After seven nights, I talked with Kevin Feige again about the promotion of "The Incredible Hulk".
It has to be said that although Ang Lee's "The Hulk" was not very successful, it at least promoted the character of Hulk to the public.
This makes the character of Hulk much more well-known outside the circle than Tony Stark, whose popularity is almost zero.
This undoubtedly saves a lot of publicity and promotion costs, which is undoubtedly a good thing for Marvel and Washimine.
Neither Marvel nor Washimine had very high expectations for the movie "The Incredible Hulk".
Unlike those large commercial films that have to make huge profits, the bottom line for "The Incredible Hulk" is that the box office performance is good enough.
Anyway, Washimine and Marvel have already given all the profits from theaters to Universal, so the box office figures are just for show.
What they need is for the movie to use box office numbers to attract audiences to spend money on movie-related products and bring profits to their producers.
What Marvel and Washimine care about is never the gains or losses of a movie, but the layout of the entire universe.
The character of Hulk is very outstanding when he becomes a guest role because of the huge contrast in his roles.
But if Hulk is made the protagonist of a movie, the content of the movie will not become particularly interesting, and may even be a bit depressing.
Therefore, the most suitable position for the role of Green Fat is the golden supporting role, rather than being the lead singer.
"Almost there, Kevin."
Just as Nanaya was chatting with Feige, Luvia came over.
She was there to remind Feige that he was going to give a speech.
"Okay, I understand."
Feige nodded, then he straightened his clothes and walked onto the booth.
What Feige brought to fans was naturally information about "The Incredible Hulk".
This superhero filmmaker with an impressive hairline is not as popular as he will be in the future, but he has gradually become known to the audience.
Therefore, when Feige appeared on the stage, the core Marvel fans in the audience immediately gave him warm applause.
Nanaya chuckled and said, "Haha, Kevin has become popular too."
"Isn't this how you just stood backstage and commented on me with Kevin?"
Luvia said, rolling her eyes.
"Well." Nanaya shrugged, "You seem to have a big prejudice against me."
"Who made a certain playboy senior kiss and kiss a certain British noble lady in the newspaper?"
Luvia sneered and said, "I heard that you are planning to let that blonde woman be an actress, senior?"
Nanaya heard a hint of resentment in Luvia's answer.
"Are you blaming me for not taking you out to play during the recent movie shoot?"
Nanaya smiled bitterly, "Didn't I ask you to play a role in the "Case Files"? "
Luvia replied, "It was just a cameo, right? And it wasn't your work, senior, right?"
"Ori is your senior, so don't look down on him."
Luvia curled her lips: "Tsk, you are quite protective of your junior brother~ I am almost jealous of men."
"What did you say?"
Nanaya didn't hear clearly what Luvia was mumbling.
"Nothing." Luvia quickly changed the subject, "I was asking you if you have any plans for a sequel to Goblin Slayer. After all, wasn't that movie a big hit?"
"Forget it. I can't think of a follow-up script." Nanaya replied, scratching his head.
It's not that he really wants to do something bad, but Nanaya feels that the later plot of "Goblins Slayer" is becoming increasingly difficult to relate to the main game, so it's better not to film it.
Luvia said a little sadly: "That's a pity. I really miss the days of filming with you, senior."
"Speaking of which, I have a new project recently." Nanaya said, looking at Luvia's figure, "There are many female characters in it. Are you interested?"
Although the "Madoka Magica" project has not yet been officially launched, there is no sign of Urobuchi's script.
But Nanaya has already started preparing actors for the movie, and the selection of actors for the Five Colors Sentai is what Nanaya is most concerned about.
This is the advantage of having the final project in mind; he can scout for roles in advance.
Luvia's character of [long golden hair + big breasts], coupled with her acting skills, is fully capable of handling commercial films.
Nanaya thinks it is quite appropriate to let Luvia play the role of a headless senior.
"Is she the heroine?"
Luvia clapped her hands and asked excitedly.
"No, it's the female... the top five females, right?"
Nanaya doesn't know what category of girl senior Mami is.
The first female character has a mantou-shaped hair, and the second daughter has long black straight hair.
Next, regarding the red, blue, and yellow trio in the Five Colors Team, Nanaya felt that there was not much difference in their role priority positioning.
Nanaya's answer obviously did not satisfy Luvia.
Generally speaking, how many important characters can a movie have?
According to the usual script structure, apart from the leading male and female characters, the roles of other supporting characters will be greatly compressed.
Only Captain Jack in "Pirates of the Caribbean" has such unparalleled charm that he can overshadow the two protagonists as the second male lead.
But such individual examples cannot represent the whole, not to mention that my senior was talking about the top five.
Luvia felt that the role the senior was talking about was probably not much different from Maiya's role in FZ.
This made Luvia even more dissatisfied, as she felt that Nanaya was just being perfunctory.
"I say, Senior." Luvia said angrily, "If you want to ask me to make a guest appearance, you can just tell me directly. Are you just trying to have fun by beating around the bush like this?"
"Of course not."
Nanaya quickly explained: "This movie is basically a story dominated by female characters. The male characters with the most screen time are just supporting roles of supporting roles."
"Oh?"
Nanaya's words sparked some interest in Luvia.
"This story is about five girls as the protagonists, and the other characters appear as marginal figures."
"You want me to play one of those five girls?"
"Yes, there is a role for a blonde senior, an elegant young lady, who I think would be a good match for you."
When asking someone to do something for you, you naturally say good things.
Nanaya chose to conceal the fact that Mami turned around at the beginning, and then couldn't bear the stimulation and shot herself.
[This is not called deception, this is called selective silence. ]
This is Half Chapters Nanaya's beastly self-consolation.
"If that's the case... it's not bad, but you won't just look for the girls around you, right?"
When Luvia thought about the fact that there were five main characters, she became quite suspicious.
Would this senior of mine call all his harem over to film the movie?
Thinking of this, Luvia looked at Nanaya with a strange look.
"What's that look in your eyes? I..."
Nanaya was still thinking about making a few more rebuttals, but Kevin had already stepped down.
"It's your turn, Nanaya."
"OK."
As Nanaya walked towards the booth, he turned back to Luvia and said, "Anyway, if you're interested, you can contact me. After all, you still have Iron Man 2 to schedule, and I'll need to plan the filming schedule by then."
"I understand." Luvia waved her hand, "Senior, please be careful when you go on stage. Don't be nervous."
"What era was that? Do you think I won't make any progress?"
Nanaya retorted, then walked up to the booth after being introduced by the host.
This release of Washimine Entertainment was jointly held by [Erque Studio] and Marvel.
The first half of Marvel's show introduced the MCU movies, and the second half of Nanaya's show naturally introduced the works of [Erque].
"Good afternoon, everyone."
Nanaya waved to the people below.
Although director Nanaya rarely participates in promotional activities, as the founder of the Fate series and the leading actor of FZ, he naturally has a large number of fans.
So when Nanaya came on stage, the applause and cheers from the audience were no less than when RDJ came on stage.
Nanaya was of course happy that fans liked him, but what made him a little depressed was that fans actually made their own [Half Chapters Nanaya] signs, and more than one.
[Just wait for Madoka Magica to be released and see who dares to call me a half-chapter.]
While screaming wildly in his heart, Nanaya gave an awkward but polite smile.
After the audience's voices died down, Nanaya picked up the microphone again and continued his speech.
"I know exactly what you are expecting, so I won't go into detail."
Nanaya pointed his hand directly backwards and said, "Please enjoy this preview I prepared specially for you."
After hearing this, the thousands of people gathered below the booth gradually quieted down, and the reporters obediently put away their filming equipment as requested by the staff.
The lights in the conference hall suddenly went dark, and the first preview of the lower part of FZ was unveiled amid everyone's anticipation.
This trailer has a lot more content than the preview that follows the upper part of FZ.
The scene is no longer just a battle with Caster on the river.
The duel between Artoria and Diarmuid, the one-on-one duel between Emiya Kiritsugu and Father Mapo, and the Emperor leading thousands of troops to attack Gilgamesh.
With Nanaya's superb editing skills, this trailer not only contains a lot of information, but also the various shots in it are dazzling.
The audience cheered at almost every shot.
The last shot of the trailer shows Kiritsugu Emiya's tearful face. He slowly raises his pistol and pulls the trigger while enduring great pain.
Then the screen went black, with only the sound of a gunshot echoing in the audience's ears.
Just when everyone was wondering who Kiritsugu Emiya was shooting at, the title of the movie slowly appeared on the screen - Fate Zero: Inferno.
Next came the film's release date - Spring 2008.
The appearance of this trailer made all the audience cheer. They were amazed by the wonderful trailer, but at the same time, it also caused many questions for them.
But judging from the completion of the current trailer and the release date of the film, this film will obviously not be too far away from them.
Then Nanaya answered questions from fans and reporters about FZ's lower part, Inferno.
Among them, Nanaya stated directly that the subtitle of the movie came from the incident that ended FZ and started the FSN story.
This is a fact that everyone is aware of. After all, the ending of FZ has already been mentioned in the FSN article.
When the press conference was almost over, Nanaya suddenly raised a finger to express his opinion.
"Then finally, there is One more ting."
Everyone's appetite was whetted, and the big screen lit up again.
But this time, just a black screen appeared, and just when the fans were confused.
The words [Madoka] written in pink round letters appeared on the screen, followed by the slogan [Come Soon], and then the short video ended.
All the fans were confused by Nanaya's brazen move, and they had only one reaction in their minds -
That's it???!!!!!
