However, "How to Train Your Dragon" "does the opposite."
Exceeding the "Trailer" Wonderful
If the box office of "How to Train Your Dragon" is not good at the global box office, then the first person who should be fired is the editor of the trailer. This trailer, which exudes a strong copycat atmosphere, almost has a strong momentum to keep the audience out of the theater. You can tell from this trailer that this is a Thai cartoon, or a Hong Kong cartoon in China, and maybe even a cartoon in Mainland China... You only don’t think of Hollywood in the United States, but the production company is actually It is the famous DreamWorks-you know, this is the Hollywood animation giant on par with Pixar.
In "How to Train Your Dragon", there are magnificent night scenes, magnificent seas of clouds, and seas of water and sky... It can be said that most of the pictures in the film are just cut out, which is a stunning computer. desktop wallpaper. However, these images, which are enough to make people drop their chin, have not shown much in the trailer. This makes the exaggerated character shape and the invisible dragon appear unusually copycats in the fast camera switching in the trailer-so much so that when I first saw the trailer, I doubted the dream in the title. Is the crescent moon of the factory hung in the wrong place?
This trailer really makes me have no desire to watch a movie.
However, when I walked into the theater with luck, I found that I almost missed a wonderful animation because of a poor quality trailer.
Like DreamWorks’ previous animations, spoofing still fills the entire movie. However, compared with the previous enthusiasm for simple spoofs, DreamWorks has told us a very warm story this time. Although the theme of the film is still based on the seemingly clichéd plot setting of "turning enemies into friends", it is this cliché but the truth that is hard to find in reality can make every audience who walks into the theater have a strong resonance. It is worth mentioning that the setting of the protagonist's broken leg at the end of the film has made the theme of the film a great sublimation. This setting is an extremely brilliant finishing touch not only for DreamWorks animation, but also for the entire Hollywood animation. .
3D effect is close to "Avatar"
Although the 3D glasses equipped in "How to Train Your Dragon" are far less luxurious than "Avatar", the 3D effect is no less than that of Avatar. Audiences who have seen pseudo 3D movies like "War of the Gods" can find the fun of 3D movies again in this movie. It is no exaggeration to say that among all the 3D movies I watched this year, the effect of "How to Train Your Dragon" is definitely among the top three.
The technical highlights of the film are far more than just 3D.
In "How to Train Your Dragon", we can see almost all the simulation problems in the special effects world: sky, clouds, running water, flames and even hair. Any one of these can toss off the half-life of the special effects personnel, let alone all of them. We may have seen the above special effects in excellent 3D animations such as "Flying House" and "Ice Age", but at least it is the first time for me to see these major special effects problems appear in a movie together. . If it weren't for the exaggerated face of the character, it would be hard to believe that this is an animated cartoon if you observe it from the details.
Waiting for Pixar surprise
"How to Train Your Dragon" has brought 3D animation to a new level in terms of technology. This guy seems to have always been the second in Hollywood animation millennium. Although he is not as popular as Pixar in terms of awards, he can always be in the right place. The timing made people notice their existence and was amazed by their works. DreamWorks has already handed in an answer sheet that satisfies animation fans this year, and for animation fans, Pixar’s renewed effort is the next biggest suspense. Pixar and DreamWorks, these two animation companies that look like millennia-old enemies, are actually in a state of benign competition, raising the level of animation time and time again to a height that is difficult for visionaries to reach. Jue Zhong created the "Moore's Law" of computer animation.
