Chapter 137: Chapter 136: There must be a speech before the war
Of course, when Nanaya scratched his pants he was not reacting to the picture, that was the truth.
You have to know that Nanaya must have watched these scenes at least a hundred times, if not thousands of times, in order to edit the movie. In such a situation, he would have been tired of watching even the fairies in the sky.
However, Kiritsugu and Airi, the loving couple, really showed off to Nanaya, which made him feel a little uncomfortable. And it was really nice to have a girl to help take care of his life. He couldn't always trouble Ori, right? After all, he had already accepted the director's job and would only get busier in the future.
Of course, it is an indisputable fact that this animal has been feeling a little uncomfortable during this period. He didn't feel it before because he had been focusing on work, but now that he has relaxed, he misses the few stores his teacher took him to.
[Ah, I think I should go back to Japan soon. ]
Thinking of this, Nanaya scratched his thigh embarrassedly.
"Ahem."
Peter Jackson also coughed twice, and crossed his legs to hide his embarrassment.
"How on earth does this kid Nanaya take photos of women..."
Peter Jackson may not be an experienced director, but he has definitely seen countless films. However, he has rarely seen a director who can show the charm of women like Nanaya.
Generally speaking, if you want to show a woman's seductive side that arouses men's desire, then you will inevitably reduce other aspects of the woman's attributes; and vice versa.
The Elf Queen Galadriel portrayed by Peter Jackson in "The Lord of the Rings" is like this: holy, kind and considerate, which makes the Elf Queen look sacred and inviolable and difficult to approach, but at the same time it also makes Her Majesty too holy, thus reducing the temptation of a woman to men.
But Nanaya is different. He can grasp the characteristics of every woman very well. He can show the vitality, dignity, kindness, holiness and other charms that a woman should have. But at the same time, Nanaya can make every female character exude the charm that seduces men.
As a professional, Peter Jackson could see the little tricks used by Nanaya in shooting and editing, and he also knew that it was these little tricks that allowed every female character on the screen to firmly attract the audience's attention.
But it is hard to say how to use this little trick. This is not modesty but the fact. This is a unique and distinctive shooting style, and it may even become a characteristic label of Nanaya Film in the future.
"It's really enviable."
Peter Jackson believed that with this skill, even if Nanaya could not become a successful director, he would at least be able to make a name for himself as a photographer.
Of course, it was difficult for the goblin army to cover up its tracks with such a large-scale march, and Goblin Slayer soon noticed it. But even as an expert in dealing with goblins, no, it should be said that it was precisely because Goblin Slayer was an expert in dealing with goblins that he knew more clearly what this large group of goblins meant.
At first, Goblin Slayer hoped that his childhood sweetheart could escape from Border Town because he didn't want the tragedy of his childhood to happen again.
But what no one expected was that this seemingly weak girl showed her strong side at this moment.
She rejected Goblin Slayer's suggestion to leave her hometown, and instead stated that she would face the coming disaster together with her childhood sweetheart.
In order to protect his childhood sweetheart, the Goblin Slayer, who has been acting arbitrarily for the entire movie, finally humbles himself and goes to the Adventurer's Guild to ask for help from all the adventurers in Border Town, hoping that everyone can help him fight against the Goblin army.
As we all know, in order to create an atmosphere.
Hollywood blockbusters usually have a bed before the final battle... ahem, a speech.
This pre-battle speech has been used countless times in blockbuster movies since the movie "Independence Day".
Because it works really well, the audience will be emotionally aroused by the speaker, making them more engaged in the following plot.
When the always aloof Goblin Slayer bowed to the adventurers who had always looked down on him for the safety of his childhood sweetheart and other civilians in the border town, all the audience present were infected.
They truly felt the Goblin Slayer's powerlessness, and they urgently hoped that these adventurers would respond to Goblin Slayer's call.
And the plot arranged by Nanaya did not disappoint the audience. With the help of the counter lady, the adventurers in the border town united against a common enemy and prepared to launch an attack on the goblin army.
Although these adventurers were attracted by the price of one gold coin for the goblin, from the cheers of everyone, the audience could guess that the one gold coin might be a reason, but it was definitely not the fundamental reason.
The adventurers cheered louder and louder, making the audience feel the blood boiling before the battle.
Amidst such cheers, Goblin Slayer's soft but very clear "Thank you" spoken by all the audience thanks to Nanaya' production immediately conveyed his relief and happiness through the big screen, infecting everyone.
This male protagonist, who has always been very emotionally indifferent, clearly expressed his emotions to the audience for the first time.
This gave many viewers a wonderful feeling that their children had finally grown up.
While secretly observing the audience's reactions, Nanaya saw that many people were quietly wiping their eyes, which made him very happy because he achieved the goal he wanted to achieve in this section.
"You are just being sentimental, aren't you?"
Shion was also a little excited when she saw this scene, but she quickly calmed down.
"Of course." Nanaya replied, "I believe many people can see that I am being sentimental, but the vast majority of people will definitely be aroused by my emotions. This is my brilliance."
Nanaya raised his nose proudly, but was slapped back by Shion the next second.
"That's just the way you are!"
Although I don't want to admit it, the filming of this part of Nanaya is indeed very good. This kind of pre-war speech is a very simple way of sensationalism, but it can give people a sense of power to strive forward.
Especially the last word "thank you", which can be said to be the last straw that broke the camel's back emotionally for the audience.
As a commercial film director, sensationalism is the most basic skill.
Nanaya felt that he was at the early stage of sensationalism and was far from reaching the level of James Cameron.
You know, the classic phrase "You Jump, I Jump" has won the hearts of many boys and girls.
At present, Nanaya is still at the stage of sensationalism for the sake of sensationalism, which is several orders of magnitude lower than James Cameron's advanced stage of almost perfectly integrating sensationalism into the film's story framework.
Even compared to the fat guy next to him, Nanaya estimated that he was far inferior to him.
You have to know that when Nanaya watched the first part of "The Lord of the Rings" in his previous life, he was too young and knew almost nothing about the setting of Middle-earth. But even so, when he saw the scene where Gandalf sacrificed himself for everyone, the young boy still burst into tears on the spot.
"After all, there is still a gap between me and them! I still need to work harder."
Nanaya sighed softly, he knew he still had a long way to go on his path to becoming a director.
Compared to Nanaya, who has already focused on his directorial career, the audience present has not yet reached this stage. They are more concerned about the plot in front of them.
"Can they (the adventurers) win?"
In response to his companion's question, William replied: "Probably, otherwise the Japanese director would not be able to leave the theater today."
"I heard that the Japanese are all psychopaths. What if he really lets the adventurers lose?"
"I want to ask you if you have any deep prejudice against the Japanese?" A drop of cold sweat ran down Ed's face, who was married to a Japanese wife.
"Then he's dead." William said with certainty, "If that's the case, I will make sure he never sees the sun tomorrow."
"It seems that there will be no sun tomorrow. The weather forecast says that it will be cloudy tomorrow."
"..."
William was speechless for a moment.
William's frustration aside, other audience members in the theater were also very curious about this matter. Although most of the audience knew that according to the normal routine of commercial films, justice will eventually defeat evil and the protagonist will definitely win the final victory, but because of the unexpected beginning, no one could say this sentence with certainty.
After a whole movie's worth of preparation, the audience has become very clear about the nature of creatures like goblins. They are not smart but they are not mentally retarded either, or in other words, these creatures also have their own cunning.
They can set traps and take advantage of human sympathy, but at the same time, these guys themselves are a violent and cruel race. It is almost impossible to find any words that can praise them. They seem to be the collection of all the negative emotions in the world.
You know, even the orcs in "The Lord of the Rings" can at least be slightly exaggerated by the word loyalty, although those guys with lower IQs may not even know what the word betrayal means.
However, Nanaya would not make such a low-level mistake as those people suspected, because he knew very well that for a commercial film to be successful at the box office, in addition to the plot of the film itself being relatively simple and easy to understand, another thing is the setting of the ending.
The protagonist can lose, but the villain must not win.
Even in Nolan's "The Dark Knight", although Batman was chased by the police, the Joker failed to win at the end of the film.
As for Thanos winning in "Avengers 3"... wake up, that was to support the box office of "Avengers 4".
If it weren't for the failure of "Avengers 3", there wouldn't be such high expectations for "Avengers 4".
After all, in Nanaya's eyes, "Avengers 3" and "Avengers 4" should be considered as one movie, because the two together form a complete story.
