Now that he accepted Warner Bros.'s request, Murphy would definitely not be absent from the premiere of "Batman v Superman", and flew to New York, where the North American premiere was held, for this purpose. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Since the collapse of the negotiation with Warner Bros. because of the payment, in addition to knowing that Warner and DC found Zack Snyder to take over the DC series, Murphy did not continue to pay attention, but when he learned that Warner Bros. chose "Batman v Superman", he also sighed in his heart, he wanted to correct the way of DC movies, but the other party stubbornly returned to the old way.

And he really can't understand why he is in such a hurry when the current DC series and the Marvel series started almost at the same time?

Perhaps, Warner Bros. and DC Comics want to prove that without him Murphy Stanton, DC superhero movies can still be incredibly successful.

This is Murphy's own random guess, of course, it is impossible to do accurately, but it is true that Warner Bros. and DC Comics did not take the step-by-step plan he originally made.

Because he was busy with Oscar PR before, and after Oscar PR was preparing the script and plan for the new project, Murphy did not participate in the test screening of "Batman v Superman", but judging from the news on the market, the reputation of the test screening seems to be quite good, the freshness of Rotten Tomatoes is as high as 100%, and all the media that participated in the test screening have given praise, and the IMDB score is 9.4 for the time being.

Even, Warner's media are still touting that the film has zero negative reviews.

All this is very similar to the situation before the release of "Batman v Superman" in Murphy's memory.

In the past, the word of mouth of the test screening before the release was simply explosive, and the fans who participated in the test screening had zero negative reviews, what was the result?

Before going to Lincoln Center, Murphy deliberately watched the trailer of "Batman v Superman", which was affected by his participation, and appeared in advance, with a strong typical Zack Snyder style, although there are many changes due to the lack of Wonder Woman, it is not difficult to find Zack Snyder's deep-rooted personal style.

For die-hard comic book fans, Zack Schneider will always be the best adaptation director, but for passers-by and viewers, Zack Schneider's adaptation friendliness is just too poor.

Arriving at the Lincoln Center, Murphy walked the red carpet, and today's premiere was huge, and the atmosphere was frenetic, anyway, it was a Superman and Batman movie, and it was a natural eye-catcher.

Knowing that he wasn't the star of the night, Murphy quickly walked the red carpet and then saw Chris Evans, who went on to play Superman Clark Kent, and Ben Affleck, who played Batman Bruce Wayne.

Although Murphy wanted to enter the theater directly after passing the red carpet, the media area set up in front of the theater was a must-pass place, and those media reporters couldn't let him go.

A reporter came up and asked loudly, "Director Stanton, why did you quit DC's superhero series?" ”

Murphy shrugged slightly, "Because I have other films to make." ”

"What do you think Zack Schneider takes over the series?" Another reporter asked.

"Zack Schneider is a very good director." Murphy's answer was watertight, "I believe he will bring us a wonderful superhero movie." ”

After saying that, he ignored the other questions thrown by these reporters and walked directly to the theater.

When I was about to reach the door of the theater, the sound of hurried high heels sounded behind me, and it seemed that someone had chased after me.

"Hi, Murphy."

Hearing this familiar voice, Murphy turned his head to see that Margot Robbie, dressed in a goose-yellow evening gown, had already walked over.

This can also be regarded as his friend, or Gal Gadot's best friend, Murphy nodded and said with a smile, "When did you arrive, Maggie, I didn't expect to see you here." ”

Margot Robbie walked up to Murphy, took his arm politely, and walked towards the theater together, explaining as they went, "Didn't you hear? Warner Bros. and DC Comics prepare to set up a project for the Suicide Squad. ”

"Are you interested in this project?" Murphy immediately understood what she meant.

"Hmm." Margot Robbie nodded, and didn't need to hide it from Murphy, and said directly, "My agent suggested that I fight for the role of Harley Quinn. ”

Murphy glanced at her, "Well, you're a good fit for the role." ”

Entering the theater's vestibule, Margot Robbie remembered and asked, "Hasn't Gale come back yet?" ”

"I came back once in February and went back again." Murphy said simply, "She has something to attend to at home, and she will stay in Israel for a while." ”

Margot Robbie looked at Murphy and asked, "It won't be her parents......"

As a best friend, she knows a few things about Gal Gadot, including the fact that her parents want her to stay in Tel Aviv and develop.

"It's not." Murphy shook his head, "It's business. ”

Just as Murphy was talking to Margot Robbie, a man walked over and greeted him politely, "Hi Murphy, I haven't seen you in a long time." ”

"Hello, Bruce." Murphy shook his outstretched right hand, "It's been a long time. ”

The man who came over was none other than Warner Bros. CEO Bruce Rosenblum, the same person with whom he had worked on Man of Steel.

Thinking that Margot Robbie was going to fight for the role of Harley Harley, Murphy then introduced Bruce Rosenblum to Bruce Rosenbloom, "This is my friend, Margot Robbie. ”

"Hello, Miss Robbie." Bruce Rosenblum shook hands gently with Margot Robbie, "Your role as Sansa Stark is impressive. ”

Margot Robbie immediately made a look of surprise, "Thank you, it's my honor to watch this show." ”

Bruce Rosenblum only looked at Murphy's face before he exchanged a pleasant greeting with a little-known young actor, and then turned his face and said to Murphy, "Your "Man of Steel" has created a very good situation for us, and Zack Snyder's film is almost seamless to that "Man of Steel". ”

"Really?" Murphy didn't say much, "Then I'm going to take a good look at this film." ”

"You can watch it as many times as you want." Bruce Rosenblum was a little smug, "Warner Bros. can give you a free ticket." ”

Murphy shook his head, "That's not necessary. ”

Bruce Rosenblum pointed to the door of the theater, "I have other people to greet you, feel free to do so." ”

Seeing Murphy nodding, he turned around and walked towards the door of the theater, and turned his head slightly in the middle to look at it, and couldn't help but be a little disappointed when he saw Murphy laughing with Margot Robbie.

Warner Bros. wanted to cooperate with Murphy Stanton the most, but he offered a price that was too high, and the 125% of the film's full revenue share was outrageous, so Warner Bros. would have to pay him almost half of the profits.

No one in Hollywood is willing to pay such a high price for a director, so he chose to give up, and then looked for a new director, and after many recommendations, he found a Zack Schneider whose style is most like Murphy Stanton, and the other party's salary is cheap enough.

Judging from the current situation, Zack Snyder is doing quite well, Warner Bros. has organized a test screening for die-hard fans of DC Comics, and nearly a thousand die-hard fans of the comics have no bad reviews, which makes him and Warner's senior management have more expectations for this "Batman v Superman".

If the film can be successful, it can pull the entire DC superhero series out of the shadow of Murphy Stanton and Man of Steel, and it can also prove that he and Warner Bros. made the right choice.

As long as the box office and word-of-mouth are a big hit, none of this is a problem.

After greeting some of the people he knew in the room, Murphy entered the screening room, and Margot Robbie followed, and deliberately changed seats with the person next to Murphy and sat on his left.

"Murphy."

Before the film had yet to be screened, Margot Robbie asked, "What do you think of the film?" ”

"How would I know?" Murphy spread his hands, "I didn't attend the preview screening of Warner Bros., how can I know if the film is good or bad if I haven't watched it." ”

Margot Robbie shrugged, "I thought you saw it." ”

Soon, the movie began to be screened, similar to what Murphy remembers, the film starts from the perspective of Batman, the absolute protagonist in "Man of Steel" inevitably becomes a supporting role for Batman, in fact, it's nothing, but after watching it for a while, he can only shake his head.

This "Batman v Superman" is definitely not a bad movie, and it is still far from Hollywood's super bad movies, but just like the one that used to be, no matter how you look at it, this film directed by Zack Snyder is a movie for DC Comics fans.

It is not a popular and diversified commercial film at all, nor is it an easy-to-understand work, and another reason is that a lot of things have been cut from the editing, and even then it is still too informative, even for people like Murphy who have roughly read comics, sometimes they will be blindfolded and unable to digest it in time......

Indeed, the movie itself is personalized, especially Murphy's impression of Zack Snyder has always had his own style, perhaps fans think that he has restored the comics very well and used the dark style just right.

But the question is, as the first few parts of a whole series, they can all be said to be foundational works, and the foundational works are not used to attract fans, but only to please the old fans who already have, for the production company, is this really no problem?

On the other hand, the pace of the film is too slow, the plot is too long, and it is now the information age with a rhythm that exceeds the rhythm, and such a rhythm is almost destined to be unacceptable to a considerable number of viewers who have adapted to the fast-paced life.

"Poof......

When the movie is put to the end of Batman v Superman, Margot Robbie next to Murphy can't help but laugh anymore, and then more laughter erupts in the theater.

It's a dark and heavy film, and it doesn't have any jokes attached to it, so it makes people laugh, what does that mean? (To be continued.) )
