Vol 3 Chapter 207: Why

In previous lives, the "Night Tales" series was a relatively low-investment movie, which was relatively successful, and it had at least some loyalty. However, the most talked about series in this series is the background setting, the urban war between vampires and werewolves, the heroine Kate, and the plot ... what is it?
Well, this is a bit overdone. The plot is still there and basically coherent, but it is not particularly meticulous. Simply put Romeo and Juliet on it, and the funds are limited. The focus is on CG and action, so I have to Sprinkle dog blood on the plot. It's not that the story can't be sprinkled with dog blood, but how to sprinkle it well and make the audience accept it is not annoying, it takes some effort. For example, "You jump, I jump," or "You will always die in a warm bed, not here" in Titanic. Everyone admits that this is dog blood, but Cameron is acceptable to the audience And earned $ 2 billion in box office worldwide.
So it is inevitable to modify the story. Adrian replaced the leading actor with a little girl. If it is limited to the original frame, it is not easy to modify it, but if you jump out and redesign the plot, you can let go. Hands and feet, besides, can't sprinkle dog blood with a little girl? Maybe it will be better.
The story continues, and Selina quickly catches up with the werewolf, and then in a messy mall, there is another fierce battle, and both sides show their mentality without any fear. Selina was fine, but her eyes turned blue and her sharp teeth were exposed. But the werewolf seemed much stouter, and because the funds were still sufficient, the hair was basically slender.
This battle is still a battle of speed and strength, although vampires are not much worse than werewolves in strength-at least as set-but a woman beats a guy who is almost twice his size, No matter how you look at it, it feels a bit unreal. Although this is an unrealistic work, it is too exaggerated and not good.
Although the werewolf has done his best to stop the vampire's most powerful night walker, he is not an opponent after all, and finally he has two silver spinning darts on his body and fell out and broke a large glass of glass and lay on his breath. But just as Selina stepped forward to solve him, a more fiercely transformed werewolf was suddenly killed next to him. It is about the same size as the one that fell to the ground, but it is more flexible, agile, and more combat-conscious.
Selina has suffered a loss for the first time since her appearance, and was completely suppressed by surprise, and finally flew out. However, even though she immediately jumped up and stood up without fear, the other party did not seem to intend to engage in too much entanglement with her, staring at her with a chilly smile. Picking up the injured werewolf on the ground, he left.
The opening action scene is basically over here, and the following literary scene begins to roughly but comprehensively introduce the situation of the two races. The vampire basically does not leave the traditional image, mysterious, elegant, and luxurious and decadent. The only thing Incomparable only barely smiled. It's like Selina, the person in charge of the Night Walker of a machine.
Their side is still the pattern of the three giants in power and parliament, but unlike the original version, the vampires are divided into hawks and doves, because the power of the werewolves has been slightly strengthened. After all, the werewolf is not easy to deal with despite the problem of madness. But they can act during the day, which is more conducive to their integration into human society, so as long as they can operate, the power should definitely not be too weak compared to vampires.
Of the Big Three, Marcus doesn't care about anything, Victor is hawkish. And Emilia is dovish. Although she is currently in charge of Emilia, she is actually in a semi-overhead state. The head of the nightwalker, Selena, is the adopted daughter of Victor, and the number two character Kline is ambitious. To the higher guy.
Of course, what Emilia ’s so-called doves do is just give them something as a master after truce with the werewolves. For the werewolves who were slaves of vampires centuries ago, she thinks that this is enough. . So you can imagine how ridiculous this peace is.
These are the background settings, which are revealed in various ways throughout the course of the story, and then let the audience piece together the prototypes. The main plot is still developing steadily. Selina returned to the premises and had doubts about the werewolf, because the opponent was similar to the former werewolf leader Lucian recorded in the data, and at the same time went to the head of the weapon to ask about the ultraviolet bullets used by the werewolf.
This is also one of the most interesting places in the Underworld series. It uses scientific methods to explain the birth of vampires and werewolves, and why vampires are allergic to ultraviolet rays and arewolves are allergic to silver utensils. It can be seen from the self-titled names of the two races in the original content briefing that it was a pity that it didn't persist in the end. After all, this is a medium investment commercial movie.
Although Adrian had strengthened this aspect when he was writing a novel, he couldn't see anything in the movie. This is also the fact that movies and novels are two different carriers after all. Just as I said before, reading the novel feels that there is something puzzling in the front. You can turn it back and read it again, but you ca n’t turn the movie down in the cinema. Go back and look again.
Still back to the movie, although Selina's main focus is on the relationship between that huge werewolf and Lucian, but at the same time why both sides are vying for the little human girl. Then the camera turned around and came to the werewolves, who were also discussing the escape of their prey.
"I'm disappointed, gentlemen, I'm disappointed. We took a huge risk, and with the help of some people, we finally let the target escape, but we failed at the last minute. I'm disappointed." Lucian, who seemed to be wild In the middle of the lobby of his old nest, staring at his men said this.
The dare not to speak, or the man whom he had saved himself before, and came out of it after bandaging: "Sorry, head."
"You should feel lucky. Fortunately, they didn't use the last silver nitrate bullet, otherwise you won't be able to come back." A thin old man followed and came out. "Lucian, there is good news and bad news. "
"Tell me about it." Lucian waved.
"The good news is that the blood sample worked, basically ... perfectly. The bad news is that the blood needs to be kept fresh," the old man spread his hand.
"Good," Lucian knew what he meant. "Everyone acted for me, and they had to be found out in the shortest possible time!"
"I'll go too, head," added the head. "As long as they are still in the city, I will find out for you."
The werewolves were in action, and the vampires were not idle. Emilia was furious that the target eventually slipped away. Make Klein have to get it back in the shortest possible time.
"I don't understand, sir, why do we have to be that little girl, and there are many guinea pigs." Crowne was puzzled.
"You don't need to understand, anyway, start everyone's hands. You must find her out." Amelia said loudly, in this version, she is finally no longer a dragon suit that only appears once.
Then she turned to the called Selena who called: "Bring the little girl back. If you can't bring it back ... then kill her."
Although Selina is Victor's adopted daughter. Moreover, a mind was devoted to hunting the werewolf. Although there were doubts about the werewolf, there was no more evidence, so he agreed, and Klein next to him looked jealous. There is no doubt in this edition now. Lucian should still be this guy in Vampire's side, for the same reason-in order to control power. Of course, he didn't know what that girl meant to the descendants of Alexander.
While the vampires and werewolves were in action, the man and the woman who were hiding in the small hotel with the little girl were in a hurry.
"We are going to escape, and I never want to go back to that ghost place!"
"I know, I know, but how are we going to escape? We have nothing, and more than that vampire looking for us! You see. That's ... that's a werewolf ..."
"We always have to think of a solution, and if they find it, no matter who it is, we will be dead!"
A man and a woman quarreled hurriedly in the room, knowing that a very immature but indifferent voice sounded, "You can hand me over."
The little girl who had barely talked since she was brought out finally opened her mouth, her expression was very indifferent, and she seemed to be used to being at the mercy of life. I have to say that Dakota's acting skills are excellent. At least at this stage, few people can compare. The feeling of sorrow is greater than death.
"I believe they only want me." The little girl continued.
This remark made the pair of men and women shut their mouths. They managed to escape together, even if they thought about it, they couldn't really do it. But without waiting for them to come up with a better way, the werewolves came. The order these guys got was for that child. Naturally, the drama for the men and women came to an end.
In the face of the sudden werewolf, although the little girl had a panic expression and shrank into the corner, it basically remained indifferent, until Selina, who had come forward alone after receiving the information, appeared. Although this paragraph is cliché, as long as the rhythm is well grasped, the audience just likes to watch it. Besides, when Selina broke through the window, Adrian clearly heard that Li Lisong was watching beside her. Tone.
Next, naturally, there was another battle, firearms, fists, swords, hidden weapons, taking turns. As one of the biggest selling points of this movie, this effort is not enough, whether it is kicking against a wall, flying, or shooting. Fighting shooting styles are quite exciting. Of course, the most exciting thing is Selena and Lucian in human form, a standard speed and power duel.
Adrian paid special attention to this fight, and also communicated with the action guidance from Hong Kong. In short, it is fast to fight, but not to the point where it can be unclear. Some are similar to a later one. The round table of kung fu movies played against the taste of the last game. In this way, coupled with the actual work of cutting, the scene is naturally beautiful.
"Are you Lucian?" Selina asked in a temporary confrontation.
"It's really surprising that you know me. For hundreds of years, you are still so beautiful, Selena." Lucian said in a soft, careless tone.
"It was you then ?!" Selina's eyes turned blue. The teeth were also exposed, becoming increasingly dangerous.
"That's what Victor said to you? Oh, of course, he can always make people believe this." Lucian sneered, and then began to transform.
Nevertheless, Selina maintained a certain restraint, remembering to take the little girl back, so when she was suppressed by the transformed Lucian again, she immediately left the little girl after forcing her back. Lucian did not catch up. It just recovered the human figure and looked at the distant vehicle with a complex hum, and then notified others to catch up.
Because of this, Selena didn't go back the first time, but found a place to settle temporarily.
"You weren't injured?" She asked after examining the little girl.
"No," the little girl answered calmly.
"Aren't you afraid of me? You know who I am?" Selina was curious.
"I know." The little girl was still indifferent, just holding her knees subconsciously.
"Where are you from?" Selina asked again after silence.
"Lab," the little girl looked up at her, "your lab."
"Our ... lab?" Selina narrowed her eyes. "What laboratory do you use?"
"I don't know, they ... always draw my blood ... one tube after another ..." Although the little girl remained indifferent, the fear in her voice was very obvious, and she seemed afraid to close her eyes.
Cold as Selina couldn't help but feel a little moved, as if something buried for a long time began to loosen, and she said after a long time: "It's safe here. No one will hurt you if you stay here."
"Will you take me back?" The little girl asked softly.
"Not for the time being." Selena gave the answer.
The little girl quickly fell asleep, and Selina stood by the window for a long time, under the dim light transmitted in from the outside, her face remained deserted. But the audience knew that she must have turned the waves. Finally, she walked to the little girl who was asleep, staring at her silently, her face gradually softened, and a frame of pictures passed through the camera.
It was a picture of her once living in this world, a happy medieval little girl and her parents bathed in the sun. Poverty is happy.
The director did a very good job here. Because the vampire is the protagonist, the whole film is dominated by cold colors, and the whole is dark and humid. Even if the vampire's residence has more gorgeous colors, it is only to highlight their gothic decadent. But when Selina began to remember, the color tone of the picture began to warm, like a winter sun. Although it looks far away, it still feels warm.
Selina's face was gradually thawing, her eyes narrowed slightly, revealing a trace of pity from her heart. Throughout the movie, the heroine doesn't have many expressions. Most of the time, she looks cold with a cold face, just like a killing machine, so the few expressions are very attractive. Moreover, Kate's previous acting skills accumulated by the films Adrian prepared for her are concentrated at this moment. Together with the mother, the feelings are naturally extra invested, the kind hidden in Deep in the heart, the motherly breath is silent but extremely strong, and it is easy for Selina's inner world to be shown to the audience and resonate.
"It's great, Kate, let alone the commercial appeal of the moment, let alone those niche movies," Adrian said in Kate's ear.
"Of course, I practiced this lens countless times in private." Kate gave him a white look, and then sighed again. "Unfortunately such a lens."
"How much more do you want?" Adrian opened his eyes deliberately and turned to his daughter. "Look, Lily, your mother is so greedy."
"Don't be noisy. I want to watch a movie." Lili waved his hand impatiently, blocking her father's words directly.
"This little guy ..." Adrian muttered, still holding Kate's hand, admiring.
Because of Kate's brilliant performance, this lens has thus become the most classic lens of the entire film, and it has become an opportunity for Selena's transformation-this is why a little girl is required to assume the key key role instead of the original Another reason for the Romeo-type actor ~ EbookFREE.me ~ It is not wrong to use love to change the heroine, but in this commercial category, the main selling point is action movies, which is a bit abrupt. . In any case, although Victor killed her family and turned her into this, Selina is a vampire family after all, because love betrays her race, if there is enough pavement, it will be bad. If not, then To some extent, it will give people a feeling of being unfamiliar with white-eyed wolf. The audience may not realize this, but they will always unconsciously leave such an impression.
What's more, in the background, Selena has lived for almost a thousand years, and it is so easy to entice a man, the blood of this dog is too low. The reason why this medium-investment commercial film is rarely remembered, even if someone remembers it is aftertaste action, mostly CG. One is that unlike artistic films, they can resonate emotionally, and the second is that it is difficult to withstand the details. .
So instead of working love, it's better to think of family relationships, use an unfortunate little girl to evoke the memories of her heart, evoke her natural motherhood, awaken her as a person, and then reveal her After Kdo was the murderer of her family, betrayal became even more logical.
As mentioned before, changing to a little girl can spit dog blood, and it can be even better. (To be continued)
