Chapter 860: The opening is full of nobody

The trailer began to play, and the messy venue was instantly quiet. Everyone was staring at the alloy screen in front of the venue, afraid of missing any shot.

As the editor-in-chief of the Los Angeles Times entertainment edition, Sally naturally sat in the front row of the media seat, crossing her arms and watching this mysterious trailer seriously.

The trailer opens with the dark background of Warner 1ogo logo and the Dark Knight, and then the picture shows Batman's iconic Gotham architecture and cityscape, with subtitles showing: Each hero has his own journey.

Then, Bruce Wayne appears, walking in a village, looking like he is pursuing the whereabouts of the villain.

The subtitles continue to be typed: every hero has his own end.

The voice of the ninja master of the villain Ninja Group sounded outside the painting at this time: If you make yourself more than just a person, if you piously stick to your ideals, then you will change completely qualitatively, and you will become a legend, Mr. Wayne, a legend!

The camera turned to a hospital bed, and Sheriff Jim Gordon, played by Gary Oldman, lying on the bed, looking injured, with a very painful expression and voice. He said to the person opposite him: "We used to fight side by side, and then you left, but now the evil forces are unfolding, and it's time for Batman to come."

At this time, Gordon's voice was painful and depressing.

The person opposite who never appeared in the camera replied: "What if he no longer exists?"

This seems to be echoing the end of the second part?

Sarah couldn't help but hold up her chin. At the end of the Dark Knight, Batman became a departing warrior and a hidden hero, but the actors, photographers and screenwriters had already expressed more or less in the interview: Duke's Batman trilogy is a complete series, and the third part's summary and echo of the first two parts will become an indispensable focus.

The previous conversation has no plot connection, which seems a bit meaningful. Next is the quick cut camera to reveal a little information, such as Batman's motorcycle, Gordon's signature to destroy Batman, and the face of the villain "Bain the Destroyer" in this episode appears in the fast flash clip.

Then, the camera reached the footage on the poster that had been clothed before: crumbling tall buildings, devastated industrial cities, and a bright Batman look. The camera gradually narrowed to the bright color, showing the title in the flashing white.

After watching this trailer, Sarah couldn't help but remember the original Batman: at the beginning of the war, the poster of the film also used huge bats to cover Gotham. However, the poster was an orange background and graphic design, and in the final poster, Batman would face a collapsed Gotham of the doomsday.

Every hero has his own journey and beginning: why we fall, because in this way we learn to stand up; every hero also has his own end: it doesn’t matter who you are, what matters is what you do.

It's not the end. It's the beginning of the propaganda explosion of the Dark Knight Rises.

With half a month left before the film was released, Warner launched a final 13-minute production special. For fans who are eager to understand all aspects of the film's production, this video is the ultimate meal that can satisfy their appetite.

In the special series, Duke and the main creators behind the film and all the leading actors appeared to explain in detail the film's content from the story to the special shooting, set construction, special effects production, large-scale scene shooting, etc., which contains a large number of unprecedented sets, work photos, etc.

In addition, fans can also go to the official website of the Dark Knight Rises to download a 49-page official production notes, including cast and crew interviews, modified lines, video design drawings, etc.

In addition, the Dark Knight Rises also held a media screening in North America, and the film received unanimous praise from the live media. Warner Bros. has also announced that the film will be available in 6 overseas markets with North America on its first weekend in May.

Of course, the rise of the Dark Knight cannot gain everyone's favor, and some people criticize the film as a silly and stupid Hollywood industrial assembly line product.

Duke never denies this. Since his career, almost all of his films have been assembly line products. Not to mention these big commercial productions, those Oscars and the Shawshank redemption that have been praised by niche fans, who are not the output of Hollywood industrial assembly line?

Warner Bros. has spared no effort in promoting the rise of the Dark Knights. In fact, since many years ago, major film companies in Horay have developed a blockbuster mentality. That is, second-level films are treated as first-level films, vigorously promoted, fully released, and earn huge profits.

As the summer season is about to begin, another summer movie season is coming, accompanied by audiences full of literary and artistic complaints about sequels, heroes and special effects. They complained about the film while queuing in line to buy tickets to watch it.

In their mouths, all commercial films are brainless.

In pursuing the long summer movie season, these people must have consistently identified scapegoats. Steven Spielberg's Great White Sharks and George Lucas's Star Wars two years later.

The Great White Jaws are not the first film to be fully released in North America.

In 1971, Billy Jack was released in 12oo cinemas, far exceeding the 465 of Great White Sharks.

Star Wars was released in 43 theaters, which is a popular film in 1977 in today's terms. However, these two films did exceed $100 million at the earliest. They set a precedent for "movie viewing as a thrilling journey", attracting people to watch repeatedly, which is beyond the reach of the godfather.

No matter what people who hate commercial films say, there is no doubt that the success of the Great White Sharks and Star Wars is the latter's influence directly kills all the Oscars best films, and even the name can be used by one country as a strategy to fool another country.

After so many years of exhibitions in the summer films, there is a clear pattern.

For example, your current size is very important.

In the Jurassic World that Duke once saw, Tyrannosaurus Rex gave way to the larger and stronger Tyrannosaurus Rex because, as one character in the film said: "No one fussed about dinosaurs anymore."

The first episode of Jurassic Park is obviously different. The star that was shot in it was not the Tyrannosaurus Rex, but the much smaller velociraptor, who is smart, runs fast and has strong lethality.

The first generation of blockbusters consisted of stories such as David and Goliath, fighting against the size of the zodiac with degree and strategy, and the winning one was degree and strategy.

Spielberg arranged all physically weak people in the Great White Sharks, and Star Wars is also a hymn for a small man.

Just like Jurassic Park and Jurassic World, the commercial masterpieces of the 190s are obviously different from those after the new century. It can be said that the previous commercial blockbusters are as rich in American characteristics as Apple Pie.

When Jurassic Park was released in France in 1993, the French Minister of Culture declared it a "threat to the national characteristics of France" and said that every Frenchman has a "patriotic responsibility" to boycott this movie and watch the beginning of French era films.

But a year later, Hollywood's overseas profit exceeded domestic profits.

Nowadays, more than half of the profits of movies like Transformers 2: The Return of the Moon and Transformers 3: The Moon Darkness come from overseas.

According to relevant data obtained by Duke, China, the world's fastest growing film market, is expected to Vietnam in North America in 2O2O, and Hollywood is adjusting and promoting its shooting plans accordingly.

The Chinese officials in the script of Iron Man 3 are less vicious. There are some Chinese banks and other brands implanted advertisements in the Transformers series. Godzilla and monsters in the Pacific Rim traveled to major cities along the Pacific coast. Why is this? Because China opens about ten new theaters every day.

Hollywood's business strategies are constantly changing, and if they cannot be grasped in time, they will suffer a fall.

For example, David Ellison has always believed that blockbusters are for boys, but there has not been any changes in the market in recent years, which directly leads to insufficient stamina of the degree and passion 5.

In the past, there was a fanatical fan of Hollywood (anboy) who specifically described core consumer customers. From this name, we can also see what gender these people mainly regard.

These are science fiction fans who collect related products and arrange DVDs alphabetically, with pale faces and don't like to shake hands with others. It is said that they can walk out of their homes filled with Nintendo game consoles to make Marvel's new films top in one fell swoop.

Indeed, since Star Wars, major film companies have targeted teenage boys, and Michael Bay has said, “I made movies for teenage boys.”

But that was before the Twilight City was released, and the misconception that only boys could make blockbusters famous is now frequently shattered. Nearly two-thirds of the audience are women in films such as the Hunger Games.

However, do these blockbusters really mean brainless?

"The beginning was full of unknown people, and in the end they were all heroes.

At this year's Oscar, the director who was rejected by Duke finally won the Oscar for Best Director with his early appearance of Birdman. In the film, he called the comic film "cultural extinction".

This video is very average in terms of quality and content, and the comments from audiences and even professional film critics are not good.

Its victory just reflects that the Academy's prejudice against box office blockbusters is deeply rooted.

Oscars may always mistake themselves for the Nobel Peace Prize and despise blockbusters to cater to the least common denominator, but how much is the essential difference between the things produced by the Hollywood assembly line?

To put it bluntly, they are all assembly line products. The only different business is to cater to the public, while Oscars cater to the niche.

Pastimes that don’t use your brain today often become a favorite classic tomorrow.

Inception is as clever as a watchmaker in the movie. The inspiring film production of crazy Max is no less than any other film in the past. Pixar's artistic, skillful and attentive filming is not inferior to any Oscar winner (to be continued.)
