Shortly after returning to Los Angeles, Duke and Warner Bros. held a press conference to officially announce the release date of "The Dark Knight" on May 4, 2007, which is the first weekend of next summer. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info

Perhaps many people have long guessed that this sequel to Batman will be released during this time period, and many Hollywood companies have actively avoided early May, such as Sony Columbia Pictures.

Although it has been nearly 20 years since it was acquired by Sony Group, Sony Columbia Pictures has never gotten rid of the situation of hanging its tail from the six major companies, and even was almost surpassed by DreamWorks for a time.

Sony Entertainment's tentacles have been extended to Hollywood for so many years, and they have to face an embarrassing situation, the real signature movie is only "Spider-Man", and even after the 007 series was taken into their hands, the performance of the last few films has a tendency to hit the street.

Faced with such a situation, Sony Entertainment did not want to see any accidents in "Spider-Man", not only smashed huge amounts of money into marketing on "Spider-Man 3", but also deliberately avoided the beginning of May and chose the third weekend premiere in May.

This way, the film will be a weekend away from Duke's new work, and it will not be too affected by "The Dark Knight".

Both of the two blockbusters, both with an investment of more than $150 million, were still vacant for a weekend, but the traditional forces of Hollywood, no one interspersed their own works, and no one wanted to be sandwiched between the sequels of the two blockbuster series.

The traditional forces won't do it, but it doesn't mean that the emerging forces in Hollywood won't do it, that is, on the third day after Duke and Warner Bros. held a press conference, David? Ellison's Sky Studios also announced that it would invest up to $15,000 to be funded by Will Will? "I Am Legend" starring Smith will be officially released in North America on May 11.

This film, based on the famous novel, runs between "The Dark Knight" and "Spider-Man".

"David? Ellison's ambition is evident. ”

During the break on the set, Scarlett, who came to visit the class, stood behind Duke, and followed Tina? Fei talked about the news. "It is said that he also prepared $120 million for the promotion and marketing of the film, without having to pay a dollar in advance with Walt Disney."

"No way, he has a rich enough father." Tina? Faye's eyes turned to Duke, who was sitting in the director's chair, "His dad is just like him." It also looks like our boss is very unpleasant. ”

"Actually, it's not a bad thing." Scarlett lifted her chin with one hand.

Tina? Fei didn't quite understand what she meant, and asked, "Why do you say that?" ”

Scarlett suddenly laughed, "Because in the future, I will have reasons and excuses to laugh at that brother and sister again." ”

Although I don't know that "I Am Legend" is placed in David? What kind of changes will occur in Ellison's hands, but the other party's production only needs to be as good as it once was. Coupled with such a high investment in publicity, it will definitely be a strong opponent.

However, Duke didn't distract himself too much, and making "The Dark Knight" well was the basis for winning the competition.

Ignoring the two women standing in the lounge chatting, Duke's mind was all on the shooting.

In the center of the venue in front of the camera, a green screen has been erected, and post-production will be replaced with a large screen. Fishburne and Christian? Bell is ready to go.

Before the shooting, Duke walked over and said a few words.

"Lawrence. Lucius? Fox has always been a staunch supporter of Batman, but he is also worried when he sees such a scene. Duke said to the black actor, "You have to show that in your tone and in your expressions." ”

Lawrence? Fisberg nodded lightly and said, "I understand, Bruce?" Wayne had crossed the line here, and with this device that monitored the entire city, he was on the verge of breaking his own boundary. ”

"I'll ruin him." Christian? Bell pointed to the green screen and said, "Don't worry, I'm a very moral person. ”

Bell's rare joke. Tempering the mood of the shoot, Duke nodded to the two and returned to his seat.

Maybe it's because you don't have to face the clown's pervert, Christian? Bell was a lot less stressed. It's very relaxed.

Relaxation is sometimes a good thing, sometimes it is a bad thing, Bale is obviously a little too relaxed, as soon as the shooting began, he was stopped by Duke because of a mistake, and then several times in succession.

"Mr. Bell!"

After shouting again to stop. Duke warned heavily, "Crack your nerves!" ”

He pointed to the dozens of busy people in the studio, including lighting, props, makeup, and filming, and said, "Do you want us to relax with you all day?" ”

"I'm so sorry." Christian? Although Bell's personality is not very good, he is still relatively docile in front of Duke, and after apologizing, he said, "Can you give me ten minutes?" ”

"Rest for fifteen minutes!"

In this case, Duke must give time for Christian? Bell adjusts himself.

And after a brief adjustment, Bale's form has improved significantly, and with Lawrence? Fisberger's scene, after a test shooting, also started official filming smoothly.

Standing in front of the green screen, Christian? Bell vs. Lawrence? Fishburne said, "Is it beautiful?" Right? ”

Lucius played by Fishburne? Fawkes was a little surprised, as if this was something terrible, and he said with some anger, "It's beautiful, but it's immoral and dangerous." You've turned every phone in Gotham into a megaphone! ”

Christian? In Batman's tone, Bell said, "It's through a high-frequency transmitting receiving device. ”

Lawrence? Fisberg's face was serious, "You used my sonar principle, and you applied it to every mobile phone in this city. As long as half of your phones are the source of your sonar, you'll be able to spy on the whole of Gotham. ”

His voice was a little low, "But it's a mistake to do that." ”

"Lucius." Christian? Bell slowly clenched his hands with Batman's gloves, "I have to find the man, find the Joker." ”

"But at what cost?" Lawrence? Fishburne asked worriedly.

Christian? Bell was silent and did not answer him, and now Batman has no time to discuss these questions about morality and democracy.

After a while, he said, "This database is encrypted and only one person can access it." ”

Lawrence? Fishburne still frowned, "This power is too powerful for one person. ”

Not far away, Tina? Faye and Scarlett have been paying attention to the filming location in front of the camera, and the two of them are also nodding, obviously agreeing with Lawrence? Fishburne's lines, if in the real world, there really is someone who can listen to everything about them through a device, it is simply creepy.

Sitting behind the director's monitor, Duke thought of something else, that the country was far less democratic and monitored than he had advertised......

He shook his head, and his energy returned to the filming set.

Christian? Bell staring at Lawrence? Fishburne, "That's why I'm giving you this power, only you can use it." ”

Lawrence? Fishburne looked surprised, "Spying on 30 million people, that's not my job. ”

Christian? Bell didn't answer him, instead saying, "This is a sample of the Joker's voice, and if he speaks within range of any cell phone signal in the city, you can use it to confirm and locate it." ”

Think for a few seconds, Lawrence? "I can help you this time, but please take my following words as my resignation—I won't be here as long as this machine is at Wayne Enterprises." ”

Christian? Bell turned and walked outside, "When you're done, type in your name." ”

“cut！” Duke called out to stop, then said, "This one is over, touch up Bell's makeup, let's go shoot the next one." ”

The literary dramas filmed together actually have the same characteristics, that is, the intentions of the actors and the camera are very close, which will relatively reduce the difficulty of some performances and shooting.

The crew moved to another studio, waiting for Tina? Faye and Scarlett had a cup of coffee and found a filming location, Duke had already directed the crew to finish the preparations, and a new scene was about to start filming.

Several fake Batmans and the scarecrows from the previous film are tied up in a studio set up as a parking lot.

The scene is very simple, just a few lines of dialogue.

But in Tina? Faye and Scarlett? In Johnson's view, this simple play is an expression of a theme that is not simple.

The fake Batman's lines are a question to Batman - why do you have this right, and what do you think is the difference between you and us?

Batman's answer was that I don't wear a hockey chest guard.

Then, in silence, he turned his head and walked away.

"Why didn't he answer?"

After this scene, Scarlett suddenly asked, "Instead, she gave such an answer." ”

Although Batman satirizes the question's question in a humorous way, he doesn't answer the question directly, Tina? Fei saw it a little more clearly, "Because Batman was speechless about that question." ”

"Speechless?" Scarlett couldn't help but look at her strangely, "Why do you say that?" ”

"Quite simply, why does Batman have the power to break the law?" Tina? Faye's eyes turned to Duke's side, "I think that's what Duke wants to say. ”

Scarlett frowned, "Because Batman is a superhero, isn't he here to save the city?" Isn't he the embodiment of justice? Is Gotham's vigilante? ”

"My dear, who gave the volunteer police the right to enforce the law?" Tina? Fei said seriously, "Should superheroes be above the law?" (To be continued.) )
