Hollywood legendary director

"What, boss, don't you shoot the "Iron Man" sequel?" Kevin Fitch was a little surprised.

This movie was planned for a long time, but what he said made him a little incomprehensible, but his attitude was indeed very firm.

You know, the boss's directorial ability, including the foundation of fans that he has laid over the years, can easily move the movie market. It is really Marvel's trump card. Unfortunately, this card can't be played...

For a while, Kevin was even a little worried about whether the sequel could continue the explosive temperament. Among these few projects, "Iron Man" sold the best, especially in the offline market, which was exceptionally good. Robert Jr. Downey's popularity can also be seen.

Lehman smiled, "The foundation has been laid. As long as there are no major problems with the framework and the understanding of audience positioning is not clear enough, there will be no trouble."

"In addition, regarding the role configuration for the first stage of the reunion, haven't we already determined it? You should have confidence in everyone." Lehman looked at each other with bright eyes.

"Boss, did you choose someone?" Kevin Fitch asked.

Lehman didn't answer, just handed it over with a resume, "No surprise, if he is willing to take over, he will be appointed."

Kevin took a look and found that the accompanying director's resume was not outstanding. At the age of 41, he had only filmed four feature films-"August 23", "Vortex", "Technology", including the joint debut "Cosmos", They are all movies that haven't exploded with much brilliance, even if it says that his rate of return is okay, but they are just ordinary directors with medium and low costs.

There are a lot of people like this in Hollywood. From above, Kevin can't see anything special, and he did ask that.

"Canadian director, Dennis Villeneuve?"

Lehman sat in the boss chair and said, "Don't look at him as if he didn't perform well, but he just didn't have a platform for him to play. He is a Canadian, and he lacks some contacts if he wants to mix with Hollywood, let alone. The Albatross Films, which admired him, is a studio that can set foot in Hollywood, and its capital reserves are not strong enough to play big productions.

It seems that he is actually quite qualified. He has made 4 movies, all of which are profitable. The themes are plot, crime, and horror. At least it proves that he can control mainstream Hollywood movies.

The other is his style. He likes to pave the way for clues. The narrative and details can be tightened without procrastination.In addition, entertainment can bring some serious thinking to the audience. Isn't this the director of "Iron Man 2"."

Of course Lehmann understands this stuff. Dennis Villeneuve is one of the rarest practising and overcoming obstacles along the way, becoming a representative of Hollywood foreign directors-"Arrival", "Blade Runner 2049", then This kind of grasps the scale between visual enjoyment and humanistic absurd very decently.

In layman's terms, this product can handle big scenes, and the literary drama is great. In addition, it has not been mixed for many years, and its personality has been polished to be very smooth. It is not to say that the filming is exceptionally tough, and the salary is not high.

In the past life, many film critics complained about the mistakes in the mirroring of certain sections of "Iron Man 2" and the subtle atmosphere between the characters.

Objectively speaking, Jon Feiru’s director ability is actually good, but his weakness is literary drama. As a commercial sequel, "Iron Man 2" is actually acceptable. The accumulated popularity of one movie was not successful, and the box office was almost the same as the first movie.

Of course, the reason why the first movie is not like this, and the reputation is higher, is because of the credit of the script setting and Downey's varied and close-to-temperament performances.

After all, Tony Stark's playboy personality was irrelevant at the beginning, naturally with room for reversal, and his entertainment was pulled up. At the end of the press conference, he publicly announced that he was Iron Man, which was even more paving. The long emotional outburst (referring to the audience) has formed a kind of "distance" effect. To be vulgar, it is forced to go up. The sense of substitution is very strong and cool.

Lehman, who is familiar with routines, knows very well what the audience's climax is. Either it is novel, anti-routine, or artificially enhances the drama conflict.

More common people like Superman, Spiderman, and Batman all face a deadly dark mind history. Their greatest enemy has always been themselves. As long as the mood is stable, they can defeat the enemy and be frustrated and counterattack.

But Iron Man in the second part can't play the reversal drama routine of the first one, plus Jon Fei's cheap American humor, and is not responsible for the function of threading the needle to guide the plot, playing for a while, and then Fighting for a while and making a fuss, then of course it will be a step backward from the previous game.

In other words, there is not enough contradiction or enemy to form a real confrontation with Iron Man, which sets off Tony Stark well and increases his upper limit of play.

Heroes also need "villains" to achieve success. The flogging of the second part is too thin. Tony's father Howard copied his father's technology. The motivation for revenge is not very persuasive. It is better to introduce the Hydra organization. That is, billionaire Justin Hammer is the boss behind the scenes, and the whip is just a poor tentative tool, so the sense of hierarchy is slightly smoother.

Still the same sentence, the earth has a pot of Hydra back, and the universe has a pot of sweet potato essence. This teases movie fans and enhances the fun of watching movies.

Of course, with such an arrangement, the director himself has to be good at controlling the integration of literary drama and special effects, and the rhythm must be natural. The place that should be cool is cool, and the place that should be padded will not waste the lens. It is silly to argue with each other.

According to the review, Dennis Villeneuve can meet these requirements, and it is not well-established, cheap, and of course a very handy filming tool.

"Don't worry, you still have a lot of time to contact him. It really doesn't work. It's a bit troublesome to change to another one, but it doesn't matter. In addition, the actors of Hawkeye and Black Widow need to be carefully selected. Remember, the premise is that they are willing to sign a long contract. As for the other supporting roles, it doesn’t matter. Choose some who have good acting skills and can support the scene."

"I will disclose the casting to the major brokerage companies. After the initial screening, I will conduct a careful investigation on them." Kevin Fitch didn't worry about anything, and soon stood on his own stand. Think about the problem.

"You can let the media follow up appropriately, or spread the news online."

"Then they will be crazy." Kevin Fitch smiled.

Now the whole Hollywood pays attention to Marvel's works. After all, the success of Downey, Ruffalo, Evans and others is a role model. If it is kept secret, the movement can be smaller.

"This is a big era, and I believe those actors will take good care of it." In addition to hype, Lehman's purpose actually also means lowering prices. After all, the fiercer the competition, it can also affect the choice of quotations. He has become more and more skilled in this matter.
