Chapter 860: Iron Man


Chapter 860
Since everything is just getting started, Marvel Entertainment in New York will not make any adjustments. Marvel Pictures will only set up a simple office in Firefly Studios for the time being, responsible for the two comic films "Spider-Man" that have already started. And the logistics administration of "Iron Man" and so on.
Although the opening of the two films will at least wait until next year, the previous special effects research and development work has started.
The production goal of g special effects is simply three types of people, scenery and objects.
In the past few years, most of the research and development focus in the digital field has only covered the two aspects of 'jing' and 'thing', and more concentrated on 'things', special effects shots such as dinosaurs, behemoths, aliens, spaceships, etc. , all belong to this category. Images such as hurricanes, floods, and digital buildings can be classified as ‘scenes’.
But this time, whether it is "Spider-Man" or "Iron Man", or the future "Green Hulk", "Raytheon" and other films, there will be a lot of special effects related to 'people', which will definitely involve The very popular motion capture technology of the later generations, in the film, most of the scenes of Tony Stark wearing Iron Man uniforms are actually done in a motion capture suit.
Motion capture technology has been around since the 1970s, but in the past, this technology was really concerned by the film and television special effects industry and began to be applied on a large scale, or after the success of the image of "The Lord of the Rings". According to MGM's plan, the "Lord of the Rings" series will also be launched in the second half of this year. At that time, motion capture will definitely be used. Therefore, Eric deliberately regards this technology as a technology development in the digital field for some time to come. Focus and follow up in person.
As long as you can accumulate enough technology and experience in motion capture in advance, there is no doubt that in the next few years, even if other special effects companies have completed follow-up on traditional g effects, the digital field will still maintain a strong leading position in the entire industry.
In addition to motion capture technology, fully digital large-scale urban scenes and mech deformation effects with real textures are also included in the digital technology research and development catalog.
It is conceivable that once these two special effects technologies are perfectly implemented, they can be applied not only to Marvel movies such as "Spider-Man" and "Iron Man". Fireflies can even start "Deformation" in advance if the hardware rendering conditions permit. The production of King Kong.
After the re-enactment of the Titanic celebration feast, Cameron specially arranged several detailed auditions for Stewart Langkel, and the results were very satisfactory. Stewart had a very good acting talent. Coupled with the experience of these years, it is more than enough to control the image of Peter Park, who has some words.
However, the process of signing is not so smooth.
Stewart's brokerage contract is still in aa, the broker over there directly rejected the packaging contract of the six films proposed by Firebug, and at most only willing to sign three, and said that each must renegotiate the pay, which is obviously the firefly can not agree The double convenience is temporarily deadlocked.
At that party, Eric told the Stewart Marvel Super Films the signing strategy in detail. He knew that if Stewart didn't want to, he would definitely not participate in Cameron's audition. The situation at hand may be as he said at the time, hoping to spend the sixteenth birthday and say the other.
According to Cameron's temper, the start of "Spider-Man" may even be dragged after "Iron Man", so Eric is not eager to ask this matter personally, let the head of Marvel Film and Stewart's agent slowly Grinding.
On the other hand, Eric himself has also begun to build the framework of the main creation of Iron Man.
The original "Iron Man" director Jon Feiru is still only a small role in a variety of independent films, although some regret, Eric can not help the seedlings, directly appoint a person who has not touched the guide The newcomer is the director of "Iron Man", but the alternative is also very easy to pick, there is Jos Weiden.
In the original time and space, José Weeden's "Avengers League", although with the aura of Marvel's super heroes, but the quality of the film itself is also very good.
In these years, Jos Verden is not only responsible for the production, director and screenwriter of "Buffy the Vampire Hunter Buffy", but also has directed two low-cost independent films, plus Jos Weiden himself. A super comic fan, the ability to control the film "Iron Man" is enough.
Outside the director, the most important thing is undoubtedly the actor.
In this regard, Robert Downey Jr. is definitely a circumstance. After all, the original "Iron Man", Downey's performance is too successful, it can be said that the most perfect realization of the Manga movie universe The role of a play.
Although the new version of Iron Man's actor age has been adjusted, Downey still echoes this condition.
However, when Eric asked the assistant to contact the other party, the news was that he had just been imprisoned for the second time this year, and he had already scheduled a six-week rehab treatment after the expiration of his sentence. Among the information collected by the assistants, Downey’s whole person was completely blessed by the long-term addiction of drug addiction, and there was no sense of the vicissitudes of the prodigal son who played the role of Tony Stark in memory.
Although there are some embarrassments, Eric can't wait for the other side to realize it again, but let people start looking for new role candidates. After all, what Hollywood lacks is the opportunity, and the most important thing is the actor.
It happens to be the weekend, and the time is already May 17.
Chris’s wedding will be held in three days. Eric intends to fly to Maryland today, but temporarily receives a call from Marvel Entertainment eo Avi Arad, who has to delay the trip. one day.
The purpose of Avi Arad’s visit is also the election of the hero of Iron Man.
At the same time, along with him, there is also a person who made Eric unexpected, Paula Wagner, Tom Cruise's producer, which is obviously also Avi Arad's solemn personally from New York. The reason for flying over.
Sharp Point Manor Villa, the reception area on the side of the glass curtain wall.
Avi Arad and Paula Wagner watched two girls wearing tennis clothes for their coffee, and they couldn’t help but look at Christina, who was petite, but did not express any opinions. Only after the taller Miranda Kerr poured himself a coffee, he politely thanked him.
Compared with Miranda, whose body has been running straight for one meter and seven, Cristina, who is only one meter and five years old and obviously will not grow longer, is obviously easy to misunderstand into an underage girl, but God knows that Christina is better than Miranda. I am three years older.
A pure face with a little charming fairy, it really makes Eric feel a little helpless.
It’s so fast, it’s so fast, it’s so fast...
It makes people feel that they have a sense of accomplishment in raising Loli!
Looking at Miranda's thin waist and pretending to pour himself a cup of coffee, Eric quickly said: "Go play, don't you have to help here."
On the other side, Christina put down the coffee pot and asked: "Eric, will the guests stay at noon?"
"Of course, you let the chef prepare carefully," Eric said, looking at Avi Arad and Paula Wagner: "Avi, Paula, do you particularly like it?"
Paula Wagner shook her head: "Just like it."
Avi Arad also followed: "Me too."
"That's it," Eric waved again. "You should go play first."
When the two girls disappeared, Eric first told Avi Arad: "You should have already talked to Jos Weiden. How do you feel?"

A young man with great thoughts,
Avi Arad nodded.
Although his directing experience is a bit shallower, I believe that if you personally check it out, you will definitely not be wrong.

Eric smiled, and this turned to Paula Wagner: "So, Paula, how are you doing recently, I heard that Cruise is shooting a new film in New York?"
Avi Arad arrived in Los Angeles yesterday afternoon and has already discussed with him Paula Wagner on the phone.
Although the fireflies have not officially announced the Marvel movie universe plan, but in the case of frequent fireflies, this event is not a secret in Hollywood, and some media have even launched a small report.
Perhaps it was the stimuli of Warner's three consecutive "Batman" box office in previous years, and Tom Cruise also became interested in Iron Man.
In the memory of past lives, "Iron Man" was once the object of Tom Cruise, but he was hesitant because of the repeated delays of Marvel, and the script could not satisfy Cruise, and the two sides parted ways.
Speaking of it, as an actor, sometimes the opportunity really seems to be very important.
Take Tom Cruise and Kevin Costner, in the past, after experiencing the box office defeat of "Future Water World", Kevin Costner gradually got out of the ranks of superstars. Due to the protection of the "Mission Impossible" series, although Tom Cruise has experienced some failures, he can make a comeback with the sequel to "Mission Impossible".
Now, the "Mission Impossible" series belongs to Kevin Costner, which also makes him save his career in time after the fierce defeat of the box office of "Future Water World". Tom Cruise is not so lucky, although he has been in the front line, he has tried several big movies in the past few years, but he can only say that the reaction is flat, and gradually, with Tom Cruise Paramount, who works closely, is not even willing to let Tom Cruise participate in the big film production. Instead, he is positioned in the type of low-cost art film. After all, Tom Cruise has not been able to get Oscar. The recognition of the award, but the drama and literary film he starred in, the box office is still very secure.
The new film that Eric just mentioned in Tom Cruise is being filmed in New York, and it is also a plot of art that costs about $40 million.
But obviously, Tom Cruise is not willing to continue this way. After all, Hollywood's big commercial films, even if they don't mention the "Titanic", which has just created miracles, there are many films that frequently touch the threshold of 700 million or even billion in the global box office. And the literary film, even if it sells well, the global box office can usually only be maintained at about 300 million US dollars, and the benefits involved are naturally incomparable.
Paula Wagner took a sip of coffee and nodded and said, "Yes, this is a biography adaptation of the film, and Tom hopes to hit Oscar again."
Eric smiled lightly and did not express any opinions on it. "So, this time, why are you interested in Iron Man?"
"Eric, don't you think that Tom is very suitable for this role?" Paula Wagner said, put down the coffee cup, took a few photos from the handbag, and handed it over.
Eric took a look and saw that Tom Cruise was wearing a steel shirt, which was obviously made with the help of Marvel. After all, Iron Man's battle suit design is currently only seen by the Marvel executives.
To put it bluntly, if you don't mention height, Tom Cruise is very similar to Tony Stark in the comic book.
After reading a few photos, Eric looked up: "Bola, since you got these designs, you must have heard that I have conceived the role of Iron Man."
"Of course," Paula Wagner nodded. "Eric, though, has some peak images, but you know for sure that Tom has enough strength to control this role. You have worked together in the "Dark War", not ?"
Eric nodded with a smile, and Eric did not have much other prejudice against him, except for Tom Cruise’s somewhat discouraging control. Now, although Tom Cruise is still the Hollywood front. Superstars, but compared with Eric, the two are no longer a heavyweight, and he naturally will not be the little details of the past.
