"Our faith in superhero movies hasn't changed, but DD Pictures has a focus. You know we're a little bit better at comedies, romances. And the acquisition of MGM itself is a very challenging thing, DD is now carrying a lot of debt, we have to be a little more cautious, I think Hulk will surprise us a little bit less, but it will also be less risky. In fact, you and I both understand that there is no problem with Hulk itself, which has been proven by the global box office of 200 million. The problem is the style and technique of the film, and in the case of the former, I think the chances of success are much better with reference to Ahn Lee's failed version. As for the latter, Weta Digital has a lot of experience in key technologies such as motion capture, so we will be a little more confident in this project. ”

Kevin couldn't tell if Daniel was real or fake, so he tried to let go.

This time, Daniel went to Alberta to visit Ben An Lee, and the touch he was unique, most people focused on Daniel's substantive statement on "Brokeback Mountain" and its subject matter, but Kevin's direction was diametrically opposite.

Conservatives and religious groups have been fierce about Daniel's trip, and Daniel has given support to Brokeback Mountain on some level, which they obviously see as an offense to them, but Daniel doesn't really care about this, and his image has always had nothing to do with being conservative. What's more, since his debut, he has been on the list of men with whom gays and lesbians most want to spend a night together, and has even occupied the first place in the past two or three years. Lowe, or Jack who took over "Brokeback Mountain". Gyllenhaal, none of them could shake his position.

As for Leonardo, who is getting more and more out of shape, Brad who is deep in the quagmire of marriage and love. Pete and Tom. Cruise, of course, is all the way down the charts.

This ranking is actually very representative, and a large number of this group is actually recognized aesthetically, and generally speaking, the men on the list are either popular or have unique temperaments.

In view of this, the fear of the same clan previously wanted to include Daniel in their group. In fact, it is a very strange and abnormal behavior.

In such a noisy public opinion, the plans of Kevin and Marvel's top management have irrepressibly changed.

In fact, everything Daniel and Kevin say is sincere, except for one thing. It's hard for a New Hulk movie to get back on its feet, and it needs to have other movies of its kind to give it confidence in order to be convincing enough to tell fans that the new Hulk Hulk that meets their expectations is worth looking forward to.

Apparently. Marvel wouldn't know this, because they had no idea that superhero movies would form an unstoppable trend, and of course they couldn't imagine that other superheroes could add confidence to Hulk from fans.

In June, "The Hangover" finally came down from North America with 280 million, and the global number has reached 450 million, and it is marching to 500 million.

With an investment of 35 million, this R-rated comedy has become the highest-grossing R-rated film in film history, and DD Pictures has undoubtedly taken advantage of this to make a big splash.

Daniel successfully completed all of his freshman year of college - and his grades turned out to be good, except for a B. Everything else is A.

Fernando, Jeffrey. Kane has already rushed to Berlin to start filming "The Immortal Gardener", and Daniel will be rushing over soon, except for some things at hand. In fact, he had stopped working out for a while, and the image of a British aid diplomat in Kenya was certainly not as energetic and youthful as Daniel, but fortunately, he had already performed in "The Pianist", not to mention. Justin is nowhere near as thin as Spearman, a little shaping, and then with makeup, everything will be fine.

Before going to Berlin to start a two-month shoot. He had to deal with Los Angeles first.

The MGM takeover will be cleared by the U.S. market regulator next month, and will likely pass EU scrutiny in August. If so, then soon, MGM's work in the second half of the year needs to be arranged quickly.

"007" new work, this is a big problem, Pierce. Brosnan no longer starred. The new Bond doesn't know where it is, MGM is panicking, there is no order at all, and now Daniel can't get involved, but to ensure that once he officially takes over, things will be pushed quickly, and it won't be long.

In addition to this, Daniel also needs to list some new films for MGM.

"Youth Musical", "Bad Teacher", "Magic Mike", "Dance Out of My Life" - this wave of low-budget films was prepared by Daniel for MGM in advance. The script has long been sent to the association for the record, and Disney has nothing to do.

While writing these scripts, Daniel laughed at himself, and at first he was a little embarrassed about the doctrine. has been doing things step by step, looking for scripts, looking for directors, but when there is such a gold-swallowing monster as MGM, all the discomfort is gone with the wind, and he can even prepare so much for MGM in advance.

But sadly, Zach. Efron, Zain. Tatum, a youth idol who is about the same age as him, is basically handed over to the producers of DD Pictures to deal with, he himself does not have this time, he can only list the script, recommended directors and actors, and finally look at the finished film, it can only be like this.

Daniel can imagine what kind of expression Tatum will have when he sees the script of "Magic Mike" that is similar to his own experience, and perhaps it can only be blamed on coincidence.

In addition to these small-budget films designed to give MGM a profitable life, "Black Swan" will also enter the work process, which is to allow MGM to regain its glory at the Oscars.

Fortunately, to do these jobs, he used the screenwriting team of DD Pictures, instead of writing it himself, otherwise it would be too shocking. And he only needs to do it at the beginning, MGM is a tight Hollywood machine, once on the fast track, he only needs to take the wheel and find out what he wants from the tens of thousands of Hollywood scripts every year.

But even so, it can't be avoided that Daniel has a more and more divine status within DD Pictures.

"DD Pictures Announces Acquisition of Weta Digital's Animation Division"

"Ambitious, Daniel recruited Andrew. Stanton takes the helm of DD Pictures' new animation division. ”

"Involved in animation, after the acquisition of MGM Pictures, DD Pictures made another big move"

"Successful as always, or a big one?"

"Is Daniel crazy? Within a year, DD Pictures expanded several times. ”

Sebastian finally got a taste of Hollywood celebrities, Andrew Brown. Stanton doesn't have to deal with any of that, he's still busy with "Robots" and he's taking care of "Happy Feet," the film Animal Logic was working on — and now it's sped up a lot after Daniel gave them some pointers.

Pixar CEO John Brown. Lasseter has also been quite popular with the media lately, and in fact, when Andrew was poached by Weta, he wasn't as irritable as he is now - because there are so many media outlets, whether it is a formal interview submitted to Pixar's public relations department, or a lot more than it was back then.

There is no doubt that the establishment of an animation department by Weta Digital and the establishment of an animation department by DD Pictures are two very different things for the media.

It was a trend for big studios to create their own animation departments decades ago, but with the reality of making ends meet, it has become a new trend in recent years to eliminate animation departments. In addition to Disney, independent animated feature film production companies have become mainstream, including DreamWorks Animation, which is now also an independent animation technology company.

The results of DD Pictures' bucking the trend this time have attracted much attention.

Shortly after the news was announced.

DD Animation's inaugural press conference was officially held in Los Angeles, and the media gathered.

Sebastian, Andrew, Daniel, David, Richard. Taylor, Melissa, Ferguson and other key figures of DD Pictures and Weta Digital were all in attendance. Meyer was rather unexpectedly invited, and there were no other high-level guests of the company other than him. Of course, it's no secret that Meyer and Daniel are close, the two have been friends since very early on, and with the success of the "Spy" series, it is only natural that Meyer and Daniel have become closer and closer.

Everyone smashed the ice sculpture of DD Animation's logo together, Sebastian introduced the vision of the new company, and handed over the stage to Andrew. Stanton.

He will be in charge of introducing DD Animation's current project.

The first one, of course, is "Happy Feet"!

The news of the establishment of DD Animation was released, and it was quickly doxxed, except for Andrew's descendants brought out from Pixar, and the two sporadic technical talents poached from DreamWorks and Disney, the remaining main team was an employee of a company called Sydney Animal Logic Animation Technology. This company and George. Miller collaborated on "Happy Feet", and was finally acquired by Weta Digital as a whole due to financial problems.

These are all public messages that can be queried directly.

A cute emperor penguin was released on the big screen, and in the short picture, you can see the sophistication of the film that DD Animation bought halfway.

"Obviously chasing the Ice Age craze." A reporter muttered secretly, the magnificent and wonderful view of the south ** in the background will of course make people think of the successful "Ice Age" by the blue sky.

"This is an interesting story of emperor penguins, in the deepest part of the Antarctic lives the emperor penguin family, there is only one way for males to recruit mates: that is, to sing gracefully, but our poor little emperor penguin**, because they were knocked before birth, so they don't have this ability......"

Andrew's eloquent voice makes it easy for people to get involved in the picture behind it.

A clumsy little emperor penguin who is always bullied because he can't sing...... Come to think of it, it's really an easy story to catch.

When everyone was imagining **, Andrew flicked the remote control in his hand, and the picture suddenly changed, from the ice and snow Antarctica, all of a sudden to the vast starry sky, the earth, the spaceship, the nebula...... It's a very different story. (To be continued.) )
