Chapter 1196 is good at the box office

"I Am Legend" competed for the summer file, and when it was written as a movie with the theme of "doomsday" and "zombie", many people paid attention to it.

The "zombie" creature is a very popular creature that spread around the world with Resident Evil.

Including the authors of online literature, they also like this creature very much, and it has a lot of development.

After "Resident Evil", many people have released similar zombie-themed movies, which are also very popular.

Zombie-themed apocalyptic movies have really been popular for a while, and there are similar movies being filmed now.

Jiangxia's "zombie" movie has attracted much attention as soon as it is promoted.

Can the latest "zombie" movie of "Father of Zombies" go unnoticed?

What's more, in the whole movie, there is only one starring role in the brilliant "Jiangxia", and no other actors appear, and it is a clean mess.

The whole movie seems to be just a one-person movie.

In fact, this movie is indeed Jiang Xia's movie alone.

Jiang Xia revised part of the script and deleted the characters of the woman and child who saved him later.

In the whole movie, he is really the only one alive.

The story of "I Am Legend" tells the story of three years after the zombie outbreak, the protagonist is left alone in the whole city, looking for survivors who may be alive while looking for a solution to the zombie virus, and he is accompanied only by a dog named "Mengmeng".

In the original movie, the zombie cleverly sets a trap to trap the protagonist, and then a woman comes to the rescue of the protagonist.

In Jiang Xia's version, the role of this woman was directly deleted.

In the second half of his design, there is no woman, and there is no child.

In the end, there was a big battle, and the zombies found his place and besieged him.

The protagonist, who hides in the glass room, watches as the zombies smash the glass room and snatch the female zombies who were being experimented, and then a group of zombies surround them.

The whole movie, the style is very dark, and after putting aside the heroine and children in the second half, it is even more tragic.

The original version of "I Am Legend" has two endings, the difference is in the collision with the glass, the first ending is that the zombie smashes the glass and comes in, and then the protagonist and the zombie die together, and the other two people come to the survivor base with the protagonist's blood. The second ending is that the zombie saves his wife and spares the protagonist's life.

When filming movies, many directors like to shoot different endings to express their different tendencies.

Jiang Xia rarely makes movies, but this is rarely the case, and he usually only shoots one ending.

Here in "I Am Legend", the ending he filmed is a version of the original version of two endings in one.

The zombie rescued his wife, but he didn't give up killing the protagonist, and the other zombies still surrounded him, and when he was about to kill the protagonist, an explosion occurred, and the protagonist and the zombies died together.

If it is really about the theme, the second theme of the original version is more interesting.

Any species has feelings, and in the eyes of zombies, the protagonist is the heinous villain, just like humans see robots treating them as experiments, and of course they have to resist to save people.

The first ending is more in line with the laws of commercial blockbusters, personal heroism, which is very good.

Jiang Xia mixed the two, and combined the two into one without eliminating children and women, which not only reflects the emotion of the zombie species, but also reflects their grievances, and also reflects the stubbornness of the protagonist.

In the absence of women and children, in order to reflect his loneliness at that time, Jiang Xia did not let the protagonist retell the lines in the cartoon, but watched "Journey to the West" with no sound and no subtitles, and he dubbed his lines there, like a voice actor.

The protagonist is the only one who can solve the zombie virus, his blood has a detoxifying function, how to send the blood out without women and children?

Without sending the blood out, he is not a legend and does not fit the whole theme.

What Jiang Xia arranged for this section was that he saved the two tubes of blood, and then a person who was just a silhouette came here, picked up the saved tube of blood, saw the words he wrote, and then, in a blink of an eye, he came to the survivor base and handed over the two tubes of blood.

strengthens the presence of the protagonist and eliminates the legendary, which is part of Jiang Xia's modification of "I Am Legend".

The death of the protagonist in the ending is further complicated.

The second ending in the original version of "I Am Legend", that is, the ending where the zombies rescued their wives but let the three of them go, Jiang Xia looked a little unreasonable, and it weakened the legend too much. On the contrary, it is the ending of the first version, after that explosion, he came to the survivor base with blood, which better reflects the legend of the protagonist.

Jiang Xia also chose to weaken the legend of the protagonist and complicate the ending, which was a little less reasonable.

There is no explanation why a person suddenly appeared, the protagonist has lived a lonely life for three years and can't find a living person, how can there be one more person in the end?

Jiang Xia didn't give an explanation, or even a final date, but there was a person who, at noon, picked up the two tubes of blood here and sent them to the survivor base.

The release date of "I Am Legend" was at the end of June, and it did not really enter the summer file, and it was the first movie to open the door to the summer file.

Jiang Xia was filming the costume part of "Myth" at that time.

"Mythology" is more troublesome to shoot than "I Am a Legend", in order to better present the military power of the Great Qin, Jiang Xia magnified that war and extended the time.

The release of "I Am Legend" had a high box office on the first day.

It's a commercial blockbuster!

Anyone who first saw the film thought so.

There are a lot of special effects shots in it, barren cities, unusual zombie "dark chasers", who eat special effects, and those animals, who also eat special effects shots.

At the end, in the brilliant explosion sparks, I felt very high, and I thought it was a very good commercial blockbuster.

So, "I Am Legend" did quite well at the box office.

One person starred in a movie, and no one else joined, and Jiang Xia's personal performance was magnified to the extreme.

After "The Grandmaster" and "Gravity", this "I Am a Legend" seems to be back on track, and Jiangxia's commercial masterpieces have returned, making many people go into the cinema to support.

When almost everyone thought that Jiangxia was a commercial blockbuster and was back on track to compete for the box office, a well-known judge of the Oscars in the United States announced his status on social media: "Jiang's new movie is very good, he contributed peak acting skills, the theme of the whole movie is very good, it is a movie worth pondering and discussing, this year's Oscar selection, I will nominate Jiang Dang for Best Actor." ”
