Chapter 552 Big ambition

The sequel to "The Matrix" was not put on the agenda because the first movie had a good box office and a good reputation. Instead, they were originally a complete story, but the first movie could not accommodate so much content, so they were divided into three movies.

Unlike the first one that received worldwide praise, "The Matrix 2: Reloading" is a trilogy that connects the past and the future, and is also the episode that has caused the most controversy and discussion!

The classic thing about this series of movies is that each movie has found a breakthrough in the audience's opinion that it has reached its peak, and it is reasonable.

In the first part, Trini's kiss reminds Snow White that she usually makes Neo a savior, transforming into Superman in her mother's body to kill all directions; in the second part, Neo starts to block the mechanical octopus with his bare hands in the "real world" and pinch Trini's heart with his hands to make her resurrect. In the third part, Neo's eyes were blinded after failing to kill the boss alone, but after he becomes blind, he can see more things, and he can see the agents who penetrate the "real world" from the mother's body through his skin.

"The Matrix" won $460 million in the box office around the world for $63 million, and won four awards on the Oscars, one of which was the best movie editing known as the Oscar's best film outpost. This was an extremely outstanding result at the time!

The story itself has a very sci-fi entry point. In the future, most people in the world will become bio-cells raised by machines, and will die in the virtual world after being drunk and dreaming.

This creativity allows the audience to think about the reality and illusion of the world they are in. Of course, being extremely dominant is an interesting fantasy that is easy to hit the large hollow stronghold.

The reason why it is well received is that "The Matrix" is also full of plots, climaxes and overwhelming visual effects. The three are combined and the audience feels the ultimate pleasure!

Especially in the second half of the movie, the traitor appears, rescues Morpheus, duels with the agent in the black, and Neo is resurrected. Almost every part maintains a sense of tension and excitement, but the plot progresses very smoothly.

The audience will not be out of the show, and there is no time to think about why such a battle is arranged here. Almost every part has unforgettable visual effects: first-floor gun battle, bullet time, helicopter smashing tall buildings, hovering bullets, mother world coded, etc.

Even for many viewers who don’t understand the philosophical thoughts behind this movie, this is still a 100-point work. For viewers who are willing to expand their brains through this, it is an additional 100 points above 100 points!

...

Lin Han rubbed his hands. Such a classic science fiction movie was to be born in his hands. It would be fake to say that he was not excited.

There are very important scenes in this series of movies. The Wachowski brothers revolutionized the ultra-slow motion and ring shooting of "bullet time", becoming a classic film and television shot!

The exaggerated reproduction of the elastic deformation of objects and the air tailing caused by bullets were first created by the Matrix. The film has a very violent aesthetic and comes from the action guide of Hong Kong. Yuan Heping, who works with the director, works tacitly to combine the splashed slag with the actions of beautiful characters, is simply pleasing to the eye.

This also allowed Keanu Reeves to complete a gorgeous turn from a second-tier Hollywood actor to a super first-tier one. This movie allows him to interpret what handsomeness and coolness meant, and become an idol of the whole world!

The sales of black windbreakers and sunglasses were stimulated by this movie, and the classic Nokia phone has also become a symbol of the trend.

"The Matrix" successfully merged the two concepts of science fiction and action, which were both unrelated, and people could only admire the exquisite conception of

Talking about a thousand words, now "The Matrix" has only a preliminary idea. Not to mention starting filming, even the script has not been written.

The production of a movie is mainly divided into the preparation stage, the shooting stage, and the post-production stage. These three stages take a lot of time!

In the preparation stage, it mainly focuses on the script, whether it is adapted or original.

In Lin Han's head, there are naturally plots of "The Matrix". What he has to do now is to write this script and also plan to write the novel out!

Perhaps many people know that "The Matrix" is an original movie created by the Wachowski brothers, but after the success of the movie, it also developed an official novel, with movies first and novels.

Lin Han knew that this was a very good ip. He tasted the benefits of linking novels and movies, so he wanted to bring out the novels together!

The novel "The Matrix" is very huge. The content of the first part is equivalent to an introduction. It has been modified and added and deleted according to the plot of the movie. The second and third part are much larger. With Neo's dream as a trigger, seven or eight interspersed timelines and the main storyline are intertwined.

Neo in the novel is much better than in the movie, and it also describes in detail the growth process of Morpheus and the other captains’ hearts and the ways of destruction of five different worlds, and even detailed descriptions of the area of ​​Zion.

But since this is a domestic science fiction film, the background in the movie needs to be modified, and the protagonist's name and surrounding environment must be in line with the domestic situation.

Now sitting in the office, he has no way to write novels, so he simply goes to the registration of the National Copyright Administration to fill out various forms, register the story first, so as not to leak the story or be stolen by others in the future, and there are traces of lawsuits to follow.

Lin Han had already had a premonition that his preparation time would last for a long time because he wanted to make all the scripts of the "Matrix" trilogy in one go and write the novel out. This is a big project!

The reason why he said that he needed hundreds of millions of dollars to shoot this movie was that he had an extremely ambition. He wanted to shoot the "The Matrix" trilogy in one go, just like the original "Lord of the Rings".

There is a very common word for shooting a series of movies, that is, "set shooting". To put it bluntly, it is to shoot in a concentrated manner and then release in episodes.

This word comes from the production mode of Peter Jackson's shooting of "Lord of the Rings". When "Lord of the Rings: The Rings Messenger" was released, the subsequent "Twin Towers" and "Return of the King" had been filmed, and there was only a few post-production work, such as special effects processing and editing sound effects.

This not only increases the coherence of the story itself, but also reduces the cost.

You should know that a large part of the cost of "The Matrix 2" comes from the surge in actors' pay. Keanu Reeves and others' value doubled after the success of "The Matrix"!

If you use the set-up mode, then there will be no actors asking for price increases. They seem to be just making a movie.

This is a bit like the shooting mode of a TV series. The script is shot in one breath and then divided into dozens of episodes to broadcast.
Chapter completed!
