Hollywood Hunter

Chapter 748: Origin (repair)

Overall, the first part of "Suicide Squad" is positioned as an origin movie.

The opening scene of the film Rick Freig, the vengeful demon and the succubus, the crocodile man, the death shooter and the poison ivy who appeared in the "Batman" trilogy, plus two who acted as cannon fodder after a simple background introduction 'Boomerang' and'Slipknot' formed the initial team of the Suicide Squad.

It is easy to control the life and death of a group of criminals. It is not enough to just threaten death by driving a group of vicious criminals to serve oneself.

One of the dark lines of this movie is about the running-in process of the suicide squad, including how Rick Flegg learned to control a group of criminals, the contradictory running-in between the members of the suicide squad, and the potential identity between the core members after fighting side by side, etc. .

The enchantress played by Natasha Kinsky introduces Rick Freig, played by Fang Kimmer, into the team, and contradictions quickly arise.

When Rick Freig realized that he was short of manpower during the last battle with the Vengeful Devil, he basically agreed with Amanda Waller's plan to use super-powered criminals to form a suicide team, and agreed to be the captain. However, when Rick discovered that Amanda Waller was about to introduce the vengeful demon who killed his teammates into the team, there was an immediate backlash.

This plot is interspersed with the background story of the vengeful demon Rafael Sandoval.

Rafael Sandoval is the second-generation revenge demon in DC comics. The opponent was originally an ordinary gang member. He was betrayed by his accomplices in a gun battle with the police. After being imprisoned, he accidentally obtained the revenge demon. Power, because of the unbearable bullying, Rafael Sandoval in prison unexpectedly broke out, burned everyone around him and escaped from the prison, triggering the opening battle of the movie.

After some bargaining, Rick barely accepted the vengeful demon.

Then there are the witches whose hearts are held by Amanda Waller and can only serve as slaves with peace of mind, the crocodile man, the death shooter and the poison ivy who were thrown into the Arkham mental hospital by Batman.

Different from the crocodile man and the death shooter's complete criminal attributes, the Plant Girl saved the entire world in "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises", but did not receive the treatment of a hero. After completing the purification of the poisonous gas released by the clown by burning his own life, Batman sends the Plant Girl who is unable to resist to the Arkham Mental Hospital. It is not a punishment, but he believes that the other party is not suitable for appearing in human society, and promises Will give Poison Ivy some protection.

Before Amanda Waller appeared, the life of Plant Girl in the Arkham Mental Hospital was indeed leisurely. It also shows that Amanda Waller is also an anti-hero in nature.

The subsequent'boomerang' and'slipknot' were slightly weaker superpower criminals captured by humans. One was used by Amanda Waller to get a headshot and the other died in the ensuing battle, basically two cannon fodder. .

The team was set up in the stumbling dispute and was sent directly to the Metropolis to perform the task.

Retake the suspected ‘Mother Box’ target.

The location is in the underground warehouse of a private museum in the metropolis.

Because the information in the mother box is too sensitive, the federal government can only steal it stealthily using this obscure means without absolute evidence.

As for the provider of this information, it was a witch.

The film does not hide the clues that the witch is actually the villain of the movie. From the first meeting between the witch and Rick, Rick noticed something wrong with this woman, and then until the mission started, Rui Ke still doubted the purpose of this trip.

Privately, the succubus also gave the answer directly. The clue she guided Amanda Waller was not the mother box, but the ancient magic box that sealed her master's "Demon Nightmare". The succubus wanted to release her master. When he came out, he didn't have the ability, so he could only pretend to be subservient to Amanda Waller, and for this reason, he sacrificed himself and gave the other side the weakness of his heart.

In the comic setting, the Demon Nightmare is the brother of the witch.

In the process of writing the script, Simon felt that this relationship was a little less convincing, and simply changed it to the master.

The plan was finalized, the team set off, and the "slipknot" who had just gained freedom and wanted to escape was headshot by Amanda Waller. He quickly went to one of the eight. The villains who settled down can only show their magical powers, and soon sneak into private. The underground warehouse of the museum.

The plot here has its first climax.

Catwoman appeared.

Batman accidentally intercepted news about Amanda Waller, and commissioned a catwoman who is good at stealing to come and find out what is happening, and happened to collide with the suicide squad.

Because Catwoman has already appeared in the first "Batman: Hour of War", for preconceived reasons, the Catwoman played by Valerie Galino has been very popular in recent years. Simon signed a three-year contract with the actress. Two film contracts have been used before.

In order to ensure that Catwoman will have a chance to appear in the subsequent heroes assembly process, before the shooting of "Suicide Squad", the DC team negotiated with Valerie Galino, and the two parties signed the other two with a total of 15 million US dollars. Film about.

This is also considered Simon's negligence.

The memory of the Marvel Cinematic Universe’s Black Widow actor, Scarlett Johansson, was able to get the $20 million salary second only to Downey. The problem is that the popularity of Black Widow is too high, and Marvel did not sign with the other party at first. Make a long appointment. The subsequent Marvel movie universe actors did not have such good luck.

Similarly, Simon thought that signing a three-film contract with Valerie Galino would be enough, but he still miscalculated.

Fortunately, the two parties have been cooperating happily. The two films are about 15 million US dollars, which are also within the acceptance range of DC. Valerie Galino also knew her condition, and did not make wild demands. The femininity of cats is indeed very high, but it is not essential, at least the poison ivy played by Nicole Kidman is not much worse than her.

If she is unwilling to renew the contract or make wild demands, she will only have one chance to show her face in the huge DC movie universe series, and she will have to wait until a few years later. Not only that, with Daenerys Entertainment’s strength in Hollywood, once the relationship becomes fragile, she will not even want to obtain other resources in Hollywood in the future, and can basically retire early.

The era when Hollywood big names were coaxed by the studios to be able to dictate to their hearts' content, with the rise of Daenerys Entertainment Group, it is gone forever.

Valerie Galino renewed the contract for two films, and only then did Catwoman appear in "Suicide Squad".

Of course, for a total of more than ten minutes of the scene, Valerie Galino easily took away the highest salary of $5 million in the original contract. Such an easy sum of money, even many first-line actresses can only envy.

In fact, there are generally only three to five film contracts signed with DC film universe actors, which Simon deliberately did. Of course, he can sign more contracts with actors as Marvel remembers, and the pay can also be much lower. He didn't do this at the beginning, the purpose is that Simon hopes that one day the DC Cinema Universe will be unsustainable because the actors are paid too high.

At that time, it is the moment when Marvel will exert its strength.

In traditional Hollywood blockbusters, good guys beat bad guys, and the audience will only substitute themselves for the good guys.

This time, "Suicide Squad" is upside down.

Catwoman is also good and evil in the comics, but after several consecutive collaborations with Batman, Selena Kyle is already one of the superheroes.

As a result, the conflict for the ancient magic box has become a rare scenario on the big screen where a bad guy beats a good guy.

With the overall strength of the suicide squad, if we are united, it is easy to deal with the catwoman alone. However, when the two sides met, except for Rick Flagg who did not hesitate, the other villains who were still dissatisfied with Amanda Waller all showed a more or less stroke gesture.

After all, the super-powered criminal is not like the Chinese cabbage. One is missing and can draw another. As long as there is no obvious betrayal, even if the Plant Ivy is openly flirting with the Catwoman, Amanda Waller did not attack. .

However, after all, two fists are hard to beat four hands, not to mention a pair of sevens. Catwoman failed to take the ancient magic box.

The fighting triggered the alarm system of the private museum. After a chaotic battle, Catwoman and the Suicide Squad both evacuated. During the period, Plant Lady obviously went against Amanda Waller’s will and quietly helped Catwoman and sent each other away. At the same time, she asked Catwoman to bring a message to Batman. She needs an explanation.

The task is finally completed.

The members of the Suicide Squad were temporarily sent back to the Arkham Mental Hospital, and the Ancient Magic Box, which was illusioned by the succubus and showed the appearance of the mother box, was taken to the Suicide Squad headquarters.

Then, the enchantress turned back.

The demon nightmare was released and fled into the metropolis.

The demon nightmare that had just escaped the seal was very weak, and gave Amanda Waller a chance to make up for it and re-mobilized the suicide team to pursue the hunt.

During this operation, the members of the suicide team gradually began to form a certain degree of understanding.

The second cannon fodder ‘boomerang’ was also killed in this operation.

In the end, the witch sacrificed himself as a sacrifice, causing the demon nightmare to regain full blood, and the metropolis was threatened.

The final battle begins.

Facing the demon nightmare that could destroy the entire city, even the revenge demon who was good at manipulating flames could not compete with it, and the main output fell on the poison ivy girl.

Last time I saved the world at the expense of burning her own life, not only was she imprisoned, but now she was also forced to become someone else’s thug. Naturally, the Plant Girl would not easily submit to it. She had a bargain with Amanda Waller and finally decided With all their strength, the remaining crocodile men, death shooters and revenge demons also showed their badass nature and took the opportunity to put forward various conditions.

In the end, justice...oh no, evil triumphed over evil.

Amanda Waller, who has shown her anti-hero essence at the beginning, directly repented of the Poison Ivy promise after everyone got the Demon Nightmare, and asked Rick Flag to bring them all back.

Catwoman reappeared and helped Poison Ivy remove the bomb implanted in her neck. The two left together. Batman also appeared in surprise in the final episode, but it was only a voice that warned Amanda Waller.

The story ends here.

When the subtitles came up, everyone in the Chinese Theater in Hollywood had a feeling of unfulfilled meaning.

Filmmakers think about how to draw inspiration from this another special effects blockbuster.

Media people are wondering how to write tomorrow's report.

The moods of many fans are even more diverse. Some people are impressed by the beauty of the witch, some are shocked by the power of the demon nightmare, some are foreshadowing the various details of the whole movie, and some have a certain relationship between Catwoman and Plant Affectionate and understanding.

At the same time, it is inevitable to regret that the bomb on the neck of the Plant Girl was taken out, which means that Nicole Kidman will no longer appear in the next "Suicide Squad". The sorceress who is also responsible for appearance is also in this movie. Death, lack of two women, who will appear in the next movie?

Considering this, the subtitles go to the end and the screen lights up.

Routine Easter eggs.

Everyone cheered up.

The remaining death shooters, crocodile men, and revenge demons were re-incarcerated in Arkham Mental Hospital, but Amanda Waller fulfilled the promises made by the three but not excessive.

In the adjacent mountain cell, the death shooter's account was lifted, and the money he had made as a killer was set up as his daughter's trust fund. At this time, he was looking contentedly at the letter sent by his daughter. The vengeful demon has a pair of tarot cards in his hand, sitting cross-legged in the cell, seeming to be addicted to it. The crocodile man’s cell is between the two, with a wall-mounted TV installed in it, and a sitcom is playing.

The lens zooms in.

On the TV screen was "Friends" produced by Daenerys Entertainment.

In the daily quarrel between Rachel and Chandler, there was a sudden commotion in the mental hospital, and the sound of gunfire, footsteps, and explosions mixed together, which was extremely lively.

The three of them are all silly, as if everything has nothing to do with them.

The crocodile man looked at the TV screen and suddenly raised his hand and hammered it on the wall a few times, attracting the attention of the other two people, and said with a rough voice: "Hey, dead shot, did you find out? According to the soap opera routine, our team There is actually a pistachio missing."

As soon as the voice fell, a series of mad and sick women laughed suddenly in the entire Arkham Mental Hospital in the still unending commotion.

"Haha...hahaha...hahahahaha..."

In the cell next door, the death shooter moved for a while, then lifted his chin in the direction of the voice: "You mean, like this?"

The picture is dark.

The movie ends completely.

In the screening hall of the Chinese Theater, even viewers who did not know DC comics at all felt terrified because of the last series of women's laughter, and therefore had an inexplicable expectation.

Fans of movies and comics are even more excited.

As soon as this laughter came out, many fans flashed a name: Harley Quinn.

After the summer of "Batman: The Dark Knight Rises", the clown played by Revan Phoenix left a very deep impression on the audience. In this "Suicide Squad", attentive fans also found that Amanda Waller and When Rick Freig recruited members of the suicide squad at Arkham Mental Hospital, a dignified and slender figure had just given psychological counseling to a criminal.

Now, many viewers have reacted to the story of Easter Eggs and comics, that is Harley Quinn.

Not long ago, I regretted that the Plant Girl played by Nicole Kidman could not continue to appear in the sequel. With the emergence of Harley Quinn, many fans’ expectations for the sequel immediately rose to a new level.

The lights come on.

Along with the prolonged applause, the main creators of the film came on stage one after another and began the interactive session.

The first reporter to be called directly asked everyone the most concerned questions: whether the last laugh of the movie easter egg came from Harley Quinn, whether this DC super villain will be the heroine of the next "Suicide Squad", and , Which actress will play the role?

Except for the well-known Harley Quinn, there is obviously no answer.

This is the convention.

Everyone was not disappointed and asked other questions one after another. The 15-minute interactive session was scheduled because the media and the audience were too enthusiastic, and it lasted more than 20 minutes.

When the interactive session ended, the premiere ceremony ended smoothly.

Important guests with invitations can go to a nearby hotel to participate in the after-party party, and most of the audience will return individually. Then, on the Internet platform, a series of news about the premiere of "Suicide Squad" quickly became hot news.
