Hollywood Road

Ask for a recommendation ticket! Ask for a monthly pass!

In recent years, with the development of digital technology, in movies with many special effects, almost any place where special effects are displayed, the speed has to be slower, for fear that the audience will not be able to see the exquisite model, the details of the texture, and the powerful ray tracing rendering. , But often when it is slow, it looks fake. This is the consequence of showing off skills.

Murphy sometimes wonders whether this is the director’s problem or the special effects company’s problem. Special effects companies will show off their skills in order to show their technology. If you are a director, you should always be aware that technology is a means of telling stories and special effects have the greatest effect. , Is used to complete an ideal shot in the mind of a director.

If a director wants to show off his skills, he should do commercials.

"David, the light is 30 degrees to the left, dim it slightly."

In the studio, Murphy observed the brightness of the light on the shooting scene through the camera lens, and when David Robbie adjusted to a suitable angle, he immediately said loudly, "Okay! Keep the current effect, the actors are ready, and start shooting in five minutes."

When the time came, the shooting started again, and Nicholas Cage with a shiny bald head appeared first in front of the camera.

"Who am I? I am the one to end you!" Before the green screen, he looked at Chris Evans in a Superman uniform. "I am Lex Luther, a billionaire! A business tycoon! A philanthropist. !inventor!"

His expression was a little crazy, as if he was crazy, "The smartest man on the planet!"

Chris Evans folded his arms and looked at him, "You lost!"

"Do you think I will pin the hopes of mankind on a machine?" Nicholas Cage was even more mad, and he shook his fingers. "No!"

There was no action on the other side, and Chris Evans still had that expression.

"Don't look at me like this." Nicholas Cage suddenly returned to his normal appearance and shrugged, "I will not put the hope of mankind on you..."

He pointed to Chris Evans and said loudly, "On an alien monster!"

"You do not belong to this world!" This scene is entirely a moment when Nicholas Cage is performing, "You are here, the greatest threat to the earth! Your existence weakens the potential of mankind!"

During the filming, Nicholas Cage's performance was extremely unstable, always good and bad, and then broke out again.

Now is undoubtedly the moment when his acting skills explode, "Human beings are the greatest existence in this world, as long as human beings can evolve again..."

He suddenly turned his head and pointed to the back, "I have found the password for human beings to enter again through the key sent from your world. Human beings need faith, but don't want the **** of faith to show up!"

Nicholas Cage turned around and walked to the main camera and said loudly, "Since the Kryptonians can't kill the Kryptonians, let the evolved humans do it for you!"

"The most perfect combination of genes." Nicholas Cage stretched out his arms, like a devout believer welcoming the true **** in his heart, raised his head and said, "I was born to destroy monsters like you on the earth!"

He turned and pointed at Chris Evans and said, "Judgment day for you and all the monsters is here!"

"Stop! This one is over." Murphy left behind the camera and said to the assistant who followed. "Transition, and shoot the next one in thirty minutes."

The filming of the scenes in the studio was quite compact, and the crew quickly moved to another studio next to it, which has been built into a high-level command of the US military.

Thirty minutes have just passed. After Murphy nodded, a scene marker put the scene card in front of the camera lens, "The one hundred and twenty-third scene, the fifty-fifth scene, now begins."

The command room was full of people, and the focus was on the two generals. They looked at the green screen instead of the display screen, arguing about whether to launch an attack.

"Mr. President." The middle-aged brown-haired actor said to a communicator, "The target has now left the metropolis and is flying into space. I suggest launching a nuclear bomb immediately!"

"There is also Superman in the target!" The black general apparently had the opposite opinion, "Superman is on our side!"

The brown-haired general stood up and asked loudly, "On our side? The hundreds of innocent people who died in the town he destroyed would think that Superman was on our side?"

"That was the accidental injury of the war." The black general defended Superman. "If he doesn't take action, there will only be more casualties..."

"He is not human." The brown-haired general only said.

The phone played out an earlier recording, "May God bless America, and may God bless us all by launching Devil One."

This scene can be regarded as the smoothest and cleanest nuclear launch ever in Hollywood.

Throughout the history of Hollywood, since the birth of nuclear weapons, there have been countless movies related to nuclear bombs, but after watching them, it is not difficult to find that 99% of them are just gimmicks to set off the theme and plot of the film. , It will not be launched at all, the other 10%, nuclear bombs may be launched, but the possibility of landing explosion is very small.

Regardless of the villain or the protagonist who is capable of surpassing normal human beings, a nuclear bomb has a similar meaning to its existence in the human world. It is more of a deterrent. Hollywood films rarely break the bottom line of launching an explosion.

But Murphy is different. This "Man of Steel" does not take the usual path, as the plot is only based on comics, and most of the content has nothing to do with the comics that have been born. In some scenes and shots, he needs what It is to break, not to stick to the cage.

According to the film’s setting, it is also most reasonable for the U.S. military and the federal government to bomb Superman and villain BOSS with nuclear bombs. Both have demonstrated the ability to surpass humanity and resemble God. Thinking from the government’s thinking, this kind of totally different Why should we keep the people and abilities under control? Isn't keeping it a problem for yourself?

Even Superman who seems to be standing with humans is the same.

Moreover, the action scenes in the film have broken the so-called "ethical bottom line" of Hollywood action movies. In another action scene before the ending war, the battle between Superman and another villain did protect a lot of humans, but both The destructive power is too amazing, accidental injury is inevitable.

From this perspective, it is not completely incomprehensible for the government and the US military to deal with Superman.

This is also one of the themes that Murphy wants to reflect. Whether it is ordinary people or super-powered heroes, there are two sides, and the source of the panic side that troubles Superman and Superman to this society comes from his ability.

Similar questions cannot be answered simply by the “bigger ability, the greater the responsibility” of the simple aging.

In "Man of Steel", it is not the big boss who is the villain that brings the greatest confusion to Superman, but ordinary humans.

Soon it was noon, and the filming ended temporarily. Most of the crew chose to dine in an Italian restaurant near the Warner Studios. Since Murphy still had work to deal with, he would be able to come out later. Gal Gadot was in the restaurant. Sit at a table with Chris Evans and Nicholas Cage.

The three protagonists were eating and chatting, and the topic was naturally inseparable from the movie being shot now.

"Have you found that Murphy is very partial." Chris Evans complained jokingly, "Superman will be troubled by many troubles, and Wonder Woman is firm and doesn't have so many messy problems around him."

Gal Gadot shrugged, but said nothing.

Nicholas Cage spoke instead, "This is because Wonder Woman is only a cameo in this film, and Superman is the absolute protagonist."

"I don't think it's fair." Chris Evans shook his head and looked at Gal Gadot. "Gail only needs to show the most beautiful side, and I have to study Superman's psychology..."

"It's not me who really shows off beautiful." Gal Gadot said casually.

Chris Evans and Nicholas Cage laughed at the same time. Although they have different personalities, in fact, apart from work, there is not much overlap, but when it comes to these, men always have the same opinion.

The little fox in the crew has kept them peeking for a long time, but it's a pity that it feels even more tiring to see what you can't eat.

Megan Fox is very uncomfortable, probably because he has learned enough experience from the "Transformers" crew. He neither gets close to the director of Murphy, but also keeps a certain distance from other starring actors. Maybe the same **** repels, even if the same. For the beautiful girl Gal Gadot, she rarely pays attention.

"Stop talking about her..." The topic returned to the movie, and Chris Evans said again, "Did you not find out? In fact, Wonder Woman is quite different from Superman."

Gal Gadot and Nicholas Cage looked at him, waiting for Chris Evans to say the answer.

Sure enough, Chris Evans then said, "Wonder Woman does not have an enemy who can be called a rival."

He continued, “We all know that Superman’s mortal enemy is Lex Luther, Batman’s mortal enemy is the Joker, Captain America’s mortal enemy is the Red Skull, and Spider-Man’s mortal enemies are the Green Devils, Doctor Octopus, Venom, etc. But as There is not one of the greatest and most famous heroines in American comics. Wonder Woman’s nominal rival is still the leopard girl who has changed for generations and you can’t remember which is which."

"Well, I think so too."

In order to play the role of Wonder Woman, Gal Gadot read related comics, "Whether it is Catwoman, Ares and Circe the Witch, the sense of existence is too weak, and Silver Swan and Angle Man etc. The villains have played too few times, they are just passersby."

Chris Evans suddenly looked at Gal Gadot's back and said, "Murphy is here."

While talking, Murphy had already come to Gal Gadot, pulled a chair and sat down, beckoned to call the waiter, casually ordered some Italian food, and asked, "What are you discussing? You were very happy to talk about it." ."

"Wonder Woman's enemy..." Gal Gadot said briefly.

After listening to her, Murphy shrugged, "Let me summarize the reason why Wonder Woman has no enemies."
