As an adult with normal value judgments, I followed the attitude of listening and listening, and watched a lot of black and white films before and after the release of a beautiful-looking film, and found that the disputes between the two factions were nothing more than a few moments. a situation. When it comes to the 12-year contract, when all kinds of wind-collecting and tourism feelings have been played out and cheated, but Wuli at least made a beautiful picture. When it comes to characters that are not likable and that the three views are not right, Wuli has a beautiful picture. When it comes to the story is a piece of shit, but you can see Wuli's beautiful picture. Speaking of... It seems that the only thing that can be said is the beautiful picture of your home. Oh, and music, and dubbing, and my favorite teacher, Mr. Jin Shijie. Not to mention who did the outsourcing in the mid-term, who did the music, and who did the dubbing. I think that I was also attracted by this two-dimensional animation circle when I saw such a picture! But when a commercial movie can't even tell the story, other people are blacking you, but you can only mess with the picture, you can only feel that your combat level is too weak. However, it still overestimates the level of the domestic general audience. Among the many comments, the kind of praise is probably that the picture quality is higher, and I feel thankful, and I don’t expect stories, and I don’t expect anything else... This kind of attitude is not high standards and strict requirements. What kind of rotten environment can create Stockholm Syndrome? The problem with this film is obvious. It is definitely not the picture, the music, or the dubbing, because none of these are actually important, and that is the [ story ]. Commercial films are all about storytelling. For commercial animation films, you can't say that with the word animation, you feel that you have to be special. First you are a movie, then you are a commercial! Why is it so hard to tell a story honestly? I don't expect you to speak well. Yes, in the current environment, the audience will buy it if it is well spoken. It's not good, there are still people who pay for the box, and there are people who pay for plagiarism, right? Not to mention animated movies, look at the movies that are released every year in theaters, with real money piled up. Say it again, the core of the [story] commercial film! Well, I really saw the movie that the comments were spoiled to the core, but I was driven crazy by the feeling of "wanting to complain", and I went to see the movie based on the principle of "no investigation, no right to speak". But before I bought the ticket and didn't go to see it, the friends in the group persuaded me pertinently: "Do you have to eat Xiang Xiang to say Xiang Xiang is unpalatable?" Well, I think this is quite right. However, the ticket has been bought and cannot be refunded, and Xiang has also made a reservation. Then I'll talk about how much this Xiang Xiang is flying.
The following is a rant along the plot, there will be spoilers, as well as some of my personal thoughts on the characters in the script and suggestions for revision (use [serious face] to indicate). In response to those who stand in line with the attitude of "you can do it, you can go", I am not following the trend, I really think the script is written shit! But how can we make a bunch of flowers into the reason of flying, we can have in-depth exchanges. What's more, I don't want to gag any more, I just skip it.
Start first. Not to mention the old voice that many people complained about, but the fish expressed in the film . Yes, that's right, this one. Tell me why the fish that appears in the title is a whale species, and then the fish in the entire film are "red dolphins"! The word "red dolphin" was shouted directly from the mouth of sister Kun in the play. You also know that it's a dolphin, what about the fish? Well, I laughed as soon as Kun came out. What the hell is a collar? Run earth? Did you come from Runtu? This is an old joke! Twelve years is right, hahahaha! [ Serious face] As far as the plot is concerned, it is better to directly draw the key props behind the dolphin flute. Why is it a collar! The fact that the male and female protagonists do not have sufficient emotional foreshadowing and forcibly sensationalize is that everyone is in the groove. In fact, why do you feel that the emotional paving is not in place? Love at first sight is not impossible, the key is that after seeing it, there is love, and then what? You can't do nothing, the characters don't act or move, so what's the follow-up to talk about? ! The next step of falling in love at first sight is of course teasing each other, sublimating emotions! [ Serious face] Even if Kun appears more frequently when the red dolphin travels in the world, the red dolphin thinks: Oh, the boy is not bad! Then there are some small interactions, even if you help Kun to catch fish, it can also hint at the crisis behind. Instead of dancing in the water, listen to music. It's really literature and art, Keke. If you force the protagonist's survival situation to conflict with the external environment, it will feel very abrupt, and there is no foreshadowing in front. This foreshadowing, one refers to the foreshadowing of the hero and heroine, and the other refers to the foreshadowing of the fishing boat. [ Serious face] Even if there is a little bit of foreshadowing in front, such as "The red dolphin rescued her sister who was in danger of being dragged into the water by the great force of the fish to catch the big fish", one can show the heroine's kindness and love ( Even if it is revenge for kindness, you want to catch me/fish, but I save you); one can show the deep friendship between Kun and his sister; the other can enhance the relationship between Kun and the heroine; Heaven; one is to show the repentance of the younger sister. Later, the younger sister can find the red dolphin trapped, and then ask the elder brother to rescue the red dolphin... This line goes down, which is the pain and self-blame of the younger sister for losing her elder brother, amplifying the pain. catchCome down, save the big fish scene, the scene transition is inexplicable. I want to express a sense of urgency, I want to be emotional, and in the end, it's music to set off, but as an audience, I don't feel sad at all! Then comes the classic clip in the trailer. Fan girl, when Mr. Jin Shijie's voice came out, my whole body exploded. I am such a rude fan. During this period, the protagonist wants to save Kun. Actually, you want to play the development game, little girl? ! Roughly speaking, what some people have mentioned, why the protagonist goes out with a pot of flowers. There are too many explanations here, everyone can make up their minds at will, but the flower did explain where it was at the end, that is, when Qiu was woken up the next day, he was holding the pot of flowers in his hand. After that, it's the protagonist's pet development game, and the various modern times in the protagonist's room have been complained about countless times. Well, to the rat mother. Tell me what the hell is music! It's too cross! The so-called Chinese style shows Chinese culture? ! After that, I still remember that the rat lady had a gramophone. Good , it's very Chinese. Hong Kong, if you really keep these things, it doesn't matter, after all, the protagonist is not dressed as a student girl of the Republic of China. But the style should be unified, dear! ! The architectural style you see in the world is classical style, and you use Fujian Tulou as the background, so can you simply stick to the classical style? What the hell is the Hanfu Zuozhen? ! Are these really ghosts? (And Meng Po Tang, and the names of many ancient people who have passed away) But you are in Hanfu, can you not be in the Republic of China? ! If you want a gramophone, why don't you add a high-tech phone? ! This "culture" stalk is simply embarrassing. If the world view is not well set, just use the ready-made one, okay? ! Next is the happy life of the spare tire. To be honest, before the spare tire Qiu shouted, "Whose love do you think you received is the love of a god!", I still loved him. (The brain hole of "God" will be discussed in detail later.) Next is the death of the grandfather. But I don't understand, even if the heroine is sitting there, and then the seasons change in spring, summer, autumn and winter, it would be good for me to see more beautiful pictures, but why sit there, and then give a sunset, Give a cloudy day, and then give a sunset, it's gone... gone! What about the beautiful picture? fall! Why only two sunsets, you use this to express the vicissitudes of time? Well, finally the villagers are going to play, and they will play without knowing who is who! Then the mother and daughter simply fought each other as soon as they disagreed! Why mother and daughter, father? What did the father do? What is the father doing? And the voice of the father is also very strange! It's weird to fight without saying a word! It is said that there is no good foreshadowing! The emotional conflict between mother and daughter has always been a few words back and forth. After simplifying it, it is: "You have to listen to me!" "I don't listen! I don't listen!" Can it be better! 【Serious face] The character arc is too monotonous, at least it's a gradual emotional process like "contradiction-ease-big contradiction-final resolution"! Because the role of "mother" as the big parent is a collective voice function of the villagers group, she represents the attitude of the villagers, the attitude towards human beings, towards the sky, towards the wayward protagonist. And it is the interaction between a functional character like her and the protagonist that reflects her functionality! But not at all now! ! [Serious face] It can be that the mother was worried and blamed at first, but still "I do everything for your own good", which also reflects her love for the protagonist. Later, when the fish is found, thrown away, and the protagonist is forced away, this is the first contradiction. But after the protagonist left, the mother was also worried, because she still had love! She chased out and saw that Qiu was chasing out, she could be very concerned or asked Qiu to let him take care of Chun. (Before you must emphasize her love for the protagonist and her deeply responsible attitude!) After that, you can pass a few scenes, and the mother-in-law looks out of the window worriedly, worried about the weather and the safety of her daughter (this It is the humane mother-in-law!). Later, when a villager who did not know if it was an immortal led the villagers to find Chun, the mother stood up and hoped that Chun would repent. This was a preliminary relief. Instead of fighting the law without saying a word! This image doesn't match the image of letting her go after she couldn't bear to hurt her daughter! The characters can't stand up at all! ! That's why so much is written in the parentheses above, and that is the foreshadowing! [Serious face] Continue "Contradiction - Relief - Great Contradiction - Final Resolution". Speaking of the mother-in-law standing up to persuade Chun, the conflict between the two was initially eased, but Chun was in "You are all unreasonable, how can the little pet I raised be a disaster" and "The mother is worried that I think she still loves me, I also love my mother-in-law." She chose the former between the two, but she was reluctant to take action against her mother, and did not dare to make a ruthless attack. (This can reflect the character of the characters, her struggles, her contradictions, and her kindness.) In the end, it still caused a catastrophe, which is a big contradiction. Then in the end, it is she who wakes up and sacrifices herself, protects all those who need protection, completes the self, and completes redemption. This is the final solution. In this way, the protagonist will not look so green tea bitch. But now, whether it is a simple contradiction or a contradiction in the early stage, then there will be a fight against one word, because (the mother and all the villagers) are all "enemies" who go against me and die. Then since they are all enemies, seeing the sister of Ting Mu (? Not sure if the name is spelled correctly) suddenly found out in conscience? I also mentioned earlier that there are problems and no foreshadowing in the modeling of my sister. So overall, it gives people the feeling: green tea bitch, selfishness, touching IQ...become a character that people can't love. Okay, just to rant, this story tells us that the power of green tea bitch is enough to destroy the world. Let's just say the story has reached its climax. Chun came to his senses, sacrificed himself, and saved all kinds of things. Then who will tell me why the spare tire Qiu suddenly went offline! It went offline so suddenly! I've dropped the call... the line is... gone... [ Serious face] I don't know what to say, I don't know what to say... I don't understand the plot here at all... ButMaybe it was because the hand of God felt that it would be useless to manage the flood for the time being, so he forced him to disconnect. Qiu: I have been waiting in the water. Then, I'm going to start trolling the Chinese style I've truncated... The villagers are all cute when they come out, right? Go for a cutscene? The names of the villagers are the most complained about, but there is still a question, why not show their magical powers in the end? Isn't it more or less able to point spells? Are your spells all about growing trees to build a bridge of vines? So what did you learn when you went to the human world to study the laws of the world? Learn to grow trees? Why do you want to become something like a fish learning tree? Because of "aquatic wood"? Not to mention that my grandmother is Phoenix and her name is Feng, can you take dim sum when you name it? Zhuangzi came as soon as he opened his mouth, "there was a great chun in ancient times", but why does it have to be in charge of the attributes of Begonia? Forcing the two plants to mix together, have you ever considered the feelings of the big Tsubaki as a plant! What would you like to name the person in charge of the giant toon plant? Is your name Haitang 23333 and grandma's Phoenix, can you go for dim sum! Have you heard of "Phoenix Indus"? Can't the whole sycamore? Again, Haitang was forced to be drunk. There is also a tree to withstand the flood, the sky is repaired like this? Then the spare tire Qiu parted and fell asleep, and the sky was starry again? After a while, the water made me feel dizzy. As well as the above-mentioned spare tire Qiu and his "Heavenly God" propaganda, I believe everyone has seen the brain supplements on the Internet. It is said that Tianbeng is because Tianshou collapsed with Qiu's mood, and Qiu also knows that he is a God of God, so why not let him Is it not Chun but Qiu who was homeless in the great flood? ! Qiu also knew that he was a god, so could it be that he did it on purpose? So when the Great Flood solved Chun's "sacrifice for justice", Qiu was disconnected? ? Of course, this is just a brain supplement, but still "God" logic, this pot Qiu said "I don't recite it, I don't recite it". However, judging from some other details of the film, it is obvious that the gods can be set in Qiu's body, and then Qiu himself can't control it. And if he comes out as a god, maybe he will wear a mask? some type of? Then the gods are more mature? Lastly, please tell me how many kinds of dragons appear in this movie? It feels like at least two, the dragon of the water god and the dragon of Qiu! And also looks almost exactly the same is also drunk.
Oh, I forgot to mention that the whole story only pays attention to the structure of the story. In fact , there are also problems in the editing of the storyboards. I just remember the last few scenes... First, Chun ran to Qiu to hold his hand... Then Te Chun, what kind of character performance is this? How did this run go! Omg! Japanese drama running! The hesitation-jogging-running action and emotional changes are only drawn for the first two. The running shots for a few seconds look awkward, not like the attitude of worrying about whether something has happened to Qiu! Emotional running, please go to study "Millennium Actress", okay? ! ! Take a look at Jinmin's running! ! Simply! ! Furthermore, Chun turned into a flower, turned into a fish, and finally entered the whirlpool and went to the human world... I thought the flower would float away when it entered the water, but it turned out... This is a forced question, isn't it? Point out the two images of crabapple and big fish? I will ask if necessary! The first time you Chun became a big fish, didn't it change directly? ! Why do you want to change into flowers first and then fish this time? ! Can you express your feelings well? What are the meanings of forcibly addressing the question? The whole rhythm is messed up! At this point, the film is basically finished.
Looking at it all the way, it is actually: what a shit story! It's a waste of beautiful pictures and a waste of good music!
I asked: Is this kind of shit story right for the production staff?
Again, [Story] The heart of commercial movies! A picture without a story, no matter how beautiful it is, can it be used as a desktop or a PPT projection? Not suitable for playing in a movie theater. This is not a short film work in the student days. As long as you can fight the picture and the animation performance, you will lose money. After personal subjective sighs, say some objective views. From the perspective of the presentation of the film, it can be seen that this story originally wanted to carry more things, and there are indeed many things that have not been unfolded. But I don't think it can be developed at the current level, because you can't even write a triangular relationship! The triangular character relationship is a classic character relationship [knock on the blackboard]! ! If it is not written well, it will become the current "green tea bitch" and other bitch variants. As the saying goes, "good stories are always similar, and bad stories have their own bad ways". Just say "green tea bitch". Why is the protagonist a "green tea bitch"? The green tea bitch is just the impression given by the protagonist, but this is even the appearance, you must see the essence through the appearance! What is the substance? It's not that she did those green tea bitches. Yes, what she did. Characters are shaped by the actions of the characters in the story. So why is she doing these things? Because she is green tea! That's not right. Just because the protagonist's name is Chun and she's all plants, it's not like she's green tea. At the beginning of character creation, no one wants their protagonist to be a hated character. We should still go back to the previous question: - Then why did she do these things? A character's line of action should depend on the character's character. Chun shouldn't be a "green tea" character, so why does her character look so bad and unpleasant at all? At the beginning of the story, a "hand of God" is actually needed. The hand of God fiddles with the protagonist and creates an Inciting Event (Kun died for Chun) As usual, the protagonist is stimulated and should follow his own character's action line to make judgments, and then take the next action, the action is resisted , there are contradictions, the contradictions are resolved, and then new contradictions come again... This goes back and forth several times, and finally reaches a climax, and the sage time (fog) after that. But many times in this film, God tells stories for the sake of storytelling, forcing the characters to meet, forcing the characters to love each other, forcing the characters to part ways... all kinds of force. The hand of God tells the protagonist what to do at any step, and the protagonist does it, regardless of whether it is the protagonist's will or not. In general, the characters are not well shaped, or God wants to tell stories too much and ignores the will of the characters themselves. And the success of the character image creation - Dasheng, you can see if you look at the derivative of the same person. Everyone likes this character. Although the script of the great sage is flawed and the final ending is too rushed, the character of the great sage is clearly portrayed, and his interaction with Jiang Liuer more clearly reflects this. As for the interaction of "Nezha is a girl", one chases and hides, one babbles, and an impatient but thoughtful answer. Jiang Liu'er's persistent and arrogant sage is vividly reflected. There are many more such interactions, such as the interaction of "Smashing a Stone in the Foot". The shaping of a good character can form an impressive interactive paragraph. Looking back at this film, I only remember the blunt and inexplicable lines of Wen Qing's actual special secondary school. Some of Chun's and Qiu's lines are too middle 2, and they are indistinguishable middle 2. The interaction between the triangles is also inexplicable. Can't see love, can't see love. There is a problem with the character building, even with the character's action line, and even with the rhythm of the story... In short, there are problems everywhere. However, the supporting roles are more brilliant. If this effort is used in the shaping of the protagonist, this film may be better. Again, [Story] The heart of commercial movies! This is a commercial animation film, first and foremost a commercial film! However, when it comes to business, industry, capital, money... I can only say that the box office of the film is good, and it can even make a lot of money. It is a good thing to attract more capital to have confidence in this industry. Don't you see the prosperity of the movie market, which has been smashed with real money, only with the accumulation of most of the bottom bad movies, can you have the opportunity to see good movies and good stories. But the capital hot money came in, and it wanted to quickly realize the big ticket and then run away. In terms of capital operation, making money is king. However, on the other hand, this investment is a drop in the bucket compared to the movie, but it often drives people's heads and makes people unable to make a good movie. In most cases, wealth is lustful. And the great responsibility for this must be a work of hard work. But people can't live only for feelings. People still have to eat. So now this kind of hot money that comes and goes quickly is coming, can we seize it, how to seize it, and how to use it. Friends, don't care about these details... Let's calm down and discuss how to write a good story.
