Chapter 500 I saw aliens


Chapter 500 I saw aliens

The filming day in the UK ended, and assistant director Anne Burton led a group of people to Paris, Rome, Berlin and other cities to shoot some exterior scenes.

Although Gilbert Jr. had previously said that he would integrate the characteristics of world-famous cities into the city of Gotham, the main body of Gotham is still Chicago, the nation's famous crime capital.

In order to attract Little Gilbert's crew to Chicago for filming, the Chicago city government spent a lot of effort.

Not only did he promise various preferential terms, but when he learned that little Gilbert needed a few blocks to shoot the car chase scene, he immediately asked little Gilbert to pick a few blocks.

Thanks to help from the city of Chicago, the younger Gilbert was able to film a car chase scene on Chicago's main thoroughfare, Walker Street.

The expensive IMAX camera has been moved to the helicopter, and little Gilbert got on the helicopter and directed the scene from the air.

It's night now, and the streets have been cordoned off to ensure there are no intruders from outside vehicles.

The stunt director is communicating with the stuntmen on how to route the lines, where to hit, how to ensure safety, etc., everything is detailed.

Little Gilbert said through the intercom: "Be careful, don't let passers-by intrude on the road, otherwise it will be dangerous."

"Received from the director..."

The road has been completely blocked, and the crew will start filming immediately. Although the crew checked carefully and set up barriers, it was inevitable that some fish would slip through the net.

James White is one of them. He just had a hot dance with a hot girl, drank a lot of wine, and then fought with the hot girl for three hundred rounds in the back alley of the bar.

It wasn't until the opponent was overwhelmed and began to beg for mercy that James White, drunk, walked out of the alley with a bottle of wine, crossed a street, and returned home from the nearest Walker Street.

Because he was drunk, James White was not very clear-headed at this time, and the fierce battle just now made him feel a little empty, so he did not notice that the surrounding streets were eerily quiet.

By the time James White reacted, he had already reached the main street of Walker Street.

James White was a little confused when he saw that Walker Street, which was usually busy with traffic, was now empty and not a single car was passing by.

It's like Chicago gangsters blocking the road in some remote neighborhood, but the gangsters are not there either!
"Zombie siege? Plague? Or aliens attacking the earth?" James White is a lover of Hollywood blockbusters, and all kinds of strange ideas came to him for a while.

While he was thinking wildly, James White suddenly saw someone waving to him across the road.

James White was still confused and quickly shouted and asked: "Man, what's wrong?"

I saw the man on the other side shouting: "Leave quickly, it's dangerous there."

James White heard what seemed to be a roar in the distance, half-awakened, and rolled and crawled away to the roadside. And the roaring sound was getting closer and closer, and there were helicopters flying in the sky, with lights shining on the intersection.

James White turned to look at the corner of the street and saw a black, weird-looking, powerful car, as if it were a beast made by alien technology, speeding past at a speed of 100 kilometers per hour.

Followed by more than a dozen police cars, they were chasing this beast-like car.

But in front of this beast, those police cars were like pussies, weak and vulnerable.

The chasing traffic sped past James White and disappeared around the next corner, but the loud roar of the engine could still be heard.

James White opened his mouth wide and couldn't believe this scene, and his brain shut down on the spot.

"God, what did I just see?" James White thought he saw the police chasing an alien tank.

In Chicago, the crime capital, police arrest criminals and car chases often take place. As a Chicago native, James White is used to it.

But the scene just now is still unforgettable for James White. He can remember this scene for a long time.

After reacting, James White quickly called the local TV station in Chicago: "Hey, I have big news, how much will you pay?"

After the other party answered, James White said: "I saw the police chasing alien creatures, yes, yes, right on Walker Street..."

This car chase scene was very exciting. The crew made a lot of preparations before filming and it was able to pass perfectly.

Little Gilbert watched the whole process from the helicopter and was very satisfied with the content of the filming. He announced that the crew was done with the work and at the same time asked the cleaning company to come in to clean the messy scene left behind by the filming.

When the helicopter landed, Chicago city officials and local media reporters who had been waiting there immediately came to greet them.

Chicago city officials took a group photo with little Gilbert, making a political show, after which little Gilbert simply accepted an interview with the media.

When talking about why he came to Chicago to make a movie, Gilbert Jr. certainly had two good words to say.

"Chicago is a very charming city with a unique temperament that other cities do not have. I think this temperament will take the performance of the movie to a higher level, so I came to Chicago to shoot the movie."

Gilbert Jr. added: "In addition, I have a very good relationship with Mr. Roger Ebert. After he heard that I was filming the "Batman" movie, he strongly invited me to come to Chicago."

It's not difficult for little Gilbert to say a few nice words to his number one fan, it's just something that goes smoothly.

It was Roger Ebert who campaigned for Little Gilbert among the film critics over the years, which gave Little Gilbert such a good reputation among the film critics.

This also indirectly helped Gilbert Jr. win the Oscar for Best Director twice, maintaining his reputation as both commercial and artistic.

Of course, today, film critics, an appendage that relies on the Hollywood film industry, have gradually declined and are no longer as glorious as they were in the 1990s.

In the 1990s, a top film critic could influence the movie-watching choices of millions of people. But today’s audiences no longer listen to the deceptions of film critics.

Perhaps the only role of film critics these days is to create some noise during awards season. Although he said this, little Gilbert still said a few kind words to Roger Ebert and did not ignore him, which made Roger Ebert feel respected.

Today's young directors don't take them seriously. Little Gilbert can't be polite.

After the simple interview, Little Gilbert planned to go back to the hotel to rest. At this time, a reporter asked again: "Director Little Gilbert, we just received news from the Chicago TV station that someone saw an alien on Walker Street. ?”

Little Gilbert was stunned for a moment, then realized and smiled: "Maybe he was drunk and admitted his mistake, that's our new version of the Batmobile.

This shows that the Batmobile is indeed unique, as if it is made of alien technology. "

The filming of "Beginners" went very smoothly. The main actors are all senior actors in Hollywood, and there are basically no problems with their acting skills.

The biggest challenge in this film is Christian Bale's action scenes. Although a stand-in with a similar size to Christian Bale can be used to complete difficult action scenes, Gilbert Jr. still hopes that the actor will complete most of it himself.

Christian Bale is also very dedicated, and he even performed some car chase scenes himself.

In his own words, why would Batman let a stunt double drive?
If most of the shots the audience sees are stand-ins, what do you want him to do? The audience can just look at the stand-in.

Although his words make sense, he really can't do the difficult action scenes, and he has to be a stuntman.

In addition to action scenes, in terms of literary dramas, after getting to know Batman and Bruce Wayne in depth, Christian Bale performed quite well.

Perhaps the most attractive aspect of the film is how Batman builds his equipment, so Christian Bale and Morgan Freeman have quite a few scenes opposite each other.

"Environmental protection projects, protection projects, and consumer products are all just prototypes that have been officially put into production..."

"No?"

Lucius Fox took off his glasses and asked Bruce Wayne: "What did they tell you? What does this place do?"

"Tell me nothing."

Lucius Fox said oh, and while turning on the light, he said: "Earl made it very clear when he transferred me, prison.

To prevent me from causing trouble to the company, come on! "

"Ka!" Little Gilbert shouted, walked up to the two actors and said, "The details are good, but Lucius, try to appear calmer.

What you said in your lines just now sounded a bit like resentment.

Bruce, when Lucius is talking, you need to give some feedback and exaggerate your facial expressions. "

Christian Bale asked: "When Lucius says this is a prison, do I have to have a clear look on my face?"

"Yes, yes, that's right." Little Gilbert clapped his hands and said, "Let's do it again..."

I passed it easily this time, and the performance details had a better sense of hierarchy. A scene that does not require tension and explosive power is a point that is easily overlooked.

Little Gilbert didn't want such a scene to be too disconnected from other scenes, so the actors needed to stay in shape and perform better and better.

What follows is a scene in an underground warehouse, where Bruce Wayne learns about Lucius Fox's personality, including his father.

Then he got equipment for Bruce Wayne, just like a treasure hunt, and introduced all the useful things to Bruce Wayne.

"Infantry advance team's Nomex fire-resistant jacket, Kevlar double-sided reinforced patchwork." Lucius Fox also knocked twice, as if to introduce his child.

"Is it resistant to pulling?"

"This thing can't even be cut with a knife."

"Bulletproof?"

"It can protect against ordinary bullets."

"Why not put it into production?"

Lucius Fox once said a cruel joke: "The bookkeepers don't think a soldier's life is worth three hundred thousand dollars."

Lucius Fox put his things away and asked Bruce Wayne: "So, why are you interested? Mr. Wayne?"

Bruce Wayne makes a random excuse: "I want to borrow it for... uh, spelunking."

"Cave exploration?"

"Yes, that's right."

"Could you encounter a gunfight in the cave?"

This dialogue is very humorous, and this is also the humorous part set up in the script for the film. Although it is a serious Batman movie, Gilbert Jr. does not want the audience to watch the movie with a sullen face.

Occasionally, I will laugh at the humor reflected in the dialogues between the characters in the play, which can be considered a very successful plot setting.

The two actors performed perfectly, except for a few scenes, the rest was seamless.
