”Magic Yang will name” Batman2 ”as” The-Dark-ght ”.”-Yahoo Entertainment
The first Batman movie in history without ”Batman”!
Yesterday, Warner Brothers released this amazing news. Like this big production, the title of the film is naturally finalized through consultation between the production team and the distribution department, etc., and the reaction of the fans of the movie fans will be tested first, but here is the super big name Wang Yang , Jump directly to the last step! Suddenly, the dark fans once again sighed with emotion, ”Wang Yang's brain is not hurt!”; However, what makes Warner somewhat overwhelming is that most of the fans are actually full of interest and praise!
”I like the name,” Dark Knight ”is really cool and masculine!” NyT said, ”! I finally believe that MY is going to take over” Batman ”, oh no, it is” Dark Knight ”!” H said; ” Now a new chapter! The title of ”The Dark Knight” has made me understand how different it will be, goodbye to ”Batman”! ”ElL said ... l, ty, Great! The Warner Bros. got a satisfactory answer as soon as they tried the water.
But without ”Batman”, it means that the atmosphere of the adaptation of superhero comics is weakened. It seems that it is also giving up part of the fan resources of ”Batman”; the advantage is that it has a clear relationship with ”Batman Moment of War”, and at the same time, ”MY” can Make ”TDK” blush easily, = Batman,> Batman.
”The 500 Days of Shamo” was also filmed in San Francisco yesterday, because it was a street scene, and a large number of studio photos were exposed by reporters. Fans and fans did not find any spoilers. I saw a refreshing short hair Nata. Li Portman and Joseph Gordon Levitte walked on the street, walked to the tram, etc .; the ”Magic Yang wounded in battle”, which is the world's most concerned about, did not fall, he held the viewfinder in his left hand, and his face was serious To direct the fat man photographer, he gave the two main speeches and demonstrations, he took the water bottle of the wife of the visiting class ...
”Hey, this is Lin, Magic Yang. Good morning! Ha ha, are you looking for me? Oh, yes ...”
As the vice president of the production department of Warner Bros., Dan Wei (Dan-n) has recently increased his pressure to a point where it is about to collapse. The reason is that his main producer, ”Batman Time to War”, suffered a major loss. The company launched its accountability. President Jeff Robinov not only crossed the Bodhisattva River, but also intended to make him bear more responsibility for failure. If it were not for Miracle Yang, he would suddenly take over ”Batman”. Big, but now he does not have a few projects on hand.
For ”I am Legend”, he and Jeff Robinov are the same opinion, absolutely can not be sold to the flame film! But who would listen to them now? At this time, he suddenly heard Wang Yang from the mobile phone saying, ”Dan, are you interested in coming to the flame movie?”
”What do you mean ...” Lin Wei's heart jumped and accelerated, and Magic Yang invited me to jump to flame! ? He couldn't help walking back from the garden to the house, it seemed to be talking about the big secret; Wang Yang's passionate voice continued to come out: ”Yes, nothing wrong! Dan, I know you are a capable person, who has a market Very extraordinary grasp, you understand, I need talents like you, I will not ask you to come over and put you aside, no, we are doing business, man, think about it. ”
Since his debut in 1999, due to the relationship between Warner Brothers and Flame as competitors, the relationship between Lin Wei and Wang Yang is not deep, but there have been some dealings, and those Asian awards have also been met at the award ceremony. At the beginning, the Warner Brothers were confident that they could invite Wang Yang, but they believed that Dan Lin would play a key role. Who knows that it will end in failure! Now Allen-F-Horn blames this for his inability to handle things. From high expectations to repeated disappointments, the Warner brothers have lost patience with Lin Wei.
Lin Wei knew that it was indeed the best time to change jobs. He resigned from the trend and the company would not retain or blame. On the contrary, some people took the responsibility of ”Moment of War”; instead, they turned to the flame movie, which is with the flame honeymoon Warner. You will be surprised but not resentful. The key is to stay in Warner and change flames more promising? Can he support him to realize his goal of creating his own production company as soon as possible? But it seems that going to the flames does not conflict with the goal, because Magic Yang means that when there are enough transcripts, he can get shares in the flames movie.
”Oh! Okay, I'll think about it.” Lin Wei walked around the living room with his mobile phone, his face full of contemplation, and Miracle Yang's verbal promise to be the vice president of the production department for two years. Once the performance is promoted to president, the original supervisor has other arrangements ... Or if he is unwilling to be the manager and producer of the production department, he can be a full-time executive producer and directly responsible for the film projects of the Flame Films. Heavy duty.
At the end of the call, Lin Wei still echoed Wang Yang ’s words, “The transformation of Batman ’s Wartime is correct, but Darren Aronofsky let it go too far.” This Harvard alumnus is really awesome Helpless! Lin Wei sat down on the sofa and thought about it. Obviously Miracle Yang was really optimistic about him, otherwise he would not bother to dig a loser to overstep. At the same time, the lack of Chinese film personnel in the management of Flame Movies, Miracle Yang would not want his company or even Hollywood to see When it comes to Chinese faces, they all know the simple truth of how powerful people are.
Of course, if you have the ability and achievements in advance, you have the opportunity to enter the board of directors ... Lin Wei feels that she really needs to think about it.
In the San Francisco Bay Area, the small town of Palo Alto (-) has a beautiful scenery in the midsummer morning. A black car steadily drove from San Francisco and San Mateo.
”N, N ...” Wang Yang, the co-driver in the car, whispered and searched the name in the address book, and then chose to call Lin Yibin, Joshua, who had the steering wheel, and Jessica and Wang in the back seat. Mother didn't speak.
Wang Yang really wanted Lin Wei to join the flame movie, and he really knew that Dan Lin was a capable person.
Lin Wei, 32, is two years younger than Lin Yibin. He was born in Taipei, Taiwan in 1973. He immigrated to the United States with his parents at the age of five. After receiving an undergraduate education at the Wharton School of the University of Pennsylvania, he received Harvard at the age of 26 in 1999. With an MBA (Master of Business Administration) degree from the Business School, during the summer vacation internship program during his MBA study, Lin Wei joined Warner Bros. as a deputy director of the creative department of the production department. He was promoted to senior vice president in 2003 .
In the world of the future film and television information library, Lin Wei turned out to be a smooth ride. He has done a good job in the management affairs of the Warner Production Department, and he is directly involved in projects that are more than ever. The ”Flightman” directed by Martin Scorsese (2004), ”Infernal Affairs” (2006), ”The Ten Thousand Years of Prehistory” (2008) directed by Roland-Emmer Reich, and ”Stickman” (2003) and ”Scooby 2” (2004) ), ”Speeding” (2004), ”Alexander the Great” (2004), ”Uninhibited Christmas Eve” (2006), ”Fatal Visit” (2007) and other films.
By the end of 2007, Lin Wei had left Warner to create the ”Lin-tures” production company, co-produced with Warner, and then cooperated with Warner to distribute. The production project launched by Lins in 2009 There are ”Kistler”, ”Birth of Lies”, ”Detective Sherlock Holmes”, ”Killing Box”, ”Terminator 2018”, ”Sherlock Holmes 2” (2011), ”Gangster Legend” (2012), etc. Lin Wei was also named one of Hollywood's top 10 most promising producers by Variety Weekly (ety) in 2008.
However, due to the butterfly effect, there have been many changes. With ”Mr. Hughes” without ”Flying Home”, Lin Wei after his promotion was not supported by the Aurangska Award, so he was based on two other blockbusters ”Alexander the Great” and The successive failures of Batman ’s Battle Moments have wiped out his previous labor.
But Wang Yang knows that Lin Wei ’s taste and sensitivity to the film are all exciting levels. ”Detective Sherlock Holmes” fully demonstrates its ability to produce and market; of course, no one is perfect, and he ca n’t stop it like ”Alexander. Great work like ”Emperor”. Now Sandy Parks, the director of the Flame Film Production Department for many years, has sufficient management and operation skills, but lacks pioneering power and eyes. If the downcast Lin Wei joins the flame to fill the gap, it can bring a lot of positive effects. He has eyes and experience. Dazzling and courageous, only 32 years old, not just limited to the production department, Flame Group likes such talents.
Lin Wei and Susan Downey have a good relationship. He has called Susan who is currently in Rokko to call him to express his invitation to Lin Wei. Although Susan Downey has not signed a long-term contract with Flame Movies, he is One of the important executive producers with a happy cooperation, and will also participate in the affairs of ”Green Hornet” and other projects after childbirth.
”Hi! Good morning, Justin.” Wang Yang smiled and said hello to the connected end, he was not afraid that the Warner brothers knew that the flame was digging the wall. Anyway, Allen-F-Horn had a set of ”Which is lighter weight”. He hopes that Flame and Hollywood will have more Chinese power, so that they can gradually change something. Without a cardinal support, everything is empty talk. What is worth looking forward to is that ”Magic Yang” has inspired thousands of Chinese-American children all over the world to dare to embark on the path of seeking movies. I believe that in a decade or two, there will be a new look.
The car was moving forward, Jessica and Mama Wang whispered, Joshua asked Wang Yang a few words of traffic quickly, and Lin Yaobin's voice also came from the phone: ”Hi, Yang, good morning.”
Wang Yang looked at the town in front of him, gestured to Joshua to move forward, and sincerely talked about the matter on the tone of the phone: ”Justin, maybe you know that I took Batman, now many people say I am ready to invite You directed ”The Dark Knight”, but I actually didn't have this plan. ”
He was not afraid that Warner knew that instead of Justin Lin, he used Christopher Nolan. What Warner wanted was “Magic Yang”. Of course, confidentiality can save a lot of trouble, but it is only a few days now. Due to Warner ’s publicity and water test, In the atmosphere created by the media fans, it seems that Justin Lin's directing of ”TDK” is already a thing of the past. No matter whether it is a friend or a partner, he does not want Lin Yibin to have some unnecessary joy and expectation and then lose.
