Introduction:

After regaining the beloved "Black Pearl" and settling the cursed Captain Barbossa, the charming Captain Jack (Johnny Depp) did not live a quiet and carefree life. This time, he ushered in a more bizarre enemy-the legendary immortal david jones (bill nighy)! This fearsome devil in the depths of the ocean will ride the wind and waves in his "flying Dutchman" and ask Captain Jack for a blood debt. If Jack can't find a strange way to escape the robbery, I'm afraid he will face the fate of being enslaved and cursed forever! In addition, the blacksmith will turner (Orlando Bloom) and the beautiful Elizabeth (keira knightley), who parted ways with Jack and were busy holding the wedding, are once again involved in this maritime struggle. When they heard that Jack was in trouble, they resolutely decided to help him. With the fierce fighting between the two sides, Jack's side fell into many crises: the savage aborigines in the wilderness, the unstoppable ghost Jones, and all his friends were on the verge of fate, even dying. But to everyone's surprise, Will's father, Bill Turner (Stellan Skarsgard), who thought he had been dead for many years, appeared strangely at a critical moment and became a turning point in the overall situation. ...

Behind the scenes production:

Smart Disney people all know that the box office miracle created by the first film should be attributed to the novel pirate theme, eye-catching three leading roles and more important film special effects. Therefore, in the new film, on the basis of ensuring other necessary basic conditions, we must once again ensure and improve the film's special effects level and strong appeal to the audience.

Because "raiders of the lost ark" has more mythical, fantastic and supernatural elements than the previous one, the burden on the special effects artists is also heavy. In fact, most of the extra budget of 80 million yuan was spent on building strange backgrounds and creating magical environments that are equally real and illusory. Especially david jones and his crew, the new roles are full of fantastic colors, and most of them need to be shaped by visual effects. Moreover, almost all the special effects props on "Man-eating Island" were designed and produced by special effects personnel in the later period. ...

Shooting tidbits:

Jerry Bruckheimer, a former producer of "The End of the World" and "Pearl Harbor", is confident about this. "The money spent on location, packaging the second and third parts may save a lot; But in fact, we spend more money, because we have to make sure to shoot with the original team, and each of them has his own shooting plan. If you only shoot one film this time, you will have to wait for three or four years, and then you can gather everyone when you shoot the third film. " Director Gore Wobinski specially consulted "drama expert" Peter Jackson. After telling the history of continuous shooting from a painful experience, the latter deeply realized how difficult it is to rebuild and modify after stopping shooting for a period of time, so he strengthened his determination to finish the second and third films in one breath. However, during the intensive shooting process, the film encountered many events, large and small.

The second and third episodes were shot mainly in the Bahamas and Dominica in the West Indies. Dominica, known as the "Pearl of the Caribbean", has beautiful scenery and pleasant climate, which not only helps the film to show a strong Caribbean style, but also brings relief to the busy crew. Unexpectedly, during the filming process, the crew had an unexpected conflict with local residents. After careful investigation, Disney personnel chose to shoot Captain Jack on an island called Bataka in Dominica, where he was caught by aborigines and strung vegetables and fruits for baking. Such a common story of Hollywood adventure has aroused strong dissatisfaction among Bataka residents, and their patriarchs believe that this scene has twisted their ancestors into cannibals. ...

Main lineup:

Three years ago, a Hollywood alien and two British "children" pushed an old pirate movie that no one was optimistic about to the top three in the annual box office list. If three years ago, people just glanced at it out of curiosity, then three years later, the eager expectation for this sequel became extremely clear. All we care about is the beautiful girl named Elizabeth, the little blacksmith who is changing from an elf to an elf, and the strangely charming Captain Jack. In 2003, Johnny Depp ushered in a bright future. The role of Jack in Pirates of the Caribbean suddenly turned him into a box office superstar, a acting genius who had been banned by the academy, and was nominated for the Oscar for the first time. However, his luck should be largely attributed to meeting the equally crazy Wobinski. The enthusiastic response afterwards proved that the two lunatics were extremely clever. ...

A brief review of movies:

It swept the summer box office three years ago, and in the following time, the accumulated income was as high as $654.38+0.2 billion. "Brilliant record" seems unable to describe the unprecedented momentum of pirates of the Caribbean. As the most successful film series adapted from amusement facilities in Disney's history, the sequel story happened to these sea troublemakers, bearing the eager expectation of hundreds of millions of cuckoo birds around the world, which became Disney's greatest hope and chip in 2006. In fact, even if the first movie brought such a huge surprise, few companies dared to put all their eggs in one basket like Disney-throwing out 200 million yuan to create a sequel "raiders of the lost ark". This is not uncommon. It's really amazing to see its box office feedback before it is released, and then throw out the third film "Unknown Waters" with 200 million shots. You know, this move not only bears high costs and risks, but also drags the whole crew into the devil's shooting schedule in the dark, but Disney people use actions to announce to the world: What is full of confidence!

The script of the film and Fage's changeable style are regarded as top secret, and only Fage and Johnny are known at present. Orlando Depp? Bloom, who will embark on an adventure in hell, will fight with a group of magical pirates.

Because the special effects scenes in Pirates of the Caribbean 3 are amazing, Fage will stay in Los Angeles for a month or two, shoot many important indoor special effects scenes, and then move to the Bahamas in the Caribbean. Because the local summer vacation is hot, it is not suitable for filming, but it is cooler after September.

Pirates of the Caribbean: The Ultimate Battle of Pirates of the Caribbean will be released on the 24th. Yesterday, Chow Yun Fat and his sister-in-law went to Disneyland to promote the film. The United States specially arranged a grand premiere on the night of Fage's birthday 18. He hopes that painting in movies will break the box office record as his biggest birthday present.

Yesterday, Brother Fage appeared in Disney and was immediately discovered by tourists. Unfortunately, the security guard followed him all the way, so he couldn't get close to the citizens, so he just waved and said hello. In the meantime, Fage also happened to meet an old neighborhood that he hadn't seen for more than ten years. When he first arrived at Disney, he said happily that Mrs. Kay was on a tourist boat in Forest River.

Speaking of the first two episodes of Thief of the Devil, it is very popular in Hong Kong. The recently released Spider-Man 3 was so powerful that Brother Fa smiled and pointed out that he was not the protagonist, urging everyone to ask Johnny Depp. At the box office, I also believe that it is difficult for Star Boy Kung Fu to break the record of more than 60 million, but it is good to want 50 million. As the film "Jia" is more than two hours long, the producer plans to add 15 yuan. Knowing that the pre-sale of the film was ideal, Fage was very satisfied and said, "The extra 15 yuan is from Chow Yun Fat!" Brother Fage blew himself up while filming. When he was dying, he broke his neck and accidentally pulled off his beard. WeariNG "smoking teeth" to read dialogue also makes him often ng.

He also said that he could cooperate with Johnny Depp, and Fage praised the other party for being very involved in the play, and it was almost impossible to tell the difference between the play and the play. In addition, when talking about the suicide of Huang Jialiang, a former producer of Wireless, due to depression, Fage said that he had cooperated with the other party, but he was not familiar with it. Brother Fage understands that Hong Kong people are under great pressure, but he should not commit suicide. If they are ill, they should be treated as soon as possible.

Jack, the captain of the Black Pearl in Pirates of the Caribbean 2, was swallowed by a sea monster, and his two friends, will turner and Elizabeth, vowed to go to the ends of the earth to find Jack. So, which side of the world did they go to? In connection with Pirates of the Caribbean 3, Chow Yun Fat will play the famous pirate Zhang Baozai in the late Qing Dynasty, so the story of Pirates of the Caribbean 3 is likely to take place in the waters of China.

Captain Barbossa, the evil leader of the Caribbean, became an ally and helped the little blacksmith and his fiancee save the funny captain Jack. The terror ghost ship "Flying Dutchman" controlled by the East India Trading Company and its mastermind Davey Jones wreaked havoc in the seven oceans. The end of the war is coming, which is not only related to their life and death and property losses, but also closely related to the development of pirates and the future of freedom. Anyway, let's sail the Black Pearl left by Captain Jack across the wild unknown sea and go to the "other side of the world" to deal with the cunning China pirate Shao Feng first! It is said that Shao Feng will be one of the key figures to decide their fate.

Hide the truth behind the scenes

18th century pirates-rock stars

Pirates of the Caribbean series is 100% original. Screenwriters terry rossio and Ted Elliott once created a fairytale fantasy world in Shrek, and their inspiration came from an interesting classic amusement facility in Disney theme park ... Indeed, there was no decent pirate film since Crimson Pirate (1952). It's time to re-establish a classic position for this kind of film.

However, the scripts produced by rossio and Eliot are relatively "formal". Although the theme is obscure and sharp-obviously not a children's fantasy adventure drama, Captain Jack in the script is not as eccentric as on the big screen. Of course, thanks to director Gregor Verbinski and starring Johnny Depp, although they don't know whether it is feasible to make this role so crazy and weird, they still took the risk together. Captain Jack combines some characteristics of the rock singer keith richards and the famous cartoon character "Pepe Le Piu" with French accent: unstable life, wild personality, doing whatever he wants, and chaotic contradictions ... Johnny Depp said that he did not simply imitate Richards' actions, but grasped their essence, which was a beautiful and lazy self-confidence. Thick eye shadow and beaded hair are all signs of "freedom"-the word "pirate" stands for "absolute freedom" in Depp's mind, and it feels like a rock star in18th century. So he turned Captain Jack into a shrewd adventurer, with a relaxed and happy, non-stop smooth tone, feminine and cunning words like a woman, and wobbly walking-all of which made Disney executives chatter endlessly, saying that Depp could ruin this expensive movie by himself and laughing at his Captain Jack for looking like a homosexual.

However, Pirates of the Caribbean 1 & The huge box office revenue brought by "2" finally silenced these guys, and Johnny Depp was nominated for the best actor Oscar for his innovative performance ... and then the film became the best-selling DVD in the world. Until today, four years later, the by-product of this film still earned a lot of money for the company, with a cumulative amount of $6,543.85 billion. I believe dick cook, the chairman of Disney, must be very beautiful. He is giggling in the quilt. No one can deny that "Captain Jack" is one of the biggest factors for the film's success, but Gregor Verbinski also said that "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" will only suffer the fate of "sinking" if it relies too much on Johnny Depp's personal performance, so he filled it with countless roles to share Depp's performance burden. Important people from the first two episodes were present, as well as pirates from all over the world, beautiful and mysterious witches, and East India.

"Piracy" has become a hot topic.

When the box office of Pirates of the Caribbean broke through 1 100 million, it went straight to 300 million and finally reached 600 million ... Disney executives couldn't sit still, so they immediately called the gold medal producer Jerry Bruckheimer and asked to put the sequel on the agenda as soon as possible. Even so, at first, Disney adopted a wait-and-see attitude of "patting and watching", and the scenes set in Universal Studios were torn down and thrown away. The reconstruction of these scenes alone has wasted tens of millions of dollars for Disney Company, and it will take at least three or four years to get enough busy people like Johnny Depp, Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley. By then, will the wages of these three popular fried chickens rise? So Brooke Hammer immediately decided on the continuous shooting plan for the second and third episodes. It is said that it is less than two months before the end of the last episode, and the third episode has already started shooting in the Bahamas. You can imagine the pressure on producers, directors, actors and staff, because when the third episode started shooting, director Gregor Verbinski didn't even have a complete script.

With an investment of more than 300 million yuan and the particularity of two episodes of continuous shooting, Pirates of the Caribbean 2&; "3" provides an excellent job opportunity for the Hollywood extras union. Before the public recruitment of actors, more than 7,000 people had signed up ... The grand occasion of a sea of people was unprecedented, and it was also a spectacular sight that Hollywood had never seen before. Almost all the extras strive to become "pirates", and the generous and stable remuneration is one of the reasons. The film will also go to Saint Vincent's Caribbean Island for on-the-spot shooting and work in the play. I believe this is everyone's dream of a happy life.

However, the crew responsible for selecting actors put forward very strange requirements for those who came to apply for "One Piece": they are between 18-50, either thin or skinny, and it is best to get their teeth in and out. If they are still squinting, it will be perfect. The fiercer they are, the more they need long hair and beards ... so, in order to be "quilt", they also try their best to lose weight. In fact, they should be able to guess the "bad intention" behind these harsh conditions. This is to save the crew a makeup fee. Otherwise, without hundreds of extras, the money will not be spent.

Singapore 300 years later

In the process of film production, apart from the brilliant CGI technology used to fill the screen in the later period, the most noteworthy thing is the great work of the art team, among which rick heinrichs, the artist who designed the set for Pirates of the Caribbean 2, contributed greatly. In old Hollywood, the artist was called the artistic director, but after years of development, this position has become the head of all the art departments behind the film, working with the director and photographer to grasp the concrete embodiment of the whole film on the screen. In other words, Heinrich can be responsible for selecting people he is satisfied with to join the design team, but in the end, he will be responsible for everyone's work, including artistic director, illustrator and modeler. He said: "A large-scale action science fiction movie with picture support like Pirates of the Caribbean 3 is always a big challenge for me, because this kind of movie always involves more delicate and detailed scenery, including location. Looking at all the scenes in the film, I am most satisfied with the part of Singapore in the film, because we didn't go to Southeast Asia to shoot a scene, but completely rebuilt a' Singapore' on the set. "

"Singapore" designed by Ricky Heinrich is the most important new scene in Pirates of the Caribbean 3: "1What should Singapore look like in the early 8th century? This really hurts my brain, because there are no real historical documents for our reference, and modern Singapore has changed its appearance 300 years ago because of its rapid development, so I can only imagine it out of thin air. Because of Singapore's geographical location and historical changes, we went to some cities in China and took some pictures, which can be used for comparison. Then we considered some possible influences of Southeast Asian culture, and finally restored Singapore 300 years ago. In the film, you will see a characteristic country with a style between China and Malaysia. "

However, Ricky Heinrich seems to have forgotten that there is a new actor in Pirates of the Caribbean 3, who should know Singapore better than anyone else in the crew, because his wife is a Singaporean-yes, that person is Chow Yun Fat. But Heinrich explained why he didn't ask Chow Yun Fat for advice when designing: "I don't want Chow Yun Fat to feel that I offended him because of this, so I need to explain. Although his wife is from Singapore, believe me, how can a modern person know anything about his motherland 300 years ago? So I specially reserved this mystery for him when I designed it. I believe that Chow Yun Fat will be surprised by the mystery and aura contained in this set when he sees this film. "

Ricky Heinrich arranged the scene of "Singapore" in Universal Picture12 Studio. He hoped that the style here would be: anyone who walks in will have a feeling of going back 300 years ... "Singapore" is Heinrich's most satisfactory and proud scenery, because there is very little design time left for him, so in this process, Fortunately, in his view, the designed "Singapore" is at least beautiful: "We will arrange a huge water tank in the studio, because the island country of Singapore is inextricably linked with water. As for architectural design, it combines the wooden house supported on the water with the brick house based on the ground and stone, which is the perfect fusion of the two styles. The most ridiculous scenery here belongs to the bathhouse. We have added the mechanical principle, so we can really heat the water here and then transport it to the bathhouse with bamboo tubes. Director Gore Weibinsky told me that because this is a gathering place for pirates, he hoped that the bathhouse would give people a feeling of evil and immorality, and at the same time, he mocked the existing hot spring culture. So I designed it not only to have a bathtub, but also to have mushrooms around it, which is very ridiculous. "

In fact, Ricky Heinrich himself really wants to go to Singapore for a field trip. Although he didn't make it in the end, it didn't really affect his scenery: "I don't think I missed anything, because Singapore has lost its shadow 300 years ago after hundreds of years of baptism." Even if we do go, it won't help the design much. " Heinrich has designed countless sets for two Pirates of the Caribbean, but he is extremely satisfied with this part of Singapore because it is more representative in the film. Through Captain Jack's erratic eyes, you can see what it might have looked like 300 years ago: "Singapore is not only the name of a country, but also the name of a city. However, in the film, it has been given a unique meaning, representing a completely different living environment and rules, belonging to the jurisdiction of the East India Trading Company, which is the' other side of the world' mentioned in the film. The third episode focuses on the end of the golden age of pirates. Because of the influence of global trade, there are new rules and new orders at sea, and we will reproduce the key features of that era through' Singapore'. "

Because it is the second or third episode of continuous shooting, you can enjoy the scenery conveniently, so the main location shooting of Pirates of the Caribbean 3 was solved together as early as Pirates of the Caribbean 2. In this way, the main shooting work of the third episode was almost completely completed in the studio, and Ricky Heinrich also simulated the high seas scenery of the Bahamas with a water tank, which was almost fake.

The ship used for sailing is actually a fake.

Interceptor-a fast, pointed sailboat, modified from the real Mrs. Washington, but it is too old to run. It belongs to the Royal Navy Fleet, and its captain is James Norrigton. The first episode is Elizabeth's marriage partner. The second episode took away Davey Jones's heart, and this episode is still evil. Keira knightley described the interceptor as a ship made of matchsticks, and even the slightest ripple on the water would make it shake.

"Edinburgh Trade"-the only real ship that can start but can't sail, especially for "mutiny on the bounty" starring 1962 Marlon Brando, is an antique shooting prop with a background, belonging to a British merchant ship, and its appearance is very classic.

The Black Pearl, one of the most important pirate ships in the film, is almost the root of all Captain Jack's nightmares. It looks spectacular and unusual, but in fact it is just an "empty shelf" and can only sail with the help of tugboats. In this episode, "Black Pearl" is a new look. Although the setting of the scene and the arrangement of items are exactly the same as those in the first and second episodes, they have been completely transformed and some details in the cabin have been strengthened. Just like Captain Jack's lounge, many wooden furniture are made of expensive peach blossoms, and there is a glass skylight in the center of the ceiling ... at least it is not as fragile and ready as when shooting the first episode. Even so, Captain Jack was ashamed to admit that he had lost the boat again.

"Flying Dutchman"-another important ship besides "Black Pearl". This is a ghost ship, and its name comes from the Dutch descent of its captain Davey Jones. Built in the sea near the Bahamas, although the ship is full of exquisite hand carvings, it is useless. At best, it is just a container that can float on the water. Artists deliberately make the deck dirty and old, and there are marine crustaceans, rusty cannons and molds everywhere ... just like a shipwreck that has been at the bottom of the sea for hundreds of years, it can almost be integrated with seawater.
