Since the film began to add content other than visual stimuli, an important task has been obtained, that is, how to attract the target group. This concept does not exist for simple visual stimulation-for specific types and contents (plasma/special effects/explosions) you may not catch a cold or be used to it, but from a design point of view, this kind of physiological sensory stimulation is not It will be differentiated for the audience group-however, for those smart movies, or any movie that wants to be smart, a content that must be carefully considered is who its audience is: who will be interested in your movie ? What kind of background and preferences do they have? Can you understand and are willing to understand the claims of the film?
Last but not least, are they willing to pay for your movie?
It is good to be able to attract more audiences for the movie, but for a good filmmaker, it can resonate well with the target audience, which is far higher than the box office, but it is self-sufficient and self-inflated. The half-slapped middle-aged greasy dinosaur men chirp and point to be more successful.
If they're not for you, just shut it and leave.
In this important sense, the appearance of "Deadpool" is particularly important. For the first time, a movie produced by a major Hollywood studio was not intended to attract more audiences and to change the style of the movie into a more popular audiovisual language, but to start with a niche and subculture, and firstly protect the characters and stories. The complete original attributes, and with its unique aesthetic style, attracted the attention of more ordinary audiences.
Making a movie is a challenge. As a result, the production of movies like "Deadpool" will have to face greater challenges, and the production of comedy sequels like "Deadpool 2" will also encounter some more difficult problems. Similar to the best comedy series in history, "Deadpool 2", "Back to the Future", and even "Dragon and Tiger Boys", the ultimate goal to achieve is to repeat itself intelligently.
Compared with Marvel’s own masterful and highly predictable "Avengers 3", "Deadpool 2" is not only a turbulent current, but also a pop culture crusher with a different taste. Unlike the ambitions of "The Amazing Spider-Man 2", "Ace Agent 2", and "Guardians of the Galaxy 2," Compared with the first movie, "Deadpool 2" is almost like looking in a mirror. "Wolverine", the second copy of "Terminator", the jokes are still yellow storms and low as always, men are still the same cheap and ugly, women are still the same people, but in blood The level of action scenes and special effects have improved significantly.
The only major difference is probably the core of the whole story, from a love story covered by vulgar jokes to a sad story covered by vulgar jokes.
This also almost sums up the two engines of all comedy: Either make a fool of yourself for love, or be X to death by life.
The first film "Deadpool" was shocking, relying on the protagonist Ryan Reynolds and director Tim Miller's persistence for several years. For many reasons, the original story of "Deadpool" is adopted. In addition to many subversive adult content, there are many obvious shortcomings-for example, there are only two complete action scenes in the film, such as the lack of main characters. Depth-and fortunately, all these subversive content shines in "Deadpool 2", and all these shortcomings have been somewhat compensated for.
Since the director changed from Tim Miller to David Reach of the "Speed Attack" series, the film has received a lot of complements in the action scenes. The first set of action scenes in the film is a typical David Reach style, with a high degree of recognition. Therefore, "Deadpool 2" is more rude and savage than the front part, and has changed from a fancy somersault like juggling to a real action scene. And this is just the first step in David Reach’s transformation of "Deadpool 2": in the opening minutes, he has already thrown out the classic pieces from the previous episode (Wolverine and "The Empire Strikes Back"), Xiao Xiaoxiu showed off the killing skills upgraded by Deadpool, and the narrative timeline flying up and down. At this time, Josh Brolin's electric lock has not yet appeared, and even the title and the opening of the crazy neta "007" movie have not yet appeared.
Of course, although the investment is not much (110 million US dollars is almost double the 58 million of the previous film, but it is already very restrained in the category of superhero movies), "Deadpool" and "Deadpool 2" are not always self-proclaimed "B-rated movies". The same team of screenwriters—little Ries and Paul Wernick, who created one of the most interesting zombie movies, "Zombie Land"—plus Ryan Reynolds personally went into battle, and the high-quality completion of a moral is more obvious. A script that is both interesting and serious in the process of self-salvation in the search for a family.
Yes, "Deadpool 2" even completed an amazing job in Marvel movies: serious. Under the hippie smile that shows no weakness or even worsened, "Deadpool 2" began to involve more deeply about death/suicide, trust/betrayal, and even family/inheritance, which is very life-like and dramatic content, and it also has a lot of content. High emotional level. When the audience can pay attention to these contents, they will find that the most comical clown in red on the big screen is actually the most clearly developed and successful, and the role arc is the most obvious in all Marvel movies and even all superhero movies. Role. On some levels, "Deadpool 2" is still a half-sized boy who has not grown up, but on some levels, the film’s temperament is also more mature, the narrative is smoother, the motives are more reasonable and natural, and it is no longer used. The jokes conceal the immaturity and tension, and are more confident in the stories they present.
And this allows "Deadpool 2" to find a good balance between the standard "X-Men" movies and "Deadpool" movies. The narrative structure is more traditional, but it is also exciting-not just because of the beginning The tail's ugly jokes and a large number of luxurious guest appearances full of surprises are not just what the excellently designed CG characters in the third act can do with each other (which can almost kill DCEU).
"Deadpool 2" is as full of excitement as its predecessors, and under the operation of David Reach, the action scenes of the whole movie range from urban-scale chase battles to 1v1 inside the apartment. It is simply a carnival flooded with gunpowder and sex hormones. . A lot of farce full of joy, the ridicule of X-Men and Marvel, and even towards the end, there is a bit of weird and warm emotional release in the early Kim Carey movies. This allows "Deadpool 2" to remain invincible in the R-rated superhero movies-considering the mess of "Suicide Squad", "Wolverine" is gone, "Deadpool" is also very likely Will sit longer in this level of dominance.
For the entire superhero movie, it may not be a good thing that pleases everyone's hearts.
