Chapter 590: Marvel's Milestone
"what happened?"
Because of being awakened, Stan Lee's mind is still not sober, but the various messy sounds that are constantly ringing outside still make him open the door and walk out, following the direction of the sound, and enter the company. In the lobby where the front desk is located.
As soon as he walked into the lobby, Stan Lee only saw all the Marvel staff, including Kevin Fitch and Avi Arad, almost as if they were going crazy. He hadn't figured out any situation yet. He heard a bucket of spray flowers being twisted nearby, and countless colored ribbons fell on his head.
Could it be...
Stan Lee's mind was sober, he immediately asked aloud to the front, "Kevin, did you get the box office statistics at midnight yesterday?"
"Got it! Got it!"
Without waiting for Kevin Fitch to answer, a young man nearby shouted loudly, "$10.26 million! "Iron Man" is trending steady! Stan, we really made it!"
"Yes, we made it!"
Countless messy voices followed closely. These people who have worked hard for "Iron Man" and Marvel Pictures for several years are excited, crazy and celebrating, and they are completely rewarded.
∠↙, Stan Lee was not too excited, just took a long breath, and all the efforts that Marvel made for it finally paid off.
Outsiders only see the good market response and box office numbers of "Iron Man". Several people know how Marvel Comics and Marvel Pictures have done so far after the genius director suggested that Marvel formulate a big universe plan. In recent years, what kind of pressure has been put on it.
Now, the harvest season is finally coming!
Although the crucial first weekend of the film has just begun, there is almost no slippage in the midnight show compared to the early show. It is enough to prove that "Iron Man" will draw a steady trend chart, and the past films of director Duke Rosenberg also confirm this.
After all, from last night to now, positive reviews have completely shown an overwhelming advantage. Cinemascore’s audience praise rate is as high as 94%, and the audience averages a+...
These are not those professional film critics who have nothing to do with the market. It is the most direct audience reaction, and it is also the guarantee of the strong box office trend of "Iron Man".
After preparing for several years, Marvel Pictures clearly saw that success had arrived, and the entire company was plunged into excitement.
Compared with Marvel Studios, Scarlett was also very happy after seeing the box office data of the midnight show, but not so excited and excited. In her eyes, this kind of success was taken for granted. What if Duke's film can't be successful? It is estimated that the movies released in Hollywood summer archives will basically meet the cold reception of the market.
She has seen too much of this success in the past ten years. Can't arouse excitement and excitement, even if it is closely related to her.
After breakfast, she drove Duke to the Warner Studios in a sports car, and then rushed to Rodeo Drive in Beverly Hills, where she met Rachel McAdams, whom she had agreed to yesterday. The two are here. The most famous boutiques turned around.
Black Widow and Pepper appeared at the same time, and soon attracted reporters and paparazzi. Scarlett and Rachel McAdams were not newcomers to Hollywood either. As long as those annoying guys don't come to disturb them directly, they basically ignore their existence.
These two people. They are all good actors. From the perspective of a paparazzi, they look like sisters.
Especially Rachel McAdams, the smile on her face is exceptionally brilliant, it seems that the friendship with Scarlett Johansson is really too good to be better.
She also got relevant box office statistics. It is also clear that "Iron Man" must be a box office bomb-level movie. If there is no accident, all the major actors, including her, will take a big step forward in their careers.
However, even the career has progressed. There is also a difference.
From last night to this morning, Rachel McAdams has been following the relevant comments in the media. As she expected, Robert Downey Jr. and Scarlett Johansson received the most praise, and her heroine, Instead, it fell to the same level as the black actor Don Chandell.
No one is willing to become someone else's supporting role, especially she is the heroine of the film.
"Shall we go to the coffee shop and sit for a while, Scarlett?"
When passing by a coffee shop, Rachel McAdams suggested, "Take a short break before going shopping."
"Okay." Scarlett didn't mean to refuse at all.
In any case, it would not be a very comfortable thing to follow so many sneaky paparazzi around.
Before entering the coffee shop, Rachel McAdamster bought a copy of the "Los Angeles Times", opened the glass door, found a relatively hidden seat, and sat on both sides with Scarlett.
"They haven't given up yet."
After ordering the coffee, Rachel McAdams pointed to the paparazzi who was still hovering outside through the glass window, and said, "Do you want to follow us for a day?"
Scarlett said indifferently, "Ignore them."
"The response to the film is so good." Rachel McAdams nodded, "They will definitely not let us off easily."
In her heart, she didn't think it was a bad thing at all. In the past, she needed to take the initiative to contact the media for street shooting. Since she appeared in Duke Rosenberg's film, reporter paparazzi chased her to shoot.
Only with media attention can there be exposure. Rachel McAdams knows this truth very well. From the treatment he enjoys now, he can also see the benefits of cooperating with super directors.
Rachel McAdams, of course, wants to continue working together. After all, the benefits she has gained from "Iron Man" have not met expectations at all.
"I heard that Duke has a series of production plans in the next few years?" She asked casually while chatting.
Scarlett seemed to be a small talk, "It seems there is."
With eyes flashing, Rachel McAdams said again, "Will you continue to work with him?"
"I don't understand his specific plan." Scarlett was telling the truth. "If he needs it, I don't care."
Rachel McAdams knew the importance of personal connections, decided to do a long-term relationship, took the initiative to change the topic, chatted about "Iron Man", said few words, opened the "Los Angeles" which she had already watched this morning The Times.
"Here is a comment on "Iron Man"!" Her tone was full of surprises, as if she had just found out, "It's the front page headline of the entertainment version."
"Really?" Scarlett was very interested, "I came out early today, I haven't read the comments yet."
After thinking about it for a moment, Rachel McAdams said, "I didn't read it either, so I might as well read it to you."
Two people are close to each other like best friends.
"The emergence of "Iron Man" directed by Duke Rosenberg has overturned our general understanding of comic heroes. Before Tony Stark, no mainstream comic hero had such a high profile. Personality. Including Superman's Clark Kent, Batman's Bruce Wayne, Spiderman's Peter Parker, etc., all have the two identities of'hero' and'ordinary man', and they do everything possible to conceal them."
"But Tony Stark is the opposite. As an ordinary person, he is a genius, a rich man, and the darling of the spotlight, and he does not shy away from the identity of the'Iron Man', the sentence at the final press conference of the film 'i.am.' is a high-profile declaration of the blatant birth of a superhero."
"Iron Man's setting is very in line with certain characteristics and needs of our era. Cool, rich, and exposed. For a considerable number of young fans, such an image is undoubtedly better than those cautious and sneaky superheroes. is attractive."
"At the same time, we can also see that there is another level of effort in Iron Man. Compared with Superman's talents, Spider-Man's special functions, and Batman's technology team, the rise of Iron Man is more from Tony ? Stark's genius and diligence. From the birth to the step-by-step revision and improvement of the "Steel Armor", it is entirely from Tony's personal hand.
"The release of this "Iron Man", Duke Rosenberg brought more than just an alternative superhero, he also brought a brand new situation to Robert Downey Jr. and Marvel Comics."
"In a sense, Tony Stark is also the shadow of Robert Downey Jr.. Downey became famous very early, but taking drugs, carrying a gun, and going to jail, all kinds of bad things took him a lot of good time, fortunately He met Duke Rosenberg and took the opportunity of "Iron Man" to return to people's vision with a new positive image."
"Iron Man is not only Downey's redemption, but also a milestone for Marvel. It is not difficult for those who have watched the film to find that Marvel has a series of plans. The successful business of "Iron Man", Duke Rosenberg Grid has opened a new situation for Marvel. It is foreseeable that from now until a long time in the future, the big screen will usher in a great era of Marvel superheroes."
After reading this, Rachel McAdams frowned slightly, and she found one thing she had overlooked.
In the entire series, Pebo Boz is just a vase. Even if he continues to appear later, he cannot change his position. The other party’s Natasha Normanov is not just a vase. If the inference is correct, she Not only a member of the Avengers, but also a key figure.
Rachel McAdams felt unbalanced again, but she was able to grasp her own mentality, stood up after a little adjustment, and proposed, "Shall we go to Chanel?"
Scarlett is like a sweet girl who is not very assertive, without any objection, grabbed the handbag and walked to Rachel McAdams, "Hurry up, there are still many stores left?"
The two of them walked along Rodeo Drive, and when they passed near a theater, they looked at it. The huge poster of "Iron Man" in front of the theater was quite attractive. (To be continued...)
