Besides flashy fight scenes, what depth can they have?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Our animation contains a lot of thought and is educational. I believe it will definitely not lose to those guys in tights in terms of reputation.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bob Iger was a relatively traditional \"redneck\" at heart; both his style of doing things and his words were relatively aggressive.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Can had rubbed Disney's face in the dirt time and time again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bob Iger was simply in a state of impotent rage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"WALL-E\" was an excellent work, and he was confident that it could surpass \"Spider-Man\" in reputation.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Otherwise, he wouldn't have jumped into the fray at this time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He hoped to use this method to disparage, hoping that society would form a contempt for superhero movies, that public opinion would stand on his side, and that people would boycott Xu Can's movies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If these words were said 15 years later, they might still have had some effect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Marvel and DC's overall decline made the market very disgusted with superhero movies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But now, the parallel world was in the \"honeymoon period\" of superhero movies!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Before Xu Can even had time to respond, the vast number of movie fans took the lead in opening fire on Bob Iger online.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Is it possible that we watch movies just to have fun? What kind of thinking?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"'Spider-Man's' 'with great power comes great responsibility' isn't a brainless movie, right? They also explored some social crime issues.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I'm just going for Xu Can. Do you think two sentences can make me not watch it?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Xu Can's movies are beyond doubt. Where do you get the confidence to compare reputations?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"A dignified CEO, the perspective is too small.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Faced with such public opinion, Hollywood media was notoriously fond of causing trouble; they were like sharks smelling blood, participating one after another to blow things out of proportion.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bob Iger was portrayed by the media as \"Disney President blasts superhero movies,\" \"Disney declares war on Galaxy Entertainment,\" \"Disney CEO publicly discriminates against characters wearing tights\"...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Unsurprisingly, the media found Xu Can again, wanting to see what his reaction was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Can was really too lazy to deal with these guys; he was already very tired from acting as a time management master in Los Santos recently.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dealing with Stone, he had to pretend to be energetic to accompany Taylor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although he didn't need to drink water with goji berries, Xu Can still had to exercise to maintain his state outside of work.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Media and such—participating in it meant losing, giving traffic to others for no reason.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>So Xu Can just replied nonchalantly:\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"'WALL-E' is a good animation. I don't think 'Spider-Man' and 'WALL-E' are opponents; both movies can be watched together.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Hollywood can only develop more prosperously because of the blooming of a hundred flowers of genres.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I just happened to win the box office championship a few times; it's nothing worth showing off.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I hope to film works that are more outstanding than before and contribute characters that are more charming than before...\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once Xu Can's interview was published, the entire Hollywood peer group was moved.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He seemed not to have fought back directly, but in reality, his perspective was far higher than that of some Disney president.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bob Iger was still haggling over the box office of one or two movies.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Xu Can had already set his sights on the entire Hollywood!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A dignified giant CEO was actually outdone by a Chinese person who had just started out.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Anyone with a discerning eye could see who was higher and who was lower.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>What's more, Xu Can had subtly shaded Bob Iger; the several box office championships were almost all won by stepping on Disney.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The \"Pirates of the Caribbean\" they had high hopes for was never as good as Xu Can's works.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Now, there was no need to compare results; in the eyes of North American netizens, Bob Iger had become a clown in every aspect.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Under such public opinion, \"WALL-E\" was released first.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As an animation with an investment of $180 million, \"WALL-E's\" opening weekend box office of $62.5 million was already quite good.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But compared to Xu Can's box office, which was often over $100 million, the faces of Disney executives were a bit ugly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Fortunately, \"WALL-E's\" reputation was solid enough, with a 99% score on Rotten Tomatoes and a 9.1\u002F10 on IMDb!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>This reputation belonged to the stable performance of Pixar Studio, which finally made Bob Iger breathe a sigh of relief.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As long as \"Spider-Man 2's\" reputation was lower than \"WALL-E's\" later, he would still have something to say.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I don't believe it. Can a superhero movie's rating exceed 9 points?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bob Iger roared angrily.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As a result, his secretary weakly interjected from the side: \"Uh, 'The Dark Knight' is currently still 9.4, ranking second on IMDb.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Bob Iger was so angry he almost couldn't catch his breath.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for Xu Can, he was having a great time.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"WALL-E\" was a movie he liked very much in his past life. It was a pity that it wasn't introduced to the mainland market in his past life, so Xu Can had no chance to watch it on the big screen.\u003C\u002Fp>",1508,"2026-06-17T04:37:49.098Z","2026-06-17T04:40:43.045Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","42cdea53bd5fc51d31ec24e0d3f3a4894f828affa25f93eec7fdc74d82dc0223","entertainment-starting-as-spider-man-i-kiss-tayl-chapter-109","entertainment-starting-as-spider-man-i-kiss-tayl-chapter-107",319,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fentertainment-starting-as-spider-man-i-kiss-tayl-cover.jpg"]
