Movies moved from being a medium of reality to being a medium of hyper-reality.
This year alone, there are many adventure movies, and there is also a fantasy drifting called Juvenile Pi, which is also drifting on the sea. The plot and effects are far better than this movie.
But because of the nature of the documentary, some episodes are like being in the scene when you watch them. I suddenly became aware of a social situation.
If I'm on that boat, and I don't need to be in any dangerous situation, just in that situation, I can't see a movie and only have a few books, then are those books very precious? If it is written about this adventure and travel.
Then I don't know Avatar, I don't know Young Pi, that's what all expeditions are. Maybe this will be my lifelong dream. At least this spirit of adventure, this kind of plot will give me countless fantasies and change my perception of things.
However, this is not ancient times. Not a remote and desolate place. The prosperous modern prosperity has become a kind of desolation.
Just because I can look at this and look at that. So, I know that this adventure movie is not only not adventurous, but also has no engaging plot.
We are so rich that we don't even need a choice. It's too late to relive the impact this story gave me, too late to digest the essence and expression of this one, and the next one is coming.
When I find that a certain actor's performance is very good, I remember to find another one of him, hoping to get the same enjoyment.
Whether the enjoyment is sensual, emotional, or rational.
That's why our world is so prosperous, yet so easy to be impoverished. Prosperity doesn't leave us enough time to assert ourselves. Our proposition is to keep looking for repeated stimuli of the same kind of stimuli.
I still remember that when I was a child, I didn't have many books on hand, so my textbooks became a treasure trove. Continuous reading and playing, a text can lead to more content.
I'll try to write something like this myself. I hope I can reproduce the kind of sensual or philosophical or emotional inner surging that I have acquired.
Whenever I come across a book, even if it's a few pages of waste paper that I got from Hongtao's father for wrapping pills, I have to look in the text of the fragment for what it should have in other fragments.
That poverty is a kind of prosperity.
Because of poverty, it makes your life towards a kind of narrow uniqueness. People say that ideals and dreams guide people's life.
I do not think so. It is the individual's sufficient cognition and inclination that creates a lifetime orientation.
But in the context of prosperity, our cognition and inclination have lost their uniqueness. People should find that with the growth of knowledge, good and evil, right and wrong have relativity. We divide good and evil into true good and evil, and we divide lies into true lies and white lies. Because the complexity of reality is impacting individual and even collective experience.
Movies, books, or any other medium describe the complexity of the world in formal or parody.
In such a cultural setting, a person or a child is like a sunflower holding up a flower without knowing which of the countless suns in the sky to face.
Such sunflowers are abundant and strong, but they are uncertain, either hesitant or random.
It is impossible for us to return to poverty. The poverty we should understand should not only be history, but also the abundance of those times of poverty.
This kind of thinking is very precious in this complicated world.
