Long and gorgeous journey

When the first few movies of a certain film series are exciting enough and successful in business, they may get a classic seat in film history, which will also give rise to a privilege, the privilege of no longer failing at the box office, and even immunity from criticism. —— Their mainstream reputation is always good. The "Star Wars" series, the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, and the ended "Harry Potter" series are nothing more than this. With the thousands of fans gathered in the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy, and with the support of Peter Jackson and the support of new technologies, the "Hobbit" series will certainly not suffer a Waterloo-like failure, and the quality will not be too bad.

In the first "Unexpected Journey", except for the gimmick of 48-frame technology (the 48-frame version was not released in the Mainland), it caused a lot of controversy in the industry, and the rest of the reactions were expected. Fans of the "Lord of the Rings" are indulged in Middle-earth, Peter Jackson Amidst the doubts of a few people, he continued to steer the tube steadily, spent a large budget and collected a large amount of silver, and blatantly continued to implant the beautiful scenery of his native New Zealand. Real-time shooting and shooting in New Zealand, the breathtaking and magnificent scenery under the panoramic lens not only met the visual needs of the audience, but also promoted New Zealand's tourism industry.

Literature creates a fictitious world, stories are deposited in banks, and movies follow the pace of technological development, choose the right time to package the stories, and charge huge amounts of interest generated by literature. Fans nurtured by the original work may become pioneers in criticizing the film version, and more become loyal fans of the film version. The love for the original work has evolved into a wall of public opinion for the film, and critics are prohibited from entering. "The Hobbit" and "The Lord of the Rings" are written by the Englishman Tolkien. Compared with "Tinding" or "Harry Potter", Tolkien's Middle-earth is relatively unfamiliar in China. However, "The Devil" The vast number of fans cultivated by the trilogy of Caution is already enough to dominate the public opinion vane of The Hobbit.

Each of the "Lord of the Rings" trilogy is relatively complete. The original works are three books. "The Hobbit" is different. One book plus a few scattered parts is integrated into a "trilogy". I don't know if it is a blessing or bad. . "Unexpected Journey" is just a grand prologue. The Hobbit Baggins went on a long journey with the wizard Gandalf and the Thirteen Dwarves. It was not until the end that the dragon approached the dragon, and the real duel had not yet begun. As Jackson said, this It is an explanatory and detailed film, an explanation and explanation.

Fans who love "Middle-earth" can patiently enjoy the exquisite details and picturesque scenery; viewers who have no emotion to them may feel bored or even bored. Even if they are gorgeous, they can't resist the boring emotions. Time is too long. The Hobbit brothers stepped through the ups and downs, and finally met the real opponent, but it was over. This kind of "cheating" feeling was given once by the domestic product "Tai Chi". "The Hobbit" has the brilliance of "Lord of the Rings" as the foundation. Fans don't mind Jackson's approach and willingly promote this box office machine. "Tai Chi" does not have it, so it messed up.

Lengthiness is the biggest problem of "Unexpected Journey". For those who do not have the complex of the original book and "The Lord of the Rings", the only weapon to eliminate boredom is its visual effect. Regarding the plot, like watching most fantasy movies, you must adjust the logic of the time and follow the setting of the story. If you don’t adjust it, you will inevitably find some paragraphs ridiculous and mentally retarded. It is not as good as the setting of the game.

The hobbit transformed into a long in the adventurous journey. The story of the dwarf returning home is undoubtedly written with courage and glory. At the abrupt end, Jackson seemed to break the courage and glory into three parts. In the magical story corresponding to the real world, freedom and courage are shouted. In the real world, it is Jackson and a large-budget comprador marriage. He is not free. He is kidnapped by business. The length of the first part makes it boring. In terms of the situation, "The Hobbit" does not need to be a trilogy at all. The trilogy is three definite vaults, not a definite classic continuation. 【Sohu Entertainment】

    Ah ah, Chao Ye's cute little smile collection is really awesome! When the dwarves and Gandalf were overcoming the thorns and thorns, Master Chao lit up the whole movie, carrying a small schoolbag with two hand ridges on both sides of my body and talking British silly jokes, my whole body burned! The 3D+IMAX effect is amazing! When Gulu's two big watery eyes filled the entire giant screen, everyone was adorable~ The first scene of today's movie theater was full of people and they were all very excited~

    Well implemented the basic principle of "the first part of the trilogy is usually a super long trailer"
