Chapter 1371 1473. The Crimes of Grindelwald

Chapter 1371 1473. The Crimes of Grindelwald

The 1,200-seat theater was packed, and when the host came on stage, there were all kinds of discussions from the audience.

Because of the good reputation of the previous film, everyone had high expectations for this sequel.

The first part of "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" can be said to be a great success, perfectly filling the emptiness of Harry Potter fans caused by the end of the Harry Potter series.

In the words of Harry Potter fans, it is the original magic style, even more interesting and exciting than the Harry Potter series.

"Last time I went to the UK, Ms. Rowling invited me to dinner. After dinner, she mentioned you more than once, and she felt sorry that you didn't take the next work." Nina suddenly said in the box.

"Director, why don't you want to take the third one? I feel that you shot it very well, even Yates is not as good as you."

"I'm just not interested." Nie Wei answered casually.

Nina was speechless. This reason was too strong, and she couldn't find a reason to persuade him anymore.

Joseph gently pulled her hand aside, signaling her not to say anything more. He knew Nie Wei better and knew that if Nie Wei hated something, no one could persuade him.

So even though he knew it would be better if Nie Wei came to shoot the next sequel, Joseph never persuaded him, because he knew it was useless.

Nina might have been asked by Rowling, but it was okay to say this once. If she really kept persuading him, it would easily cause Nie Wei's disgust.

Joseph naturally didn't want his girlfriend to be hated by his boss.

Nie Wei turned around and saw the two holding hands and showing their affection: "Tsk, are you two together? When did it happen?"

"It was when we were filming the third part in the UK." Joseph admitted with a smile, but Nina blushed a little and wanted to pull her hand out, but Joseph held it tighter.

Nie Wei has never had any restrictions on the love affairs of his artists. Even if they are idol artists, as long as you talk secretly and don't get caught by the media, the company will let it go. Of course, if you are caught by the media and cause unpredictable consequences, then these idol stars will naturally have to pay for it.

After all, traffic artists are the product of fan economy, so even for their own careers, at least a fake "breakup statement" should be made.

After all, it is enough to calm the anger of fans and make them really feel that their brothers and sisters (sons and daughters) still belong to them.

Even if the smart ones can guess the truth, they are probably willing to immerse themselves in this dream and don't want to wake up.

As for Hollywood, let alone, they have never been secretive about love affairs, let alone normal couples, even polyamorous relationships dare to be torn openly.

Why should Nie Wei care about this situation, and there is no way to care.

"Congratulations to you two, I hope to attend your wedding one day." Nie Wei thought that blessing would be enough.

"Of course, we discussed it when we were together, and we hope you can be the godfather of the child." Joseph said, and Nina beside him also looked at Nie Wei expectantly.

But Nie Wei waved his hand and refused: "I don't believe in religion."

Hearing this answer, Nina's eyes flashed with disappointment. You know, in the West, the relationship between godfather and godchild is extraordinary. If there is such a relationship, then her future children will be taken care of by Nie Wei and will definitely achieve something in the future.

Unfortunately, Nie Wei refused outright, leaving no room for negotiation. This kind of thing is not easy to force, it can only be a matter of willingness.

"Then can you be our witness?" Joseph was also disappointed, but he quickly cheered up and continued to ask.

"Let me be the witness? Although I am your boss, am I a little young to be a witness?" This time Nie Wei did not refuse outright.

Joseph was delighted when he heard that there was a chance, and he said quickly: "How could it be? You are the director I respect, and you are also the boss who nurtured my growth. You are the same to Nina, so it is more appropriate for you to be the witness for us."

"If you think it is okay, I can do it too." Nie Wei replied with a smile. He has never been a witness before, so it should be quite interesting.

Finally getting Nie Wei's guarantee, Nina and Joseph also smiled happily.

"It seems that you get along very well, and you have reached the stage of talking about marriage." Nie Wei looked at the two people leaning on each other and smiled.

Nina also smiled and replied: "Boss, Joseph and I have agreed that we will prepare for the wedding after the third part is finished. I can't wait to put on the wedding dress."

"Well, it can be seen that you are very happy. Joseph is a good man and he is worthy of your trust." Nie Wei also praised Joseph by the way.

"Boss, how can I be a good man? I am actually a bad man." Joseph was very dissatisfied with Nie Wei's praise.

Because he thinks good men are the kind that are bullied, and only bad men are attractive.

"OK, you are a bad man, that's enough, please shut up, the movie is starting." Nie Wei rolled his eyes, this guy doesn't understand good or bad words.

Seeing Nie Wei's impatience, Joseph opened his mouth and was ready to say a few words for himself as a "bad man", but now he gave it up, but still showed a self-righteous smirk to Nina on the side, and naturally got a look of disgust.

The plot of "Fantastic Beasts 2" is completely inherited from the previous one.

Starting from the prison life after Grindelwald was captured, the audience was immediately excited by the exciting plot of escaping from prison.

Moreover, the appearance of young Dumbledore also caused cheers from Harry Potter fans, especially the relationship between Dumbledore and Grindelwald, which stimulated countless rotten girls to scream.

In the subsequent plot, the audience also found that Credence, the ‘Obscura’ who was thought to have died in the first part, was not dead, and Grindelwald and Newt also began to look for this Obscurus, one for his own ambition, and the other for the peace of the wizarding world.

The destructive power of the ‘Obscura’ has been fully demonstrated in the first part, and the entire Big Apple City is about to be demolished by this ‘Obscura’.

The story continues, and the appearance of Queenie and Jacob gave many audiences great comfort.

The most regrettable thing for the audience in the previous film is undoubtedly the separation of Jacob and Queenie who have lost their memory. Although the two met in the bakery at the end of the movie, the plot was not explained clearly. It is an open ending, leaving too many thoughts for the audience.

Fortunately, in the second film, this seemingly regrettable thing finally ushered in a perfect ending.

"It's great, Jacob and Queenie are still together, I am satisfied to see this result." The audience just sighed for less than two minutes, and this good mood was ruined.

Jacob did not agree to Queenie's proposal because of his relationship.

You know, when fans saw Queenie take the initiative to propose to Jacob, they were so excited that they almost shed tears. For them, Queenie is too courageous and touching. Girls always have inexplicable expectations for such things that they can't do.

But what is the result?

"Jacob, that fat guy, Queenie has proposed to him, but he is still hesitating. I really want to kick him, no, kick him ten thousand times!"

"Brother, you have a face of strength, so don't be an idol drama. What is this? I can't accept the reason for rejection at all."

The audience was angry. Who made the plot not go in the direction they imagined?

It's true that the old saying is true, what is the abuse? What is the pursuit? Anyway, when the audience saw Jacob regretfully chasing Queenie with Newt, they all felt relieved.

The movie also changed the map at this time, from the UK to the romantic city of Paris.

As Jacob and Newt flew to the romantic city to chase his wife, the camera immediately switched to a circus. Credence was hiding in this circus, and Nagini, the snake girl played by Li Binbin, was also an actor in this circus.

Watching the 15-second whip dance of Nagini played by Li Binbin on the big screen, Nie Wei nodded with great satisfaction.

This was his selfish desire to give Li Binbin a chance to show himself.

Otherwise, this role would have too few scenes. The total cut was only more than four minutes, including a group performance.

Of course, fewer scenes does not mean that it is not exciting. The scene where Nagini played by Li Binbin turned into a snake really shocked many viewers.

Although it was only a few seconds of footage, Nie Wei knew how much hard work Li Binbin put in behind it.

Because her waist was injured, and this was not an ordinary waistbend, she could not use the assistance of her hands, because Nie Wei wanted to wrap his hands around his body, so that he would feel more like a snake, so this scene relied entirely on the actor's own waist strength. Nie Wei had already found a substitute for Li Binbin, a Beijing dance actor.

But in the end, after trying several times, Li Binbin decided to do it herself.

This also allowed Nie Wei to shoot this scene in one shot, and to give this scene a variety of close-up and close-up shots without hesitation, which also brought a full shock to the audience.

After Nagini turned into a snake, she attacked the audience and caused a riot in the circus, and she and Credence also took advantage of the chaos to escape. During this process, Credence, who had always wanted to know his life experience, was about to fulfill his wish, but because of the pursuers, he involuntarily stimulated his Obscurus, and as a result, the nanny who seemed to be the only one who knew about it was affected.

The nanny did not survive, and the clue was cut off.

The camera switched to Paris again at this time, and the protagonists met a mysterious man named Yusuf Kama, an African magician, and his target seemed to be the Obscurus.

Newt and Jacob still got clues about Queenie, but at this time Queenie had been taken away by Grindelwald, and seemed to have been bewitched by him, and Tina had completely lost contact with Queenie.

"Queenie won't really turn from love to hate and become a villain, right? Don't be so cliché."

"No, no, but I'm a little worried."

"If I see Queenie really turn evil, I will definitely give this movie a zero when I go back, a very dissatisfied zero!"

Queenie can be said to be the most popular character in this movie. This woman has all kinds of styles. This woman is smart and brave. Whether facing enemies or lovers, she shows courage that far exceeds many ordinary women.

Such a character can not only be loved by men, but also by women.

So Queenie is also the character with the most female fans, more than the male protagonist Newt.

In Nie Wei's opinion, this has a lot to do with the plot. The love between Newt and Tina is like a pair of happy enemies. They started out fighting and then became a natural thing. In general, they didn't give the audience too much surprise. It felt like they just ate a very sweet candy.

But the emotional drama between Jacob and Queenie was very impactful.

A Muggle and a magician, there was originally a barrier of identity. One was a beautiful woman with all kinds of charm, and the other was just a fat Muggle fat man. This was another gap. If Newt and Tina were a perfect match, then Queenie and Jacob were really separated by thousands of mountains and rivers.

But the two people who seemed to have no intersection fell in love as soon as they met, and they were attracted to each other and fell in love.

The process was so ridiculous and tortuous, which naturally attracted the audience more.

Then the Ministry of Magic, which is never liked by Harry Potter fans, came out to ask for criticism again. This group of old men who have nothing to do and are looking for trouble ran to Hogwarts and questioned Dumbledore why he allowed Newt, who should have been restricted from leaving the country, to find the Obscurial.

Among the officials accompanying the Ministry of Magic, one was actually the fiancée of Newt's brother, named Rita. In the end, Rita took the initiative to ask to go to Paris to find Newt. Of course, she was not looking for trouble, but just wanted to protect her brother.

Newt, Tina and Rita who came over formed a team and found clues in the French Ministry of Magic. On the other side, Credence, Nagini, Queenie and others also found the same clues.

And in this place, Grindelwald was holding a grand gathering of black magicians.

This is the most classic scene in the movie, and it is also the highlight moment for Depp to show the charm of the character. The huge cemetery became Grindelwald's temporary parliament hall. The circular steps were full of black magicians. As the silver-haired Grindelwald appeared in a tuxedo, he walked to the center of the hall and opened his arms.

All the dark wizards stood up at the same time, applauding and cheering.

At this moment, Grindelwald's B-style was fully played, and the female audiences were fascinated.

Depp, who was sitting in the front row, was very satisfied with himself when he saw this segment. He also admitted in his heart that Nie Wei was indeed a great director. The camera switching, whether it was the capture of his expression or the reaction of the audience, was all in place and perfect.

Of course, he admitted it, but he didn't want to work with Nie Wei again from the bottom of his heart.
