Obsession

In 2017, I invited my friends to watch "Transformers 5 The Last Knight" at the cinema. Soon after that, I learned that the home movie about Transformers Bumblebee will also meet with you in the next time. It can be said that the evaluation of "Change 5" on Rotten Tomatoes in the United States is not satisfactory, and the ratings are not good. As for the reason, I think it appeared as early as "Change 3", but I think it is not Influence the next growth of the "Transformers" series. Why is it so sure because China has the same obsession with Transformers as I do. Mention that Transformers have the most say in those born in the 70s and 80s. I remember my aunt told me that she grew up watching Transformers. For us born in the 90s, I was born in 1996. In the beginning, I just got in touch with G1’s Transformers cartoons. In fact, the real contact was the first Transformers movie. At that time, I was a primary school student. At the time, I didn’t have the wealthy money to buy me a toy computer. If the evolutionary King Kong is definitely watching the first movie, I don’t know how many times I have watched it. I don’t have money to buy toys and I don’t know what toys are like (I really don’t know), but I bought Transformers movie stickers and held the stickers in the drawing book. The pictures are painted on the picture (my art is always good), the most expensive sticker is only 1 yuan for less than a popsicle, but the toys are really unaffordable. From "Change 1" to "Change 3" Transformers, whether they are Autobots or Decepticons (that is, Autobots and Decepticons), the images of these three Transformers are basically the same, and they can't be changed much. It feels like a robot. The most classic is that Optimus Prime is the Optimus Prime who restores G1, and the most distinctive feature is that the male protagonists of these three movies are all one person-Sam, a boy about the same age as himself, is not himself or even a lot of people when he was a child His idol can have his own Transformers and a super soldier who protects himself and trusts himself. In the words of an hour, he can say "It's so cool!!"

It can be said that this male protagonist has really mixed three parts in the Transformers circle, with two girlfriends in the three parts, and both of them hand in hand to help the Autobots in times of crisis.

It can be said that most of the first three parts of the Transformers series are performed by humans. At that time, the Autobots and Decepticons were like alien visitors, making humans unable to figure out. At this time, humans and autobots are still brothers in arms

In my first year of college, "Transformers 4 Extinct Rebirth" was released. At that time, I also had enough pocket money to buy a model of Hasbro. A friend also gave me a limited edition cup of "Change 4". The roommate accidentally broke his teeth while brushing. But I didn't blame him. After all, he was a friend in the dormitory, so a cup didn't matter.

At that time, I didn't have the concept of going to the cinema to watch a movie. What does it mean to support genuine? have no idea.

My friend asked for the seeds of "Change 4". I looked at the gun version of the old gun on the Baidu cloud disk with relish. After reading it, I have a lot of experience. In fact, the most intuitive thing is the details of the robots. More human

This reflects Michael Bay's words before the release, "This time Autobots will fight for themselves." In other words, the protagonist of this movie will be Transformers himself.

The beginning of the story is that the CIA agent concealed the government and aliens, namely-confinement (cosmic bounty hunters), to do business, blinded the military to hunt and kill the Autobots, and then the human protagonist-Cade Igg accidentally rescued the Autobot leader Optimus Prime was then forced to reluctantly pull the family and the Autobot survivor to go to the world and find a chance to fight back on the way.

At the climax of the movie, the extinction mentioned in the title finally appeared-the robot dinosaur, which was the helper Optimus Prime couldn't help but find. Otherwise, he wouldn't be able to attack a dinosaur.

In fact, the main thing here is human greed and selfishness. Human beings have mastered the transforming elements in Transformers body and started to make artificial transformers, and vowed to say that the earth no longer needs Transformers, and humans can make them themselves.

However, mankind also paid the price for this, resurrecting Jingpotian and let him take the opportunity to resurrect the younger brothers to destroy the earth. Under the double blow of confinement and Jingpotian, mankind finally knew that they were wrong and worked together to defeat Jingpotian and confinement. .

In the end, Optimus Prime said "Autobots please protect this family" but did not say "Guardians of the earth" as in the previous three parts.

From here, we can see that the people on Earth no longer trust Optimus Prime. Because of the betrayal of humans, his race has paid a painful price. If humans are still playing tricks, Optimus Prime will relentlessly fight back.

I think this film no longer centers on humans, and allows humans to recognize how terrible their greed and selfishness are, but the audience is not cold about this film. Some people fall asleep after watching it in the cinema. The world view Expansion, the details inside are a bit vague and the threshold is too high to be unfriendly to newcomers (because you can’t understand it at all without looking at the previous ones), resulting in a drop in ratings.

I think we should not only look at his special effects, his investment, and what big-name actors we have when we watch movies. We should watch what this movie brings to everyone, what quality, and why we should do it like this. The broader the movie. The more we have to read it a few times before we can understand the mystery.

Transformers and Hasbro in China will certainly not be indifferent. Many people see it as feelings. And I think Transformers is a kind of culture. This kind of culture will continue to extend and develop. It is a boy who grows up. Man sign.

All opinions in this article have nothing to do with others.
