After the release of "Tomb Raider 2" last year, Stephen Sommers, director and producer, said that he would not make a sequel. Despite repeated appeals from the global authorities, his attitude was very firm, so he did not mention a sequel. The current universal is much better than Adrian's previous life's globe, which is only slightly better than the hapless MGM. Except for tomb raiders and spy films, there are basically no series of films that can be made. The role won from surprise is also that of the Hulk. So Mina had to restart these two series, of course, but the results were not how.
Now, with the support of AC media, especially Adrian, and his quick start, several of the most profitable series after the millennium, such as Harry Potter series, such as the superheroes of Marvel comics, have been written in their hands. As a result, high box office movies have been launched one by one. Now, globegroup is in the top of several major film companies, so right A sequel to "Tomb Raider" is not much sought after.
However, they did not give up the development of the surrounding areas of the series, and no film company would give up. Therefore, "Scorpion King" was born in this situation. Although Jushi Johnson did not have many parts in the "dare to die", it was also considered as a preliminary show. Then the Scorpion King in "Tomb Raider 2" was also very interesting, so universal had a measure for him The idea of creating an external film.
The screenwriters design a mysterious female wizard in the script. Although she does not explicitly state where she comes from, she still implicitly reveals that she is from the East, so she needs an actress of Asian or Asian descent. And Lin Xilei is in this situation. In the continuous four under the running, for Lin Zhiling to win the role.
It was not until after the character was finalized that Adrian knew that neither Lin Xilei nor Lin Zhiling had mentioned it before. There is no doubt that they want to surprise him and increase their sense of being. Although Lin Xilei can get the role for Lin Zhiling, Adrian who stands behind her still plays a role, but most of it depends on her own ability. No wonder Adrian will sigh that she is like a duck to water as a broker.
"I'll give you a good reward tonight when you get back home and call her here." Adrian takes advantage of the darkness at the beginning of the film. While kneading on Lin Zhiling's soft body, blowing air in her ears.
Although Lin Zhiling can't compare with Kate's in his favorites, she is more obedient and good at catering. Especially with Lin Xilei planning beside her, Adrian is very satisfied with Shuanglin. So I also prepared a lot of good roles for her, such as lily in X-Men 2. But now it seems that this role can be handed over to you Ji Hui. Although the positioning of you Ji Hui is completely different from that of Lin Zhiling, it is also good to try the role of action occasionally. You Ji Hui also needs to have a commercial blockbuster. Besides, she had experience in action drama in rush hour 2.
In this respect, Jack Chen is very good at making people feel good. You Ji Hui's action plays in rush hour 2 are not many, but they always have a bright spot. But it didn't affect Jack Chen himself. The same is true of Lin Zhiling in "Weilong of the western regions". She also has several action plays at the back of the film. He you Ji Hui is like the first in rush hour 2.
To tell you the truth, Adrian thought about working with Jack Chen at first. Unfortunately, his witty fighting style is too strong, which has become his label. With the passage of time, Adrian has a new plan. Basically, there will be no action movies for a long time, so we have to forget.
It doesn't matter. It's not so urgent to squeeze him. At the end of his mind.
Not to mention the night with Shuanglin, nor to mention the excellent box office of the first week of "Western Wei long". Although the competition for summer stalls is about to begin, most of the media were attracted by a news released by globegroup in early June. After discussion with Hasbro, globegroup will invest billion to produce a live action movie version of transformers, and invite James Cameron to be the producer and director!
For many people who were born in the late 1970s and early 1980s, it is self-evident what "Transformers" means. Hasbro launched this toy and animation, which was once very popular. It is one of the best childhood memories of many people who have started working. It is quite popular all over the world. Even if you want to use your knees, you can know that as long as the plot of the movie is a little reasonable and the special effects are extremely realistic, universal will not be unable to recover the cost, with Hasbro.
What's more, it's still directed by Cameron. Everyone knows that this maniac is obsessed with huge machinery and his style of ignoring everything when he burns up money. In recent years, rumors have spread that people dare not invite him to make movies because of the huge cost of Titanic. Although the well-informed media know that this is not in line with the facts, there are not few film companies after the big ship to discuss cooperation with Cameron, but he declined. However, since - -, they are also happy to attract attention with exaggerated reports. In addition, various tabloids that are too lazy to collect facts are interspersed among them. Under false rumors, many people think that Cameron wants to make Titan again in the future I'm afraid it's going to be hard to make a super big production like Nick.
Therefore, many loyal fans expressed their dissatisfaction and support for Cameron through various channels, and even launched the "save the king of the world" action, which made people feel quite ironic. But it is also because of this, when the news that he is about to direct the live version of "Transformers" was confirmed, it caused strong repercussions among the fans, and the media also chased him at the press conference."Well, frankly speaking, when Adrian first talked to me about this matter, I didn't pay attention to it. I thought that children's toys had something to adapt, but he kept pestering and pestering, put forward a lot of conditions, and said a lot of ideas. I was gradually intrigued by him, and finally appeared here. Just, I really want to complain that this guy pushed all the things to me after I signed the contract, and I had to fulfill all my promises. It's really irresponsible. " Cameron was quite funny at the press conference.
As a result, ordinary people's expectations of the real-life version of "Transformers" were instantly ignited, and the major film companies lamented again, even if they did not have Cameron's words. All this was planned by Adrian. Think about the situation when AC media bought Hasbro, they were obviously preparing for it at that time.
The Lord of the rings series, the matrix series, the Harry Potter series, plus the superheroes of Marvel comics, how much valuable things have they mastered?! And always before everyone reacts! Look, if the transformers live action movie is a great success, there will be few people who want to have the idea of copyright of Hasbro's other toy films, and then they will be submissive to AC media. Like a superhero who shares his surprise, the guy always seems to see things very far away.
However, although other film companies are envious, they do not know that it is still a long time before the film is finished. Globegroup just wants to stir up the atmosphere first. When it is released in two or even three years, a series of marketing methods will surely make this film have a high box office performance.
That's right. Adrian gave the crew two years to make it from the beginning. There are dozens of important characters in transformers. It takes a long time to decide which roles to play and how to shape in the film. What's more, there is no script so far, only an outline that doesn't count as an outline.
"In short, this is the story of a boy and his car." In Cameron's own office. This guy, who still has a beard, some slovenly, has his feet on the table. Hands in the back of his head shrugged, and then added: "and he can talk to the car story."
"So to speak." Adrian smiles and spreads his hand.
"It sounds like" knight errant. ". Why don't we just take their scripts and revise them. " Cameron said, half jokingly.
"Absolutely," Adrian nodded at his leisure. "Anyway, it's up to me. To say that" knight errant "is also the childhood memory of those who grew up in the 1970s and 1980s. Maybe I can have someone make a TV series like" new Ranger "or" knight errant 2002. "
"Well, well," Cameron immediately raised his hand. "I knew it's impossible to expect you. Everything has to be done by yourself."
"I just want to show my respect and, as you said at the press conference, I've put everything on you, and I'll do what I say." Adrian laughed.
"Really, how about removing the restrictions on character design?" Cameron sat up straight and hummed.
"That won't work," Adrian immediately waved. "You agree with me in your heart, don't you?"
"Yes, but I think you came up with the idea out of fear of my spending money recklessly." Cameron said very seriously.
Adrian couldn't help laughing. His proposal was very simple, that is, when making the role of transformers, we must make the robot look very heavy and powerful, instead of the original light and flowing feeling. The original transformers are really gorgeous and have metal texture. They even use thousands of parts in CG. Although this is very beautiful, it also gives people a feeling of unreal.
In short, the more gorgeous things are, the more fragile they are. Even if the screenwriter tells the audience through the mouth of the characters that their bodies are made of a special alloy, light and impregnable, who cares about them when the camera changes and when all kinds of exciting plots appear? Then, subconsciously, the audience will feel a little uncomfortable. Even if it comes back after watching it, it will still be affected when you can observe the shadow. Therefore, Adrian will do nothing else. First, he emphasizes to make the robot more thick.
"Come on, I've set aside some spare time for you. I never thought Yi could send you away." Adrian chuckled.
"Ha, can I take this as a compliment?" Cameron raised his hands with a smile.
"Of course - you really don't want to sign two more, just for me?" Adrian suddenly said again.
"Hey, ED, I said from the beginning that I only direct one," Cameron replied seriously. "You know what I want more. The new camera that I commissioned Sony to study, 3D, has made good progress. Maybe it will be put into use in a year or two. I can't wait to use it. "
"Yes, I know, I just..." Adrian made a gesture and then sighed, "I have to find a successor for you...""Don't worry, there may be someone better than me." Cameron comforted him.
"Maybe..." Adrian stood up. "OK, that's it. It's all up to you. "
"No problem By the way, the investment you promised... " Then Cameron, who stood up, suddenly said this.
"You fellow Adrian waved his fist to fight. "When did I not honor what I promised you?"
"Don't get excited. I just want to remind you. " Cameron laughed and dodged.
"I think I still have that credibility," Adrian sneered, adjusting his collar. "So, I warn you, James. Don't break your own sign, either
"Don't worry, I'll do my best." Cameron closed his smile and gave him a hard slap.
What a pity. Until he got out of the building and got on the bus, Adrian was still very sorry. If he could, he would like Cameron to direct the transformers live action trilogy. But Cameron is willing to sign only one contract in any case, although he promised to talk about it later. But it's actually because of another thing.
Yes, it's the super blockbuster seven or eight years later. In 1999, Cameron began to conceive, then did a lot of preparatory work, and then turned his eyes to 3D films - in this regard, his vision is very forward-looking. And long before that, Adrian had promised to support his idea and invest. It was because of this that he agreed to take over the job of directing transformers.
It's OK. That's it. You can't force it. Adrian is very open-minded. Of course, this is on the premise that Cameron gave him a well-made "Transformers", which is also out of this consideration. In addition to requiring the robot to be full of thick feeling in the production, he also gave something that was barely the outline, such as the idea of a boy chasing a girl by his car, or the scene of a maniac robot to destroy an American military base It's over.
As for the rest, I'll leave it to Cameron to edit. Will there be some of the original versions? The robots appear a little later, and finally fight in the city. I don't want to worry about the dizziness at the beginning, but I don't use heavy weapons. Anyway, it's good to be ready for shooting before the end of this year.
Think about that Fox girl. She is very hard-working. The cast of big liar gives her a good evaluation. I don't know if she is ready All aspects of preparation.
Compared with the sensation caused by "Transformers" preparing a live action movie, another film that started at this time is relatively low-key.
"It's up to you, Peter. Don't let me down." After the meeting, Adrian patted Peter Jackson on the shoulder.
"No problem, I will try my best to do it well!" Said Jackson, with his bright eyes, in an excited tone.
Yes, King Kong, a film that has been remade many times, is going to be remade again, and Adrian won't fail to honor his promise to Peter Jackson. What's more, although he didn't spend $200 million in his previous life, it was only 50 million less, which was the same as Cameron's "Transformers" budget. Of course, if Cameron thinks that billion is not enough, it is absolutely not difficult to make additional investment, but Jackson only has this billion.
Well, the fat man from New Zealand - well, he's not fat now, he's losing weight pretty well - is still very excited and ready to fight. In this time and space, although he participated in the production of the Lord of the rings, he has never directed a film with an investment of over 100 million yuan. Moreover, Adrian made the decision to let globegroup delegate power to him. It was inevitable that he met a confidant in his heart.
These factors, coupled with Adrian's subtle influence on him, and promised to support him in directing the Hobbit or the fairy diamond if King Kong sold, so the problems of the previous version, such as excessive length, lack of pace and excessive use of slow motion, should be curbed.
"That's why you want me to be the heroine?" Adrian spoke to Jackson and then met Naomi in the eyes.
The slightly petite girl pursed her lips and tried to gaze at Adrian with calm eyes, but the turbulent mood behind her eyes was not completely covered up. The people in the conference room were almost gone by now, and the rest of the room slipped out with Jackson and gave it up to them.
"What's the problem?" Adrian gave a gentle smile.
"No, just..." Naomi made a gesture, then tilted her head to one side, biting her lips as if she were ready to shed tears.
"I'm sorry," Adrian said, pressing into his arms. "I don't know Well I didn't know it would hurt you If you think it offends you, I apologize and ask them to revise the script... "
"No!" Naomi finally calmed down. She looked up to Adrian again. Her blue to green eyes were shining brightly. "It's good, ED, it's good. It reminds me that when the gray is all over my life, the only color is there, and I'll hold it tight and never give up."www.novelhold.com , the fastest update of the webnovel!
