Black Sheep

More than twenty years ago, the zombie dog with patches on its body had already made the residents of the town restless. Maybe it didn't do anything wrong by itself. What's more, it was indeed a silly but well-behaved good pet before it was alive, but it should not appear in front of people anymore because it is too different, and it is easy to make people panic. Just like that pale robot, perhaps people seemed to accept him happily at first because of his talent, but one day, people’s fear of aliens will explode in people’s hearts. Maybe he did nothing wrong, just because he has a pair of scissors hands.
Whether it is Sparky or Edward, I can't help but remind me of the black sheep. They are not black sheep, but unknowingly broke the rules of most habit of silence. In Calvino's writings, the black sheep is the only honest person in the country of thieves, but it is the non-theft behavior of this honest person that has caused inequality and the gap between the rich and the poor in this country that has been deceiving each other but has a balanced trade. This world regards absurdity as normal because of the habits of most people.
Unlike Vincent who was dying in his oppressive fantasy, the end of this black-and-white gothic animation was a happy family ending-Sparky was resurrected again with the help of the adults starting the engine. Some people say this is because the producer of the film is Disney, and Tim Burton had to dance with shackles under the "intimidation" of big companies. I don't think so, maybe what TB wanted to convey was a warm story. After all, the ending of this story more than 20 years ago was like this, except that there was no cat and dog battle, the tortoise turned into a Godzilla, and the physical education teacher took the biology class on behalf of the bridge.
Some people say that TB has been exhausted, repeating themselves constantly, and paying tribute to the various horror films and B movies in the movie without restraint. And I like Tim Burton, precisely because he is immutable. From "The Master of the Underworld" in 1989 to "Frankenstein Dog" in 2012, the words goth, darkness, weird, and lonely all closely surround him. The movie is difficult to disperse. The sense of inheritance of the character modeling also makes me feel at ease. They are still clay figures with long arms and legs and Gothic protagonists with sharp chins and big eyes who tend to close themselves. They look like "Zombie Bride" and "The Nightmare Before Christmas". "The sequel. Even the mutated brine shrimp exploded after eating salted popcorn, like aliens whose brains burst after listening to the music in "The Martian Plays on the Earth". Behind the scenes is still the talented Danny Elfman, who hasn't changed for thousands of years, and Winona Ryder, who has been dubbed for a long time. Some directors like to experiment and innovate very much. They obviously want to challenge the tragedy when they make a good comedy, and the result is indeed very tragic. I just like that Bolton knows what he likes best and what he is best at from beginning to end, and he has hardly changed over the years. Go to your mother's Jiang Lang to be exhausted. This is called perseverance.
