2nd Post: MARVEL MOVIES: THE PATH TO SUCCESS

Fifteen years ago, Marvel Studios would have gone into bankruptcy but now any Marvel movie can surpass a Harry Potter movie in movie franchise.

The Marvel movies have the 5 elements that makes a movie a great success. Firstly, they have good characters that are distinguishing from each other. Each character has a completely different personality from each other. Taking X-Men for example, Scott Summers AKA Cyclops is more of the straight-thinker and committed member of the group, Jean Grey the mutant is the protagonist of the squad, Logan AKA Wolverine is more of the loyal, strong-willed and self-sacrificing member and the Professor X is the intelligent and compassionate person who dedicate his life for a better world for the mutants. When watching the movies, the audience needs to relate themselves in these characters. Moreover, the movie plot should be definite and simple; no over-crowding the movie with tertiary characters. Furthermore, for a movie to be a success is the theme, the message behind each movie should be clear, the audience needs to understand the moral of the story without having a bad impression on it, for example the message behind the movie of Captain America is: “Can we only win over evil through morality and integrity, if we need to fight with it?” Also, each detail in the movie is crucial. It all started from the moment the script is being written, each shot, decoration, venue need to be considered. Lastly, the ending of a story is the key to the success of the movie. It is the end that will impact on the feedbacks of the audience: a bad ending always results to a bad comment.

The best two movies so far were Avenger: Infinity Wars and Avengers Endgame. When the movie Avengers Endgame was first released in the movie theatres in Mauritius, all the seats were booked for the first two weeks. The queue to the desk was at least 750 meters long and the movie theatre was not even opened. The movie was so intense that no-one talked from the start to the end except the scene where Iron Man died and some people were crying. A 3-hour movie with nobody moving, shifting or even murmuring comments throughout the movie. I want that kind of mixed emotions that my audience feel when watching one of the movies I produce. This is what really made me choose the path of being a producer for Marvel Studios, I want to revive the characters just like Stan Lee has done with his creations. I want to be just like Stan Lee when he created the spider-man who is alive in the hearts of his fans. One of my dream was to work alongside with Stan Lee but unfortunately, he is not part of this world but producing one of his work or even being part of the Marvel family would be an immense pleasure for my career of producer.
