There are a lot of unimaginable behind-the-scenes people involved in Hollywood movies.
The writing of the script has never been a matter of a screenwriter's brain, especially for a major commercial production. All the executives and supervisors of the film company will participate in it, brainstorming ideas, and making suggestions.
Then, coordinated by the producer, a screenwriting team is established, or two or three people, or twenty or thirty people, to complete the script with rich details.
We got the outline of the script for Ghost Rider 2, and everyone was very excited.
Nina Jacobson looked uncertain. After the meeting, she invited Dunn to her office.
"Is something wrong?" Dunn asked with a smile.
Nina Jacobson said hesitantly: "I have some concerns about the structural design of Ghost Rider 2. Of course, it's not about the plot. In fact, everyone's ideas about the ending of Ghost Rider 2. And the deep thematic performance, it's amazing enough."
"Then you are?"
"Is it really appropriate for Daredevil to make a cameo?"
"Um?"
Dunn frowned.
Appropriate!
So fitting!
For various reasons, everyone in the conference room has already explained it.
Daredevil is an ordinary person without too many superpowers, his ability is much worse than Spider-Man, Iron Man, Hulk. However, he has a strong will and willpower that surpasses the gods. How surprising would such a setting be?
Otherwise, it would be illogical to juxtapose the tasteless superhero of Daredevil with Spider-Man, Thor, Ant-Man, Deadpool, Ghost Rider and other superheroes.
He has the strongest heart and is the mainstay at critical moments, which will further highlight Daredevil's existence value.
Nina Jacobson shook her head, "No, that's not what I said. The release date of Ghost Rider 2 is the summer of 2007. However, in the summer of 2006, Daredevil 2 will be released. . If all goes well, then of course it's good, Daredevil's appearance will add luster to "Ghost Rider 2". But if there is an accident..."
Dunn was stunned.
That's what it meant!
Daredevil 2 will be released a year earlier than Ghost Rider 2. If the film's box office performance is gratifying and its reputation is excellent, and "Daredevil" has become a superhero widely recognized by fans, then letting Daredevil appear in "Ghost Rider 2" will form a positive promotion.
However, once the box office and word of mouth of "Daredevil 2" fail, causing the popularity of the superhero "Daredevil" to plummet, and letting him make a cameo appearance in "Ghost Rider 2", it will have a counterproductive effect and will be implicated in "Daredevil 2". Ghost Rider 2's box office and word of mouth.
For example, the big bad films of the previous life, "Spawn", "Daredevil", "Green Lantern", etc., only made one film, which led to the death of the entire series.
Tang En smiled, "Don't worry, Daredevil 2 will not have any problems! Please trust Director Nolan the way you trust me."
"Ah?" Nina Jacobson was stunned for a moment, rather surprised. Christopher Nolan's first commercial production, Daredevil 1, cost 150 million US dollars and the global box office was 360 million US dollars. Not much, he frowned and said, "I've already seen the filming material for Daredevil 2. To be honest, it's not as good as I imagined."
Tang En said in disapproval: "Daredevil 2 will be the first Hollywood movie shot with an imax camera, and the plot is ups and downs, the idea is profound, and it is very difficult to shoot. It is normal for some minor problems to occur. There is still time. , we can make up a part of the film next year for repairs and supplements.”
The theme of "Daredevil 2" is the same as that of "Batman 2: The Dark Knight" in the previous life, and the director and screenwriter are the Nolan brothers. Even if there are slight differences in the plot, the overall quality of the film will not be a big problem.
Dunn is confident about the film's box office.
Seeing that he was so determined, Nina Jacobson didn't bother anymore, and changed the subject, "Boss, I'm going on vacation."
Tang En glanced at her bulging belly and said with a smile, "How many weeks?"
"27 weeks."
"Well, it's time to take a break. You can call Kevin to handle the matter of Marvel Studios. When you're busy next summer, you can come back to work."
Dunn is not a black-hearted boss.
For old employees, especially those who followed him early to start a business, he has always treated as much as he could.
Fortunately, women in the United States do not have the habit of confinement after giving birth, and the abdomen is restored, and they can go to work.
Take this opportunity to hone Kevin Feige's ability to manage the company more. In another year or two, Marvel Pictures will be handed over to him.
Dunn is very optimistic about him.
...
At the end of November, a Japanese movie suddenly became popular in Hollywood, "Godzilla's Final Battle", the final chapter of the "Godzilla" series.
In the history of world film development, Japan has made a very important contribution.
Born in 1954, the first "Godzilla" was a pioneer of stunt movies. When Hollywood was still sweeping the world with musicals, it was Japanese films that led the trend of disaster films, action films and sci-fi films.
Of course, according to the current Hollywood conventions for distinguishing genre films, films like "Godzilla", "Jurassic Park", "Spider-Man", "The Avengers" cannot be called science fiction films, they are action films Adventure movie.
Science fiction movies are movies like Star Wars and Interstellar.
The former is space opera, the latter is hard sci-fi.
Because of the lack of monster movies in the United States, the "Godzilla" series once amazed the United States, so the monster "Godzilla" has a great reputation in the United States.
"Godzilla Final Battle" is the final version of the series, so Hollywood held a big event, and even "Godzilla" was honored to win its star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame, which is After Disney's Mickey Mouse and Donald Duck, the world's only third non-human film character to receive this honor. And an award ceremony was held in front of the Lauman Chinese Theater.
On the night of the awards ceremony, "Godzilla Last Stand" had its world premiere at the Grauman Chinese Theatre, with an audience of about 1,200.
This is the first Japanese film to premiere at the Grauman Chinese Theatre since 1927.
This film is produced by Sony Pictures, directed by Kitamura Longping, it is a thoroughly Japanese film and has nothing to do with Dunn.
However, Dunn still attended the premiere of the film.
Because Nagasawa Masami played a small role in "The Last Battle of Godzilla" and was the third female.
The current Nagasawa Masami is the most brilliant and wonderful age, full of collagen and full of youthful feeling, the innocent and hearty smile is like the daughter next door, beautiful and beautiful.
As her golden father, Dunn has the responsibility to take care of her when she comes to the United States.
At the beginning of the movie, a big monster appeared, and Dunn couldn't stand it any longer.
What effect is this?
Rubbish!
"How much does this movie cost?" Dunn sat next to Nagasawa Masami, holding her soft little hand, and asked in a low voice.
Nagasawa Masami said softly: "A lot, it seems... It seems that there are more than 2 billion!"
More than 2 billion?
Japanese yen?
Converted to US dollars, that is about 20 million US dollars.
For this amount of money, making an action monster adventure special effects film will indeed have a feeling of powerlessness.
After watching it for a while, Dunn also guessed the plot of the film.
In the movie, there is a finale featuring a Hollywood version of Godzilla (called) who is hired as a killer by an alien named "Xiliens" who wants to conquer Earth. The real Godzilla fights to the death, as well as various monsters who have appeared in previous Godzilla movies such as Gigan and Rodan.
Basically, there is no plot, just a few big monsters fighting non-stop. After this fight, the coherence is poor and boring.
Tang En couldn't stand it any longer. He leaned over and whispered in Nagasawa Yami's ear, "Yami, do you think about me?"
"Think about it."
"When I get home at night, I will take care of you."
Nagasawa Yamei's ears were slightly red, and she quickly glanced at Tang En, both ashamed and happy, and lowered her head with a soft "um".
Dunn's eyes did not fall on the big screen, and his eyes wandered in the crew of "The Last Battle of Godzilla".
He is a guest, so the position is excellent, sitting in a row with the crew and having a good line of sight.
"The Last Battle of Godzilla" mainly has 4 female characters, in addition to Nagasawa Masami, there are Kikugawa Rei, Mizuno Maki and Otsuka Chihiro.
Among them, Mizuno Maki is too old and a little old, and Otsuka Chihiro looks nothing.
Kikugawa Rei is very good, her face is a little baby fat, and she feels a little bit like a female star of the Hong Kong government in the 1980s.
"Who is that woman?"
"She's Sister Kikugawa Rei, our female number one."
"Juchuan Lian?" Tang En touched his chin and nodded, "You look good, go tell her, and come back with us at night."
Nagasawa Masami widened and looked at Tang En in surprise, "Odu-chan, you... Are you going to take Sister Kikugawa as your daughter? She seems... She seems to be the same age as you, and she was born in February. Birthday, older than you."
Tang En glared at her, "She wants to be my daughter, but I won't accept it!"
Nagasawa Masami covered her mouth and snickered.
Tang En said lightly: "Tell her, I'll take her back at night to play!"
Masami Nagasawa said hesitantly, "But... but Sister Kikugawa is a big star, the most popular female star in Japan right now, she may not..."
Tang En said disapprovingly: "Just because she is popular, she will be more sensible. Go tell her, if she refuses, I will let Zhou Fang Yuxiong call her."
"Oh, okay." Nagasawa Masami nodded obediently, and then raised her head to look at Tang En, "She won't want to live with our sisters in the future, will she?"
Tang En said indifferently: "No, playing with her once is enough for her to use her for a lifetime."
