America: Starting with the acquisition of MGM.

Chapter 323 321. Iron Man’s Own Track
"what"

"Huh. What did you do to me?"

"To save your life, I have removed as much shrapnel as possible from your body, but there is still some left. In order to prevent it from entering your heart, I used a car battery to make this, an electromagnet. With your IQ, you should be able to understand it at a glance."

"So these people kidnapped me for weapons?"

"What else? Now everyone knows that possessing Stark's latest weapon is equivalent to possessing hegemony!"

"I guess you didn't expect that one day you would be hit by a weapon you made."

"I just didn't expect that weapons would be sold to these people."

On the big screen, Tony Stark woke up from his simple hospital bed.

Painful memories came to mind one after another, and Robert Downey Jr. showed his superb acting skills in a short period of time.

One can tell at a glance that it hurts a lot, but as the proud Tony Stark, he has to endure it.

After visiting this secret base, Tony was even more shocked by the wide range of equipment produced by his own company.

In order to escape, Tony Stark took out the design drawings of Mark I.

The rugged appearance made many viewers excited. Are we going to get to the point? The armor was actually made here? But it doesn't look like what's in the trailer.

clang!
clang!
clang!
Tony hammered the patch again and again. Since he decided to quit his bad habit, Robert Downey Jr. has chosen a new hobby for himself.

Chinese Kung Fu, to be more precise, Wing Chun. After practicing for more than a year, not only were the bad habits suppressed, but I also developed a body of strong muscles.

At this time, he was wearing a somewhat dirty vest, with a sloppy beard on his face, sweat dripping from his muscles, and he looked quite romantic and sexy.

The female audience, in particular, couldn't help but nod their heads. Although this guy is a little older, he is still quite handsome.

"Remember the sound of iron hammering here, it marks the beginning of the Marvel Cinematic Universe."

Hearing Eric's words, Donnie curled his lips: "It was just a little troublesome during the filming. I almost got burned."

"It's worth it. I wonder how many actors are willing to get hurt in exchange for ten times the pay."

"Huh? Are you saying my salary will increase to $200 million?"

"Have some faith in yourself Donny, at least $500 million."

"Wow! That's a scary number."

The parts of Mark I were gradually completed, and taking advantage of the surveillance blind spots, the two men began to put on their equipment.

In the process, Ethan sacrificed himself to buy time for Stark.

In this scene, Robert Downey Jr. once again contributed top-notch acting skills, and his control of micro-expressions perfectly showed Stark's tangled heart.

He also said the word "thank you" for the first time, thanking Ethan for saving his life and his soul.

Then Mark I began to kill people in the terrorist base, showing his full appearance.

It is as rough as a tin can, with uneven chisel marks on the surface. Many linkage shafts and lines are exposed, highlighting a primitive style.

In the end, Stark destroyed all the weapons produced by his company in the base, fled in a hurry during the explosion, and was eventually found by Colonel Rhodes.

At the airport, Pepper Potts is waiting here, and Amy Adams fully expresses her emotions, excited, happy but restrained.

But after experiencing the ups and downs of life, he had no time to pay attention to Pepper and couldn't wait to hold a press conference.

"This trip to the Middle East has made me go through a lot, and I've thought a lot, and I've thought about my father, Howard Stark."

"If possible, I would like to ask him whether he has ever had any conflicts about becoming Stark Industries, and whether he has ever doubted the usefulness of the weapons he produces."

"I saw so many, countless people being killed, young people, women, children, old people, unarmed people."

“I realized that I was just a member of the privileged class with zero responsibility.”

"Mr. Stark, what on earth have you been through?"

"A lot. I realized that I should bring more and better things to the world instead of just exploding killing tools."

"Therefore, I am now officially announcing the indefinite closure of Stark Industries' weapons research and development department, effective immediately!"

The plot then enters the part where Tony develops Mark 2, which is full of Marvel-style humor.

As the armor was gradually improved, the audience's mood also became more excited.

Wow!

It wasn't until the armor took Tony high into the sky for the first time in its complete form that many screams were heard in movie theaters across the United States.

This feeling is completely different from superheroes like Spider-Man, X-Men, Blade, etc., who all rely on bloodline mutation.

Iron Man has taken a completely new path, with a sense of technology, mechanics and modernity that hits the sensitive points of every audience member.

It’s so novel and incredible that I can actually see this kind of scene on the big screen.

Adrenaline is surging along with Tony, so cool!
Upon learning that Stark Industries is still conducting arms deals, Iron Man enters actual combat for the first time.

The entire enemy force was destroyed with ease, showing the power of the armor to the fullest.

Many viewers thought of the Spider-Man movie which is still in theaters. If Peter Parker had come here, he would probably have failed here.

Between the street fighting scenes and this kind of battle with explosions throughout, the latter is obviously more stimulating to people's nerves.

Then we played a game with the US Air Force, and only two fighter planes came in the original version.

How can two be enough? It's too petty. The crew is too poor.

Eric called the Nevada base, and like the Transformers, he mobilized a fighter squadron, with 11 F22s forming crossfire, but he was still fooled by Iron Man.

Missiles are flying everywhere in the sky and crossfire is gushing out, making the audience's blood boil. This is the feeling they want to have.

At this point, the movie has been going on for more than an hour, and the big boss Obadestan reveals his true face, and the Iron Monger plan is launched.

He took the reactor from Tony's chest, which was equivalent to taking his heart, and left him alone to die.

In this scene, Robert Downey Jr. once again contributed superb acting skills. His face was as pale as a zombie, and the breath of death directly impacted everyone.

Especially this arrogant young man, who was crawling on the ground like a wild dog praying for life, his whole body trembling.

The background music is still the sound of thumping heartbeats. Although everyone knows that the protagonist will not die, the urgency of death still makes the audience breathless.

Until the previous generation reactor was reinstalled, the final battle arrived, Iron Man VS Iron Monger.

This part of the original version was actually not shot very well, still due to financial constraints, so the special effects and the intensity of the fighting can only be said to be disappointing.

Especially setting the background in the dark, anyone with a discerning eye can see that this is to save money, because darkness can cover up many flaws.

If you choose to shoot during the day, the level of sophistication of the various special effects will have to be raised to a higher level.

But is MGM short of money?
A huge investment of 1.5 million US dollars, combined with the inflation of various expenses, can be equivalent to 2 million US dollars in the future.

Shoot during the day, add extra time, use special effects, and do it hard! If you want to watch it, let the audience enjoy it.

So a hearty and exciting battle began.

Iron Monger is huge in size and has immense strength, and his fists, kicks, and weapons are extremely destructive.

Iron Man is small, flexible, resilient, and has a wide range of weapons.

Armor-piercing shells, jamming shells, infrared rays, and Maxim strafing.

The two fought from the ground to underground, and then from underground to the surface of the water to fight. Every second was not to be missed.

If anyone's cell phone dares to ring at this time, he will definitely be scolded.

In the end, with Tony's combination of force and wisdom, and with the assistance of Pepper Potts, he finally defeated Iron Monger.

The audience finally settled down and the movie came to its final scene.

"Some people suspect that I was involved in yesterday's accident, but this"

"I'm sorry Mr. Stark, do you think we would believe this story of robot bodyguards falling from the sky?"

"Well, I know it's a little unbelievable, but questioning the official explanation is one thing, and doubting that I'm a superhero and criticizing me is another."

"Mr. Stark, no one said you were a superhero."

"No? That's good, because I have a lot of bad habits and I'm obviously not a hero material."

"Tony, read from the script." Rhodes reminded in a low voice.

But if Tony Stark could read a script, he would not be Tony Stark anymore. He would be a cynical rich second-generation, an unconventional inventor, and a super genius who broke the rules.

Ultimately, he was an extremely unique person.

Looking at the manuscript in his hand, Tony's eyes changed slightly and he threw it aside.

"In fact, I am iron man!"

Dynamic music sounded and the movie ended with the figure of Iron Man.

As the lights came on, some people stood up and applauded first, and then gradually everyone started to applaud.

Even film critics who are not interested in superheroes have to admit that this is a very excellent commercial blockbuster.

It is also mixed with thoughts on war and peace, especially the plot about terrorists, which seems to allude to the current government.

It doesn't steal the show, but it's very good, which can not only meet the needs of ordinary audiences, but also impress professionals.

Iron Man is undoubtedly an excellent movie.

Many people sent their congratulations and encouragement to Robert Downey Jr., who accepted them with a smile, and seemed like a completely different person from Tony Stark.

"Look at the audience's reaction. I said your salary will increase by 500 million US dollars. Do you believe it now?"

"It seems to have a bit of a feel for it, as long as everyone is satisfied."

"Eric, how much do you think my pay could go up?"

Eric looked at Amy Adams and said, "As long as you continue to take on the role of Pepper Potts, you will definitely have a place as the highest paid female star in Hollywood."

"Really?" Amy Adams was a little bit unbelieving.

"Haha. It seems that you don't have enough confidence in the box office. Let's wait and see."

"Iron Man" has received so much attention that it is no exaggeration to say that it is the most watched movie in the Christmas season.

The more viewers there are, the faster the evaluation will come out.

Many viewers wrote down their feelings overnight after watching the film.

When Eric woke up, the Internet was flooded with movie reviews.

"Iron Man is undoubtedly the most enjoyable movie of this Christmas season. It's not the most profound, but it's the most enjoyable one you can watch. I love that armor."

"This is an unparalleled superhero movie. When watching it, you don't have to worry about being similar to other superheroes in the past. Iron Man is unique and has its own characteristics."

"Iron Man is a classic popcorn movie, full of passion, friendship, and a cocky but incredibly handsome Iron Man."

"After watching Iron Man, I dream of becoming Tony Stark. What should I do?"

“This is a hero who is funny, cocky and chatterbox! Especially the line “I am Iron Man” at the end is so cool!”

"The movie is very exciting, but what impressed me most was Robert Downey Jr.'s acting. He brought Tony Stark to life and completely restored the essence of the comics."

"Robert Downey Jr. is worthy of being nominated for the Oscar for Best Actor. He gave an astonishing performance, especially Stark's transformation and despair. I'm afraid he became one with the character."

"Eric Cooper is really good at using people. When the movie was being prepared, he chose Robert Downey Jr., a drug addict. No one was optimistic about him, but now everyone praises him for making a good choice. And Amy Adams, she is gentle and resolute, so beautiful."

"Although there have been mecha superheroes for a long time, such as Robocop, Iron Man is undoubtedly more stylish and more shining, and can bring an extraordinary visual enjoyment."

"I haven't read the comics, but this movie doesn't affect my understanding of the plot at all. I am a fan of Iron Man."

“I highly recommend Iron Man. When I walked out of the cinema, I kept replaying the process of Tony's transformation in my mind.”

The vast majority of the reviews Eric saw were positive. Although there were some who said the plot was old-fashioned, the minority couldn't stop the overwhelming number of people who commented.

Good word of mouth and positive reviews have already been formed, which will naturally drive more people to the cinema.

When the first day box office comes out, that will be the best proof.

"Iron Man" broke the record set by "Transformers" with a box office of 4150 million US dollars.

The average number of films sold in each of the 3945 theaters exceeded . It should be noted that the larger the scope of the screening, the smaller the number sold in each theater will be.

3945 theaters account for more than 90% of all theaters in the United States, and still managed to exceed viewers. You can imagine how crazy the audience is.

"Iron Man" has also become the movie with the best opening performance since the war began this year.

On the other hand, "The Chronicles of Narnia", which was urgently dispatched by Disney, is a commercial fantasy blockbuster that still has the support of book fans.

It was well shot, of good quality, and most of the feedback from viewers who had watched it was positive.

But unfortunately, too much of the audience has been diverted by "Iron Man", and most people will not choose to watch two movies in one day.

Especially for Mane's nervous teenagers, once a week is good enough.

Coupled with the fact that there are blockbusters such as "Inception", "Spider-Man 2", "The Incredibles" and "Assassins", the start of "The Chronicles of Narnia" can be described as a complete collapse.

More than 1600 million US dollars, this is a number that is enough to make Mickey Mouse tremble.

The balance begins to tilt!
