Zixia tells Qingxia that the supreme treasure will wear golden armor and holy armor, and walk on seven-colored clouds to marry herself. Qingxia scolded her for being insane. Zixia retorted: "This is not a neuropathy, this is an ideal."
Speed also has its own ideal, which is racing. His teacher said since he was a kid that he "seems to be interested in only one thing, everything he talks about, everything he can think of... it's just racing." And he also said, "For my family, racing isn't just about racing. It's a sporting event, it's what we are all about, and it's more than anything...like...a faith." Eventually, after the "accidental death" of his idol, his own brother, he also took to racing. Road, and eventually won the "International Automobile Award".
The director of the film is the Andy Wachowski brothers, the two creators of The Matrix. After watching the movie "Speed Racer", many people feel that the whole movie is like a video game. Because all the locations in this movie designed by the Andy Wachowski brothers are the future full of fairy tales and comics - I think the Andy Wachowski brothers must be very impressed with themselves in The Matrix "The filthy and devastated future world designed in" was tired of it, so he built such a future world full of splendor and splendor.
Of course, compared to the future movies I am familiar with, the future setting of this movie makes us feel unreal and too far away. But it's a movie about dreams, and it's a set like this that fits that temperament. Especially in the last International Grand Prix, when speed finally defeated the evil opponent and sprinted to the point, the director even used the racing car to draw an oil painting on the screen, as if the director was not making a commercial movie, but It's just a dream of painting on canvas.
So, although many people don't like this future world, will people change their minds about future movies in ten years? For science fiction movies, it seems that they can never be made for contemporary people.
Of course, the director's ideal is not just to shoot a movie related to racing, but to show his ideal against capital manipulation. What is the essence of capital society? That is, capital is everywhere and manipulated everywhere. It rigged the media, it rigged politics, it rigged sports, it rigged movies, and even in Speed Racer, it rigged racing.
That's why the director arranged for an idealistic hero like Speed to fight against the entire capital group. I read some comments, and some netizens said that this is a movie that knows the ending from the beginning. And I don't think so. When everyone watches a movie, he will watch it with his own social experience, and he will integrate his own thoughts into the movie. Maybe that netizen is really a person who is very suitable for the temperament of this movie, but I am not.
So when I saw speed on a track where the capital had almost controlled all the racers, I was reminded of Lippmann Don Quixote. Seeing that he picked up the spear in his hand, urged the horse under his seat, and rushed to the big windmill representing the power of capital without fear. In Cervantes's pen, Don Quixote's fate is tragic, and of course all these confrontations fail. Some people say that Don Quixote is a mockery of Cervantes for chivalry literature, but is it not a pessimistic view of the idealized state?
With such a plot, I can't help but worry about the final outcome of speed, I don't know if the director will arrange the failure of speed - if so, then the director can just tear the beautiful things to shreds for the audience to see and let the audience go Hate the omnipotent infiltration of capital forces into our lives; however, the director can also completely go to speed to win, defeat the opponent, and declare the final victory of idealism over the cruel reality. He can also infect many people and bring them the pursuit of ideals. power.
It seems that Hollywood doesn't believe in tears. They prefer happy endings most of the time. In the end, the director chose the latter among the unsuspenseful predictions of many audiences. But unlike Zixia, we may have guessed the ending, but have we carefully understood the process? Speed's final success, faced with how much temptation and pressure, the temptation of money and power from capital forces also comes from their denial of their future racing career or even the bankruptcy of their family and their own life danger, but it is precisely this kind of Pressure, speed finally won. It seems that we can't think of the final outcome so easily. After all, a movie is a movie. How many of us can do this?
Finally, let's get in touch with the Olympics. For speed, winning or losing is no longer important, but because racing is a belief of its own. What he cares about is not to win the trophies that make countless racing drivers dream about through the competition, but to change the world. Therefore, it is suggested that when the Olympic Games open in the future, the Olympic Organizing Committee will use this film as a must-see teaching material for athletes.
