Long live the king

3D remakes and special screenings are actually just a means for Disney to swindle money after an old film returns after seventeen years. How's the effect? Damn it, everybody's so friggin' happy.

Today I went to see the one at 5:30, but the biggest hall of AMC was almost full. "It's a small world after all": There are old people with gray hair, young couples holding hands, and of course more or less happy families, children of all races, skin colors, and ages screaming in the hall Calling friends, jumping up and down, parents chatting with large bags of popcorn, candies and chocolates in their hands. Some young parents seem to be extremely excited. Perhaps their parents led them to watch this film in the cinema 17 years ago, and now it is their turn to take their children to appreciate the touch of that year. Well, it's the Circle of Life, and it moves us all.

The impact of this film on the United States and even the world’s culture is estimated to be unclear when writing a doctoral dissertation, so the chicks about the film itself can be skipped-how familiar should Americans be with this film? In addition, today there are more children with less scruples, so as long as Uncle Scar has a mouth, countless Jeremy Irons will spring up from all corners of the theater, making people laugh and suffocate so hard; how many people have acted in so many versions Claudius, none of them has more influence than the Lion version of Lord Irons. Besides, besides the idiot who really looks at Shakespeare, who knows which spring onion Claudius is: "Huh, Hamlet? ... I only watched the Lion King. "When Be Prepare sounded, he smiled without suspense because of a damn professor's video. The little boy sitting next to him looked at me with contempt through his gentle and strong father. Com'n now, kiddo. You'll get there, you will.

I laughed where I should laugh, and I cried where I should cry. This film was introduced to China in about 1995, which means that I haven't grown at all in 16 years. I'm really sorry. Probably I will never have that kind of self-control. When the helpless little Simba burrows into the arms of his dead father in tears, I can remain calm, or when the prince fights the usurper, I can hold back his fist. I yelled "Murderer!" with him in my heart, but when I saw Ding Man and Peng Peng, I finally got a smile: you want proof of how gay parents can also raise awesome children? Allow me to introduce Timon, Pumbaa and their adopted son Simba.

In fact, this is also a wonderful first time for me-this is the first time I have seen the original soundtrack of the Lion King on the big screen, and I paid an extra five yuan for ETX to make this a bull. The forceful dubbing cast is even more lethal, making people feel that the anti-socialists feel that the dubbing of cartoons nowadays is weak: think about it, not only the voice of everyone in the Lion King is amazing and beautiful, You can also hear Jeremy Irons chanting, Rowan Atkinson’s ridiculous tone, and Nathan Lane and Matthew Broderick Tony Award-level singing. Now everyone is dubbing a few hums to take money away, how can there be any more money? The mood of spending time and energy recording a record. Not only that, in fact, everything about the Lion King can only be left as a legend in the history of movies. No animation can climb to the same height in economic, cultural, and social influence, and there is no animation anymore. Being able to make such a deep mark in the hearts of a generation, they are willing to take their children into the cinema again in a dozen years, and pay out the movie ticket money that is several times that of the cheating father a dozen years ago. ——The relationship between the movie and the audience is actually like Zhou Yu's fight against Huang Gai, one willing to fight and the other willing to suffer, but now it is a pity that there are still many Huang Gai, but Zhou Yu is too few.

In fact, what moved me most today was the father and son sitting next to me. Before the opening, my father held a pack of M&M firmly in his hand, and the youngest son stared eagerly to eat. My father patiently persuaded that we must wait until after the opening. So the whole trailer time was spent in the milky "Are you going to start? The next one!" The movie finally opened, and after the younger son got his wish and ate the chocolate, the father began to dishonestly grab the lines with Uncle Scar. , I was happy to explode on the side, biting my cheek in order to suffocate my smile. And when the movie showed that little Simba was snuggling in the arms of the dead Mufasa, the father next to me bent down, hugged the little son tightly with both hands, and kissed his son’s forehead. My tears were shining. It's down in one fell swoop. Maybe sometimes it's not that we can't see angels, but that we are too bad at finding moving.

In short, the Lion King not only allows us to return to our childhood, but also allows us to grow up again. So, no matter whether it is 3D or 3D, if you have the opportunity, I advise you to check it out. Even if you just greet yourself sixteen years ago, it's good.

The Lion King quotes

  • Pumbaa: Anything we can do?

    Young Simba: Not unless you can change the past.

  • Scar: Simba. What have you done?

    Young Simba: There were wildebeests, and he tried to save me. It was an accident. I didn't mean for it to happen.

    Scar: Of course. Of course you didn't. No one ever means for these things to happen. But the king is dead. And if it weren't for you, he'd still be alive.
