Growth concept

Following last year's "Frozen", Disney won another Oscar this year, relying on Dabai. This super cute product known as Baiqiuen, Cup Noodles, and Dabaibai has been popular all over the world and has become another superstar in the animation industry, and is regarded as a treasure by countless teenagers and girls. But the success of "Super Marines" is not just because there is a cute product, otherwise those bad movies that maliciously sell cute and have no content will have already become popular. Unpacking the cool packaging of "Super Marines", the core of the story is still Disney's traditional story about growing up.
Developed countries are very concerned about the health of personal psychological growth, so many cartoons with younger age, its younger age is not how naive the characters are, but that it is very focused on how a person's character is formed.
For example, the well-known "Shrek" and "Toy Story", the popular "Invincible Destruction King", "How to Train Your Dragon", "Monster University", "Despicable Me", and the above-mentioned "Frozen". The general framework is: a character full of contradictions and unease → experiencing various tragic reminders → being moved by love → a character full of positive energy.
Let's not talk about Lao Mei's idea that "love" can solve all problems is lazy, but at least all animations are very positive in establishing a correct and positive growth path for the audience.
Looking at "Super Marines" from this angle, what we see is actually a super sad story.
First of all, the male protagonist Xiaohong's parents died, and he died when the protagonist was 3 years old. Why is it set to die at the age of 3? Because from a psychological point of view, before the age of 3 is the best time to cultivate children's attention, thinking logic, imagination and willpower, which can explain why Xiaohong has such a strong "scientific fighting ability" (of course, his talent is also very strong. Important, this belongs to the protagonist plug-in, not discussed). However, 3-year-old children are also one of the key periods for the establishment of attachment and character. When they lose their parents at this time, their elder brother is also a minor, and is raised by an aunt, and the family relationship changes from "indulgence" to "democratic". , causing children to form timid, independent, good at communication and cooperation, and have the ability to think. As for rebelliousness, it is unique to 14-year-old adolescence.
Secondly, the "scientific combat power" of the male protagonist's brother is also a part that cannot be ignored. After all, he is the one who created Dabai (Yashinyue's laugh). As a genius younger brother, Xiaohong's pressure should also be quite large. But judging from the fact that the relationship between the brothers is so good, the older brother did a good job in early education, at least it didn't make the younger brother feel resentful and form a situation of falling in love and killing each other (Luo Shen sneezed) . This situation continued until my brother went to college and devoted himself to study and scientific research, as well as playing happily with a group of friends of the same age in the nerd laboratory. It cannot be denied that people still like to play with their peers (within the age of 5) after all, so my brother always feels that Xiao Hong is a child, no matter how talented he is.
Xiaohong, who was neglected, reached adolescence, and rebellion was the only outlet. why? Do you remember when your brother came to rescue Xiaohong by riding a car, Xiaohong said excitedly: "Hey! It's time!" The excitement on his face was uncontrollable. What do you think, with Xiaohong's genius level, is it necessary to participate in such a low-end robot competition? Recalling the expression on his face when he was indifferently operating the robot to fight, does it suddenly dawn on him?
Furthermore, attentive viewers should have noticed that Xiaohong's aunt. After taking care of two children for 10 years, my aunt should be nearly 40 years old no matter how young. Judging from the clues given by the animation, my aunt is single, at least currently single, and runs a restaurant independently. She is under a lot of pressure. She will try her best to restrain herself when she is emotional, and strive to give the children a harmonious environment. She eats sweets when she is in a bad mood. and play with cats. This kind of situation should be domestic violence in domestic dog blood dramas, at least there must be verbal violence, what "My mother has raised you for so many years and still does not give my mother money to subsidize the family, brother, go out to me as a duck brother, find a good one. Someone married" or something like that (something's wrong). Therefore, an aunt who has such a strong endurance and understands the mood of an orphan who keeps eating sweets and still maintains a hot body (hey!) is also great.
After the tragedy, Xiaohong's inner world suffered an unprecedented blow, and he didn't even want to go to the university he had decided to go to before (yes, he originally followed his brother, and now his brother is gone...). This kind of slump actually lasted for a short time, and the director didn't want to convey too many negative emotions, and instead used the situation where the little robot broke down inexplicably to change the situation-----Xiaohong's "Ow" call A warm man came out.
Dabai: Now the situation has been reversed! It's time to show the real technology!
There are actually three key points for the healing of Xiaohong's inner world.
One, Dabai (brother).
It is undeniable that Dabai is the continuation of his brother's life. First of all, the invention of Dabai by his elder brother is a good proof. Remember when my brother showed Dabai to Xiaohong for the first time, Dabai was expressionless, but my brother was by Dabai's side and took on all the expressions. Although Dabai's understanding of Xiaohong's body comes from scanning, this quickly established trust and intimacy is a simple mode of getting along with his brother and Xiaohong for many years. Dabai will not fit Xiaohong so well. Later, Xiaohong saw the process of his brother making Dabai from Dabai's record. It was a very tear-jerking section, but it also better proved that brother's wholehearted devotion, care and love for Xiaohong, and his love for Xiaohong after he went to college. The compensation for macro's neglect is reflected in Dabai's production process, which is the transmission and continuation of love (if it fails, I will cry again). Including the elder brother repeatedly persuaded Xiaohong not to participate in the fighting, Xiaohong insisted on going, so the elder brother had to take him, and turned to the back, Dabai raised doubts about Xiaohong's behavior several times, including tracking, flying, fighting, but in the end. It's still according to Xiaohong's temperament, which is another form of brother's love for Xiaohong.
I don't know if anyone noticed a detail, that is, when Dabai 2.0 was flying with Xiaohong, Xiaohong looked at himself reflected in the glass of the building. The red Dabai was like the red motorcycle that my brother rode before, carrying Xiaohong, in your car, flying freely, laughing all the way, wandering forever... (the style of painting is wrong!)
Second, the destruction mode is revealed (Xiaohong who has not grown up).
When Xiaohong took out the chip made by my brother, my heart thumped. That is the only connection between my brother and Xiaohong in this world. If he loses it, Xiaohong's life will be doomed. Sure enough, although Dabai, who is in full destruction mode, is simply executing the master's orders, the degree of ferocity is definitely a manifestation of Xiaohong who has gone astray as an adult. The way of expression in this section is very extreme. The director removed the ambient sound and expressed it purely through music. Although we couldn't hear the sound of stone walls cracking, missiles being fired, and bodies colliding, we could clearly feel anger and mania. In fact, people who have experienced this kind of experience will all resonate. When you are angry, you can't hear any voice from the outside world. In your heart, there is only destruction, destruction, destruction.
At this time, if it wasn't for a few reliable friends who still didn't give up to stop Da Bai after being hurt, I'm afraid that Xiao Hong would have really lost his hatred for the ages.
3. Xiaohong's redemption.
You can understand it as "Xiaohong's redemption of the professor's daughter" or "Fate's redemption of Xiaohong", either. At this time, Xiaohong has experienced a part of his growth, and already knows how to resolve hatred and anxiety. With Dabai, he is equivalent to having a brother, and he is no longer blinded by hatred. However, life is not always a good thing. After learning "joy, anger", you always have to face "sorrow".
The farewell to Dabai in the different space made Xiaohong understand that life is not always about gain, but more about loss. The elder brother gave Xiaohong three times of hope (rescue from the king of hell, find the purpose of life, and continue the elder brother), and even more (years of raising and taking care of him), but the elder brother is no longer there, and he can no longer give Xiaohong more things. Losing Dabai is the end of my brother's rescue of Xiaohong. He has taught Xiaohong too much. What remains is Xiaohong's responsibility for his life and the continuation of his life.

Disney's story will not give you a happy ending for no reason. The completion of Xiaohong's growth is the ending and a new beginning of his life.

Just before writing this film review, I watched "The Year in a Hurry" with my old sister. Aside from the inexplicable plot and the frantic lines, the characters' personalities are simply shaped like split personalities. This movie should be called "We flew over the madhouse before we were cured in a hurry". It is more reliable.

There will be no Dabai in our life. Even if people like Dabai appear, we will only be bored, because people are afraid of being close to creatures, and if they are too close, they will feel uneasy, so let’s redeem ourselves.

Rating: 95 points
Overall evaluation: If you don't watch it, you're still a P! If you don't look at you, you're still a P! If you don't look at you, you're still a P! (Important to say 3 times)
