Eight hundred and thirty first chapter the most powerful
This so-called reflection does not mean that Chris Kyle's personal reflection. Chris Kyle is an American soldier and a powerful legendary sniper. As the protagonist of a war movie, he must also be a tough guy character.
Matthew has seen many videos about snipers. In the past decade or even twenty years, few films with snipers as the protagonist have succeeded, and none of them have succeeded.
From the sample book of "American Sniper" and the failed sniper movies before, Matthew thought about it and roughly had an idea that was not particularly clear.
The theme of the film can be reflected on the anti-war, but Chris Kyle himself must be a true man of iron.
He can't be like the sniper maker in other soft chick movies, and he always goes back on his word, fears, and fears of retribution.
In the future movie adaptation, Chris Kyle is a hard cowboy. I killed someone, I was right, and I killed according to the procedure. My killing is for the sake of defense. I am not afraid, I do not regret, and I am not afraid of meeting God at all!
This is the soul of the character. I am not only brave, but I also know why I am brave.
The anti-war is left to the theme of the entire film to express.
Chris Kyle is from Texas, and he is actually a tough cowboy, such a character...
Matthew thought of what Bella Anderson had just said and found a well-known director to direct it. Steven Spielberg seemed not suitable. He always gave the film too much humanistic thoughts. If the future film is a film with reflection as the theme and courageous appearance, which well-known director is suitable?
A hard cowboy?
In an instant, a person's name flashed out of Matthew's head, Clint Eastwood!
Dongdamu is old, but he is still a cowboy at heart. When the cowboy is old, he is also an old cowboy!
Maybe it would be difficult for someone to invite Clint Eastwood, but Matthew believed that if he sent an invitation, the old cowboy would agree.
Back then, he angrily criticized Spike Lee, whom Clint Eastwood hated the most, the black director who often bombarded Dongdamu, not only was he forced out of Hollywood, but he was also addicted to drugs. It is said that his body has collapsed, and maybe he would meet the gods of the Black Lives Matter when he would go to see the God of the Black Lives Matter.
Clint Eastwood personally said that he owed him a great favor.
As we all know, the old cowboy has a famous tough temper and always counts the words he says.
If you can invite Clint Eastwood, the director problem of this film will be solved, and Clint Eastwood also has experience in shooting war films.
As for the ideas he was thinking, it might not be correct. After winning the copyright of "American Sniper" and inviting Clint Eastwood, it would not be too late to make detailed plans.
Unfortunately, this kind of video is a one-time deal, unlike "Twilight" and "The Hunger Games", which can be made into a series.
The next day, Matthew returned to Disney Studios and continued to participate in the filming of "Fast and Furious 5".
With more main characters in the film, he must have diluted the scenes of the two male protagonists. He has long known this, but there is also an advantage, that is, there is relatively fewer scenes during filming, and he has more time and energy to devote himself to other work.
Matthew is not only an actor, but also a producer and investor.
After four consecutive days of filming at Disney Studios, Matthew received another two days of vacation, but he didn't have time to rest, so he went to Paramount Pictures to meet Stephen Somos and Hasbro's project leader.
"Special Forces 2" is being prepared in full swing, and the first draft of the script has been completed. This sequel is temporarily named "Comprehensive Counterattack". Whether it is the Special Forces side or the Cobra side, many new characters will be added.
In terms of special forces, the newly added characters are Flint, Snake Eye and Miss Jay, while in terms of Cobra, the Firefly, White Ghost and Thomas Brothers.
Of course, with Matthew, the male lead and producer, the plot of "Special Forces 2: Comprehensive Counterattack" is still closely related to the Duke.
But Matthew was also mentally prepared, and he probably finished the third part at most.
Hasbro and Paramount Pictures join Flint, one of the two leading actors in the comics, probably in preparation for replacing the Duke. Although Flint's setting in the script is a recruit, even Miss Jay is not as good as Miss Jay, it is too easy for the movie to make a character explode.
Now "Special Forces: The Rise of Cobra" has been a great success. If everything goes well, the trilogy is enough to completely establish the brand in this series, and the impact of changing the protagonist will be much smaller.
Matthew knew very well that his high pay and share would be a huge burden on Hasbro and Paramount Pictures.
However, this is good. After the trilogy, the ones left behind will be left to Paramount Pictures and Hasbro to clean up.
Since he had this idea, Matthew would not be polite to these two companies and put forward a lot of opinions on the first version of the script, the most important thing was to ensure the Duke's role and suppress the presence of Flint.
Flint, who appears in "Special Forces 2: Comprehensive Counterattack", is not only a new recruit, but also very weak most of the time.
As for Hasbro and Paramount Pictures’ idea of joining the roadblock and Sergeant Slaft, Matthew clearly objected, and the two companies had to cancel the plan.
He will protect his own interests to the greatest extent possible.
After attending the preparatory meeting for "Special Forces 2", Matthew went to Marvel Studios again and had a talk with Kevin Feige.
Now it has entered 200 years, Marvel's ambitious Avengers Universe is about to usher in a climax. "Avengers" is preparing for the early stages.
This time, Kevin Feige came to him mainly for him, with the purpose of collecting debts.
"Avengers" has begun preparations in full, with a production budget of up to $220 million, and Marvel Studios needs a large amount of funds.
Kevin Feige urged Matthew to invest money quickly.
Of course, this kind of thing cannot be delayed. Matthew made it clear that his investment share would be transferred into a third-party guaranteed account in batches as planned.
In addition, Matthew once again told Kevin Feige that he would not interfere with the preparation and production of the video.
Besides, even if he wants to intervene, he doesn't have the ability.
"Avengers" is a movie that many comic fans and superhero fans are looking forward to, but it is not friendly to the creators. This movie is not a popular hot commodity in the eyes of Hollywood directors. The reason is actually very simple: too many heroes, too many different super abilities, and it is too difficult to mix them together.
It's better to leave this problem to Kevin Feige, I believe he has such ability.
Besides, the era of superhero movies has arrived!
This era is different from the past, people need a new hero, which is more gorgeous, exaggerated, magical, and richer and more secret than before.
This kind of hero must transcend the constraints of the mechanical and electronic ages, become a new myth, carrying new dreams, and Superman, Batman and later superheroes satisfy all of this.
More importantly, this kind of superhero is produced in large quantities and continuously, with various types and styles to choose from, but it can be bought for only a few dollars. Especially in North America, where the financial crisis and turbulent after 2008, is there any "simple version of the Bible" that is easier to obtain, more interesting and more comforting than this?
The popularity of superhero movies is not only carefully created by the producers, but also closely related to the social environment.
Having said that, in the post-9 era, Americans also need superheroes.
Nowadays, Matthew invests in more and more film projects, and in addition to being a superstar, it is inevitable to disperse some of his energy.
Fortunately, there are not many difficulties in performing these commercial movies for him now.
"Fast and Furious 5" successfully ended part of the filming at Disney Studios, with Justin Lin and Bearded Jack planning to switch to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil in early February to film most of the outdoor scenes.
Before going to Brazil, Matthew received an invitation.
Led by the United Nations Women and Children's Fund and jointly with several North American children and women's rights protection organizations, a large-scale charity event was planned, inviting him, a well-known social activist and philanthropist to participate.
Many wealthy celebrities will participate in this event.
Matthew responded, and the event itself did not conflict with his itinerary. It was just in time to come back from filming from Rio de Janeiro.
In addition, "Twilight 2: The Crescent Moon" has been released from North America.
This video is a standard fast-moving consumer goods. It ended its theater journey in just fifteen weeks after it was released in North America.
Fortunately, the box office won is impressive enough.
Twilight 2: Crescent Moon's final North American box office was $32.4 million.
Compared with the production cost of more than 50 million US dollars, this box office figure can be said to be a great success.
At this point, all three films directly related to Matthew in 2009 were removed from North American theaters, and without exception, they appeared in the top five in the North American annual box office rankings!
Although many films released in 2009 have not finished screenings yet, the situation will basically not change
In 2009, the North American box office champion was "Avatar", and the box office of this film has surpassed "Titanic", becoming the box office champion in North American film history; the second place is "Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen King Kong"; the two films starring Matthew, "Fast and Furious 4" and "Special Forces: Rise of the Cobra" occupy third and fifth respectively, and the fourth place is "Twilight 2: Crescent Moon" he invested in.
This ranking shocked the entire Hollywood.
In the latest Hollywood power rankings, Matthew became Hollywood's most powerful person in 2009 without any suspense.
In addition to the already recognized superstar, the name of a successful producer has gradually been linked to Matthew.
North American entertainment media have set off another wave of hype about news related to him, and there are even a large number of media, listing all the actresses and female models he has had a brief relationship with and hyping them, which has benefited a lot.
There are more women who also see the benefits of joining logging.
