“The live-action version of”Spider-Man” is scheduled for Christmas! Sony bets on popular Marvel characters!”

“Asian Spider-Man is coming! The trailer has been viewed more than 3 million times!”

“《Five highlights of”Spider-Man” and real predictions of the film’s box office!”

“Stan Lee: He is my Peter Parker. What about Asian actors?”

As the trailer of”Spider-Man” gradually heats up, online public opinion gradually ferments.

TV stations, offline theaters and other channels have also set up trailers to play, gradually attracting the attention of traditional media

《Los Santos Times””New York Times””Times””CNN News”》……

Many media have commented on this live-action version of”Spider-Man”.

Previously, there was a lot of controversy over the director’s casting.

As a yellow-skinned Chinese, Xu Can’s role as Spider-Man was resisted by Marvel fans.

After the trailer aired, the voice of resistance became much quieter.

With excellent results, some media gave positive reviews

《The Los Santos Times said:

“……Judging from the trailer, this live-action movie may be able to sweep away the past decline and open a new door for American comic movies.”

“Director Marc Webb, producer Avi Arad and Stan Lee were full of praise for starring Xu Can”

“Xu is the most spiritual actor I have ever seen, and he is the best Peter Parker – said Marvel founder Stan Lee”

“According to Sony Entertainment’s original plan,”Spider-Man” will be released in the summer of 2007……”

“However, the production progress is abnormally fast, and Sony Entertainment boldly decided to postpone the film until Christmas this year!”

“I believe that as the trailer says, this”Spider-Man” can bring you a shocking audio-visual enjoyment”

……

However, there are also many dissenting media outlets, such as the New York Times》

“Peter Parker is a high school student in Queens, New York, and a white boy! This has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the comic community!”

“It’s not that we are racist, the key is that Spider-Man’s character creation should be consistent with the original work. Asians playing Spider-Man are OOC and seriously deviate from the setting.”

“After some interviews, New York citizens are not interested in the Asian version of Spider-Man! This is a superhero that belongs to our Apple City, and the original work should be respected!”

“The trailer effect is indeed excellent, but as we all know… no matter how excellent the trailer is, it cannot have a positive correlation with the quality of the film”

“The essence of many movies is condensed into trailers, which greatly reduces the viewing experience of the main film.”

“In addition, the live-action version of comics is the hardest hit area for bad movies. Many film directors and well-known actors have publicly expressed their disapproval of the box office of”Spider-Man”.”

This is a polite question. Richard Newber, a well-known North American film critic, directly labeled”Spider-Man” as a bad movie.

“There is no doubt that this film will be a popcorn movie full of action scenes and special effects.”

“The masked heroes in the original comics will return to the big screen, allowing more people to see these ‘vigilantes’ punish evil and promote good, and replace the police in enforcing the law.”

“The most ironic thing is that this hero is Asian, played by Chinese Xu Can. Is this the justice the audience wants to see?”

This article was also published in the”New York Times” and triggered a series of discussions.

Therefore, the agent Happy quickly called Xu Can who was on vacation, fearing that this kind of public opinion would ferment and affect Xu Can’s reputation. It even affected the film’s box office.

When Xu Can received the call, he was much calmer than his agent.

“Happy, calm down. This kind of thing is no

[Go to read the novel on the site: Novels Knights] rmal and not a bad thing”

“ah? Isn’t that a bad thing?”

“Of course, free popularity is nothing if not used. Is the discussion more intense now than it was a few days ago?”

“this……”

Happy thought about it carefully, and it seemed that this was true.

《On the first day the trailer for”Spider-Man” went online, there was not much attention from the outside world, and its influence was limited to Marvel fans.

The results now seem to be out of the circle, allowing more people to participate in the discussion.

And the issue that has already caused controversy during the casting process will be

“”Should Spider-Man be played by an Asian?” was once again brought up to stir up the atmosphere.

Xu Can’s name has frequently appeared in major news media, and his photos have been constantly exposed.

Before the movie was released, Xu Can was already famous in Hollywood.

In fact, it was Xu Can’s suggestion to release the trailer on the online video website.

These days, YouTube was not paid attention to by the traditional big players in the early days.

Sony executives would not have thought of this method.

It was Xu Can’s way of feeding back the future online to offline. Brought to the parallel world, it seems to be working well now, and the popularity has already been raised.

“Let’s add another fire!”

Xu Can calmly took a sip of Coke.

“Happy, please help sue this film critic for racial discrimination. Then I’ll do some interviews with the media to talk about this matter.”

“Well, a reporter from the Los Santos Times happened to be looking for me.”

The two discussed for a while, and their agent Happy hung up the phone.

The next morning, the Los Santos media reported the news.

“In response to film critic Richard Newber’s public racial discrimination against Asian actor Can Xu, Xu Can’s agent has filed a lawsuit in court”

“Agent Happy Hogan said Richard should apologize to Xu Can. There are white people, black people, women, and even a pig in Spider-Man comics! Spider-Ham!”

“Peter Polk is also Spider-Man! Why can’t Xu Chan play the role?”

This question stopped the film critic Richard Newber, who also received a court summons.

He panicked and quickly accepted interviews with the media.

“I am not racist. I publicly apologize to Mr. Xu Can here. I am sorry. I personally have no problem with people of any color, race or creed!”

“In fact, the media has misunderstood. I just want to say that the casting of Asians in Spider-Man may offend fans, and the final box office and reputation of the film will not be very high.”

“I make a bold prediction here that the North American box office of the live-action version of”Spider-Man” will not exceed 200 million.”

《The production cost of”Spider-Man” was US$139 million, and a box office of US$200 million was equivalent to a serious loss.

The box office must be at least 300 million US dollars to barely make a loss.

Despite publicly apologizing to Xu Chan, Richard Newber is still not optimistic about the prospects of”Spider-Man”.

Except for the comic book community and the Los Santos Times, the mainstream views of other film industries are basically the same, and they also look down on Spider-Man.

After countless failures, they don’t believe that the controversial”Spider-Man” can break the curse of the live-action version.

Box office forecasts range from US$100 million to US$250 million.

Under this kind of public opinion,”Sister Stone” Emma Stone, who is busy filming”The King of Rock” said in an interview:

“Spider-Man’s North American box office will exceed 500 million! I’m pretty confident about this movie!”

“Xu Can’s Spider-Man will definitely impress you!”

As public opinion continues to ferment, the controversy about”Spider-Man” continues to heat up.

The release date is getting closer and closer!
