Chapter 398 Filming of "War God"

The style of "War God" is rather dark. This is not Mu Chen's idea alone, but the whole team's discussion.

Of course, it's just a dark style, not completely dark.

There is still a difference between the two.

However, even if it is darker, it will naturally have a strong Chinese style.

In the film, it is natural that some Chinese values ​​are mixed in.

This is also the same as Hollywood blockbusters like to mix some American values.

It is impossible for "War God" to capture the "immortal spirit" of "Sword Immortal"!
In the film, it is also impossible to create a fairyland scene like Bashu Secret Realm.

However, there is no fairyland scene, but the horror of hell has revealed the tip of the iceberg.

But the devil in hell is sinister and cruel.

This makes this film lose a little bit of "immortal spirit", but a little more "ghost spirit".

At the launch conference of "War God", those media reporters naturally wouldn't focus on Mu Chen alone.

Mu Chen would not let the media reporters revolve around him alone.

After answering a few questions, he turned the topic to Mu Ze and the others.

Mu Ze's attention was naturally second only to Mu Chen at the press conference.

Whether it is foreign media or domestic media.

However, Zhang Yao and others obviously will not be ignored.

With his wonderful performance in "Sword Fairy", Zhang Yao is now also a very popular superhero.

At least, compared to North America, the director of S.H.I.E.L.D. is much more popular.

Even abroad.

Even, it is much taller than that Hawkeye.

The strong are often more popular.

Moreover, the director of the Special Administration Bureau is always played by Zhang Yao in an unpredictable manner.

He seems undefeated.

Fans have all guessed that the director played by Zhang Yao is definitely a master in the world of superhero movies like Mu Chen.

Not to mention Zhang Yao, even though the role played by Yuan Cheng is not very strong, he has a quite wonderful performance in "Sword Fairy".

Now with this role, the popularity has risen a lot.

In "War God", he also has a lot of roles, and he is quite brilliant.

It is estimated that after the release of this film, his popularity will rise a little more.

In the film, there are naturally other main characters, but they did not participate in the launch conference.

For example, the heroine's father, the master of Chinese martial arts who taught Mu Ze many martial arts.

This role is played by Ye Zhizhen.

And the other character is naturally the master of Mu Ze and Zhang Yao.

This role was played by Gao Hua.

The opening press conference was a toss for a long time, and after the end, the filming started immediately.

The plot of "War God" is different from "Sword Fairy".

"Sword Immortal" is an ordinary person stepping into the world of practice, but "War God" is just the opposite, it is a person of practice stepping into the mortal world from the world of practice.

The plot of "War God" is not complicated.

It is also impossible for this kind of superhero movie to be filmed in such a way that the plot is brain-burning.

The hell devil breaks through the barrier and rushes into the human world. The protagonist is ordered to go down the mountain to search, meets the heroine, and then learns Chinese martial arts. Inspired by this, he evolves the magical skill that can only defend into a magical skill that is both offensive and defensive.

Of course, the main line of the film is the soul gem on the heroine's neck.

This gem is also mentioned in "The Avengers".

In addition, there is another big difference between this film and "Sword Fairy", that is, there is an emotional scene.

In "Sword Fairy", Li Ruoxi didn't arrange any boyfriend.

Perhaps, in the future sequels, she will not arrange a boyfriend or something.

As to why this is the case, speculation continues.

Some people say it's the heroine's character setting, but more people think that Mu Chen doesn't want to arrange emotional scenes for Li Ruoxi.

As for why, there was no response.

There are emotional dramas in "War God".

Mu Chen is not very good at emotional drama, but he is no stranger to it.

The relationship between the male and female protagonists is integrated into the plot, and it is also gradual and does not seem abrupt.

This is a purely commercial blockbuster, and the plot rhythm will naturally not procrastinate.

If the emotional drama affects the rhythm of the plot, in Mu Chen's opinion, it's better not to.

In Mu Chen's view, commercial films are not moving, but enjoyable to watch!
After all, this is a superhero movie, not a romance.

Naturally, a superhero movie can't do without the world's best fighting scenes.

At the beginning of the film, the devil breaks through the barrier and wants to rush into the world.

Naturally, a fight is indispensable, and it is still a big scene.

It's rare to see a movie with a big scene at the beginning of the movie.

And this scene also made the protagonist realize his own shortcomings.

For example, the defense is amazing, but the attack power is weak.

In this big drama, the protagonist is just making soy sauce, but the real main force is the master of the protagonist.

But Mu Chen's setting for this role is to be the same master as Bai Mei, the head of the Shushan Sword Sect.Moreover, conclusions can be drawn from the dialogue between Baimei and Zhang Yao in "Sword Fairy".

The two know each other!

This is the first play.

Of course, the broken barrier is only a corner, and the number of devils that come out is limited.

Naturally, this scene cannot steal the limelight of the final decisive battle.

In the film, there is a scene where Mu Ze learns martial arts, so of course there are related fighting scenes.

However, there are not many roles in this scene, and the contest is also straightforward.

In addition, the battle between the magic general (Gu Feng) who sneaked into the world and the master of the Special Administration Bureau (Yuan Cheng) and others.

The fight between the Demon General and Zhang Yao.

The fight between the Demon General and Mu Ze.

The fight between Mu Ze and Yuan Cheng, etc.

Of course, the highlight was the decisive battle after the barrier was broken and a large number of demons rushed out of hell.

It is naturally impossible to play a film from beginning to end, and there must be some foreshadowing.

Just get the rhythm right.

And in terms of rhythm control, Mu Chen is definitely a master now.

In the film, the abilities of many characters naturally do not need to be set, as long as the corresponding actions are designed in conjunction with the film.

For example, the abilities of the protagonist Mu Ze, Zhang Yao's abilities, and Yuan Cheng's abilities have all appeared in other films.

But what really bothers this film is the ability of those hell devils, as well as the action design.

Of course, the image design of those devils is also extremely important.

However, these have been designed during the preparation, and there is no need to rush after the shooting starts.

Even Gu Feng and the others took the time to train accordingly.

Compared with "Sword Fairy", "War God" has more live-action shooting.

After all, there should be more urban dramas.

Of course, there are naturally many shots in the studio.

For example, in the scene of Kunlun, it is impossible for Mu Chen and the others to actually go to Kunlun Mountain to film scenes.

What's more, in the final decisive battle, there is still the shadow of the military.

It is even more impossible for him to pull the army to Kunlun Mountain.

As for why there is an army?

In the setting of the Kunlun School, the number of successors can be described as thin.

There are only three people at full count.

The devil rushed out of hell, naturally overwhelming.

With only the three of them, plus some experts from the Special Administration Bureau, how could it be done.

Although there are also some formations in it, but unlike the sword formation of Shushan Sword Sect, Kunlun's formation is more defensive.

Therefore, in the final decisive battle, the army participated.

In addition to the army, there are also sword immortals from the Shushan Sword Sect.

The devil is about to rush out of hell, so Zhang Yao, the director of the Special Administration Bureau, naturally has to ask for help everywhere.

If he does not ask for help, then it is his dereliction of duty.

However, Li Ruoxi will not appear.

She is in seclusion at this time, comprehending Wan Jian to return to the sect.

Therefore, Qinglian Sword Immortal played by Zhen Pei and Peng Mi also appeared.

Li Ruoxi didn't appear on the stage, more because she was afraid of being a distraction.

In addition, practitioners of the mage lineage will also be drawn out.

It also laid the groundwork for Su Xiaowan's "Mage".

In the film, mages will naturally appear.

In the end, the heroine left with her and went to "Tianshan" to practice.

The mage resident, Mu Chen was placed on Tianshan Mountain.

This is the result of the discussion.

The land of mages includes many famous mountains and rivers in China.

For example, Mount Tai and other five mountains, Changbai Mountain, Longhu Mountain and so on.

In the end it was placed in Tianshan.

After all, Tianshan has the legend of the Queen Mother of the West.

What's more, the scenery of Tianshan Mountain is still extremely good.

This is a comprehensive consideration.

The mage who appeared last in "War God" is naturally an important supporting role in the movie "Mage".Naturally, Mu Chen would not take advantage of others, and still insisted on the principle of giving priority to contracted artists of Chenxi Film and Television.

The one who plays the sorcerer is Fan Juanqiong, the sister Pomegranate in "Tang Bohu Spots the Autumn Fragrance".

After Fan Juanqiong signed with Chenxi Film and Television, her development is still good, but it is not very good.

Now, she may not be well-known in the movie circle, but she is more or less a celebrity in the TV circle.

She has starred in several TV series, both good and bad.

Chenxi Film and Television has also been popular, but it is a pity that it has not been popular, and now it is still in the second line.

Of course, she has never been short of resources in Chenxi Film and Television.

She had already shed the image of "Sister Pomegranate", otherwise Mu Chen would not have dared to let her play this role.

The mage she plays is also the master of Su Xiaowan's role.

This character is upright and awe-inspiring, completely different from "Sister Pomegranate".

There are experts to help, but after all, the number is too small.Therefore, the army is indispensable.

Of course, whether it's a sword fairy, a mage, or something, they may have a wonderful performance, but they are not the protagonists after all, and they will definitely not steal the show.

Therefore, it is the protagonist Mu Ze who turns things around in the end.

He is naturally the most prominent in it.

Mu Chen shot the exterior scenes first, while the city scenes were mostly shot in Yanjing and Shanghai.

While Mu Chen was filming "War God", "Thor 2" was released worldwide.

Among the many superheroes, Thor is not low in popularity, and his second solo movie is naturally attracting attention.

Today, the super movie world created by Mu Chen has become a money-absorbing weapon.

As long as the filming is not too bad, the box office will not be too bad.

Is "Thor 2" bad?
Naturally not bad!

Therefore, after the film was released, the box office showed a booming trend.

However, compared to Mu Chen's "Sword Immortal", it was a bit less popular.

It is probably no problem to surpass the box office of the first film, but it is impossible to compare with the box office of "Sword Immortal".

The topic of "Thor is not as good as a sword fairy" came out immediately, causing great controversy.

Of course, in the debate, the most accepted statement is: it's not that Thor is inferior to Sword Immortal, but the director of "Thor" is inferior to Mu Chen, the director of "Sword Immortal".

How many directors in the world can be compared with Mu Chen?
