Finish the calf, Aquaman deep good text .

It's going to be a blockbuster this time. "Wonka" is said to be not popular enough, Ridley Scott's "Napoleon" is said to be too old, and Luc Besson's "Dog God" is too marginal ......None of the foreign films can be sold?It's up to himAquaman 2: The Lost Kingdom

Five years ago, it won 2 billion in China. The special status of "Aquaman" lies in the fact that it reverses the deep sense of bitterness and hatred given by the previous DC "Watchmen", "Batman" and "Justice League", and moves in a more popular and entertaining direction, opening a new situation of "everyone earns money together if they have money" with Marvel. This time "Aquaman 2" returns, it won't be that no one pays attention. It has been released for 3 days, and the box office has not exceeded 100 million. The daily box office is only about 30% of the same period of the first part.

What the hell is going on?Sir's friend, a heavy enthusiast of superhero films@癫火之王阿姨I bought the ticket at the first time. After reading it, he told me that he was about to vomit. Six-word evaluation - a lot of fish. It's redundant.

Aquaman, played by Jason Momoa, speaks nonsense about world peace to the world on the podium. Suddenly, the fourth wall will be broken, and suddenly it will not be serious. The grandson then shook his teeth and claws at the camera as if he had touched the electric door, shouting:l'm aquaman(Spoof Iron Man'l'm ironmanThen the camera went black.

And then the film ends.

And that's it. It's over. Ah, what is this?This is the last sentence that Mr. Jiang Kun spoofed Mr. Guo Degang and left in the Spring Festival Gala, and it was his loud and loud sentence: "There are a lot of people who come, I am very pleased!."”Here it is"Aquaman 2"., not only ruined, but also skinless and faceless. If you're still curious, you'd like to go to the cinema and witness "How Superhero Movies Died This Winter".

Then you have to have a pretty low expectation, because it's going to be a -

Dazzling and hollow special effects bombardment;Rotten and a little disgusting cross talk special;and the reunion story of the protagonists rushing to the end of "making dumplings". Or to put it simply:It looks like a satellite TV Spring Festival Gala. Looking at it, it's a cruel practice against boredom. This is Warner Pictures and a group of reluctant creators who have put the last spade on DCEU's coffinused a gorgeous and boring "Year of the Fish Satellite TV Spring Festival Gala" to give everyone a greeting of the early years. If you really care about the plot of this film, here it isSpoiler alert

There was a legend a long time ago that DC was better at portraying villains than Marvel. But this time, you have pity on these two unlucky bastards - villain No. 1, Black Manta Ray. Leprosy ** skydiving is so bold. was originally an elite monster in the first leftovers, but this time he singled out the beam to fight against Aquaman: in order to avenge the killing of his father, he wanted to kill Aquaman's entire family.

It's difficult to confront head-on, but it's not difficult to sneak up on his family, right?No, it's not rigorous enough. In order to bridge the gap, he finds a lost spear that resembles a magic ring, and decides to resurrect the zombies sealed in ice. And its means of resurrecting them is to invade the realm of the Sea King to grab fuel, and then burn them, destroying the earth's ecology and warming the earth's climate (?So that the zombie legions can break the ice (?And then waved south. My suggestion is: You might as well plant the sun.

From killing your whole family to destroying the world. The mental journey of this neuropathy is like: I swiped my mobile phone for half an hour, rushed 5 648, took ** in exchange for an online loan of 500,000, and paid a down payment for two suites. It was only when I finally remembered, oh, I just wanted to order a takeout. Don't worry, let's take a look at another leprosy **. The so-called ultimate villain. I can't remember the name, but the setting is pretty much the same anyway, so let's call him the Lich King.

Sealed in a polar ice cave from ancient times, the Dark Race first used a black magic weapon to bewitch the neurotic above, and finally appeared in the decisive battle of the Frozen Throne. What is this to bewitch the black manta ray to liberate itself?This is to let people bring the devil home!At the end of the whole movie, it seems that a long-brewing ultimate battle is about to begin. But no. Aquaman threw a fork, he blocked it, and threw another forkTwo long-range flat Aand he was peacefully gone...This is the final demon king that has been brewing for a whole episode, there is no immortal fighting method, no hand-to-hand combat,He didn't even get up from his seatHe ran away as if he was leaving work at 6 p.m. on !!a Friday nightYou're so free?

Stop!You take me with you!

Application question: If you know that the villain is embarrassed to be like this bird, how good can the story of the protagonist be?That is the end of the universe shared by the Spring Festival Gala and "Quick Thrill".we are family。

Family, or brotherhood, is the core emotion of this "Aquaman 2". In fact, at the beginning of the film, you can see a little bit of an attempt to tell a good story: the prologue focuses on the identity contradiction of Aquaman: he is the father on land and the king of the deep sea. From the contradiction of his personal identity to the opposition between the two races, the king of the sea is the focus of the contradiction. But as the villain brings a crisis, the identity issue is immediately kicked away. The script of the previous page is torn apart, and the joyful adventure is about to begin. It's like: finally out and play!It's fun not to go to work and not to take care of your children!

Then, Aquaman and his brother Omu reunited after a long absence, and then quarreled and urinated on the other. In the last episode, my brother killed so many people?Brother doesn't care.

In the last episode, my brother snatched his wife?It's okay with my brother. Like the language program of the evening,The moment they set off, they decided that they were going to make dumplings at the end. It's a pure haphazard journey, with no conflict between the characters, and the emotional portrayal of "Thai Embarrassment" is deeply complex in front of it. The rest is a poor imitation of Marvel Saul and Loki.

Of course, it's not funny.

The lack of contradictions between the protagonists not only has no tension in the plot, but also a devastating blow to the comedic effect. It is said that they are like hammer bases, and they are like touching porcelain.

This is a big fool with two fools chasing and killing the bald head. Among the jokes provided are: the younger brother who lives in the water can't run, and the older brother teaches him to swing his arms;The elder brother plays a bad stalk and complains about the younger brother, and wants to imprison him in "Azkaban";and the elder brother lied to the younger brother to introduce the food of the humans on land. So in the close-up, the elder brother tricked his younger brother into eating a palm-sized cockroach. Seeing such a feat, I took off my IMAX glasses and rubbed my temples for half a minute.

Don't ask me why I rub it, because the cockroaches in Guangzhou are really that big. ）

To be honest, I think most people go to watch "Aquaman 2", not for the story, but the connection between the plot and the plot is clean and neat, which is almost a basic requirement. Boredom, perhaps, bearable. But perfunctory means to add to your blockage. And the more deadly perfunctory is yet to come. The problem of pulling the crotch in the story can be put aside for the first time, and the capital crime can be avoided. But cool piecesIt doesn't look good, it's really intolerable. That's right, that's rightVisuals.

This is obviously the most whimsical part of Wen Ziren in "Aquaman 1", but in "Aquaman 2" he became the first one who should be shot. First of all, there is no doubt that Aquaman 2 has a more adequate budget, so the scale and number of special effects are larger. The saying of high emotional intelligence: the amount is large and the tube is full.

The statement of low emotional intelligence: Come on, feed the two sons to eat cakes. After two hours of gobbling up, you can't eat a bite of chaff in despair.

Why is the first part of "Aquaman" good?Although some people complain that the plot is weak, at least it is spectacular - the underwater landscape, rare beasts, and the Dragon Palace of the East China Sea. In short, it is a "Big Beautiful Male Mermaid" scene, an immersive aquarium experience.

But what did "Aquaman 2" experience?A lot of new stages have also been built: the desert of the monster civilization, the tropical mutated volcanic island, and the polar ice field;Like peeing on the land, the movie desperately sews together all the latitudes that span the earth.

But each space jumps out and levitates, only to gain cognitive confusion and rejection. Because there are almost no details. The theme of this gala is to highlight the word gala, from the first scene to the last scene, all the stage unfolding, all around the two protagonists "sneak in, chase, fight, retreat", monotonous rhythm monotonously repeated. The camera is not willing to be quiet for a moment, chased by sandworms, chased by grasshoppers, and chased by sea monsters. Come in a hurry, make a fuss, go in a hurry. A large number of high-speed moving shots hide the detailed portrayal. It's really too much like the Satellite TV Spring Festival Gala. The two protagonists dance and sing in front of each other, and the background is not very interactive, dancers in fancy costumes.

It's a bit vague to say that. Then I'll summarize it brieflyThe special effects of "Aquaman 2" are only lively, not spectacular. To put it more colloquially, the spectacle is the shot that makes you say "" from the bottom of your heart. If you compare "Aquaman 2" with Marvel's works in recent years, then it can win in scale effect, but you Wen Ziren is obviously the best at these in the last one. To give two examples, one far and one near, both are "Aquaman 1". Far. In order to escape from the siege of the Trench Clan, the two protagonists light fireworks and jump into the bottom of the sea. At this time, the camera separates the sea surface from a surreal angle, and lightning again and again illuminates the dense monsters surging under the sea surface. Aesthetics and fear are highly unified.

Near. In order to solve the mystery with water, Mera casts a spell on the Sea King's head, and the tiny beads of sweat form a drop of water. The character's ability and personality are cleverly put the finishing touch.

The big ones should be beautiful, and the small ones should be wonderful, so that the audience can reasonably "lie down". Special effects, to put it bluntly, are containers of imagination that need to be conceived and created. And this lack of design also runs through the other executive parts. EspeciallyAction scene design。Excellent action design, there are many things that can be expressed, and the cool method is also different. On what occasion, who fights with whom, what ** is used, what ability is used, and what victory or defeat means, should all be reflected in the lens. There are countless excellent answers to this kind. For example, the serial Japanese word punching in "Ip Man", and the serial stepping on the toes in "Kung Fu";For example, in "Justice League", Aquaman surfed like a famous scene falling from the sky and smashing a building.

Don't talk about others, just talk about Wen Ziren. In "Aquaman 1", fights in different environments are presented in different ways.

Inside the submarine, there is a small space.

Wen Ziren's signature rotation lens, without opening and closing, also gave enough strength.

The living room of the room is slightly larger.

Ace**"-style pseudo-long shots, the exaggerated movement trajectory highly echoes Nicole Kidman's actions, highlighting a combat power.

The final battle is fought from the bottom of the sea to the vast sea. Under the big opening and closing, the fast and slow cameras exchange rhythms with each other, highlighting an epic sense of "two people must die one".

What about the action design of Aquaman 2?

I would even like to say,The action is not designed at all. These basic designs, which should have been completed in the creative stage, should have been the finishing touch for the big scene, but in "Aquaman 2", they are boring and the same. The same middle scene, the same fist can't get meat, the same fly from right to left and from left to right, not only can't you die, it's hard to get hurt. It's like watching Wu Jing beat Donnie Yen at the party, which makes people yawn. The famous Poseidon Trident, except for the last two forks to kill the boss, the rest of the time is like a stick picked up in a street fight. Even. Even the plot kills the bridge, TM has to be repeated!Mera flew into the submersible hatch and was shot away. Aquaman flew to the muzzle of the submarine gun and was knocked away by a single shot.

I don't remember exactly, it seems that my younger brother also had a time, and the way of sending people to the head of "hard blocking the muzzle and then being shot away" seems to be a family tradition of their family.

This is Aquaman 2. After such a banal and boring mental attack, I was more confused than angry. Why?Obviously, there is a pearl in front of him, he has calculated high-quality answers and become a dark horse, and he is obviously the same wave of cast and crew, and he has more resources this time (40 million US dollars more).

The answer given was such a long perfunctory. This time, "Aquaman 2" was released in the United States two days in advance, and Director Wen led a team to China to promote, smiling and moving. But under that smile, there are obviously countless bloody lawsuits.

Warner's traditional arts, the leper ** has many tricks on the table.

I'll just take a look at it

Not long after the success of "Aquaman", the sequel was urgently determined, and the start-up encountered the new crown, and the filming progress was difficult;The heroine's lawsuit is constantly in turmoil, and the role is in a dilemma;It was also revealed that the members of the group were not in harmony, and the heroine was bullied;The villain actor said in an interview that "Aquaman 2 is a clown movie";Warner became the owner first, and the content direction of the film was repeatedly deleted and remade, and a large number of reshoots;Then DC became the steward again, James Gunn returned to the helm, and the content of the film was cut again.

Aquaman 2" has a lot of big scenes: Jason Momoa was accused of drinking on the set, Amber Hurd's scene was deleted, and Elon Musk sent a threatening letter to Warner saying "Batman can't show up", all of which tossed back and forth in three versions.

In the first version, Michael Keaton appeared.

The second edition, back to Ben Affleck.

In the third version, the rolling director gave me an order to get out, and none of them appeared, so please say goodbye to Aquaman and DCEU.

The front does not let go, the back does not care, the upper layer is mixed, the lower layer is chaotic, bumps and bumps, sewing and mending, miserable and miserable. "Aquaman 2" is separated from flesh and blood, as if it has experienced many medical accidents. In addition to the evil of capital, it is difficult for you to single out a culprit :Maybe it's because the top is tired, maybe it's because the bottom is annoying, anyway, the final result is that everyone simply mourns and does a small thing, and the collective mess from top to bottom is rotten.

It wasn't a decent goodbye, but the DCEU ended like that. It started exactly ten years ago. Zack Schneider's Man of Steel takes the story of superheroes into a darker, more painful, and more realistic world.

From "Batman v Superman" to "Zao's version of Justice League", in the process, I have seen too many frictions between fans and big factories, and in the final analysis, it is all one sentence:We want creators to have the resources they need and the most creative freedom. But this in itself is a contradiction. If you don't say it, I understand. Commercial films should explore the balance between commerciality and self-expression. But you can't deny that at the negotiating table of superheroes or all the big IPs, creators have fewer chips. In other words—This is the most expensive toy. Only the most well-behavedThe most obedient child deserves to play with it.

It's not decent to be dead, but don't think it's better to be alive.

The Marvel next door has a more obvious wrist. The box office is not necessarily safe, but politics is certainly safe. So the scores of "Thor 4", "Ant-Man 3", "Black Panther 2", and "Captain Marvel 2" are in their early 20s, like a relay, and they are united to bring the entire superhero movie category to the stinking and rotten.

Well, what if the box office is really unsafe?Then dig up the grave and play the cards you have played again.

The century is in the same frame at every turn, and the feelings are full at every turn, but no matter how full it is, it can't plug the hole of lack of creativity.

What can the universe restart again and again?The freedom of creation has long been stifled in the financial reports of large factories;What about more IPs?The more capital, the better. But heroes are never made by money. Remember a long, long time ago - a movie studio did a lot of tickets.

It's just that there is no power to power, and there is no money to ask for money. The protagonist of the movie can only be a second-tier hero who is not popular;And to pull investment for it, it had to mortgage the copyrights of its 12 characters again. Back and forth, dismantling and mending, finally "Iron Man" was born. Later, Marvel President Kevin Feige proudly recounted these difficult years: "People forget that "Iron Man" is actually an independent movie. "Later, does he remember it himself?Some say Marvel is dead. Some say DC is dead. As a superhero audience, I think——Die well, you should have died a long time ago, there is no cure. You might think I'm extreme. But when creativity is sealed in the dead end of Dachang capital, can you think of a better ending?I self-righteously thought that what was needed now was a heavy snowfall, a Ragnarok. Completely extinguish the hot money era of super-British IP, bury feelings and bad jokes deep in the grave, and bid farewell to the old world where capital only reconciles with algorithms. Fuck the shit universe. True heroes will stand up above the ruins.

Would it?There will be, right?Hey. Emotions come up, just talk, forget if you don't. But at least, we have to bury all these unseemly old guys, who should be buried.

You're right. 100 help plan
