What's really interesting is that in 2017, there was such a big movie "Dinosaurs" that was produced for 105 million US dollars. There will be such a dirty stalk "teenage boy playing a plane for the bull".
We are living in a passionate era of blockbuster movies, maintaining false prosperity through endless marketing feelings and nostalgia. That’s right, Hollywood is increasingly eager to return to its former glory, so that any old IP, regardless of its quality, seems to be able to easily become a " A special effects blockbuster with international appeal".
Yes, Hollywood studios have begun to dig in, throwing money at Sesame Millet, which has a very limited brand awareness. In recent months, "California Highway Patrol", "Ghost in the Shell" and "Beach Ambulance" are the latest products in this trend of renovations.
Although the children’s TV series "Dinosaurs" and the spirit of the 90s are nowhere in sight, this colorful and action-exaggerated special drama series, as early as 20 years ago when "political correctness" disappeared, dared to make more Several high school students of the race formed a superhero team, "take off the mask (actually Stereotype)", work together to become a super robot, tap the real power to defeat the ancient evil god. However, with the passage of time, the meaning of its existence has long been lost in the unknown corner. The current live-action version of "Supernatural Team", like the five over-aged high school students in it, looks outdated and unknowingly.
This bombarding special effects movie may still be able to gain a certain audience in a short period of time, but it is obvious that this movie itself does not know who its audience should be.
If Lionsgate can make persistent efforts next year, and then come to another special effects blockbuster that can't live with gold, then congratulations, you have witnessed the birth of the "golden shit" trilogy. Similar to the same-rooted "War of Gods: Eyes of Power", the plot of "Power Rangers" has super large-scale lethality to the human brain. The script, performance, lines, art, photography, editing, all seem inexplicable and nonsensical. . The sense of space is obscured, and the fit Zod does not even have a clear shot, and even the existence value of the entire film is not as high as the bakery in the film.
Undoubtedly, "Power Rangers" is a subversive and pioneering superhero blockbuster. As early as 2002, "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility" that began in "Spider-Man" was not seen by this group of old boys who had long been full of hair and then shaved. Role growth? Gone. Self-digging? Gone. save the world? Gone. Value choice? Gone.
When Elizabeth Banks did not hesitate to give up "Perfect Pitch 3" and came to play the "town boss"-level villain with odious lines and poor lines, she probably didn't expect the final outcome of this character to be so terrible: a few The Super Lizardman, who was able to destroy the earth billions of years ago, was stunned by five old boys who took office a few days ago. And when she was slapped and slapped into the sky by the super robot, you could almost hear her yelling the classic lines of Big Big Wolf: "I will definitely be back!"
15 years later, a superhero movie with teenagers as the main audience What kind of changes have gone through to drive such a big reversing without a four-six? The process must be heartache and heartbreaking.
For North American audiences who watched "Dinosaurs" grow up, "Dragon and Tiger Boys", which is also adapted from the American youth drama, is an excellent adaptation that is more in line with modern concepts. It respects the original work while maintaining a certain sense of distance. The "Supernatural Team", which is not suitable for adults, blindly caters to the low and evil tastes of the younger audience in North America, and it is all stuffed in like bombardment. They don't care about the extraordinary qualities of these five people, so they can afford to save the world. They just want to see an ideal incarnation image that is as absurd and wild as they are, with extraordinary ability, and capable of driving a mecha (car) to kill the Quartet.
In fact, from the seemingly majestic opening symphony, to the mysterious origin story, to the robot destroying the city, "Power Rangers" and Marvel movies and Michael Bay's "Transformers" have a higher degree of similarity. Rather than its own adaptation material, "Dinosaurs". If it weren't for Elizabeth Banks, if it wasn't for the mechas with a few dinosaur-like appearances, and almost everyone had been talking about the inexplicable self-made word "Zorton", this would not have been an adaptation of "Dinosaurs" at all. Even the iconic five-color spandex jersey has become clumsy and lifeless hard ester plastic.
Handsome? Maybe. Are you stupid? Stupid.
The script written by John Jardins and Burke Sharpless for this film is extremely empty, and with a 124-minute film length, it's just sitting on pins and needles. Before the one and only 20-minute battle in the whole film, there was a lot of unexplained physical training. The villain killed a tramp for no reason, and the entire extraordinary team was almost wiped out by a sex scandal. Sounds like a joke? Believe me, it seems too.
Director Dean Israelite tried to match the level of special effects of Industrial Light and Magic with the urinary nature of the toilet station CW, but for today's proliferation of large-scale productions, what this kind of movie really needs is its own personality. Similar to the endless "youth magic" in the early years, such as "The Seventh Son", "Power Rangers" still hasn't walked out of the huge shadow cast by "Twilight" for the entire teen movie. From this perspective, "Twilight" The position of "City of the City" in the film history of the new century may be far deeper than we thought.
The so-called knowing that there is shit in the mountains, they tend to walk in the shit mountains.
Forgetting to turn on the lights and not knowing the so-called "Fantastic Four 2015", the "Monster Truck" that lost a lot of money before it was released, these profound lessons one after another tell us that we can find normal aesthetics and logic, and it is also in Hollywood today. A huge challenge. If "Fantastic Four 2015" is still a blunder between ambition and reality, creativity and execution, creative independence and major studios, then "Power Rangers" is likely to be ready to turn into Now he looks like a fool.
If you have to describe this mental journey, then it is probably when you were riding a horse on the road from "Pacific Rim" to "Out of Control", accidentally fell into the ass by "Breakfast Club" and couldn't take care of yourself. .
Stupid and lack of confidence, "Power Rangers" is such a magnificent mountain.
Will you climb? Anyway, my advice is, don't.
