Revisiting the uncle's house in his late thirties: To know yourself, start with knowing your side

Adalberto 2022-03-21 09:03:20

I remember when I watched it for the first time, I was very fond of the story of my mother-in-law's use of residual heat to dispatch troops at a time of crisis. With the BGM, it's a bunker, and it's the same feeling to revisit it. It's just that the first brush fashion is at the junction of the student party and the social people. Now that the second brush is married and has children, but it is not considered a family and a business, the overall mood is definitely different.

The human living condition in the highly intelligent information world may be a big proposition in the contemporary society even in 50 or 100 years, and there have been many literary and film works about this big proposition. Revisiting "Summer Wars" this time, what I see is another theme. It is not the common aspect about the replacement or integration of machine intelligence and human beings, but how human and human can get along effectively. and growth, how emotions continue to function and function in human society.

Not to mention the era of complete robotization that may appear in the future, at present, through the Internet, most people, especially the younger generation, have found their self-righteous self-worth. This "self-righteousness" is a neutral word. Personally, I can find my own circle of friends on the Internet. Whether online or offline, I can play together harmoniously and gain and grow from each other. . The longer you are immersed in such a social atmosphere, the more you believe that people will usually forget the foundation that built their growth, that is, your original family and the real environment around you. Kenji is a good cognitive point of view. He told his mother-in-law that he had never experienced the happy atmosphere of a big family, and he was very grateful. Even if he has a talent or honor that others seem to admire and admire, and is valued and recognized in his own circle, in fact he still longs for a primitive and pure concern in his heart. Even from this perspective, you will find that Xia Xi's admiration for the elder Wabisuke from childhood has emerged. Although Wabisuke is a technical bunker, the password from the lock screen, the birthday celebration at home, and the big money from the US military are all to repay the mother-in-law. These It further proves that people really need the approval of the outside world, especially those who are close to them.

I was the second brush, and I pulled my wife to brush it. After watching it, she said that there is no protagonist in this film. Indeed, this film contains a lot of elements and achieves a good balance, so each character and each setting is like a complete story. For example, if you dig deeper into the background of Wabisuke's growth, he may be similar to Jobs in the early days, in the complex cognition of himself and the interpersonal relationships around him... But these stories are inseparable from one origin, which is the root of everyone's growth. Speaking of roots, I think of Hokage again.

This is also the title of my film review: To know yourself, start by knowing yourself. Now many chicken soup soft articles are saying that you must first make yourself awesome and know yourself first, but some of the methodologies provided are still ineffective for ordinary people. What this film tells me is to know the history of the family, to know the history of the country, and to look for patterns and opportunities in various histories. Kenji, Kazuma and a few uncles of the family used the previous Warring States military tactics to molest the Internet intelligence body. Grandpa Mao read the "Zizhitongjian" seventeen times, and the famous Internet sentence "History is always strikingly similar"...

The name setting of the BOSS, LOVE MACHINE, is actually a metaphor for the theme of the film. As a BOSS, he actually does not have LOVE, but only MACHINE. Some are just constantly asking and plundering, which is no different from the giant baby in Spirited Away. The real LOVE is a family working together, a community with a shared future for mankind that will ultimately fight against the world's accounts in difficulties and all sides (when these words were typed, 17,238 cases of the Wuhan epidemic were confirmed). To give another example, the Koshien dream that runs through the whole film, behind the baseball boy, is the family fighting against the world together.

What builds for all mankind comes from every piece of history in the past and every individual in the present; what builds for you comes from your side. First start getting to know you, your parents, grandparents, grandparents, grandparents, and you will definitely find that the family of origin definitely constitutes a large part of your personality.

A few more scattered observations.

Wabisuke's original intention when developing was that as long as the machine was given a desire to know, it would be awesome. This is indeed the case. The newly added baby in the family has been full of curiosity since childhood, but the road to knowledge is not reckless, otherwise it is just a giant baby and a high-level predator.

After the death of the mother-in-law, the family fell into silence, but the elders came out to lead the affairs immediately. Later, the uncle of the family said that this was an opportunity to break the family's yin and yang's decline. Is this phenomenon true in Asian families? Or is the whole world subconsciously still in a matriarchal society?

Has the supervisor watched Star Master's "Kung Fu"? The martial arts design of Kazuma and the BOSS and the Tathagata's palm after the BOSS is huge, all have a little shadow.

The giant rabbit image of BOSS after absorbing Kazuma can be seen in various works, such as "Pandora Hearts" and "BLOOD-C". If you have time, you can take animation works as an example to count various rabbit images and the prototype or meaning behind them.

At the end of the kiss between Xia Xi and Kenji, Xia Xi took the initiative. It seems that in most romantic relationships, the man is always boring.

The most tender picture, the impact is broken, the adults protect the children, and the children come out one by one.

The most spoofed picture, baseball mom turns sadness into appetite.

There are three most handsome pictures, Kazuma resembles Luffy's decisive punch against Tianlongren, Natsuki resembles the final pose of the Tifa Church battle in "Final Fantasy 7: The Advent of the Son", and depicts Kenji's mental arithmetic in the final battle.

Summer Wars quotes

  • Sakae Jinnouchi: [a letter in an envelope reading: To the family - read when the time comes, from passed away granny Sakae Jinnouchi, read in her voice] To my family. // First, take yourselves a deep breath. Crying and carrying on doesn't help anything. Make my funeral arrangement a simple affair, just our close friends, and then go back to your day-to-day lives. I don't have anything to leave you in a way of an inheritance. That said, I'm sure my old acquaintances will keep an eye on Jin'nôchi family. No need to worry, my dears. You've always been hard workers, and I know you'll keep it up. And grant me this. If Wabisuke should ever make his way back home... He's been gone ten years and counting now, so who's to say if that day will ever come... But if he does, I'm sure he'll be hungry. He never took proper care of himself and probably weren't even eating right. So, let him have as many vegetables from the fields as he wants. And the grapes and peaches, too, he always loved those the best. I remember the day we first met. Even now it's clear as a bell, his little ears look just like my husband's. Definitely, his father's son. We walked through the field of morning glories and I told him he would be our child from that day forward. He didn't say a single word, but his hand wrapped all the tighter around my finger. I was so happy to be giving him the family he needed. I like to think he could feel the happiness radiating off of me. Never turn your back on family, even when they hurt you. Never let life get the better of you. And if you remember nothing else, remember to find time to eat together as a family, even when times are rough; especially when times are rough. There's no lack of painful things in this world, but hunger and loneliness must surely be two of the worst. Thanks to you, my precious family, I didn't know a moment of either of those the last ninety years. // Love you all. Good bye.

  • Ri'ichi Jin'nôchi: ...You have to protect others in order to protect yourself.

    Tasuke Jin'nôchi: At the Self-Defence Force motto?

    Ri'ichi Jin'nôchi: Not exactly. I just lifted it from Seven Samurai.
