After such a long preparation, the image of Thanos as the overlord of the universe has been established, and the power of the Infinity Stones has also been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people. Because of this, "Avengers 3 and 4" will make all movie fans look forward to it.
But the DC movie universe did not make enough preparations for Darkseid. When it appeared, many viewers even mistakenly thought he was Thanos.
Moreover, other heroes in "Justice League" also lack foreshadowing, such as Cyborg, Aquaman, Flash and so on. So when they show up, the audience doesn't even know who they are, and they have to search the Internet to find out.
Actually, if Xiang Nan came to arrange the DC Universe, there would be individual solo movies of Superman, Batman, Cyborg, Wonder Woman, Aquaman, and The Flash first.
Among them, Cyborg, Neptune, Flash, and Wonder Woman can all lead to the mother box of all things, and then lead to its original owner Darkseid.
After four films, the magic of the mother box of all things and the power of Darkseid have become a consensus. These heroes are already well-known, and it is enough to arrange for them to fight again at this time.
It's a pity that in order to catch up with Marvel, Warner hastily arranged for them to play a game without waiting for the characters to be laid out. As a result, not only did it fail miserably at the box office, but it also suffered a disastrous loss in word of mouth. Especially "Justice League", it is even more crazy.
…
In addition, Warner did not make a good plan for the DC universe, and it was completely a stick in the east and a stick in the west.
For example, Nolan's "Batman" trilogy is really good, achieving the unity of commercial and artistic. DC originally wanted to follow the style of "Batman" and expand its own movie universe.
Therefore, in "Superman: Man of Steel", Superman always looks bitter and bitter, and is entangled between the earthlings and the Kryptonians.
Compared to the self-willed and unrestrained Iron Man, such a hard-working Superman is naturally not very popular.
After , "Batman v Superman" and "Justice League" also pursued artistry too much, but lacked entertainment and refreshment, resulting in the box office of several films not being strong.
So after that, DC was ready to change its style, changing from Nolan's deep style to Marvel's entertainment style, and launched "Aquaman", "Thunder Shazam" and so on. And with such a toss, five or six years were lost.
Because of five or six years, Warner has been frustrated, so the DC movie universe has not released a few movies. In five years, only five movies were released in total.
In comparison, the Marvel Cinematic Universe releases five movies a year. In the past ten years, more than 40 superhero movies have been released, with a profit of more than 12 billion US dollars.
The five DC films earned a maximum of 700 million US dollars, a difference of more than ten times. And that's the difference!
…
But DC is not bad, at least it can make money, and if it is improved in the future, there is still money to be made.
Like Lionsgate was originally planning to create the "Hellboy" universe, this comic is very influential in the United States, and it is all-encompassing.
Greek mythology, Nordic mythology, Eastern European mythology, Japanese mythology, Eastern mythology, and Indian mythology are all in one batch. There are many heroes and bosses, and it has a strong Cthulhu style.
If you make it well, it is actually very attractive. Like Guillermo del Toro, he made two "Hellboy" films, which are very popular.
The first part of the "Hellboy" universe created by Lionsgate was so miserable, it also caused the entire project to collapse and was announced to be cancelled.
Fox Films launched the "Alien" prequel "Prometheus" series. For this reason, Mr. Ridley Scott was specially invited back to sit in charge.
It's a pity that although the film has a good reputation, its box office performance is very average. Especially "Alien: Covenant", with an investment of 97 million US dollars, the global box office is only 230 million US dollars, which is also not profitable.
For this reason, Fox Films also stopped the creation of the "Alien" universe.
Sony Pictures originally wanted to use "Night of the Living Dead" to create a zombie universe, but after "Night of the Living Dead" was released, it also failed miserably at the box office, and its reputation was a mess.
Not just because of the plot of "Night of the Living Dead" and the perfunctory special effects.
The key is that the "Resident Evil" series has just ended, and this series of movies is also about zombies. Although the reputation is not very good, but the influence is great, and every movie can make money.
Judgment is the first, unless the quality of "Night of the Living Dead" is much higher than that of "Resident Evil", it is possible to turn things around. Unfortunately, it ultimately failed.
Thus, although the movie universe makes money, only Universal Pictures is currently successful. And it's more than one movie universe, the X-Men universe, the monster universe, the Midnight Sons universe, Harry Potter and the Avengers universe are equally successful.
This is really enviable.
Also because it outshines the film universe, its stock price also outshines many Hollywood film companies. At present, its market value has exceeded 200 billion US dollars.
…
In February, after the Spring Festival, Xiang Nan and Cong Shan returned to Hollywood, and then began to prepare for "Taken 3". At this time, he has also decided to play the role of Gu Yi himself.
On the one hand, his acting skills are enough, on the other hand, his identity is enough. Playing Gu Yi by him can also bring some popularity to "Doctor Strange".
Besides, the Marvel Universe is so popular, it would be a pity that he didn't play the role, so let's just play Gu Yi.
But because he still has to shoot "Taken 3", the role in "Doctor Strange" can only be postponed first.
…
When the news came out that Xiang Nan was confirmed to play Gu Yi, it immediately detonated Facebook, Twitter, Weibo and other media, and fans of the Marvel Universe were all excited.
First off, Xiang Nan is really suitable for this role. He is strong in martial arts and proficient in qigong, he really has the demeanor of a peerless master;
Secondly, for so many years, Xiang Nan has always been the hottest actor in Hollywood, bar none. In the 1980s and 1990s, Stallone, Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jim Carrey, Tom Cruise, Brad Pitt, Johnny Depp, etc. like him, all Gradually passed away by coincidence.
Only Xiang Nan is still on the front line, and the movies he releases become popular every year. It has been popular for nearly forty years, which is rare in the history of world film.
Therefore, it is really suitable for such a big star to join the Marvel Universe, playing the role of the supreme mage who protects the earth with profound magic. Everyone is looking forward to his performance.
