Anyone who is a little bit interested in movies knows that there will be a sci-fi blockbuster "Avatar" in the first month of January in the Mainland. I heard that it is very good. Some people who are not so concerned about movies, glanced at the advertisements on the bus stop signs on the Internet, and thought that the director of "Titanic" took 12 years to remake the cartoon "Afanti"! I just want to tell those ordinary people who don't care much about movies, what does "Avatar" mean, why it is so fascinating, and what's the difference between IMAX 3D and 3D. Let more people walk into the IMAX cinema to watch "Avatar".

Title: What is Avatar?

There is a priceless stone on the planet Pandora. People on the earth want to get the stone when they are moved. They spend a lot of money to create a creature called Avatar. Avatar is not the only one, a group of trained earthlings each have an avatar that matches them. To put it simply, Avatar is a shell that requires trained earthlings to use their thinking to control its actions (people who have seen "Hacker" will certainly not be unfamiliar). To get those priceless stones, the people on earth must penetrate into the natives of Pandora, and the shape of the avatar is made according to the natives.

Story: Undercover + Anti-undercover

Among the trained earthlings, there is a retired navy with disabled legs. He is the one who manipulates Avatar best. The movie tells how he successfully integrated into the natives of Pandora. Execution The duty of undercover, and fell in love with the indigenous women in the day and night with the indigenous people, and helped the indigenous people resist the attacks of the people on earth. If you love the entanglement of "Infernal Affairs", the shock of "District Nine" and the romance of "Pocahontas", the plot of "Avatar" will definitely not let you down.

Theme: Environmental Protection + Accusation of Greedy Humanity

When the actor prayed to the gods, he said, "You are so unfair to us. Our human world has no spiritual trees, no flying birds, and nothing. What's damn it is that they have to come to this world now. , I will never allow it." In the American blockbuster "Avatar", it must be the Americans who dominate the world and save the planet Pandora. When the Americans arrived in Pandora, they became the leaders and commanders of the indigenous people. The scene of the war largely showed the incompetence of the weak in the face of high technology and high intelligence.

But the penetration of James Cameron's environmental theme and the admiration of nature are everywhere, and the power of nature is the key element to solve all problems. "Avatar" can be seen everywhere in the shadow of "City in the Sky", human greed, paradise in the sky, another kind of beauty, courageous people gradually grow into a righteous force against evil forces... But "Avatar" The fantasy, mystery, magnificence, romance, and innocence possessed are several times that of "City in the Sky".

Love: She taught him and accompanied him to

watch "Tarzan of the Apes" before he grew up . The girl taught Tarzan to learn to be human, learn to learn how to love, and also germinated and blossomed. There was a scene where Tarzan and the girl put their palms together. Taishan's inner OS was probably " I finally found the same hand as mine, and I finally found the same kind." This kind of encounter of different life forms, knowing and loving each other, is harder and more precious than everyone's love. The same is true in "Avatar", except that the hero and heroine do not love each other because of the similarities in the body, but because of the fit of the soul.

Like love in every epic film, "Avatar" has all the elements needed by the audience. The woman stepped on the tree, and all her footprints glowed with faint green light. The man followed after him. The spiritual tree seeds flew down on the man, giving off a silver gleam—beautiful; the woman slid down from a high altitude with the help of leaves and leaves, and fell to the ground lightly. , When a man imitated, he was clumsy and hit the ground hard-funny; a woman taught a man to fly, and the man learned how to fly with each other-romantic; when a woman first saw a man's real earth person, the two touched each other Face, say "I see you"-sensational. Why would a man "betray" a human being on earth for a woman and act as an undercover agent? Just because of the woman's line, "You are like a little baby, you don't understand anything", she taught him to grow into a responsible and responsible warrior.

Scenes: The shocking

war scenes brought about by the strong contrast have several magnificent scenes. The huge shock came from the disparity in the strength of the two sides of the battle. On one side is an earthling with high technology, on the other side is the original native of Pandora, on the other side is a missile, on the other side is a bow and arrow, on the other side is a bullet-proof combat spacecraft, and on the other side is a big bird. It is certainly the best war scene to be able to achieve one enemy and one hundred.

Special effects: Must see IMAX 3D

"Avatar" not only has 3D, but also IMAX 3D. Fans of domestic cities where IMAX theaters are located must not miss the IMAX 3D version of "Avatar". Looking at the effect of IMAX 3D, it is definitely worth the fare than the 3D version.

To give a simple example, when watching 3D "Ice Age 3", the audience can feel the three-dimensional effect of the world they are watching, but we can clearly realize that it is another world, in front of us, on the big screen. When watching IMAX 3D "Avatar", the audience not only sees a three-dimensional scene, but also feels that they are also in this three-dimensional scene. The viewer is in the world they see, with the hero and heroine beside him. It is a space with us, the scene in the movie is no longer far away, and the audience can feel the wonderful experience at their fingertips. Why can "Avatar" do this?

The photosensitive area of ​​each frame of IMAX film is 10 times that of ordinary 35mm film frame, which determines that the images cast on the "giant screen" are clearer and brighter than ordinary movies. Due to the high resolution of the IMAX screen, the audience can be closer to the screen, all seats are within the height of one screen (while the seat span of ordinary traditional theaters can reach 8-12 screens), and the seat tilt is larger than that of ordinary theaters. , So that the audience can better face the center of the screen. IMAX 3D uses two IMAX-specific 15/70 films, one film corresponds to one eye, and two separate images are provided through special glasses. Combined with the IMAX giant screen, IMAX3D can produce a realistic full-view stereo effect.
