Lightning Mankiw has retired, do you have a mid-life crisis after the 80s?

"Cars" is a classic animated feature film in Hollywood, and the derivative "Finding Nemo" also has many fans. But Pixar has no long-term vision and long-term plan, and all classics are just classics, so they are playing the nostalgic card.

However, animation feature films that focus on innovation will retreat if they do not advance. The Minions of Lighting Entertainment have become a giant IP. No matter how bad the plot of "Despicable Me" is, it still has a box office volume of one billion yuan. But "Cars 3", abandoning you who are low and funny, and losing a large number of children's audiences, only tells the Wolverine story of the cartoon. Facing the frontal sniping of blockbusters in the same period, where is your capital?

Mankiw is old, and the newcomer quickly ascends to fight to preserve his reputation. The familiar routine and the drowsy plot make you watch cartoons in the cinema for the first time, and the child audience next door has no interaction except to ask the parents a few plot questions. This is in stark contrast to Minions' "Despicable Me", as long as Minions appear, the theater will be full of laughter. The world of cartoons is hot and cold, and you will feel deeply when you experience the two worlds of ice and fire.

The only highlight of the plot is that Mankiw has experienced all kinds of regaining his confidence. He did not give everyone any expectations or fantasies. Instead, he calmly handed the guns of the predecessors to the younger generation, making the younger generation a dark horse, and he himself became the helper. Completely. The transition from racer to coach. Reminds me of Kidd in the NBA or Zidane in Real Madrid, in comparison, Zidane has achieved more and the pressure is more. Real Madrid drew a game, and the harsh face of Lafayette was ugly. The defending of the Champions League only represents the past, look at Ancelotti, maybe it is Zidane your tomorrow.

The dubbing is also not good at all. The original dubbing of the heroine is a Latin American beauty, but the Chinese dubbing has become a square dance coach. Without understanding the political intentions of Disney's attention to ethnic minorities, there is only entertainment in the country, and no political metaphors are dared. Before waiting for the SARFT to use the knife, I went to the palace myself, for fear that you would not be satisfied, and I was full of servility. Huang Lei and Zhang Yixing came here seamlessly from the "Extreme Challenge" men's gang. On the contrary, variety shows have routines, and American cartoon stories are much closer to reality.

Watching a sequel movie or TV series has the greatest feeling that you grow up with the characters of the movie. For example, when "Wolf Warrior 1" was released, you were busy with work, under a lot of pressure, and overwhelmed. In "Wolf Warrior 2", you have learned to self-regulate and relax. I am still taking the postgraduate entrance examination for the first part of "Cars", the second part is already a graduate student, and the third part you have worked for for many years, and you start to call your newcomer colleagues in the workplace by Xiaomou.

Not to mention the "Game of Thrones" that has been with me for seven years. This phenomenal American drama tells you that the adult world is either your death or my death. But you know all these truths, but you still have a bad life. Even the richest man has been controlled by the border, and his successors have all entered Qincheng. Can you control your own destiny? Trembling, walking on thin ice, you and I, who are insecure, have a good life today.

    The two sequels in the past two years have not been successful, and I look forward to next year's "The Incredibles 2"

    In the end, Pixar did not lose its innocence, warmth and creativity, and presented us an inspirational masterpiece that is both traditional and innovative, vivid and emotional in the refurbished Hollywood animation.
