1027 Super Mashup

With the success of "Iron Man" and "Hulk Hulk" in the film market one after another, Marvel Entertainment has truly come back to life and created a bankrupt counterattack myth.

An entertainment empire with superheroes as the protagonists began to rise, leading the trend of popular culture, making superheroes no longer subcultures of otaku geeks, and no longer box office poisons that producers avoid.

After being acquired by Relativity Entertainment, Marvel Entertainment, which was either completely finished or rebounded from the bottom, completed its own icebreaking path.

What Marvel Entertainment will do next will be a stunning screen legend - gathering members of the Women's Federation to shake the film market.

Superheroes have changed from vulgarity to popular, and Marvel themes have also changed from hot potatoes to box office pharmacies.

But the sons sold by Marvel then still lived under the power of their stepfather and wanted to go home for a long time without returning.

Ronan and James Murdoch reached an agreement on the surface, and looked kind-hearted that anything was easy to talk about.

In fact, when the two negotiating teams of Relativity Entertainment and Twentieth Century Fox sat at the negotiating table again, everything became extremely difficult again.

X-Men and Fantastic Four are still floating outside.

In addition, Twentieth Century Fox also holds the copyrights of street superheroes including Daredevil and Erica.

Despite the box office failure of "Darkward" and "Erika", Twentieth Century Fox would rather make a bad movie within the contract period than return the copyrights of these superheroes to Marvel Entertainment.

This is destined to be a war in which the sons want to return home and take down the other party's company.

In comparison, the situation on Spider-Man is better.

Sony Columbia Pictures reached an agreement with Relativity Entertainment, and Marvel Entertainment enjoys more share of the "Spider-Man" movie.

At present, not counting the release of "Spider-Man 3", Marvel Entertainment has obtained a profit share of $65 million from two Spider-Man movies.

On the other hand, Sony Columbia Pictures is willing to pay Marvel Entertainment so much money, which is enough to prove the terrifying profitability of the Spider-Man movie.

But the copyright issues of "Spider-Man" can only be retreated, and Relativity Entertainment does not have the ability to go to war with two of the six major companies at the same time.

Ronan would not be so inflated.

The global box office of "Hulk Hulk" quickly exceeded US$200 million. After completing the promotion of the last part of the film, Jos Whedon did not rest. With great enthusiasm for work, he devoted himself to the preliminary preparations for "Avengers".

First of all, the script, which is the basis of the movie. What troubles Jos Wheden the most is how to integrate a magical superhero like Thor into a modern superhero team.

Jos Whedon once wanted to remove Thor from the Avengers, but got a negative answer from Ronan and Kevin Feige.

The movie "Thor" has been filmed and the post-production is about to be completed. The holiday season will be released this year. How can you not participate in the Avengers?

It's really not easy to put these characters together, because fundamentally, this group of people does not belong to the same movie.

But Ronan has provided the crew with a script outline, and Jos Whedon and the screenwriter team of Shahai Entertainment can create scripts based on the outline.

In this film, Iron Man is the core of the film, and the roles of Captain America and Black Widow, Thor, Hulk and Hawkeye are reduced in turn.

There are many characters in the film, and each character is a star, so it is impossible to distribute the role evenly.

Movies are the art of regret. No matter what aspect or when, regrets will be left behind. The roles are just as unrealistic as possible.

Besides, the popularity of each superhero character will be very different at that time.

Why did Iron Man become the absolute core? Why did he snap his fingers in the end, because he is the most popular in the entire Avengers of the movie.

Well, Iron Man snaps his fingers, but because things will turn out to be extreme, they will die first if they have more money. On the whole set, you have the highest pay, who will you not go to? Who will you die if you don’t die?

Therefore, some superheroes must be supporting roles in "Avengers".

Actually, this will not be disappointing, because there will be many action scenes in the film in the future. Although there are so many superheroes together, this movie is always an action movie.

Those action scenes with big scenes are the flesh and blood of this movie.

Even with Ronan's script outline, Joss Whedon's early work is still difficult.

There is no easy way to shoot such a super mixed-up movie.

Jos Whedon has experience in this area, and has screwed up the lessons of "Firefly" and has also made him clearer.

To be honest, in the minds of the film creators, this movie is not a popular hot commodity. The reason is actually very simple - too many heroes, too many different super abilities, and too difficult to mix them together.

Originally, Kevin Feige talked about this directorship with Jon Feiju, but Jon Feiju thought he was not capable enough in this area and took the initiative to give up.

Later, Jon Favreau explained to Ronan specifically: "I can't direct this movie because it's too difficult. I created an Iron Man created with high technology in the movie, but now he has to fight with the Avengers. Here are mythical characters like Thor, and some supernatural abilities that are not very suitable for high technology, etc. It is actually very difficult to mix these elements together. In comics, there are no problems to express this way, but in movies, I can't shoot this way."

The first batch of Pacific Investment Foundation's start-up funds of $30 million were received. Joss Weiden's goal is to complete and finalize the script within half a year.

In addition, after discussing with Kevin Feige, Ronan decided to shoot "Avengers" into the first 3D film in the Marvel Avengers universe.

This is not for anything else, but for the purpose of increasing commercial income.

Ronan also took Kevin Feige and Jos Whedon to watch "Transformers", which will be released on this year's Independence Day schedule, hoping that the special effects of "Avengers" can completely crush "Transformers".

Special effects production is also the top priority of this commercial production.

May is coming its last weekend, and before the traditional Memorial Day holiday in North America, two more major productions are released, namely Tom Cruise's Mission: Impossible 3 and Universal Pictures's Fake God 2.

Ronan accepted the invitation from Tom Cruise and went to the Hollywood Oriental Theater to attend the premiere of "Mission Impossible 3".

"Welcome, Ronan."

In the theater VIP room, Tom Cruise, who was the owner, hugged Ronan and asked, "Where is Jesse? I'm an invitation to you two."

Ronan briefly explained: "She is preparing for a new project and going to Boston with the director to inspect the location."

Tom Chris nodded slightly and asked, "I heard a lot of people mention Jesse is a workaholic?"

Ronan has no need to deny it: "Jesse is very concerned about work."

Will Smith also came over at this time, looking angry at Ronan: "Ronan, you have embarked on a evil path!"

Ronan shrugged and said directly: "Will, I remember you are a married person, right?"

Hearing this, Will Smith was speechless and could only shake his head.

Tom Cruise said again: "By the way, I forgot to tell you last time. I have talked with Brad Bird many times and think he is very suitable for the Mission: Impossible series and is ready to invite him to be the hero of the next film."

Brad Bird is one of the five tiger generals of Pixar Studios and has a contract with Pixar Studios.

Ronan thought for a while and said, "As long as you negotiate with Brad Bird and Pixar Studios, I have no objection."

Tom Cruise said: "I'll let someone get in touch with them when I look back."

There were other guests to be received, and Tom Cruise quickly went elsewhere.

Will Smith didn't leave and said to Ronan again: "There are some problems recently between Tom and Paramount Pictures."

"I heard it." Ronan said calmly: "The dispute over interests in the Mission: Impossible series is inevitable, and I believe Tom can resolve it."

The copyrights of this series are in the hands of Tom Cruise and Paramount Pictures respectively. As long as a new sequel is filmed, no one can get rid of anyone.

It took so long for a considerable reason to go from "Mission Impossible 2" to the third part of the story, which is that there is no discussion on the distribution of interests between the two sides.

Entering the screening room, Ronan's seat is next to Paramount Pictures CEO Shirley Lansing.

This was obviously something that someone deliberately arranged.

"The success of Marvel's superhero movies have been successful one after another, which is a gratifying congratulations." Shirley Lansing said congratulations, but he had his own plans in his mind: "A big first-line production has huge investment costs and will occupy a large amount of capital flow. Ronan, have you ever considered accepting foreign investment? Paramount Pictures is willing to share risks and pressure for relativistic entertainment."

This was said quite beautifully. Ronan replied with a smile: "Thank you very much for Paramount Pictures for your kindness. Relativity Entertainment can still bear this pressure, so you won't bother Paramount Pictures."

Shirley Lansing suddenly said: "What if Paramount Pictures returns all the copyrights of the Mission: Impossible series to Tom Cruise?"

Hearing this, Ronan couldn't help but look at Shirley Lansing and said in a plain and firm tone: "This is a problem between Paramount Pictures and Tom, and it has nothing to do with Relativity Entertainment."

Shirley Lansing could feel that Ronan was very determined and didn't say anything in the end.

Even though Shirley Lansing said these words, Ronan did not consider Paramount Pictures' so-called helping Relativity Entertainment share the stress and troubles.

In such a huge matter, he clearly distinguished himself, friendship belongs to friendship, and business belongs to business.
