The change in science fiction films stemmed from an accidental opportunity. When I was in college, I originally wanted to watch Chen Kaige's "With You", but something went wrong with the film. Finally, it was changed to "The Fifth Element". I started watching the film with helplessness but ended happily. First time discovering the dazzling power of sci-fi and fascinated by the tough guy charm of Bruce Willis. The story of "The Fifth Element" is also similar. It is a great hero who saves the earth. In the end, his prize is love. However, Luc Besson is Luc Besson after all. The whole story is very smooth. The characters, colors, specials are all very dazzling, and there is so much humor. It will definitely be a pleasure to watch this film. So, as long as I can see this film on TV or somewhere in the future, I will definitely watch it, and I have watched it no less than four times, so I decided to finally collect this film! And Cobain Dallas is in my mind the coolest screen image of Bruce Willis.
The relative weakness of the story is always a common problem in many sci-fi films, but if you abandon your thinking and focus only on the visuals, the special effects are really pleasing to the eye. If you come across such thoughtful films as "The Matrix" and "Cube", it will be a double pleasure for the mind and vision!
This time I watched Star Wars and watched the full set of six, in chronological order. Of course, the three main series are far inferior to the special effects of the prequels, but thinking that the special effects of the old beauty in the 1970s and 1980s have this level, it is really nothing to say. It is said that how Lucas made these special effects is still a mystery.
I didn't enjoy watching the original three films. Everyone knows the story. The special effects in the 1970s and 1980s are obviously no longer able to attract my attention, and Harrison Ford is obviously not my type. Princess Leia, who is called a beauty, is not beautiful except for her figure. Comrade Luke is too petite. Only the two little robots seem to have distinct personalities and are quite cute. Watching the original is just to be able to link into a complete narrative. The feeling of surprise belongs only to those people back then.
The prequel is dazzling at once, the special effects can be dazzling, and the visual enjoyment is absolutely guaranteed. In terms of character image, both the little Anakin and the grown-up Anakin are all naturally beautiful, Obi-Wan was also a handsome guy when he was young, Natalie Portman is very pp, and even Master Kui-Gang is very man. The three prequels are therefore definitely a visual feast. Maybe that's why I thought it was messy back then. If I didn't have a complete story concept, I might get lost in the fancy special effects.
Anakin is clearly the most inked character in Star Wars and the most detailed. The clever, cute and gifted little boy in the first prequel is already very attractive. In the second prequel, the little boy became a handsome boy. He was also a genius, very smart, impulsive, strong, always quarrelling with his master, sad and irritable, but secretly fell in love with Padmé, and his tenderness was like water. I'll admit, I was hooked when Hayden Christensen came out. This 19-year-old boy had a boyish boyishness on his face and a tall body. At first glance, he looked very young, but when his eyes were focused, he revealed the evil spirit that penetrated the soul. When he was angry, the evil spirit was even more irresistible. . Lucas is really picky, and Hayden seems to be Anakin by nature. I don't like his look in the prequel 3, there is no greenness at all, and the evil spirit is overflowing, but this is in line with the original intention of the story of Anakin's transformation. Although it was implied in the second prequel that the seeds of darkness had sprouted in Anakin's heart, and even in the first episode, I still felt that Anakin's transformation was abrupt and not handled properly. With Anakin's cleverness, how could he still believe his so-called dark force can save Padmé after knowing that the Speaker is the Sith? Unless saving Padmé was just an excuse Anakin made for himself, in the final analysis he wanted the power that the Sith could give him. Seeing Sanshi was also very angry with the Jedi elders. They did not deal with Anakin's problems well, and they failed to solve him properly and give him a reasonable explanation, so that he, who was strong and suspicious, went to the dark side without turning back. Said to be a complete failure of their own education.
Anakin is a tragic figure. When he turned to the dark side, he also burst into tears. He accidentally killed Master Yundu and let him go to pieces. He completely let himself go with a deep sense of abandonment. The handsome young man who used to be high-spirited and betrayed his relatives and separated from each other. In the original story, he could only survive with the support of a heavy machine shell with a broken body. Everything in life was meaningless, and only power became the only pleasure.
Lucas' interpretation of Anakin is fate. He has no father, but was born with the most powerful force, even more than Yoda. He is the one who balances the Force in the great prophecy, and he will kill the Sith. "You're the chosen one!" Obi-Wan cried out in grief at the end of Prequel III as he watched his beloved struggle. The prophecy still came true, and Anakin, who Padmé and Luke insisted had a conscience, finally fulfilled his destiny by throwing the Sith into the abyss with the last force. It's just that Obi-Wan and Anakin didn't expect him to fulfill the big prophecy in such a tortuous way.
Another manifestation of fate is on 3PO and R2D2, these two robots that have been following Anakin, can so happen to leave Princess Leia, Anakin's daughter, to meet the new owner Luke, Anakin's son, fate It's here to show its power again.
A lot of interesting things in Star Wars are created by the two little droids, and 3PO likes to nag, forcing the owner to unplug it sometimes. Although it and R2D2 are constantly bickering, they are quite caring for each other and share weal and woe when they are really in trouble. They run through all six Star Wars, witness the growth of two generations of Skywalkers, and witness the love between Anakin and Padmé, although their memories of Anakin have been completely purged.
It can be said that watching Star Wars, the most attractive is undoubtedly Anakin, and 3PO and R2D2 are also impressive with their characteristics.
