I watched it again last month, thought about it for a few days, and re-read it today.
Originally, I wanted to solve this big problem: Who is the big boss behind?
But after the second brush today, I found:
1. Because I haven't paid enough IQ tax, I still haven't found enough evidence to determine who is the big boss behind the scenes;
2. In many details, I am even more confused.
So today's film review has become a slap in the face of the above 2 questions with everyone.
One: Who is the big boss behind the scenes
Most suspect: Danny.
1. 2 official pictures
On the official poster above, all 6 participants except Danny are frontal, and only Danny is shown on the back. Does it mean that there is a hidden secret on his front?
The above is not an official poster, it should be a promotional image. I've seen online stills of each participant alone, but the official publicity picture no less than two times is that everyone is together, but only Danny has a high-definition close-up.
In the above two pictures, you said that the official did not have any special meaning, which is really unconvincing.
2. If you are facing the elevator, the door of the building is on the left side of the elevator. When participants arrive, they must leave their ID cards and mobile phones at the front desk. But Danny was running from the right side of the elevator, which was inside the building. Don't tell me he's going to pee. Why did he come running from the building?
3. When the 6 people were sitting and chatting in the waiting room, Danny introduced the secret room he played:
Look at Danny's appearance, doesn't he look familiar? Is it very similar to Steve Jobs and then Cook (and China's "Rebs"), whenever Apple has a new product on sale, they stand in front of everyone as chief designers and proudly introduce their masterpieces? !
4. Ben wanted to open the door to smoke outside the waiting room, but he broke the door handle. After the game officially started, the director gave Danny a close-up shot with a very strange expression on his face. (Doesn't seem to be thinking secretly in his heart: These mortals of fish lips are going to be played around by a genius like Lao Tzu.)
I think that the director, or the official, these thoughts, shots, and details are not given for nothing, and they must mean something.
5. As an old bird who has played 93 secret rooms, Danny's presence is too low in the process of playing the secret room. What's the meaning? Those who have played the secret room are very touched. In order to get out of trouble early and to prove their IQ is online, the participants in the secret room are very eager to participate and express, and are willing to dig for clues and solve puzzles. But Danny, aside from constant commentary, isn't too active in problem-solving; he's more of a facilitator, a bystander, using his own cues to introduce other inexperienced players into the game step by step.
6. Danny has always emphasized strict adherence to the rules of the game. If he can play 93 secret rooms, he must also have the basic game ethics of playing secret rooms, such as: no mobile phone. But he not only brought his mobile phone in, but also took pictures in the game scene full of cameras. This kind of behavior is strictly prohibited by the secret room business.
7. In the Freezer Chamber, Danny goes to pick up the lighter that Ben dropped on the ground. After picking it up, strangely, he did not leave immediately, but stood there. Is it like waiting for the trap to be triggered and let yourself fall under the ice?
8. In the back room of the ward, each participant has their own flashbacks. Amanda, who has died, also has flashbacks in the first part of the movie. Only Danny's experience is not shot, but by Zoey. spoken out.
9. In the last big room, the avatar of each participant is on the LED screen. After the white-haired old man was forced to participate, the avatar of Danny was replaced. There are so many official coincidences, I am embarrassed to think it is a coincidence.
10. At the end of the movie, the secret room company is simulating the plane secret room again, and then the big boss--puzzle maker "appears" again. At this time, the big boss still appears as a black silhouette, but there are two shadows partially overlapping. The virtual image above is wearing a hooded sweater and a hat, and the shadow below is like a silhouette without a hat, and you can even see it. to the outline of the hairstyle and ears.
Then I compared this photo with Danny's close-up in a wicked way. Do you think the head shape and ears are very similar? quack!
After a brush, I thought about the clues above, and felt that the daboss behind the scenes was Danny who didn't run away. But after the second brush, I felt that the evidence was sufficient, but not strong enough to confirm that Danny was the big boss.
Do you guys have any other findings that can confirm that Danny is the big boss, or do you have clues to others?
2: After finishing the question 1: Who is the big boss, let’s talk about the second question: Some details I found.
1. In the big room where Ben escaped from the squeezed room, the old man who appeared was not the big boss, that is, not the designer of the game. He said it himself, he was just the games master. Don't be fooled by English (Master master, it sounds like 6 is 1 p), Danny has already introduced it before the game starts, the games master is just a person who explains the background of the story to the participants and leads everyone into the secret room. Anyone who has played the secret room knows that it is similar to In the role of the "doctor" who takes the participants into the secret room. And the puzzle maker designed these games (the secret room), then this puzzle maker is the big boss behind the scenes.
2. This old man feels good about himself, but he doesn't know that his boss is a crazy puzzle maker. He doesn't care about the life and death of his employees at all, he only cares about excitement and ratings. After seeing Zoey break out of the siege, he decisively turned his own employees into participants. And it's even possible that this is itself a part of the puzzle maker's design: as long as the person in this room will never die. Look at the screenshot, the screen that lights up at the back, the puzzle maker is watching the show with a cold eye.
3. And I think the old man, as an employee, actually knows this "unspoken rule". Looking at the screenshot, the old man is talking about "untile WE finish OUR game. The Chinese translation of this line is not accurate enough. A more accurate translation should be: You can't leave unless "we" finish the "we" game. The old man instantly understood that he had also become one of the game participants, and was not surprised at all. Maybe it's a crazy boss who understands himself too well.
I have talked about so many of my findings above, and let’s talk about some of the things I don’t understand. I hope you can answer my questions:
1. In the snow chamber, Mike found the fishing rod, and the camera gave the fishing rod a close-up for a few seconds. What is the intention?
2. After Ben came to the last big room, the white-haired old man "complimented" him and took the yellow lighter recovered from the "dead" Danny from the computer. The camera also showed the "dead" Danny brought in the phone, the dead Jason's blue watch, the dead Amanda's driver's license, and then the camera pans to the microphone on the right side of the computer and gives a close-up for a few seconds. Why?
3. Zoey found out the geographical coordinates of the secret room company's nest through the logo of the secret room company Minos. Because this logo is the same as "Endless Staircase" by the optical illusion artist Escher. How are the coordinates obtained? Solve. See the screenshot for the logo, in front of the front desk.
After talking so much, I finally complained about a bug. In the frozen secret room, everyone fished out an iron-framed ice cube from the ice lake. The key was in the center of the ice cube, and then everyone began to "melt the ice with their hands". Oh my god, have you all forgotten the magnets that are used to catch the cubes? Smash ice cubes with magnets. . . . . Oops
