If other people’s evaluation will play a vital role for you, this role includes but not limited to whether you can rent a good house, whether you can take a scheduled flight, and whether you can rent one. Driving a car, then what would you do?
Of course it is trying to please others, smile to everyone, and make others like you, whether it is a stranger or a colleague or friend. Because their evaluation determines everything about you, you can't offend anyone.
The heroine is in such a world where "evaluation is greater than the sky". At the beginning, she discovered that this is simply a paradise in her dreams. Everyone smiles at her, and everyone will like the photos you send, and she will also give back The five-star praise and the ever-changing smile are nothing short of tranquility and stability in the world.
But she quickly discovered the problem with this scoring system: communicating with people that everyone dislikes will cause her own evaluation to drop sharply; she wants to live in a high-end community but was told that
she must have a higher evaluation to get a discount... It turns out that these scores represent the things that have existed in human society since ancient times:
she tried to please others but was told that only higher-ranking people would rate her highly in order to quickly increase the evaluation score. In other words, she needs to contact and fawn The upper class that you can't reach.
It happened that at this time, her upper-class girlfriends who had always humiliated her invited her to be a bridesmaid. At the wedding, she could get "likes" from the coveted upper-class people, so she embarked on the "nosedive" road.
The most commendable of the Black Mirror series is to use science fiction stories to tell the common problems of human society no matter what era. Science fiction and technology are just props to amplify these problems and make them appear on a reasonable stage. .
The "Like" function of Moments and Weibo, the thumbs of social tools such as Facebook and Instagram, etc. These are almost the same as the rating function of the future world in the film. If a person gets a lot of likes, our The first reaction is that this person is very good, has a wide social network, and has a rich life, and those celebrities and wealthy Internet celebrities are often tens of thousands of likes.
So what happens if you zoom in on all of these?
——The evaluation of others on you is directly equal to your credit qualifications plus your social status.
This is a bit scary, isn't it?
Your value and life are determined by others. You can't say a dirty word, because you are afraid that others will give you bad reviews. It will
always be love and peace. No matter what your heart is, you must smile, even if it is hard to squeeze. How much anger is hidden in this false harmony?
And this is a bit unreasonable, isn't it?
Why can a stranger evaluate me just by one side? Do they understand me? Do they know who I am? Do they understand my situation?
As the heroine's brother said, this is a fake smile system.
If anger is not free, then harmony has no meaning.
In the film, the heroine is in jail and another "criminal" in the scolding of
"fuck", but it is the greatest harmony and freedom
2.1408 Pirates of Dreams
shrinking version of Pirates of Dreams, and low distribution Version 1408 is a combination of fierceness, and there is nothing to say about it.
3. Shut up and dance. One of the
relatively weak episodes of this quarter. It tells the story of a hacker who has mastered the privacy of several people and then played them to death. I won’t say much in this episode, it can even be said. It is the weakest episode in the three seasons of Black Mirror.
4. San junipero is like a
person in heaven dying, with an immortal soul, going to heaven or going to hell. This is one of the core issues of almost all religions since ancient times. It has manifested in almost the same form in different religions, whether it is the paradise in Christianity and Islam, or the Western Paradise in Buddhism, or even Taoism. The ascension of the way is a manifestation of this theory of immortality of the soul.
The fear of death, the instinct to survive, the reluctance to give up on relatives and friends, and the escape from the huge void make most people still want to believe this statement even though the technology is so advanced today, and these are also the part of this episode. Think deeply.
——Go to San Junipero, where technology has become a god, dominating your death and the paradise after death.
The rhythm of the first third is not slow, and even a little drowsy, but still laid a few foreshadowings: what will happen after 12 o'clock in the morning that has been mentioned many times? Why is it that the world is only one week later, but Yorkie and Kelly are not old? In Quagmire, why did the passerby man pestering Kelly make Yorkie go to Kelly in the 80s and 90s? And what does it mean that passerby men accidentally talk about being surrounded by dead people?
These mysteries attracted me to endure the seemingly old-fashioned and slow plot to continue watching. Finally, after kelly said "Let me go over there and see you", everything suddenly became clear. It turns out that San Junipero is a similar network in the future. The huge system of the game not only allows the souls of dead people to live forever in the system, but also allows the souls of "living" people to enter the world created by this system to "experience". And Yorkie and Kelly are the two living experiencers of this system. They love each other in the system and enjoy the most beautiful scenery and time with their faces that will never age. In reality, Yorkie is just a vegetative living on a ventilator. , And Kelly also suffered from cancer and will die soon.
In this system, the living people are tourists, and only the dead can survive forever. With the help of Kelly, Yorkie took the lead in euthanasia and went to this world, enjoying unprecedented freedom and happiness, so she asked Kelly to also euthanize, and San junipero, the home of her own longevity and eternity, but Kelly obsessed that her dead husband and daughter had never entered this world, so she should not step into it either. At first, she believed that the fetters of the real world are far greater than the virtual happiness, reality and illusion, the past and the future, old feelings and new hopes, feelings and love, this conflict is the confusion brought to us by technology, but also The ultimate meaning of the series of "Black Mirror".
In the end, kelly chose a god who obeyed technology, the soul entered San Junipero, lived in heaven with her beloved Yorkie, and the body was buried with her husband and daughter to protect the fetters of the past.
At the end, the system room where countless souls are stored and the sweet heavenly life of the two flash alternately. The coldness of technology and the warmth of the soul are combined together. The shining indicator lights in reality bring a dreamy and perfect life in the illusion, which not only makes people Think about what life is, and what the soul is. When technology becomes a god, will you choose to go to the void, or a fantasy created by technology, and who can guarantee that eternal life is not eternal death?
In any case, come to San Junipero, the eternal land, like a paradise.
5.man against fire
One of the ideas of the Nazi Resurrection film must come from the mental problems of the Vietnam War veterans. Shooting the same kind will bring a great sense of guilt and guilt. So, what if you are killing a monster? Will this kind of psychological problem disappear completely?
The answer is yes, human beings will never be merciless to different species. The so-called non-self race, there is no more justice than destroying monsters that threaten one's own safety and defending the same race.
This reminds me of Nazi genocide, poor genes and blood, and disease. How familiar is it? The Nazis back then felt that they were doing the right thing. At that time, there was no Mass system, and some were just brainwashing propaganda, but they had the same effect.
Just as the cockroach girl answered the soldier's sentence: The soldier saw the monster with the mass system, but the villagers saw the original face, and they were brainwashed. However, even so, the villagers still hope that the "cockroaches" will die, and they will not even eat the food they have touched.
This is the scariest part.
In the end, the soldier couldn't escape the condemnation of his conscience and chose to surrender to the Mass system. He stood in front of the desolate cabin with tears in his eyes, but saw the tidy room and Mass's fictional wife, full of irony.
6.hated in the nation The
sixth episode of the Bee of Damocles is really a good story, and the rhythm is also very good.
Technology has always been the sword of Damocles hanging over the heads of human beings. Whether it is used to make gunpowder for gunpowder or nuclear fission for making atomic bombs, it was not born for the purpose of killing people. It could have been used. In the cause of benefiting all mankind, the later use methods also proved that it is indeed possible, but they have claimed the lives of thousands of people. It can even be asserted that technology is a sword of Damocles that has fallen and may continue to fall in the future.
There was once an assertion that the day when the bees disappeared was the day when the creatures on the earth died out, because the bees spread most of the pollen on the earth, and without the process of pollen transmission, most plants will become extinct, and rely on the ingestion of plants. Animals will die again and again, and humans will not be spared in the end. The sixth episode sets the background in the future when bees are on the verge of extinction. Humans have created mechanical bees to replace real bees to maintain the ecology of the earth. This background is really very interesting. It also makes it reasonable for the supervisor to refuse to close the mechanical bee system. Without bees, the ecology would really collapse.
Humans rely on this technology so much, and it is so perfect: it can not only pollinate, but also build a hive, and then reproduce itself. It perfectly simulates everything of the native bee, and it is fully automated, almost without human management, but This crisis is hidden in the almost perfect self-management of the robotic bee-the technical director said to the police twice that it is almost impossible, that is to say, the possibility of all cracking is that the two possible probabilities are mutually related, from the probability. It's almost trivial, but the experienced BOSS policewoman still pointed out keenly: So what you mean is still possible, right? The technical director was unable to refute for a while.
However, if the plot just stays in the setting of Robobee killing people according to Internet public opinion, then this film will be a bit mediocre, and it is not worth writing a separate article. When the technical policewoman cracked the document and tried to find the perpetrator, the film became extremely exciting. How could such a talented criminal make the kind of mistake that made the policewoman exclaim "he screwed up"? This question not only appeared in the mind of the boss policewoman, but also in our hearts. After the fat Chinese man of the National Security Agency presses the confirm button, the answer is revealed, the story goes, the screenwriter is really great.
You thought you were discussing whether public opinion has the right to kill people you hate, or people say it’s terrible, but you found that it ended up being a trial of mobs who judged others’ evil words at will.
When you fight the dragon, be careful to become the dragon. When you stare into the abyss, the abyss is staring at you. Nietzsche,
when you randomly hashtag others to die, you yourself become a part of evil, no one can do it. Fortunately, this is one of the charms of Black Mirror. People who will be saved in other films will die in Black Mirror. Moreover, there are still 380,000 people. Only Black Mirror dares to play like this. It is cruel and tender. .
In the end, the technical policewoman followed the genius criminals and disappeared on the corner of the street. The film came to an abrupt end. Is it the genius crime to commit the crime, or the technical policewoman fell into the trap of criminals again? I really love this kind of white space and suspense.
