"Blockbuster"-Aesthetic fatigue

Watching "Transparent Man 2", while dozing off while watching the progress bar, I thought to myself, why is it not over yet? Fortunately, I didn't go to the theater to see it.
I really didn’t want to have the bad mood after watching "Hero". Before, I had hoped that I could treat "Promise" fairly. Therefore, I said more than once that "Promise" is not as bad as I imagined. To show how boring the internet spoof is, but when I recalled the above two movies today, I couldn’t remember the story. As for the characters, the complexity and thinness surprised me, not confused. , I simply forgot.
The only thing I can remember are two slippery pieces of silk, one covering Zhang Ziyi and Tony Leung's body, and the other covering Sanada Hiroyuki's ass.
These two films satisfy the people's infinite reverie about the flesh, while "Transparent Man 2" satisfies the infinite reverie of science and technology. Just for this, "Transparent Man 2" can be regarded as one of the best.
It is true that the "Transparent Man 1" that year shocked me very much. While watching the film in horror, I kept playing question marks in my mind. The transparent effect makes me puzzled. Later, after looking for the behind-the-scenes footage, I realized that the "blue cloth principle" was originally used, which is to wrap a layer of something on the person's body, and then use a computer to screen and process it. In the actual shooting process, every inch of the actor's hair must be painted with special blue paint, and then put on a special blue tights, and his eyes have to wear special blue contact lenses. When it comes to post-processing, the computer cuts out the blue part, which is equivalent to masking, and the environment part is preserved, so that a "transparent person" is created.
It should be said that the "Transparent Man" series is a super-protagonist movie. In "Transparent Man 1", the face of the male number one that is not handsome is not good or bad. In "Transparent Man 2," he completely gave way to special effects. There are two appearances before and after the 1st, and the total will not exceed five minutes. For a 120-minute movie, this actor is really sad! Although the face of the voice actor is "invisible" to the audience, the performance of the voice is also a kind of performance, and it is very brilliant if it is handled properly. In the "Transparent Man" series, in order to take care of the thrilling emotions of the whole show, there are very few lines. In this way, to put it bluntly, the male number one is a high-tech walking dead!
Big-name celebrities won’t buy this kind of film. Basically, they’re mostly Hollywood second-tier male stars. No. 1 is in such a situation that is not embarrassing or embarrassing, while the No. 1 female is simply the newcomer.
The film is a mess without loss, thanks to the stunts, the plot is pulled out, the old bottles are filled with new wine, and the loopholes are guaranteed to make you vomit. At the end, I will leave you with a suspense about the third episode. The optimism of the company and the director makes people reluctant.
Fortunately. I didn't spend it all. While preserving personality and IQ, we must also keep our deflated pockets.
