Chapter five hundred and seventieth shameless to the extreme

Please give me a monthly ticket and a recommendation ticket!

When the right opportunity appears in front of you and can create eye-catching topics, Murphy never hesitates, so the female reporter's words immediately made him interested, gave up those routine answers, and thought of a more suitable answer in a very short moment.

To be honest, "City of Chaos" has a good reputation, but it cannot get rid of the limitations of non-sequel original films. The box office growth does not seem to be consistent with the investment of production costs and the total $300 million in publicity and distribution costs.

Especially since tomorrow, the new week will begin, and "City of Chaos" will face the test of working days. If you don't create more topics in terms of publicity, you may face a sharp decline in box office after the first weekend, just like most original films.

It is normal for box office output to decline on weekdays, but if it drops from a single-day income of tens of millions of dollars to two or three million dollars, no one wants to see it.

Murphy threw out such an answer, of course, had his own purpose.

The female reporter was also very acclaimed and immediately asked curiously, "Why was the video prepared in the beginning? We have never seen a similar video released?"

"That was just a plan, and it was not implemented in the end." Murphy deliberately kept it a secret. "To be precise, it was the production company that rejected the plan."

For a director like him, everything that happens is news, not to mention that the movie plan has been rejected.

All the reporters present realized that this was a movie news that could cause waves, and were also curious about which production company it would reject a director's project like him.

Brad Hansbain, a reporter from The New York Times, asked, "Murphy, which company is it? Can you tell me?"

"Well..." Murphy seemed a little embarrassed, and didn't seem to want to talk much.

The female reporter urged, "Your movie fans must want to know about this."

Then another reporter started a cheer, "The public has the right to know!"

"yes!"

“Which company is it?”

There were a lot of questions around him, and Murphy raised his hand and made a downward gesture. When the sound around him became less, he said, "A few years ago, I'm going to work with Warner Bros...."

When all the reporters heard the name Warner Bros. Everyone with well-informed people know that although Murphy and Warner Bros. and DC Comics collaborated on the masterpiece "Man of Steel", the two sides were not very happy due to their pay and adaptation route.

Since the beginning, Murphy never thought about stopping, "How to say it? You should be able to see that "City of Chaos" is not a series of stories."

The reporters nodded slightly. This was already obvious in the video. James Franco's magician was specifically told that it was definitely not for the sake of making a fuss. The murderer behind the killing of Reiner seemed to be Jay Rachel's congressman's father, and this character has not yet achieved anything.

There is obviously another film, or even the next two, to form a complete trilogy.

Murphy changed the whole story, and he was not worried about having a copyright dispute with DC's comics. "I wrote this trilogy about "City of Chaos" to Batman at the earliest."

“What?”

"What?"

"Batman?"

"Batman trilogy?"

"He thought about adapting Batman?"

The reporters at the scene were in a commotion, and they seemed to have never expected that the name Batman would pop out of Murphy's mouth.

"Yes, it's Batman!" Murphy wanted this effect, continuing, "Although City of Chaos has changed a lot of story and plot than the project I prepared for Batman in the first place, the framework and theme of the film have not changed."

He smiled, "Actually, Batman's identity as the Dark Knight is very suitable for this video."

Those present were reporters who specialize in film and Hollywood, and they had some research on this industry. They thought about the male lead in "City of Chaos" and then thought about Mr. Bruce Wayne. If New York was replaced with Gotham, the master's setting was the same as Chris Dane, which was very suitable for the theme and atmosphere of this film.

In some aspects, the two characters are a little similar, such as both losing their father in childhood, but Bruce Wayne's father is a real good person, and Chris Dane's father is only a real good person in front of his son.

Murphy sighed long, "It's a pity that Warner Bros. thinks my adaptation completely overturns the comics, too dark and heavy, and rejects that plan, so I can only start a new job..."

Speaking of this, he shook his head vigorously, looking very regretful.

New York Times reporter Brad Hansbain asked again, "Murphy, can you talk about why Warner Bros. refused?"

"They think the story is too dark, heavy and depressing..." Murphy shrugged, "I don't know the rest, you're going to ask the Warner Bros. people."

Murphy winked, and Grace, who accompanied him, immediately stood up and said loudly, "This is all for today's interview. Thank you for your concern!"

Several bodyguards separated a passage and sent Murphy and Grace to the RV, while Gal Gadot and Margot Robbie were already waiting in the car.

"Grace," Murphy ordered, "notify Carafes and Bill of what he had just said and let them deal with it as appropriate."

He glanced at Margot Robbie, lowered his voice and said to Grace, "Notify our black fans organization to spread related news on the Internet, and we must make this topic buzz."

After he had an idea, he worked with CaA to form the originally loose online navy into a more professional black fan organization.

Professional black fans are more efficient and more targeted than online navy forces.

Moreover, since the development of North American Internet has reached this stage, since "The Witch Blair" in the 1990s, the Internet navy that Hollywood has been using has been somewhat backward, and more professional Internet hype tools are also indispensable for people like Murphy.

The video of Murphy's interview was uploaded to the oil-dumping bull almost the first time, and immediately attracted a lot of attention.

In just half an hour, the relevant information on social networking sites represented by Facebook and Twitter was also widely paid attention and reposted. In addition, Murphy's black fan organization joined the fire, the connection between "City of Chaos" and Batman and Warner Bros. quickly became a hot topic of discussion.

Murphy and Warner Bros. are the focus, and unfortunately, the latter basically became a villain, especially in the mouths of DC's fans.

A user named 'I Love Bruce Wayne' reposted the video of Murphy being interviewed and wrote on his Twitter, "I can imagine how wonderful it would be if this story happened to the master! Originally, Murphy Stanton might have given Batman a new life on the big screen, but was ruined by the group of pigs in Warner's management!"

A message on Facebook represents the voice of many DC fans. "Think about the excitement of "City of Chaos", and think about the glory that Clark Kent achieved through "Man of Steel". Bruce Wayne missed Murphy Stanton, which may be the biggest regret of Batman's life!"

Someone followed behind and said, "I feel sorry for the master!"

Another person who forwarded it wrote, "I broke my heart when I saw Murphy's interview today. I went to watch "City of Chaos" tonight to soothe my heart."

This is just a representative of it. Many DC fans who did not pay attention to "City of Chaos" had the most direct idea after reading these news and information, which was to buy tickets to go to the theater to watch this film. Murphy had brought the glory that the DC superhero movie had never been before, and they would not be disappointed after watching it.

Although Chris Dane and Bruce Wayne have a very obvious difference, the common dark attributes still make DC fans quite moved.

"If Chris Dane was replaced by Bruce Wayne, the whole story would definitely become even more heartbreaking!"

"Highly calling on Murphy to come back and continue directing DC's superhero movies, especially the reboot of the Batman movie, he will surely bring us a dark epic!"

Similar voices are emerging on social networking sites.

Warner Bros. and the senior executives of DC Comics have also become the targets of journalists and paparazzi pursuit. Regardless of whether they participated in the talks with Murphy, they would be asked why they rejected the "Batman" movie proposed by Murphy Stanton.

Some reporters even went to Warner Bros.'s premiere executive Bruce Rosenblum and asked him in person what he said, "When he saw "City of Chaos" has a huge reputation and the box office is quite good, do you regret rejecting Murphy Stanton?"

All of these annoyed Bruce Rosenbumm, but now he wants to take the blame from his ex.

In this series of word-of-mouth marketing and publicity hype, as a direct competitor of "City of Chaos" this weekend, "Thor" has received less and less attention, and it is inevitable that marginalization will occur. The actors who starred in "Thor" have received almost no positive reviews except being criticized for interviews and having no acting skills.

Natalie Portman, the most famous one, is no exception.

She said nothing that she had never expected that she would star in a commercial masterpiece again after many years, and she would get these things.

On Monday morning, Natalie Portman sat in the VIP restaurant at the Four Seasons Hotel, drinking skim milk while reading the newspaper that his assistant had just delivered. Seeing the hype about "City of Chaos", he always felt indescribable depression in his heart.
