In this world, some people are toys for big people. Sima Qian is the so-called "the star calendar of literature and history, which is almost between divination and Zhuzhu, consolidating the teasing of the master, advocating the good and the animal, and despising the popular." Listening to Taishigong's words, you can feel a strong sense of humiliation in his heart. .
There are also people who don't feel humiliated and who are devoted to being a toy. This kind of temperament is called slavery, and this kind of person is called slavery.
Minions must also compete for favor and prove that they are the most worthy of being played by their masters. Therefore, all kinds of frame-ups and conflicts among the slaves are inevitably forced by the wind, the sword and the frost. This kind of story, read in the history books, or casually open your eyes in reality, without saying "it's all eloquent", at least not uncommon.
Therefore, it is difficult to write a story that anthropomorphizes toys, in order to write a little bit of real life, and to write characters that are not annoying.
From this point of view, the "Toy Story" series is really amazing. The ingenious narration and brilliant characters have resolved most of the unbearableness in reality. The owner of the toy is a child, and the child is always very cute. The toy is broken for the cute little owner. At this time, if you jump out and accuse the toy of being servile, it will be very murderous. It's like Hua Xiren in "A Dream of Red Mansions". Although she has been severely criticized, there are always people who like her. The jealousy of the toys is frequently expressed in the movies, but the act of seeking credit for favors gives full play to the advantages of cartoons that are easy to sell.
Of course, the movie also tries to give the toys a little independence. In the third and fourth parts, it is said that toys should be free from attachment to their masters and pursue their own lives. The difference is that the third teddy bear tries to build his own utopia in the kindergarten, which is actually an evil empire; the fourth cowboy Woody and Shepherdess chose "The world is so big, I want to see it", but was complimented.
In fact, you don't need to think about how the toys that are discarded in the playground will end up. But we saw a shepherdess who was sassy, smart, happy and independent despite her broken arm. "What happened after Nora left"? The problem is cheaply romanticized. Criticizing the revolution but celebrating the personal struggle of Acura, Pixar's performance of reality can only go so far.
So I remembered an old story about a toy anthropomorphic, Andersen's "Lovers", about a top and a ball.
The spinning top was originally despicable. He claimed that "it was the mayor who personally took me out of the car", but this is just like Liu Bang is said to be a descendant of Emperor Yao, so it can't be true. The proof of the value of the top is that the child will paint him once after a while, so it looks decent and beautiful. This is today's so-called "Phoenix Man", a young man in a counterattack.
Ball "like a fashionable young lady, proud of her life", her parents are tanned leather slippers, there is a piece of cork in her body, this is the daughter of a good family, but it is in decline.
The top said to Qiu'er, "Since we live in the same box, why don't we be a couple, okay?" This tone is very similar to that of an older youth who doesn't expect love. Get married then. However, Qiu'er disagreed, she still had a dream of love. What's more, marriage is also an opportunity to jump in class, so I feel that my lover should be Swallow. Tops and balls are considered middle-class, while Yanzi is aristocratic.
Later, when the ball was thrown, it bounced so high that it didn't know where it went.
The so-called can't get is the best. Tuo misses Qiu'er very much, and thinks that she no longer appears, that she really married Yanzi and went away. Five years later, the top was painted gold, the most successful time of his life, and then he jumped too high and fell into the trash.
Here he met the ball again. The ball has been soaked in sewage for five years, and it is completely unremarkable, but she rambles about her family background, and the top knows that this is the goddess in her heart. The spinning top was very fortunate that the ball didn't recognize the golden self. At this time, a child came over and picked up the golden top, but the ball was ignored.
After that, the top never mentioned his old love.
Like "Toy Story 4", this is also a story of two separate toys reuniting. It's just Andersen's narrative, calmly, but much more cruel than the movie. Toys that like to jump and rise so easily end up falling into the dumpster so easily is the cause of middle-class anxiety. The ball is more miserable than the Shepherdess, and the top is more scumbag than the cowboy Woody, but they seem to be more common in life than the Shepherdess and Woody.
Therefore, "Toy Story" is a family-friendly movie, but to explain to my elementary school daughter what this Andersen fairy tale tells us, I don't think it's hard to tell.
Last but not least, according to the habit of some people who always like to blame the society when things go wrong, the spinning top now explains why he doesn’t recognize the ball, probably saying: “From the perspective of garbage sorting, we can’t be together, so you can’t blame me. of."
