福斯扩展超级英雄版图 非凡特工队将搬上银幕   时光网讯 在超级英雄电影占据全球电影市场主流的今日,各大电影公司对超级英雄故事愈加渴求。在下周日开幕的圣迭戈动漫展上,二十世纪福斯将宣布扩张其超级英雄电影版图:非凡特工队(X-Force)将被搬上大银幕,与金刚狼并肩作战。据外媒报道,《X战警》漫画的作者Rob Liefeld已着手创作剧本,《海扁王2》导演杰夫·瓦德洛有望执导,《金刚狼2》和《X战警前传2》的制片人劳伦·舒勒·唐纳将担纲监制。Rob Liefeld个人Twitter截图,万磁王电影已被福斯提上日程   这样一来,在即将上映的《X战警前传2》之后,福斯公司将在《X战警》系列电影加入更多变种人角色。如果其他电影公司开启任何一队超级英雄的电影,福斯公司也会将旗下的超级英雄“组团”上阵作为回击。此外,《X战警》漫画的作者Rob Liefeld在个人Twitter上回应,独立的万磁王电影已被福斯提上日程。   福斯公司的急迫不无道理。超级英雄电影的世界早已剑拔弩张。迪士尼旗下的漫威影业打造的超级英雄宇宙将推出其“第二阶段”的核心作品,包括《银河护卫队》(2014年8月1日上映)和《复仇者联盟2》(2015年5月1日)以及“第三阶段”的《蚁人》(2015年11月6日)。而漫威的劲敌DC漫画也不手软,它们联手华纳推出的《蝙蝠侠》和《超人:钢铁之躯》与漫威影业对抗,而新作《正义联盟》也正在紧锣密鼓地筹备之中。“X-Force”漫画封面   在《X战警》漫画中,非凡特工队(X-Force)隶属于X战警。他们与正面形象示人的金刚狼不同,他们擅长用一些极端、残暴的方式与敌人对抗,为了保护变种人的生命勇往直前。主要成员包括老狼、X-23(老狼的克隆体)、印第安战士Warpath、具有高度飞行能力的Archangel以及拥有变身能力的Wolfsbane等。非凡特工队众多新角色的加入,将为福斯旗下的超级英雄阵营加入砝码,而如何保持《X战警》和《金刚狼》系列电影的影调和风格,也是福斯下一步要考虑的议题。   就在昨天,《金刚狼2》主演休·杰克曼接受外媒采访时曾表示,他渴望与蜘蛛侠、钢铁侠以及“复联”成员们并肩作战。福斯公司扩展X-战警系列的计划将该系列带入新的阶段。由于《钢铁侠》、《蜘蛛侠》的版权分属不同的电影公司,福斯这一举动将各大公司对超级英雄题材的竞争带入白热化阶段。
《怪兽大学》北美周五夺冠 《末日之战》喜人 《怪兽大学》夺得北美周五票房冠军《末日之战》将创下皮特主演影片的最卖座开画纪录   时光网讯 本周五,北美两部强势大片上映,联手逼退《超人:钢铁之躯》。不出意外地,皮克斯合家欢3D动画《怪兽大学》以3050万美元领跑拿下冠军。亚军是派拉蒙的PG-13级僵尸灾难片《末日之战》,2500万美元的成绩已经超越了之前的预期。再加上退居第三的《超人:钢铁之躯》依旧强劲的吸金能力,本周末北美票房的总成绩有望写下新的纪录。   《怪兽大学》发挥了皮克斯动画的一贯高水准,在Cinemascore得到A级的评分。媒体预估影片首周三天票房将冲破7500万美元,将成为仅次于《玩具总动员3》1亿1030万美元的皮克斯作品第二好开画成绩。不过《怪兽大学》的前途并非一片光明,仅在两周后它就将受到来自环球动画《神偷奶爸2》(又名:卑鄙的我2)的挑战。   布拉德·皮特主演的《末日之战》继午夜场收获360万美元小胜《怪兽大学》(260万美元)之后,单日票房冲高到2500万美元。按照目前的走势,影片周末票房有望突破6000万美元,而此前皮特主演的影片中最卖座开画成绩只是2005年与安吉丽娜·朱莉合演的《史密斯夫妇》,该片成绩为5040万美元。但是,基于《末日之战》的拍摄和宣传成本高达3.6亿美元,影片距离盈利还有一段漫长的路要走。   《末日之战》得到Cinemascore B+的综合评分,它在率先上映的海外市场表现同样喜人。在韩国,该片首日拿下150万美元,完胜一周前首映的《超人:钢铁之躯》(当时的成绩110万美元),而在阿根廷它首日71万美元的票房也是《钢铁之躯》首映成绩的两倍。   《超人:钢铁之躯》开画第二周以1270万美元稳居季军,目前北美累积已经超过1.8亿。在此前的北美票房历史上,在一个非假期的周末中从未出现过三部电影的票房同时超过5000万美元,至于这次能否改写这个纪录,主要得看第三名《超人:钢铁之躯》的表现了。 北美周五票房(6.21)Top 10(单位:万美元)位次 片名 周五票房 总票房 1 《怪兽大学》new 3050.7 3050.7 2 《末日之战》new 2500 2500 3 《超人:钢铁之躯》 1270 18149.1 4 《世界末日》 410 4889.2 5 《惊天魔盗团》 245 8903.1 6 《速度与激情6》 145 22513.7 7 《人类清除计划》 117.5 5718.6 8 《实习大叔》 107.5 3601.5 9 《星际迷航:暗黑无界》 85.5 21449.6 10 《珠光宝气》 68.2 102.3
大家认为在北美《末日之战》对《钢铁之躯》票房影响多大 “ 时光网讯 由布拉德·皮特监制并主演、《死囚之舞》《寻找梦幻岛》导演马克·福斯特执导的灾难恐怖动作大片《末日之战》已于6月21日北美上映,目前媒体评论已经出炉,这一次媒体评论和观众评分南辕北辙的情况并没有出现。目前,烂番茄70%的新鲜度,IMDb7.2分以及相对严苛的Metacritic的63分的评分,似乎都在预示着,《末日之战》是一部“有着不错水准”的商业大片。 皮特表现获赞 “一部有智商的动作片”   绝大多数的媒体都给出了好评,《好莱坞报道者》赞许了皮特的表演:“皮特在这部电影中贡献出了杰出的表演。”《综艺》杂志则称:“这部电影对丧尸片是一个很不错的、聪慧的、而且是具有意义的改写和扩充。”《时代周刊》大加赞赏:“这部电影相当不错,是这个夏天里最有智商的一部动作片。”   影片的风格得到了媒体的认可,《完全电影》评论称:“从数量到质量,从影片的风格到其对僵尸电影的改变,这部电影让僵尸入侵看起来栩栩如生。”而《泰晤士报》则称:“与其说这是一部僵尸恐怖片,不如说这是一部主打动作戏份的科幻大片。”   给出差评的媒体并不算多,《Reel Views》评论称:“世界末日片加上僵尸片的这种稀奇古怪的综合体,让人很是失望。”《纽瓦克明星纪事》则认为:“片段化的叙事和零零碎碎的混搭风格,让人有点不舒服。” 在北美大超面对皮特还是有压力的,在全球方面,《末日之战》在中国内地上映希望渺茫,大超在近期还是能保持优势的。
《超人》北美狂轰1.13亿夺冠 大破6月开画纪录 《超人:钢铁之躯》剧照   作为华纳整个“正义联盟”计划的奠基之作和最关键一环,《超人:钢铁之躯》由华纳和传奇影业共同历时3年制作完成,耗资达2.25亿美元之巨,由克里斯托弗·诺兰监制,《300勇士》《守望者》的扎克·施奈德执导。此次新任“ 超人”由英国男星亨利·卡维尔饰演,艾米·亚当斯则出演“超人”女友,本片的其他卡司还包括迈克尔·珊农 、罗素·克劳、黛安·莲恩 、凯文·科斯特纳等,阵容堪称豪华。   在自家的诺兰版“蝙蝠侠”黑暗骑士三部曲完结之后,面对老对手漫威越发猛列的攻势,DC/华纳方面可谓压力山大。总之,《超人:钢铁之躯》在华纳未来数年的电影计划中具有至关重要的战略位置,几乎可以说是只能成功不能失败的。   影片周五开始在4207家影院(其中850多家2D影院,331家IMAX影院)公映,果然不负众望,当日即轰下4400万(含900万的午夜场),继而更是借助“父亲节”效应,走出周六3630万,周日3270的高端曲线,首周末合计斩获1.13亿,加上周四晚间收割的1200万提前场,3天半收入高达1.25亿美元。这一成绩不仅大幅超越《蝙蝠侠:侠影之谜》(4870万)、《星际迷航》(7520万)和《神奇蜘蛛侠》(6200万)等片创下系列电影重启之作的最高开画票房,更是打破了《玩具总动员3》(1.1亿)保持的影史六月开画纪录。《超人:钢铁之躯》剧照   当然,《超人:钢铁之躯》如今也是导演扎克·施耐德和一众主演等个人目前最高开画作品。值得一提的还有,1.13亿的周末票房中,约41%来自3D,12%(1330万)来自IMAX。从观众构成看,女性观众占44%,25岁以上观众占62%,预示后劲健康。另外,从影院观众评分CinemaScore(”A-”)看,本片毫无疑问达到了优质商业爆米花应有的水准。良好观众口碑加上不俗开局,预计本片最终的北美票房将轻松达到3亿美元以上。   再看媒体评价方面,烂番茄新鲜度57%、预示着本片近乎两极分化的影评人观点;而代表权威媒体的MetaCritic上47家媒体综评开出55分,以好评和中评为主: “与《复仇者联盟》那种大规模的逃避现实不同,《钢铁之躯》是对一个我们自以为了解的银幕英雄的艺术家级别的引荐” ——《坦帕湾时报》 “《钢铁之躯》有力地重新定义了在最近几年的暑期档里被用烂了的‘史诗’一词” ——《Film.com》 “本片在深度、温情和幽默感上或许着力不足,但它已然是壮观的科幻大片——宏大、伤感、带有歌剧风格,令人难忘。它讲述贴合于我们这个时代的超人起源故事,并且开启一个受欢迎的超级系列” ——《帝国杂志》 “影片在故事的讲述上时而高歌猛进,时而则因过于亢奋的氛围反而变得麻木起来。然而,亨利·卡维尔有着这一经典漫画角色所需要的魁梧英俊的外形,以及与其超级能力相匹配的人性一面” ——《今日美国》 “一部没有灵魂,夸夸其谈的无聊之作” ——《圣路易斯邮报》 “片中充斥的虚假爱国主义竟然不是用来讽刺,而是用于打造一幅不容置疑的田园牧歌式善良愿景” ——《Slant Magazine》 “施耐德试图用无休止的爆破、撞击、热爆、天翻地覆、以及枪炮和对殴来升级他的视觉奇观,但结果却事与愿违,并且最终显露出此类影片的疲态” ——《华盛顿邮报》

W.L. Swarts的《超人:钢铁之躯》内部试映影评 我也不知道W.L. Swarts是谁,英语好的凑合看看吧 Summer Blockbuster Season’s Big Legitimate Hit Is Made With Man Of Steel! The Good: Character, Most of the performances, Special effects The Bad: Plot progression is painfully predictable. The Basics: A complete reboot of Superman, Man Of Steel presents a more angsty version of Clark Kent and Kal-El and a bigger threat to Earth in his first real adventure. I am not a fan of Superman. The character spent decades as a monolithic ideal who evolved from an ultra-powerful man who helped cats out of trees into a blandly virtuous, virtually invincible fighter for peace, justice, the “American Way” and the protection of Earth. In recent years, the Superman comic books have moved away from the absolutism that defined the character, but he’s not been placed in a situation like Wonder Woman where to save the world from an unstoppable killing machine, a human being has to die, like Wonder Woman did in The OMAC Project . So, the idea of the new reboot of the Superman cinematic franchise with Man Of Steel had no inherent draw to me and, if anything, I was biased against it. First, I felt bad for Bryan Singer and Brandon Routh. For all of the problems with Superman Returns , Routh’s performance was not the reason the film failed. Routh took the blame much like Eric Bana did for Hulk . And after seeing Immortals , I was not convinced Henry Cavill was the one to take up the role of Clark Kent/Superman. But, with Man Of Steel he lands it and the film works becoming a surprisingly compelling super hero film that ups the stakes for the DC (cinematic) universe and gives viewers a smarter superhero film than they have seen in some time. A political and military vulnerability to his father on Krypton, Jor-El, Kal-El is sent away from Krypton to Earth. On Earth he grows up as the son of Jonathan and Martha Kent. Raised to be virtuous, kind, and giving, Jonathan also raised his adopted son to be cautious and not reveal his extraordinary abilities – like amazing strength and speed. Despite some incidents, like saving a bus load of children from an accident as a youth, Clark Kent (as Kal-El goes by in his life “passing” as a human) gets by. In his young adulthood, though, he begins to feel isolated and he starts to avoid people in order to not have his incredible abilities discovered. His journey of self discovery brings him to the abandoned craft that brought him to Earth and there he learns of his Kryptonian heritage. In exploring his abilities, Kal-El comes to the attention of the U.S. military and Lois Lane, intrepid reporter from Metropolis. The curiosity about his nature, though, quickly is trumped when an alien invasion force arrives. Led by General Zod, Jor-El’s enemy, the Kryptonian force comes for Kal-El and when Zod’s forces begin laying waste to Earth, Kal-El decides to step up and become humanity’s savior. Having recently watched the 1970’s Superman , it is worth noting that Man Of Steel distances itself well from that vision of Superman. Man Of Steel is darker and works to fit Clark Kent into more of a real world than a fantastic or cinematic rendition of our world (though everyone looks Hollywood beautiful in Man Of Steel). Thus, Man Of Steel sacrifices much of the charm of Christopher Reeves’s Superman in favor of an outsider protagonist who is caught between using his powers to help people and struggling to avoid persecution that his alien nature will bring from the xenophobic and fearful humans (who could desperately use his help). The biggest tone change is the lack of humor in Man Of Steel. This Clark Kent is not an “aww shucks” farm boy, he’s a guy who has methodically covered his tracks to avoid making a splash until normal human incident after normal human incident conspires to reveal his true nature (by him using his extraordinary and inhuman abilities to help other people). Man Of Steel has a few amusing lines, but for the most part, it is a much more stark, character-driven piece with a protagonist who is far more consciously created as an outsider than prior renditions (at least cinematically) of Superman have been. This, naturally, is expected of the director of Watchmen,and Zack Snyder’s trend for delivering characters who face overwhelming odds and making smarter-than-average super hero films remains unchallenged. Significant in Man Of Steel is the tone. The set-up for Clark Kent and coming to terms with his identity as Kal-El is appropriately belabored and conflicted, drawn out until General Zod returns to the narrative. But when Zod arrives at Earth, the film takes a somewhat troubling turn toward the familiar. Man Of Steel was delayed from a planned release last year and while the studio’s reason might be that they wanted to get the effects (especially 3-D conversion) right, it is not long into Zod’s reign of terror that loyal viewers of DC-based films will suspect that they did not want viewers to start noting the plot comparisons (the whole “under siege” plot) with The Dark Knight Rises . And as one of the few fans of the cinematic Green Lantern, the whole DC Universe problem with Man Of Steel is certainly the lack of presence of the space cops of the galaxy. After all, prior incarnations which had Clark Kent as the sole surviving Kryptonian did not exactly warrant the presence of the interstellar police force, but in Man Of Steel, Zod and his allies come in force with an invasion plan and weapons which seem like they would fall pretty safely under the purview of the Green Lantern Corps . . . . . . so, Man Of Steel is plotted like a super hero origin story. That’s fine, it is what it is. The character front has Man Of Steel making a fresh take on the familiar elements of the Superman story and it makes Kal-El’s alien nature – something which the graphic novels have only focused on in the past few decades as a source of conflict with the more refined version of Lex Luthor – an issue that is presented in an unfortunately realistic way. Yes, human beings are not the most accepting race and Jonathan Kent is proven right for urging his son to be cautious in his exposing himself to humans. Human xenophobia and fear is a predominate theme in Man Of Steel (much like fear was in Batman Begins) and writers David S. Goyer and Christopher Nolan do a decent job of making the film about more than just an alien with incredible abilities and, instead, about broader themes about the state of humanity and how we treat one another. Fortunately, Clark Kent’s ethics prevent him from simply imposing growth on our backwards planet – a point which is driven home when General Zod and his soldiers come to extort humanity and destroy the masses who cannot reasonably stand in his way. On the acting front, I wanted to start my commentary of Man Of Steel with the note that my longstanding disdain of Russell Crowe’s narrow acting range does not prevent me from openly acknowledging that he takes the role of Jor-El (who comparatively has exceptionally little screentime) and makes him empathetic and seem like a father deeply torn between having the life he wants (with his family) and trying to protect his son and his planet. Crowe is decent for the part of Jor-El and his performance makes the mentoring that Jor-El provides his son seem like more than banal exposition or bland moralizing and actually seem inspiring. The supporting cast in Man Of Steel is fleshed out well. Like Crowe, Kevin Costner is given the role of Jonathan Kent, which could have been presented as campy or over-the-top and Costner delivers subtle and restrained. Michael Shannon’s General Zod is powerful in voice and posture, even if the character is a bit monolithic and Richard Schiff and Christopher Meloni make their roles as Dr. Emil Hamilton and Colonel Hardy seem like quite a bit more than background characters. Schiff and Meloni embody their characters in such a way that makes them seem like their entire existence does not revolve around Kal-El, like they were living in a world before his appearance and they have other things going on besides him and the plot of Man Of Steel. I like the sense that such comparatively minor characters have an identity that is not simply built around the one story. Laurence Fishburne is characteristically great as Lois Lane’s boss at The Daily Planet, Perry White. That brings us to Amy Adams. Adams plays Lois Lane in Man Of Steel and she brings all the pluck and determination fans of the Superman franchise would expect from Lois Lane. More importantly, Adams has great on-screen chemistry with the film’s star Henry Cavill. Henry Cavill is more than just a pair of toned pectoral muscles and abs that won’t quit as Kal-El. Just as Christopher Reeves brought a wholesome and obviously kind disposition to his version of Clark Kent , Cavill is able to portray conflict and uncertainty well . . . then change it up plausibly with powerful and unafraid. At his best, Henry Cavill uses his eyes to emote and express the idea that Kal-El is terrified of what the people in the world will do to him, while knowing that he could change everything. His scenes opposite Michael Shannon’s Zod give him the chance to both show of physical strength and spout noble aphorisms. On the effects front, Man Of Steel is good. I cannot speak to the 3-D, but the standard CG effects look great. So, for example, the shots of Kal-El’s cape when he is in his Kryptonian suits looks real (Snyder and his effects team got the effects right) and the digital models of Cavill when he is flying look like they are in the real world as well. Despite the issues where Man Of Steel is plotted like a familiar super hero origin story, the film feels fresher than most and is not only solidly entertaining, it makes a decent commentary on the human and alien here on Earth.
