Hollywood Road

Ask for monthly and recommended tickets!

Murphy never hesitated when the right opportunity appeared in front of him to create an eye-catching topic, so the words of this female reporter immediately made him interested, and gave up those routine answers, in a very short time. A more appropriate answer was thought of in an instant.

Frankly speaking, the reputation of "City of Chaos" is really good, but it can't get rid of the limitations of non-sequel original films. The box office growth does not seem to be in line with the total investment of US$300 million in production costs plus publicity costs.

Especially starting from tomorrow, the new week is about to kick off. "City of Chaos" will face the test of the working day. If you don't create more topics in publicity, it might be like most original films. After the weekend is about to face a sharp drop in the box office.

It's normal for the sales of ticket sales on working days to decline, but if the daily income of the ten million dollar level drops to two to three million dollars, no one wants to see it.

Murphy throws out such an answer, of course, it has its own purpose.

The female reporter was also very on the road, and immediately asked curiously, "Why was the film prepared in the first place? We haven't seen a similar film released?"

"That was just a plan, and it was not implemented in the end." Murphy deliberately sold it off. "To be precise, the production company rejected the plan."

For a director like him, everything that happens is news, not to mention the big event that the movie plan has been rejected.

All the reporters present at the scene realized almost at the same time that this is a movie news that could make waves, and they were also curious about which production company actually vetoed such a director's project.

"New York Times" reporter Brad Hans Bain asked, "Murphy, which company is it, can you talk about it?"

"Hmm..." Murphy looked a little bit difficult, as if he didn't want to talk much.

The female reporter urged, "Your fans must really want to know about this."

Then there was a roar from reporters, "The public has the right to know!"

"Yes!"

"Which company is it?"

There was a mess of questioning all around, Murphy raised his hand and made a downward gesture. After the surrounding voice became quieter, he said, "A few years ago, I am going to cooperate with Warner Bros...."

Hearing the name Warner Bros., all reporters pricked their ears. People in the know know that although Murphy and Warner Bros. and DC Comics collaborated on the masterpiece "Man of Steel", it was because of the pay and the route of the adaptation. , The trouble between the two parties is not very pleasant.

Now that it started, Murphy never thought of stopping, "How do you say? Everyone should be able to see that "City of Chaos" is not a single story, but a series of stories."

The reporters nodded lightly. This is already obvious in the film. The magician of James Franco was specifically explained that he was definitely not out for soy sauce, and the murderer who killed Reina seemed to be Jay Rachel. The father of the Senator, this character has not yet come to fruition.

This film obviously has the next one, or even the next two, to form a complete trilogy.

Murphy has changed the entire story, and is not worried about copyright disputes with DC's comics. "This trilogy about "City of Chaos" was originally written for Batman."

"What?"

"what?"

"Batman?"

"Batman Trilogy?"

"He thought about adapting Batman?"

There was a commotion among the reporters at the scene, and they didn't seem to expect that the name Batman would pop out of Murphy's mouth.

"Yes, it's Batman!" Murphy wanted this effect, and continued, "Although "City of Chaos" has changed a lot from the original project, story and plot I prepared for Batman, the frame and theme of the film It hasn't changed."

He smiled, "In fact, Batman's dark knight identity is very suitable for this film."

The reporters here are all journalists who specialize in movies and Hollywood. They have some research on this industry. I think about the hero of "City of Chaos", and then think about Mr. Bruce Wayne. If New York is replaced by Gotham, Mr. The setting is the same as Chris Dann, which is very suitable for the theme and atmosphere of this film.

In some respects, these two roles are a little bit similar. For example, they both lost their fathers in childhood, but Bruce Wayne’s father is a real good man, and Chris Dann’s father is only real in front of his son. Good people.

Murphy sighed for a long time, "Unfortunately, Warner Bros. thought that my adaptation completely overturned the comics. It was too dark and heavy, and rejected the plan, so I could only start anew..."

Having said that, he shook his head vigorously, looking very regretful.

"New York Times" reporter Brad Hans Bain asked again, "Murphy, can you talk about why Warner Bros. refused?"

"They think the story is too dark, heavy, and depressing..." Murphy shrugged. "I don't know the rest. You are going to ask the people at Warner Bros."

Murphy winked, and Grace, who accompanied him, immediately stood up and said loudly, "That's all for today's interview, thank you for your concern!"

Several bodyguards separated a channel and escorted Murphy and Grace into the RV. Gal Gadot and Margot Robbie were already waiting in the car.

"Grace." Murphy ordered, "tell Carla Faith and Bill of what you just said, and let them take care of them as appropriate."

He glanced at Margot Robbie, then lowered his voice, and said to Grace, "Notify our black fan organization to spread relevant news on the Internet. This topic must be heated up."

After he had an idea at the beginning, he worked with CAA to form a more specialized black powder organization from the originally loose network navy.

Professional black powder is more efficient and more targeted than the network navy.

Moreover, the North American Internet has developed to this stage. Since the "Blair the Witch" in the 1990s, the Internet naval forces used by Hollywood have fallen behind. More professional Internet hype tools are also people like Murphy. Indispensable.

The video of Murphy's interview was uploaded to the oily turtle almost immediately, which immediately attracted considerable attention.

After less than half an hour, relevant information on social networking sites represented by Facebook and Twitter was also widely followed and reposted. In addition, Murphy’s black fan organization added fuel to the flames. The connection between "City" and Batman and Warner Bros. quickly became a hot topic of entertainment.

Murphy and Warner Bros. are the focus. Unfortunately, the latter has basically become the villain, especially among DC fans.

A user named'I love Bruce Wayne', after reposting Murphy's interview video, wrote on his Twitter, "Seeing the thrilling and dark heavy theme of "City of Chaos" I can imagine how wonderful this story would be if it happened to the master! Originally Murphy Stanton might have given Batman a new life on the big screen, but it was given by the pigs of Warner management destroyed!"

A message on Facebook represents the aspirations of many DC fans, "Think about the excitement of "City of Chaos", and think about Clark Kent's brilliance through "Man of Steel". Bruce Wayne missed Murphy. -Stanton, may be the biggest regret in Batman's life!"

Someone followed up with a comment, "Distressed Master!"

Another reposter wrote, “I was heartbroken when I saw the video of Murphy’s interview today. I’m going to see "City of Chaos" tonight to soothe my heartache."

This is just one of the representatives. Many DC fans who didn’t pay attention to "City of Chaos", after reading these news and information, the most direct idea is to buy tickets to go to the theater to see this film, and Murphy brought DC before. Superhero movies have never been brilliant before, and they will not be disappointed after watching them.

Although Chris Dann and Bruce Wayne are very different, the common dark attributes still make DC fans quite moved.

"If Chris Dan is replaced by Bruce Wayne, the whole story will definitely become even more soul-stirring!"

"Strongly call on Murphy to come back and continue directing DC's superhero movies, especially the restart of the Batman movie. He will definitely bring us a dark epic!"

Similar voices emerge endlessly on social networking sites.

The top leaders of Warner Bros. and DC Comics have also become targets pursued by reporters and paparazzi. Regardless of whether they participated in the meeting with Murphy, they will all be asked why they rejected Murphy Stanton’s proposed "Batman" movie.

There were even reporters who ran to Warner Bros’ premiere executive Bruce Rosenblum and asked him in person, “Seeing "City of Chaos" has a huge reputation and a good box office, do you regret rejecting Murphy Stein? Dayton's kind of question.

All of these annoyed Bruce Rosenboom. The black pot made by his predecessor now requires him to recite.

In this series of word-of-mouth marketing and publicity hype, as the direct competitor of "City of Chaos" this weekend, "Thor" has received less and less attention, and it is inevitable that there will be marginalization, and starred in "Thor" Apart from being criticized for face-to-face interviews and lack of acting skills, the several actors of ”hardly received any positive comments.

The most famous Natalie Portman is no exception.

She didn't think of anything. She appeared in a commercial masterpiece again after a lapse of many years, and what she got was this.

On Monday morning, Natalie Portman was sitting in the VIP dining room of the Four Seasons Hotel, drinking skimmed milk and reading the newspaper just delivered by her assistant. Seeing the hype about "City of Chaos", she always had something in her heart. Unspeakable depressed.

This Murphy Stanton is shameless to the extreme!
