Chapter 443: Height Gap (Ask for Subscription)
There's a trivia.
In the "Lightbringer" animated series, the general height of the magic robot is higher than that of the demon god robot in the "Dragon Fighter" animated series.
And it's a lot higher!
This is not only clearly marked in the original setting. In the plot of the animation, it is actually also reflected.
I don't know if you still remember, but in the animation "Dragon Fighter", there is a very iconic footage.
That is, Xiaodu and the Dragon God, take the Rainbow Bridge to the next realm......
In this iconic picture, it is not difficult to see that although the Dragon God is very powerful and domineering, its "height" is definitely an out-and-out hard injury.
In the setting, it's only about three meters.
Someone might ask!
Since the Dragon God is only so high, why is the space so wide when Xiaodu enters the Dragon God's body to control it?
"The Legend of the Fairy Tree"
Not......
Regarding this question, in fact, Gu Miao probably knows the answer.
As expected, the space inside the Dragon God, that is, the space where Xiao Du was controlling the Dragon God, was actually a "different dimension" space?
The Ryujin is the Ryujin in its body.
Since it is a dragon god, it is not very normal to create a different dimensional space in the robot's body, and there is air to supply Xiaodu!
From this point of view.
Although the Ryujin looks like a "robot", since the main body is a dragon god, this thing is not a "technological product", but a fantasy type of robot.
Anti-tourism messengers are different.
The Demon King of the Earth, summoned by the Earth using the Magic Gun and firing the Magic Emblem, is obviously ridiculously large in the animation.
Seven or eight meters should be there.
Otherwise, the "Six-Pointed Star Magic Array" diagram drawn on the ground when summoning the Demon King would not have such a large footprint.
So here's the problem......
Since the height difference between the two is so big, what kind of scene will it be for the Ryujin and the Earth Demon King to stand side by side?
The answer is obvious!
The Dragon God, who is only about three meters tall, stands next to the Earth Demon King, who starts at seven or eight meters tall, and feels like a "child" facing "Yao Min".
It can only be said that it is very abstract.
Whether it is a fan of "Dragon Fighter" or a fan of "Light Messenger", they are all in Bengbu when they see this scene.
But everyone can't complain yet.
Because everyone knows very well that the animation production team did not play the piano randomly, according to the basic setting data, the height difference between the two is this.
No way!
That's how short the Ryujin is......
I can only rejoice, fortunately, Wan Bao didn't make a more outrageous robot animation like "Neon Genesis Evangelion", otherwise as soon as the first machine came, the Demon King of the Earth would also become a "dwarf".
What? Ryujin?
How can you still see the Ryujin? A behemoth of dozens of meters appeared in the picture, and I am afraid that I have to sacrifice a "magnifying glass" to find the Dragon God in the corner of the screen.
In fact, Hou Bin did a good job.
At least in the theatrical version of the movie, he restored the height gap between the Ryujin and the Demon King of the Earth, and did not force the two robots to be the same height.
Let Guo Jinming and Yao Min play basketball together, although it looks weird, but there is an inexplicable sense of "harmony".
If Guo Jinming's height is forcibly pulled to the same style as Yao Min, it will look very weird and "dramatic".
The plot of the movie is very old-fashioned.
At least Hu Yingjun looked at it and felt that it was nothing more than that. It's nothing more than moving the "savior" theory of TV animation to the theater version and filming it again.
Of course, the advantage is the play part.
The Ryujin and the Demon King of the Earth, Xiaodu and the Earth, two saviors, and two protagonist robots, stand side by side against the Evil Lord and the Prince of the Evil Clan.
In the end, it became one and turned into the strongest magic dragon, which is still quite cool to watch.
"Worth the fare."
After walking out of the theater, Hu Yingjun, who was still unsatisfied, couldn't help but think.
Although it is a bit suspected of "selling toys", and the main plot line is also very old-fashioned and vulgar, at least the play is good, and the picture of Xiaodu fighting side by side with the earth can be regarded as fulfilling the dream of many fans.
From this point of view, this theatrical version should not be so unpopular.
Why is the box office so low?
……
Gu Miao, who was at the Feiyang Animation Hotel at No. 003 Animation Street in Wanbaoland, communicated and inspected the decoration of the wedding site, and received a message from Hou Bin.
"Oh? Has the box office exceeded 10 million? ”
"Not bad!"
After reading Hou Bin's report, Gu Miao replied with a smile: "Don't be proud, keep working hard!" ”
Where is this?
The movie was released for a week and a half, and the box office barely exceeded 10 million, which is a piece of compared to "The Snake Comes to Run" at the beginning of the year.
Of course, this comparison is inappropriate.
After all, the scale of investment is not of the same magnitude, coupled with the lack of publicity, it is a bit of a bully to compare "Snake to Run" with this linkage theater version.
In all fairness.
This box office result is already very unexpected, and according to this box office trend, it is expected that it will be able to save about 10 million by the time of the next release.
That adds up to 20 million.
Rounding up, the film has recouped almost two-thirds of its investment cost. If you count the follow-up DVD, BD, TV platform and online on-demand revenue, it can be said that it has been earned.
That's not the point, though.
Whether it is 20 million or 200 million at the box office, Gu Miao feels that it doesn't matter.
For Armageddon! For the linkage theatrical version of "Dragon Fighter X-ray Energy Messenger", the most important thing is undoubtedly the sales of "peripheral derivatives".
In this regard, Hou Bin handed over an answer sheet that was enough to make the whole company pay attention.
Within 10 days of the film's release, the cumulative sales of its peripheral derivatives exceeded 47 million yuan. Among them, the main promotion of the [Magic Dragon] assembled model toy, the sales volume has exceeded 1 million copies.
"It has to be a derivative......
When Gu Miao saw this, he had actually unloaded the big stone in his heart.
The fact that the toys are selling so well shows that this theatrical version has been a success, and it is an unprecedented success.
In that case, he is still worried about a hammer? Hurry up and do the wedding, and take the whole company out to travel!
Speaking of which......
Gu Miao turned her head to look at the person in charge of the hotel on the side, and said with a calm face: "I am always good brothers with you Xiong, and I came to your hotel to hold a wedding to save your face, and it would be too much to collect money, right?" ”
"Gu ...... Mr. Gu! ”
The person in charge of the hotel had a bitter face and quickly explained: "The venue is free to use, which is already the greatest sincerity we can give." This ingredient also let us out, we really can't afford to lose! ”
"Huh! Stingy! ”
After a sigh, Gu Miao pouted and said, "Okay, okay, I'll pay for the ingredients, and you are in charge of the chef and the wine part, no problem, right?" ”
"I ...... I'll report back! ”
The person in charge turned around and left sweatingly, planning to call his boss and cry about Gu Papi's harsh requirements.
Xiong always asked him to give him a discount.
But Gu peeled the skin inch by inch, this is no longer asking for discounts, but forcing good people to become prostitutes. How dare he, a small hotel manager, agree?
