Chapter 865 God-like role

On the last weekend of September, "Saw 3" was released in North America. Because the first two films received great commercial responses, Embassy Films held a premiere for the film.

The first two movies have won the support of a large number of horror movie fans for this series.

Just like the "Death is Coming" series has a considerable number of "Death" fans, the "Saw" series also has a large number of "Jigsaw" fans.

The difference is that "jittersaw" fans are composed of two groups with completely opposite positions.

Some fans believe that "jiuzhe" is not a simple executioner, but a messenger of justice. All actions are not killing people, but to punish extrajudicials or awaken lost people.

Another part of fans firmly believe that "Jigsaw" is a perverted murderer!

The two sides quarreled on the Internet, and no one could convince anyone, and they have not surpassed each other until now.

There is only one real winner in this quarrel - "Saw".

After the controversy left the first two movies, it still attracted a large number of people to watch.

Because the production cost of "Saw 3" is only $4 million, it is impossible for Embassy Pictures to invest too much money in the premiere, so the premiere is not large.

But there are many fans who come to the Nokia Theater, where the premiere is held.

This series has won the support of a considerable scale of fixed audiences.

Moreover, Embassy Film has also done a lot of articles on publicity.

For example, this is the end of the trilogy, and "Jigsaw" will usher in the judgment of fate in the third part!

There is no doubt that "Jigsaw" is one of the most attractive villains in Hollywood movies in recent years, and its ending is also a powerful tool to attract supporters.

Of course, as long as the series can make a profit, after the trilogy is over, there will naturally be a new trilogy, and it will not be a problem to follow it up.

The premiere red carpet ceremony was not long, and only the main creators of the crew and several senior executives of Relativity Entertainment participated. Ronan also showed up at the scene to show his importance to Wan Ziren and this series.

Participating in the premiere represents a kind of attitude Ronan has shown to the outside world.

At the premiere, the person who attracted the most attention was Wan Ziren, followed by "Jigsaw" Tobin Bell.

The latter has become the spokesperson for "Jigsaw" in the real world. When Tobin Bell, who was pale-faced, walked on the red carpet, his slightly gloomy face actually made the fans on both sides of the red carpet quiet for a moment.

It seems that they are scared by the "jiuzhe".

As a non-famous actor, Tobin Bell will never get rid of the name of "jittersaw" in his life.

It's not a bad thing for an actor of his level.

At least there is capital to ask the producer for higher rewards.

In the third part, Tobin Bell's pay rose to $300,000 plus one percent of the North American box office profit share.

With the sequel filming, it is inevitable that the rewards of the main creators will increase.

For example, as the director and screenwriter Wan Ziren, "Saw 3" has no basic salary, but a 7% North American box office share.

A director like Wan Ziren, who has attracted the attention of the entire Hollywood, cannot reduce the film contract to the level of pressing because of the long-term contract.

Ronan met Wen Ziren in the theater hall.

"James, it's done well." Ronan won't stingy with praise: "This movie will definitely scare a lot of people."

Wen Ziren smiled and said, "I have done my best."

Ronan understands what this sentence means: "You only need to be a producer in the future, and the first trilogy has created a very successful typical pattern for the series."

Wen Ziren said: "Darren may not be an excellent pioneer, but a very qualified executor."

Ronan nodded slightly: "I talked to director Bosman, and for the next "Saw", he is talented enough."

Wen Ziren said again: "I can come out of this series, Ronan, I have some ideas..."

Ronan said: "I have some ideas about horror movies, and when the premiere is over, we will find some time to talk together."

"Okay." Wen Ziren responded.

Ronan then met Darren Bowsman, the young director with a very personalized Mohikan hairstyle, and the suit he wore seemed to be the same style as the puppet Billy.

Starting with "Saw 4", if there are no accidents, Darren Bowsman will also direct at least three sequels.

This director has outstanding execution ability and has been serving as Wan Ziren's deputy in the crew continuously. He is the most suitable director candidate to continue the successful mode of "Saw".

Just like the sequel after "Death is Coming", Ronan does not need the sequel to "Saw" to be subversive and groundbreaking, and ensuring commercial success is the most important thing.

Two years ago, shortly after "Saw" was released, it attracted considerable attention around the world. Many people who have watched the video threatened that they were really scared by that "Jigsaw".

Last year, "Saw 2" continued the legend of "Jigsaw Massacre" and achieved remarkable results, joining forces with the first to win the honor of "the most successful horror movie series" in recent years.

A year later, "Saw 3" made a comeback and opened a new chapter about "Jigsaw Massacre".

In order to give the trilogy he personally directed has a good ending chapter, Wan Ziren claimed more than once that he used his "trump card" to ensure that the film is more tense and exciting than the first two, and will also lead the audience to browse the dark inner world of "Jigsaw" close.

The third part firmly attracted the audience's attention at the beginning: Jigsaw's life is heading towards the end bit by bit, so he designed the most perfect game "Calendar" for his death.

In the early publicity of Embassy Film, we spent a lot of effort to conduct persuasion advertisements!

"Don't buy tickets to watch if you are timid. We can guarantee that not everyone has enough courage to see the end!"

This will not only not have a warning effect, but will instead allow more curious audiences to enter the theater.

Another type of publicity is to push the "jiuzhe" to the so-called altar.

There is a lot of hype about jigsaw.

“To some extent, he is a philosopher, a bit like a scientist and an artist, but most of the time, he sees himself as a doctor who ‘heals the disease and saves the lives’ because he keeps saying to the victims he has chosen: ‘You will thank me for this for it all the time’.”

This also meets the expectations of a considerable number of "jittersaw" fans.

Because in their eyes, Jigsaw has never been a murderer, but a social doctor.

If it were put in reality, probably no patient would thank such an outstanding doctor.

Who can bear the scimitar legs, broken fingers, cracked jaws, and broken belly at any time?

Even if God wants to test people like this, he will be pulled down from the altar by believers.

In "Saw 3", Wan Ziren plans to package the "Jigsaw" into a God-like character.

Perhaps after this movie, more people will think that the old man Jigsaw is not a murderer. He kills people not for the ultimate death but for a kind of redemption, so that those who live but are like dead will cherish their lives again and gain new life.

Perhaps, there will be a group of fanatical fans singing hymns like "Salute to Jigsaw".

Regardless of whether the plot of the film is distorted or not, one thing can be confirmed that this film surpasses the first two in bloody and visual stimulation scenes. Many scenes such as craniotomy are so bloody and cruel that it is impossible to look directly in front of it, which is very in line with the needs of North American horror movie enthusiasts for "horror".

But for audiences like Ronan who appreciate the horror of the Eastern Style more, "Saw 3" is more bloody and cruel than horror, and even makes people feel a little nauseous.

I can only say that the aesthetics of traditional North American horror film audiences are really extraordinary.

At the premiere, many viewers were shocked, and some were applauding Jigsaw.

These days, there are all kinds of weird worldviews and values.

If you think about it carefully, there are actually people like "Jigsaw" in reality, but they are definitely cult leaders.

Someone once said that if the old Jigsaw doesn't die, there is no problem in establishing a cult, no problem in the Nobel Prize, and no problem in catching up with Holmes...

Perhaps after the positive energy training chicken soup movies, there was a cult training movie.

Ronan knew very well that with "Saw 3" as the end of the first trilogy, and the director changed to Darren Bowsman from the fourth part, the "Saw" series is running wildly in the direction of the B-level film and will never look back.

The production cost of the subsequent sequel will be controlled within $5 million. If you want to attract audiences, you must add a new fancy killing show.

In addition, we must also find more nonsense reasons to be God for the disciples of Jigsaw and Jigsaw.

The effect of this film is very powerful. After watching the premiere, Ronan returned to the manor and saw the late-night snack prepared by Nikia, and he had no appetite at all.

"This is the milk that was airlifted from New Zealand this evening." Nikia came to Ronan with a cup: "It is said to be beneficial to sleep."

When Ronan saw the white liquid in the glass, he instantly thought of the jigsaw's white brain. He suppressed his nausea and waved his hand: "I can't drink it, I'll give it to you all."

Nikia had to take it away.

Ronan said again: "If there are other things you assigned to the staff in the manor, I don't want to see milk in the next few days."

Although Nikia is a little strange, as a butler, she will never ask any questions that shouldn't be asked.

"Okay, Wen Ziren." Ronan muttered: "You are so disgusting to me."

Thinking about it now, I really admire those who can talk to those who can even talk to them when facing a brain.

"It seems that I am not a qualified foodie." Ronan said to himself.

Nikia was very careful. After putting down the milk, she brought Ronan a glass of clear water. Ronan drank two sips of water and felt better.

When the weekend passes, it is time to have a good talk with Wan Ziren next week. Wan Ziren shouldn't have taken this path of relying solely on bloody scaring people.

There are a lot of materials, and after the first time he decided to cooperate with Wen Ziren, Ronan asked someone to make special preparations.
Chapter completed!
