brother, I thought you had disappeared." Heath-Ledger replied lightly, "No." …… I'm just, in the hotel, studying the Blue Glove. ”
Listening to Heath Ledger's rather strange tone, Wang Yang raised his eyebrows suspiciously, and asked, "It's a month?" Heath over there smiled deeply: "Yes...... Target. Wang Yang suddenly understood what he had been busy with for most of the month, and said with a smile: "So you are the blue glove?" Hiss smiled again: "Yes, thank you, I am very happy." Wang Yang leaned on the back of the chair and sighed, feeling that this guy seemed to be a little nervous, he wouldn't get too deep into the play, right?
It's good to be in the movies on the set, but it's not so good outside the set, especially for people with abnormal human thinking like Blue Glove. Wang Yang shook his head, and then invited decisively: "Come out and play together tomorrow!" Heath Ledger said, "No." Wang Yang suddenly shouted: "Please, Hiss, Hiss, come out, let's go play!" Heath-Ledger over there seemed to be awakened by fright: "...... Belch. ”
