~: Seven hundred and seventy-six - the one that best suits your taste

"George, what do you think of Wayne's adventure."

In the screening room of the Chinese Theater in Hollywood, Steven Spielberg looked at his friend George Lucas with a tangled expression on his face, and said in a low voice, "If I were Wayne, I would never have been in the past few years. If you can touch the character of Wonder Woman, even if you can't get around it, at most you will only appear in the form of a cameo, and shooting this character now is not cost-effective."

Due to the generous investment of Warner Bros. today, many guests were invited. The two simply said hello to Wayne and followed the staff to the seat reserved by the organizer.

"There are so many great characters that DC can shoot, there is absolutely no need for him to rush to take the risk of making this female film." Steven Spielberg shook his head, despite the anticipation surrounding the film, he still did not Not too optimistic about this adventure.

As he said, considering the combined identity of a producer and director, the best choice at this time is to take advantage of the popularity of DC's burning in the past few years to make the popular bomb "Superman" in one go. .

In today's Hollywood film market, DC can be said to be the dominant player, occupying almost 99% of the market in related fields.

Why not take advantage of this "monopoly" market boom and throw the popular nuclear bomb of "Superman" as soon as possible? Leaving aside all other factors, no matter how brilliantly you shoot other DC characters, there is a high probability that it will not be as good as a badly shot "Superman" in the market.

Whether it's from the director's point of view, or from the perspective of a macro-series producer, there must be some insurance. Now that my family is the only one, I will firstly cultivate their habit of watching DC movies while global movie fans have no choice.

Hollywood's decades of experience are here. As long as such a movie-watching habit is developed, then even if you shoot the inconspicuous little people in DC after this, you will still be driven by movie-watching habits, and the box office results will be almost the same. where to go.

"From what I know about Wayne."

After thinking for a while, George Lucas subconsciously looked towards the front row of the screening room, where a large number of guests took advantage of the gap before the screening to chat with Wayne and other crew members.

"He seems to be in a hurry. This feeling is not good, or it may be my illusion. His performance this year is as if he wants to drive "Justice League" forward as soon as possible, full of urgency."

George Lucas organized the language, facing the suspicious eyes of his friend, and explained: "Look, Wayne and you, the two of you are the most famous fast shooters in Hollywood, don't tell me that there are other shooters than you. Fast directors, those people, can't compare to the two of you at all.

The reason why I mention this is because you found that, even for well-known fast shooters like you, if you want to ensure the success rate and the quality of the film, the fastest is the rhythm of one a year. "

Listening to his friend's words, Steven Spielberg nodded slightly. He very much agrees with this, and to put it bluntly, of all the fast-moving directors in Hollywood, he and Wayne are the highest personal achievements, and it is almost difficult for other people to compare with them. …

After all, the scale of the project directed by him and Wayne is here. This is not a small-cost independent art film, but a large project with an investment of hundreds of millions.

For a big production like this, Hollywood has a complete and complex industrial system, and it is basically impossible to go faster. Of course, what I said here is almost impossible to be faster, because the premise of fully guaranteeing the quality of the film.

For now, even if Steven Spielberg doesn’t feel like he’s old, he’s still full of energy, and he’s still occasionally exhausted by the frequency of making a movie a year.

".However, Wayne is still compressing his work efficiency, he is acting like a robot and doesn't know how tired. As far as I know, "Wonder Woman" has just finished post-production, and he got into "Wonder Woman" The crew of Superman.

Obviously, he is in a hurry. He wants to make "Superman" before this year, and even wants to release "Superman" this year!

It's like... uh. like something is driving him to work like crazy. You and I both know what Wayne is like, and it's fine to say he's a workaholic, but he also likes to enjoy everything young people like, like pretty girls.

Not only is he working frantically, but also hundreds of professional veterans in various industries in the industry are revolving around his work. This is also the only way that it is possible to produce two top-level productions in a row in a little more than a year. "

"That's right."

Steven Spielberg smiled and nodded. "Wayne's performance now is even more urgent than Warner Bros."

The two looked at each other, as if seeing the same guess in each other's eyes, but at the same time they both fell silent. Even Steven Spielberg never mentioned his previous doubts.

Time passed by, and slowly, all the seats in the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood were filled. Sitting in the front row are the main creator of the crew and the relevant staff of Warner Bros. A few rows later, there are many platform guests from the industry, as well as colleagues.

The location near the center is almost full of film critics and representatives of media reporters. Behind them are the ordinary movie fans with the largest proportion. More than 2,000 seats were filled and filled to the brim. In terms of influence, this "Wonder Woman" attracted the attention of people from all walks of life.

Gradually, the chatter in the auditorium dropped, and the lights on the ceiling went out one by one. Everyone knows that this controversial film is about to start.

At the same time, there are 3,200 advance screenings of "Wonder Woman" in commercial theaters in major North American cities. And after today's premiere, regardless of the film's reputation and performance, when tomorrow comes Friday, the film will also land in 3,950 theaters in North America, and simultaneously start a large-scale release.

For a highly anticipated movie, there will always be fans who can't wait to see it in advance, so the early attendance rate of "Wonder Woman" is not low.

The mainstream commercial theaters in the local Santa Monica Plaza, Burbank, Beverly and other places in Los Angeles have been full before the movie officially started. …

Interesting phenomena are still happening. According to the information given by theaters around the world, among the fans of "Wonder Woman" in advance, the proportion of female fans has reached more than 60%. This is undoubtedly a strange phenomenon. .

"I'm never worried about the box office in the first few days of a movie, not even in the opening weekend"

After the lights in the projection hall of the Chinese Theater in Hollywood went out, Wayne and Naomi Watts next to him whispered. "For this film, whether the box office trend can be strong and lasting is the key to the success of the film."

"what?"

The Australian girl apparently didn't hear what he was muttering, and waited intently for the movie to start.

"Nothing." Wayne smiled and shook his head. "Let's watch a movie. This movie may be the one that suits your taste best in my directorial career."

Naomi Watts has never liked Wayne's movies, as almost all of their friends know. She personally participated in the earliest Wayne films, especially those cruel scenes, plot designs that play with people's hearts, and production concepts that test human nature, all of which could not bring a comfortable viewing experience to Australian girls.

And this "Wonder Woman" is different. First of all, the protagonist is definitely a woman. Second, in terms of the overall development of the story, in this film from Wayne's hand, he is very reluctant to do too much with the original painting in his memory. Change, after all, from a certain point of view, the original painting in my memory is already the top.

Therefore, this "Wonder Woman" will undoubtedly be more suitable for the general public in terms of audience tastes.

Over the past few years, Wayne has actually been trying his best to avoid one thing, and that is the risk of high-opening and low-going box office performance in DC superhero movies.

And driving him to make the current choice to make "Wonder Woman" one step ahead of "Superman" actually has this consideration.

When people think of superhero movies these days, the first words that come to mind are DC, Wayne Greenberg, Batman Bruce Wayne and so on.

But in Wayne, I remember very clearly that the biggest problem of DC superhero movies is that they can often rely on their super popularity to achieve dazzling box office results at the beginning of the movie's release. Then because of various word-of-mouth problems, the box office performance plummeted.

In fact, even after more than ten years, most ordinary people know psychologically that Marvel superheroes are far less popular than DC superheroes. But when both were turned into movies and put on the big screen, they often achieved the opposite.

With world-renowned characters such as Superman, Batman, and The Flash, it can even be said that DC does not lack the foundation of successful super popularity.

In fact, even the well-known failures of "Superman Returns" and other films, in fact, the attendance rate in the week before the start is not low. Including dress-up shows like "Batman and Robin", there is still a large number of fans at the beginning of the release.

But the coincidence is here, regardless of the reasons behind the films, from the point of view of a normal person, these films undoubtedly seem to have hit the virus. No matter how good the opening is, inexplicable things will happen, causing the film's reputation among fans to drop significantly. …

"What a nice view."

Naomi Watts raised her arm and nudged Wayne lightly with her elbow. She didn't want to leave the big screen, tilted her head, and murmured in his ear: "It's unbelievable, Wayne. Well. If we are not busy in the future, let's take little Fendi here for vacation. "

Suddenly regaining his senses, Wayne glanced at the big screen and nodded lightly. "Okay, I'll take you on vacation then."

The movie has officially started. After Warner Bros.’s decades-long title animation ended, the first long-range shot that appeared, aroused a burst of low-pitched sighs in the cinema hall. Not only Naomi Watts, but almost all the audience, felt what is called the beauty of heaven.

"God, it's so beautiful that I'm suffocating"

"Is this heaven?"

“Stunning view!”

That's right, all the hard work Wayne and others put into Italy paid off in the very first scene. In particular, the Paradise Island under the long-range lens is basically no different from the magical scene that most people imagine.

The rhythm at the beginning of the story is not slow, especially the account of Diana Prince's origin.

Diana Prince has lived on an isolated paradise island since she was a child. There is no man here. The story is clearly told to all the audience at the beginning of the story. Here, there are only those **** long-legged Amazon female warriors on the screen.

"Hey, Wayne, is the name Paradise Island because it's a man's paradise? Hahahaha."

On the big screen, the young Diana Prince was secretly watching the training of the female warriors. Naomi Watts suddenly turned her head, her bright eyes widened, and she laughed at the man: "Now, fans all over the world know your aesthetics. A slender model with long legs, A slightly delicate and soft face, tsk tsk."

Facing the woman's ridicule, Wayne shrugged and didn't say anything, and he focused his attention on the big screen.

Undoubtedly, casting director Schwartz focused on Wayne's aesthetics when selecting the female samurai actors of Paradise Island.

But in Wayne's view, this is the aesthetic that most normal men should have. As for that bomb-like figure, I am afraid that only a few North American men can appreciate it. The long legs that fill the screen are the most effective means of attracting the attention of moviegoers, isn't it?

The movie continues to explain the growing environment of little Diana. As the queen of the entire ethnic group, that is, Diana's mother, she did not want her daughter to be exposed to these at first.

But little Diana's aunt, Antiope, secretly trained her fighting skills and taught her everything. When the matter was discovered by the Amazon queen Hippolyta, the two finally decided to start the cruelest training for Diana after some communication.

Because she is the only one who can fight against the evil **** of war Ares, she is the hope to protect mankind, and the potential mission in her does not allow her to continue to hide in the arms of her mother.

As time passed, Diana Prince, who was a child, grew into a big girl in the blink of an eye.

During a training session with her aunt Antiope, Diana Prince inadvertently knocked him out. It was only then that he suddenly discovered that it seemed that his body had always contained some mysterious and incomparably powerful power, which was different from all other Amazon female warriors.

The movie is here, and all the foreshadowing in the early stage is really completed.

In fact, Wayne is already trying his best to speed up the rhythm of this paragraph. As a person who is used to the rhythm of the movie more than ten years later, he knows better than anyone that the long foreshadowing is equivalent to killing the patience of the fans.

Fortunately, the beautiful scenery that appeared in the early stage of the movie, the **** and powerful Amazonian female warrior, all kinds of elements supported the beginning of this paragraph, so as not to make the fans sitting in the theater feel bored.

Next, the story officially entered the theme. Diana Prince's peaceful life will be shattered when an old-fashioned plane crashes into the waters off Paradise Island.
