I wanted to search for cartoons, but I found this treasure. I was stunned throughout the whole process, and even wanted to recommend it to everyone around me.
I don't know how many people are so patient today.
The way of expression and the structure of the story took me by surprise. The aftertaste is more shocking, so that if you continue to watch the cartoon Metropolis, there will be a feeling that it is not a dimension.
I never dare to underestimate the wisdom of people in the past. In any era, there are such excellent people and works. After all, only a few are remembered. Most of them fade away with the passage of time. If future generations are accidentally inspired, they can be activated again. After the second creation, they will have the opportunity to be seen again as new things. Both situations are a repeat of the same mistakes. This is a cultural gene of human beings, meme. This gene slowly advances human social change until a mutation occurs. Another example of mutation in biology, whether it is good or bad, survival or destruction, is unknown.
My grandmother was born in 1925, when this film appeared in the late Qing Dynasty. There are boats, cars, guns and cannons, but all the imagination is devoted to the era of satirizing feudalism and making a living. How to imagine the future.
Poverty limits my imagination. In the 1990s, I didn't think about subway viaducts. Elevators are also a luxury. Children will also feel foreign when they see the car. Flying to the moon is just an abstract and unbelievable concept. How can you think of electronic door locks, supercomputers, 996, and the structure of society, what is politics, what is philosophy, what is art, what is religion.
The poorest imagination is the unimaginable.
The biggest problem is not being able to ask questions.
This movie is not a work that ordinary people can make. The creator must have independent thinking and a complete cognitive system, and also need a certain life experience and courage to achieve such a classic.
He can see the essence and inner logic of things, and can express them clearly. In the form of movies, he conveys a lot of information. The length of the whole film is amazing. As for how to interpret it, it is not the same. The picture is easy to listen to the explanation, and what you get is the interpretation of others, and you lose the real fun of watching this movie. The original information genes were also distorted layer by layer, and finally became what others wanted you to know, not what you saw.
