My friend worked overtime until late at night, and when he passed the door of a famous PE office in the corridor, he heard a woman panting out of it. He stopped at the door for a minute, and felt the huge emptiness of his twenty-four-year-old life after washing away his exhaustion. He told me that this might be the greatest romantic imagination he could see as a capital slave.
The next day, when it was clear and sunny, I took him to the window and pointed to the apron on the top of the big pants. I said you were wrong. Imagine if you saw the evil Ultron flying across the sky and stopping on that tarmac. Then, he took out the matrix he had snatched from the Iron Man laboratory and inserted it into the top of the big pants. In the rumbling, where the smoke and dust rose, the entire steel-reinforced-structured panties stood upright into the sky in the fall of countless glass shards, turning into a huge and hideous steel diamond. The steel King Kong stood upright like a Pangu, and picked up the third phase of the China World Trade Center around him, turning it into a weapon and killing him violently. This huge steel metal worked hard, and in a moment, Fortune, China Central Place, Kerry Center, and the entire office building from the Agricultural Exhibition Hall to the International Trade Center all turned into big and small clowns and incomparable steel King Kong.
These steel kings shouted at the sun in the Beijing sky: "I Claim Your Sun". People began to flee in a hurry.
It was the catkins season in Beijing at that moment. We stood in front of the glass windows, imagining such a scene, and we were moved. A friend said that he saw top-dressed ol girls and men in three-piece suits and bow ties falling down from the office building. He was going to rescue those girls, invite them to drink, and join them. I said to look carefully. At this time, Iron Man Tony Stark will wear his scarred Mark 42 armor and fly over from the direction of Xishan, and draw a long white line in the sky. Captain America will jump off the plane and insert the shield into Pangu King Kong’s eyes; Thor will fall from the clouds, Black Widow and Hawkeye will emerge from the Park Hyatt Hotel, and the great Hulk Hulk, Hulk will be from Yongan The subway exit inside jumped out, and he would raise the fist of the Avengers, and razed the steel King Kong transformed by the big pants to the ground.
However, all these fantasies have never happened from beginning to end, every morning, every evening or late at night, never happened. When skyscrapers stand tall, why do we want them to fall in the movie? Or in other words, when we know that Captain America has never won World War II, Iron Man did not fly out of a cave in Afghanistan, and Bruce Banner as a human being is simply unable to withstand such a powerful ray to become a Hulk, why on earth did we do it? These fantasies?
Paradox and trauma cast heroes. The main heroes of the Avengers are more of a combination of ideological paradoxes from the beginning. Skeptics can easily see the naked American ideology from everyone—all superheroes are related to The wars that the United States has experienced since the Great Depression are directly related. Captain America directly participated in the battle with Hitler, and his weapon turned out to be a shield of "American exceptionalism". This shield was mainly defensive, but indestructible; Tony leapt out of a cave in Vietnam, and in 21st In the century, he cast the prototype of Iron Man in a cave in Afghanistan. The enemy has changed from communism to terrorism, but what remains unchanged is the American air supremacy and scientific and technological belief theory; the green color of Hulk is from a print The accident of the industry, but there is no doubt that the Hulk is the legacy of the scars of the Vietnam War; not to mention the Soviet surrender spies like the Black Widow. This is also the main difference between the Avengers and DC heroes who are entangled in the justice of a small community (Superman guards Metropolis, Batman is the night knight of Gotham), but the Avengers never shy away from their superhero identity, and in the movie In the first battle in, he chose to fight against alien monsters under live broadcasts all over the world.
When I watched the reunion 1, I thought that among the reporters who reported on the New York incident, there might be Clark Kent from The Planet, and Batman was sitting in the darkness of the Batcave, ready to go, watching everything happening in New York with a monitor. , Listening to Gotham's never-ending rain, frowned. In this regard, DC's best stories are not suitable for carnivals compared to Marvel.
Too rough ideology has not been experimented in small city-states, and it is difficult to create a truly great villain (Supervillain). This may be one of the reasons why Fulian 2 is unpleasant. James Spader is old and handsome, and the Ultron he has dubbed is already very good. But in the past, people have seen Heath Ledger’s clown say "I am just a dog chasing cars" on the screen. The pinnacle of anarchism, the irony of modern psychology, the utter contempt for human nature, the philosophical literacy of the clown is much more refined than the ideology of any villain in the reunion, and the later super villains have been difficult to go further. To be able to try, it can only be that the reified actors run into each specific scene one after another, looking forward to a flash of light. How can a Ultron who only relies on dubbing and is covered in steel to be pleasing? He is so strong in the comics, but he is somewhat vulnerable in the reunion 2. Fulian 2 chooses the ever-changing artificial intelligence to discuss it, which is actually a choice that meets its prosperity. However, the ending seems too much and insufficient. In contrast, Loki, who is willing to be self-deprecating and has obvious character flaws, is much cuter than Ochuang.
But criticizing Fulian 2 is also a mediocrity. The essence of superhero movies is actually more like pornographic movies-the uncertainty of the outcome is non-existent. People can foresee the ending from the beginning, but look forward to the running-in and flirting before the final climax. Therefore, the gag is less, the rhythm is chaotic, and the fists are soft. The audience went out of the premiere and said that Fulian 2 was not as "fun" as Fulian 1, but I liked Fulian 2 and Fulian 1. Umberto Eco has said in "The Myth of Superman", why do we need superheroes from Hercules to Superman himself? Individuals in the industrial society have been deprived of decision-making in the organization, and therefore have lost the power to make decisions. The physical body of a superhero represents us who are entangled, despised, and despised in the mundane complex life. However, in that moment, we can shed this heavy body and give birth to a superhero.
We long for those heroes to have the abilities we long for but will never be able to hold. This huge space of imagination, the subconscious attempt of people to bridge the gap between their own abilities and the expectations of their social arrangements, has constructed an extremely moist womb, which has become the source of countless superheroes. Our cognition of the boundaries of our own abilities and the advent of the golden age of today’s superhero movies are mutually inextricably and inwardly, forming a relative picture of forgetfulness. Superheroes obtain superpowers from the activities of our dream cerebral cortex, which we praised. In the voice, self-satisfied and survived.
The superhero movie "has both face and lining" is an extravagant hope that is too critical. Tolerance to superheroes is also tolerance to ourselves. You can't ask for full blame and count on virtual heroes, those with personality defects like us, who have been fighting for you and making you laugh all the time. We hope that the superheroes remain immortal, and we hope that they are like us, living in the flow of people from Gotham and Metropolis to Wudaokou and Anhe Bridge. When we say Tony Stark or Loki are interesting, we actually mean that he is more like ourselves. Only at this level can we understand some weird tastes for watching movies-Downey’s Iron Man is so successful, but he himself is an eight-year-old who smokes marijuana, repeatedly breaks into prison, and destroys his career at the peak of his career. The typical person with unsound personality. As for the Hulk, he is not as handsome as Eric Bana, and not as neurotic as Norton. Why do people generally think that this generation of Hulk played by Mark Ruffalo is worse than the previous two? The answer lies precisely here. The Mark Ruffalo version of the Hulk is more like us in reality. It is a gentle, slow and timid doctor genius. He always has a kind of hesitation and uncertainty about any personnel. It is when such a character becomes green in the extremely painful fission that the contrast between the two is heart-warming. In Avengers 2, he is more like the devil in "Faust", almost singing "I always wanted to do good, but always do evil" in his heart, and got on the plane alone to leave the crowd.
This generation of reunion collections are in harmony with the times, the place and the people, which is the luck of comics fans. Their goodness lies in this vitality but far from perfect reality. We hope that superheroes possess fabulous powers and resources, but only on a human, non-transcendental level, admire and fall in love with Bruce Wayne, Tony Stark or Bruce Banner. This double predicament not only provides the screenwriters of superheroes with constraints, barriers, and opportunities to seize the subtle relationship of this double tension to write great chapters (such as Miller's "The Dark Knight Returns"), but also provide readers and audiences with an opportunity to understand To this duo made a request.
Another reason why I am quite tolerant of Fulian 2 is precisely that for a nation that believes in the sage inside and outside the king and is accustomed to incarnate superheroes, China’s own superheroes no longer exist in the world of literature and art. People in our country who have already become famous will often speak contemptuously of the commercial narrative that superhero movies have taken away most of the box office, no matter how rubbish their own movies are. But to be fair, the reality of superheroes no longer exists in China’s literary world, and the reality that the superhero movies of American comics are surging in China, the discord in the middle is just like a generation of young people who desire power but live in Proof in the heavy shackles of cocoon.
The people do not need superheroes, they already have and will continue to be shaped in their own political ethics. But there are always naive people standing in front of the window, hoping to see that when all the bridges collapse and all the tall buildings sink, the green back figure jumps out of the dust.
