Does anyone remember them?

Feitian...what's going on?

Powerpuff Girls?

bingo! It's the Powerpuff Girls! A series of childhood memories of a large group of people!

Although there were many cartoons when we were young, we also had a lot of energy, and we could like many cartoons at the same time.

When we grow up, maybe we don't like watching cartoons anymore.

However, the creators behind those classic animated images are still insisting on creating.

The founder of "Powerpuff Girls", the Russian director Gendy Tartakovsky , created a series of animations called "Hotel Elf".

Today, the third part of the "Hotel Elf" series has been filmed :

Hotel Elf 3: Mad Vacation .

The "Hotel Elf" series of animations is a witty story revolving around the vampire Dracula , her daughter Mephis , and a bunch of monster friends .

If we say, "Hotel Elf 1" tells the story of a father protecting his daughter ;

"Hotel Elf 2" tells the story of a father interfering with his daughter's education ;

Then "Hotel Elf 3: Crazy Vacation" tells the story of Dad's rediscovery of true love .

Three movies, three different stories, three different wonderful.

Although many people will complain that "Hotel Inn" is not as good as the other , or the original one is the best , but those who really support it will continue to stand up for it.

Today, let's take a deep dive into the reasons why the "Hotel Elf" animation series is so beloved .

1. Each character in the animation has its own distinct characteristics and attribution.

The protagonist Dracula , a single father who has lost a close lover, works hard to run a large hotel in order to raise his growing daughter alone.

Although he is a bit old-fashioned, his love for his daughter is definitely remarkable.

After the entire "Hotel Elf 1" came down, it can be said that it was all silently paying for her daughter.

Because he was afraid that his daughter would be hurt, he made a lie that "human beings are terrible";

When his daughter was angry with him after knowing the truth, he was afraid and depressed, and the image of a pitiful old father was born spontaneously;

When I watched my daughter find her true love, I was both afraid of losing her daughter and happy for her.

A proper "daughter-loving demon", is there any!

And in the second part, it quickly changed from "Daughter-loving Mad Demon" to "Favoring Grandson Mad Demon" !

Sure enough, the phenomenon of "intergenerational parents" is justified...

In the third part, the lonely Dracula finally felt the heartbeat again, although the process was full of hardships.

However, the scene where he "goes to the sword and descends the sea of ​​fire" for this cool white-haired young lady is really handsome!

The power of love... so great.

Dracula's daughter , Mephis , was once a girl who wanted to grow up and crave new things.

After going through a series of processes that adults must go through, such as falling in love, getting married, having children, educating children, and then dealing with the "second spring" of her old father , she has gradually grown from an ignorant "little girl" Transformed into a "big woman" who dares to love and hate.

Although she did not agree with her father's educational concept, when she gradually saw her father's good intentions, she silently accepted it;

Although she couldn't accept that her father fell in love with another woman other than her mother, when she saw her father's happy face, she chose to bless her silently.

There is also an ordinary man who can only play music, Memphis' husband Jonathan;

The always energetic little Dennis;

And a bunch of Dracula's good friends :

Frankenstein who can be disassembled and reorganized from top to bottom , a large green transparent , a man with contact lenses , a mummy , and a weasel that can reproduce indefinitely ;

The characters with distinct images and different personalities burst out with different brilliance, bringing different charms to the film.

In addition, the new character "Big Dog" in "Hotel Elf 3: Crazy Vacation" is also extremely cute!

Second, the image design has a sense of joy, and the more exaggerated the character's expression, the more interesting it is.

whether viewed from a distance,

Still from a close distance, the characters' facial expressions, although exaggerated, are detailed and in place.

3. Fit the details of life everywhere, showing humor and fun.

For example, the "massive demolition scene" between dad and daughter;

The weasel couple who finally got rid of the fetters of a large group of children and liberated their nature;

There is also the "big dance scene" of Dracula and friends...

It can be said to be very happy.

Fourth, the story has a high degree of completion, and the ideas contained in it are in line with the psychology of contemporary people.

In "Hotel Elf 1" , in order to protect his daughter, the father does not hesitate to take extreme measures, but in the end it is counterproductive, which just reflects the behavior of contemporary parents who are overly protective of their children;

In "Hotel Elf 2" , the differences between fathers and daughters about children's education are exactly in line with the problems and contradictions between young people and parents in modern society about children's education;

In addition, each film has a clear theme and is a complete story. From the cause and effect of the story, to the climax of the story, to the happy ending, the plot is naturally connected.

Of course, the reason why the "Hotel Elf" series of animations can continue to be loved by the public is due to the director 's credit.

The Chicago Tribune once commented :

Hotel Elf 3's visuals are magnificent, the story is fast-paced, and the way the elves are shaped is interesting. Having Genndy Tartakovsky continue to direct the series has ensured the comic and formal continuity of the series.

If you want to relax your mind with entertainment, then watching the series of animations of "Hotel Elf" must be one of your first choices!
