The success of the two movies launched by Marvel Entertainment deeply stimulated Warner Bros. and DC Comics. These two companies have also accelerated the development of corresponding DC Comic-Model superhero movie projects. It's okay for Zach Schneider to go, "Watchmen" is advancing very quickly and will be released and released next year.

"Green Lantern", directed by Martin Campbell, was originally in preparation. Warner Bros. requires that the progress must be accelerated and filmed will be started in July at the latest and will be released next year.

Whether it was once, or now, when seeing Marvel superhero movies begin to become popular in North America and around the world, Warner Bros. have chosen a more radical approach to dealing with them.

In order to increase influence, Warner Bros. and DC Comics also announced plans for the first two films, with Green Lantern as the beginning of the series, and then the restarted version of Superman appeared to lay the overall situation!

As for what happened later, the two companies were busy catching up with Marvel's progress and had no plans for the time being.

In short, Warner Bros. was very anxious to catch up. Without long-term planning, he started "Green Lantern" and then took one step at a time.

After completing "Watchmen", Zach Schneider will fully intervene in the DC Justice League Cinema Universe Project and work with Charles Rowan and Diego Harris as the main person in charge.

Since Christopher Nolan has no intention of directing this series after the new Batman trilogy and will not continue to work with Warner Bros., the chances of Warner Bros. reusing Zach Schneider in the future will undoubtedly be greater.

Even, it might give Zach Schneider more full strength.

To be honest, Zach Schneider is not a bad movie director, but his personal style is extremely distinct.

But Ronan has worked with him and has also talked about some views on superhero movies. Just like shooting and producing "The Three Hundred Warriors of Sparta", Zach Schneider likes to follow the settings and plot of the comics.

This is not a good thing for the movie.

Ronan also moderately maintained his attention to Warner Bros. and DC Comics. Anyway, everything he should have done and the pit has been dug. Warner Bros. and DC Comics all fell down. Whether they can crawl out later depends on their own.

This week, Ronan took time to watch Christopher Nolan's crew. "Inception" has begun filming. The crew is currently filming on the streets of Los Angeles, and will go to many countries and regions such as the United Kingdom, France, island countries and Canada. It is not an exaggeration to say that it is a global shooting journey.

On the streets of Los Angeles, the crew occupied half of the street, and a specially made prop train was also pulled to the street by a tow truck.

"Cough...cough..."

Connie's cough came from behind, and Ronan turned around and asked, "Is it okay? I'm getting off the car and coughing."

Connie covered her mouth and said, "I don't know why, I feel a little choking."

The two happened to enter the director's command area where Christopher Nolan was located. He was fine now. He heard the words of Ronan and Connie and reminded: "The wildfire came again as promised."

After hearing what he said, Ronan remembered that after the summer began, the wildfires that burned every year started to burn in Los Angeles again.

Los Angeles is extremely hot this year, and the blazing sunlight seems to burn every inch of land. Due to the heat wave attack, a forest fire broke out on Mount San Gabriel, backed by Los Angeles, and the rolling smoke surged through the sky, making the nearby area even hotter dozens of miles, as if it was in a large baked stove.

The bad weather and the blazing forest fires have caused a lot of trouble to work and life in the Los Angeles area, and some companies near Mount San Gabriel simply took a vacation.

Ronan asked concernedly: "Will it affect the crew?"

Christopher Nolan said: "It shouldn't be the case. The crew will go to France after filming for a few more days."

After putting on makeup, Tom Cruise came over, and fanned with a fan while walking, saying, "It's only mid-May, it's so hot, and the weather is abnormal this year."

Ronan said: "Maybe the wildfire has added to the temperature."

The high temperature and distant wildfires cannot affect the crew's shooting. After the first three funds of the Pacific Investment Foundation totaled $60 million, the preparations for Inception entered the fast lane.

After chatting with Tom Cruise and Christopher Nolan, and mastering the overall progress of the crew, Ronan took the initiative to avoid affecting the normal work of the crew.

This film can be completed as early as May next year and will be released in the summer season. At that time, the Embassy Film Industry will look at the specific schedule and decide whether to be placed in the summer season or holiday season.

The most eye-catching thing on the set was not Tom Cruise, but the huge imax camera.

When filming "The Dark Knight", Christopher Nolan used an imax camera, but there are only three imax cameras at present, one of which was destroyed on the set of "The Dark Knight".

The crew of "Avatar" also partially used imax technology. The difference between "Dark Knight" and "Inception" is that Christopher Nolan will not use any 3D technology.

Ronan never said anything about this. Technology that can create huge commercial benefits is good technology, whether it is 2d or 3d, film or digital.

Besides, he had long known that Christopher Nolan was a firm 2D film party and had even become a leading figure in this field.

This is an original movie, and it can even be said to be the first original movie since Christopher Nolan's debut work "Following".

"Memory Fragments" and "Deadly Magic" are adaptations, "Day Chasing the Murder" comes from a remake of old movies, and the two "Batman" are typical comic-adapted superhero movies.

In fact, it is not difficult to see from this aspect that Christopher Nolan is a very smart and commercial director.

This director insists on originality, but does not stick to originality. He knows very well that the original genre of ordinary directors, screenwriters and even producers is not popular in Hollywood. The first thing he has entered the mainstream film industry is to adapt movies. Relying on the great success of adapting movies, he can win opportunities for originals that require great investment and big productions.

Even in "Inception", the script seems to be cloudy and fog, but Christopher Nolan's scene design is simple and clear. In his plan, this is a commercial movie that most viewers can basically understand without having to worry too much.

The success of this film was also the harmony between the rhythm of the story, the audience's understanding and the narrative structure of the film. In other words, it is not difficult to play against the timing and layered narrative. The difficulty is not to turn these elements into niche experimental movies. After the film is completed, the audience will not only be a confusing viewer, but will not completely lose interest in relieving the mystery. The film will definitely be a popular commercial film, which is the value of "Inception".

Christopher Nolan's entire concept is very clear. This is a commercial film with big investments and big productions. The real core of the film is mainstream commercial elements such as science fiction action, and the rest are derived from this basis.

In addition, the special effects team of Industrial Light and Magic has always provided various technical support to the crew.

Although he is a real-life madman, Christopher Nolan must rely on computer CGI to solve many special effects of this video.

In today's Hollywood, almost all large-scale commercial films are shot with computer special effects and real-life scenes. Special effects blockbusters with a investment of over 100 million US dollars without using CGI special effects lenses do not exist at all.

"The Dark Knight" is also used, but it's just a question of how much Christopher Nolan uses.

Many people used to be aware of Nolan's impression of this Junna was very film-crazy and extremely resistant to digital technology. From a certain perspective, this is correct, but this did not see the whole truth.

In fact, the cgi special effects were widely and even critically used in the production of the once "Inception".

The rewind Paris is one of the iconic shots of "Inception". If you don't explain it in detail, you can see that this is a scene generated by CGI.

The scene of this crazy train shooting on the streets of Los Angeles will also need to be processed through CGI later.

The weather became hotter and wildfires continued to rage in Southern California, just like the flood of drugs, it became a problem that the California government could never solve.

But the hot weather and raging wildfires cannot stop the enthusiasm of the audience in the summer film market.

The new weekend has arrived, and the movie "Thirteen Arhats" which brought together many big-name stars, was pushed into the theater by the production and distribution company Warner Bros.

This is also the end of the "Arhat" series.

The film brings together many stars including George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Don Chandel and Cassie Affleck.

In addition, the audience base brought by the first "Eleven Arhats" and the second "Twelve Arhats" are also one of the highly anticipated commercial productions this summer.

But there is one thing that cannot be ignored. Today, especially in the summer season, special effects blockbusters are more popular, and the golden age of "The Arhat" series has passed.

Moreover, this star is famous and truly has the first-line appeal. In fact, Matt Damon is the only one.

"Thirteen Arhats" earned only US$13.17 million on the first day of its release. Such a result is not much better than the film's lineup and investment.

The paintings in North America lasted for three days, and "Thirteen Arhats" earned only US$34.25 million, and it is expected that the total box office in North America will be just over US$100 million.

This film also missed the North American box office champion and could only be ranked second.

The box office trend of "The Hulk", which entered its second release weekend, was relatively stable, with an additional $35.71 million the following weekend, ranking first in the North American box office list.

Ten days after the release, the North American box office of this superhero movie has accumulated a total of US$123.56 million.

According to predictions from all aspects, the box office of "Hulk Hulk" in North America will inevitably reach more than US$200 million.
