Since the editing of "Shameless Bastard" was completed in his own style and form, instead of the typical Quentin-Talentino style of chapters, Murphy was very strict in the final finishing process. If there is any dissatisfaction, it will be reworked, which will lead to a long post-production delay.

Fortunately, he has plenty of time and can polish it carefully to minimize flaws.

Until the end of July, when the post-production of "Shameless Bastard" reached the final stage, Murphy was able to spare his energy to cooperate with the promotion and marketing of 20th Century Fox.

Murphy began to work closely with Fox's media to release promotional materials in a planned way.

"Recently, James Franco's styling in Murphy Stanton's new film "Inglourious Basterds" was exposed. This fixed makeup photo shows that he is playing a character nicknamed'Bastard' in the film as Lieutenant Aldo Reiner. Not only can you see the overall shape of James Franco from the exposed photos, but you can also see obvious scars on his neck."

A report from Fox Television made a key recommendation for this film.

"It is reported that the story of the film took place during World War II. A group of American soldiers who committed crimes were originally going to be sentenced to death. However, they adopted extraordinary policies during the extraordinary period and they were allowed to commit crimes. The role played by James Franco is the leader of this group of soldiers. , He led this team of soldiers to go deep into France that has been occupied by the ** to perform a dangerous mission-to kill ** members by cruel means to create an atmosphere of panic in the Third Reich.

With this as the beginning, the pre-screening publicity of "Shameless Bastard" has entered an intensive stage, and various materials are continuously transmitted from Murphy and the crew to major media platforms.

After the modeling picture was exposed, James Franco no longer had the low-key before and appeared frequently in public together with Lily Collins. This combination of golden boys and girls is eye-catching enough to become the focus of many gossip media.

This is also conducive to the promotion and marketing of "Shameless Bastard."

At the same time, James Franco and Lily Collins, with the cooperation of Twentieth Century Fox and the brokerage company CAA, staged a split-and-combination drama, creating the biggest gossip scandal in Hollywood at the end of July and early August.

The two of them are also willing to cooperate. In fact, in the process of getting together, it is not difficult to find that this pair cannot be measured by a normal way of thinking.

How can a **** and a girl willing to fall in love with pedophilia be measured by ordinary people's standards?

The first stage of the pre-screening publicity of "Inglourious Basterds" completely focused on James Franco as the core of the publicity. Although Hulanlan could not match the appeal of Robert Downey Jr. after "Iron Man", it was said to be good. The higher position of the second-tier stars is not excessive at all.

Such actors naturally have a certain degree of popularity and appeal.

However, the promotion and marketing of any film cannot be carried out by one person, and it can easily become a cold meal if it takes too long. The promotion work of the crew is also advancing one after another.

In mid-August, Murphy asked the crew to release three teaser posters, showing a strong violent style. There were no characters on the posters, only close-ups of weapons such as blood-stained clubs, rifles, and daggers. The screen was full of murderous air. Rich visual impact.

"These three posters have the typical dark style of Murphy Stanton, and the cult style of "Shameless Bastard" has finally begun to take shape."

The comments on the media and the Internet also hit the nail on the head.

With this enthusiasm, Twentieth Century Fox released the first trailer of "Inglourious Basterds". The trailer is only one minute and forty seconds long. In order to match the previous publicity plan, this publicity trailer is basically In James Franco's solo show, most of the scenes were played by Lieutenant Aldo Reina speaking to the **** team.

Of course, in the online version, there are inevitably **** and violent scenes, to show fans that the bloodthirsty Murphy is back again.

From the original "Fruit Candies" to the later "Deadpool", to "Game of Thrones" and "The Lost Lovers", these movies directed by Murphy all have almost crazy violence and **** scenes that add the finishing touch. There is "Man of Steel" which has converged due to the grading relationship, but also turned the blood into violence, making Superman and Wonder Woman and Doomsday a super demolition battle.

"Man of Steel" is also Murphy's only PG-13 rated film. When the online version of "Inglourious Basterds" is released, it will undoubtedly announce to Cult fans that Murphy has returned to the ranks of R-rated films. .

These are all conventional propaganda methods. In this era, Hollywood propaganda has become more and more diverse.

In mid-August, some large North American media reported that “It was too violent and bloody, and Murphy Stanton’s new film "Inglourious Basterds" was boycotted before it was released."

In the twentieth century, Fox's naval forces deliberately released a short script on the Internet, and instigated a protest overseas, which attracted the attention of many fans all over the world.

The North American media, especially those controlled by Fox and News Corporation, are hyping up the protests on a large scale.

"The script for the new film "Inglourious Basterds" directed by Murphy Stanton, which is scheduled to be released in the second half of this year, has been leaked recently. The Jewish **** fighters captain played by James Franco is very cruel. A family organization from Australia attempted. Boycott the movie from being shown in the country."

"Judging from the leaked script and the trailers that have been released, Murphy Stanton continued his black, violent and **** consistent style in "Inglourious Basterds". James Franco's "Asshole Boss" Al Lieutenant Do-Reina organized a squad of Jewish fighters to infiltrate the French occupied by the Communists and assassinate the Democrats. At this time, many people who were persecuted by the Communists were active in France."

"The distributor of this film also announced three teaser posters. There are no characters on the posters, only the dagger, bat and rifle dripping blood, full of vicious killing."

"However, a script that has flowed out on the Internet is more murderous. There is a scene where Lieutenant Aldo Reiner, played by James Franco, stands on a boulder and tells Jewish soldiers: Treat Germans fiercely, let them know us Who is it. Each of you owes me 100 scalps. Now, I am going to cut my scalp. There is also a plot where a soldier played by Ley Rose beats a scalp with a bat. Head, the scene can only be described by splashing brains; **** shots of submachine guns shooting at close range also frequently appear in the trailer..."

"According to the news from Twentieth Century Fox, "Inglourious Basterds" is expected to be screened for the first time in the world at the Toronto Film Festival in September. The film's release will take place during the traditional Thanksgiving to Christmas schedule in North America, and the release date in Australia is also December."

"The Victorian Family Council from Australia publicly stated that James Franco is a behavioral icon for young people. Such a **** and violent role would be a very bad example. Some Jewish organizations are also upset about the film being too violent. Murphy Stanton’s new film does not reflect the facts."

"But Murphy Stanton himself said in an interview with "Empire" that the actions of these'jerks' are similar to those of the heroic and combative North American Apaches. Even if the defeat is set, they will still fight to the last minute. They are bastards, but also fighters!"

In response to the needs of propaganda, Murphy also specifically stood up to respond to this protest, for which he accepted an interview with "Premier".

"Should movies be responsible for social violence? I think this is a very broad subject, and I cannot fully answer it as a director."

In the attitude of not being shocked and dead, Murphy first threw a gimmick, and then said, "We now have perfect legal protection, and the rating system can also prevent minors from entering the theater where "Inglourious Basterds" are shown."

He then threw out another heavy news, "Inglourious Basterds" is about a group of American Jewish soldiers who committed crimes that were originally going to be sentenced to death, but they were allowed to commit crimes and perform meritorious deeds and go deep into France occupied by the Communists. Sabotage. However, there may be a little misunderstanding that needs to be clarified. The story is actually centered on Sosanna, played by Australian actress Margot Robbie."

The focus of the next publicity will turn to Margot Robbie, and Murphy will also help her attract the attention of the media.

Today's Margot Robbie is not an unknown actress. She has always played the important role of Sansa Stark in the "Game of Thrones" crew. This series has always maintained a high degree of popularity. The attention received by the actors is as good as before.

In particular, Margot Robbie was younger and more beautiful than the sturdy three fools, and he was more spiritual and naturally more popular.

Especially in the third season, which started airing in May, the almost crazy "Blood Wedding" shocked countless viewers and media. It received a super high score of 9.9 points on multiple rating websites, and was even praised by some media as a rating in the history of human TV dramas. The highest episode directly pushed "Game of Thrones" to a peak.

The actors among them also benefited a lot.

To arouse people's appetite, bait must not be thrown enough at once, it must be added again and again.

"Miss Robbie's Sosanna is the core role." Murphy kept throwing new topics. "She is not only an ordinary female character, but also a crazy murderous bastard."

After the post-production of "Inglourious Basterds" was completed, like other well-known members of the crew, Murphy also began to make high-profile appearances at various events and attended the Saturn Awards ceremony held this month.

It was not Gail Gadot who attended with him, but Robert Downey Jr.

"I am the guest of awards." Robert Downey Jr. was present for the simple reason, "Michael Douglas is also the guest of awards."
