The beginning of the movie about Diana Prince's childhood is not much information. The growth process of Wonder Woman in childhood was rigorously trained, an introduction to Paradise Island, and the long-legged female warriors everywhere on Paradise Island.

The amount of information is not dense at all, but the relatively reasonable arrangement and story rhythm do not make the audience feel bored. As the beginning of a commercial masterpiece, this is enough.

In fact, what this film tells about is the origin of the Wonder Woman Diana Prince. The previous one is of course explaining her life experience and growing up as the theme.

If Diana Prince wants to leave this uncontested paradise island, then a sufficient reason must appear. The Chacha War, a war suspected to be led by the evil god of war Ares, is the most perfect reason.

Diana Prince rescued Steve in the sea, followed by a beach battle between Amazon Female and pursuers.

When modern thermal weapons collide with primitive wild cold weapons, what is presented to the audience is the first emotional nest in the movie.

Movies are actually a storytelling process. When there is a certain foundation, a collision must be arranged reasonably. In exchange, the cinema is the cry of fans in the cinema, and this beach battle is the turning point for Diana to leave Paradise Island.

Next, Diana Prince took away the magic sword and other equipment, said goodbye to his mother by the sea, and followed Steve on a boat to the outside world.

The ever-evolving plot sometimes causes a chuckle in the theater and sometimes a chuckle. This superhero on the big screen, who seemed to be a child, unknowingly attracted the attention of all the audience. At least the chatting sounds of movie fans in the theater are almost inaudible.

"I'm very suspicious now that this is a movie made by Wayne Green?"

Michael Bay, who was sitting in the middle, turned his head and looked at his partner next to him and said, "From the beginning of the movie, I felt very different. I just realized that f**k, this "Wonder Woman" has not been able to find the dark style of Greenber format!

Magical and beautiful scenery shots, background music that burns when the action scenes are staged, and more importantly, from the beginning of the movie, you can actually find humorous elements everywhere in the movie! If you are a hardcore Wayne fan, you will definitely open your mouth in surprise at this time.

No one doesn't admit that Wayne Greenberg is a genius, a genius among geniuses. But as long as he is still an individual, he cannot be omniscient and omnipotent.

From Wayne's early "Escape from the Joker", to "The Joker", to "Batman: The Dark Knight", which made him destined to be a film history, when it comes to these great films, most people will naturally give thumbs up and give various praises.

But there is only one thing that Wayne's hardcore movie is well known, that is, in his works, you can find the test of human nature, bloody, explicit large-scale shots, quick empathetic stories, and even top-level spatial layout and color information transmission. The only thing is that you can never find any funny elements, which is incompatible with his style at all.

Moreover, in the early years, many media and critics analyzed that Wayne seemed to deliberately avoid the appearance of humorous and funny elements in his works. The more convincing conclusion is that this super genius in the director is born to be unable to shoot humorous elements.

But no one thinks this is a problem. Even if there are no funny plots in his works, it is still impossible to deny the greatness of these works.

"The exquisite composition successfully demonstrates the courage and tenderness of Wonder Woman. Well, the character's portrayal is pleasing enough."

Hearing Michael Bay's puzzled groan, Jerry Brookheimer's eyes did not leave the big screen, but tilted his head to his partner and said, "You're not wrong. This is not a typical Greenber movie.

I have carefully studied Wayne's movies, and even the movie "Batman: The Dark Knight", I have watched it more than a dozen times. It can be said that from spatial layout to composition habits, he has changed completely. The grand spatial layout of "Batman: The Dark Knight" has brought about an epic opera sense, which has disappeared in such a film.

and..."

Speaking of this, Jerry Brookheimer paused for a few seconds, slowly frowned, looked at Michael Bay beside him, and continued: "Compared to the "Joker" and "Batman" series, there are no obscure plots and religious mappings in this "Wonder Woman". This is probably the biggest change for Wayne. I found that he would rather use more shots to shape the interaction between the male and female protagonists this time!

As for the elements of humor, it is not difficult to guess at all. In order to cater to the mass market, add humor elements to the film, optimize the main storyline, and make it more complicated. With the appropriate background music and emotional fighting scenes, Wayne's compromise for this "Wonder Woman" is huge!"

"For the market? What about Wayne Greenberg's artistic pursuits!?"

Michael Bay turned his head and looked at the movie fans behind him who were concentrating on watching the movies. He found that everyone had a faint smile on his face. This shows that all the changes and compromises made by Wayne Greenberg have achieved the results that should have.

In fact, from Jerry Brookheimer's perspective, Wayne is undoubtedly still making progress. The progress mentioned here is not an improvement in film shooting technology, but an improvement that must have put down his posture but cater to market demand.

Hollywood has never lacked excellent directors at that time, but with an excellent film, the majority of directors who have been living for a lifetime account for.

People always feel sorry for these directors. After all, there are too many people who have made an excellent work and have never been able to show off since then. It is so regrettable.

But Jerry Brookheimer doesn't think so. In his eyes, these directors are not enterprising. Holding on the past, the artistic pursuits that have been outdated, and unwilling to put down their figure and adapt to the rapidly changing market are the main reasons for similar situations.

"I really don't understand. Warner Brothers should have watched this movie a long time ago. Why would he be allowed to do this?" Michael Bay turned his attention to the big screen again.

In fact, he has a very unique understanding of what kind of movies movie fans like to watch, and he has been doing this before.

But this does not mean that Michael Bay does not have the so-called pursuit of film art. He has had enough of the insulting abuse and attacks of film critics, and has also had enough of the ridicule brought by the low professional ratings, so he has been holding back his energy and wants to rely on "Pearl Harbor" to prove to everyone that he can also play art.

In his opinion, Wayne Greenberg's sudden change in the style of the film is a complete compromise. The matter is obvious. Just looking at this "Wonder Woman", at least half of the screened shots, this film not only has no DC flavor, but also does not have the dark style of the Greenber format.

"If the heroine isn't Wonder Woman Diana Prince, this is still a top-notch commercial film."

Having watched an internal preview before, George Lucas explained to his friends around him. "I know your doubts. Wayne brought the "Batman" series to a palace level far beyond the scope of comic-adapted movies. But first it was "The Flash", and then it was "Wonder Woman", as if the traces of DC comics were getting fewer and fewer in his hands."

"That's right."

Steven Spielberg nodded and said with a smile: "Do you think it's because of the good results of "The Flash" that made Wayne fall in love with this style?"

“no!”

Unexpectedly, George Lucas shook his head and refused. He looked at his friend's eyes, stretched out a finger, and pointed it on Steven Spielberg's chest, saying: "Because Wayne is the same type of person, all the changes you have made for the shooting are only one reason, that is, for money."

Seeing that his friend's eyes slowly widened, George Lucas shrugged. "Okay, I'll say it better, for the market and for the love of fans, ok?"

Steven Spielberg nodded silently and turned his eyes to the big screen again.

For the sake of the market, yes, "Wonder Woman" will have a concise storyline, with humor elements that Wayne is not good at, and even chooses a large number of long-legged beauties, as well as those emotionally ignited background music and fighting scenes, which are actually to cater to the public's tastes.

During the film screening, Wayne would turn his head from time to time and observe the reactions of more than 2,000 viewers behind him in the dark with the light of the projector.

Overall, he has concluded so far from the reactions of movie fans that Wonder Woman is a good answer.

After the post-production of this movie was completely completed, Warner Bros.'s internal executives and a large number of film-watching experts had already watched the film as soon as possible. The film was quite different from Wayne's previous DC works, and anyone who had watched the film in advance discovered this.

But why, Warner Bros. executives and those film-watching experts gave this Wonder Woman high scores and even turned a blind eye to the missing DC elements in the film?

It can only be said that Warner Bros. executives and film-watching experts are both rational and realistic. Undoubtedly, everyone has more or less thought that Wayne arranged this movie like this because he chose the safest narrative method for "Wonder Woman".

In fact, some executives and film viewing experts have put forward opinions during the preview. Their most unified evaluation is that "Wonder Woman", which is the most suitable for the general public taste among all Wayne's past works. At least, if you don't have a brain to watch the film, there will be no time when people have a "black question mark face".

"Aren't you afraid that your hardcore fans will be dissatisfied?"

Naomi Watts was enjoying watching it, and one thing Wayne said was right, that was this film. If you put aside her little disgust for Angelina Jolie and watch it from an audience's perspective, it really suits her taste.

However, when she saw Diana Prince charging in the battlefield, holding a shield in hand, holding a rain of bullets, she still couldn't help but turn her head and look at the man beside her and joked:

"Don't tell me, those enemies on the battlefield deliberately aimed at Diana's shield before shooting! Dog shit, why didn't they hit that b***h thigh? Do they also like to watch their long legs? It's a pity if they are afraid that they will break it?"

"Nami, don't say you don't understand the filming rules of the movie." Wayne curled his lips helplessly and glared at the Australian girl beside him.

That's right, the armor Diana Prince was wearing didn't cover her big white legs at all, but those bullets and other things ignored them directly and only played shields.

However, such simple and logical bugs are everywhere in every movie, which completely falls into the category of unspoken filming rules. Not to mention the current "Wonder Woman" is like this, in a few years, the same will be true for Captain America.

There are many similar unspoken rules, so movie fans naturally won’t beg for the sake of this.

For example, in normal commercial movies, you will never see any scenes of children being injured in blood. In action and science fiction movies, there will never be any background passers-by. A large number of scenes of being killed by injuries will only give a damage and death number through indirect attacks.

For example, the bullet will never kill the protagonist, but it is enough to play a supporting role...

Especially in superhero movies or monster movies, the protagonists and villains often have super strong force. Will they not affect passers-by when they fight?

If a building collapses or something like that, you will only see the number of casualties afterwards, or the director simply ignores this statement. Normally, there are no movie fans who watch movies to compete with these things harshly.

"I didn't expect you to make such a big style change suddenly."

Naomi Watts put away his jokey face, looked at the man beside him seriously, and sighed: "For the market? Are you really not afraid of your hardcore movie fans swearing?"

"There will definitely be some different sounds, but DC comics are adapted into movies, after all, not DC comics."

Wayne shook his head gently and explained: "Nami, comic fans may not even be able to account for one-twentieth of the movie audience. I am responsible for the 200 million US dollars invested by Warner Bros. It is impossible to make the film obscure in order to deliberately please comic fans."

Speaking of this, he pondered for a moment and continued, "Also, I concluded that the special effects and compact rhythm of the movie will be the major trend in the future, and this will become more and more obvious."

“Big Trend?”

"That's right."

Wayne nodded, without further explanation, but signaled the Australian girl to finish watching the movie first, so that she could go home and chat slowly.

I'm afraid that all the filmmakers of this era will not imagine the changes that streaming media will bring in the future. Take Wayne as an example. He still remembers very clearly that although most of his friends around him in his previous life were mainly engaged in the film and television industry, they were becoming more and more impatient to sit down and watch a movie.

Even many of the young people are impatient to listen to a song in full! People are pursuing fast pace, and even don’t want the previous chorus, just listen to the high nest part.

This is an inevitable product of social changes, and it is also an inevitable change brought by streaming media, the Internet, videos, and too fast information imports, and no one can stop it. In fact, let alone watching a movie patiently, many people have no patience to sit down and pick up a book to read.

In this context, the pace of the movie is getting faster and faster, otherwise it will only be eliminated by the times. Chacha Wayne understands more clearly that in today's relatively slow-paced era, if a movie can simplify the main line, maximize the special effects, and compact the rhythm, the blessing of its success rate can be a bug.

After all, ordinary people in this era have not been brainwashed by the fast-paced information explosion, right?
