"I'm more familiar with DC Comics than Marvel Comics."

Del Toro walked out of the cinema screening hall with his companions, "Marvel Comics has been silent for too long, and it has become far inferior to DC Comics."

"but…"

When he saw the huge poster in the movie theater lobby, he couldn't help but exclaimed, "But the ones shot by Orion Films and Marvel Films are indeed very exciting."

"Ryan Gosling perfectly portrayed a real superhero. Spiderman will definitely become the most famous superhero in North America. Of course, Natalie Portman's performance is also very exciting."

"This is a commendable film." One of his companions agreed with him very much, "Every film directed by Ryan Gosling seems to be surprising."

Of course, no film is perfect, and it is impossible to win everyone's support.

The same goes for including.

Hearing his companion's comments, Eric McLeod curled his lips, "I admit that Ryan Gosling's directing level is very high, but this film is a commercial popcorn film with a simple and straightforward plot. Anything worth bragging about."

"Whether it's the plot or character creation, it can't compare with Andy."

He said very affirmatively: "I can guarantee that the long-term box office trend of this film is not as good as it is."

Compared with , the shortcoming of the film is very obvious, that is, in the long-term box office trend.

To put it bluntly, it is only a commercial popcorn movie, and it cannot maintain the audience's reputation and box office trend for a long time.

However, there was one thing he didn't think of.

The 911 incident has just passed, and the right time, place and people are in the right place.

Del Toro was a little dissatisfied and glanced at Eric McLeod, "Eric, you seem to have forgotten one thing, Ryan Gosling is not only a director, but also the owner of Orion Pictures .”

"It was he who decided to shoot and, and chose Peter Jackson as the director of the film."

Eric-McLeod suddenly became speechless.

Driving to the stretched Lincoln on Mount Holmby, Ryan took out a bottle of red wine from the refrigerator, poured it into a wine glass, and handed one of the glasses of red wine to Natalie Portman, "It will be released next month, there will be no threat Arrived."

He swung his wine glass, smelled the aroma of the red wine, and continued, "It's similar to the movie. Both are family fun movies, and the main moviegoers are young people."

It is obvious that the audiences of the two films are different.

"Many people are envious of you now."

Natalie Portman reached out to take the red wine, did not dwell on the topic just now, but said, "The value of Marvel Comics, with the release of , at least multiplied several times."

In the previous life, Disney spent 4.24 billion U.S. dollars to acquire Marvel Studios, which relied on the big sales of movies at that time.

Among them is Marvel Comics.

However, at that time, Marvel Comics and Marvel Pictures had lost the copyrights of superhero characters such as , , , , and so on, leaving only a group of second-line superheroes.

But now the number of superhero copyrights owned by Marvel Pictures far exceeds that of previous lives.

However, in the previous life, Disney was willing to spend 4.24 billion U.S. dollars to buy Marvel Pictures based on the fact that the first film of the Avengers project was a big hit, with a global box office of 585 million U.S. dollars. The entire Avengers project has successfully taken a crucial first step .

Right now, Marvel Studios has not yet prepared the Avengers plan, only the box office hit on the first day, and the specific market value is difficult to calculate.

After all, this is not a listed company.

Of course, Ryan has no plans to list Marvel Pictures for the time being, let alone choose to sell it.

"I read the comments on the website just now."

Natalie Portman seemed a little helpless, and said, "Whether it's me or Toby Maguire, obviously neither is as popular as Spider-Man itself."

This is not the first time she has encountered such a thing.

When it was first released, she encountered the same situation.

The focus of audiences, movie fans, and even the media is almost always on Skywalker, not the actors themselves.

Ryan smiled slightly, "It's normal, after all, what the audience wants to see is Spider-Man, not the actor himself."

"Of course there are occasional exceptions."

He couldn't help thinking of Scarlett Johansson, Robert Downey Jr., Gal Gadot.

"Exception?" Natalie Portman was a little puzzled.

"Superhero movies are fundamentally different from ordinary commercial movies. What really brings charm is not the actors themselves, but the superhero characters."

After thinking about it, Ryan explained: "However, there are exceptions to everything. Some actors will perfectly combine with superhero characters and become superstars in superhero movies."

"Obviously, Tobey Maguire has not achieved the superstar you mentioned." Natalie Portman blinked at Ryan, "A superstar who can represent Spider-Man."

Ryan couldn't help but glared at her, "Tobey Maguire performed very well in the film, and not every actor can perfectly combine with a superhero character."

"It's not a question of acting skills, let alone Toby-Maguire didn't sit alone."

Natalie-Portman rolled her eyes. She knew who Ryan was talking about.

Not long after, a black stretched Lincoln slowly drove into the gate of a manor, facing Holmby Mountain Park.

Natalie Portman couldn't wait to push open the car door, walked to the gate of the manor, and looked inside, "This is the Neverland Manor you just bought?"

"How about it? It's not bad." Looking at the manor in front of him, Ryan nodded with satisfaction.

This manor covers an area of ​​about 0.52 hectares and was built in 1991. It is a two-story French building with 123 rooms, an indoor ice rink, multiple swimming pools, 3 kitchens, an orchard and a bowling alley. field.

It is the largest private residence in Los Angeles County.

"Don't you think it's too big!"

After looking at it, Natalie Portman looked back, shrugged her beautiful shoulders and said, "It will make people lose their way."

"By the way, when do you plan to come over?"

"It will take a while." Ryan will not move here immediately, "I need to find someone to redecorate."

It's not a comprehensive renovation, but some interior renovations, such as replacing some old furniture and carpets, and redesigning the internal structure and so on.

"However, we can go in and take a look now." He stretched out his hand to invite Natalie-Portman and said.

"A good suggestion." Natalie Portman naturally would not refuse.

At that moment, Ryan walked into the manor with Natalie Portman in his arms, and wandered around casually.

Just like what Natalie Portman said, its area is too large, and it is less than half of it to walk through the rooms.

She protested, "This is a maze I need to rest for a while."

After finishing speaking, Natalie Portman sat down directly on an artistic sofa, "I'm still used to smaller houses."

Seeing this, Ryan sat down next to Natalie-Portman, staring at her delicate face, "Honey, I think we can try a new environment."

"Go to the master bedroom, I want to be up there." Natalie Portman didn't refuse, but was faintly eager to try

"No problem." Ryan reached out and hugged Natalie Portman horizontally, and walked towards the master bedroom.

Since the last time the duo did it together in Australia, Ryan has had occasional sleepovers with Natalie-Portman.

Of course, in return, Ryan is responsible for Natalie Portman's house, vehicles, luxury goods, cosmetics, etc.

He has never been stingy about giving money.

In this regard, Natalie - Portman did not refuse.

In fact, Natalie-Portman's income is not very high. She received very limited remuneration in the Star Wars series of films and films.

Her start rose dramatically, almost astronomically, as the global box office hit.

For example, clothing, clothes for various banquets and public occasions, it is basically impossible to wear them a second time, as well as other luxury houses, luxury cars, luxury goods, cosmetics, assistant teams, etc., all of which are a lot of money.

This is why, many Hollywood female stars will choose to associate with wealthy businessmen, even if the other party is older than her father.

Natalie-Portman has seen many such transactions in the circle.
