Chapter 445: One More Time?

On the big screen, the plot has entered a critical point, Bruce? Unwilling to lynch someone, even if he was a criminal, without trial, Wayne fights the ninja group in the training hall.

There is no problem with this plot from editing to rhythm, but there are still many flaws, the first point is naturally that the fighting action is very average, Christopher is still not good at it after all, and the other point is that the previous foreshadowing is too long. Christopher and editor David? Goyer's idea is not wrong, if you want to build a more realistic Batman, you must amplify his fear and hesitation, and at the same time explain the reason for this, so that the mastery of the rhythm of foreshadowing needs to be quite hot.

Maybe Christopher hasn't reached it yet, or maybe it's because he is still restricted by the producer, so even if there are emotions and actions in the first 30 minutes, it still inevitably gives people a bit of a dull feeling. And Sean also knew that this faint, but not going away, dullness, would last for 30 minutes, even if Bruce? Wayne has returned from his studies, and it will still take time to officially appear as Batman.

Thinking of this, Sean can also understand Christopher's distress, sometimes it's like this, according to the words of the previous life, it is impossible to have both fish and bear's paws, in the face of this situation, it is not easy to show Batman's mental journey and take into account the rhythm of the plot. Even if Spielberg comes, he may be able to do better, but it is not necessarily how good it can be.

Anyway, even if there are some flaws, this is still a qualified super-impact movie, and Christopher handed in a satisfactory answer. So after a few thoughts, Sean quickly turned his attention to something else, the things he had said to himself when he entered the movie theater before.

Nothing special, Christopher wants him to continue to play the lead role in his new film, which is a science fiction film set in the 18th century, and Sean, who knows Christopher, knows which movie it will be as soon as he hears it. He hopes that he can play the twin magicians in it, who can give everything for the magic, and even let the two of them live the life of one person.

Jonathan had conceived the idea two or three years ago, and if he hadn't taken over the Batman prequel series, the brothers would probably have been making the film. However, it is not bad to take over the Batman prequel, if the series can be brought to life and Christopher's fame can be further developed, and the film can be reproduced to attract more investment and be made better.

And the original history is indeed like this, "Time to War" was widely praised after its release, and Warner and Legend were very supportive of Christopher, so they started filming this movie in early January 06. But now because of Sean's turmoil, the movie has been postponed, and the new movie, which was originally preliminarily negotiated with Warner, has also been temporarily shelved, so even the actors have not been selected yet, and if you want to start filming, it will take at least a few months to prepare.

But that's not the point, the point is that Sean has promised another famous director to play the lead actor in his film, and that movie is a musical show.

Sean has never forgotten Frederick's grinning, somewhat painful and unwilling appearance when he held this script: "You want a script that has both word-of-mouth and box office, and there is one here, and the other party is very optimistic about you." ”

The script is called ...... "Sweeney Todd," and the person who intended to make him was the director of the first Batman movie in the 80s, known for his gothic style, Johnny? Depp's good friend Tim? Berg. And the reason why he came to Sean with this script was because he watched Sean's opera, well, to be exact, an opera that was pitifully small and not many people watched.

When I was with Kate, Sean talked to her a lot about stage plays, and I also performed stage plays in high school, so sometimes I would think about trying it. Originally, this idea was not strong, but after that case, although he still maintained a vague contact with Kate, and he couldn't talk to her much on the set of "Babel", at least he could see it.

So Sean thought that maybe he could look at her in the same way that he often collaborated on movies, but the right movies are not so easy to find, so co-op stage plays may be a good alternative. It didn't take much time anyway, and under Sanders's operation, he took time out to get in touch with a few small theater troupes in Los Angeles when he came back from Morocco to record songs.

Many well-known actors will go to some theater troupes to perform some stage plays in their spare time, maybe to hone their acting skills, maybe for others, who knows? In short, these troupes also welcome cameos from film actors. Sean tried his hand at acting in one of them, and he also tried his hand at opera, and he sang anyway, so it wasn't a big deal to attend rehearsals without affecting the troupe's performance.

Originally, it was nothing like this, but no one expected that when the troupe was rehearsing, there would be people watching it below. Well, it doesn't matter if someone watches the rehearsal, this kind of thing is normal, and the people watching may be able to give some good opinions, but Sean didn't expect that there would be Tim among the two or three people who watched? Burton.

So before that, he quickly contacted Frederick, hoping that Sean would play the male lead in his new work, an operatic film about a barber's revenge.

"Your acting skills are very good, Sean, I have seen your works, and I have learned about your personality, and many directors have praised you. Secondly, you sing well, although there is a big difference between opera and pop music, but this is not a problem, and the songs in the movie don't have to be sung as well as in the opera. Finally, and most crucially, your case can give you a deeper understanding of the character's feelings. At the time of Sean's interview with Burton, the middle-aged man, who had a beard most of the time and was not very trim, said him.

Obviously, the last one is the main reason why Burton gave up his partner Depp, who he has been working with, and turned to Sean

This makes Sean cry and laugh, because he was wronged and almost convicted, so he can better understand the feelings of the wronged character? At the time, he didn't think that until a few minutes ago, after being invited by Christopher for the same reason - in that story, the twin brothers fought each other and framed each other for a conflict with another magician, so the more rebellious of the twins fell into a trap and was accused of murder and sentenced to death.

Well, because of a case, I have become a sought-after commodity, should I celebrate this or should I find a magic stick to exorcise myself and eliminate bad luck?

It's better to put it aside, because Burton was invited in advance, and Sean was interested in working with more directors, so he agreed, and in the past few days, he has begun to let Sanders prepare for him to practice opera, all aspects of things.

Unexpectedly, Christopher has sent out another invitation now, and this movie is obviously not to be missed, Sean is a little embarrassed. Although he knew about the other party's movie about magicians, he forgot when it was made, and even thought that it was after the Batman prequel trilogy, or after the second part, so he had the current dilemma.

Hell, are you going to act in three movies in a row? Sean sighed secretly in his heart, he didn't want to give up these two movies, it was really embarrassing.

Forget it, let's talk about it later, and then make a judgment after getting the specific schedules of the two movies, as long as the conflict is not very strong...... Continuous shooting is continuous shooting. Sean said to himself in his heart.

At this time, the plot on the screen finally developed to the first meeting between Batman and Rachel, yes, is it Batman and not Bruce? Wayne.

Rachel, who is an assistant prosecutor, threatens the mob boss with an investigation, so he decides to get rid of her as a warning, and then finally meets her in official attire after encountering two killers under the platform of the Circus train.

Sean feels that he is doing a good job in this paragraph, because Batman has been acting with a mask for a long time, he has always maintained his faith in the dark, and has never killed anyone with his own hands, so his gaze must be firm and powerful.

When Burton directed Batman in the 80s, he chose the little-known Michael? Keaton came to play him, just to take a fancy to his eyes. Facts have also proved that Keaton has lived up to his trust, and critics have praised him after the movie came out, he is the best candidate to play Batman, and then take over the baton? Kilmer and George? Clooney can't beat that either.

But in Sean's opinion, he is not much worse than Keaton - well, some things are actually very subjective, and once you have a preconceived idea, you can be a little biased when you look at anything else, and Sean is like that, and so are the critics. It can be said that if the first Batman had been played by Kimmer or Clooney, as long as the movie was successful, critics would probably say the same.

So, no matter how Shaun feels good, we'll have to wait for tomorrow's review to be sure how it will work. However, Katie's performance should receive a lot of praise, after all, her role is original, and she is really in place, especially when she wears an assistant costume in a ponytail, she looks capable and temperamental, and a little cute, and will definitely be accepted by the audience, Sean can't help but want to find a time for her to wear this outfit to try.

He looked at Katie, who was in the back row, in the third place on the left, wearing a black loose evening dress, much more rounded than a little over a month ago, but her belly was not bulging significantly. It is precisely because of this that she will come to the premiere, otherwise she would have been hiding a long time ago, Rao is so, because she is afraid of being seen something, she and Sean have not said anything superfluous.

Of course, Sean doesn't care about this, as long as Katie raises the baby with peace of mind, and then gives birth to the child in her womb smoothly and low-key, everything is not a problem. He wished it was a girl, presumably because he saw Kate? The little guy in the Beckinsale family, he wanted to be a girl, and ...... He felt that Katie should have a girl.
