If the previous drama of "I Am Legend" was too lengthy and made all the viewers want to doze off, then with the emergence of zombies and the further development of the story, people have been deeply involved and obsessed.
The characters on the big screen are shaped by the story.
The following story is exciting. It is no longer as lengthy and boring as before. Instead, every minute is full of thrills and excitement, especially when the heroine Julie captures a female zombie. In order to save her, the lost leader sends zombies constantly.
They pursued Julie all the time, and the two sides started a battle between humans and corpses again and again.
As one of the male protagonists of this drama, Jason Statham, who plays the role of the leader of zombies and night demons, has shown his charm as a muscular man. Although he is dressed in a zombie costume, he is full of majestic atmosphere and even has some heavy taste.
When the female audience saw him on stage, they couldn't help but say, "Wow, what great muscles!"
Of course, just having muscles is not enough. The zombie leader played by Jason Statham must also use his eyes to act. It is not like the ferocious, expressionless look of zombies in the past, but he must use his eyes to act out a new character.
The spirit of the species. Jason achieved this. In fact, during the filming of this movie, Jason's bald head became Mediterranean due to excessive makeup, but he did not complain at all. Or rather
, ever since he agreed to Yi Feiyang to star in this drama, he has been psychologically prepared to be "ruined" and "ravaged" by the director. People say that Yi Feiyang is the god of miracles and the Midas touch, but who knows,
There will be so many actors behind him silently supporting him.
As the story unfolded, the audience was greeted with cheers and screams from time to time. It can be said that the following story and plot basically showed the charm of Yi Feiyang's director. There are several things that can be said about the filming.
It's very exciting.
For example, the heroine drove her car into the group of zombies that were intercepting her. When the car slammed into the group of zombies, the banging sound was endless, and those zombies were even more powerful. After being hit hard by the car, there was no
Any injuries. Continue to get up, jump high, and then lie tightly on the car. The special effects technology in this scene is very well used, and it looks particularly good, especially when thousands of zombies are captured.
A pitiful car. This scene caused everyone in the cinema to have rapid heartbeats. Their blood was boiling and they clenched their fists to cheer for Julie. Every time they heard the impact of the car hitting the zombies, everyone couldn't help but roar, just like this.
At this moment, it was as if they were controlling the car and fighting against the powerful zombie army!
In fact, Yi Feiyang's cleverness is fully reflected here, which is to replace the original Will Smith with Angelina Jolie to star. You know, women will appear weaker and more sympathetic on the big screen. And Zhu
As a beautiful woman, it is easier for Li to win the sympathy of the audience.
Of course, Yi Feiyang is definitely a person who is good at showing off his emotions to win the tears of the audience. In addition to the above scene, there is also a tragic scene where the sheepdog Lassie fights to the death with a zombie dog in order to protect the heroine. This scene
Feiyang also used computer special effects. However, the fighting material was taken from the bloody footage of an underground dog fighting ring. Yi Feiyang spent a lot of effort to get this footage from the police station, and then used three-dimensional animation to simulate the dog fighting.
The scene of a crazy dog fight. Needless to say, it was so shocking! Especially when Lacy fought one against three and died tragically in Julie's arms, all the audience shed tears because everyone no longer regarded it as a dog.
But a friend! And the only friend!
In short, at the moment when the sheepdog Lacy died, the whole movie theater was filled with humidity, and everyone was immersed in unextricable grief.
Okay, as time goes by, we have finally arrived at the final battle of this drama, which is also the final climax of the film.
When Julie, Anna and their daughter moved to the laboratory, the zombie leader brought his men to the laboratory. Outside the tempered glass, the zombie leader violently attacked crazily with his iron-like body.
Accompanied by the roars, the ferocious faces of a large group of zombies around them, and the tense and terrifying music, movie fans in thousands of theaters across the United States fell completely silent, without a single sound, as if they were all standing at this moment.
In the laboratory, feel the tension and excitement.
Every time the zombie leader hits, the tempered glass becomes more shattered, and everyone's heart trembles.
Once...twice...three times...
The audience was going crazy. No one knew what would happen in the next second, but everyone was guessing how many times this tempered glass could withstand it.
…
In the end, the reversal occurs, and the heroine discovers that zombies actually know how to think!
What does this mean?!
All the viewers were stunned by the plot at this time. The zombie movies they had seen so far were all stereotyped. But this time... it showed the emergence of a new species!
For the first time, a director recognized a new species through this kind of film!
Treat zombies as a new species with understanding and tolerance!
God, this is crazy!
Isn't this a horror movie?
Isn't this an ordinary fast food snack?
Why did the connotation suddenly rise to such a high level?!
On the big screen, when the zombie leader picked up the female zombie and the male and female zombies roared with joy at their reunion, all the audience fell silent. Maybe the zombies are not all bad.
When Julie lowered her head and said sorry in a deep voice, all the audience gave her a thumbs up. She is a heroine worthy of respect.
When Julie and Anna were sitting in the car leaving New York City, the camera gradually became blurry and out of focus, and the movie was over!
…
At this time, everyone began to slowly return to reality from their inner thoughts. More than 300 people in the entire theater stood up in silence, and everyone clapped their hands vigorously.
The waves of applause like "papapapa~" came one after another, like the most beautiful melody in the world. All the filmmakers present used this action to express their gratitude to Fantasy Entertainment for making such a great film.
His work received the highest respect in his heart. The applause lasted for a full 5 minutes.
No one arranged it, and no one stood up to organize it. Every filmmaker felt a surge of excitement in his heart at this moment, encouraging himself to do this, to cheer and applaud this movie!
For two full hours, they experienced an unprecedented journey to the end of the world. They felt what the film creators believed in conveying, the brilliance of the everlasting new faith.
Everyone’s first feeling after watching it is, subversive!
Yes, this drama subverts all zombie and apocalyptic movies by turning zombies into sentient animals!
Regarding such a design, many people have only one sentence in their minds: The end may not be terrible! It is just the beginning of a new era.
What moves and shocks you is not a single moment, but your soul is calm from beginning to end. These two hours contain too much content, which will make you enjoy and drive you crazy. When you calm down, you will feel an unprecedented peace.
Come upon me, there are too many emotions.
A lonely woman at the end of the world, an extremely loyal shepherd dog, a prison-like residence, an abandoned city - this story is very simple; in order to save mankind, you sacrifice your family and yourself, but in the end you find yourself.
It turns out that everything was done wrong! What kind of choices God made is beyond the reach and understanding of humans.
But no matter what state you are in, you can still feel the shock to your soul. Even if you are a picky filmmaker, you will still cry and laugh, and you will still feel extremely shocked by this movie.
The moviegoers applauded, not just because of the movie itself, but because of Yi Feiyang’s incomparable courage~!!
Today, when Hollywood movies are moving towards pure commercialism and good storytellers are gradually disappearing, ordinary people cannot imagine the excitement of filmmakers after watching this movie. Isn’t the dull and depressing feeling at the beginning of "I Am Legend" just what people think now?
A portrayal of boring life? Isn’t the cell-like residence a satire and ridicule of home life? Isn’t the fear of zombies the fear of unknown things in the future? In this world, we have lost faith, no longer believe in God, only believe in the Internet, believe in
In a world where money is paramount, when we lose everything, we may understand what is most important!
It's not just the pictures, the special effects and the soundtrack that are extremely beautiful. It's as simple as turning the movie into a "work of art". What really moves people is the precious, dazzling light of great human emotions.
~!
After "Titanic", "Jurassic Park", and "Star Wars", people believe that big scenes, exciting plots, and eye-catching star actors are the future of movies!
But after watching this movie, Yi Feiyang stood up proudly and told them all here! What big scenes, what exciting plots! What stars! It's all bullshit! Because these are all to realize respect and belief in the movie!
He made every soul here immersed in that vast, turbulent and lonely abandoned city. He looked down at them all like a god who never appeared in "I Am Legend" but was always creating new species.
, tell them, what is a movie? This is a movie!
Inside the New York Grand Theater, starring Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp were surrounded by fans. They were so excited that they couldn't contain themselves. They asked for autographs and took photos together.
"Julie, I love you!"
"Julie, you are a heroine!"
"God, this show is so enjoyable!"
…
At the same time, in the Los Angeles Grand Theater, film critics, directors, and producers all rushed up and surrounded Yi Feiyang and the others. They were instantly drowned out by cheers and excited testimonials.
"That's great! Dear Yi."
"This work is simply unparalleled."
"Thank you for letting me understand what life is."
"This movie is the best zombie movie I have ever seen! Long live China Yi~!"
Crowded in the center by the crowd, Yi Feiyang looked at the excited faces, listened to their cheers, let them slap his shoulders excitedly, hugged himself excitedly, and suddenly felt that everything around him had changed.
As if in slow motion, he looked back at Anne Hathaway and found that her face was full of happiness and joy, and Jessica Alba was also secretly wiping tears aside excitedly.
They were surrounded, applauded and congratulated by the most loyal and best fans in the world, hugged by the vicious film critics who had ridiculed them countless times, and the producers were embraced. Yi Feiyang looked at the moment he just landed in the United States.
These "dead enemies" who gave him a lot of headaches. At this moment, he was moved, conquered and excited by his own movie. When the huge happiness brought by these successful scenes in front of him came, this overflowing sense of satisfaction was wonderful.
He was so moved that he couldn't describe it. He smiled, shook hands and hugged everyone, and allowed his excited peers to pat his shoulders, enjoying this extremely beautiful moment.
Tears, laughter, screams, and the emotions of the people of Fantasy Entertainment that had been suppressed for a long time burst out, and everyone was roaring in their hearts~! "I Am Legend" succeeded~! We succeeded~!! Fantasy Entertainment
The company succeeded~~!!!!!
Outside the cheering crowd, Gusta, the president of Lionsgate Pictures, moved his steps to go out, but couldn't squeeze through the crowd. He suddenly felt the vigorous power of people's hearts at the scene. He felt that Yi Feiyang was beginning to become
After meeting a company boss who far surpassed him, he thought about Yi Feiyang's previous proposal... to merge Fantasy, Lionsgate, and Dimension, and the three powers would join forces to dominate Hollywood.
Shaking his head violently, Gusta put this thought aside, because he knew that this idea was terrible. If there was a merger, there would be no doubt that Yi Feiyang, who was at the height of his power, would be the first president. So what about himself, would he really want to
Become a follower?!
Looking helplessly at the cheering crowd, Raymond, who was once a friend of Yi Feiyang and the boss of Paramount, couldn't help but think of the past. Meng Meng was not so powerful and Yi Feiyang was not so powerful. Everything seemed to be fine. He was Shi.
For those who help, you can hear Yi Feiyang's thanks and his gratitude to Paramount. But now, the already strong Fantasy Entertainment no longer needs Paramount's charity.
Yes, Yi Feiyang no longer needs the help of his big brother, Paramount. Everything has changed! It has become strange to him.
Jobson, the director of Warner's "Terminator 3", slumped in his seat in a remote and unobtrusive place, watching all this powerlessly. For the first time, he felt that Yi Feiyang had something beyond them.
The power of everyone's imagination, no matter how much capital he has at his disposal, cannot shake it. The majestic power of film art... "But it's not over yet. What's the point of whether the movie is good or bad? The box office will determine everything."
He muttered silently.
Yi Feiyang walked out of the cinema amidst the noise of the crowd, and immediately received a call from Angelina from New York. On the phone, Julie's voice was very excited, and she shouted:
"Yi, it's great~! Everyone in my theater was shocked~! Geez, the person next to me was shaking all over when the Night Demon appeared, and then burst into tears at the end, and
Johnny Depp, this bad guy, actually swore to movie fans that he would run naked if the movie box office exceeded 500 million! Haha, what a big reward, I must post these photos of them online, the reactions of these people are so interesting."
Everyone along the way received blessings and greetings. Yi Feiyang used practical actions to break the subject matter restrictions of previous zombie films and create a new film form.
…
That night, when Yi Feiyang went home and lay in bed, he was thinking about the scene in the theater. He listened to the praises of those he respected the most and the compliments of those who had ridiculed him. He closed his eyes and felt
A wonderful feeling.
It was not the usual sense of satisfaction or ecstasy, it was as if he had anticipated all this before, because in this shooting, he felt that he was constantly surpassing his limits, which was different from before, and
He was not leading the movie, but the movie took him forward, to a situation he had never imagined before.
Just like a word to describe - "if God helps", he is "if God helps". He suddenly felt the mood of the actors who performed the "unique show". He did not create this work alone, but
This work plays on its own…
Even if he were asked to film a hundred times, he might not be able to reproduce the current "I Am Legend" again.
The reason is simple: the right time, right place, right people, and the right people.
Needless to say, if this drama were placed in that time period in the past life, it would never have caused such a big sensation, because at that time, with the popularity of the Internet and the proliferation of zombie culture, the proposition that "zombiees are also intelligent" would not arouse emotion.
But now, the zombie culture driven by "Resident Evil" has just begun. It is absolutely dazzling that I have proposed such a concept across the ages.
The location is very convenient. The abandoned city designed in the movie is Los Angeles. For viewers who live in Los Angeles, they have a strong sense of immersion. It seems as if the protagonist in the movie is themselves, or the people around them. What's more, from some kind of
From a perspective, Los Angeles is also the place where Yi Feiyang became famous. He established Fantasy Entertainment here and became a new super director here.
Needless to say, people and actors are very important in this drama. Yi Feiyang boldly transformed Will Smith, who starred in this drama in his previous life, into Yi girl Angelina Jolie. He changed the protagonist from a tough guy to a beauty. Alone
From an aesthetic point of view, it is gimmicky enough, not to mention that American culture is very receptive to stories of "weak women saving humanity in times of crisis" and is moved by them. Therefore, the heroine Julie has gained more admiration and recognition, and is also in harmony with the story.
The audience has established a more intimate relationship. Of course, in addition, other characters such as Depp, Morgan Freeman and others also performed very well.
In short, in Yi Feiyang's view, all miracles are not accidental, and only he knows the hardship and effort involved. (To be continued...)
