Ice Age finale, a hodgepodge of blunt humor.

In the blink of an eye, Ice Age has already released the fifth volume. The plots of the previous ones are too long to remember clearly, but the characters in it are such as the classic mammoth, saber-toothed tiger, sloth three Musketeers, as well as squirrels, trees Lazy grandma and other characters, their respective images, characters and voices have already left a deep impression in my mind, so that until the final chapter started, I was still struggling whether to press pause first, and then make up for the first four parts. Let's watch the fifth episode again?

However, when the final screen started, I saw the stupid squirrel frantically grabbing the pinecone that could never be grasped, the mammoth father and daughter arguing again, the saber-toothed tiger as the calmest friend complaining about all kinds of gods, and the show When the funny sloths are doing all kinds of damage again, I feel relieved, these old friends meet again! Still the same taste, still the same sour taste! Maybe the images of these animals are relatively simple, or maybe the characters that the screenwriters have made and portrayed are more vivid, or maybe the Ice Age has been with us for many years. No.

Anyway, it's like watching Friends, the plot is not important, anyway, these familiar faces, even if it is a noisy daily life, there will be fans who will pay to watch it.

Of course, I still have to rant about the plot.

Just a few days ago, the old-fashioned animation production of Finding Nemo 2 was made up. At that time, I complained that Disney's imagination was so much backward than that of Finding Nemo 1.
Today, I use Submarine 2 to compare it with the final chapter of Glacier. It must be Submarine 2's victory, so I won't compare it with Disney's.
The plot of the final chapter of Glacier can be said to be a somewhat blunt funny hodgepodge. It can be seen that the screenwriter is trying hard to throw away the burden all the time, but the consequence of too much force is that each burden and each joke have the same effect, not particularly funny, but at best it is a dry laugh .
And many routines can also be imagined. For example, if the sloth fails to propose marriage at the beginning, it can be imagined that he will meet a sincere person; for example, the younger brother of Dinosaur Bird, who seems to be often ridiculed, can imagine that he will bravely stand up to his father and sister at the last moment. Confrontation; for example, the saber-toothed tiger couple, who were scared by the children at the beginning, can imagine that they will win the children's favor later; for example, the main plot is that the mammoth father and daughter quarrel over their daughter's boyfriend, and it is completely conceivable that in the end it must be the daughter's boyfriend who will stand up Save the whole and win the favor of father and daughter.

These routines are reasonable, but if you read too much, you will feel a little boring and lack of new ideas. Although there are also lines of warmth and playfulness, I always feel that trying hard can only be the down-to-earth spirit of Friends, and it is impossible to become the same blockbuster feeling as Forrest Gump.

It's more about seeing American family, American jokes, American friends, and American thinking, but it's just applied to animals.

This is another popcorn movie, how can I put it, I'm afraid I'll forget the plot in a few months.

PS: At the end, it was said that Mars was originally a planet that is very suitable for life like the earth, but then I don’t know what happened to cause it to be full of pits and lifeless places. The plot is about the destruction caused by squirrels. This is the screenwriter’s brain hole Yes, but it's normal. After all, these "unknown events" are full of unknowns and possibilities. The wild imagination might be true! Historical things, cosmic things, who knows?
