I'm not just an action star

"very nice!"

"very touching!"

"The final battle was very exciting!"

"When Gandalf led the people rushing down the hillside, it seemed to be a more magnificent and passionate scene than "300 Spartans"!"

"The battle to guard Helm's Deep is so passionate and touching!"

"Fack, the elf died too badly!"

"Brother Long's design is unreasonable, the elf archer is actually standing in the front!"

With the end of the premiere, heated discussions about "The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" began to emerge online.

This epic fantasy war blockbuster sweeping the West has set off a frenzy of discussions on the Internet.

Compared with the beginning of the Fellowship of the Ring in the first part, the second part begins to tell the story in depth, and therefore discusses more.

Movie reviews followed suit.

"The "Lord of the Rings" series, if the first part is to explain the origin of the Lord of the Rings and escort the Lord of the Rings, the second part is to go deep into the story and describe the characters.

The most talked about is Gollum Gollum who appeared in the first book when he was only mentioned by Gandalf.

Why did it take so many shots to show Gollum Gollum?

Actually, it has something to do with the Lord of the Rings.

Gollum is the person who has stayed with the Lord of the Rings the longest, and is also the person who has been most affected by the Lord of the Rings.From a person, tortured by the Lord of the Rings into a monster, and split into two personalities.It is commonly known as schizophrenia.Here is a digression, maybe Wu Long was very successful in playing Hannibal, the perverted murderer, so he was also very successful in writing Gollum, a schizophrenic monster.

And through the portrayal of Gollum, the audience can understand how much courage and strength it takes to wear the Lord of the Rings.

Frodo, the protagonist, is slowly changing because of this.This change made him unable to recognize himself, and even drew his sword to kill his friend Sam.

Affected by the Lord of the Rings, the closer you are to Mordor, the greater the influence.

This explains why in the dead swamp, Sam is not affected by the undead in the water, and Frodo is affected by the undead and falls into the water.

It also explains why Frodo is so impulsive and stupid. Even the audience knows that if he rushes to the black door, he will be caught and caught. Frodo is still so persistent in rushing to the black door.

By describing the changes of Frodo and Gollum Gollum, the film shows how evil the Lord of the Rings is and must be destroyed.

Otherwise, once Sauron gets the ring, the world will definitely become dark and evil.

......"

"The second part of the "Lord of the Rings" series focuses on character creation. Especially the performance of the character Frodo, wandering and struggling, sober and confused, all make the whole film feel thicker because of the increased thickness of the protagonist. .

Showing Gollum is actually using Gollum to show Frodo's struggle and confrontation.

Sam does not believe in Gollum, Frodo believes in Gollum, because Frodo must believe that Gollum is good.For what happened to Frodo himself was what happened to Gollum.If he didn't trust Gollum, it meant that Sam didn't trust him.

Frodo believes that he can help Gollum to change his ways, but he is also giving himself confidence that he will be able to overcome the temptation of the Lord of the Rings.

......"

"The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers does not have as many action scenes as the first one, but the battle scenes on the battlefield are still thrilling and exciting.

The finale, the defense of Helm's Deep, lived up to expectations, and the scene was magnificent.The panorama of the battlefield is amazing.From the details to the specific combat actions, it is thrilling again.

In terms of the composition of the picture, it is viewed from the direction of the orc.It seems that the black tide is rushing towards the castle of Helm's Deep, and it is bound to submerge it.

Looking from Helm's Deep Castle, the orc army couldn't see the end, and he couldn't help but feel powerless and hopeless.

When Gandalf led the reinforcements to rush down the hillside, the exaggerated steepness of rushing down the slope had the excitement of extreme sports in a big scene.

In reality, if the army rushed down such a slope, they would fall and collapse first.

But in movies, in fantasy films, it is given the possibility.

For example, Gandalf's magic blessing may allow reinforcements to do it.

But the half-orcs, who were holding long spears, lined up to fight, but were blinded by the rising sun.

One against the light and one against the light, the battle is doomed. "

"The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" let everyone talk about the war scenes of cold weapons.

Some accused the elf archers of going to die.

Someone explained that if the half-orc heavy armor and elf archers shoot arrows on the second layer of defense, the effect will definitely not be so good.

The mistake was that the white-robed mage Saruman did not expect to use explosives to blow up the city wall.

At this time, the half-orcs poured in, and it was too late for the elf archers to retreat.

"The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" introduced the tree man, and this character is also refreshing.

In the end, Gondor general Faramir deceived Frodo and used Frodo to catch Gollum, which caused Gollum to misunderstand Frodo. In the end, Gollum wanted to design and kill Frodo, but he also succeeded in leaving the hook, so that the audience Looking forward to the arrival of the third part.

"That Faramir is disgusting. If it weren't for him, Gollum would have defeated another evil self and reformed himself!"

"He's as bad as his brother!"

"Actually, you have misunderstood Faramir. He was just tempted by the Lord of the Rings. How could the Lord of the Rings easily make Gollum change his ways?"

"I really want to watch the third part soon."

"Unfortunately, we have to wait until next year!"

"The ending song of this one is too tortured to listen to."

"That's the dark journey, and it's Gollum."

……

Wu Long came to Haolaihu and started filming "Fast and Furious 2".

Before the filming started, Lion Pictures and Huang Yiyu came to visit.

Wu Long knew why Lion Pictures came, and Huang Yiyu told him secretly that Lion Pictures wanted to make "Reaper 5".

Huang Yiyu knew about Wu Long's temper, so he had already given up his title and secretly reported it as he did last time.

He actually wanted to hang out with Wu Long.It's a pity that he has the brand of Lion Pictures on his body, and it's not good to leave Lion Pictures completely.

Huang Yiyu did not support Lion Films coming to Wu Long to shoot "Reaper 5", but he still had to come.Because Lion Pictures wanted to bring him here, he had to come.And Lion Films asked him to shoot, so he had to come.

Lion Pictures is thinking about changing directors.But I was afraid that changing the director would give Wu Long an excuse to refuse.Besides, Huang Yiyu's performance is not bad, if the filming is even worse if the director is changed, Lion Pictures will have to bear the loss.

During the meeting with Wu Long, Lion Pictures first poured out their bitterness, saying that the investment would not make much money.In fact, the main reason is to give Wu Long too much and not make much money.I hope Wu Long will not increase the share of the fifth part.

No matter what to say, Wu Long finally got the consent to give them the fifth script.As for whether to shoot in 3D, it is up to them to decide.

However, this time, Wu Long definitely said that there will be no sixth part.The meaning is obvious, if Lion Films still insists on the sixth film next time, then they will no longer cooperate in the future.

In fact, Wu Long also had considerations for "Reaper 5".It must be uncomfortable to shoot the "Fast and Furious" series with Weiner Pictures, and Lion Pictures has no movies.

A week later, Wu Long gave Huang Yiyu the script of "Reaper 5".

Huang Yiyu took the script back to study with Weiner Pictures, and finally decided to make it into 3D.

"The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers" box office results came out in the first week, better than the first one.Judging from the box office trend, it is possible to surpass the first one.

Such achievements make the remaining six major film distribution companies happy.They hope that the global box office will exceed 15 billion, so that they can earn more.

The online discussion about the film, apart from other films and the "Lord of the Rings" series, is Wu Long's upcoming "Fast and Furious 2".

"The second part of "Fast and Furious" is about to be filmed. This time, Sanling Automobile and Nigerian Automobile have been added, so it should be interesting."

"What else is there to watch? I can't think of how this kind of commercial movie can have a second one. Look at the same commercial movie, "Frozen" dares to make a second one?"

"This kind of advertising film, which clearly promotes a certain brand of cars, really shouldn't have a second one. What will the second one be like? Solve crimes and race cars? Isn't that a repeat of the first one?"

"My God, does Wu Long still want to trick the audience into watching an hour-and-a-half-hour commercial? And shoot the second part, what new ideas can you shoot? Isn't it an underground racing car? Use your car skills to commit crimes?"

"I'm really convinced, are those car companies stupid? Wu Long's photos show that your cars are being used to commit crimes! Who will buy your cars?"

Not only the entertainment circle is talking about Wu Long and "Fast and Furious 2", just like the first one, the marketing circle is also talking about "Fast and Furious 2".

"Based on predictions, Fast and Furious 2 is likely to fail.

Viewers won't be fooled a second time.

It is impossible for you to shoot such an advertising film repeatedly, and the audience will get bored and disgusted.

First of all, there are no new ideas in the film, only crime and underground racing.Underground racing is likewise a crime.

Secondly, two car companies have been added this time, for a total of three car brands.

How to choose potential consumers?

Dispersing the choices of consumer users may instead cause consumers to give up their choices and choose car brands other than these three car brands.

Even if "Fast and Furious 2", relying on Wu Long's personal influence to recover the cost of the film, it will not hit the street.

In terms of marketing, I dare to assert that it will definitely fail.In other words, the expected effect cannot be achieved. "

For the casting of "Fast and Furious 2", Wu Long handed it over to Weiner Pictures, Mineta Group, Sanling Motors and Nigerian Motors to decide on their own.

Anyway, apart from Wu Long himself as the protagonist, they can choose whoever they like.Didn't act well and smashed the brand of their car.

In this one, there are no Michelle and Diesel.

The original version of "Fast and Furious 2" had an exaggerated production cost of $600 million.Twice as much as the original "Fast and Furious 1"!

However, the total global box office is only more than 600 million US dollars, and the return on investment is only 3.

It can be said that although the original "Fast and Furious 2" did not hit the box office, it was actually a failure.

In order to increase visibility, Wu Long had to change.

The plot was not easy to change, so Wu Long changed it from Biaoche.

In fact, the racing car in this movie is an improvement over the first one.The first one only has straight-line acceleration, and most of them are refitting and horsepower.The second part at least has more corners and some show-offs.

For example, the protagonist only looks at the beautiful woman in the passenger seat, and does not look at the road ahead to drive.It will stop at a red light.

For example, the protagonist deliberately turns his head backwards to show off his skills to his friends.

On the scene, the scene where hundreds of cars drive out to disturb the police is also a good design.

In the end, the speeding yacht was quite shocking.

But this is not enough.

The first one didn't have so many ostentatious skills, but it still had a good box office, because of the novelty of the subject matter.

If the second part does not have more exciting content and more thrilling shots, the audience will not buy it.

This is also one of the reasons why the box office of the second part of the original version is not ideal.

Like driving without looking ahead and driving backwards on the highway, although the gimmick is good, it is not thrilling enough.

In the end, it flew out and hit the yacht. Although it was quite shocking, the process was too short.There is a problem with the lens editing, which fails to make the audience see the thrill and excitement.

For the racing car at the beginning of the film, it’s okay to shoot it so-so.The final sprint was designed to be raised to form a bridge, which should have been a bright spot, but it was nothing new.

Therefore, when Wu Long came to shoot, this place had to be changed to capture that sense of shock and excitement.

The second racing scene is a scene in which the villain Carter Veron wants to test these drivers who have applied for the job, and these drivers are racing on the road.

In this scene, there is only one thrilling scene, that is, one of the drivers tried to pass between two large trucks like the protagonist, but was ruthlessly collided and crushed.

The other shots are the usual ones in car chase scenes.

This doesn't work, it has to be changed.

In the third racing scene, the protagonist wants to find two cars, because the car given by the police has a GPS location.So through Tej Parker, who is in charge of the underground car race, two people are recruited to race, and whoever wins can take the opponent's car.

This racing scene is not easy to change, because if you want to win the opponent's car, you must try to ensure that the opponent's car is intact.Otherwise, even if you win the race and get a damaged car, you will lose the meaning of the race.

The fourth racing scene is being chased by the police.The original version of this scene was also not thrilling enough.Maybe it's because the two are undercover agents, so it's not easy for the police car to have a tragic accident.But if this kind of logic leads to this kind of filming, it will lose the flavor of the movie.

Movies, for the sake of thrills, sometimes need to make trade-offs, and give up some logic appropriately.This can also be understood by the audience.

Wu Long decided to change it, and let the police car have a big car accident, so that the audience will love to watch it.
You know, the protagonist was chased by the police after the car racing at the beginning of the movie. The protagonist was hit by this kind of jammer, and the car lost power and was caught.

Therefore, Wu Long needs to change this poisonous point.Just let the protagonist do a big "s" snake swing to avoid the jammer.

The last thing to change is that the car flies out and rushes towards the yacht.The original version has no visual impact, which makes people feel less shocking.The effect of shooting is just an ordinary effect.There have been movies made like this before, and the audience will not feel fresh and exciting if they make the same film again.

After confirming, Wu Long found Ross, the captain of the famous car stunt team.This time, Ross first listened to Wu Long's ideas before making a decision.

After listening to Wu Long's idea, he thought it was difficult to fly over the bridge at the beginning, and it was also difficult to rush into the yacht at the end, so he wanted to cooperate with Wu Long himself.Others are really worried.

These two difficulties are because Wu Long's shooting is different from others.

Flying over the bridge, the car that Wu Long asked to fly out first was slowed down by the protagonist's faster car and took the first place.

The original only had a view of the overtaken driver looking out of the car, seeing the main character's car pass over his head.

This performance is not shocking.

Wu Long requested that the camera chase and shoot two cars flying out one after another, and the protagonist's car in the air flew over the previous car, and then the two cars landed and continued to move forward.

Moreover, Wu Long wanted to finish shooting in one shot.

This is more difficult.
