187 Find a Director

director!

The problem that has troubled Soprano's cousins ​​for a long time also shows that the foundation of Wademark's image is indeed very thin compared to the old Hollywood players.

So far, directors who have worked with Wademark Image include Wes Anderson, Oliver Stone, Guilmore Del Toro, Martin Scorsese, the Farreley Brothers, Danny Cannon, Sarah Knoshan, John McNagton, Brett Ratner, and Richard Linklater.

Sarah Knoshang, who filmed "The Big League of Fans", will definitely not work together again. After this New York old Qian filmed his youthful experience, he will be enough to brag for the rest of his life. If it is okay, he will not return to the film industry again.

Brett Ratner, who filmed "Rush Hour", and John McNaughton, who filmed "The Legend of the Condor Heroes", were preparing for the sequel to the film, and they couldn't make any moves.

Danny Cannon, who directed "I Still Know What You Do Last Summer", is a British director invited by Miramax. Obviously, he is not the same as Wademark. It is impossible to hand over important projects like "Fast and Furious".

Richard Linklater ran back to shoot his own art film.

Gilmore del Toro is preparing for a new fantasy horror movie.

Wes Anderson also studied painting in France.

The Farrely brothers are interested in comedy films, and because of the schedule adjustment, they have a very unpleasant relationship with Bai Quinn and probably won't work together in the future.

Oliver Stone and Martin Scorsese, unless they come up with a great script, they will not cooperate easily.

In addition, there are three directors who are working together.

David Lynch is still filming "The King of War".

Paul Thomas Anderson, a young director who became famous for "The Unrestrained Night", is preparing to film "Magnolia". Because Bai Quinn promised to give him the final editing rights, Paul abandoned New Line Film and transferred to Wademark's image with the project. However, he unrealistically hoped that Tomco would play the leading role, which made the prospects of the entire project become confusing.

Tomco is now a member of the 20 million club, and the current budget for the entire movie is only 22 million US dollars, so if Tomco cannot play the role with a salary cut, he can only replace him.

Bai Quinn was too lazy to get involved with Tomco's agent Parker Kingsley, and set a bottom line of $6 million, allowing Paul to bargain with the old woman himself.

The last one is Peter Jackson, who is still preparing for "Lord of the Rings". In order to confirm the situation of the filming location, he is appearing in the mountains of New Zealand.

After counting one by one, there was no one available!

Bai Quinn once met Wes Anderson in Cannes. It seemed that because of love, Wes Anderson was much more peaceful than before, and his obsessive-compulsive disorder was not so obvious. He became soft and casual in front of his girlfriend from Lebanon.

Unfortunately, this guy has made up his mind to make cartoons with his girlfriend.

Bai Quinn could only say: "If you need help, come and find me!" and wish them happiness.

After filming the movie for three years, Bai Quinn is very clear about what kind of director he needs in "Fast and Furious".

If you aim to make a series of movies a year, team stability is the top priority. In this way, a young director with a low foundation and can be bound to the Wademark image for a long time is the best choice.

This person is best a commercial director who is good at commercial films, such as "Explosion Bay" and Tony Scott, who can skillfully use commercial film elements.

The plot is not complicated. The traditional three-act drama mode of commercial films is the Hollywood assembly line plot: encounter conflicts, gather adventures, and defeat bad people.

The core elements remain unchanged: gunfight, fragrant cars, beauties, handsome guys, big explosions.

It's simple to say, but there are not many directors who can implement these key points throughout the process.

The second is the all-round director, such as Spielberg and Lang Howard, who have less obvious authorships.

Their film quality is stable, from script to actor to rhythm to scheduling to values, never making mistakes, but lacking personality.

You can be literary and artistic, and you can also be commercial. As long as you give them a script, they can make works that suit your wishes.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t have a suitable director at hand, we can “shake people”.

Bai Quinn felt that he could not be tied to the chariot of "Gladiator" by Spielberg. At this time, it should be when Spielberg used the huge energy of his predecessors in the film industry. So he told Spielberg about the difficulties he encountered and asked him to introduce a young, capable director who studies commercial films. It is best not to be too expensive!

The target template Bai Quinn has all the target templates, and you will need the younger version of Robert Zemikis!

Robert Zemikis is a student recognized by Spielberg. He learned 90% of Spielberg's understanding of commercial films and made the "Back to the Future" trilogy, "Who Framed Roger the Rabbit" and the famous "Forrest Gump".

Spielberg agreed, and within two days, a handsome young man with black hair appeared in the office building in Burbank.

Because there was no appointment, the young man was treated as a young actor who was lucky by the front desk secretary, hoping to be seen by the "big boss" and became famous, so he stopped him outside the door.

But when he said that he was the director introduced by Spielberg, the young secretary hesitated and finally, under the charm of the man's electric eyes, he mustered up the courage to call Bai Quinn.

Bai Quinn obviously didn't receive the appointment, but heard that it was the director introduced by Spielberg, and he thought that no one would pretend to be so he hurried over from home.

I asked Spielberg on the way, and only then did I find out that the director was busy with business. After finding the person, I forgot to tell Bai Quinn.

The young man Spielberg introduced was Ren Wiseman, who was a professional film master. Although he was only three years older than Bai Quinn, he had a lot of qualifications.

As soon as he graduated, he served as an assistant to the great director Roland Emmerich, participated in the production of Stargate, Independence Day and Godzilla, and was an editor of "The Man in Black", which Spielberg served as the producer.

If Ren Wiseman is not much better than Said in terms of qualifications, he will not have the experience of being alone.

But Bai Quinn knew the real reason why Chris opposed Said's directing of "Fast and Furious".

Chris, who has been working as a president, is well versed in the way of balance and is worried that if Sayed is both a screenwriter and a director, he will have too much say in the project in the future, especially since the film is planned to be made into a series from the beginning.

Len Wiseman did not get the guide of "Fast and Furious" immediately, but needed to pass the test first: filming an MTV, Bai Quinn's new single "Sex E-Teat Again".
