The "A Space Odyssey" series is a classic work of the idol (Liu Cixin)'s idol (Arthur Clark), how can I miss it! The status of the "A Space Odyssey" series in the science fiction world is equivalent to that of "Shooting the Condor" to martial arts. Liu Cixin once modestly said that all of her creations were just a parody of Arthur Clarke. This is Liu Cixin's modest words to idols. After reading all of Clark's novels, I realized that Da Liu's works are indeed influenced by him a lot. If you have only watched movies, and have not seen the original four-part series, you will directly hit five stars. If you say classics, epics, they are basically pretending to be literary. It is better to hit one star and say that you can’t understand the grandstander. At first glance, the plot of this film is boring and incomprehensible. It almost violates the basic theories of all academic films. The characters, lines, and plot become insignificant, and the pictures, special effects, and soundtrack occupy a dominant position. "If someone feels that they fully understand what "2001: A Space Odyssey" is talking about, then I and the director Kubrick must have made a mistake."-How many literary and artistic youths were hit by the original author Clark's original words! This sentence is also considered to be the most compelling in the film industry. It is estimated that the Oscar judges of the year did not approve such a deep and obscure science fiction film. It only won the best visual effect award, and there was no best director award (only nominations). The film that did not win the Oscar for Best Picture is indeed recognized as one of the world's top 100 films, the insurmountable pinnacle of science fiction films. Why does Clark say that, because the story has three sequels! The four-part novel, the movie is only the first one, and it can be said to be an introduction. The really exciting climax is in the second part 2010 and the fourth part 3001, but the movie version of "2010" is far less famous than "2001: A Space Odyssey". Many of the details of the storyline are explained later. People who have not read the original will definitely be deceived, feeling that they are still unfinished, and feeling that there is no cause and effect is a normal reaction. (I don't want to spoiler, I strongly suggest you to read novels) In my humble opinion, it is difficult for this sci-fi movie of the 1960s to stand out from the perspective of the film itself, almost half a century later. Considering that the film was created before humans landed on the moon, the space scenes shown in the film can be said to be advanced, and the soundtrack is also a classic. More importantly, the film’s philosophical thinking is also advanced: the tiny human beings are in sharp contrast with the vastness of space and time; the history of humanity is only a moment in the long river of time and space in the universe; torturing "who am I from the perspective of the universe" , Where do I come from, where do I go?"; The issue of the coexistence of artificial intelligence and mankind is raised for the first time, whether scientific development will destroy or sublimate human society. The influence of these views on future sci-fi works is endless. The English name of the film is "2001 "space odyssey", the second half of the official Homer epic of "Odyssey", tells the story of one of the main generals of the Greek army, King Odysseus of Ithaca, who wandered for ten years and returned home after the end of the war. This It is also a symbolic metaphor to look at the birth, evolution, destruction and rebirth of life on earth from a higher perspective of the universe! How many classic sci-fi movies can see its shadow, the rectangular robot in "Interstellar" directed by Nolan, and the spaceship that rotates in a circle to create a spaceship that simulates the earth's gravity by centrifugal force are all related to this film. Salute; in addition, Liu Cixin's description of Cheng Xin in the third part of "The Three-Body" "Death God Eternal Life" when deciding whether to press the launcher of the sword-bearer: "The Archaean 2.1 billion years... Then humans appeared, and Compared with the previous long years, it was only a flash of a finger. The dynasty and the era changed like flames. The bone stick thrown into the air by the ancient ape became a spaceship before it fell back to the ground."-This description is also from this film. The epic montage editing is shocking to the audience. It is the grandeur and heroic feelings of millions of years of evolution on the scale of the universe. Audiences who have seen this lens will definitely be surging for the great evolution of mankind and the rapid development of technology. This not only explains the reason why Cheng Xin is unwilling to press the launcher of the sword-bearer, but also explains the insignificance of mankind and human history on a cosmic scale. The words of Clark’s friend, director Stanley Kubrick, are that "Clark gave us a new vision, allowing us to see that human beings are extending their hands from the cradle of the earth to their future in the stars." Always imitated, never surpassed! This is where the film really shines. Then humans appeared. Compared with the long years before, it was only a flick of a finger. The dynasty and the era changed like flames. The bone stick thrown into the air by the ancient ape became a spaceship before it fell back to the ground. "-This description is also from the epic montage editing in this film, which shocks the audience. It is the grandeur and heroic feelings that have evolved in the cosmic scale over millions of years.
