Before you know it, "Godzilla vs. Kong 2" has been on the big screen in North America for two weeks! This epic monster masterpiece has had a good reputation since its release, and the venue is full, and it is hard to find a ticket. Yellow cards and traffic paralysis over the weekend, just to catch a glimpse of the latest fierce battle of the two superstars' "Battle for Earth"!
Director Adam Weingard can be said to have used all his power this time to make the ultimate showdown between the two "heavyweight" monsters thrilling. Judging from the tidbits that flowed out of the words, the set can be described as a one-shot deal, and the scene is out of control. Many staff members were intimidated by the action scenes of these two "behemoths", for fear of being "accidentally injured". What's even more interesting is that because Godzilla and King Kong are so tall, many stuntmen are not short enough to be "standard", so they have no choice but to hire a group of "big men" to replace them.
And the lineup of the two "protagonists" is even more gorgeous! Godzilla is led by a professional "Godzilla manipulation team" this time, which can be called an authority in the industry, and King Kong has invited the highly respected "orangutan imitation master" to control it. The production team in order to ensure that the two "stars" are 100% in place. Unexpectedly, in the episode of these two "film veterans", a "lion fight" was staged on the set!
Director Adam was almost driven crazy, and the seemingly high-end and atmospheric shooting scene was simply a pot of porridge. However, looking at the final film, these "two love-tricks" guys really deserve their name, and they do their best to add a lot of highlights to the film. Especially the wonderful "sticks fighting each other" scene, many fans have seen enough of the "ruthless work"!
In addition to the bizarre anecdotes on the set, the private lives of the two "protagonists" are also of great interest. It turned out that this "golden orangutan" was found sneaking into a baby goods store during a break in filming, and lingering on a high-end crib. Could it be that it already has a "little baby"? And who is its "gossip girlfriend"? I really hope it is not a "scumbag"!
In contrast, Godzilla's private life seems to be much more "innocent". However, its director, Adam Weingard, broke out the "wake up" incident. Some media pointed out that during the filming of "Gejin 2", he evoked a conflict with his wife and was severely "scolded". It turned out that this director, who usually seems to be calm and sophisticated, soaked himself too deep into the work when he was working, and only cared about "working hard" all day long, ignoring his wife and children. Fortunately, in the end, the two reconciled as before, otherwise it would be a "big article"!
The social influence of "Gojin 2" is obvious to all. Since the release of this film, the Internet has been overwhelmingly covered with topics related to it, and the number of views is amazing. Many young people even made the lines of the two protagonists into emojis and went viral on social media. It can be said that it has become a popular cultural symbol and has led a "gold fever"!
Film critics praised the film for not only being a visual feast, but also showing the complexity of human nature and the primitive instincts of the animal world, which makes people empathize. After all, everyone has a "little dinosaur" or "Donkey Kong" in their hearts!
And just as "Gojin 2" continues to be hot, another new film "Furious Monkey" will also hit this week! This action blockbuster directed and acted by Dave Patel has a pretty good reputation at the beginning, with a freshness of 87% on Rotten Tomatoes, and fans have also given 83% popcorn points.
The film tells the story of a father and two sons who survive brutally after the end of the world. Although the background of the story is gloomy, judging from the trailer, the pace of the film is quite tight, and the action scenes are quite exciting. What's more, it incorporates a lot of humor and seems to be trying to provide some breathing space in a disaster scenario.
However, it is still difficult to say whether this film can turn things around and end its dominance under the frenzy of "Gojin 2". After all, the former's strength is too strong, but it makes people feel that "Angry Monkey" is more like a "temporary worker", who can only work as a temporary worker on the side.
But even if they lose the battle in the end, Universal Pictures, the distributor of "Raging Monkeys", doesn't need to worry too much. Because it is reported that the streaming giant Netflix has spent $10 million to win the copyright of the film, which can be said to have earned back a lot of costs in a "mess".
Therefore, have the audience and friends begun to look forward to the "fire merger" of these two tough guy blockbusters? What kind of visual feast will Godzilla, King Kong, and Dave Patel bring us on the screen? We will wait and see! Maybe your life and I will also be enlightened and find a positive force.
