The preparations for "The Matrix" are proceeding in an orderly manner, and almost every other day, Luke Simmons will call Wayne to talk about the progress of the crew.

In mid-July, when the North American summer season was in full swing, Tom Hanks returned after a year with a heavyweight film "Apollo 13", which swept the entire theater market on the day it was released.

It seems that North American audiences have received an overwhelming degree of recognition for Big Tom's face. As soon as the movie was released, it caused people's madness. On Friday, there was a situation where it was hard to get a ticket.

However, something unexpected happened again. "Apollo 13", which fetched $60 million in the first weekend, did not occupy the headlines of the entertainment media on Monday. On this day, both film critics and the media were criticizing another The film sang praises.

"Batman: War Hour has won the box office for four consecutive weeks since its release, and since then, regardless of whether other major productions are released, the film has maintained a surprisingly stable box office trend.

Finally, after this weekend passed, it got another 11.03 million US dollars, becoming the only film this year to reach 300 million US dollars at the box office. So far, the cumulative box office has reached 301 million US dollars, and the competition for the annual box office champion has been announced in advance, and there is no suspense at all.

Wayne Greenberg's DC blockbuster is well ahead of Pocahontas' $130 million, which came in second at the box office, and is so far the only film to exceed $200 million this year..."

--- "Premier"

"Wayne Greenberg's new summer work, "Batman: War Hour" officially broke through $300 million yesterday, this dark and serious masterpiece has a solid box office trend, and since its release, the next weekend's decline has never exceeded $300 million. Thirty percent.

There have been many well-known film critics and film critics who asserted that the filming of "Joker" used too much of his talent, and such a blockbuster work would be difficult to reappear within ten years. However, just two years later, another box office bomb, in the hands of Wayne Greenberg, was cast in front of hundreds of millions of fans in the world..."

--- "Los Angeles Times"

On this day, no matter what type of media, radio, TV, almost all the achievements of "Batman: Time for War" are put on the front page headlines or morning programs.

Just two short years ago, "Jurassic Park" and "Joker", which were born out of nowhere, pushed the box office height of a movie to a terrifying $300 million for the first time.

Whether it is the media or the public fans, they all think that this will become the norm. Hollywood movies and the cinema market are making great strides. However, this is just an illusion of people. After these two films, there will be only Forrest Gump. This work, barely reached 300 million US dollars.

But "Forrest Gump" is completely a white moonlight in the hearts of North Americans. Its performance overseas can only be said to be neither plague nor fire. It did not create the same achievements as the first two films, nor did it cause the so-called global movie viewing trend. .

Until then, everyone woke up. It turned out that the North American box office exceeded 300 million US dollars, which is still an unattainable peak. Even in the world's largest movie market, it is not as easy as people think.

There are not many movies that surprise fans this summer. If compared with last year's riotous dance, this year even has a monotonous meaning.

Fortunately, at the beginning of the summer season, there are box office bombs such as "Batman: War Hour", which injected a shot of booster into the theater market. When the scale of the film continued to shrink and its popularity gradually faded, Tom Hanks was as reliable as ever, and "Apollo 13" took over smoothly and continued to bring fans a good viewing feast.

However, insiders and most of the media are well aware that this film cannot be like "Forrest Gump", and its potential will not reach 200 million US dollars at most, which is why the media announced the annual box office champion in advance.

Just looking at the release plan for the second half of this year, it is almost impossible to find a work that can wrestle with "Batman: Time for War". The film critics say that "Detective Plane 3" and "Seven Deadly Sins" have the greatest chance. The two films were also written by Warner Bros.

No matter how the outside media sang praises, Wayne did not accept any interviews. Usually, the "Los Angeles Times" can get some things to publish through Bella Grant, but in this special period, the beauty editor did not go to the manor himself to find it. uneasy.

During this period of time, apart from taking Nao Miwatts to the hospital for a checkup every once in a while, Wayne has been taking a restful vacation in the manor. Except for occasionally caring about Zach Snyder, basically Lost the workaholic state.

At the beginning of August, "The Matrix" entered the stage of formal formation. The main actors Li Guohao, Charlize Theron, Gary Oldman, Jean Reno and others also joined the crew. After a short training, the film was released. Filming will officially start before the end of September.

Unlike Wayne's habit, he used to try to shoot in Warner Bros. Studios for any shot, and was less willing to run too far to shoot if it was not necessary.

After careful investigation, Zach Schneider decided to set the filming location in Australia, where the tax rebate amount is relatively high, and the local government can provide free help when shooting big scenes such as helicopters. The only thing to consider is to hire some local staff.

Because of the title of Greenberg's work, this project is also the focus of media pursuit. During the preparation period of the film, under the guidance of Warner Bros., the promotion work started unhurriedly.

"This is your new project?"

On the balcony on the third floor of Greenberg Manor, Naomi Watts hugged the golden retriever, watched Wayne revise the script lazily, and asked curiously. "Yes, a small production with low cost." Looking back at the Australian girl, Wayne handed the script to the other party. "Want to see it? Tell me about your feelings after reading it."

This familiar scene gave Naomi Watts a very peculiar feeling. She still clearly remembers that in that small apartment, the other party also handed her the script for "Happy Death Day".

It is also because of the script that the pair of "good friends" and "partners" have continued to achieve success together in Hollywood from a pair of small characters.

She suddenly showed a warm smile, cast a glance at the man, took the script, and read the introduction softly.

"South Boston, the heyday of the gang leader Frank Castro dominates one side. He decides to train the 14-year-old Colin to pave the way for his future. At the same time, the boy Billy was born on the block. , relying on their own efforts, hoping to get rid of poverty and criminal life.

Time flies, Colin and Billy both grow up, and both go to the police academy and become state police officers. The shrewd, ambitious and ambitious Colin was quickly promoted to superintendent of the "special investigation team" after annihilating the gang. He gained his own power in the police station, but still obeyed Castro. And Billy, who grew up on the street and has a somewhat violent personality, although he wanted to be a good policeman, was assigned the task of secretly infiltrating the gangster organization and became Castro's effective subordinate.

Castro's gangster crime group is getting stronger and stronger, and the police decide to start secretly preparing to eradicate it. The confrontation is getting more and more tense, and the failure of a series of cat-and-mouse operations has also made the police and the sensitive Costello aware that there are spies inside. The police and the gangs are about to start a big clean-up operation, and the two undercover undercover agents who have suffered physically and mentally have also begun to embark on an inexorable road..."

The beginning was okay, Naomi Watts still had curiosity on her face, but when she saw the specific storyline, especially the character lines, she immediately had the urge to throw the script away. This story is full of savagery Violent, bloody, the type she dislikes the most!

"Damn." About half an hour later, the Australian girl touched the script on the table, stretched out her white fingers, and pressed her forehead lightly.

"I thought you were transformed because of "Batman: Hour of War", but I didn't expect to make this kind of film again."

"Hmm." Wayne shrugged and stroked Fendi's head gently. "Tell me how you feel after watching it."

Recalling the entire plot setting, Naomi Watts kept simulating the scene in her mind, then frowned and said, "First of all, I have to say, I don't like this kind of film very much~www.novelhall.com ~Not friendly enough to women and teens either.”

Seeing that the big boy didn't care about her evaluation, she continued to talk about her feelings. "You set a little bit of the literary drama in the film. The whole story gives me the feeling that it is full of straightforward blood and violence, showing darkness and filth without the slightest scruples.

A large number of "tricks" made my heart skip a beat. Now, when I think about it carefully, I feel a perverted and hearty feeling. It's not like a Greenberg-style work that lacks the literary drama you're best at, or the multi-line storytelling that you're known for.

And those lines, oh my god, your movie will definitely be rated as the most swearing movie! Could it be that those men can't speak after leaving fxxk..."

Listening to the women's constant complaints, Wayne didn't care too much. To put it bluntly, this movie was not made for girls and teenagers, and naturally it was not very friendly to them.

He clearly remembered that the production cost of this film was about 90 million US dollars. After all, for various reasons, this film was too famous.

Different from the actor requirements of the old Martin version, it is very simple to save money when shooting. If you don't invite two Hollywood A-stars to play the leading role, the production cost will immediately shrink by more than half.

According to the views of ordinary movie fans in the past life, this film is definitely one of the biggest differences in aesthetics between the East and the West. There may be 90% of Eastern movie fans who can't understand this kind of shooting method without poetry, which is simply destroying the classics. .

However, it is such a savage, violent, bloody, and rude film that not only achieved a good success at the box office, but also achieved a lot of results at the Oscars.
