Event: Monsters vs. Aliens DreamWorks Ahead of the Premiere

1. If I hadn't been looking forward to the film, I wouldn't have come with sleepy eyes Catch the morning show this Saturday. I feel a little regret that DreamWorks did not arrange an IMAX 3D version today, but just a normal 3D version.

2. From a technical point of view, the 3D production levels of several major companies are basically not far behind, and even Coraline some time ago was quite amazing.

3. However, Pixar's most troublesome thing for other competitors is not only the production of the lifelike hairs in "Monsters, Inc.", the excellent script and the continuous innovation are its strongest magic weapon.

4. Of course, you can't say that "Monsters vs. Aliens" is just a platter of "Monster Company", "The Martian Invasion", "Shenzhen", etc. At least they, as a big Hollywood company, can "deign" The protagonists who were screaming in the B-level monster film were invited, and they were not afraid to apply the dilapidated section of "Saving the World", using the latest stereoscopic imaging technology to brew this old bottle of new wine.

5. DreamWorks is always very strong in casting, especially in male roles, such as Jack Black from last year's "Kung Fu Panda", and Seth Rogen, who is not the protagonist but is very eye-catching this time.

6. "Monsters vs. Aliens" is an excellent movie with a well-made animation, but compared to their last year's "Kung Fu Panda" and most of Pixar's films, I still feel that it is still poor.

Monsters vs. Aliens quotes

  • Derek Dietl: Wow, you really are big.

    Susan Murphy: Yeah, but I'm still me. I'm still the same girl you fell in love with.

    Derek Dietl: Except you did just destroy the Golden Gate Bridge.

    Susan Murphy: Well, but that was the only way I was gonna stop that giant robot. Did you ever think I could do something like that?

    Derek Dietl: No, I didn't. I can honestly say that it never, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever, ever occurred to me.

  • Susan Murphy: Look, I-I know this is a little weird. Okay - it's a lot weird. But we'll figure it out. I know that together, we can find a way to get me back to normal.

    Derek Dietl: Susan, try and look at this from my perspective. I have an audience that depends on me for news, weather, sports and heart-warming fluff pieces. So you expect me to put all that on hold while you try to undo this thing that happened to you, that I had absolutely nothing to do with?

    Susan Murphy: Yes. That's exactly what I expect. What-what about the life that we always talked about? Don't you still want that?

    Derek Dietl: Of course. I just... don't see how I can have that with you.

    Susan Murphy: [on the verge of tears] Derek, please. Don't do this.

    Derek Dietl: Oh, y-you have to faced facts, Susan. And don't crush me for saying this, but I'm not looking to get married and spend the rest of my life in someone else's shadow. And you're casting a pretty big shadow. I'm sorry. It's over. Good luck, Susan.
