And some conjectures
*Some of the ideas in this article come from YouTube, Twitter and some other local netizens' discussions. The information comes from the Internet such as Wiki, purely hand-written. Please indicate the address of this article for reprinting.
1. Title raised by wolves apparently referring to the legendary city of Rome by Romulus (Romulus) and Remus (Remus) brothers built two brothers are descendants of the legendary god Mars (Mars) and a female priests , In order to avoid being hunted down, he was abandoned in the wild, and then raised by a she-wolf and a woodpecker. (Woodpecker=father, wolf=mother). Paul and Campion in the film are guessed by many as the prophet ( Maybe it was one of them, maybe both), the prophet was predicted to build a peaceful city = the two brothers established Rome, and the legend said that the two brothers later had a conflict. Romulus killed Remus and became For the King of Rome, maybe only one of these two will survive in the end.
2. The Mithraism in the film has also existed in history. The Mithra is the truth from ancient Persia, the god of light and the sun, and Sol is the sun god in the source and Roman mythology, and then Mithra Mithraism regards Mithra as the main god, and Sol is a deity slightly inferior to Mithra. Mithraism was once widely spread in the ancient Roman Empire, but because it was a secret religion (not publicly preached, various The event was held in secret), and then gradually disappeared. Mithraism has many similarities with early Christianity. Perhaps Christianity has also absorbed some of the doctrines of Mithraism. It is speculated that the reason for the demise of Mithraism comes from Being at a disadvantage in the competition with Christianity and then being suppressed by Christianity, perhaps the film is a parallel world where Mithraism wins. Mithraism personnel have a strict hierarchy, which is also reflected in the film.
3. Mother called herself Lamia when asked about her name in the first season. The name comes from Greek mythology. Legend has it that Lamia is the daughter of the sea god Poseidon. She has outstanding beauty and is the queen of Libya. She became the mistress of Zeus. Then she was discovered by Hera, and Hera took away all her children and killed them, and then turned her into a half-human, half-snake monster, and cursed her that once she closed her eyes, she would see her children being killed. Inability to sleep. Lamia will be heartbroken and mad with pain whenever he thinks of a child. Then he will take other people’s children and kill them. In order to compensate for Lamia but not against Hera, Zeus gave Lamia the ability to take off her eyes. When she takes off her eyes, she can sleep. Correspondingly, in the drama, mother takes off her eyes and is a normal "human", wearing her eyes is a killing machine. Mother’s robots are called Necromancers, the word comes from Necromancy, which is a kind of The witchcraft of communication between the dead, usually translated into spiritism, obviously symbolizes the huge lethality of this robot.
4. The eyes of the mother's fighting form are black. In Western culture, black eyes (no whites of eyes) are often used to indicate the existence of lifeless, evil, and soulless (K in Blade Runner 2049 saw that huge Joy Holographic ads are also black eyeballs).
5. Mithraians call the new planet the promised land, which comes from the land (located in the Middle East) that God bestows on its devout followers in the Bible. According to legend, this place is filled with honey and milk (and then in the play) Human beings came to a new planet, and the crashed spaceship storage box was damaged, and milk really came out, maybe a little black humor), but in reality, the Middle East is not a peaceful and fertile land, but because of religious conflicts and other reasons. The war continues, and it may also herald the fate of this new planet.
6. Master Lei’s works often show the dual creation relationship mapping of creator-human, human-robot/artificial human, this is no exception, God created two people, Adam and Eve, and humans created two robots, father and mother. Adam and Eve ate the forbidden fruit to produce wisdom, father and mother also produced emotions that robots should not have, and the new planet also overlaps with the Garden of Eden in many places, such as clusters of trees, suspected snake-like life, etc. The mother should not look directly at her in combat form (maybe she will emit some harmful radiation, or be locked by her attack system), which is consistent with many gods in myths and legends, for example, there is him (Jehovah) in the Bible. "You can’t look at my face, because no one sees me and I’m still alive." In the myth of Cthulhu, there is also a setting that sees a god going crazy. Maybe as the civilization on the new planet gradually develops, so will the mother. Be deified, become the god of the new human civilization, form another cycle of gods creating humans, artificial robots, and robots becoming gods (like David in the alien, David created the alien, and to some extent became the new The gods), and the flying posture of the Necromancers in the combat form also coincides with the cross shape of Christ's open arms.
7. The name of the bear kid campion can refer to a kind of red flower, which is called campion in Chinese, or it can be another way of writing champion (champion, winner). In ancient times, this kind of flower was used to crown a champion. . Campion is also the creator of father and mother, perhaps the name of the person who designed this project, and he did not breathe when he was born, and he was not affected by the radiation of carbon fruit, which shows his uniqueness. At this point, maybe he is a genetically modified human, maybe he is similar to the little girl born to Rachael in Blade Runner 2049, a humanoid that can grow, and is similar to humans, or it may be pure luck (天Standard configuration of the chosen son).
8. The same bear child campion. When he discovered that his companions were dying one by one, he spontaneously began to pray. Some people think this is unreasonable, because it is impossible for a person to learn to pray (or say, in a completely atheistic environment). It won’t be so small), but I don’t think campion should be regarded as an individual child. Campion at this time is more a symbol of the infancy of human civilization, and the fear of death in early human civilization is the unknown confusion. Is one of the reasons for religion, so his behavior actually symbolizes the origin of religion in human civilization.
9. The same is the name. The original name of the cheap father in the play is Caleb, which is also a biblical name "Galle". As an atheist, he took a religious name. Perhaps he also has some unknown secrets or past events. Caleb is one of the few people in the legend who finally arrived in the Promised Land, which may also indicate that he will not receive the lunch early but will live to the end.
