Chapter 961 Easter eggs(1/2)
Regarding the plot of the funeral, Simon referenced the original version of "007: The Ghost Party", but it is just a formal reference, and the specific details are very different.
However, out of some bad taste, one of the original characters in this plot is preserved.
Monica Bellucci.
To be honest, the original "007: Ghost Party" is not so likable, and the brief intersection with Bond seems awkward. It is different now. At this time, Monica Bellucci is just in her early thirties, and her most mature and beautiful stage.
Playing a pretty widow who just lost her husband is truly touching.
James Bond attended the wedding as a friend of Lucica Scala, played by Bellucci, and then approached Lucica and found that the other party was in an unusual state.
As usual, the two of them went to bed soon.
After the joy in the big bed, Lucika directly exposed it, pointing out that 007 cannot be a friend of her husband, and advised the other party to get rid of this muddy water as soon as possible, and the further you go as far as possible. From being directly discovered on the ship at the beginning, to being worried about the infiltration of MI6 when talking to Mrs. M, and then being easily exposed by a woman who just lost her husband, Bond felt the horror of a big net more and more.
Seeing that his persuasion was ineffective, Bond seemed to insist on pursuing it. Lucika handed over a notebook secretly kept by her husband to the other party and urged Bond to leave as soon as possible.
He drove his Aston Martin away from Lucica's manor, and the more Bond thought about it, the more he felt inappropriate he felt.
Suddenly I understood.
From the moment we first met, the state that a woman showed was a kind of despair, knowing that she had not had much despair when she was born.
He frantically turned the steering wheel and returned to Lucica's manor and rushed into the bedroom again. Lucica was already dead on the big bed, wearing a red dress and red lips, like a beautiful rose to sleep peacefully. He seemed to have never experienced pain before his death.
This is also a difference between the film's details and the original version.
In the past "007: Ghost Party", after 007 got information from Lucica, played by Monica Beluch, he still determined to help the other party arrange a way out.
This plot is even very different from the previous 007 series.
In fact, with the different Western public opinion environments, many details of the 007 series are changing.
The early 007 was a completely playboy, passing by in the flowers and not touching the leaves. After the new century, due to the prevalence of ideas such as political correctness and feminism, the 007 series of Bond girls are no longer the same as the original prop, and even had an unforgettable love story with James Bond.
Simon actually didn't dislike this change, but this series became more and more gentle and slow to accommodate political correctness, but Simon couldn't stand it.
Just like the details of Bond's arrangement of the back path for Lucica.
According to the rendering of the video, how could the Ghost Party be so powerful that it would make a damn person escape?
In fact, the entire original version of "007: The Ghost Party" is a very poor quality in Simon's opinion. In addition to being politically correct, there are also action scenes that are annoyingly long and disgusting, such as the beginning of the helicopter war and the later car chase scenes, etc., which at first glance is very exciting, but a scene lasts for four or five minutes, which is not exciting at all.
In addition, the details of such a powerful villain being defeated by Bond are also a joke.
The super owl who controls a large global crime network is actually blocked on the street alone. It is better than a gangster. Even the gangsters on the street fight, they still come and go to a large group of people.
In the new story, before James Bond could have too much sadness for Lucika's death, a sirens rang in his ears.
Bond, who had no time to escape, was arrested by Italian police on murder charges.
This also proves Mrs. M's guess on another level.
A secret big net involved almost everyone, whether it was black or white.
Fortunately, because of Bond's special identity, after negotiations between the two sides, Bond was finally released, and was suspended and was suspended in London.
James Bond was punished on the surface and lived a short life as an ordinary person in London. He always felt that there were many eyes staring at him around him. At a social party, Bond also met a strange middle-aged man who advised him to be calm and obedient. Bond retorted, but the other party seemed to be indifferent and disappeared quietly.
Privately, after studying the notebook left by Lucika to herself, 007 cracked a brand new clue. With the help of Qian Penny and Q, Bond got rid of MI6's surveillance violation and left the UK and went to Switzerland to find a psychiatrist named Madeleine Swan.
This plot still comes from the original version.
However, in addition to the settings, the specific details are also very different from the original version.
Like the original version, Madeleine Swan is also the decent girl of this 007 movie, and Simon finally chose Uma Thurman to take on the role.
Uma Thurman actually does not conform to Simon's aesthetics. However, during the casting process of the movie, Simon's first consideration is usually whether the role is suitable. He never thought of turning Hollywood into the Korean entertainment industry, all with one face. Compared with the original Lea Seidu, Uma Thurman, who is tall and has a mysterious and beautiful temperament, is completely in line with Simon's new setting for Madeleine Swan.
Because there will be an important easter egg in this part of the plot.
About Madeline Swan's identity.
Simply put, this is a former Charlie's Angel, a Charlie's Angel who once worked in the Detective Charlie's office.
The two met at a luxurious psychological clinic on the top of the Alps. They tried each other and no one could win the trust of each other. At the same time, the villain who had always been with Bond was soon present and chased 007 and Swan.
Unlike the original drag, from escaping from the top of the mountain clinic to skiing down the mountain, it was a very straightforward action scene.
The mysterious female killer played by Victoria's Secret Angel Robert Chilco, who was knocked down to the sea by Bond in the opening wedge, also appeared again. Bond, who had a captain with the female killer bare hands, failed to win. Madeline Swan stepped forward to help and showed Bond's powerful skills that surprised him, but the two joined forces to be at a disadvantage in front of the female killer.
The female killer with innocent green eyes but cold and bloodthirsty also took the air conditioner to tease the two of them, claiming that they would deal with themselves, and they needed another helper.
Three to one.
God said, there must be light...
In short, a helicopter appeared quickly and jumped off the rope three tall and fully armed girls, all covered in faces and carrying weapons.
Without time to explain, she handed the female killer to three helpers who suddenly arrived. Madeline Swan said in a hurry and took Bond to climb the rope hanging down by the helicopter and left early. Looking down at the camera, the three masked girls were already standing with the female killer.
For those who don't pay much attention to Hollywood, this plot seems a bit abrupt.
However, when viewers who paid a little attention to MGM and saw three fully armed girls, they immediately thought of the "Charlie's Angels" series. Although there has not been a formal trailer yet, the popularity of this series has been going on for a long time.
Unexpectedly, MGM would put such an easter egg in 007 here.
MGM has been secretly informed about the plan for the Agent's Cinema Universe.
At this time, the audience with more intuitions, when they saw this easter egg, they immediately thought of the phrase that appeared most frequently in Hollywood in recent years: the movie universe.
The DC Cinema Universe and the Conjuring Cinema Universe have both been successful. Even if a single movie has not appeared, it is a sure thing in the eyes of many people. Although other studios have not created a long-term series that competes with the Conjuring Cinema Universe so far, they often deliberately take advantage of the popularity of the term on some projects.
After all, when it comes to being associated with the movie universe, it means a high level of attention first.
As for whether it can succeed in the future, I will talk about it in the future.
Now, the 007 series has been implanted with the easter eggs of "Charlie's Angels". Think about Simon Westeros strongly regaining control of the 007 series from the Brockley family in the UK, and the upcoming "Charlie's Angels" that will be released at the end of the year. Similar themes and different interludes, isn't this a movie universe?
The name will not be too biased.
Agents Movie Universe.
It's obvious.
Many of the live reporters who attended the premiere were even more excited about this discovery. However, once this topic is confirmed, it will be a hot topic for at least a week.
As for some other studio executives or Hollywood filmmakers, this is a mixed bag.
The two cinematic universes that have been formed in Hollywood are already beyond the reach of everyone. Now, if the third cinematic universe appears again, and it is a movie universe based on a super IP like 007, it will inevitably occupy a large number of Hollywood's various resources again.
Then, one grows and the other grows.
With all kinds of thoughts, the plot on the big screen continues.
Leaving the Alps and arriving in a safe house in Geneva, Madeline Swan, who had fought side by side, confirmed Bond's identity again and began to reveal more to the other party.
Madeline Swan was once a very ordinary girl with a wealthy family. If it weren't for some incident, she might have lived in London, married a famous lawyer or financier, and lived a full-time housewife.
Unfortunately, the peaceful life was broken when she was 16 years old.
As a businessman, the father was involved in a smuggling case, which led to Madeline's parents being killed together. She accidentally escaped. After the police's investigation of the cause of her parents' death could not be resolved, she began a long journey of self-finding. During this period, Madeline received many professional agent investigation training and said she had joined a secret top detective firm.
And, the three girls who just appeared to help were their colleagues before Madeline left the job.
Even though Madeline Swan did not mention the specific name of a detective firm, the topic was mentioned in this regard, even the slowest audience had already reacted.
Detective Charlie.
It's obvious.
True!
After this simple background introduction, Madeline Swan led Bond to a secret room to show 007 his investigation results over the years.
The facts are simply hopeless.
During years of investigation, Madeline Swan discovered an international super criminal group that integrates drug trafficking, arms smuggling, human trafficking and other high-profit crimes. Because this criminal group is too hidden and decisive and ruthless, it has a deep penetration into government departments of various countries, and has mercilessly eliminated members who make mistakes or attempt to betray, so it has never been known to the outside world.
The recent case of drug smuggling on the English Channel that shocked the world is just an operation of this criminal network. Lucika Scala's husband, the nominal owner of the cruise ship, was liquidated because of the failure of this operation, and Lucika himself did not leave any survivors, which is the usual style of the organization's conduct.
Moreover, according to the evidence collected by Madeline Swan, many famous warlord organizations, mafia, snakehead group, etc. around the world are actually just the periphery of this criminal group.
Therefore, you can imagine how huge this criminal group is.
Since he was just a little girl and after many years of investigation, Madeline Swan finally only vaguely got a name from this organization.
Ghost Party.
The totem of this organization is an octopus.
It symbolizes that the Ghost Party is like an octopus, extending its tentacles to all aspects of the world.
Madeline Swan also complained that she could have continued to investigate secretly like this and finally revealed the truth. As a result, Bond attracted the Ghost Party to her side. She could no longer hide and could only give it a try.
In addition, in the secret room of Madeleine Swan, Bond also accidentally found an old photo. One of the people in the photo was Madeleine's father and the other one, the strange middle-aged man he met at a London party.
After memories, Madeline finally remembered.
She didn't know the specific identity of the man, but she remembered that her father seemed to call him Mr. White.
!
As the story goes here, two-thirds of the entire film have passed.
