In recent years, with the development of digital technology, in movies with many special effects, the speed is slower in almost any place where special effects are displayed. I am afraid that the audience will not see the exquisiteness of the model, the details of the texture, and the power of ray tracing rendering. , but it often appears fake when it is slow, which is the consequence of showing off skills.

Murphy sometimes wonders whether this is the director's problem or the special effects company's problem. The special effects company will show off their skills in order to show off their skills. If you are a director, you should always be aware that technology is a means of telling stories, and special effects play the biggest role , is used to complete the ideal shot in the mind of a director.

If a director wants to show off his skills, he should shoot commercials.

"David, turn the light thirty degrees to the left and dim it a bit."

In the studio, Murphy observed the brightness of the shooting scene through the camera lens, and when David Robbie adjusted to a suitable angle, he immediately said loudly, "Okay! Keep the current effect, the actors are ready, and the shooting will start in five minutes."

When the time came, the shooting started again, and Nicolas Cage, with a shiny bald head, first appeared in front of the camera.

"Who am I? I'm the one who will end you!" In front of the green screen, he looked at Chris Evans in a Superman uniform, "I'm Lex Luthor, a billionaire! Business tycoon! Philanthropist !inventor!"

His expression was a little crazy, as if he was crazy, "The smartest person on this planet!"

Chris Evans crossed his arms and looked at him, "You lost!"

"Do you think I will pin the hopes of mankind on a machine?" Nicolas Cage became even more crazy, he raised his finger and shook, "No!"

There was no movement on the other side, and Chris Evans still had that look on his face.

"Don't look at me like that." Nicolas Cage suddenly returned to his normal appearance, shrugged, "I won't put human's hope on you..."

Pointing to Chris Evans, he exclaimed, "On an alien monster!"

"You don't belong to this world!" This scene is completely belonged to the moment of Nicolas Cage's performance, "You are here, and you are the greatest threat to the earth! Your existence weakens the potential of human beings!"

During the filming, Nicolas Cage's performance was extremely unstable, always good and bad, and then broke out again.

Now is undoubtedly the moment for his acting skills to explode, "Human beings are the greatest existence in this world, as long as human beings can evolve again..."

He suddenly turned his head and pointed back, "I have already found the password for human beings to re-enter through the key sent by your world. Human beings need faith, but they don't want the god of faith to show up!"

Nicolas Cage turned around and walked to the main camera, and said loudly, "Since the Kryptonians can't kill the Kryptonians, let the evolved humans do it for them!"

"The most perfect genetic combination." Nicolas Cage stretched out his arms, like a devout believer welcoming the coming of the true God in his heart, and raised his head and said, "I was born to destroy monsters like you on the earth!"

He turned to Chris Evans and said, "Judgment Day for you and all monsters!"

"Stop! This one is over." Murphy left behind the camera and said to the assistant who followed, "Transition, the next scene will be filmed in thirty minutes."

The shooting of the scenes in the studio was quite tight, and the crew quickly moved to another studio next to it, which had already been set up as a high command headquarters of the US military.

Thirty minutes had just passed, and after Murphy nodded, a director put the marker in front of the camera lens, "Scene 123, Act 55, now begins."

The command room is full of people, and the focus is on two generals, looking at a green screen that replaces the display screen, arguing about whether to launch an attack.

"Mr. President." One of the brown-haired middle-aged actors said to a communicator, "The target has now left the metropolis and is flying into space. I suggest launching a nuclear bomb immediately!"

"There is Superman among the targets!" The black general obviously held the opposite opinion,

"Superman is on our side!"

The brown-haired general stood up and demanded loudly, "On our side? Would the hundreds of innocent people who died in the town he destroyed think Superman was on our side?"

"That was an accidental injury from the Great War." The black general defended Superman, "If he doesn't take action, there will only be more casualties..."

"He's not human." The brown-haired general said only one sentence.

The intercom played an earlier recording, "God bless America, God bless us all, launch Devil One."

This scene can be called the most enjoyable and cleanest nuclear bomb launch in Hollywood history.

Throughout the history of Hollywood, since the birth of nuclear weapons, there have been countless films related to nuclear bombs, but after watching it, it is not difficult to find that 99% of them, nuclear bombs are just a gimmick to set off the theme and plot of the film , will not be launched at all, and the other 10%, the nuclear bomb may be launched, but the possibility of exploding on the ground is very small.

Whether it’s for villains or protagonists with abilities beyond normal humans, nuclear bombs are similar to the meaning of their existence in the human world. They are more of a deterrent, and Hollywood movies rarely break the bottom line of launching explosions.

But Murphy is different. This "Man of Steel" does not take an unusual path. Just as the plot is only based on comics, most of the content has nothing to do with the comics that have already been born. In some scenes and shots, what he needs It is to break, not to stick to the cage.

According to the setting of the film, it is also the most reasonable for the U.S. military and the federal government to bomb Superman and the villain BOSS with nuclear bombs. Why keep the controlled people and abilities? Wouldn't it be a problem for myself to keep it?

Even Superman, who seems to stand with humans, is the same.

Moreover, the action scenes in the film have broken the so-called "moral bottom line" of Hollywood action films. In another action scene before the final battle, the battle between Superman and another villain did protect many human beings, but both The destructive power is too amazing, accidental injury is inevitable.

From this perspective, it is not completely incomprehensible for the government and the US military to deal with Superman.

This is also one of the themes that Murphy wants to reflect. Whether it is an ordinary person or a super-capable hero, there are two sides, and the source of the troubled Superman and the panic that Superman brings to this society comes from his ability.

Similar questions cannot be answered by the simple "greater ability comes with greater responsibility".

In "Man of Steel", it is not the big BOSS who is the villain, but ordinary human beings who bring the biggest confusion to Superman.

Soon it was noon, and the filming ended temporarily. Most of the crew chose to eat in an Italian restaurant near the Warner Studios. Since Murphy still had work to do, he would not be able to come out until later. Gal Gadot was in the restaurant Sit at a table with Chris Evans and Nicolas Cage.

The three leading actors chatted while eating, and the topic was naturally inseparable from the movie being filmed now.

"Have you noticed that Murphy is very biased?" Chris Evans complained jokingly, "Superman will be troubled by many troubles, but Wonder Woman is determined and doesn't have so many messy problems around her."

Gal Gadot shrugged, but said nothing.

Nicolas Cage instead said, "It's because Wonder Woman is just a cameo in this movie, and Superman is the absolute protagonist."

"I just don't think it's fair." Chris Evans shook his head and looked at Gal Gadot. "Gal just needs to show the most beautiful side, and I also need to study the psychology of Superman..."

"It's not me who is really beautiful." Gal Gadot said casually.

Chris Evans and Nicolas Cage laughed at the same time. Although they have different personalities and actually don't have much intersection except work, when it comes to these, men always have the same opinion.

The little fox in the crew has been peeping at them for a long time, but it's a pity that they feel even more itchy when they can't eat it.

Megan Fox is very out of gregarious, probably because he has learned enough experience from the "Transformers" crew. He neither gets close to the director Murphy, but also keeps a certain distance from other leading actors. Gal Gadot, who is a beautiful girl, she rarely pays attention to.

"Let's not talk about her..." The topic returned to the movie, Chris Evans said again, "Didn't you find out? In fact, Wonder Woman has another big difference from Superman."

Gal Gadot and Nicolas Cage looked at him, waiting for Chris Evans to speak for himself.

Sure enough, Chris Evans said afterwards, "Wonder Woman doesn't have an enemy who can be called an old enemy."

He continued, “We all know that Superman’s nemesis is Lex Luthor, Batman’s nemesis is the Joker, Captain America’s nemesis is the Red Skull, Spider-Man’s nemesis is the Green Goblin, Doctor Octopus, Venom, etc. But as Not one of the greatest and most famous heroines in the American comic book industry, Wonder Woman’s nominal enemy is still the leopard girl who has changed for several generations and you can’t remember which one is which.”

"Well, I think so too."

In order to play the role of Wonder Woman well, Gal Gadot read many related comics, “Whether it’s Catwoman, Ares, or Circe, the sense of existence is too weak, while the Silver Swan and Angle Man The villain characters appear too few times, they are simply passer-by characters.”

Chris Evans suddenly looked at Gal Gadot's back and said, "Murphy is here."

While talking, Murphy had already come to Gal Gadot, pulled out a chair and sat down, beckoned to the waiter, ordered some Italian dishes, and asked, "What are you talking about? You guys had a great time talking." .”

"Wonder Woman's old enemy..." Gal Gadot said simply.

After listening to her, Murphy shrugged, "Let me summarize the reason why Wonder Woman has no old enemy."
