"Spider-Man: Heroes Of No Return" has been soaring at the box office since its release, and due to the gimmick of the three generations of the same frame, the global box office has now exceeded 1.2 billion US dollars (more than 7.6 billion yuan), and it has become the highest-grossing film under the filmmaker Sony Pictures.
The results are so beautiful, it is easy for the lead actor to start to have a fluttering mentality, and some media or people with ulterior motives will dig a pit again, and they will easily step into it.
Last year, Martin Scorsese, the grandmaster of Hollywood, commented on Marvel movies, saying that Marvel movies can't be called movies because of their cookie-cutter production model, and are more like theme parks and the like.
Originally, this matter has been a long time, but with the release of "Heroes of No Return", another media has brought up this matter, and they ask the Dutch brother what he thinks of Martin's statement?
Interestingly, the Dutchman's response was very rude, he said:
"You can ask Martin Scorsese if he wants to make a Marvel movie, and he doesn't really know what a Marvel movie is like because he's never made it."
"I've made Marvel movies myself, I've made Oscar-based films, and the only difference between them is the production budget, which is that one is much more expensive than the other. But as far as I understand, whether it is the character design, the director's portrayal of the story and the way the characters are curved, it's all the same, just the scale of production is different, so I think Marvel movies are also real art. ”
"You can also ask benedict Cumberbatch, Robert Downey Jr. or Scarlett Johansson, who have made Oscar-winning films and made superhero films, and they've told you that these films are the same except for their different sizes."
I have to say that the Dutch brother is indeed young and vigorous, and he even went to a director of Martin Scorsese's level who did not understand movies.
Maybe there will be children's shoes to say, who is this Martin, why can't he question or refute what he says?
Let's put it this way, during the rapid development of Hollywood in the last century, there was a group of directors who led the entire era, and this group of directors was not optimistic at first, known as "movie ghosts", but then they completely ruled Hollywood.
Their contribution to the field of film is also incomparable, and it is safe to say that the reason why Hollywood can become the entertainment center of the world so quickly, and suddenly become the world's authority in the field of film and television, is indispensable to the credit of this group of directors.
Martin is one of the directors in this group, and he is a giant in the field who can talk and laugh with Spielberg and Francis, and various Oscars, Golden Globes and other awards can be said to be soft.
And the Dutch brother because of his youth, so the acting skills are actually that look, belongs to the bias of traffic actors, what awards and the like, and its own box office single carrying ability also needs to be verified, after all, Spider-Man's movie box office is outstanding, behind a large extent is to rely on Marvel this IP, rather than his personal box office appeal.
In layman's terms, the Dutch brother replied that Martin did not understand Marvel movies, just like those terriers we had seen on the Internet, some young people laughed at Luo Guanzhong: "Luo Guanzhong is a novelist, he understands a ghost's "Romance of the Three Kingdoms". ”
In fact, since Martin made the statement that "Marvel movies are not movies", many actors do not agree with his statement, but basically they will not directly accuse him of "not understanding movies".
After all, from a common sense point of view, this will make you appear very ignorant, from the interest point of view, Martin is a big director of the academic school, and he will only make his work difficult on the way to winning awards.
In fact, not only Martin, but also many directors and actors in the industry have expressed disdain and criticism of Marvel movies.
Dennis Villeneuve, director of Blade Runner 2049, said too many Marvel movies are "copy-paste"
He said that all Marvel movies are carved out of a mold, even if there are slight differences, some directors have added some materials to it, but on the whole it is still a factory product, which is too stereotypical.
The director of the classic film series "The Godfather", Francis Ford Coppola, was also one of the members of the "Little Ghost in The Movie" of that year.
He said: "We all hope to learn something from the movie, hope to get knowledge, inspiration, inspiration, and get some thinking, insight, I don't understand what everyone can learn by watching those cookie-cutter movies over and over again." It's already very polite to say that Marvel movies aren't movies, and in my eyes, these movies are despicable and disgusting. ”
Ang Lee, who made Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon, who has won the Oscar for best director twice, was also asked what he thought of Marvel movies.
He said: "I can't say that they are not movies, nor are they as dismissive as other directors, after all, they are also serious big productions, but I am not very interested in myself, and the audience will be tired of watching, because the same routines and models are used repeatedly, and they will only lose to the network in the end." ”
In addition to some famous directors, there are also some famous actors who are also very unpopular with Marvel movies.
For example, Jason Statham, who once turned down Marvel's offer, was asked in an interview why he was reluctant to make a Marvel movie, and said:
"Marvel's type of film, to put it bluntly, is to let a person pose in front of the green screen, do some action or something, and then use two hundred million dollars to go to the special effects to make it, this kind of movie my grandmother can wear a cape can be played without violation." 」
Of course, although the remarks of some industry personnel are a bit excessive, the so-called unprovoked love, nor the gratuitous hatred.
Marvel's assembly-line production model has indeed caused a great impact and impact on the Hollywood film industry.
This influence is to make many producers start this kind of stereotyped production, every link of a movie is fixed, popularly speaking, it is to put some puzzles together in the instruction manual, and never like before, will think of changing the shape of the puzzle.
Purely from the perspective of the film field, this is actually a very unfavorable thing to the development of the industry, the capital sees that this can make money, they will not think of any innovation, and it is easy to have bad money expelling good money in the end.
In fact, assembly line movies like Marvel do have their value, and this type of entertainment film is absolutely indispensable in the market.
But the problem is that once they occupy the absolute mainstream of the market, the impact on the industry is also very huge, according to that routine to shoot the assembly line can make so much money, then what care to make creative new movies?
Why hollywood movies in the past are so brilliant is because the producers have always been thinking about how to innovate, once they stop innovating, then this market will not develop, and it is only a matter of time before it falls.
However, the decline of Hollywood is also an opportunity for the rise of other markets, and it can only be said that domestic film and television practitioners have stepped up their efforts.
