On a certain day of a certain year and a certain month, many netizens were standing by the window, looking at the starry sky, waiting for the mother star spacecraft to appear at 0:00. The face of the mother star fellow seemed to be close In front of us, the illusion of the mother star made us cry... An hour later, we returned to the computer and typed a line of words: fooled, the aliens did not come. This is an era when the battle for hegemony in outer space is dying. Numerous Armstrong rushing to step on the moon has been described as a scam. People who broke the news consciously support justice and are complacent; "Traveller One" is more like the protagonist of a heroic story. Memories are made, not the future. Science fell to the ground again, and only science fiction remained strong, or grassroots science fiction fans who were unable to fund the aerospace industry. Everyone renewed the story of fading away in reality and approaching in fantasy since 1956. We still have an extraterrestrial dream, in the arms of Mother Earth, calling out to the anonymous mother planet in a straightforward manner.
I have a dream that
every homeless man drives a starship.
This all happened before landing on the moon, actively sending friendly signals to alien civilizations that are out of reach, and launching the Star Wars project and shooting [Star Wars] movies. This is [Planetary Adventure], the dream of interstellar adventure that human beings have begun to take shape.
With the advent of the proton engine, travel at the speed of light became common, and humans began their initial space migration activities. So in 2200, a starship named "Union Planet C-57D" came one light-year away from the earth. In the outer Etil galaxy, the task is to search for the survivors who were sent to the planet Etil 4-Altair 4, and embarked on an adventure. The film begins in a vast universe, and a spacecraft flies idly across the screen. Replace the engine fuel, the age, the name of the starship, the distance from the parent star, and the name of the galaxy. This beginning applies to any space science fiction movie. In other words, this kind of background setting is almost space. Perhaps the only variable in the ultimate formula of adventure science fiction films is: let the story happen inside the spaceship or outside the spaceship?
As for the shots of the spacecraft flying over the screen, it is also a necessary bridge segment for similar movies. 23 years later, when [Alien] at the beginning of the film, the hull of its "Noshmo" transport ship filled the entire screen, and slowly When moving in the lens, it fully shows that in the history of science fiction, every milestone detail has not changed its original intention. What they want to create is the same feeling, the feeling of human beings wandering in the vast and vast, and in such wandering Sentiment has become incidental emotions, and excitement and fear dominate. On the one hand, it contrasts insignificance in the deep universe. On the other hand, it is the self-confidence and extreme inferiority brought by the orderly development of science and technology to mankind. Coexisting with extreme pride, [Planet Adventures] has firmly grasped this basic emotional state from the first shot. In future movies, this state will linger around the beams. If one day, we will truly realize space travel. , To appreciate the endless time and space through the porthole, it must be the same feeling.
I have a dream that
every new world has an AI
robot that is robbing the scene. In the movie, there are roughly three obvious updates-a lot more authentic than Microsoft. The first generation is "Logical". The best in this generation include Robbie in [Space Adventure], Hal in [Space Odyssey], and even Spock the Vulcan in "Star Trek", Also admired is the robotic way of thinking, and the first officer is obviously proud of it. In the second generation, it suddenly became hypocritical. Humans couldn't help empathizing, contemplating the emotions of robots, and "tear jerks" became popular. Therefore, according to the inevitable law of the development of things, the third generation reconciled this. Robots can have emotions, but it is logical. Therefore, first, they do not make moral judgments on their own feelings; second, their emotions are very extreme , You will always see them persevering in the same emotional pursuit, and the celebrities among them include Bender, Marvin and Wali.
Robbie’s shape is undoubtedly a high praise for "logical calculations." The most important part of his body is the head. This is used to process commands. It is also the only transparent part of the body. It is performing logical calculations. At that time, the operation of all components is undoubtedly exposed. As for how the limbs work, the designer does not intend to emphasize that it is hidden in Robbie's black, shiny and opaque body. This is the same as today’s geeks who like to show off their aura. The brain is full of contempt for sports.
Robbie’s outstanding character in [Planet Adventures] made Robbie an instant hit, so it also made a cameo appearance in the hit detective drama series "The Thin Man" (The Thin Man) in that short drama, Robbie Being framed and framed by others, but favored by the protagonist William Powell, which means that it is the one loved by everyone. However, Robbie’s role is not limited to being a confidant of heartthrobs and brother cooks. It and the magnificent invention of Professor Edward Mobis in the movie and the Quail tribe, the aboriginal people of the planet, have built a solid foundation for [Planet Adventures]. Spiritual core. The Quills once devoted themselves to getting rid of the flesh and becoming purely intelligent. They left a huge wealth, a huge machine that can think and repair on its own. This is actually a robot, a giant machine. In their invention, there is a gain device that allows the machine's tiny energy to increase by a square number, and the professor's subconscious mind is amplified and turned into an invisible entity. Robbie, the Quill machine and the professor show consciousness from three perspectives, either mechanical logic generates consciousness, or consciousness mechanization, or the most complex: consciousness undergoes energy transformation in mechanical action and generates new Matter/living body, by the way, also discussed the emotional and moral issues of artificial intelligence. [Plugin Adventure] Thinking about AI makes it completely unlike a 1956 movie, because these three points almost cover some of the most important issues in artificial intelligence science fiction films.
I have a dream,
every heart yearns for unknown boundaries
There is a reality that is very frustrating. Most science fiction films are full of self-critical spirit. Therefore, every invention will cause disasters. Scientists engaged in basic theoretical research are weird people who are responsible for the moral pressure of both right and evil. Only engineering Science officials may be competent for a completely positive role. Some are moral reflections, some are purely creating conflicts, and most are both. At the end of [Plugin Adventure], the Quill’s invention was found to have fatal flaws, and the concept that Professor Mobis insisted was also falsified, and he took his life. However, the overall style of interstellar travel movies is still rising. The story attribute of interstellar travel is essentially the exchange and collision between human civilization and other civilizations, humans and the natural existence of the universe. Sci-fi creators are often full of awe for these objects. Criticism is still focused on human beings. There are few movies to criticize the universe, which is silly, and alien civilization is rarely criticized, unless such civilization is used to insinuate human civilization, such as some extreme political system. . This kind of psychology is not difficult to understand. In the world of science fiction, people are inferior, otherwise we will stop fantasizing because of complacency. Cyberpunk, another sci-fi category, also proved this from the opposite direction. Cyberpunk’s style is basically sinking, and the world it shapes is full of undesirable things, because in the cyberpunk world, fantasy His civilization does not come from other races or nature, but from human beings.
Professor Mobis is still the winner of life. He is full of admiration for the Quill civilization and his sense of inferiority as a human being. This can be seen in many science fiction works. It can even be said that this is a major psychological basis for the existence of science fiction. , This is not a bad thing, we are making progress because of this.
We call the earth the mother. The love for our mother made us choose to stay, and the love for ourselves made us choose to leave, because in the arms of mothers, we will always be children. In order to realize our personality, human beings must grow up. , Our call to the mother star is the call to ourselves. The mother star may be a real planet, but it also carries spiritual sustenance, symbolizing the pioneering spirit of the universe, even on the earth, the progress of mankind It is also accompanied by development. If mankind loses the ability to look up at the stars, it means that this civilization has entered a period of decline.
Therefore, I only commemorate the 1960s that will only appear in sci-fi works now with [Planet Adventures]. In that era, even the skinny old people of the Third World would cheer and cry for the success of the moon landing. In that era, people still Not limited to the interests of the present, they can see and feel the future.
