The history of Hollywood adaptation of fairy tales has a long history, dating back to the era of silent films, but most of them are based on the restoration of the original works, the most famous representative of which is the Disney Company. As a loyal fan of fairy tales, Disney started from the first animated film "Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs" in film history in 1937 to a series of classic works later, all based on faithfulness to the original work as the primary principle of creation, and then added some active The characters or clues of the atmosphere have produced many works that are suitable for all ages. However, splendor also deteriorates, and the splendor that has expired fades away. Disney's rise is only a few bits and pieces of the old century. After the new century, fairy tale movies seem to have come to an end. Of course, some movies have made great contributions to this, such as the mysterious "Little Red Riding Hood", and the masterpiece "Snow White and the Huntsman". (Yes, I repeat that again.) However, thanks to Tim Burton's 2010 opening, Alice in Wonderland smashed the $1 billion box office and reignited the fairy tale craze.

It is said that if you gather a continuous crossbow and enough peaches and wine, you can obtain supreme power. Such is life, ideals and beliefs will always support you. Many people swear when they see Huang Gai, but we have our own way of playing, what do you know? Please whip me, Gong Jin! ! Fight for honor! This is the spirit of chivalry we live by. In the movie, Jack told us with his actions that people can be weak and incompetent, but our beliefs must not fall. The story of knights and princesses never goes out of style!
