"Journey to the West: Conquering the Demons" (hereinafter referred to as "Journey to the West") is a new start for Mr. Zhou.
The former golden partner has never been in contact
with each other... The Xinghui personnel who he promoted left him...
Tai Chi's script was blocked again... I thought that "Journey to the West" was suddenly announced
when Xing Ye and returned to silence ! But the poster of the copycat Liu Dongzi and the messed up propaganda... Up to the instant sense of Asura's Wrath in the first trailer, I firmly believe that this is a big bad movie. As a fan of Star Lord, when I passed by the theater and entered, I just thought I was completing the task. The result... me! Big! happiness! Pass! see! Although the actors have changed and the special effects company has changed, Zhou Xingxing is still the same Zhou Xingxing: he is full of stubborn sincerity in his works, and his requirements for the works are the same as before. (heavy spoilers below) --------------------------------------- --- Miss Duan's love-----I caught you Miss Duan fell in love with Chen Xuanzang, most people said it was abrupt. But as a very MAN village owner, in addition to subjugating demons and eliminating demons, she is surrounded by only strange and ugly monsters. Seeing that Xuanzang is so well-mannered, he is also a companion, and he is incompetent and not afraid of death. , to have a baby and live a lifetime in peace" is also normal. If you can all accept the setting of Ziqing Sword, why can't you accept such a setting?














"Big Talk" and "Journey to the West" are both serious cases of female backtracking, and Miss Duan is no exception-----and they both lost their fragrance without getting true love after countless backtracking. On the chariot, she risked her life to push Xuanzang away, and finally got her first hug. In the face of the demon king Wukong, she stepped forward again. Vigorous sacrifice is only for that hug again "I caught you again..."
"Ten thousand years is too long, as long as now." two kinds. One is the incompetent faction like Chen Xuanzang, and the other is the forceful suppression faction. Before Xuanzang sang 300 children's songs, there were piles of exorcism props, but in the end he only used the karaoke part. Although the fat master taught him to use great love to influence the demon, he also demonstrated the way to remove the demon: pulling out the fangs. Xuanzang has the truth, kindness and beauty from the heart, and the courage to face the demon, but he ignored the key action of pulling out the demon's fangs, and he didn't see the truly infinite power of the three hundred children's songs. Therefore, the fat master still said that he was poor. a little bit. The Great Sun Tathagata Sutra has unparalleled power, but only Xuanzang who truly understands the truth, goodness and beauty can use it - because Sun Wukong, who has been suppressed for five hundred years, told us that the Great Sun Tathagata True Sutra is infinitely powerful. Behind it, it is for enlightenment. And the three master exorcists who are in front of them with infinite beauty, possessing peerless martial arts, but they have fallen into the word of fame and fortune and cannot extricate themselves. This is also the reason why Shu Qi couldn't find a good husband among his peers in the past. But the road is one foot high and the demon is one foot high, and most violent exorcists can only end up miserably. Chen Xuanzang's love----big love and little love Xuanzang's love began when he first met Miss Duan, but he stubbornly differentiated between big love and little love, and ended up falling into the mire of love. After the first nosebleed, he nervously kept Miss Duan after being pushed out of the chariot. Facing Miss Duan's final confession in the Five Elements Cave, he deceived himself again and again and deliberately denied himself. Sun Wukong: "Miss Duan's figure is really good." Xuanzang: "Why didn't I see it?" Sun Wukong: "Then you are blind."











That's right, Sun Wukong can see through Xuanzang but Xuanzang can't see through himself. The graceful Miss Duan was in front of her, but Xuanzang was blindly duplicating her words. He was unable to break through his obsession, and ended up miserably in the end.
And because of this catastrophe, Xuanzang finally understood everything.
And because he understood everything, the exorcist became a learner.

Demons

and demons have been redefined in this work. Pig Ganghya and Sha Wujing, who have turned into demons, were both human in their previous lives, and they both had a miserable and tragic life experience. The exorcist can certainly defeat them, but it cannot stop the demons from continuing to spawn. The Great Sun Tathagata Sutra can indeed subdue Wukong, but to eradicate the demons created by human behavior, only the Sutra can be done. The most easily overlooked factor in

human works. The generation of demons is all because of people. Humans create demons, demons come back to kill, and then exorcists kill demons. The source of such an ecological formation depends on people. After the ancient fish's body was hanged, the villagers responded by continuing to vent their anger. When facing the beautiful man, Junior Sister Sauce Pao gave up Senior Brother. There are also the four-eyed Taoist priests who cheated money, and the traders who chased and beaten the streets for the sake of goose legs. It is the behavior of people that becomes the productivity that the demons continue to produce. And no matter how hard Xuanzang and others tried to exorcise the demons, they couldn't avoid the tragedy of Gensao's family being eaten. Therefore, only by using the scriptures to influence the world can it be possible to prevent the generation of demons from the root. -------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- ----------------------------------





This special effect is not a selling point, there are flaws and advantages. Asura's Wrath of the Great Sun Tathagata Sutra has been shouted at the beginning of the trailer for Jiang Lang to complete it until now, so far I can't determine which aspect of the decision this is, and Zhou Xingxing, who has always been rigorous and sincere, can actually allow such a major flaw to appear. , must be held responsible. In addition, the section of Gaojiazhuang and Shuizhai is the climax of the film's art and special effects, and the distant view of Huangshan Mountain in the Five Elements Mountains is unbearable to look directly at. Xuanzang was traveling alone on the cliff, where he stepped on the empty and there is no wood! ? The banana that Sun Wukong threw away is picked up and eaten again! The bananas that were eaten grow back later! (Of course, here you can explain that he threw Xuanzang from the mountain and picked new bananas before catching him) But in any case, the art and special effects of this work are within the standard of masterpieces, as many people say " 3D for 3D's sake" or something... I can only laugh without saying a word. Wouldn't this be a good choice given the current technology? And the setting of the indefinite fly ring is very interesting, why not do it?

Musically, I have to talk about Mr. Zhao Jiping. Many people are moved by the well-known theme song of Lu Guanting, but the most important melody part of this song in "Journey to the West" is produced by the master. However, the adaptation of "Journey to the West" was serious, and it was seriously inconsistent with the journey to the West in Teacher Zhao's mind, so it was not signed in "Journey to the West" in the end. This time, in "Journey to the West", he used his old man's tune again, obtained the authorization from the China Music Association and signed it at the end, and finally brought a generation of famous tune masters to the light of day. Although it may not be the wish of the old man himself, but from my personal point of view, it is a gratifying thing.

In the end, I never expected that the combination of Shu Qi + Wenwen + Huang Bo would burst out with such energy, especially Mr. Huang Bo, who is really becoming more and more master-level.

-------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------- -----------------------------------------

Since the subtitle of "Journey to the West" is called Conquering the Demons, we have reason to believe that there will be a sequel. And the box office broke 500 million in 6 days, which also made many investors eager to move.
After leaving so many of his partners. .
When the production companies are far away from themselves. .
After making the first Journey to the West. .
Star Lord started again.
In any case, I will continue to look forward to Xing Ye's latest works and be his fan as always.
