Chapter 907 Film Reviews and Responses (Part 2)
The busy work continued until the lunch break. Chen Huai and his colleagues finished ordering takeout, and finally remembered that there was something left to read.
The page that automatically popped up on his phone solved his difficulty in making a choice. He started by reading the latest movie review by x-on:爱电影的小Han.
"
Let me start with this: I always feel that after writing this film review, the merits I have accumulated this week are gone... #Laughter
As the title suggests, "Scale Man" implements Yuan Xiao's style as always. Starting from the third round of "Empty Monument", Yuan Xiao has been good at using satire to create "difficult to calm down" one after another. And "Scale Man" has to be said to be the masterpiece of satire in Yuan Xiao's works so far.
From the evolutionary truth revealed in the latter part of the film, we can know that the condition for becoming a scale person is a "strong desire". As for the content and size of the wish, it is directly related to the evolutionary direction and strength of the scale person.
Based on this, let's look back at "The Scaled Man" again. From the first subplot at the beginning, the joke of hell appears.
Cheng Ying, who hates scaly people with her boyfriend Lu Qiang, is irritated by the little things in life. When Shu Zhen from the milk tea shop ran out, Cheng Ying was directly shocked.
At this moment, Cheng Ying was annoyed, frightened, and angry, and her emotions and desires reached their peak. She was probably thinking, "It's so disgusting. Why don't you just die soon?"
Then she herself became a scaly person... # covering face laughs and cries
(Insert a "Man and God" emoticon here)
[God: What do you think of scale people? ]
[Cheng Ying: So disgusting! Everyone deserves to die! ]
[God: Very good, now you are also a human being. ]
[Cheng Ying:? ]
Next, Lu Qiang.
He believed that the Angry Scales were all anti-social psychopaths and treated his girlfriend Cheng Ying like a "baby". However, when he found out that Cheng Ying had also become a scale, he was the first to jump away and kept repeating "Don't cry" and "Don't cry". Don't run around." The implication is "Don't infect me."
After reversing his position later, Lu Qiang knelt directly in front of Cheng Ying and kowtowed repeatedly, asking his "treasure" to "give him a little blood."
(Insert a four-frame comic-style emoticon here)
[This is the human world now! ]
[Lu Qiang: Don’t cry! Bodily fluids are contagious! ]
[This is the era of scale people! ]
[Lu Qiang: Woo woo woo, baby, give me some blood, please! ]
And corresponding sarcastic jokes abound in Linren.
The sudden change of status clearly shows many things. Not everyone can still maintain their true feelings after having privileges. For example:
(Another four-frame emoticon package)
[This is the human world now! ]
[Scale Man: This is not fair, I am so miserable and I want to fight! I am a warrior! ]
[This is the era of scale people! ]
[Scale Man: Hahahahaha I want to carry out my obscenity to the end! (Touch belt)]
Of course, there are some classic plots here. For example, under the pressure of survival, human beings refuse to believe Rui's refutation of rumors and firmly believe that "if you don't give us blood, you will kill us."
And Pan Hong’s line can be regarded as a joke from hell:
"How anxious you are now to become a Scale Man, how anxious the Scale Man was to be cured in the first place!"
The lethality of these words makes me want to say that single-celled organisms are indeed the strongest ones # Cover your face and cry with laughter. What a heartbreaking sentence under the straightforward brain circuit.
Now that we are talking about Pan Hong, who has been criticized by many viewers, I think there is no need to say more about his ironic plot, I believe everyone can see it.
(Small four-frame comic expression pack)
[A: A new scale man has appeared. ]
[Pan Hong: It’s best to receive treatment! (encouraging smile)]
[A: The new scale person is your sister. ]
[Pan Hong: Smile solidified.jpg]
(Another small four-frame comic expression pack)
[A: New energy weapons! ]
[Pan Hong: Oh! (Inspire star eyes)]
[A: Made by scale people. ]
[Pan Hong: Lost Color.jpg]
And the treatment process of what is called a medical base is actually an experimental base:
[Nurse: You need to get serious first (smiling)]
[Still a nurse: Pick up the reagent bottle with the word "Scale" printed on it]
Okay, now it's the turn of Yan Bing, whom I hate deeply. Not much to say, it’s enough for everyone to just look at the emoticons.
(A person is giving a speech in the picture)
[Me: Guardians will never give up on any citizen! (confidence thumbs up)]
[It’s still me: The finger-scale species will not be spared from being alive to being blown to ashes. (Bright smile)]
(Beautiful people stand in front of the explosion site)
[There may be a major breakthrough in medical measures for scaly people.jpg]
And the line that I boldly predict will become one of the popular memes on the Internet:
I, Yan Bing, hate sanctimonious hypocrites the most in my life.jpg
As for those people who were successfully incited by Yan Bing, especially the humans who chose to attach themselves to the scale people, the expressions on their faces and their self-deceptive attitude were also a sharp irony.
Because things are actually not at the end of the road.
Rui was a leader who advocated peace and did not abandon any member of the migrating team. However, some humans have taken refuge in the scale people because "it is more comfortable to be carried by the scale armor than to squeeze into the container together" and other reasons, and they are flattered in every possible way.
To put it bluntly, they just want privileges and a more comfortable life.
They were unwilling to accept that they must be equal to others, and at the same time they were unwilling to admit this, so they followed Yan Bing's inciting words and began to comfort themselves, using "forced by life" to make excuses for themselves.
Obviously the situation has not reached the most dangerous level, but they covertly say "No, there is nothing we can do" in order to save their face and dignity.
It's really amazing.
In addition, there are classic amber and daylily.
When Lin Ren was just a street rat, the Hemerocallis family always helped Amber, and the young man and woman had a secret love. After the position was reversed, Kohaku was stunned when he faced Akagi who "selected resources" and "gave them to him".
This moment of surprise was very soulful, indicating that Amber's first reaction was "It's good that Hemerocallis and his family belong to me."
This invisible arrogance and status inequality are most easily felt between lovers, so Hemerocallis quickly discovered this and slapped Amber in disappointment.
Fortunately, Amber was immediately alerted, and Hemerocallis did not unilaterally deny Amber and her feelings for Amber because of this incident. The two fell in love and started a family, and they lived in harmony, which was a good ending.
Having said this, I would also like to mention a deeply hidden irony that I only realized after watching "Scale Man" for the third time.
It's about Li Hu and others under Yan Bing.
They firmly believe that "everyone with scales must be guilty", and they can be said to have used hating and diode to the extreme. But I suddenly became curious. Logically speaking, if people like Li Hu have such a strong desire to eliminate the scale people, shouldn't they also become scale people like Cheng Ying?
With this question in mind, I watched the movie again, expecting to see another vicious hell joke. To my surprise, in the various big scenes that followed, Li Hu and the others were still human beings. , showing no signs of evolution.
When Rui was in charge of the overall situation, they silently obeyed the arrangements; when Yan Bing came out to confuse people's hearts, they followed Yan Bing away without hesitation.
Then I realized it.
This group of people are just fierce in appearance but weak in appearance. What they really enjoy is the pleasure of "dog legs", the pleasure of having violent power to back them up.
In other words, "just want to be on the side of power."
No matter who is in a high position with what ideals, they have no opinions and desires of their own at all. They just want to be a lackey, using the power of their master to show off their power.
In the operation that almost killed Zhuang Xiong, Li Hu's idea that "credit is more important than human life" also reflected this.
I have to say that this is another detail that I don’t think much about after a quick glance, but it’s terrifying to think about it once you pay attention to it.
All of the above (not even a complete list) are all bright or dark contrasts between before and after in "The Scaled Man". It's called a commercial movie, but it's actually full of satire. It can be called a collection of jokes from hell. Yuan Xiao and Fang Youwen's works are always so spicy and sharp, leaving people with mixed emotions.
Finally, I would like to add one of my favorite comparisons.
When Pan Hong shouted to Yan Bing, asking him to thaw the ice tomb, Yan Bing laughed and said, "It is because of this (you are too kind) that you will never become a hero."
However, in fact, it was precisely because of this that Pan Hong became the only hero in the end.
In the battle of completely different concepts and beliefs, there is no forced preaching or reasoning "kind people must be great heroes", but the stance and ideas of the creative team are conveyed to the audience through specific events and endings, which makes My viewing experience was quite good.
Similar to the contrast between "good and evil" here, in the film, Yan Bing asked others to cut off his scales, while Rui took the initiative to sacrifice his scales and set himself on fire, Maoxu died of a righteous death, and was willing to donate his scale ashes to the tribe, etc.
Compared with the previous works, although "Scale Man" contains many satires, the main tone is very positive and the story is told clearly and completely from beginning to end. After reading the five years in the easter egg, I feel more complete and have no regrets. , only a touch of melancholy as a good story comes to an end.
That concludes this film review. I generally recommend that you go and watch "Scale Man" live. Whether you want to enjoy the audio-visual feast, experience the detailed plot, or just watch Hell's Joke like me, it's definitely worth it!
Finally, I would like to solicit votes for the red group that I support. As long as you are willing to go to the cinema to support the box office of "Scale Man", send me a private message with your ticket stub and I will reimburse you! #thumb#thumb
…
Chen Huai read it in one go and was amused by the emoticons more than once. Indeed, as the comment below said, "When you smile, you feel like a 'merit-1' is floating on your head."
It was hell! ...but poof.
Chen Huai coughed twice and saved all the emoticons in a very honest manner, especially the one "I, Yan Bing, hate sanctimonious hypocrites the most in my life.jpg". He thought he could change it and send it to his boss next time during a meeting. Colleagues complained.
Like:
I, Lao Zhao, hate people who grind and chirp the most in my life.jpg
Their Mr. Zhao really said this, but it was this same Mr. Zhao who often held meetings for three to five hours.
Chen Huai sighed and sighed, the takeaway just happened to arrive, so he and his colleagues shared a table, and everyone looked at their mobile phones while eating.
[Bing Bi Zhi Shu | Rational discussion, who is stronger between the red and blue teams in the finals of "Entertainment Intern"? 】
——
Thank you for the invitation. I have read both. My personal experience is that they are both worth revisiting.
Before answering this question, I also read the comments of other answerers. It seems that everyone is very convinced by the special effects of Qinyi Technology. Although the special effects of the red and blue groups are used in different places, they are each powerful in their own way. Basically, no one compares them. I think so too. Anyway, Qinke is awesome.
Secondly, I see a lot of people complaining about the music and the plot. Let’s not talk about the music first. As far as the plot is concerned, I think the works of the red and blue groups actually have many similarities.
For example, Yan Bing and Hans, there is no need to say this. They are both extremely hypocritical villains. Emmm, if we really want to talk about who is more disgusting, I will vote for Yan Bing. Hans is still too young in comparison. However, the words he said to Anna at the last reversal were really disgusting. For the first time in my life, I don’t want to praise the actors’ acting skills.
Another thing is the ending. The ending of the red group surprised me, because I didn’t expect that the scales of the scaled people disappeared in the final ending, and everyone returned to human beings.
How should I put it, it feels like "living back"? It’s hard to say.
But if you think about it carefully, this is the original wish of Rui and other scale people. After turning into a dragon, Pan Hong eliminated the scales and eliminated the inequality and barriers between races, which is consistent with his own thoughts all along, and it is quite reasonable.
As for the blue group, the ending is also that Elsa realized that true love can thaw, so all the ice and snow in Arendelle melted and returned to spring (I still can't help but praise Qin Ke's special effects). It is also "return" and "crisis resolution". The villains got the punishment and end they deserved, and the good life is back, which is very satisfactory.
However, in terms of character growth, I still have to say that I want to stand with the blue group.
It's not that the red group is not good, but I feel that "Scale People" pays more attention to group portraits, and there are conflicts under the issues of race and natural disasters. It's just... there is a mysterious feeling that all the characters serve the plot, whether it is Pan Qing, Rui or Pan Hong who finally turned into a dragon.
I see many people are fascinated by Rui played by Nie Xingliang. Indeed, they can get the charm of the character, but I still think that this is a big plus for the character setting and experience (white hair, green eyes, flame heavy motorcycle, you know), and if you look at the character alone, you will feel that it is a little hard. This is an old problem of group portrait works. There is nothing much to say, and it does not affect the excellence of "Scale Man".
On the other hand, the blue group does not have so many supporting roles, so Elsa and Anna are very good at portraying their images. The emotional changes of both of them are very delicate, and they are thrown out little by little with the plot. Especially Elsa, the song "Let It Go" "let go of herself", which resonates with many people.
Yes, when it comes to resonance and sense of substitution, it has to be the blue group.
The pace of the red group is too fast, and the story is both grand and complicated. It is actually quite difficult to substitute. Most of the time, I can only watch. In addition, I personally don’t like intense and contradictory plots (purely because I am too Buddhist and don’t want to watch quarrels), so the most immersive part is the scenery and natural disasters in the middle, which is almost like playing experience projects in an amusement park.
As for the blue group, one is that the scene is too much of a plus. Who doesn't love the coronation banquet? Another is that the focus of the story is on Elsa, and the audience's emotions are particularly well pulled. The whole process is followed by the plot, and the funny scenes of Anna and Kristoff are also very relaxing. The viewing experience is very good, with laughter and tears.
However, when it comes to big scenes, although the blue group has the interaction with the queen, Elsa's combat power is too strong and directly ceilings. Whether it is for the audience or for Anna and other characters, the magic special effects are a bit passive, unlike the red group, which has many exciting fighting plots.
Ahem, in the end, what I actually want to say is, who said "Ice and Fire War" at the beginning? It's simply a great prophet! !
On one side is fire, on the other side is ice; on one side is sisterhood, on the other side is brotherhood.
Wow, are you red and blue groups so tacit? !
I really like this, more of it! ! !
PS. Although I want to avoid controversy, I still mention it a little bit. The soundtrack of the red group is indeed urgent, and there is still a lot of room for improvement. But apart from the music, the other parts of the Red Team are very good. As of the time I wrote this answer, the Red Team has been suppressed by the Blue Team (sigh), which is a pity. I still hope to have a chance to push forward more!
