's new work "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" extended from the already concluded "Harry Potter" series of films. Although the old story framework and templates are not used and used, they are still inherited and retained. A lot of the essence of the "birth mother", as well as the classic culture of the British magical world. As a new semi-independent and semi-traditional J-style magic movie, it is different from the previous novel stories brought about by the parallelism of animals and dark forces, and strives to shape a new world view in order to form a long-term marketing future for the series of movies. Its appetizers are actually supported by capital to whet the audience's appetite.
In the absence of a solid foundation, it is obviously an unrealistic idea and behavior to create a film work that guarantees box office and word of mouth, but what capital supports is the huge and solid lineup. As David Yates, who has directed several "Harry Potter" series films, he has an easy grasp on "Fantastic Beasts" after he has already figured out J.K's expression and narrative type. and grasp. And J.K. personally acted as a screenwriter, to adapt a small manual for popular science families with almost no storyline, so desperately made "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" into a Michelin-starred restaurant. Appetizers before meals.
However, works that focus too much on one or several external aspects will always cause internal weakness and collapse, and "Where are Fantastic Beasts" is no exception. Able to "delusional" superficial phenomena but unable to see the truth of the inner child. In addition to the chaos inside and out, the unsatisfactory character design is also the most criticized place, and the double-line story has made the film a great challenge in narrative, and under this situation, it is set as a multi-person story. , In the end, it not only shaped the marginal characters into movie stars, but also successfully showed the strengths and weaknesses of the film.
As far as the film is concerned, the tedious and tedious plot of the first half of the plot, aside from the special effects, does not seem to have many highlights, but from the title alone, it is easy for the audience to think that animals will be the theme and the story will be expanded. But it is obviously just a combination of templated plots to pave the way for the establishment of the long-term project of "Capturing Pokémon" carried out by J.K and WB, and the formation of an IP universe of magnitude popularity. It seems to have fulfilled a daydream of the fan group, but it is actually a diversified money-making method dominated by the market, and its perfect commercial means of inferring other things has become the unilateral wishful thinking of the audience.
Aside from the world-class feelings under the influence of the "Harry Potter" series of movies, if the special effects are excluded, the movie "Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them" is just a decent American commercial series brought by the virgin screenwriter. For extreme feelings, it is like the behavior of traders in the aquatic market who pour water into double-layered bags to sell fish, and the audience's refusal to spy on the truth and all kinds of cub protection (illusion) behaviors do not give the movie any way back. It is possible to retreat, and the painful fall after weightlessness after being held to a high place will eventually become an indisputable fact.
