When I walked into the cinema, my expectation was that I would watch it with the children. I also assumed that there would be more children and the movie would be "lively". However, what was unexpected was that, except for some scenes that naturally made the children laugh, the children watched the movie quietly with their parents most of the time. I want to strongly applaud this.
From an educational perspective:
1. Lanmei rescued the Smurfs by sacrificing herself. When the latter friends were collectively "paying homage" to Lanmei, the Smurf magic brought her back to life again. A mother sitting next to me said to her son, "Look at my son, Lanmei is alive again!" She felt even more excited than her son. Through the case of Lanmei's sacrifice and resurrection, it may be possible to plant a seed of kindness in the hearts of children. This may serve as an educational effect, learning to be kind.
2. The whole team activities of the Smurfs group of four may also tell the children to help their teammates, never give up, overcome difficulties together, and play together when they have fun. In this, the seeds of teamwork may be planted for the children.
Some of the content written below comes from the views shared by the little friend Ayi. I think there are some overlaps in the angles of her watching the movie. Are you happy, you ask? It is a must. It is very rare to meet a small partner who has a thought resonance at the same time:
1. Lanmei can be regarded as an outsider. In the process of trying to become a real Smurf, Lanmei has indeed paid a lot, and has been looking for her own identity. No one sees people of different races yet. It was not really accepted and recognized until the end. This process reminded me of how the first generation of Chinese had to integrate into local life. If you want to integrate into it, you will find that many Chinese are religious. Because the locals will gather in the church for worship and activities almost on weekends. Many Chinese believers are similar to Lanmei's growth process.
2. Heroic formation in Greek mythology. Yesterday, classmate Xiao Yi told me some "routines" about Greek mythology, that is, the hero is first misunderstood, then the hero saves the public, and finally the public returns to the road of respecting the hero. Thinking about American cartoons from this perspective, you can actually find this kind of thinking: Lanmei has many charming qualities. From the beginning of the cartoon, a few Smurf children loved Lanmei. This may be understood as Blue Girl has some potential as a "hero". Later, when the four Smurfs entered the Smurfs' homeland of their daughter's country, the female elf named Shanshan released and expanded her doubts about Lanmei. At this time, Lanmei was misunderstood by everyone. However, at this time, Gegewu came and took everyone away, and Lanmei didn't have a chance to explain anything. Lanmei cried sadly (At this time, I found that the mother and son audience next to me were also very angry that Lanmei was so cowardly and did not help the Smurfs family. I felt that they were very engaged. In fact, I didn’t have much distraction except for snacks during the whole process), Blame yourself and so on. Later, with the encouragement of the little ladybug recording function, I re-acquainted myself, until I sacrificed myself to rescue the entire captured Smurfs, and the Smurfs family rescued Smurfs. I can almost interpret such an animation plot setting idea in this way. .
3. The spread and influence of American values. When discussing film dissemination with Xiao Yi, I can clearly perceive the influence of American culture on myself. Since graduating from high school, the choice of books to read in the later period has hardly involved Chinese traditional culture, or has access to books with the essence of Chinese culture. On the other hand, I have persisted in reading books about Western culture one after another, and almost all of them are mainly in English. For the essence of traditional culture, you should read more from the Taiwan publishing house. The specific reason: the indescribable reason, you know! But you see that we are watching American blockbusters now, and the dissemination and influence of the values in them have penetrated deep into our ordinary people. However, there are still many situations. It seems that there is no progress in the ideological propaganda of some of our propaganda agencies, that is, the propaganda means are relatively simple, and the propaganda effect depends on monopoly. What I personally want to express here is that for the export of our Chinese culture, perhaps starting from the real educational details, cultivating students, including us adults, to seriously read traditional cultural content.
This movie can really be watched with children, which is very suitable.
