Restoring dreams

Dear children, if the impression of the country of Oz still remains in the cartoon of the Wizard of Oz that I watched when I was young, it is too far behind. At that time, both thinking (itself) and reality (technology) were in the plane age, and today's digital technology has the ability to create a complete and real Oz. Of course, only major Hollywood studios have this ability. Among them, Disney, who is best at building dreams for children, is undoubtedly the best candidate.
If there can be a director who has made several good commercial blockbusters to guide, it would be perfect. Sam Remy is not the best, but for the sake of shooting the Spider-Man series, he is still looking for the right person. NS. What's more, there are all-star lineups like James Frank, Rachel Weisz, Milla Kunis and Michelle Williams.
In terms of plot, the film maintains the usual lacklustre of big studios. An inexperienced magician Oscar came to Oz by mistake and was mistaken for a great wizard. Oscar originally thought this was a good opportunity to become famous and make a fortune, but in his dealings with the three witches, he became involved in the disputes between the residents of Oz. He must help the good witches to drive away the bad witches to be safe. With his own tricks, he really did it. From then on, he is no longer the infamous magician Oscar, but the Oz the Great. The end of this movie is the story of the Wizard of Oz as we know it.
The big-name films do not pursue the profound meaning at all. They only provide two hours of entertainment, so that people can feel that this is a happy time during the time they enter the theater. It may be a bit superficial, but the commercial film itself is a kind of audiovisual enjoyment. When the audience enters the theater, what they need is not thinking, but entertainment. The responsibility of a film worker is the same as the magician Oscar in the movie. It is necessary to conjure a magic that cannot find a flaw, and then win full applause. But if he wants to restore a disabled girl to normal, it will be difficult for him. . This episode should also have joined the personal emotions of director Sam Remy. The cult film director who is famous for his ghost play, but today made such a popcorn movie. He must be very dissatisfied with it. A curvilinear way to express grievances.
However, the movie is definitely worth returning to the ticket price. Not to mention Sam Remy's wild imagination, how much color has been added to the illusion of Oz. The kaleidoscope-like environment shows the movie's motto: technology is only one of the smallest obstacles to the movie. Imagination Strength is the most important (Kubrick). In fact, when the film was shot, the actors were just doing "no physical performances" in front of a bare green screen. When it turned into a screen, all the audience noticed were the magnificent kingdoms co-produced by the director and stuntmen. To the green hills and green valleys, the Golden Road, the tornado hurricane, the ancient emerald castle, the ancient white porcelain town, the small dwarf attendants, the winged flying monkeys, and the porcelain loli, the ubiquitous beauty almost makes people forget the monotony of the plot of the movie. The imagination of Hollywood is amazing. Moreover, the 3D effect raises the impact of these spectacles to another level. Its role is not only to make people feel the specialness of the picture, but also to include special aesthetic effects. It transforms the aesthetics of the plane into the aesthetics of the body. Observing movies from multiple angles is not to show off technology and fool the audience as some people say, but to give people the right to choose, which is to respect the audience.
Anyone can criticize the superficiality of this film, because it is true from the content. The purpose of this film is to create dreams. The film has been hailed as light and shadow magic since its birth, and it is a kind of juggling. What's wrong?
