The Best Director - Chapter 495

Chapter 495 Magic with Unique Flavor

“You will never understand why we become magic. The audience knows the truth. The world is actually very simple and sad, and it is true from beginning to end. But if you can deceive them, even if only one second, then , You can amaze them. Then you can … you can see something very special. Do you really not know? That is the expression on their faces. “

“Never debunk the mystery. They will beg you and flatter you. Once you say it, you will have no value. Understand? The penny is not worth it. The secret of magic is nothing great, the skill of changing magic is important.”

The movie theater under the night was brightly lit, and the audience in the “Deadly Magic” screening hall was full. Everyone looked at the story on the big screen. Most people watched the whole story, and not many people yawned. Obviously Nolan This magic of the brothers can’t bluff everyone, not every audience is amazed.

Over time, the film has been screened one after another. If you look at it with a super-fast lens, the seats in the auditorium will be empty for a while, and the audience will be sitting sporadically, and it will be full again … …

“How? What do the critics say?”, “How much? Is its box office okay?” …

Regarding the evaluation response and box office of “Fatal Magic”, Warner Brothers is more concerned than the flame movie. Allen-f Horn and others have good reasons to do so. Maybe flame can withstand the first failure, end the unprecedented miracle, and fall down. ; But the Warner Brothers can’t bear it! That **** Darren Aronovsky left behind a big mess. Does “The Dark Knight” want to enlarge the mess?

If Wang Yang did not intervene, Warner Bros. ’s follow-up strategy to “Wartime” is this: There is no sequel. After a few years, I will find a new team to make a new series, just like “Superman Returns”. Now it has become difficult to ride a tiger. Although they have determined to believe Wang Yang and Nolan with their daring daring, the transcript of “Fatal Magic” is very critical. It is like Midway.

Looking at its freshly released record data, Horne’s face was uncertain, and no other Warner executives had frowned. On the contrary, most people frowned slightly. Why did they choose Nolan? The magical Yang is really not reassuring!

Freshness of Rotten Tomatoes public critics 76! It seems good, but the freshness of famous film critics is only 59, and this decay has become a lingering worry in their hearts. Although Roger Albert of the Chicago Sun Times scored 34 points, and praised: “This is a very unique, fascinating, almost devilish movie.” “Los Angeles Times” Kenneth Turan also played 45, praising: “Enthusiastic and unique entertainment.”

But what Warner wants most is the mainstream, not unique, but the more mainstream the better!

However, many mainstream media including “The Hollywood Reporter”, “New York Observer”, and the Associated Press criticized it, and Rex Reed said: “The suspense and cleverness of this movie is more annoying and pretentious. “Stephen Qu said:” Unfortunately, the script is too much for his own liking. “Stephen Weah said:” The Nolan brothers’ pretense creates a chaotic madness. “Mick Russell said:” Director Noah Lan has no problems in achieving public success with the charm of magic and tricks, but when he takes over a mainstream theme, these will become terrible. “…

ng, ved, ng … These comments undoubtedly show that they dismissed “Fatal Magic”. If the so-called suspense relies on deliberately arranging the timing, the intention is to make people confused and confused. The whole movie is chaotic. What’s so great about this magic technique? For them, the Nolan brothers became a crappy magic.

Mainstream theme! This is what Warner Brothers seniors are afraid of. If the brothers use the structure of “Memory Fragment” and “Fatal Magic”, and then use the literature and art of “Mr. Hughes” to shoot “The Dark Knight”, the consequences will be unimaginable!

Perhaps it ’s worth being slightly relieved that at least the fans of the fans were “deceived”. They were very satisfied with the performance of the Nolan brothers. Rotten Tomatoes liked it up to 90, and imdb scored 8.4!

“This is a masterpiece, full of emotions, twists and turns.” Pv hit five stars; “It’s just a little better than” Magic “. I didn’t understand it. I had to ask others.” Caitlin- G played four and a half stars; “Although it’s a little unnecessary confusion, but it may be Christopher Nolan’s most amazing movie to date, it doesn’t prevent it from being exciting and great.” Ethan-k played four stars ; Andrew-r scored five stars: “Perfect and flawless! This movie is awe-inspiring. But it is like a detective novel, you must pay attention to all the clues, maybe you need to watch twice like me.” …

From the first day of the film’s release, the Nolan brothers are in a very excited and nervous mood, each film is carefully crafted, and “Fatal Magic” is their full-time narrative skills operation, the operation of the flame film It is also impeccable, so there is no excuse for the film’s performance.

The praises of the audience and the critics made them happy, and those criticisms hurt them, especially today, when the Rotten Tomatoes Index has become an important indicator, well-known movie critics have failed! No one dislikes being recognized. The authority of the mainstream media makes it very important. The evaluation scale quietly falls to the “somewhat bad” side. It is not ideal anyway. After all, it is necessary to completely achieve “There are so many viewers.” Like, who cares about the hundreds of film critics is difficult, after all, the Nolan brothers are proud.

In this regard, Wang Yang and the Nolan brothers had a video conference conversation. If there is no magic and tricks, it is not “Fatal Magic”. This cannot be regarded as a failure. It can only be said that you can never satisfy everyone.

“You don’t need to worry about anything, make” Dark Knight “well! There is no pressure on Warner Brothers, you know? Of course, the messy narrative structure is about to stop, don’t you want to be crazy about the world’s audience Magic? “

Wang Yang encouraged to appease the injured hearts of the two, but it was n’t just an injustice. Compared to “Memory Fragment”, “Deadly Magic” did appear to be chaotic, showing signs of getting out of the way, just as the film ’s magician pursued the magic effect. Regardless of everything, he told them that the pursuit of mystery, suspense and uniqueness can be started from other aspects, such as the structure of the story itself, rather than just the chronological structure of the story, too many stories themselves are very charming, just like “Sleep” science”.

After listening to Wang Yang’s words and the insights brought by “Deadly Magic”, Nolan fell into another deep thinking, the balance between art and business was not enough, self-interest and public hobby, story itself and narrative timing …

“By the way, Young, I know that Flame recently purchased the right to adapt a Japanese cartoon” Red Pepper. “In the conversation, Nolan opened the topic.

“Red Chili” (ka, free translation detective) is a 2d science fiction suspense animated film, based on the 1993 novel of the same name by the famous Japanese science fiction novelist Kakuro Tsujii, about the psychotherapist Chiba Atsuko and the talented scientist Shi Tianhao. An instrument called “-” has been developed, which allows a psychotherapist to enter the patient’s dream world. By constructing and changing the patient’s dream, and thus changing his subconscious mind, it is quite effective in psychotherapy.

Unexpectedly, one day, suddenly, it was stolen by someone, and Chiba Dunzi was afraid that the inmate would use it to commit crimes, so he launched an investigation. However, the relevant personnel of this research began to be crazy by dreams that interfered with the actual behavior, and Dunzi was also calculated. She is not an ordinary person, so “Stealing Dream Detective Red Pepper” and the “-” to destroy the dream-stealing terrorists launched a fierce struggle …

“Dream Detective” is directed by animation director Jin Min and invested in and produced by the Mad House Company. It was painted in Japan last month. However, it has participated in many film festivals worldwide and has been well received. It is the best film of this year ’s Venice Film Festival. One of the nominations.

Flame Movies has always expressed great interest in Japanese anime. When Wang Yang went to Japan for publicity last year, he clearly stated that he had the opportunity to adapt excellent anime on the big screen. Since the opening of the Venice Film, “The Detective of the Thieves” was noticed by Flame. Wang Yang clearly ordered to buy the adapted version of it, sss level! If it were not for the invested Sony to hold the North American distribution rights, the flame would naturally not be let go, but Sony also caused certain difficulties in the process of purchasing the adaptation rights.

Fortunately, the copyright belongs to the lunatic asylum, and Miracle Young did not appear in Water City; at the same time, it is rare for 2D animation to adapt Hollywood blockbuster, even if it is an epoch-making comic project “Dragon Ball”, it is very uncertain, such as “Dream Detective” What is the potential of live-action movies for animations that cannot be sold in Japan? neither knows. Despite this, ff took some effort and reached some distribution cooperation agreements with Sony, only to finalize the contract to be signed.

Recently, the media fans have learned the news that has been circulated. Because Miracle Yang has nothing to say, this matter is very low-key in North America. It is just that some **** flame fans are looking forward to and excited. This theme is very interesting.

“Yes, are you interested in directing it?” Wang Yang asked. When he saw “Sleep Science” at Sundance at the beginning of the year, he recommended it to the Nolan brothers. At that time, Nolan said that he was very interested in dreams. I also want to make a movie about the theme of dreams, but some thoughts are always hazy. Nolan said: “I like mysterious suspense such as dreams, it seems that it is not your plan?” Wang Yang shrugged: “I have other plans.”

There are too many plans for the subject matter he intends to shoot. The next 3d film is about “mystery”, but it is not a dream.

In fact, the theme of such dreams is not new in novels, comics, etc. In the film, “Comprehensive Memories”, “Invading Brain Cells” (pediatric female doctors cure the trauma of young patients by manipulating dreams, and assist the police to solve the case), “Sleep Science also has a whole lot; the relationship between “Invasion of Brain Cells”, “Dreaming Dream Space” and “Dream Detective” is like “Matrix” and “Ghost in the Shell”.

Now that Flame Movies has acquired the adaptation rights of “Dreaming Detective”, it can be made into a detective and action-solving thriller suspense sci-fi series step by step. Make it the most suitable person for realizing it.

But it’s too early to talk about these, Wang Yang revealed to the Nolan brothers that Flame will not start this project soon, because the time has not arrived, and the production tables in the next few years will be very full, so the current They made “The Dark Knight”, and the dreams should be brewed first, maybe there will be other ideas.

“‘Fame’ ascended the summit, and ‘The Birth of Christ’ performed moderately”-m.net, when December 1-7 passed, the senior Warner Brothers breathed a little relief, even though “Fatal Magic” was smashed by the mainstream media A lot of rotten tomatoes, but in terms of box office, the flame movie still tenaciously has not been ended miracle!

“Fatal Magic” received 35.76 million box offices in 2879 North American theaters, with an average single room of $ 12,422. The performance in the first week was almost the same as that of “32.36 million” “Magic”. It successfully won the North American Weekly Box Office Champion ~ www.mtlnovel.com ~ Naturally, it cannot be a box office bomb movie, but it is not too difficult to collect about 80 million in North America and around 150 million in the world. With considerable post-sales revenue, look at its 40 million production costs. No wonder Brandon Gray of m.net described it as “the perfect magic of flames”.

The new line of film is not so good luck and screwed up again! It is useless to move out of the Virgin Mary. The long-time propaganda of “The Birth of Christ” only took 10.19 million box offices at 3083 theaters. The rotten tomato index is 385374. Do n’t say anything that became the stupid words of “The Passion of Jesus”, lose one. Big money is a foregone conclusion!

But because of the presence of the Virgin Mary, Brandon Gray reported more attention to the use of words, especially the use of meek to describe its average performance of $ 3,306 per room (mean and gentle), not even weak (weak); average The “Nightmare in the Jungle” and “King of Repeating Grade 2” for $ 2,892 and $ 1,497 in a single museum are called ble (insignificant).

It is getting closer and closer to the No. 14 nominated by the 64th Golden Globe Awards this year and No. 22 on the main battlefield of the Christmas file. Under a busy and tense pace, the “Dead” has been completed as scheduled in early December, and the production cost has been fixed at 70 million. A large part of it is due to the increase in personnel and salary increase caused by rushing to work.
