As the Queen’s stubborn fan, of course, I have to go to the premiere zero field. The effect of the Imperial IMAX theater is absolutely worth his price, so the first time I was basically in a state of being shocked and hypnotized by visual and musical effects. At that time, I thought this story was a bit strange, but it was by no means strange that many people on the Internet said that the "story is very watery", but that something was missed in the story, and this "thing" was related to their mother.
When I watched it the second time, I could distract a little from the visual effects and notice the direction of the story, so I wrote a little bit of thoughts first.
For me, the biggest surprise in the 13-year "Frozen" story is not that the prince becomes a villain-please, if it weren't for a Disney princess movie, Hans would have guessed this in 10 minutes. I'm afraid I'm a villain! The so-called reversal does not really exist.
The biggest surprise is the anti-patriarchal thinking expressed in it: the biggest "villain" is actually Elsa's father, who told Elsa to "hide" and not show his true self. In the end, Anna's love and unconditional trust in her prompted her to accept herself and stop hiding, and Anna also won back her sister, and the two lived happily in Arendale with their children. (Chris what? What tofu?)
This was originally a complete and finished story. As we all know, Disney’s princess series has never had a precedent for a sequel (the DVD series after the movie is not a real sequel), but Disney itself did not expect Ice 1 to achieve bursting success on a global scale, so it is iced under the demand of capital. 2 was officially put on the agenda. The problem is that Bing 1 is a complete story, and there is no condition to prepare for the sequel. So how to write the sequel is equivalent to the queen building the palace on the ground. Basically, it has to be "made out of nothing".
In fact, I was relatively resistant to the clue of "searching for the origin of magic" at first. Bing 1 said it clearly: "Naturally," and then Elsa also accepts her own magic. I think it's completely enough. If you look for it again The origin is superfluous. Especially when the trailer first came out, the beauty was beautiful, but I was actually very worried that Ice 2 would become a popular dark adventure story these years, but after watching the movie, I realized that I was still too small.
The role of mother has been increased in Ice 2, but unfortunately it is not well developed/said (the story of the entire parental line is not very clear). The role of the father is a good indication of the identity of the patriarchy at the beginning: the narrator of history. The mother is obviously also the experiencer of the story, but is basically aphasia in telling the history of the incident, and can only convey some information through children's songs. (The role of nursery rhymes in fairy tales is very important, basically implying the truth of the whole story) And this song runs through the movie, showing that mother is the most fundamental source of Elsa and Anna.
The bold setting in Ice 2 is to remove the villain in the traditional sense. This narrative is a test of the screenwriter's ability, in other words, it is a very disadvantageous way. Of course, everyone has different opinions on the completion of the story, but this choice itself illustrates the ambition of the team.
When ice 1’s let it go came out, it was called an out-of-the-box song. In recent years, the most speculation about ice 2 on the Internet is whether it will arrange a girlfriend for the queen, but Disney has always been synonymous with conservativeness. Forget it, his top priority is the world market; secondly, if it is really limited to sexual orientation, the queen will not be the goddess of everyone, because one of Elsa's greatest charms is this vague and ambiguous "sexualless" sex. .
When Bing 1 has ended the discussion of "accepting oneself", how can Bing 2 expand? The safest way is to generate a "crisis"/villain from the outside world to promote the story under the existing worldview system. At this time, set a main tone such as "growth" and "parting", and the film will be stable. It's hard to tell a bad one. For example, XX1234, which is loved by the majority of Pixar fans, is a very safe choice. But Bing 2’s boldness and ambition is reflected in completely breaking Bing 1’s world view system. Bing 1 is actually a more traditional fairy tale, but it has increased the female awakening and the female alliance. But Bing 1’s alliance is actually far-fetched. Although I am a fan of the queen, I have to say that every step of the queen is basically driven by her sister: she was forced to expose the magic by her sister and went to Beishan to be a lonely one. As a result, the female architect was forced out of control by her sister's magic and frozen the whole country. She was controlled by Hans and was almost killed. Then she was rescued by her sister who rushed to sacrifice herself in time. Look, everyone, it's all passive sentences! ! ! You can't be the queen! (Who wrote it crossed out!) So Bing 1 can only say that there is a female awakening, and there is no female alliance.
But by the time of Ice 2, the creators completely overturned the fairy tale setting: the queen has now "accepted herself", and every day his wife and children have a variety of comforts (what), but the creators tirelessly issue soul torture every day: but who are you? ? ! What is your position in this world? ! This torture and noisy Elsa can't sleep every night and can only sing. (The Queen is so miserable! Distressed the Queen!) Originally singing was to resist torture, all kinds of "I don't listen, I didn't hold back nonsense"! As a result, singing and singing accidentally exposed the true desire in his heart, and responded to the call from afar, causing disaster for the kingdom again.
But this time Elsa did not run away, but took the initiative to take the responsibility of tracing the source of the call. Of course, Anna Little Angel wants to bias her sister! A group of people started a new adventure with a load and a horse (deer). But the audience actually quickly discovered that the "adventure" here is very watery, because there is basically no risk. My Elsa Queen's martial arts is like a step on the ice. Fighting monsters is like playing. At this time, I think , It should not be the way to upgrade the monsters as previously thought, fortunately, okay.
Then I found the wrecked ship of my parents, forcing Elsa to decide to go to the Hulitang Island alone in the north (sorry, I didn't remember the name...). Since then, the two sisters have officially separated and started their respective journeys.
One of the highlight moments of the whole play is Elsa's scenes of crossing the sea and training horses in the sea. See how the queen's brave and fearless posture is the first one to feel angry! ! ! Seeing that she jumped on horseback and galloped towards the other side, tears couldn't hold back, okay! ! ! At this time, Elsa is truly free, instead of being the queen of the human world sitting on her back and carefully suppressing herself! You go, girl! ! ! (Breaking sound)
If the queen sings let it go in the first part is a temporary feeling of liberation and joy, then when she sings show yourself in the ice palace, she gains true self-identification, let it go is her acceptance Because of her magic/defects, show yourself is the moment she finds her true self, and the duet with her mother across time and space is the moment when she truly "goes home".
At the same time, Anna can only grow in a real sense when she is separated from Elsa. In the cave, her lyrics said very clearly: "I have been following you. You are my only star. When I am not fighting for you, how can I cheer myself up." (I can’t see it...), so Only when Elsa really leaves (dead), will it be possible for Anna to do it entirely for her own independent desire and not (completely) for her sister.
At the end, Elsa consecrated the gods-through the mother’s guidance, he found the root of his strength and returned to nature, and it was the nature of a matrilineal society, and then passed the (human) kingdom to Anna, not because she is the successor in line, but because of her In a series of events, the queen's traits that can be alone are manifested. The goddess passes the throne to the queen, and the story is completely untied from the patriarchal social system. This is the boldest aspect of the Ice 2 setting: the complete break between the queen and the patriarchal society. (Of course, except for her sister asking her to go home for dinner on Friday)
but.
The ambition of the setting is there, and the degree of completion is slightly lacking. In fact, there are problems in the rhythm and development of the Bing 1 story. Unfortunately, these problems still exist in Bing 2. The most important thing is the setting of the dam, which is simple and rude. No wonder many people are telling a 50 cents environmental protection story in Tucao Shuo Bing 2, which has dilute the theme of women seeking and returning to themselves. In fact, I think Bing 2 is not talking about environmental protection, but about the harmonious relationship between man and nature. A branch of contemporary feminism is the relationship between women and nature (ecofeminism). The patriarchal system represents development and The destruction of nature and women, matrilineal society represents harmony and unity with nature. It’s been too long to remember, but there seems to be the same expression in "Princess Mononoke."
In addition, thanks to Douyou Xiangrui Yutu's "The Prototype of the Important Plot: The Northerner and the Dam", for learning! Those who say that the film is a mapping of the Three Gorges Dam can shut up. Real dry goods, recommended reading!
Let’s talk about the songs. Many people say that there is no brainwashing of the music in this one. Please, Disney is the big man who wrote the golden songs of "Pocahontas", "The Lion King" and "let it go". If the purpose is really to make a hit song, I think it is really not that difficult. The main creator should be very clever and didn't plan to produce another phenomenon-level explosion like let it go. Instead, he returned the music to the functionality of the musical—showing the heart of the character and promoting the development of the plot. Besides, there is All is found, Show yourself, Into the unknown, The next right thing, which one is not full of stamina? ! (Ahhhhh~)
As for the end of the reunion and childishness, no one died, not to mention that even Arundel was not flooded. I beg you to leave a way for the children to survive! Nowadays, everyone knows that the audience is not just children. You have to worry about the grown-up children and children's parents. They can't wait to become adults from the inside out. Let the children see what happened to the happy ending! Anyway, within two years, they will experience the cruelty of the adult world by themselves. Besides, if we adults don’t talk about it, don’t we really want to have a happy ending? ! (People with antisocial personality, I didn't say it) What happened to letting Disney have a dream for us? ! (A distressed aunt screams foaming at her mouth)
Needless to say, the technology and clothing of the film, people who have scored one star dare not complain about it!
What else is there to say, oh yes, let's talk about the hero.
In addition to being funny, Olaf has been talking about all kinds of confusion about "growing up" in this movie. The children and the audience should be more sympathetic. In addition, I am also responsible for complaining. In addition to complaining about the story, there are various hints at the end that the adventure is enough, right? Let's make money and earn enough, right? Ice 3 should not be filmed? ! !
Oh, by the way, there is also the male Sanlu male (the second male is the reindeer Sven, everyone should have no opinion), the role of the deer male in Ice 1 is necessary, but the male deer in Ice 2 should find nothing as long as the audience is not blind. It's unnecessary, but I can't let this character disappear out of thin air. I can only give him a solo in the play and let him disappear. At the end, it seems to have returned casually. Oh my god, I just laughed to death.
In short, I think "Frozen 2" is a very good sequel. Although there are some flaws in the story, but the flaws are not concealed, and I am satisfied as a stubborn fan! ! ! I should go three and four brushes again! !
(Mom, my ability to write essays and concocts has finally come in handy!!)
