The shortcomings of the English version

Tomorrow, I’m going to watch the 2010 version of "clash of the titans", in order to preview the outline of the story so that you don’t get into the movie theater and don’t understand it at all. Today I watched this 81 version. This is a story of a British director integrating into American production. I checked Davis's information. This old man was born in England on May 24, 26. He is an 84-year-old Gemini. He directs both TV series and movies. The most famous work is this. "Clash of the titans".

Generally speaking, this is still a mainstream American cultural film, with 16 million investment and 41 million return. It ranked 11th in 1981. The wiki did not introduce its academy judgments, because such a film cannot be included. Academic eyes.

At the end of the dialogue between the goddess and Zeus, "If one day there will be such a courageous person, if courage and imagination become the quality of every mortal, what should we do?" "Then we don't need us anymore. But. Too many cowardly, lazy and hypocritical people live on the earth and it is difficult to eliminate them.” In fact, this refraction full of philosophical ideas and religious aspects is reflected in many places in the film. Even with a puff of British accent, I felt a hint of ladies first.

But this is the sadness of the British. They are dissatisfied that their criminals are now the highest-ranking cultural communicators. They are jealous of Asia's overdeveloped but culturally lagging appearance, which gives them the opportunity to sympathize. British directors like to integrate movies into philosophy, like to compare movies to a fast-browsing novel, and like the profound content of the content to overcome all visual influences. Please, okay? Although I like British people very much, this kind of stubborn but extreme thinking really hurts the gold content of generations of movies.

First of all, "clash of the titans" is not a literary film, and of course there is no literary accent in the film. But commercial films also have to look like commercial films. Although the producers strongly like stop motion animation, can the monsters really scare people after a meal? If the use of stop motion animation is only to highlight technological progress and image innovation, it may be desirable for audiences in the 1980s. For audiences in the 21st century who desire this film to become a classic, don’t have any hope. .

The opening clip of the beautiful girl into the sea is actually good, but it was too gloomy to show the mystery of the heaven and the sublime of the geographical location. The spectacle is called spectacle because of its magic, and the reason why the mystery is mysterious. It lies in its psychedelic, and the beauty of beauty lies in the visual impact of the color tone, but this segment is accompanied by the big bird of Poseidon flying over the mountains and snowy fields, but the passion is basically washed away except how this segment is not finished. . It’s very interesting that Wu Yusen also came to this section in "Red Cliff" to show Zhou Yu loves his hometown. Wu's place is beautiful, but this kind of simple display method has no effect on people like me who don’t like literary films and don’t like monotony. .

So after reading it without distraction, the story is probably more clear, but the tone is very strange. At the beginning, this is a serious film, and the strange noises of the poet appear. This is another film with a little joy. Then it turned over the little war between humans and beasts. It looked like this was a 17+, and when it should finally be transformed into a romance movie, another owl fell down to announce the humor of the movie. Mix and match also need themes. Option 1: Davis put a number of profoundly meaningful symbols in the film very carefully. I didn’t see it. According to the British director’s convention, it is very possible; Option 2: Davis just responded to Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer’s request and said a no. It hurts, there is a story of monsters and horses.

The problems explained by the box office may be that the 1981 movie may be boring, the 1981 movie may not have special effects, Americans admire Greek mythology, and fight scenes in previous movies are very scarce... There are a few things that none of them are related to the language of the movie. . The bad movies made are usually the best with illogically logically upset. This is really not a bad movie, but it is too common. There are many disappointments, and there are also some innovations and likings. It is just one. Movies that you will forget when you see them, and you can't remember them when you cite the classics in the future. Ah, maybe the 2010 version is very powerful. I heard that the picture of Medusa was disgusting when it came out, so the 81 version can be used as a comparison player to reappear in front of the world.

Suddenly, there is no real emotion in this movie.

People are killed when they are killed by calibos. Perseus called out his friend’s name loudly and asked if you were really dead. After confirmation, he left without looking back, I think the sound of sad music is hope. What got the audience's sympathy was that this seemingly great friend didn't even have a chance to appear on the scene a few times. Why did the inadequacy of the previous accumulation make the audience feel sad in the later stage?

The emotional scene between calibos and andromeda is the same, Belle Love the Beast can only go to Disney to find the beast on the premise that the beast is not a real beast. As the son of the great Poseidon, I certainly have a good impression of this calibos, but it turned out to be so bad that it didn't waste Zeus' hatred of him. There is a history of love with Andromeda (how it looks like Korean sound, medameda) and was abandoned because of ugliness. This is influenced by the information conveyed by Perseus' question andromeda's hesitant eyes at the wedding of Andromeda and Perseus. Two people still love each other, right? Did not see it. But maybe it’s a little bit depressed, right? Still didn't see it. After thinking about it carefully, it is no wonder that the love between Perseus and Andromeda has not been seen, let alone the emotional drama of others. Of these two people, one is to be grateful for saving oneself, and then look at the handsome and subdued, and the other is to seek their own mission. What is the relationship?

Oh, maybe this is the message that the director hopes to deliver to the audience. Feelings are illusory in the realm of God, so let's be a human being.
