I would like to ask these irresponsible people: Do you really understand? ?
This is an era of the Internet, and the free Internet gives everyone the right to make noise, which is the so-called right to speak. However, this is also an impetuous era. Everyone is immersed in the pleasure of venting their words, but they don’t know what kind of garbage they excrete. They just revel in the narrow world of narcissism and pursue a kind of masturbation pleasure. , lack of reflection on the self and the external world, loss of thinking ability.
The people who detract from Transformers are such unthinking people. These people just watched the movie at a glance, and their understanding of the movie only stayed at the retinal stage. They did not use their brains to think deeply. They arbitrarily clamored for the superficial sensory knowledge as the truth, and devalued Michael Bay, the once-in-a-century movie. Master, raped the compassionate feelings and philosophical thinking that the director poured into Change 2, and blasphemed the sacred art of cinema.
Signed here, I am posting this post to talk about some of my little thoughts.
1. Ontology of "Transformation"
Ask: "What attracted you to go to the cinema to watch "Transformers 2"?" Many people answered: I want to watch "Transformation". Superficial people stop when they get this seemingly answer and don't ask "why". Thinking people will ask: Why do so many people want to see "Transfiguration"? Why is "deformation" so attractive? In other words, why does "transformation" arouse people's desire? Why is Kafka's eponymous "Metamorphosis" the most famous among so many great articles? why………………
According to Marx's view of dialectical materialism, things are in constant motion and change, and the only constant is change. Change is one of the essences of things, and the pursuit of change is also one of human instincts. Film is the light and shadow of movement. It is this point that gives it an advantage that other art forms do not have. It can better reveal the essence and profound connotation of things, and it is more in line with human cognitive psychology. And "deformation" is the most superficial change, the culmination of the change, and the most high-end change, which can be easily and intuitively perceived by human beings visually. This is the charm of "Transformers", the Transformers project the complex unconscious desire of human beings, and satisfy this desire through the fantasy of light and shadow. Freud's theory of the unconscious can also support this inference. It can be said that "Transformers" is a vivid projection of the human unconscious.
Although Michael Bay is not the original author of the "Transformers" comics, as the director of the movie version, he recognized the relationship between "transformation" and the unconscious pursuit of change in human beings, and added his own creative ideas, using all means to satisfy This unconscious desire of human beings. To this end, the director used a lot of brush and ink to express the gorgeous deformation process, and used breathtaking special effects technology to explore the bottom line of human unconscious desire. However, the director's good intentions have been described by some people with ulterior motives as "commercial, cliché, Hollywood", which is not only disrespect to the director, but also inhuman contempt for the entire human race. The director also uses fast editing, so that the constantly changing pictures can stimulate and satisfy the audience's unconsciousness. There are also sports shots, aerial photography, running and being chased by the hero and heroine, especially the hero and heroine who seem to be vulgar to the extreme. The rotating camera lens, which rotates around and around and around and around, is the concentrated expression of the director's skills and the master's skills, and it is a masterpiece. The director uses this series of methods to form a powerful ideographic system, which raises the awareness of change in the unconscious of human beings to an unprecedented height.
2. Ontology of "King Kong"
Middle school history and politics textbooks say that humans make and use tools, which is the essential difference between humans and other animals. The King Kong in Transformers has the outer form of a tool, but possesses human-like "intelligence". Machines have greater power than humans and have existed for longer than humans, but machines are cold and without intelligence. Human beings are emotional creatures, and have an instinctive horror of the cold world, so they imagined God. Likewise, giving machines human intelligence and emotion, combining the advantages of both, creates the image of Transformers, which is also a reflection of human desire. "Transformers 2" uses unparalleled video and audio-visual effects to show a world of man and machine in an extravagant manner, expressing the worship of the machine, and is a fanatical eulogy for the sacred human dream.
This kind of fanatical emotion is actually a kind of morbidity. To use Freudian psychoanalysis, it is actually a "fetish". It can be seen from director Michael Bay's previous films "Jedi Boys", "Brave Island", "Pearl Harbor" and "Escape from the Clone Island" that Michael Bay is keen to shoot hot and intense chase scenes, and has a deep understanding of the scenes. The super control ability can make the audience extremely excited. In the chasing scene, it is inevitable to use all kinds of vehicles. In the movie, these vehicles are super luxurious and powerful. They are both human tools and companions to help human beings gallop. These functions are irreplaceable by human beings. of. It can be seen from this that director Michael Bay's fanaticism and fascination with these vehicles is exactly a "fetish".
"Transformers 2", a film that reflects human fetish instincts, provides a broad stage for the fetish director Michael Bay. In fact, every Autobot robot and even every Decepticon robot can be found in the movie. , every part of them, every deformation, every action, shining with the director's love. If there is no director Michael Bay's fiery love-like fetish, how can the film and the director be so harmoniously combined, how can they produce a violent chemical reaction, and thus burst out the super-powerful energy that fascinates all beings?
3. The growth history of sexually perverted otaku
Although the hero Sam in "Transformers" has a seemingly healthy family, in fact, this family has a hidden crisis. Sam's father is very mother-in-law in both shape and style. He and Sam's mother are like sisters. They lack masculinity. They always tell some boring and bad jokes. The influence is also greater, so Sam's temperament is a bit girly. In addition, the two "mothers" overprotected and spoiled him, cutting off Sam's contact with the outside world, and Sam lost the opportunity to sharpen and exercise in society. Plus Sam is weak. The combination of various factors makes Sam cowardly and timid, and has a strong sense of dependence on his mother, which is the Oedipus complex. Fortunately, his Oedipus tendency is not particularly serious, and thanks to the appearance of the other two love objects——Bumblebee and Miss Spice Girl, he corrected his love tendency and did not heal in the direction of incestuous love. sink deeper.
Bumblebee predates Miss Spice, and the sociable Sam prefers to be with Bumblebee. Sam found his missing strength and courage in Bumblebee, from lack to infatuation, and finally Sam fell in love with Bumblebee. And Sam himself has repeatedly emphasized that "the first car is like the first love". This is a living and typical fetish growing up. According to Freud's classification of sexual perversions, we know that fetishes are also a type of perversions, and we can infer from this that Sam is a perverted patient with a sexual disorder.
Miss Spice Girl appeared, her sexy figure, sizable breasts, and her willingness to give her arms to her arms stimulated Sam's male hormones, stimulated his sexual instinct, and at the same time made him realize the existence of self and gain male dignity. However, Sam's love for Bumblebee is still fiery. It is a dilemma to choose between Miss Spice Girl and Bumblebee. In addition, he wants to get rid of the shroud of the Oedipus complex. For Sam, who has a cowardly personality, perhaps avoiding and not choosing is the best solution. Good choice, so Sam left Bumblebee and Miss Spice Girls and went to college. At this time, Sam was confused in his emotional life, and the derailment incident with the deviant female robot who transformed into a beautiful college student was an external manifestation of his inner chaos and loss of self.
The event that inspired Sam to undergo an essential change was the death of Optimus Prime. Humans have two instincts: one is the life instinct (that is, the sexual instinct), and the other is the death instinct. Optimus Prime is more charismatic than Bumblebee, with more male components. Sam's love for Optimus Prime is more inclined to worship, rather than carnal love like Bumblebee. Optimus Prime's death leaves Sam's idol missing, and the absence leads to a desire to fill the missing, and who fills it? The "I" within Sam responded. Sam's ego is truly awakened at this very moment! So a human leader with a human body, but able to lead a machine, was born.
Of course, the birth of a leader needs a ceremony and needs to be witnessed. This is what the leader's body needs, and it is also what the beings who are led need. Perhaps while watching the movie, you were wondering why the Decepticon robot sent Sam's parents all the way to Egypt, and after they were sent to Egypt, not only did they not use it to blackmail Sam, but they reunited their families with ease. Now understand why. This is because the ceremony requires the presence of the parents. In order for Sam to complete the birth ceremony of a leader under the witness of his parents, under the witness of Miss Spice, under the witness of Bumblebee, under the witness of Optimus Prime, under the witness of all the Decepticon robots!
So those who slander the script of "Transformers 2" can shut up. Master Michael Bay tells a heroic story similar to the birth of Jesus, creating a full-fledged image of a human leader, containing compassionate humanitarian feelings in a watch. in a simplistic story. But ignorant beings slandered Master Michael Bay so much, I couldn't help thinking of Jesus carrying the cross, in order to wash away the sins of mankind, to forgive and go to the end of life, and on both sides of the road, ignorant people are holding stones.
