"In-Depth" Analysis of the Plot of "Jupiter Ascending"

Yesterday, I watched "Jupiter Ascend", and I thought it was great; I searched for film reviews and found that netizens said that the special effects were good, but the plot was clichéd and was generally a bad movie. I don't understand this-this woman has outstanding looks, but she has only a few affections, and her negative points are so rough! -Is this the truth? You all have won the true biography of Brother! Besides, in fact, the plot design can be considered carefully, let me demonstrate what is the eye (nao) eye (dong) of discovering beauty.

We only talk about the plot, not the awesome graphics and soundtrack.

Warning: There are a lot of spoilers below. You have to read this article before going to the movie. Then I think it

's okay. ^ ^ The heroine's life is introduced at the beginning of the film. My dad was shot and killed by a robber before she was born. This foreshadowing is very important and has at least two effects: First, who would call his daughter "Jupiter", this is definitely a dad between art and 2b, and my mother introduced It is between ordinary and artistic, so if my father does not die, my mother will not agree to the name in all likelihood. Here is a sentence. The movie title "Jupiter Ascending" is obviously a double. Second, if it wasn't for the heroine's lack of paternal love since she was a child, how could she fall in love with a retired veteran so quickly.

The picture cuts to space, the iconic Jupiter's Great Red Spot, and the base camp of the big boss Balem played by Eddie, the "Little Freckle", is on Jupiter. Those friends who complain about this film and Jupiter have nothing to do with Jupiter, suggest ordering a set of "One Hundred Thousand Whys" to learn about astronomy and Roman mythology.

Then two people came out in a place that looked quite advanced, but had just suffered a catastrophe and left no one inhabited. (This sentence seems to be wrong). They are the little boss Titus played by Douglas, the male model of drooling, and his sister Kalique-two in this film. One of the big NPCs, the other is Stinger played by Sean Bean; the two are mainly responsible for background explanations, and we can understand them as slow sheep. Suddenly the elder brother of the siblings, the big boss Balem, popped up out of thin air, and noticed that he looked a bit "aged", echoing the "bath" that followed. The three had a cordial conversation, and finally reached a consensus: the earth is a good place, we will intrigue and see who has the ability to take it as his own! In the meantime, the characteristics of the elder brother narcissistic, the second sister's scheming bitch, and the third brother's big liar are all exposed; I believe such a delicate dialogue must be written by Lana Wachowski, who was both a brother and a sister.

The following is the official debut of the male and female protagonists. The hostess’s job is to clean the toilet, wash~wash~wash~brush, although so full and joyful, she hates her life very much. The purpose of this paragraph should be to resonate with the majority of young women who live ordinary lives. After substituting, they can move to a climax step by step with the development of the plot; it is a routine with "Fifty Shades of Grey", both of which belong to the "Su" school. As it should be, the male protagonist must be good enough. Since the role of Gao Fushuai has been taken away by the bosses, the male protagonist will return to the classic Hollywood Contra hero. Although the male protagonist himself said that he was created by the genetic fusion of humans and wolves, considering that he originally had a pair of wings and had super dynamic vision, he should at least contain the gene of an eagle; I believe it anyway. The most outstanding male protagonist is none other than that pair of boots. People on the Internet call skate shoes, but I don’t agree with it: this shoe can make people fly out of thin air without rubbing against the ground at all, and it can also generate high temperature. Obviously It's Hot Wheels! Reminder: There is already the same style on a certain treasure, 288 free shipping!

Little Freckle Balem must feel that his previous appearances were too plain. This time I will make a grand and gorgeous one. Let’s take a bath to become younger, and then come to pick up a few dragon monsters. The luxurious car seats are also extended. ,Um! This time the pomp is big enough. Balem decreed to do Katharine Dunlevy for me! Wait a minute, who is this person? Isn’t the protagonist called Jupiter? Oh~ It turned out to be a blonde and blue-eyed beauty. Her only role in this film is to wear underwear that is not very sexy and sell meat; even though it is a "Su" film, it should be appropriate to please the male audience, although this paragraph seems to be cut. Lost. . . So why did Balem kill her, because the hostess pretended to use her name to sell eggs; then why did Balem kill the hostess? Later two NPCs will tell us, don’t look at Jupiter’s job of cleaning the toilet. The previous life was the queen who ruled the largest family business in the universe! See who dare to look down on cleaners! Moreover, the high-level alien society only recognizes genes. Even if the heroine doesn't understand the queen's self-cultivation at all (in fact, some otaku don't understand), the law still recognizes her royal status. As for why there is such a strange law, we will talk about it later.

Speaking of selling eggs, the hostess had no money to buy the telescope she liked, so she took over this business at the instigation of her cousin. She is really a cousin! Does the hostess really like telescopes? Judging from her entry into space, she is not surprised at all. She should only want to buy telescopes after hearing the story of her father. The hostess was almost killed in the hospital by a group of monsters that looked like Guru in the Lord of the Rings. This tells us a truth: irrational consumption is terrible!

Fortunately, the male protagonist arrived in time to save the female protagonist, and first fought an indoor battle with the monsters. Obviously this was just a warm-up, a short break, and another aerial battle. This air battle lasted a little longer, and some viewers might look a little dizzy, so they went to the bathroom to get some air, and when they came back, it happened to be the cosplay of the heroine and the Princess of Zhugegei, only the bees were attracted. Then Stinger, the beekeeping expert, first gave the male protagonist a violent beating, because after that, he was no longer useful except for simply firing two shots; when he was cool, he would introduce background knowledge to us and talk about the spider spirits in Journey to the West. Before going to rescue Bai Jingjing, beating her second master means one thing.

The enemy soon came again. The male protagonist just took off his clothes and didn't have time to put on a few more poses, show off his figure, and went to fight half-naked. This time the enemy brought a seemingly powerful gun, with an oversized caliber, but it couldn't kill people, let alone people, even bees. I guess this is actually not a gun, but a powerful searchlight that also has the function of a loudspeaker. The heroine was blinded and deafened; of course it was temporary, and it was all right after the "soak in a bath". At this time, the male protagonist was able to fly with eighteen martial arts, and when he remembered the female protagonist, the three bounty hunters sent by the second sister Kalique had rescued her and brought her into the flying machine. The male lead took the wing and flew through the space tunnel to the second sister's castle. Wait, he can go into space half-naked without any problems? Maybe genetically modified people are so headstrong, ok I accept this setting.

It was finally Kalique popular science time, and Duang was back 20 years old in a short time by taking a bath while popularizing science. Combining her and Stinger's explanations (in fact, some of them are mentioned later by Titus), we learned that the earth is only a farm under the Abrasax family, and the breeding objects are us humans; these aliens first exterminated the dinosaurs on the earth Then, let humans start to multiply. When there are enough people on the earth, they can come to "harvest"-that is, kill everyone on the earth and use it to make a "shower gel" that can rejuvenate (in the beginning) The planet where the three Abrasax family chatted was just "harvested"; the screenwriter asked Kalique to explain by the way why clones could not be used to produce "shower gel", it was very careful). The bounty of the three bounty hunters is also a few bottles of "shower gel"; as Kalique said, the most precious resource in the universe is time. It’s hard to imagine that this was the words spoken by an old demon who had lived for more than 14,000 years, but when she said that her mother, the heroine’s previous life, had lived more than 90,000 years old when she was murdered. At the time, I suddenly understood everything; as for what I understand, we will talk about it later.

Huh? Why does this line seem familiar? By the way, let's explain why high-tech aliens have such a weird law to determine their identity by genes. Kalique said that a person’s genetic arrangement is Ta’s own ID, which determines who Ta is; this is obviously nonsense. It’s impossible for these aliens to know that individuals of the same gene may have very different external performances in different growth environments. , And more importantly, the memory can’t be the same, so this paragraph is about satirizing racists. Back to the topic, imagine that you are one of the rulers of the universe, no accident and will not die. Of course you want to rule for a long time; but in case of an accident, then find out the reincarnation with the same gene as yourself. It is a good way to continue to be a royal family. This plan is beneficial to all living royal families, and naturally it is easy to be accepted as a law. But here comes the problem. When a royal family really dies, by inheriting the inheritance, other royal families can gain greater power. In this way, who would be willing to work hard to find Ta's reincarnation? What's even more frightening is that not only do you not look for it, but once you learn about the reincarnation, you will send someone to kill Ta! Just like Balem did to Jupiter.

After the science popularization is over, the long sleeve space police pick up the heroine and take back the ownership of the earth. I forgot to mention that the earth originally belonged to the heroine's previous life, and Balem obtained it through inheritance; and the heroine's previous life stated in her will that her reincarnation has the right to take back the ownership of the earth. The director here spent several shots complaining about the cumbersome and football-like work process of government agencies, as well as corruption; it seems that anti-corruption is not only a problem in China, but also a problem in the world, and even a problem in the universe! Perhaps the director himself has a deep understanding, of course, I am not referring to the State Administration of Radio, Film and Television. In the end, it finally entered the genetic certification link. The person in charge of such an important work turned out to be just an old man, just one person, and the equipment was in disrepair for a long time. It can be seen that no one has come for certification for a long time. This also confirms what I just said, in fact, no one will seriously look for reincarnation at all. If it weren't for the heirs of the Abrasax family to fight for the earth, maybe Jupiter would have used the toilet for a lifetime (even though she still chose to use the toilet after she became a queen). Of course, it is possible that other royal families have not died yet, but I think this possibility is extremely small. On the one hand, it’s normal to fly around all over the world, and it’s normal for an accident to happen in thousands of years. It is so clear that it has appeared several times before.

The earth arrived smoothly, and after swaying for so long, it was time to enter the boss battle, and the little boss Titus came first. Titus took the hostess to the warehouse where the "shower gel" was stored and told her that only 100 people's essence is enough to produce one bottle. Snapped! The heroine shook her small hand, and 100 people died in vain. . . Titus said, it's okay. I think the past two days have been well spent. Why don't we get married; the hostess hesitated for a while, but still couldn't hold back soft and hard and agreed. Wait a minute, isn't this incest? ——What do you know, stupid earthling! ——Hold on, what about the hero? The male protagonist was thrown into outer space by Titus. Titus also told him by the way that in fact, he just wanted to occupy the earth. After getting married, he would kill the female protagonist immediately, so that he could obtain the inheritance of the earth. I have to say that Titus's conspiracy is very good, it is completely tailored for the heroine. Considering that his hobby is to try various difficult poses, this conspiracy should have been thought up in the time of the sage. When the male protagonist was thrown out of the spaceship, I thought that the male protagonist would be full of blood and evil spirits to save the female protagonist when he wakes up with a cold wind in outer space. Who knows that the male protagonist looks like he is about to hang up when he gets outside, hello! Director~ Did you take the wrong script? The director said hehe~ Don’t care about these details, as the plot requires, the police will come to rescue him soon; on the contrary, the idea of ​​"blowing the cold wind" is very good. I will add a hair dryer to the protagonist’s shoes in the next movie, made in China. Lingling paint is the same style!

Not to mention the following plot, the male protagonist cut off the marriage between the female protagonist and the little boss at the very moment. Titus smiled and said, don't get excited, this is just a fashion show, I can't help you if you don't understand fashion; if you want to go to my big brother, he is the villain! The hostess thinks it makes sense, but she wants to go home and have a look before playing the big boss. Who knows that her family has been taken away by the boss, the remaining men said, Your Majesty Balem was afraid that it would be too troublesome for you to rush to the Queen, so he took your family to Jupiter. Anyway, the final battle will be on Jupiter. The hostess suddenly became angry, and the bastard said earlier that he made the old lady run for nothing, and then went to Jupiter to find the eldest son to settle the account.

To be honest, Balem disappointed me too much. He lived for tens of thousands of years and mastered all kinds of high-tech big bosses. He could only take hostages, a trick that had been used a long time ago. He also talked a lot of nonsense. ——This is really a fatal injury to the bosses. Sure enough, the feminist bluffed rightfully, and there was not much time left in the film, and the director had to speed up the progress and let the male lead rush to disrupt the situation. Finally, Balem was beaten to the teeth by the heroine, shouting hoarsely, "Mom~ You begged me to kill you! You begged me!" Let’s pause, this sentence reveals an extremely important message. This is what I said earlier that I suddenly understood: After more than 90,000 years of tempering in the previous life of the heroine, it has reached a legendary realm. The three words are "live•greasy• too"! This level of realm is far beyond the reach of the lustful eldest son, the daughter who loves to work, and the youngest son who is sensual. Obviously, Balem hasn't understood this truth yet, and the hostess had to use the strength of flushing the toilet to give him a lesson. It's a deep love and responsibility!

The big boss hung up, and the heroine returned to the earth and started cleaning the toilet again. The film here fully reflects the word "dedication" in the core values ​​of socialism. And the efficiency of her toilet flushing is greatly improved, because she still has to date the male protagonist on the top of the building. This tells us another truth: work efficiency at work depends on what you do after get off work! If you work overtime every day, I haven't said it. The hero finally showed off his wings. I was expecting you to fight with wings. I didn't expect you to use them for flirting! Maybe the director thinks skate shoes, oh no, Hot Wheels is more cool than wings.

Okay, the popcorn is just finished! Look, are you still not satisfied with such an ups and downs plot? (Obviously a running account, okay -_-)

Two points are added:
1. Sister Wachowski still fears that the world will not be chaotic, just like Putnam who proposed "brain in a tank" to live well and must play a bad role in the world view. Just satisfied. The brothers and sisters also subverted religion through Kalique's mouth, but it can't be said too detailed. It is estimated that they will be banned if they play "This Man Comes From Earth".
2. The most classic line of the film: "I love dogs!" Facing the girls who can't talk about male gods, you know!
