Spider-Man 2, a story about choice

The first half of the film is about the abusers, pure, all kinds of abusers. That's why the movie is so good, the sense of picture is strong, but the sense of substitution is weak. If reading a book was abused like this, my brother would have thrown the book away, but watching a movie will not feel like this - anyway, the one who was abused was a brown-haired, white-skinned boy. Nothing to do with brother.
As soon as it appeared, the protagonist sadly became a pizza courier. He tried his best to cheat and even used his superpowers to cheat, but he was fired. Then, because he had to spend a lot of time being a hero, he made a mess of his life, his studies declined, and his girlfriend was dissatisfied. By the way, who is the heroine chosen by the stupid director? Are all the young women who can be brought out to meet people in the Amerian Continent dead? Why did you choose such an old and ugly star as the heroine? , Could it be because of the unspoken rules, I had to admire the taste of the director's children's shoes. Well, the rants are over, let's get down to business. In short, in the first half of the film, Parker is very, very, very sad, and even the whole person's luck is in a mess, and even the rent money is useless. Although this boy is still very female, but the female relationship cannot be used as a meal, and besides, the woman he values ​​most is about to fall into the arms of others (although brother still thinks that is actually a good thing for him) matter……).

At this time, Parker began to reflect. What kind of life do you want? !
As the title says, the whole movie is a story about choices. To choose, means to get, but also means to give up. To choose, in essence, is to weigh the conflicting things on the inner balance, and finally pick the heaviest one. Faced with his tragic life, the pain of being misunderstood, the pain of a woman running away, the pain of not paying the rent, and so on, he couldn't take it anymore.
If you have watched the children's shoes in the first episode, you will know that the reason why Parker became Spider-Man, there are three major factors. First, with super powers, he can't help but use them. Second, he is a good person by nature. Besides, which man does not have a heroic dream? Third, his uncle Ben. At this time, the third factor is arguably the most important, not only because of what Ben taught him, but also because of Ben's death. Parker felt that Ben's death had his factor in it, so he felt guilty and regretted, and this remorse occupied a very large weight in his inner balance. It can be said that Parker was "forced into a hero" by his uncle Ben. This can also be seen as the source of all the conflicts in the first half of the film. Since this kind of life is not what Parker really wants, it is imposed by others, so there is some resistance in his heart, and he feels that he is "forced" to give up A lot of things to become this hero.
So there is the first option. Parker watched the psychiatrist and found that the doctor was right that being Spider-Man was not what he wanted. So he chose not to be Spider-Man and became an ordinary person, so he lost his super powers and became short-sighted again.
But later, Parker found that the life of ordinary people is not what he wants (big brother, what do you want?) The rhythm of this film is easy and lively, and the soundtrack is also full of cheerful atmosphere, and the gloomy and gloomy first half of the film is formed. stark contrast. This contrast can be seen as a change in Parker's inner world.

Although Parker did not get his girlfriend back after he became an ordinary person, he still seemed happier. However, even though Ben is dead, Ben's shadow still lingers. I suspect that the couple in it are all projections of the author himself - because they can't do anything but preach, and they all preach in the same tone. Anyway, Ben's wife, Parker's aunt, and Mayam showed up again. And I used a child's wish to preach to Parker, the main meaning is one - you should continue to be Spider-Man, because many little friends need you...
By the way, I hate all those who impose their own will. A person who has the will of others, no matter who it is, for whatever reason, whatever the will. So I don't have a crush on Ben and May. In other words, I don't have a good opinion of the director - because these two are the embodiment of the director's complaints.
By the way, there is an episode in this section, that is, the owner of the Scrooge newspaper, after getting the Spider-Man equipment thrown away by Parker, he was very happy to wear it, and he cosplayed very much there. This passage proves once again that every man (even a woman) has a dream of being a hero or a knight, even a newspaper boss who is so stingy and philistine.
I'm not saying anything against Spider-Man being a hero or anything. What I am against is forcing myself to be a hero because of the wishes of others. The will to be raped is a very painful thing. No matter who raped your will, for what reason, what excuse, what purpose. If a person can't do what he really wants to do, then he will suffer from depression, pain, split, and finally self-destruction in spirit.

The movie plays a trick here. At the beginning, Parker gave up being Spider-Man because of MJ's affairs. Now, with the appearance of Doctor Octopus, he kidnapped MJ. So Parker had to become Spider-Man again because of the woman MJ. I have to say, if a man is spun around a woman from start to finish, he's going to look particularly unpromising. However, considering that Parker in the movie was originally a hopeless otaku, this problem is not big. Why is this a movie trick, because it skips the most important question of what choice Parker made. Here, again, Parker is forced to make his own choices.
We know that forced choices are never good choices. It may look good for a while, but, even if you can beat others, can you beat yourself? One day, the true will of your heart will rebel, overturn this choice, or destroy yourself.
But this is a Hollywood movie, so even a crap protagonist like Parker has a halo. Parker illuminated Dr. Octopus with the protagonist's halo and the mentally retarded halo, making him willingly disarm and surrender, and then willingly let his life and his lifelong dream die together. Holy Shit, He Long Aotian, He Jian Lingyun, the protagonists of all yy books must bow their heads here, this is the ultimate state of the mentally retarded halo. Then, at the wedding of an old woman, MJ, under the aura of Spider-Man (note, not Parker, the scumbag), she of course repented and ran away and threw herself into the arms of the hero - which is also what the audience wanted to see.

In short, in this movie, many people made crucial choices, including Parker's friend, who chose revenge; Doctor Octopus, who chose self-destruction after being illuminated by the halo; MJ, who chose to post backwards after being illuminated by the halo ; Only the protagonist still did not make a choice. The deepest problem is still covered up, the ending of the movie looks very Hollywood, very starting point, great consummation, Parker relies on the halo of the protagonist, not only keeps the identity of Spider-Man, but also gets a person who understands him and is willing to sacrifice for him. girlfriend.
But friends, remember, the evil Hollywood capitalists will not give up like this, for the existence of Spider-Man 3, the contradiction will not be eliminated. You can't be a superhero and also sell pizza or pick up girls or raise a family unless you know how to clone. As for the base friend who has the revenge of killing his father, this Yali is not big, and my brother doesn't control BL.

Sooner or later, Parker will have to choose whether to continue to be a superhero and give up his girlfriend, friends and his time, or return to the life of ordinary people, or choose a bigger dream, let superheroes replace the dark council Rule the land (this is my yy ^_^).
