Aesthetic fatigue started with Pirates of the Caribbean 3. In 2003, I was still obsessed with Keira Knightley in Pirates of the Caribbean. By the time of Pirates of the Caribbean 2, I was a little dissatisfied with Hollywood's attitude towards making money. By the time of Pirates of the Caribbean 3, I was out of anger: the dead could be resurrected, and Captain Jack, eaten by an octopus, could return to the real world. Although this is a series of magical films, the editorial design that breaks away from the basic framework is unbearable. Just like we have no objection to the setting in Journey to the West that Sun Wukong has seventy-two transformations and can fly through clouds and fog, etc., but we have a great opinion on the setting of Sun Wukong who can't fight against any immortal mount in the Heavenly Palace. Because no matter how absurd, empty, or ethereal setting, you must always have a rule that you must follow. "Pirates of the Caribbean 1"'s setting of life and death, curse makes us thrilling to see Captain Jack and Barbossa fight. If we knew from the beginning that Barbossa in "Pirates of the Caribbean 3" could be resurrected, it would be difficult for us to feel the thrilling scenes in "Pirates of the Caribbean".
Talking so much nonsense, just to draw my point: Hollywood sequel movies are crazy driven by money and profit, and ultimately Hollywood itself is unlucky, because audiences will eventually abandon those who molest them. Although "Pirates of the Caribbean 4" still achieved a very high global box office, although "Fast and the Furious" has filmed the seventh film, although "Mission Impossible 4" has returned to the light, but the general public is generally tired of Hollywood movies. open secret. "Pirates of the Caribbean" can continue to film the magical adventure of Captain Jack, "Fast and the Furious" can continue to describe the plot of revenge and escape. "Ice Age" can even continue to film Diego and Sheila's story of raising the next generation, "Madagascar" can continue to play tricks with a group of animals all over the world, and the audience can also walk out of the cinema and wait until the pirated high-definition version is released before playing it on the Internet .
Considering that "Ice Age" is also from Blue Sky Studios, I was prepared to wait to see the story of Blue and Pearl raising the next generation like Manny and Ellie before watching the movie. Although the plot is similar to what I expected, "Rio 2" still gave me a lot of surprises: gorgeous pictures, beautiful singing, and careful detail processing are all bonus points. For those who haven't watched "Rio 1" I mean, it's a full-fledged movie. But looking back after watching it, not only did I not remember the plot of "Rio 1", but even the "Rio 2" I just watched became blank.
Therefore, for such a movie, I don't expect it to be a classic animation like "Wall-E" and "Uptown" and "The Lion King", it did give me 100 minutes of laughter, gave me My 100-minute visual treat. Compared with those domestic movies that are neither willing to do a good job of details and pictures, nor to shoot seriously, this is indeed a movie that is highly recommended. But for the film industry as a whole, I still wish there were as few sequels as possible.
