Out of the hotel where Pai Duì was, the new black Rolls-Royce was already waiting at the door, and after Ryan and the two got into the car, the car slowly drove south.

Ryan didn't say much about Wonder Woman, and in his opinion, Tim? Burton handled it fairly well, and this typical model of superhero movies may not be a sensation, but it should not be a big problem to succeed and even recoup huge costs at the box office.

At least this "Wonder Woman" is no worse than "X-Men 3: Last Stand", which he also watched the sample film, and even slightly better, although the Greek gods appeared in it, but it was the setting of the original comics, and the main scenes were almost all set in New York and Washington, even if Princess Diana took off her star-striped suit, she was still fighting for the United States.

"It's still early." Ryan looked at his watch and asked Natalie next to him, "Shall we go home, or shall we?" ”

"Go to Universal Studios." Natalie pressed the communicator, said to the driver in front of her, and then looked at Ryan, "Let's go to visit Ban, where Scarlett is filming "Escape from Clone Island"." ”

This film, which carries the hopes of DreamWorks, has entered the final stage of filming, and Ryan has also heard Scarlett mention that after returning from the Detroit location, they will gather in the studio of Universal Studios for the final shoot about the clone base.

As one of the most famous studios in Hollywood, the studio area of Universal Studios is really a bit deserted compared to the tourist area, and more and more crews have left the city in recent years, and the studios in the Los Angeles area are not working enough.

In fact, not only Hollywood, but even the video companies in the San Fernando Valley are leaking out, and in California's latest regulations, when shooting those films. Condoms are mandatory, and sales of condom-based films are clearly declining.

As a result, many companies are moving to Las Vegas, and if this continues, the San Fernando Valley will lose its former reputation.

After changing to a battery car at the entrance of the studio, Ryan drove all the way through more than a dozen deserted studios, and finally saw the scene of people coming and going in the past.

The "Get Out of Clone Island" crew rented three huge studios here, and Ryan and Natalie walked into one of them under the guidance of the crew. All you see are scenes of futuristic clone bases, as well as a large number of extras in tight uniforms.

The crew seemed to be resting, and when Ryan walked to the rest area, Scarlett? Johnson was sitting in a chair, with Ivan next to him? McGregor chats.

"Hey, Ryan, and Nat."

"Long time no see, Ivan."

Scarlett just beckoned to the two, Ivan? McGregor stood up politely. He was very eye-catching, and after greeting Ryan a few words, he took the initiative to leave here.

"Aren't you working on a film with Kate and Sophia?"

After Ryan and the two sat down, Scarlett asked her assistant to bring coffee. Looking at Natalie, she said, "Why do you have time today?" ”

"After the Independence Day holiday, they went to Australia to check on the progress of the scene." Natalie handed Ryan the coffee first, and then took another cup. "I accompanied Ryan to a test session, and I stopped by to see you."

Then, Natalie took a closer look at Scarlett. "Honey, you're so sexy and pretty right now."

"And ......" Scarlett? Johnson's eyes turned from Ryan, and he suddenly took Natalie's hand, "Nat, why don't you ...... Let me be your girlfriend and then let's elope. ”

Hearing this, Ryan couldn't help but shake his head and laugh.

Natalie had just taken a sip of coffee and almost choked on her throat, glaring at the blonde girl opposite, "You better keep this kind of joke to Allison." ”

"Actually, we've already discussed it." Scarlett suddenly changed her strange tone, "What if...... Ahem, we're going to Africa, to a place that no one else can find, where there are lions, antelopes, cheetahs, and elephants, and it's romantic just to think about. ”

"Trust me, Scarlett."

These two guys have been getting used to it since they were children, and Ryan doesn't care about their crazy talk in private, "Three days at most, and you'll run back because you can't stand the hard life." ”

Ever since Scott? Swift and Melanie? After Sloan joined his team, Taylor and Scarlett's daily lives could only be described as rich and luxurious.

"We all have trust funds."

After Scarlett said this, she saw that Ryan was just laughing, and flattened her mouth and said, "Okay, I'll admit it, it's okay to visit a place like the African savannah once in a while, and if you live there, you can definitely make people crazy." ”

"Maybe you're not crazy yet." Natalie also made a few jokes, "It's eaten by lions or hyenas, oh...... Sexy Scarlett Sandwich ......"

"Would you like a bite?" Scarlett leaned in front of Natalie, "Nat! ”

The two women's laughter rang out.

It is only in front of these friends who have grown up together since childhood that Natalie will show the other side of her youthful and frank nature, such as some time ago, at Scarlett's house, she and Taylor had a big explosion of R&B on the jukebox......

In recent months, Natalie has not only undergone specialized bow and arrow training, but has also been working out and practicing a large number of set moves.

While Hollywood stars enjoy the glamorous, they also face unimaginable pressure, and there must always be a suitable way to vent, but unfortunately some people have made the wrong choice of alcoholism, drug abuse, promiscuity, etc.

About ten minutes later, filming resumed, and Ryan accompanied the excited Natalie to stand on the periphery to watch Michael? Bei commands and dispatches, and for Natalie, who aspires to become an excellent female director, she will not let go of any opportunity to learn.

However, Ryan was more interested in props than Natalie, such as the Nokia Concept Edition phone provided by advertisers, and some concept cars that cost up to two million dollars, which didn't seem to have been officially released since then, if he remembers correctly.

Of course, it may also be that in the previous life, they did not have access to high-end circles, and these luxury top products are not aimed at ordinary consumers.

Scarlett now? Johnson and Ivan? McGregor is a standard literary youth, and it seems easy to deal with the scenes in this movie, and Ryan also faintly sees Michael from the dialogue between the two of them and some scenes? Bei's thoughts don't seem to be much different from those in his previous life.

A director who is good at fast switching between explosions and MV-style short shots, it is destined to be a very terrifying thing to play with long shots and literary connotations.

Taking advantage of the gap between shooting, Ryan also talked to Michael? Bey talked a few words, and although the latter experienced the setback of "Pearl Harbor", he was still full of confidence, and he would not have turned back to the completely commercial route suitable for him without experiencing a painful lesson.

As for "Transformers", Ryan didn't mention it, after all, the other party hasn't finished his current work.

The script of this movie, on the premise that he provided a very brief outline, has already begun to write the script, and the general plot is still the story of a boy and his car, but under his instruction, Optimus Prime's appearance time will be as early as possible, and the rhythm of the foreshadowing will be slightly accelerated.

And in order to complement the sequels in the future, Optimus Prime's combat power will not be as good as in the previous life, and in the face of Megatron's vulnerability, the combat power of the two bosses is basically the same.

Also, Disney is also contacting the Pentagon to get the necessary support, although a team of American GIs to kill a Decepticon is very bloody, but for the sake of the North American box office, this kind of plot that North American audiences like to see will still appear.

To put it bluntly, this is just the most typical popcorn movie, and the producer will shoot whatever the audience thinks is cool.

After about an hour here, Ryan and Natalie left, after all, this is a busy crew.

"Is DreamWorks running out of water?" On the way back, Natalie asked curiously.

Staying by Ryan's side, she is also well-informed, and it is not surprising to see that DreamWorks is glamorous on the surface, but in fact it is full of internal crises.

"If it's just a financial issue...... Ryan shook his head at her, "Maybe it's easy to solve, but with DreamWorks' debt burden growing, David? Geffen, Jerever? The contradictions between Katzenberg and Stephen also began to sharpen. ”

The collapse of DreamWorks was not just because of debt, but also because of the sharp decline in the relationship between the Big Three.

Now DreamWorks is like a wooden ship with a big hole in the bottom, and the only tinker Stephen? Spielberg also began to have problems, and his films no longer guaranteed success for every one.

For example, "Happiness Terminal", which was released not long ago, even if it is Spielberg and Tom? Hanks plus Catherine? Zeta? Jones's combination only got $19.05 million at the box office in the first week, and now it has been more than ten days since its release, and the North American box office is only $40 million.

Perhaps all that is left in this movie is the classic movie line 'I've been waiting for my whole life, but I don't know who I'm waiting for'.

In contrast, "Superman's Family," which was released two weeks before the film, grossed nearly $250 million at the North American box office in one month.

As for "King Arthur", the weekly box office has slipped to about $3 million, and whether the North American box office can exceed $40 million is in big doubt.

Of course, the most successful film so far this year is still "Star Wars Prequel 3: Revenge of the Sith", after Independence Day, the film's North American box office has reached more than 390 million US dollars, and it will definitely become the first film to grossing more than 400 million in North America this year.

This film not only brought huge benefits to Lucasfilm and the distributor Twentieth Century Fox, but Ryan, as one of the leading actors, also benefited a lot. (To be continued......)
