Some people believe that people who talk about things in this philosophical type of film are suspected of being coercive, whether it is praise or derogation. You can only comment on comedies, no matter what you say, you will become a professional film critic, because laughter is something everyone can do. So I am also equipped to accept the fate of being spit out, but if I have to argue again, I am really just a simple movie viewer, not even a movie viewer in a movie theater. I watch it with my laptop.
I don’t need to say more about the scenes at the beginning of the movie. When I watched it at home, I was worried about my family’s misunderstanding, so I changed positions. The hero and heroine played happily, you know. And at the end of the movie is a segment where the heroine and the philosophy teacher discuss whether the hero is smart enough. If you skip the middle section directly, you can distill this film into keywords such as dick silk, green tea bitch, and unspoken rules. This is in line with the current value system of the celestial dynasty, but people have set the title as Doomsday and Philosopher, so I am afraid we still have to break our thinking. The entanglement between the heroine and the philosophy teacher is indeed the reason why the philosophy teacher set up this philosophy class. Freud called this sexual jealousy. The philosophy teacher deliberately let the male and female protagonists get a fixed role label, which is nothing more than a step-by-step humiliation of the male protagonist and this way to win the hearts of the girls. Even in the celestial dynasty, there is no beautiful girl who is a structural engineer who would like to be a gay farmer. You must know that many people who are less than 18 years old are complaining about not being able to marry or being a life-long lover. And the teacher keeps claiming that as a person with mysterious knowledge, he is nothing more than a representative of power. He knows the escape code, he knows where the gun is hidden, he can pull out the gun to end people’s lives, and he can force others with a gun. Will. At the beginning of the experiment, some students pointed out that the Nazis planned this experiment around 1939, and the teacher argued that the goal of this experiment was not to select outstanding races, which was indeed not, but the deep goal was indeed to show who was outstanding. Lovers, and what is the substantial difference between a good race and a good lover? Besides, he is still a mysterious man who has mastered all the power of life and death.
I played a mental game when I was in college. I said that there are five kinds of animals in the forest: monkeys, tigers, peacocks, dogs, and elephants. They are also in danger, so they need to accompany people to move forward, but because of food For water or other reasons, we must discard an animal for a period of time. Now as this person, how do we choose the order of discarding the animals and give reasons. Many people ranked and gave reasons, but almost most people gave reasons of the same type, that is, what is the use of this animal to me, they are pragmatists, for example, elephants can ride, and dogs are humans. My friend, monkeys are noisy, peacocks are useless, tigers are terrible... When I said my reasons, everyone laughed at my strange answer, I said I just arranged them according to their body shape, because the smaller The more difficult it is to protect yourself, the more difficult it is to protect yourself and leave first, and the more difficult it is to stay with me for a longer time. What I think about is what role I have for these animals.
In this movie, the director used more beautiful pictures and stories to show a similar psychological game. In the first thought experiment, the key to 10 people among 21 people who decided to enter a bunker that could not be destroyed by nuclear war was their future functions, and these functions were actually the knowledge stored in their brains, and their survival was guaranteed. The existence of such knowledge, once the danger has passed, the development of the world will rely on these people who have made achievements in their respective fields, and in these fields, others may not be able to intervene. This is a selfish world of knowledge. In the first experiment, how did these people spend a year? Most of the time they ate, drank, and read without much communication until they found that they really couldn’t escape the bunker. It's no use being selfish to die and pass away.
Understand the importance of a philosophy teacher, they let him in for the second time. This time, who can enter is not only for the role of the future, but also for their past experience. The useless future cannot be accepted, and the flawed past will also be eliminated. This time the screening is even harsher, and it can even be bearable. Than the blind date scene. The selected people also shoulder the mission of expanding the human gene pool, so in the second thought experiment they have more contact, that is sex. In the name of continuation of the human mission, the men and women in the bunker were matched according to their own wishes at the beginning, but after a while, they were disappointed that no girl was pregnant at all. The philosophy teacher requested to expand the pairing combination to increase the probability of pregnancy. Of course, it is impossible for the girl to accept such a noble mission. Therefore, the teacher who was injured physically and mentally in the conflict opened the bunker and died with everyone. I don’t know if it was the revenge of courtship failure or the despair of not seeing the future of mankind. This is a subconscious problem. . But what is certain is that they are still living in a selfish world, there is no communication between them, and some are just obligatory oppression.
In the third thought experiment, I saw through the dictatorship of the philosophy teacher, and resistance became inevitable. After obtaining the escape code and guns, the right to choose also fell into the hands of this group of free young people, who once seemed useless. Become the first choice. Wine auctioneers, fashion designers, harp players, singers, etc., especially the poor poet who was shot twice as soon as he said his identity also entered the bunker, and everyone else Fled one after another. This time in the bunker for a year, this group of people with expertise in culture, art and life, they share, they communicate, they bring each other happiness in life, they create, they change, and they make each other better. They rehearsed Shakespeare’s plays, they built a harp for the harpist, the singer brought singing, and the bartender brought delicious food. In this bunker, it is not just survival, but life, a wonderful life, even The ice cream maker who can't give full play to his professional advantages is also dancing in this room. Finally, when they walked out of the bunker, they found that they had not experienced a catastrophe, and that the nuclear bomb had not exploded here. The only thing was that the lingering philosophy teacher threatened to use the pistol holding the last child to end their irrational actions to end humanity. Survival, of course, is aimed at his rival in love. And these people who have lived a wonderful life together are willing to stand in front of each other, dedicate themselves to save others. This time an undetonated nuclear bomb fell from the sky, with a detonation button on it. The first two nuclear bomb explosions were not based on personal will, but this time the nuclear bomb explosion is one of your own choice. The first two seem to be carrying the mission of mankind, but this time it is according to one's own wishes. To choose life and death, which one is the real life?
Stallone said in "First Blood 4": "Live for nothing or die for something." Isn't the end of human beings also death? In fact, no matter which 10 people you choose, that combination really has nothing to do with this person's background, appearance, specialty, role, or contribution, but how you choose to unite with other people to live a wonderful life. Many people have racked their brains to think about the meaning of life because of the boredom and suffering in life. Now the movie tells you that the meaning of life is to extend the hope of mankind, such a great thing, but when you know that the ending can affect your life. How effective is change?
We don’t need philosophers in our modern world because we don’t think they are useful, but in the world of philosophers, we are doing things that God can only do with our brains. We have to design ourselves. If the end of the world comes, how can mankind escape the catastrophe of death? We rely on knowledge, we rely on weeding out the weak to preserve the strong, or we rely on unity and mutual dedication. Maybe our ending is the same as death, but if there is no philosopher-like thinking, even if there is a glimmer of hope that we can survive, but we don’t have time to think about it before the end, that’s a real regret, but there is no time. Regret it. So I saw the need for philosophers.
I also saw the necessity of a poet, even if he died many times. If we survive the end of the day, no one will pass on to their descendants the outstanding deeds of those who are free, united, dedicated, unwilling to endure and create happiness with the most beautiful or simple words that can move people’s hearts. If they do, they will not understand that the goodness in their genes is not from selfishness but from sharing.
The movie "Ratuitouille" said: Not everyone can be a great artist, but a great artist can come from any corner. I can also say: everyone can make complaints, but not everyone can make great complaints.
