Just finished watching the premiere of the mainland, because it was too late, I slept for a while. In addition to lamenting the low quality of the Chinese, it is just as I expected to join in the fun.
There were eight people and four couples watching with me, not to mention attacking the shell, they didn't even have at least SF common sense. After reading it, it is meaningless to say a word, it is better to watch King Kong. That's right, for those whose purpose is to entertain the masses, whether it's attacking the shell, or the dedication of suspect x, it's the same way to pass the time, and movies are also fast food culture. Any work has fun, the key is to know where the fun is. Obviously, some people chose the wrong movie under the wrong understanding of themselves.
So what exactly is this film? First of all, we must distinguish the differences in the media. There are three episodes of Attack in the Shell that I admit, the theatrical version of 95 and Innocence, and the two episodes of TV. In fact, the core of each description is different, and the interpretation of Kusanagi Motoko is also different. It is understandable that the movie has created such a prime. If you have to compare it with the original, it is not the same as the judging standard. Because the original Kusanagi Motoko is open, unlike Yukawa is established. I think the main factor in attacking everyone is the lack of understanding of the medium.
The restoration of scenes, weapons, and prosthetics is still in the past, and it is not a big problem. But the most important thing is the way of storytelling. The theme is to explore the human memory and the body, which is the first. But there are no events throughout the article that reflect this. The main line is memory coverage, tracking the truth, and killing the boss. I'm not against the moral discourse of human experimentation, but aren't you going to play with memory and the body? Wouldn't a sex doll fit right in? As a result, I kept saying from the beginning that I was not myself after the memory was overwritten. The final conclusion was that the memory was useless, and it still depends on my behavior. You will find that the body is gone, and the discussion of the distinction between machines and humans is gone. The argument for this topic is also too simple. Not only can't touch the original kernel, but also can't explain the common problems of general sf.
For example, the division between humans and artificial intelligence lies in emotional changes and growth. TV is done with crab carts. For example, the use of the body, the synchronization rate, and the dominance are all related events. How the Kusanagi Motoko in the movie came to the conclusion that behavior determines human nature, there is no performance at all. How did your sense of justice come from, and how did you understand being betrayed? It's inexplicable how bad the growth of the characters is. You at least explain the cause and effect.
In short, this movie may feel that action movies can meet the needs of public entertainment. If the theme is too deep, the audience will not buy it. Just make a lively picture and use SF as the background of the action movie. Just a few words. Sometimes I just think, now the movies are getting worse and worse and less and less mindless, is it really good? Lowering the threshold allows more people to experience entertainment, but the result is a cycle. The reduction of the audience level has lowered the level of the film, and the threshold of the film has been lowered, further losing the possibility of raising the level of the audience. Such a vicious circle. Finding a fixed pattern also reduces the creativity of talented creators. Today's visual media is nothing but a false exuberance of technological progress. When the bubble finally bursts, I hope there will still be a real culture there.
