My Animation Era

  Chapter 134 Xiaotu turned out to be the final boss? (seeking subscription)

  Du Hao is very irritable these days.

  As a rare animation-to-live-action drama, and it is a popular IP animation like "Sailor Moon", he is under a lot of pressure as a director.

   Where is the pressure coming from?

  Of course, because he was the director of the movie "Stellar Fall", because of the failure of the movie, animation fans questioned whether he could make a good live-action version.

   Rational fans speak more objectively. They said: Movies are movies, and TV dramas are TV dramas. You can't deny Director Du's talent just because of "Stellar Fall"!

   Fans who are not so rational, and who speak more irritatingly, have a less good attitude.

   "What kind of braggart is Du Hao? Is there anything special about him?"

   "I checked, and the only representative work of this director is actually a sci-fi movie that hit the street to death? It's so ridiculous!"

   "This time it has been transformed into a real person!"

   "I can't imagine how hot the live-action version of Moon Hare will be. Show me the makeup photos and throw up..."

   "One thing to say, the makeup photos are pretty good, don't be embarrassed about this. But I'm not very optimistic about this director candidate."

   Online public opinion is bad.

  Every post reporting on the live-action version of "Sailor Moon" is full of cynicism from animation fans, analyzing the reasons why they are not optimistic from various angles.

   Over there in Neon...

  According to the information Du Hao received, some fanatical fans of "Sailor Moon" went downstairs to the Wanbao Neon branch to protest the "real-life project".

   This incident has caused a lot of trouble.

   "It hasn't been filmed yet, so how can they conclude that the live-action version is a piece of shit?"

   Du Hao asked in puzzlement.

  He was very puzzled. If the film was indeed a pile of shit, then he would admit it even when he was scolded. After all, it was really not a good shot, and it failed everyone's trust.

  But it’s not over yet...

  It’s too embarrassing to start cursing before seeing the finished film, isn’t it? After he finishes filming and airs it, it's not too late to start scolding!

  Hearing his question, Gu Miao smiled and said, "Probably because there are too many cases of overturning animations and live-action TV dramas."

  The audience was scared.

  If we talk about manga adaptation, light adaptation, and game adaptation of live-action dramas, the probability of overturning is relatively high, and it is easy to produce bad movies. The probability of changing the animation to overturn can definitely reach more than 90%.

   So far…

  Whether it’s domestic or neon, or even in Europe and the United States, there are almost no works that are not eye-catching when animations are changed to live-action dramas.

  Successful cases are few and far between.

  In Gu Miao's impression, there seems to be no "anime-reform" live-action drama with a good reputation in the past ten years!

   Yes, none of them!

  Abstracted to such an extent, it is actually reasonable for the audience to have this reaction.

  If it wasn’t for being really scared of being tricked, who would refuse to remake their favorite animation works into live-action dramas?

   Of course, this is only one of the reasons.

  The reason why the live-action version of "Sailor Moon" has such a bad public opinion environment is partly due to Du Hao and his "Stellar Fall".

   "I am convinced..."

  Du Hao said helplessly: "Although the box office of "Stellar Fall" is bad, it's not that bad, right? At least I've done what I need to do, so there's no need to chase me all the time, right?"

   "Haha, just get used to it."

   Gu Miao comforted with a smile: "Winning and blowing, isn't this the usual style of Internet trolls? Thinking about the good, at least I didn't give you any ugly nicknames!"

Right!

  Looking at Gu Miao, Du Hao suddenly thought of the nickname "Four Maggot Brothers" which was widely spread in the industry, and his expression was instantly relieved.

  His black fans are still too weak compared to Gu Zong and his black fans.

  This year's black fans are not very good!

  After joking about the public opinion on the Internet, Gu Miao asked again: "What progress has the live-action filming made?"

   "Mercury blackened."

   Du Haoweng responded in a loud voice: "If everything goes well, the filming is expected to be completed in the second half of this year."

pretty good.

  Gu Miao nodded, very satisfied with the progress.

  Although compared to other TV dramas, this filming progress is a bit delayed, but this is because the young actors have to go to school.

   No need to go to school, the filming is already over!

   What's more, the filming is progressing too fast, which will also create a problem for the company: the animation version is not over yet, and the live-action version will be broadcast before the end of the animation version, won't it lead to spoilers?

   "Actually, there is no need to worry about this."

  Gu Miao thought for a while, and then explained: "Although the plot of the live-action version is derived from the animation version, it is actually not the same route."

spoiler? Does not exist!

  The plot of the live-action version of "Sailor Moon" can be regarded as a story that happened in a "parallel world". Although there are similarities with the animated version, the connection is not deep.

  Do you think that after watching the animated version, you can know the plot of the live-action version like the back of your hand?

   Big mistake!

  The plot of the live-action version of "Sailor Moon", not to mention animation fans, even the author of the original manga can't guess the follow-up development.

   After all, who would have thought...

   Sailor Moon, the first heroine Tsukino Usagi, is the final boss of the live-action version?

  Mercury has turned black, Dichangwei has a fiancée, Queen Belial has a crush on Dichangwei, Little Rabbit kills his lover, incarnates as the moon princess to destroy the world...

  Be reasonable!

Aside from the old-fashioned clothing, makeup and props due to the reasons of the times, as well as the embarrassing "manual transformation" of the evening dress mask that is so embarrassing that you can't breathe, in fact, the live-action version of "Sailor Moon" is really a Treasure TV series.

  The plot can be said to be very exciting.

  In the previous episodes, you may still be able to see some shadows of the original animation and comic versions.

  But starting from "Mercury's Blackening", the live-action version of the plot has completely walked out of a different path.

   Talking about dog blood is actually a little bit.

  But dog blood is better than copying the animation/manga version of the plot, right? At least fans who have watched animation or manga will not feel that the plot is without suspense when watching the live-action version.

  Being able to do this, Gu Miao thinks it is enough.

  By the way...

  Wanbao is filming the live-action version of "Sailor Moon", not to mention the magical changes to the plot.

  The live-action version of "Lei Sudeng Lightning Crossing the Line" produced by TBS next door has also undergone an epic "transformation" of the plot.

   Changed even more outrageously than Sailor Moon!

   How outrageous is it?

  As an animation producer and animation director, Gu Miao felt that her three views had been reshaped after watching the first few episodes of the live-action version of Lei Sudeng.

   Can't forget for a long time!

  He knew very early on that the screenwriter of TBS would start with the plot of "Lei Sudeng Lightning Crossing the Line" and carry out a transformation of the plot to adapt to the local neon and live-action.

   This was also granted by him.

   After all, in order to suit the tastes of neon audiences, it is a very reasonable request to make some minor adjustments to the plot.

  But he didn't expect that the screenwriter would change it like this...
