Many people complain that the male protagonist is black. In fact, this is not the main reason for the poor perception. The main reason is that the show is a bit silly.
In fact, at first I had no problem with Black Arthur, it was just okay. The male protagonist is a little handsome, and the fat white female protagonist and the black and thin male protagonist are okay too. But it looks like that's not the case.
Let's talk about Arthur first, this guy is not of good quality. He is not the heroic ruthlessness of Prime Minister Cao who would rather let me be blamed by the world than let the world be blamed on me, nor is it the kind of Han Gaozu who roamed the market and was abducted and deceived. Yu Se, let you be a cow and a horse first and chop you up in a blink of an eye, yes, it is true, no one wants to play with you. Later, it was not bad to wash him, but just because he stole the sword of the heroine's mother's last wish at the beginning, and made up a lot of nonsense, you can't look at him.
Besides, he's a bum, a little bastard, and he doesn't do well. Look at Arthur, the little gangster next door to Guy Ritchie, whether he is self-taught, makes friends with brothers and starts small gangs, collects protection fees, fights with Vikings, and protects the woman who raised him. This is the king. At least they have the potential to become kings. But is this Arthur too useless? After all, he will be the man who will rule Britain in the future, and he has no talent at all. Of course, the screenwriter may have come back to his senses later and added a few scenes to show his IQ, but I feel that the effect is very small. He's not as annoying as the male protagonist at all. In short, there is little human glory in him, and he has no talent. You say that he is King Arthur. I only think that the stories in fairy tales are deceptive.
Then Nimue. This play is obviously very feminist, the heroine is Queen Fay, Morgana and the black female warrior are also leaders, the great wizard of the Moonwing tribe is a woman, and the queen dowager is smarter than King Uther. It's okay, I've always wanted to see a show that embodies the power of women. But this one is not.
First and foremost, she's not smart either. The naked eye is not smart. There is a problem with this show, the protagonists don't have a consistent and successfully implemented strategy, they are always on the move, encountering a turning point on the way, this is an adventure story, but it should not be King Arthur to rule Britain or the minority queen to fight for the people A legend of the right to live. In war, there must be a strategy. It can be a distant attack or a close attack, or an alliance with Wu and Cao Cao. This kind of step by step will not have the last laugh. As the protagonist, the leader of the party, she is not smart to be like that, which is annoying.
Regarding feminism, I think it's a bit deliberate. Both king and queen are leaders, and the quality depends on whether they can defend their homes and how much happiness they can bring to the people. And all kinds of people in the play are obviously a little too longing for the word queen. It would be comfortable if a few queens were quietly portrayed as leaders in rebuilding mountains and rivers.
And the female protagonist's mind is greatly affected by the sword, which makes it impossible to connect her with the queen. I know that I want to use the magic of the sword to metaphorize the corruption of power on people. But after taking it for a while, it's crazy to that extent, can this be a queen? Now that a brilliant female leader has been established, let her stand in awe. Whether the king is a woman or a man, he can't be silly and sweet. However, both the heroine and the hero are so silly and sweet. The heroine is at least a kind-hearted idiot, and the male protagonist is a bastard and an angry idiot (yes, I just can't let go of stealing the sword, and I can't make it back no matter what happened to me)
Then another problem is that I think the writer's idea is not very good. This is a matter of opinion, I will only express my own opinion. I learned that the archetypal character of King Arthur was the leader of the Celts against the Germanic barbarians, when they were abandoned by the Holy See and coincided with the Saxon invasion, some Roman soldiers and local knights organized to fight the invading barbarians, and also to fight Vikings of the North. What was supposed to be a terrific story of resistance to invaders, the writers or directors turned it into a race war, with Christianity bearing the brunt of it.
It is worth noting that the church at that time did oppress the people, but not against minorities as in the play, but against all poor people and all women. What they burned was not an alien, nor a witch or a female elf, but an ordinary woman. This is the reason why people will resist him in the end. The Renaissance and the religious reform did not stop the persecution of ethnic minorities, but to stop the persecution of ethnic minorities. Liberate all oppressed by inhumane Christian teachings.
It was the historical factors and grand epics that had such far-reaching influence that turned them into oppression and resistance against ethnic minorities. Maybe the US imperialists have their own national conditions here.
The only thing I like is the heroine's best friend and the Viking warrior. Although the little girl is not very stunning, she looks so comfortable. She has big eyes and smart looks. The Viking warriors are also very handsome and have a normal brain. He looks so gentle, what a good person to send a lunch box, but the male protagonist is more and more happy, how thin the sky is.
The only expectation now is that Guinevere is a peerless beauty, and then talk to Lancelot about a shocking sadomasochism, or else I will be blind to the fairy tale setting of this show, how about other loves? Bar.
