Welcome to my official account "Qifengju" (qifengju727)
I watched "Alita: Battle Angel" last Saturday. The structure and concept are not new, but the picture is very good. Overall, it can be given three stars.
After watching the movie, what I am most curious about is what is in that "city in the sky", and who are the people who live there? According to the common sense of watching movies, we all know that Salem can never be a real paradise, and the people who live there will not live the happy life imagined by the people of Steel City.
I looked at the design in the "Gunmeng" cartoon, and it was as expected: the world of "heaven" is prosperous and prosperous, people are healthy and live in peace and contentment, but their brains have been removed and replaced with a chip with a gate— - Stop "dangerous" thoughts from appearing at any time; instead, the "underground" is poor, chaotic, and many have mutilated limbs, but fortunately their brains are preserved.
The original author, Yukito Kicheng, hopes to explore the two types of residents in the "heaven" and "underground", which one is the real "human"?
I haven't read "Gun Dream", and I don't know what kind of answer the comics give, but the brainless people in "the sky" must not be worthy of being called "humans". What about the "underground" people?
Judging from the movie, Ide and Hugo told Alita one after another, don't trust anyone in the steel city, this is a world where the strong eat the weak.
In disbelief, Alita ran to the Kansas bar and tried to gather the bounty hunters to fight together with Gruishka, who was reckless with the support of "above"-her idea attracted the ridicule of the hunters.
Then, Gruishka appeared and vowed to kill Alita. When a monster threatened a girl, the bounty hunters ignored it. The only one who rushed to the monster and tried to protect the girl was a puppy named Xiba, who once ate the food from Alita on the side of the road. food.
In the human world, Xiba's "repayment of gratitude", "courageous actions" and "hatred of evil" are often regarded as an important part of the so-called "human nature". Those bounty hunters who have brains, but who bully the soft and fear the hard, are obviously not as human as a puppy.
Therefore, I was moved when I heard Gruishka say "It seems that there is only one dog who resisted" (to the effect).
I don't know how much the movie restores the theme of the comics. Anyway, in the movie, most people in the "underground" world also lose their humanity and grow a "brain" in vain.
Of course, compared to the brainless people who are at the mercy of others in the "heaven", there are at least Yi De in the "underground" who do good deeds for family, Hugo who is in danger for love, Danzhi who devotes himself to friendship, and who stands up for pets. McTeague.
The original intention of the cartoonist to create the scrap iron town (that is, the steel city in the movie) is probably to think that a society that is run down, harms each other, and where the law enforcers are also bullies, is already a desperate apocalypse. I never thought about it, in the real world In fact, there are many places such as scrap iron town. Those who insist on justice in these places often have the same simplicity as Hiba.
As for the "city in the sky", there is really no such thing in the real world. After all, in most affluent places, people's thoughts are also free. Abundance and freedom are not as contradictory as those shown in Gunmeng.
