Vol 2 Chapter 589: Phenomenal director

ps: Ask for monthly and recommended tickets!
With the popularity of comic-based movies in recent years, more and more excellent comics have been put on the big screen, and "Iron Man" is destined to be one of the lucky ones who have benefited a lot from this tide.
The history of movies adapted from comics has a long history, but to truly become a mainstream commercial movie, strictly speaking, it must start with the movie "Spiderman".
In 2002, Sony Columbia earned a huge box office income by launching this abnormal growth history of an adolescent who accidentally obtained a supernatural function, so that the CEOs of the film company thought that Christopher Reeve brought a comic. The hero boom is revived again.
As a result, a large amount of investment budget was allocated to the comic-based movie plan, and one after another famous superheroes were put on the big screen to entertain the audience, causing the phenomenon of comic-based movies gradually heating up over the years.
Of course, the occurrence of this phenomenon also depends on the strong popularity of these superheroes in the United States. When Americans see the images in the comic books they read when they were young, they all become lifelike, and they will naturally go to the cinema. Join in collectively.
Speaking of this, I have to mention the two giants in the American comics industry-Marvel and DC.
78. These two comic companies established as early as the 1930s have established the rules of American comics through decades of business-as long as people want to see a comic hero, then the comic hero will always Won't die.
In North America, when a superhero is created by a cartoonist, the comic company will determine the hero’s fate. In order to maintain the freshness of the character’s image and a constant source of creative inspiration, the comic company will change hands for this character several times. Different cartoonists have come to participate in the creation of this character, with the basic design concept unchanged. Different cartoonists will whitewash this character according to their own style.
In this way, with the passage of time, more and more cartoonists have participated in the creation of this character, resulting in a superhero who can be active in comic books for decades, and the number of fans cultivated for decades is amazing. .
As long as the quality of the film is guaranteed, this guarantees the most basic number of viewers.
"Iron Man" not only possesses these qualities, but also does a better job.
and so. When Duke received preliminary statistics on the early box office just after the early morning Western time, there was no surprise. They used various forms to do too much targeted marketing.
"how many?"
In the room, Scarlett looked a little anxious. The films she starred in in the past were really well reviewed by professionals, but none of them had a better box office. Directly lead to fame, the pay is not high at all.
Dedicated to art? Scarlett had never thought about it this way, and none of the people she had ever met in this circle had such thoughts.
If even expenses are a problem, talk about creating and figuring out roles.
As we all know, the expenditures of famous Hollywood actresses are astronomical figures, such as clothing, publicly wearing clothes on the street. It must not be worn a second time, other houses, vehicles, assistants, cosmetics, etc. No need a lot of numbers.
If there is no commercial sponsorship, this will be overwhelming for many people, especially Scarlett’s current type of star, because before he was heavily biased towards literature and art, the actual income was not high, and commercial advertisements could not be easily accepted-they need to maintain their style. Only you can understand the suffering inside.
Why are actresses who are very artistic and literary. It's not difficult to understand why I can't wait to develop into business.
Unless you win heavyweight awards such as Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, no matter how good your acting is and you have not proven yourself in mainstream productions, it will be difficult to get a high salary.
In this country of independence and freedom. No one wants to rely entirely on another person. Duke can roughly guess some of Scarlett’s ideas, and without selling it off, he said directly,
3900 advance games, and got about 12.6 million US dollars.

"That said, the market response is pretty good." Scarlett looked at Duke and asked.
Duke laughed, "It should be said that it is very good."
He gently patted Scarlett’s hand, "Go to bed early, didn't you have Rachel McAdams appointment tomorrow morning?"
Although Duke and Duke went to bed with peace of mind, Marvel Studios has always been brightly lit, and the rough statistics of the advance show are in hand. Kevin Fitch breathed a sigh of relief, but did not start celebrating. Now the midnight shows across North America have been Kicked off the curtain.
It can be said that the early show has consumed a large number of Iron Man fans and the people who have been concerned because of the previous hot events. The response of the midnight show, to a certain extent, can see the box office trend of "Iron Man" in the first weekend and even later.
"Warner Bros.'s distribution capabilities and Duke's production standards are trustworthy."
He looked at Avi Allard walking around in the office and said, "We have already watched the film, and the quality is completely guaranteed, not worse than any Duke's previous film."
"I know that the film is more brilliant than I thought." Avi Allard finally sat down, "But this is a film that concerns the fate of the company."
Kevin Fitch pretended to say lightly, "I think we should consider planning for the next movie."
"Iron Man" not only pinned Marvel's hopes, but also the key to its future development. Before the success of this film, Marvel did not have the determination and courage to invest huge sums of money to prepare for a new superhero movie.
Now, their confidence is very high.
In this office, there is also an important man from Marvel.
Perhaps because of his age, Stan Lee was not as anxious as Kevin Fitch and Avi Arad, but looked very calm, just sitting quietly in front of the computer and looking at relevant comments on the Internet.
Others are already old, but their hearts are not old. They have logged into their instant sharing account very skillfully, and some popular audience comments about "Iron Man" are immediately displayed on the screen.
Stan Lee knows exactly what the Marvel super movie wants. Any professional media comment is not as direct as the audience's opinion.
"Another Hollywood superhero from the comics has appeared on the big screen. Iron Man Tony Stark's appearance is really arrogant, charming and intelligent. A woman, that’s like wearing clothes, Wake up in the morning and stay in bed, but never remember the name; the government's Outstanding Contribution Award? It can be given to passers-by at hand; weapons, that can be easily done in a cave, others will never do it for a lifetime The invincible high-tech armor."
"Duke has once again demonstrated his talents. He described the hero’s birth path and the hero’s psychological changes quite well. The changes from Playboy, King of War to Super Iron Hero appear extremely convincing. "Is a surprisingly brilliant work."
"To sum up the advantages of "Iron Man", I think there are four aspects-the scene is cool enough, the performance is funny, there are many new ideas, and it is worth continuing."
Seeing this, the old man couldn't help nodding slightly, and immediately shared the above comments, showing a one-sided trend.
Of course, it's on the side with good reputation.
"Let Duke Rosenberg direct Marvel's opening story, it is really a very correct choice."
Stan Li sighed secretly, turned off instant sharing and logged into imdb. The first thing I looked at was imdb's rating. For these older generations, they still care about this rating.
32114 users, with a rating of 8.8, which is already very good.
Such a score is enough to rank in the top 30 of imdb's top250, but Stan Lee knows that the score will definitely decline over time.
For example, "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King", Duke's film has been ranked first in imdb since its release, but this year, it has slowly fallen to second place, and Francis Coppola's "The Godfather" has recaptured. The first position.
But this does not affect Duke's position on imdb. On the world's largest movie website, top250 can be said to be the most talked-about existence by movie fans.
Except for "One Hundred Thousand Fire", all of Duke's other films are on the list, especially in the top ten, "The Lord of the Rings 3: The Return of the King", "The Matrix", "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" and "Saving Private Rui "En" are all listed impressively.
He occupies four spots alone.
In the eyes of those fans who adore imdb ratings, Duke is undoubtedly a phenomenal director.
Such a director, just like a director in the past, has many crazy fans in North America and the world.
Stan Lee knows this very well, and this is also one of the important reasons for Marvel Comics to let the other party, a latecomer, participate in the development of a large series of plans.
After all, everyone knows that the number of crazy fans often means huge market value.
For a commercial film director, is there a more important measurement standard than market value?
Then, Stan Lee turned to imdb's comments.
"Although I'm tired of saving the world from superhero movies, I have to admit that "Iron Man" is really very cool! The visual effects of this movie are really great, and it can be called the best special effects today. It’s also the biggest reason why I watched this film. The equipment in the film, omg! The house, the things in the laboratory, the robotic arms that can understand people, the sports cars, the power of the missiles, and the new ones. The air test flight of the armor, the first time it went to battle, was really cool!"

Iron Man’s production process is full of metallic beauty. It’s very cool. The exquisite special effects have no sense of disobedience, making the movie have an excellent viewing experience. The plot is very smooth, without any obvious loopholes, and is attractive enough. People. Duke Rosenberg’s production is as good as ever."
After reading the comments on the Internet for a while, I probably really had a bottom line in my heart. Stan Lee actually fell asleep. When he was super awake, white light appeared outside the window, and the day was about to dawn.
Stan Lee suddenly felt that something was wrong. In the entire small office building of Marvel Pictures, all kinds of strange roars continued to sound, and it seemed that demons and undead had crawled out of hell. (To be continued...)
