Chapter 892: Heavenly Evil Lone Star (Alliance Leader Lonely Boat Lonely Boat Lisa Wa Jia Geng 1)
Most of the people in the lounge entered the screening room, and when they saw Matthew disappearing into the doorway, Jada Smith withdrew her gaze and muttered dissatisfiedly, "Why is he here?
Will Smith tugged at her and reminded, "Jada!"
"Humph......" Jada Smith raised her nostrils, snorted coldly at the door of the passage, and said in a low voice, "I can't help but be angry when I see Matthew Horner!"
Will Smith looked at the few people in the lounge and said, "Let's go in too." ”
The two men walked into the hallway and saw that there was no one around, and Jada Smith said, "Spike Lee has been in the hospital twice for resuscitation. ”
Will Smith was silent, and since the loss of Spike Lee, the black people in the circle have lost a banner to fight for freedom and democracy.
"It's no use to think too much. "Will Smith's mind is more than a little better than Jada Smith," Matthew Horner has worked with Warner Bros. for many years, and Warner Bros. should have invited him over. ”
Still a little dissatisfied, Jada Smith muttered, "A bunch of bastards who only look at profit." ”
Will Smith frowned, too lazy to refute, commercial companies don't look at interests in cooperation, do they still look at the so-called friendship?
"Matthew Horner is now Warner Bros.' most important star partner. He couldn't help but say something.
"Soon it won't!" Jada Smith tightened Will Smith's arm, ""Green Lantern is very important to Warner Bros. and DC Comics! The Justice League universe is Warner Bros. is the first series of film projects promoted by Warner Bros. after the "Harry Potter" series, "Green Lantern" is successful, Warner Bros. attaches great importance to us, at least it will not be worse than Matthew Horner, as long as the cooperation lasts for a long time, it may not be impossible to squeeze out Matthew Horner. ”
Will Smith nodded in rare agreement, looking at Hollywood, but all popular A-list or super-A-list stars often have long-term close cooperation with film companies, Johnny Depp and Disney Pictures, Tom Cruise and Paramount Pictures, Adam Sandler and Sony Columbia, Matt Damon and Universal Pictures......
If he can establish a long-term and stable relationship with Warner Bros., the career that has already begun to decline will undoubtedly climb again.
Warner Bros.'s ambitions are not limited to superhero movies, but also other commercial blockbusters, and with a bit of luck, he might be able to go the Christopher Nolan route.
In this way, he still has hope of making it to the ranks of superstars.
Once, he was only one step away from the threshold of superstardom, and since the failure to compete with Matthew Horner for "I Am Legend", his career has been declining, and now he can only barely maintain a first-line situation.
In fact, taking over "Green Lantern" is also a more helpless choice.
Now it seems that the popularity of superhero movies is even better than his most optimistic predictions.
Will Smith walked into the screening room and happened to pass by Matthew, looking at the superstar who was chatting and laughing with Leonardo DiCaprio, and it was impossible to say that he didn't have envy and hatred at all.
After all, his failure to compete for the leading actor in "I Am Legend" is a recognized turning point in his career both inside and outside the circle.
But Will Smith was calm and sober, telling himself over and over again that it had nothing to do with Spike Lee, nothing to do with personal vendettas, just normal business competition.
Moreover, after the fall of Spike Lee, the black people of Hollywood need a flag, a black superstar, and more power for their fellow citizens.
Hollywood's top resources are very few, and if you don't fight for them, it is impossible for them to fall on your own head.
As long as "Green Lantern" is successful, he will have the capital to negotiate with Warner Bros.
Out of the corner of his eye, he caught a glimpse of Will Smith passing by, and Matthew continued to talk to Leonardo DiCaprio, and the topic of the two was of course inseparable from women, especially blonde, long-legged, beautiful and slender women.
Recently, TMZ exploded Hollywood gossip, saying that Matthew, Leonardo and George Clooney are the girls' favorite Hollywood "diamond kings", and even many of the young girls interviewed immediately said that she would go home with them as long as anyone wanted to.
The evaluation of Matthew is: "Almost everyone knows that Matthew Horner's ability and skills are great, and countless women have said that they enjoy him very much. ”
"The ones you play are outdated. Leonardo, as if you couldn't compare to me, said to Matthew, "Do you know how I play? I'll sneak into my garden with the girls, and do it next to the monkey cage, and watch the monkeys imitate the movements, and the girls are very excited and proud of it." ”
Matthew shook his head, "Aren't you afraid that the monkey will be too excited, what if you rush out of the cage?"
At this point, a picture came to his mind of a monkey being stimulated to break the cage and crush Leonardo underneath.
"That's right, Matthew. Leonardo DiCaprio suddenly changed the subject and asked in a low voice, "How did you get rid of those women, and why did they say hello?"
Matthew didn't say anything pretentious, and replied lightly, "Because when I ask them out, it will show that dating and being together are two different things." ”
Just because two people are dating doesn't mean they have to be together.
Matthew chatted with Leonardo DiCaprio about women and marriage for a while, and Leonardo directly said that he was destined to be single for the rest of his life.
These words can't help but remind Matthew of Leonardo DiCaprio's birthday, he attended a Leonardo birthday party a long time ago, and that special day is simply unforgettable.
Leonardo DiCaprio's birthday is November 11th, and it's really fateful.
"So, Leonardo is destined to be a lone star. Matthew muttered to himself, "Leave those tall, sexy and beautiful female models to me." ”
The big screen lit up at this time, and Matthew ended his conversation with Leonardo DiCaprio about women, and watched this "Green Lantern" intently, wanting to see if it was the same as the one that still had a little impression of the main plot.
Compared with "Batman", which relies on high-tech equipment to win the world, or "Fantastic Four", "Spider-Man" and "Hulk" that take the route of human transformation, this superhero movie of "Green Lantern" seems to be a little bit on both sides, and the protagonist is an out-and-out earthling.
A test pilot named Hal Jordan, by various coincidences, he obtained a powerful energy ring from highly intelligent beings in outer space, possessed incredible abilities, and became a "Green Lantern".
Subsequently, his road to eliminating violence and peace began.
In addition, the film sets up a "Green Lantern Army" to maintain the balance of various regions of the universe, the Green Lantern Army divides the universe into 3600 and sectors, and each sector has a Green Lantern responsible for security patrols, and in this part of the solar system, the responsibility of protecting the earth and maintaining peace falls on Hal Jordan played by Will Smith.
Because of the investment in superhero movies, Matthew also simply read some superhero comics, most of which are Marvel's and a few are DC's.
Now that Will Smith starred in the Green Lantern, he also previously skimmed through the mainline comics about Hal Jordan.
For a comic that has been serialized for more than 70 years, how to choose a huge story line and put it into a movie is a very important key point, especially a comic with an unusually large world view like "Green Lantern".
In the main comics, there are many Green Lanterns, with different identities, personalities, and the process of changing their fate because of the appearance of the green light, and the movie version finally chose Hal Jordan, who played a heavier role.
Everyone's green light has different abilities and weaknesses, for example, the first generation of green light Alan Scott's green light ability is flying and penetrating, and the weakness is that it does not work on wooden objects, while Ha Jordan's green light ring can visualize ideas, the only weakness is that it does not work on yellow objects.
Hal Jordan is known as "the greatest Green Lantern of all time" in the original books and is one of the founders of the Justice League.
Matthew had long forgotten the details of that film, and there was no way to compare them, but when he saw the second half, especially when Blake Lively's heroine recognized Will Smith with only a green blindfold, he was sure that the main plots of the two films were not much different.
One thing that particularly impressed him was that Green Lantern's suit was equally glaring and uncomfortable to look at.
When I watched the pirated version on the other side of the Pacific, I just felt that the Green Lantern's suit was awkward, and why it was awkward, a layman couldn't say it at that time, but Matthew can easily tell it now, this is because the Green Lantern's suit is completely CGI-made.
He remembered the previous publicity made by Warner Bros., and the producer swore to the audience that this green lantern suit was completely made with special effects because the material requirements of real clothes in real life could not achieve the established effect, and it can definitely subvert the audience's understanding of Green Lantern, so whether this point is a selling point or a failure can only be seen after the release.
"The visuals are fabulous. Leonardo DiCaprio suddenly said to him, "The shortcomings of the story are obvious. ”
Matthew nodded lightly, this film really has all the money spent on special effects.
Leonardo DiCaprio added, "A sound and light show, the characters ...... Both the male protagonist and the villain are too nonexistent. ”
Matthew watched the Green Lantern fight the villains who resembled a lump of poop and whispered, "Warner Bros. and their Justice League universe are in trouble. ”
Judging by the memories and years of experience, the chances of failure of this film should far outweigh the possibility of success.
At the end of the screening, Matthew and Leonardo DiCaprio still walked to the front row, sent their blessings together, and said polite words such as the film is excellent.
As for successes and failures, it will soon be clear.
