Nanaya has always considered himself to be a fairly reputable person in business.
You have to know that not all movies with good box office can get a lot of commercial sponsorship.
In addition to the suitability of the subject matter, there is also the style of the film and the director's style.
Why Michael Bay's movies always win the favor of investors.
It's because the style of Explosive Bay's movies is suitable, and he has always been open to advertising.
However, this has resulted in the appearance of Explosive Bay's movie ads becoming extremely annoying.
Especially in the later Transformers movies, some of the product placements were so distracting that they were annoying.
Nanaya will certainly not make the same mistakes as Michael Bay. The film can add some appropriate elements into it, but it must maintain its own overall style.
The rhythm of the movie cannot be interrupted by advertisements. This is the red line set for advertising sponsorship.
But on the other hand, if it does not destroy the style of the movie, Nanaya will try its best to meet the requirements of the sponsors.
Especially those who are generous and willing to spend money.
For example, the Rolls-Royce motorcycle that appears on the screen at this moment.
The appearance of Saber's car not only failed to make the audience realize that this was the most expensive product placement in the entire movie.
Instead, he was attracted by this wildly cool and awesome silver motorcycle.
Especially when the chase scene between Saber and Rider reached the second half, the second-stage transformation of the motorcycle made people scream.
"So cool! This motorcycle is as cool as last year's Transformers!"
When the motorcycle strengthened by the Wind King's barrier appeared on the screen, all the audience began to applaud again.
The gloomy plot of the previous movie seemed to be swept away, and everyone's mood became better.
As a director, Nanaya knows exactly why FZ is so popular.
Simply giving out lunch boxes to the dead makes the plot of the movie too heavy and is not the core selling point of this work.
Perhaps such a plot will be praised by film critics, but how many movie tickets can these people buy?
Ordinary audiences don't care about any reflections on human nature or the significance of dialectical thinking.
Audiences were attracted to the cinema by the trailer of "Inferno", mainly for the excitement and thrills!
Nanaya has watched countless FZ-related video clips.
Excluding videos that introduce plots and are just silly.
Most videos using FZ materials will feature action scenes or images of characters at their most handsome.
This also indirectly reflects what ordinary people most want to see.
Therefore, Nanaya will definitely not be missing the plot related to this part.
At the end of the chase between Saber and Rider, the two sides had a head-on collision on a deserted road.
This is the second time Saber uses a Noble Phantasm in the movie, and she successfully destroys Rider's chariot.
Seeing the huge chariot disappear in the golden light, the audience burst into admiration again.
"I told you, Saber is the strongest Servant."
This is clearly the statement of a Saber fan.
"But Iskandar didn't use his full strength either."
Someone obviously held a different view. "If the emperor deploys the [King's Army], even Saber's holy sword won't be able to defeat so many enemies at once, right?"
"Hmm…"
The other party groaned and he didn't know how to refute him.
The human wave tactics of [King's Army] are indeed a bit shameless.
The movie has entered the middle stage at this point, and the Fourth Holy Grail War is slowly approaching its end.
However, the audience did not feel that the story was becoming clearer, but instead there was far more suspense than at the beginning of the movie.
For example, why did Rider suddenly abduct Irisviel?
What kind of actions did Kotomine Kirei take after killing his teacher and signing with Archer?
What actions will Matou Kariya take after being rescued by Kotomine Kirei?
Kiritsugu Emiya has already lost his assistant. Will he shake hands with Saber and regain mutual trust for the sake of the next battle?
But then the mystery was solved.
The one who abducted Iri was not Rider, but Berserker who was disguised as Rider.
This attack on the Emiya residence (although it is not called that name now) was a conspiracy of Kotomine Kirei from beginning to end.
This guy has completely fallen into the wrong path. Under the instigation of Gilgamesh, he began to follow his heart.
The desires and ambitions that had been suppressed in his heart were completely released.
Kotomine Kirei began to pursue his own "pleasure", but this was something extremely disgusting to most people.
If the previous act of killing the master was not enough for the audience to fully understand.
So when Kotomine Kirei set a trap for his collaborator Matou Kariya, the audience could really and clearly feel the true nature of this guy.
It can be explained very clearly, but such means are used.
The purpose is just to satisfy the twisted desires in one's heart.
He is no longer the silent young man who obeyed the arrangements of his elders at the beginning of the story.
Having completely become a villain, he now has only one last target - Emiya Kiritsugu.
This is the man Kotomine Kirei identified as his ultimate enemy and rival.
By the time the plot reaches this stage, most of the people who should die have already died.
There are only four Masters and four Servants left.
Most of the other people involved in this Holy Grail War are already dead.
Those who didn't die, such as Tohsaka Aoi, only had half their lives left.
To describe it using the popular chicken-eating game in the future, the Fourth Holy Grail War has now completely entered the final round.
For this final battle, Nanaya did not change Gen Urobuchi's idea and still adopted the two-by-two elimination system.
Saber versus Berserker;
Archer versus Rider;
Emiya Kiritsugu versus Kotomine Kirei.
The two rookie magicians, Weber and Matou Kariya, received a bye.
As the climax of the entire movie, Nanaya was of course carefully crafted.
In fact, by this point, the suspense of the FZ story has been almost solved.
Most viewers who knew the final ending also guessed the final result of the battle.
Saber and Archer had definitely won their respective wars.
But Nanaya also spent some time thinking about how to make this established fact interesting.
When the outcome of a movie has lost its suspense, how to mobilize the audience's emotions.
Nanaya thought about this question for a long time.
Finally, he decided to use the method of concentrating the conflicts as much as possible.
Nanaya is well aware that the pace of life is getting faster and faster and fast food culture has begun to rise.
The audience no longer has the patience they had in the past.
If today's audiences went back to 1993 to watch "Jurassic Park".
I believe many people don't have the patience to wait until the middle of the movie to see the dinosaurs.
Therefore, the pace of this final battle is much faster than the TV version in the previous life.
Even faster than when Nanaya first planned it.
The first thing that begins is the battle between two pairs of servants.
Rider and Archer officially began their battle after a short banquet.
Although in terms of absolute length, this battle is definitely shorter than the TV version which lasted nearly half an episode.
But the intensity is far beyond Urobuchi's original design.
After the two treasures belonging to the king, [The King's Army] and [The King's Treasure], collided.
Gilgamesh finally pulled out the ultimate weapon that was not shown in UBW - EA Peril Sword.
"Is this thing specifically used to destroy the barrier?"
Asuna muttered to herself as she looked at this drill-like object.
When she watched the English version before, she didn't hear the explanation about the sword clearly because the scene was too chaotic.
"So in UBW, after being cornered by Shirou Emiya, Gilgamesh wanted to use this thing to turn the tables."
Shiori Kaede also began to try to analyze: "But why didn't the opponent use it at the beginning in UBW?"
"It's obvious. This Golden is overconfident and looks down on others." Kiritani replied, shaking his shoulders.
Anyway, he didn't understand why the two people around him were so enthusiastic about the analysis. Isn't it just a movie?
[Perhaps, this is the helplessness of fans outside the circle? ]
Kaede Shiori actually agreed with his partner's remarks.
He nodded slowly: "So, now that Gilgamesh is serious, he is invincible."
"Why."
Asuna sighed. She already knew the outcome of this war.
But even after watching it a second time, she still sighed.
"Farewell, Great Emperor."
Asuna whispered as she let EA penetrate Iskandar's body.
Rider fought desperately, but was ultimately defeated by Archer's sword.
This outcome was already determined when Rider lost his army and charged towards Gilgamesh alone.
But even so, many viewers couldn't believe their eyes when Iskandar was actually defeated.
Washimine conducted a survey before the release of the film.
If we ignore the possibility of the Holy Grail being contaminated, which Servant do you most want to obtain the Holy Grail and fulfill your wish?
According to the results, apart from the most popular Saber, the second place is Rider Iskandar.
This king has a very unique charm among his fans.
Maybe he can't make everyone like him, but few people will hate this character.
Pop.
Pah pah.
Clap, clap, clap.
In the premiere theater, the audience began to applaud.
From a few people at the beginning, almost everyone in the audience joined in in the end.
This is the fans' heartfelt respect to this king who gallops across the battlefield, like this servant who only exists in the screen story.
Although it is an honor to lose, this sentence is often used to comfort losers.
But King of Conquerors Iskandar deserves it.
