behind the scenes
consistent screenwriters
Although the three episodes of "Fortress Hunting Adventure" are from different directors, the three movies are exactly the same in terms of jokes, plots, and irony. This is because these three movies are all from the same two screenwriters: Jon Heviz and Hayden Schrazberg-both of them are the directors of "Castle Hunting 2". For a series, it is very important to maintain the same level of screenwriting and cast, because such a consistent style can make the film very recognizable.
Thomas Lenno, a well-known comedian who entered the cast of "Castle Hunt" for the first time, said: "I have always been a fan of "Castle Hunt" because these movies are crazy and funny, and they are also very ironic. I like the story and lines of the movie very much, and now I have the opportunity to participate in it, I am very happy. "Castle Hunt 3" has a very good script, probably the best script I have ever seen. Jon Heviz and Hayden provided a lot of crazy ideas and thoughts in the script, which I have never seen before. For example, Santa Claus who was shot from the sky and celebrated his birthday in a strip club- -God, it’s Christmas-Jesus, there are some limited jokes and bridges. The role they arranged for me is Harold Lee’s best friend now. In every way, he is Incompatible with Camargue, a lot of jokes were generated between our two characters. In short, it is difficult to describe the style of this movie and how I feel about it. During the audition, I was very excited because I have been I have always wanted to participate in the shooting of this movie."
Director eager to try
The director of "Castle Hunting 3" is a completely newcomer. He has never directed any movie before. In this movie, he will join hands with all the creators of the first two films to present one. Taiwan crazy and funny drama. Regarding the fact that he can join the big family of "pighead idiots", director Todd Strauss-Sgulson said: "I am like a newcomer in this crew because of the actors and behind-the-scenes members of the crew. , Screenwriters, etc. are all good friends who have cooperated for many years. They are very familiar with each other, so as soon as they meet, they start to talk about the content of the latest episode of "Castle Hunting". And I am a newcomer, only in Listening to their talk. Of course, they don’t want to ignore me deliberately, but I don’t know what to say for a while. Later, as the filming started, I slowly integrated into the crew, and everyone There are more topics and small talk content. These people are very funny and very individual filmmakers. They are very kind and have no temper and air. So I quickly integrated into the crew."
John Zhao, a Korean actor who played Harold Lee in the film, commented on Todd’s directorial work. I also highlighted the 3D element in post-production. Generally speaking, the rhythm and story of the whole movie are similar to the previous two, and the director’s style will be changed to some extent, but the main laugh of this movie depends on It’s the scripts of Jon Heviz and Hayden Schrazberg. They were worried that their style would influence the direction of the movie, so they found Todd to direct them. Todd did a great job with him. cooperation feeling good. "
guilty sale Meng actor
The three "Castle Hunting Adventures" are all restricted comedies through and through, and in an R-rated comedy, the performance of the actors is the top priority. Thomas Lenno said: "I can feel that the director is very interested in our performance, because in such a comedy, the quality of our performance is basically determined by the quality of the film. I think this movie is incompatible with The "Renault 911: Miami" I starred in is very similar. Both movies are between NC-17 and R. The director also asked us to act like that movie. Of course, in In this movie, there will be more jokes, and the comedy of the four big men will not be reduced to a meaningless movie by any means. The scripts of Jon Heviz and Hayden provide an almost endless range of restrictions and A heavy joke. You have to look at it with your own eyes to know how funny this thing is."
John Zhao said: "I played a dumb character in the movie. Hope after burning the father-in-law’s Christmas tree. It was able to make up for it, but it started a crazy journey through blind hitting. In fact, this movie is exactly the same as the previous two "Castle Hunting Adventures". There are many restricted jokes in the movie, such as sex, drugs, and There is religion. Of course these elements are very obscure. The biggest change is that the film has become a 3D format. We used two Panavision cameras to shoot on the scene. At the beginning, I was not used to shooting 3D, but When I saw the three-dimensional images appear on the screen, I felt that my hard work was not in vain.”
