Looking at Kevin Feige, Murphy said seriously, "The war between Captain America and Iron Man is very suitable for giving dark colors and presenting a thick and deep tragic epic."

"Kevin!" Murphy said confidently, "If you trust me, this series can become a new benchmark for film noir and superhero films."

Hearing these words, Kevin Fitch found that he didn't know how to answer. He didn't invite sincerely, but Murphy gave a seemingly sincere reply, and these replies made him very tempted, and a wave of will The Captain America series handed him the urge.

Civil War comics are inherently tragic, and no one can deny Murphy's grasp of this heavy theme. Perhaps this series can really surpass "Man of Steel", which is considered the benchmark of superhero movies, in his hands.

For a moment, Kevin Feige really wanted to nod.

But he is the CEO of a company, not a child playing house games. The entire series has a clear plan. If something goes wrong in one link, the entire series may collapse. Dark style is not impossible, but it must not be like " As heavy as Man of Steel.

In addition, people from Walt Disney have already been in contact with Marvel Comics, and the other party has revealed their intention to acquire. The platform of the media group is unmatched by any single film company. Soar into the sky.

Even for the sake of Walt Disney's acquisition, he can't let the series have too heavy themes.

Inviting Murphy Stanton is a temptation. If he can change his style slightly and reduce his salary at the same time, it is not impossible for Marvel Pictures to consider him.

It now appears that this temptation is purely superfluous.

Marvel's Avengers series must be a juvenile movie for young people, and it must not become the type of "Man of Steel". Only in this way can Walt Disney be used as a platform in the future to promote it worldwide.

Since he ran over to test himself, Murphy was not very polite, and asked aggressively, "Kevin, how are you thinking? I promise, the Avengers can die one after another in a planned way, and every death will bring The audience was greatly shocked."

Having said that, superheroes are indeed very powerful, but their enemies are also beyond the scope of ordinary people, like the kind of large-scale group battles, if the undead...

It can only be said that this is the style of Walt Disney.

Turning a movie into a well-made series that still appeals to a large teenage audience deserves a lot of admiration from anyone.

In the previous "Captain America 3: Civil War", if a few front-line heroes can die, it will undoubtedly deepen and thicken the theme, and make the effect of the whole film even more shocking.

But Disney will always be Di Bao...

Murphy asked again, "How are you thinking, Kevin?"

"I... I'll think about it..." Kevin Feige thought it was better to go first, "I'll give you an answer another day."

After speaking, Kevin Fitch turned and left, never giving Murphy a chance to speak.

"Have you heard?" Looking at the back of Kevin Fitch leaving, Gal Gadot leaned into Murphy's ear and said, "Amazing Comics is in contact with Walt Disney. It is said that Disney intends to acquire Marvel Comics in its entirety. .”

"So," Murphy shrugged, "Even for this acquisition, Kevin Feige would not agree to my dark version of the Avenger proposal."

The main audience of Di Baobao are babies and underage babies.

Murphy looked at the time, "Let's go into the theater."

He and Gal Gadot walked towards the movie hall, and a person in front of them stood on the road they had to pass, as if he was waiting for him. The person looked at Murphy and greeted him proactively.

"Hi, Murphy."

"Long time no see, Diego." Murphy smiled.

The person who came over was none other than Diego Hares, CEO of DC Comics.

He nodded to Gal Gadot first, and then said to Murphy, "I just saw you chatting with Kevin Feige for a long time, are you planning to participate in Marvel's Avengers program?"

"They sent me an invitation, but I didn't agree." Murphy made up a sentence casually, "Their plan is completely opposite to my style."

Diego Hares moved in his heart and said, "Let's go back to DC's Justice League series. We need you to be the producer and take the helm for the entire series."

"Yes, I have always been willing to do this." Murphy has never rejected Warner Bros.'s proposal to let him be a producer. "You can go to my agent Bill Rossis to discuss the treatment issue at any time."

Hearing this, the smile on Diego Hares's face disappeared instantly. The conditions offered by Bill Rossis were very clear. Warner Bros. couldn't accept the super high remuneration of ten plus ten.

The basic salary of 10 million US dollars plus 10% of the global box office share is Murphy's bottom line, which is also the biggest difference between him and Warner Bros.

As in the past, this brief trial and negotiation came to nothing.

Murphy originally took over the series for the high rewards, and continued to stay in the series for the high rewards.

However, after all, he created a very successful start for the Justice League series, and he didn't want this series to be stepped on by the Avengers series, so he reminded Diego Hares a few words.

"Let me say a few words of my personal suggestion," Murphy thought for a moment, and said seriously to Diego Hares, "According to the plan I submitted at the time, use individual films to lay a solid foundation for the entire series. When the Justice League is assembled, success will become a matter of course. Also, the dark style is not suitable for all superheroes, and proper control must be carried out, especially in dark style movies other than Batman. The best fighting scenes are Put it in the daytime."

The relationship between him and Warner Bros. is nothing more than an ordinary business cooperation, and it is the utmost benevolence to say these few words. As for whether the high-level executives of DC and Warner Bros. can listen to it, it is not something that Murphy can control.

Murphy ignored the thoughtful Diego Hares, and walked towards the screening hall with Gal Gadot.

Probably because of the delayed relationship, when they went in, the screening of "Iron Man" had already started.

This is a film that has changed a lot from what Murphy remembers, as Robert Downey Jr. said, influenced by the addition of Wonder Woman to Man of Steel, Natasha Normanoff Agents appear in the film ahead of time.

However, the theme of the movie is simple, the atmosphere is relaxed, the pros and cons are clearly separated, and the villain is seriously facialized, and his strength is greatly weakened compared to the comics. It can be said to be a typical Marvel style, never considering digging deep into the theme of the film, and paying more attention to entertainment functions.

Moreover, the film clearly mentions the plan of the Avengers Alliance. For example, the film mentioned several times that Howard Stark once fought alongside Captain America Steve Rogers. meet.

A movie with a heavy theme is a style, and so is a lighthearted style. As long as it is done well enough, it can arouse the enthusiasm of the audience. "Man of Steel" belongs to the former, and "Iron Man" belongs to the latter.

Therefore, this film also has a very dramatic ending.

At the press conference, Tony Stark did not follow the script drafted by Agent Coulson, he directly announced to the media that I am Iron Man!

There was a sensation at the press conference, the reporters were like crazy, and the theater was also sensational, and the audience was instantly aroused.

From the beginning of the film to the present, the role of Tony Stark has brought a completely new kind of superhero. The character is full of personal charm, and finally revealed his identity as Iron Man, pushing this charm to the top!

In a Hollywood superhero movie, no one has ever publicly announced his identity.

Those traditional superheroes all hide their heads and show their tails, and live a double-faced life. Tony Stark is completely different.

But this alternative has brought them a brand new experience, a fresh stimulus.

This is definitely one of the biggest surprises of the movie, how can one not love Tony Stark and "Iron Man"?

Therefore, it is natural for "Iron Man" to be loved by ordinary audiences. The film was released for 3 days in the first weekend, and it took nearly 110 million US dollars in box office from more than 4,100 theaters in North America. The Avengers franchise has been as successful as Man of Steel.

At the same time as the box office exploded, there was also word-of-mouth of the film.

"Although I am tired of saving the world in superhero movies, I have to admit that "Iron Man" is really, really cool! The visual effects of this movie are really good, and it can be called the best special effects. It is also the biggest reason for me to watch this film, the equipment in the film, OMG! The house, the things in the laboratory, those mechanical arms that can understand human language, those sports cars, the power of the missiles, the new The air test flight of the armor, the first battle, it's all so cool!"

"The production process of Iron Man is full of metal aesthetics, very cool, and the exquisite special effects have no sense of disobedience, which makes the movie an excellent viewing experience. The plot is very smooth, it is done in one go without procrastination, and there are no obvious loopholes, which is enough to attract people."

Since he was released from prison, Robert Downey Jr. has returned to normal at a faster speed with the help of Murphy. The great success of "Iron Man" and the previous accumulation have allowed him to completely get rid of the image of an addict. , and firmly entered the ranks of Hollywood first-line superstars.

This undoubtedly gave Robert Downey Jr. more capital and more confidence to face the unbearable past events.

Murphy, Ross, and Robert Downey Jr. met again at a bar near Old Chinatown, and a highly targeted program began.
