"Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles": out of the depths of memory from childhood to old age hero □ Vulcan Ji Wen always some things buried in the depths of memory, no matter how also do not deny. ——Vulcan Ji. Inscription.

After school, he hurried home with his schoolbag on his back, just to see these four brave turtles on TV, flying around on the eaves and corners to curse evil and punish them. The heroes in childhood memories include the Five Little Strong from Japan's "Saint Seiya", Astro Boy from China and the four green turtles from the United States. The battle between justice and evil is so pure and straightforward, presenting the battle for justice on the animated screen forever, constructing the rudimentary form of the concept of right and wrong that was clear and concise and almost pale in my childhood. When I was stopped and bullied by older senior students when I was a child, I used to complain all over my stomach. Even if the senior students blocking the way are not evil and dark powers, but the five little strong, Astro Boy and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles are fighting for their lofty and holy goals and are unable to save me, then why does God even like one? The Doraemon who eats bean paste buns will not give it to me, at least it can pull out a strange baby in its pocket to help me through the difficulties. At that time, the world seemed to be full of endless possibilities, and there were countless heroic teenagers lurking everywhere. And only after experiencing enough painful lessons and disappointments did they gradually understand that heroes have their own great careers and have no time to take care of less noble audiences like me. Maybe they want us to be stronger enough to protect themselves. Being bullied. But when I understand this terrible reality, I have no time to exercise myself to make my body stronger, and the big students in the upper grades are no longer popular. They have more fun things to do. The heroes and bad guys in the cartoon all went to fight on another screen besides the TV together, that is, the video game consoles that were popular in our school days and later computer games. We only need to pay a fixed amount of money to choose our favorite hero, and then we control them to experience what they have experienced together. At that time, every student, young and old, will play all kinds of heroes in the virtual world. Live a crazy and cruel life. We will complete their missions and tasks until we finally see a happy ending. TV, animation, arcade and computer games, we have been all the way from the beginning to the present. One era after another is buried by the time of growing up; now, these heroes who have recovered from the depths of childhood memories and come out are still those heroes who are brave enough to fight invincibly. Wu Xiaoqiang's new plot gave me enough disappointment. I can no longer find the crazy obsession and blood boiling addiction when watching them attack the twelfth house. After all, my view of right and wrong is no longer so simple. I no longer accept that people who can’t be beaten to death can still stand up and expand their small universe infinitely every time they are beaten to pieces. Pluto's enemies are much stronger than them. The heroes I admired so much now seem to be no longer reliable, and they are dying. Is it the fall of childhood memories, or is it that my heroes have grown old and have faded like yesterday. Maybe this year should be used for nostalgia. When "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" suddenly emerged from the depths of childhood memories, and when "Transformers" also began to move around, perhaps it should be said that those of us who were born in the 1980s have become the happiest in the world. Baby. Our beloved heroes suddenly moved from black and white cartoons to color flat-screen TVs, and then to the current three-dimensional movie screens. Whether they are late or not, it seems that there is no more demanding for us. Do people start to like memories at a certain age; so that I am not so strict with this kind of movies anymore. I no longer dislike their straightforward plot, extremely simple character structure, and superficial views of good and evil. I don't care about the ending of those victories forever, let alone whether the heroes are old. As long as they are still there, recovering from the depths of memory and coming to our eyes again, we will still choose them hungry, kiss them and hug them, indulge ourselves in memories; ours, theirs, and us and them All the memories when we were together. This is a movie that at least does not disappoint. Before I watched this movie, I had watched an interview with the head of the Hong Kong creative team of this movie on TV. So before watching this movie, what I can be sure of is that this movie will have Chinese Kung Fu and exquisite animation design, and nearly 400 manga artists will join and nearly 24 hours of continuous work. The level of 28 months should not be much worse. The movie also confirmed my guess before watching the movie. The visual effects we need have been made and done very beautifully. Whether it is the design of the action or the exquisite animation screen, it is commendable. Hollywood animation plus Hong Kong action is definitely the best combination of production team now. And what surprises me more is that I should return to the plot of the movie. Because before I watched the movie, I thought it would be a movie with repeated plots. Everything in "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" that we are so familiar with will be reproduced in this movie. This may be the result I hope most for memories, but I don't want to see it. Fortunately, Thomas K. Gray and Kevin Monroe chose to move forward instead of repetition. After Slade, the number one enemy of the turtles, was defeated in this movie, the turtles, who had been united, became idle, so under the arrangement of the teacher, Da Vinci was sent to the South American world to practice. , And the remaining three turtles were left at the sewer house and repeated the monotonous days, and they were not allowed to go out to fight the injustice. The originally harmonious fighting team suddenly became torn apart: Einstein gave up his fighting talents and sat in front of the computer all day long to provide technical support; Michelangelo became a clown to entertain children at birthday parties; Raphael was impatient Justice has an uncontrollable desire to become a night policeman. Under such a prospective design, how to reinvigorate the team and become more united and stronger has become the ultimate goal of this movie. This initial setting gave this movie a very valuable direction of exploration. The original supernatural turtles’ flat characters have become more plump, and the originally united and harmonious team has begun to have contradictions and become torn apart. How to rebuild a new and stronger team before a bigger terrible conspiracy descends? How to go about it To resolve the contradictions between team members and how to fight against the dark forces, such a concept in the story of the turtle seems relatively new and conforms to the current mainstream will, the individual differences and team spirit among members are now this individualization In the era of the era, it is more modern than the flat characters and the pale disputes between good and evil. The choice of the villain confirms my view. Winters seems to be a villain for most of the time in this movie. From three thousand years ago, when he led his brothers to kill wildly, to the introduction of alien monsters to the earth, and all his brothers. Turned into a stone statue and he deliberately wanted to resurrect his brother and collect the alien monsters left on the earth. I never doubted his desire to conquer the earth again. However, at the end of watching the movie, I suddenly realized that what he wanted to do was to use the seven-star connection once every three thousand years to send the alien monsters back to Chuxing, freeing himself from his brothers. So, when he gave up his immortality and crazy desire, he suddenly became a decent character. Instead, his brother betrayed him. In their eyes, Winters had become weak in three thousand years, so they wanted to stop his plan and let him lead them to renew their invasion plan. The biggest villain turned to the opponent’s camp, and his brother betrayed him and became the biggest villain. With the addition of a centrist Carla, the constant change of the righteous and evil camp makes the movie more interesting and fun than the straightforward and unchanging camp. Much. The addition of myths and legends gave this movie an epic aesthetic. The design of the characters is elegant and exquisite, especially the designs of monsters and sculptures resurrected from ancient times are extremely imaginative. All these images are close to the shapes of monsters and ultimate BOSS in the computer games we often play, but they are endless. same. In a magnificent and dazzling visual feast of Chinese Kung Fu and modern computer three-dimensional technology, with the erosive taste of the revival of heroes in the depths of childhood memories, can we refuse to follow them to find team spirit and There is a strong humanistic atmosphere behind the movie. Heroes who are no longer concise and flat may be more in line with our current aesthetic point of view and point of view of right and wrong. It may be said that we grow in time, and they never stop growing in our memory. To some extent, this ninety-minute animated movie surprised me and surprised me. The old heroes who came out of the depths of childhood memories are not old-fashioned, but re-dissolved into my memory in a brand new posture. My dear, all this is beautiful.
