not bad

I remember that the first time I saw this name was in an English book a long time ago, and now I have the opportunity to watch this movie, but it doesn’t seem to bring up any memories of the past. Maybe it was because I didn’t have any impression at the time, maybe these things have become indifferent. . I just feel that the color of ET in the movie seems to be different from the pictures in the original book, maybe because I watched the 20th anniversary retrospective.
As an early science fiction film, it is still a good movie. I don’t know why it’s getting more and more moved by the things in the movie, but I tend to look on the sidelines indifferently, and always have a strong sense of substitution in the illusion. In reality, it seems indifferent and numb, and things that can always be moved in life are as rare as feathers, and the small shots in the movie can be filled with emotion. This may be an escape from the world.
If you look at it sensibly, there is nothing very moving in ET, and there are no enemies. Some are friendships between children. This kind of thing seems to be unaffected by anything, it seems to be just a mutual relationship. like.
ET should be regarded as a very advanced creature, much higher in intelligence than humans. Although the film did not say it, it can be seen that the ET that was dropped on the earth should not be an adult. Super learning and imitating ability, super developed brain, only by watching pictures and working on TV, you can master the principle and method of this information transmission, and make communication facilities that can connect with the same kind, and it can quickly understand the language. Understand, all of this is beyond human's reach. ET also showed strong "superpowers", able to heal wounds instantly, bring flowers back to life, and move objects. It can be seen from the film that ET requires a strong symbiotic relationship of mutual dependence. When he came to earth, the first person to establish a symbiotic relationship was Eliot, so they were able to sense each other’s thoughts. , And then the flower, so when ET was very weak and was about to die, both Eliot and the flower showed signs of death, but after all, the relationship he established with humans and plants cannot effectively maintain its life. After leaving his own ethnic group for a long time, his life was exhausted, so he seemed to cut off the contact with Eliot, and when he regained contact with his own race, he was rejuvenated. I don't know if the director is a mapping of human society when designing such a plot.
In fact, in "Three-Body" the author tells a very terrifying Black Forest theory. No civilization in the universe can actively expose its existence, otherwise it will bring destruction. This theory sometimes feels very reasonable. But at least now no one can verify this theory. But before that, we can only hope that other creatures that can visit the earth do not have a world view like human beings. After all, all human logic and thoughts that are reasonable are based on their current scientific level and moral environment, which determines that these theories are not truly right or wrong, nor are they truly reasonable. This is like the fact that it is difficult for organisms living in the two-dimensional world to understand some theories and laws of organisms living in the three-dimensional world. Two civilizations without communication cannot simply use their own civilization moral standards or behavioral methods to infer the other. A civilized way of behavior.

    Up until now, when talking about aliens, all I think of is what they look like inside

    It has been 30 years, and today it seems that the egg-shaped aircraft is simple and shabby, but how can the sincere feelings between humans and aliens be shabby and shabby. Drew Barrymore was so cute when he was a child~~~ Finally, when he bid farewell to ET, he was full of cows.
