On May 4, before the first weekend of May, "Iron Man" held a grand premiere at the Hollywood Chinese Theater, including digital X-Men such as Charlize Theron, Hugh Jackman and Patrick Stewart, as well as many Avengers members who have appeared, including Ryan, Scarlett Johnson, all of which have appeared at the premiere.

In addition to the male and female protagonists Robert Downey Jr. and Gwyneth Paltrow, who have overwhelmed everyone, the media's focus is also on Chris Hemsworth, who will play the male protagonist in the "Thor" plan that has been announced by Marvel.

Although this is an unknown Australian actor, judging from the current momentum of surprising star-making, as long as the film is released, it is very likely to become a mainstream commercial film star.

This Hammer Brother in his previous life is still living in the Australian TV circle. When the people sent by Ryan find him, he was almost knocked out by the big pie that fell from the world. As for the Hammer Brother who was destined to fall in love with him, he also reached an agreement with Jing, but because he was filming other movies, he could not appear here.

In addition to "Thor", Marvel is also starting to select the main creative team of "Avengers". Although this is just a standard Hollywood assembly line popcorn movie, the director still needs considerable skills to combine so many characters and elements into a film.

The candidate for surprise was Jon Favreau, but the fat man turned it off. He directly admitted that he did not have such ability.

Then the news came to Ryan, and he recommended Joss Weiden, the director in his previous life. However, the other party's resume made the surprise hesitate.

After all, he just screwed up Universal Pictures’ investment.

Speaking of Jos Whedon, his most famous work in the past must be "Buffy the Vampire Slayer". This series once had a huge impact among North American teenagers, but after entering the new century, the "Firefly", which he wrote and produced, encountered Waterloo.

In 2002, "Firefly" aired 11 episodes on Fox TV. It was cut off because of the chaotic setting structure and the poor ratings. Although it became popular for a while because of the DVD, Joss Weiden pulled from Universal Pictures to investing and filming the movie version, it was still a messy hodgepodge. Last year's box office also proved that there was something wrong with the idea of ​​Cowboy Western Science Fiction. In the words of Hollywood insiders, Joss Weiden ruined himself from the moment this idea appeared in his mind.

Whether it is Joss Weden's past works or "The Avengers" recommended by Ryan, they are all completely commercial works. In fact, there is no wonder that there are doubts about the surprise, because the box office of "Firefly" is too miserable, with a global box office of only a pitiful $38 million.

Such a box office is indeed not convincing, and he is shooting commercial movies rather than niche art films.

However, the surprise side did not completely exclude Jos Whedon and was in contact with him. This kind of large investment involving hundreds of millions of dollars is very normal. If they slap their heads, they will decide. I am afraid Ryan will consider whether it is time to replace the surprise senior management.

After all, no one will let a group of guys in the head take charge of nearly four billion US dollars for him.

"Hi Ska, you look..."

As soon as he entered the VIP lounge in the theater, Ryan saw the little fat girl Scarlett Johnson. "It seems that he has lost a lot of weight."

"Thank you, Ryan." Although Scarlett said he didn't care, no woman would care about her weight. "I have been losing weight and exercising recently. I also need to prepare for the sequel to "Hurricane Rescue"."

"I remember going to Istanbul to shoot on the spot."

Ryan followed Stan Lee who was passing by, and without waiting for him to speak, Charlize, wearing a moon-white evening dress, walked over. She seemed to hear the conversation between the two people, took Ryan's arm and interrupted, "I heard that it's your turn to rescue his father this time?"

"It's almost the same." Scarlett's eyes turned to Charlize, "Disney wants to release a sequel next year, and the script is written very quickly."

"By the way, Charlie," she said, "Do you have no new works this year?"

"There are a few scripts, and I haven't decided which one to take yet." Charlize shrugged his shoulders elegantly. "Now is a critical stage of CT development. The work is a bit busy, and I will attend next month's World Cup in Germany."

"It turns out that it's World Cup year again." Ryan rarely pays attention to this aspect in this life.

"You guys keep..." Scarlett waved to the other side, "I'll go and chat with Christine for a while."

Seeing Scarlett leave, Ryan simply walked towards the screening hall with Charlize, "Are you sleepy?"

"Not yet," Charlize leaned into his ear and whispered, "You have helped me solve most of the financial and publicity problems. Even I can't believe that CT can rise in less than two years."

Ryan just patted Charlize's hand lightly and said nothing.

In just over a year, the total sales of CT's candy and fashion products exceeded 150 million US dollars. Although it was backed by Disney, Charlize's own efforts cannot be ignored.

While greeting people, the two found their seats. After sitting down, Charlize asked, "Go to Germany together next month?"

"Do you have a lot of activities over there?" Ryan asked back.

"You know, the 2010 World Cup was held in my hometown." Charlize leaned closer, "I want to participate in a lot of promotions with the organizing committee in South Africa."

"Look at the time."

It is difficult for him to cast too much attention on football.

Like most superheroes in Marvel Comics, Iron Man is a hero with weaknesses. Tony Stark is an entrepreneur and a playboy who lives a dazzling life. Compared with the thin Hulk last year, the plot of the film can be described as ups and downs. The protagonist's complex multiple identities make the story thrilling and intertwined, which is quite exciting.

In addition, the protagonist's identity as a technical otaku will probably be recognized by a considerable number of viewers.

As a film full of black technology, special effects are another big selling point.

The dazzling high-tech display has become a highlight of this film, especially Tony Stark's private studio is full of various novel technologies. The special effects of the film are produced by Industrial Light Magic, and it successfully combines digital special effects and real images. It is definitely the highest level that Hollywood special effects technology can reach at present.

In the film, the transformation process of Iron Man is broken down, and even detailed how the components are matched and how joints are connected. The dazzling colors and rhythmic mechanical sounds form a unique viewing effect. The special effects of Iron Man breaking through the speed of sound and super-speed flying at high altitudes also reach a state of shocking the audience.

After all, the biggest selling point of this type of film is to use super popular special effects to create audio-visual and visual limits.

Of course, the film also has many novel plots, such as at the final press conference, Tony Stark faced countless reporters and said, "I am Iron Man"!

The era of hiding superheroes has passed, and a high-profile and ostentatious superhero was born.

This film is full of joy. Whether it is the plot, special effects, or the performances of several major actors, it is very pleasing. This can be seen from the extremely warm applause from ordinary audiences in the back row after the subtitles fell.

In today's era, the response speed of the Internet has long exceeded that of traditional media. Even the film critics with online columns are far less fast than those of netizens' comments on the Internet.

After all, those film critics also pay attention to art and connotation, while ordinary audiences only write about the most intuitive feelings after watching the movie.

“A very entertaining movie carnival.”

“Fast pace, humorous, and extremely entertaining.”

"This is a funny hero who loves to be stinky and chattering! The ending sentence '.man' is so handsome."

"This movie, adapted from Marvel, has absolutely dazzling equipment, exciting missions, eye-catching comedy effects."

Not only ordinary audiences, but also those relatively young film critics also appreciate the film. Claudia Pug, a famous female film critic who has always been deeply influenced by Disney's public relations, wrote this in the online column.

"Iron Man is a wonderful, moving, unusual superhero movie. Tony Stark integrates almost all men's dreams - money, status, sports cars, private jets, beauties, super high IQ, courage, and a sense of justice - of course, the most important thing is that he has a sense of reality that other superheroes do not have. Perhaps, Tony created not only his iron suit, but also a dream in the minds of every audience."

The Los Angeles Times on the next day was also not stingy with the praise of this video.

"Playboy, chatter, super genius, high-profile rich second generation, the success of "Iron Man" lies in subverting the past tradition of low-key, serious, serious, and incognito for superheroes, and fighting terrorists with their ultimate personal charm and a pure high-tech geek style, which is more in line with the current social situation in the United States."

As for Disney-owned media, they naturally want to promote the movie to the sky.

"A profit-oriented arms dealer, after encountering life changes and getting out of danger, becomes a philanthropist and a lone man who punishes evil. The plot of the film is vivid and wonderful, the actors are also very good at acting, and the level of using computer stunts is absolutely superb. This is not only a science fiction film, but also an inspirational film."
