《Zack Snyder's Justice League》 - Biography of heroes in the world
Schneider used almost the same style as "the catcher" to complete the early shooting of "justice alliance".
Obviously the film is controversial.
Some people like it very much, such as me. Although I know that this movie has nothing to do with perfection, obviously many slow motion scenes are redundant, and the music is not up to standard. It's like a reference music sample, and I just put it on the table, but it's not the point for me.
The point is that as a creator, you don't need to pay for the film, but you also need to express yourself completely. At the same time, you need to thank the fans who have supported him and voiced for him for the past four years. So on the one hand, of course, there should be persistence in creation, even in the Hollywood system, even in superhero movies. On the other hand, it's obvious that we can't look at this movie with the rhythm of a normal movie. I feel that the movie is customized by fans, and all the materials that can be used are put in.
My love for Schneider is that he and Nolan can join hands to walk out of another way of Marvel movie universe, with one more choice.
It's a pity that Warner is too anxious. The establishment of the movie universe is not only about the style differences, but also about the overall design and rhythm control. So warner has not really understood the core reason for Marvel's success, that is, to make comic artists become filmmakers and the most powerful people, to make movies that satisfy comic fans, and to assist them with blockbusters instead of being self righteous.
Therefore, if DC does not find its own Kevin Fitch in the future, and can not grow up from DC Comics' independent film industry, the film makers who understand comics and love comics will always encounter the dilemma of Warner's strong revision and creation.
From the perspective of Marvel's growth path, DC has been incorporated into Warner's territory prematurely, so it is difficult for DC to grow into a prestigious DC producer who can compete with Warner. Therefore, dceu should not expect too much in the short term, especially after at & T's acquisition of Warner, DC comic films will find a new way out.
For example, a phenomenal movie like "the clown" can make a movie on its own. It's a superhero low-cost art movie with a global revenue of 1 billion US dollars. Who dares to think about this before.
Similarly, how to use Schneider? Maybe he doesn't want to shoot "justice Alliance 2 and 3", but if he gives Schneider less than $80 million to choose a cartoon character and Classic DC cartoon text, and let him play freely, maybe there will be a miracle. After all, it's not reliable to try to imitate MCU. It's a big company disease in blockbusters. I've already paid enough tuition, and I believe Warner must make his own revolution.
For example, DC Comics didn't make much TV series related to the main line of justice alliance before, but now HBO Max, at this opportunity, can we consider making more derivative TV series of justice alliance, similar to the narrative carrier of aegis, which can patch the main sequence and perfect the universe at any time. Disney has also confirmed the model of online streaming media platform and well-known IP derivative TV series. It is estimated that Warner will not miss this opportunity again. Similarly, the TV series track is still OK It presents a variety of styles, which can be tried by different styles and writers.
Of course, DC did make a lot of other hero's TV dramas on Warner's CW channel. I saw the first two seasons of green arrow, but I didn't watch flash, but they were all very popular, including Superman. It's just that these have nothing to do with Schneider and Nolan's dceu universe. On the contrary, TV dramas are getting through with each other. Maybe Warner is more concerned about the media area of movies and TV dramas Don't.
Maybe HBO and Max have different ideas.
DC and marvel both have strong text accumulation, so whether it's a movie or a TV play, the effective experience in this creative direction is to choose a good story text basis, as long as you don't change it so that your mother doesn't recognize it, and leave the rest to the director.
After all, "the catcher" is rare to win the Hugo prize and many pure literature prizes in the form of picture novels. The depth and value of this text thinking surpass too many similar film texts.
Schneider's film "the catcher" is difficult to be surpassed by the film industry, because it stands on the shoulders of giant text. Some people say that Schneider's "the catcher" is just a dynamic cartoon that directly restores the cartoon to the screen, so Schneider is not so aggressive. I can only say that there are too many differences in the understanding of film noumenon and film director's creation. I don't think we should take the time to persuade people with this view. Because it's true that everyone feels very different about movies, but it's still a matter of cognitive threshold whether they understand creation or not. It's just that this matter is not worth wasting time to popularize, which can be understood as different aesthetics.
Because of this, for a stylized director like Schneider, he needs a strong text. For Nolan and Todd Phillips, who have strong ability in original plays, he can create a new story and a new style that doesn't need to be influenced by the original text of comics from the pure characterization as the starting point, or even as the core.
I would like to add that why I personally feel that Schneider is "enduring" these four hours, and why it seems that there are a lot of "controversies" in this film.
Zack Snyder successfully saved this project as well as the future of these DC Superheroes but not without controversies.
