~: Six hundred and thirteen - I'm threatening you

Popular recommendation:

Overall, Wayne's version of "The Flash", in terms of character or character, is closer to the characters in the comics.

In his impression, the first time he knew The Flash was because of a movie that disappeared because of his appearance, that is, the 1990 movie directed by Robert Yinskov. In his previous life, he had seen it on TV when he was a child, and he didn't leave much of an impression, but he vaguely remembered a scene where the Flash was chased by missiles fired by the enemy.

To the latter point, it is familiar to countless post-80s and post-90s generations on the other side of the Pacific Ocean, by cc. He still remembers the animation "Superman" series of cartoons broadcast by tv TV station. There is a picture of the Flash and Superman racing in it, which is also the most vivid picture for many people.

The various information about The Flash later comes from some comics he accidentally read one after another when he was a child.

Wayne remembered very clearly that in the "Justice League" he had seen, the character of the Flash Barry Allen was very different from that in the comics.

The Flash in the memory movie is lively, active, timid, socially inept, eccentric, and even a little neurotic. In the DC comics most familiar to the audience, the Flash is sunny, calm, gentle, considerate, high emotional intelligence, and very responsible.

It is precisely the character setting of The Flash in the comics that is more in line with Wayne's version of the script, a confident, steady, and knowledgeable on-site investigator.

The story of the movie was set quite simply by him. The main line is to introduce the birth of the Flash Barry Allen, which is actually more similar to the beginning of Marvel's "Iron Man" in memory. When Barry Allen was a teenager, his mother died in a bizarre horror accident, his father was wrongly identified as the murderer, and he was adopted by his father's detective friend.

When the child grows up, he becomes a csi witness analyst, and at the same time, he can use his career to constantly pursue the truth of his mother's death.

In the process, he traced various urban legends and various unknown advanced technologies. Then in an accident, Barry Allen was struck by mysterious lightning and began to notice changes in his body, thus becoming known as The Flash.

The story is not complicated, and even many DC fans can guess it, but in this film, Wayne arranged a lot of references to the superman plot of the later film in the form of dialogue with lines. And these things, only if they are arranged in The Flash, will not appear abrupt, because this character is always linked to the time travel, and it will be more persuasive to fans.

In addition to hinting the plot of Superman in some ways in the film, he will also add an Easter egg of an important superhero at the end of the film. If there are no accidents, his next DC movie will be this Easter egg character.

Therefore, Wayne would rather regard this "The Flash" as the "Hulk" in the Marvel plan in his mind. Making money is not the most important thing for this film, but more importantly, to be a lubricant. Introduce two more important follow-up superheroes, increase the audience's sense of expectation for those two more important superheroes, and even for "Justice League".

For this film, the manifestation of the superpowers of the Flash Barry Allen is the more difficult point for him to decide, and it is also the main reason why the script will continue to be revised.

Due to the popularity of The Flash, his super powers can be said to be well known, such as the super speed in the anime. The upper limit of his speed in the comics has always been unknown. When running, he can reach a thousand times the speed of light. Below the speed of sound, so as not to cause damage to the surrounding environment.

For example, a man-made tornado can run anywhere at high speed. For example, blurring can control the body at the atomic level, and achieve the effect of traversing the solid by vibrating the constituent particles of the body. Later in the comics, you can even bring other people to traverse the solid together.

For example, the famous self-healing factor, because his body structure and metabolism are different from ordinary people, so the wound healing speed is much faster than ordinary people. There are also more famous time travel, which has surpassed the speed of light to run through time and space and so on.

It looks like this guy, Barry Allen, is really too powerful? And not only is it powerful, but the effect of superpowers is simply heaven-defying.

Compared with the Flash in the comics, he still remembers the complaints of countless audiences about the movie version, that is, the Flash in the movie, the superpower is set too weak, and it does not match the well-known comics at all.

Moreover, in the movie, his ability is not only weak but also very single, and he is fast in performance. Even saving the hostages is only dragging away from the place, and he does not kill people when dealing with the enemy. In fact, everyone knows that as long as they have a speed that exceeds lightning, any enemy should be instantly killed in front of Barry Allen.

But not only was he injured by the soldier's laser gun, but the effect of the speed behind him was only to move the current quickly and charge the mother box to activate Superman.

In the movie, everything seemed too weak, but this was officially what Wayne wanted, so he hesitated to the end, and after all consideration, he still directly chose to weaken the Flash's superpower in the movie. The reason for balancing the combat power with other characters also takes into account many factors such as the difficulty of shooting and the cost of production.

"cut!"

On the set of The Flash, this is the fourth time Wayne has called to stop, and every time he tells James Franco that he can do better, but it doesn't seem to meet his standards every time, but he doesn't. Say what you want the protagonist to do.

"Ok, the scene of this opening scene has passed." When everyone subconsciously reset and adjusted the positions of the personnel and the machine state, the sound of Wayne shouting through sounded on the set. "Everyone has a temporary rest, so many plans in the morning, and continue to shoot in the afternoon."

Three cameras are shooting at the same time, one is always shooting James Franco kneeling on the ground, one is always shooting the panorama, and the other is constantly capturing the expressions and performances of several supporting characters.

After carefully watching the effects of the filming, Wayne finally nodded and directly announced the break. Because of the need for publicity, after the film crew officially started filming, Warner Bros. also organized a small media conference, held at the same location. In the open space in front of the Warners Studios soundstage.

Since the main actors of the crew are all wearing makeup, the only people who really need to be interviewed by the media are Wayne and Charles Rowan, which directly makes Wayne the focus of many media sieges.

Charles Rowan briefly introduced the shooting plan and the approximate expected completion time of the film, and then announced that he had entered the reporter's question-and-answer session.

As if there was a tacit understanding, the reporter of the "Los Angeles Times" was the first to be named. The middle-aged woman asked Wayne, who was sitting in the front, loudly: "Director Greenberg, can you talk about it? Why would you choose Barry Allen over Clark Kent, whom many fans have been waiting for?"

"Isn't the audience expecting a lot from The Flash? Hey man, I don't think so."

He shrugged at the reporter of the Los Angeles Times, and with a smile on his face, he joked first, and then continued into the microphone:

"In fact, the entire DC movie series has a strict planning and shooting sequence. Warner Bros. and DC Comics have gone through a lot of market research, collected a lot of audience opinions, and finally completed the entire sequence of the big plan. So, I'm just a Director, you must follow the established plan, and of course, the Flash Barry Allen's popularity is not low, isn't he?"

"Wayne, there's news that..."

As soon as he finished speaking, a reporter from The New Yorker immediately stood up impatiently and asked, "There has always been news that the entire DC series plan was designed and planned by you, can you tell me? After The Flash, which one will you continue to make?"

"My friend, I'm sorry."

Shaking his head at the reporter who was questioning, Wayne spread his hands. "You're right, I'm involved in the entire DC series of movie projects, but everything related is still under wraps, and Warner Bros. signed a strict nondisclosure agreement with me, so I can't answer your question, okay? Well, let's focus on The Flash, ok?"

When the open-air press conference started, countless reporters threw questions one by one in front of Wayne, and the overall atmosphere was quite harmonious, and everyone was also asking about information related to the film.

However, there will always be surprises, and there will always be people who want more exciting news. Just 20 minutes after the press conference started, a reporter wearing a work permit for the Chicago Sun-Times stood up and suddenly asked:

"Director Greenberg, can you talk about the fact that the actor was arrested by the Los Angeles Police Department twice in a row some time ago? What do you think of this?"

"Hey, am I not clear enough?" Charles Rowan frowned, and without waiting for Wayne to speak into the microphone, he looked directly at the reporter who asked the question and said, "Please ask about the topic related to the movie, otherwise Greene Director Berg will not answer, thank you."

Obviously, his warning was not taken into account by the reporter. The reporter from the "Chicago Sun" didn't even look at him, still staring at Wayne who was sitting in the front, and asked loudly: "Director Greenberg, I Think, things related to James Franco, the actor of the crew, are also related to the "Flash" movie. Can you talk about your views on the innocent people who were hurt by him..."

"f**k!"

Charles Rowan exclaimed in a low voice, stood up and waved his hand, motioning for the security personnel to come in and help take the unruly reporter away.

"It's okay, Charles."

Wayne patted his arm and stopped him from calling the security staff, then suddenly smiled and turned to look at the reporter who was still staring at him.

According to normal rules, this kind of press conference, which is similar to the launch conference, will not deliberately find fault with Ladu media regardless of its relationship with Warner Bros. .

Obviously, Warner Bros. is to promote the film in advance, and let fans who are looking forward to the film know through the media that the film has officially started shooting, and the countdown to the time they see the film on the big screen has entered.

And these reporters also get all kinds of information about the films they are interested in from the crew. After several years of continuous success of the DC series of films, especially the super explosion of "Batman: The Dark Knight", take No. 1 on the box-office list in the history of the next movie, any information related to it, do not worry that there are no fans to pay attention.

Both parties have a tacit understanding, which is the main theme of a normal press conference, and the sudden accident made the atmosphere at the press conference fall into embarrassment for a while.

The reporters sitting at the scene, seeing that Wayne seemed to be intentionally answering this question, all forgot their resentment towards the "Chicago Sun" colleagues just now. Eyeball news appears.

"First of all, since I went to the East some time ago to work on the premiere of the film "Batman: The Dark Knight" there, I also heard about what happened after the fact and didn't understand the whole process. ."

After careful consideration, Wayne faced the sound of Kacha Kacha at the scene and said to the microphone in front of him: "I always feel that no one can guarantee that such a ridiculous mistake will not be made, at least James Franco has been subjected to Punishment, and apologizing for the **** thing he did, and making amends, he has tried to do all he can.

As for the innocent people you said, they all chose to forgive James Franco afterwards. I believe that this incident has taught him enough lessons, so let me talk about this incident. My view My view is that everything is over, it's over, isover, ok? "

"Director Greenberg, can you interpret this as, are you supporting James Franco?" The reporter obviously wanted a more powerful answer, so he immediately asked again the moment he finished his answer.

Not only the reporter of the "Chicago Sun", but most of the reporters on the scene also hope that Wayne can fall into this simple and mindless trap.

James Franco, as the actor of the crew, if Wayne does not support him, it will inevitably lead to cracks in the cooperation between the two sides in the subsequent filming work. But if you choose to support him in the media, it means supporting a criminal who breaks into other people's bedrooms, robs, steals and threatens others, and then the entertainment news in the next few days will be fired.

"Well, listen, I don't want you to misinterpret my answer."

Wayne's eyes gradually sharpened, and the smile on his face slowly disappeared. He looked at the reporter who asked the question and said seriously: "I'm not reminding you, but threatening you, understand? How should I answer? , you'd better report how, otherwise, there will be a large number of the top lawyers in North America waiting for you."

"Mr. Greenberg, freedom of the press..."

"Shit." Charles Rowan didn't expect it to happen like this, he swears again, interrupts the reporter's last struggle to the microphone in front of him, and says loudly: "Substitute the question, the next question !"

The media conference finally returned to its original atmosphere, but Wayne didn't show a smile after that. After the conference was hastily ended, he didn't have any intention of taking photos from the media, and turned around and walked directly into the studio.
