Strange and weird in the same clan, but also calm

Although the plot is exaggerated to the point where one can question his logical thinking, the film talks about the style of Journey to the West along the way: strange and strange, the same ancestry, but also calm.
Starting from the dolphins who sang "bye bye you, thank you for your fish food" at the beginning, in the bizarre world, familiar things are defamiliarized, strange things are familiar, spring and autumn brushwork, Pi Li Yangqiu. The afterthought of the film will be very similar to that of Journey to the West: it’s okay to smile, and it’s happier to think deeply.
By the way: I really like the depression robot Marvin in the film.
Another: I am more interested in the translation of the little fish "Babel Fish" in the film. I checked the information: the word Babel comes from "Tower of Babel" (the famous "Tower of Babylon" (Tower of Babylon). In the Bible story , This "Tower of Babylon" refers to the tower of the sky built by ancient humans. This tower was not built because God believed that the construction of the "Tower of Babel" was an act of challenging and questioning his authority and could not be tolerated, so it disturbed the unity of human society Language makes it impossible for people to understand each other and they have to be scattered all over the world.
"The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy", the "most ugly little yellow croaker" that can act as a "universal translator" is named after "Babel", which is obviously against God.
"Babel "Fish" is just a small manifestation of the hippie spirit of the film. The film mocks reality, classics, and common sense almost everywhere, and this mockery is logical and inexorable. The
so-called "fun philosophy" is a model.
