The news over the past two days was that when director Martin Scorsese promoted the new work "The Irishman", when asked about Marvel movies such as "Avengers 4: Endgame", Martin said he did not watch the comics. The movie also said that Marvel movies are not movies, they are more like theme parks... In the eyes of most people, only movies without special effects can show the real performance level of actors, and Marvel movies have also Therefore, it is controversial, but it is not the case. Sci-fi movies that use a lot of green screen shooting and add tons of computer special effects also have high requirements for the quality of performers. Some people will say that "performance without physical objects is the basic skill of every actor", but if there is no solid and profound basic skills, performance without physical objects on the screen can only be embarrassing.
"Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." Daisy said in an interview:
. In the movie universe series such as "Avengers", which is the main game of MCU, the performances of the leading and supporting roles are excellent. On the filming set, there is no film. With crazy and cool special effects, the "superheroes" have no special skills to destroy the world. They only use actions instead of props, which test the actor's ability to reflect the essence of life physically. It not only reflects the performance of the actor, but also needs extreme Strong imagination.
Almost all scenes have to rely on actors to make up their own brains after reading the script, in order to achieve an immersive feeling. Every smile, anger, and panic expression, including every action, must be adapted to the scene. It is not easy to make it all naturally and smoothly. On the contrary, it is easy to be stopped by the director because it is not in place. In the "Captain America" series set:
In the "Avengers" series set:
, Iron Man's armor may be just a piece of plastic; the transformed Hulk is basically a remodeling after bone tracking; Thor's hammer is just A lightweight prop, but it also shows the appearance that no one can move. Captain America uses "cold weapons" superheroes, in the movie, the action scenes are mostly, the special effects will be less, but each "Strong" shield attacks must show a real sense of hit, blow and defense.
The Hulk starred in his true colors before he transformed, and his state after transformation only needs to wear this high-tech tights and retractable neck, but his expression and movements still need to reflect the Hulk's domineering, strength and the wisdom of Dr. Banner. The Scarlet Witch actor, Omei (Elizabeth Olsen), was photographed zooming in out of thin air at the shooting scene. Although the action is accompanied by bloody colors and full of power after special effects processing, the truth is what energy is in front of her "big move" The output did not happen. This is the so-called chaos magic before the special effects were added. In order to accomplish all of this, Omei even asked someone to design her gestures when she released the ability.
Look at Iron Man, the cool armor Mark42? The shooting site only gave him a bunch of glittering logos, and Downey’s task was to wear these "battle armors" to perform the super-rich, the rich, the technological genius and the playboy The superior temperament.
No physical performance is indeed an essential skill for beginner performers, but it is worthy of continuous practice, development and improvement by every actor. Only by doing it step by step in the logical order of real life, can the no physical action be achieved in the film. "Special effects" as natural as in reality.
Superheroes without special effects bonuses are more "happy", but because of their so hard "pleasing" performances, we can see the cool special effects and gorgeous scenes in the later stage.
So how do we evaluate the acting skills of Marvel superhero actors? It’s the words of Thor Fat Soo: "The most important thing in acting in a science fiction film is to never mind how stupid you are." This is the basic qualities of an actor, and they have long understood their hearts and disdain for others. Evaluation is the best in the world of own MCU.
