"Dinosaurs" Pixar's young works

Produced by Pixar, it must be a boutique. This cartoon is no exception, but in comparison, the audience is suitable for young children.

I still remember the scene when I first met Pixar, the dancing table lamp, and the short film that was more exciting than the feature film. All this changed my mind. All cartoons are made for children to watch. Since then, I have embarked on a journey of A must-see animation for the road of no return.

Because I just watched a Japanese animation of "You Look Delicious", which also features dinosaurs as the protagonist, and Zhuyu is in front, so I have less feelings for this film. The development of the plot is also in line with the cognition of young children, and the story is always told from the perspective of Thunder Dragon Allo. The development of a single line not only helps the audience understand the plot, but also brings it into the emotional world of Allo. Learn about his growth, maturity and return.

After watching a lot of Hollywood movies, you will find that many movies are wrapped in a coat on top of a Bible story. If you watch too much, you will inevitably have a sense of aesthetic fatigue. Although Pixar is highly respected, this film is still such a situation.

Let’s talk about the general environment of the movie first. There have been many speculations about the extinction of the dinosaurs. One of the more credible views is that the earth was collided with other stars, which led to the extinction of the dinosaurs. At the beginning of the film is the shot of the planet hitting the earth. The ignorant dinosaur just glanced up and continued the evolution of the race.

Dinosaurs, which escaped the genocide disaster, evolved a civilization similar to human society. Although there are only five members of the Thunder Dragon family in the film, the social form has begun to take shape: the family lives in a house, and the Thunder Dragon as a herbivore also has its own arable land, which is collected in autumn and winter to prepare for the winter. The food and housing have been solved, and life is stable and happy.

The carnivore Tyrannosaurus rex that appeared in the film has also changed from its brutal and violent appearance in the past. It has raised a large group of bison, and can actually get along with the brontosaurus Alo, who is also a dinosaur, and also taught Alo some survival methods.

Humans, who appeared later than dinosaurs, were still in the stage of transitioning from walking on all fours to walking upright, and their intelligence had not yet reached the level of contemporary dinosaurs. Between Arlo and the little boy Dian Dian, Dian Dian was more like Arlo's pet. This idea can be said to be one of the highlights of the film: it may be just a coincidence that humans have reached the top of the food chain and become intelligent creatures. If the dinosaurs had not gone extinct, perhaps the humans at this time were really just pets kept by dinosaurs. From this point of view, the relationship between humans and animals is not as extreme as in real life, and the changes in the food chain will also change over time. Treat animals kindly, and make humans the head of animals, not the masters of animals.

Arlo's story is simple and full of childishness. The birth defect caused Arlo to be cowardly and timid, much smaller than his elder brothers and sisters, and became the weakest link in the family. In order to teach Arlo, his father was submerged by the flood when a flood came, leaving his widow and young children. Arlo lives in guilt and self-blame, and his life is not only bleak, but also full of daze. With the belief of avenging his father, he chased the little boy until he lost his way and couldn't go home.

When Arlo was looking for his way home, it was also Arlo's process of maturing and finding himself. He learned to survive from nature, learned to forgive a little and accept him, learned the rules of nature, and learned to stand up to become a stalwart dinosaur like his father... There were bumps and bumps along the way, but in the end he taught him Luo took off his childishness and became a member of society.

The setting of the film is very similar to "Brave", but due to the excessive rendering of the feelings between Arlo and Diandian, this film has become a young classic. Gorgeous technology, delicate pictures, and shooting techniques that combine animation and reality, all of which make up for the thinness of the film's plot. It is not too brilliant, but it is worth watching with treasure.

Even so, I am still full of love for Pixar, and I hope that Pixar can break through itself, break through its previous achievements, and create greater glories, and shoot works as touching as "Toy Story 4".
