It seems that the crooked nuts are not interested in Chinese culture, only interested in Chinese money. The export of Chinese culture and Chinese civilization began with the help of the Chinese. That's why we have our own blockbuster.
Endured the embarrassment and finished watching the just-released Hua Mulan. It really was a show full of slots. I was so embarrassed that I couldn't fall asleep in the movie theater. Probably the director and screenwriter's understanding of Mulan, in addition to studying the makeup of the Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties, is only "Mulan Ci", right?
Slot 1: Makeup
Let's take a look at the makeup first, "When the window is on the sideburns, the mirror is decorated with yellow"?
This makeup combines the characteristics of several makeups from the Southern and Northern Dynasties to the Tang Dynasty, indicating that Disney is not without experts in Chinese history, but most of the time, in order to cater to the audience's vision and to satisfy the Western prying eyes on China, Disney deliberately blurred the background and grafted Chinese elements that can be grafted to present cultural things that they think are beneficial to the box office.
However, such crude cultural output and superficial catering have long been unable to satisfy Chinese audiences who have an increasing appreciation for movies.
Have you seen other people's antique makeup? The fairy sister cried and fainted in the toilet.
This kind of Chinese classical beauty still needs to be photographed by Chinese people.
I always thought that foreigners had some misunderstandings about Chinese beauty, but I found out later that they did not. Foreigners have a deep misunderstanding of everything in China!
Previously, I thought that their filming of "Mulan" might have originated from their interest in Chinese culture, in addition to the market box office.
But looking at it now, they have no interest in Chinese civilization. Only interested in Chinese money.
Slot 2: Plot
This movie is, to put it simply, a feminist superhero movie through and through.
Personal heroism permeates the entire movie, and in order to make this feminist superhero possible, a series of brain-damaged plots happen inexplicably.
The story of Hua Mulan has been sung by people from generation to generation, not just because she is a woman, but because she truly protects her family and the country, is not afraid of strong enemies, and has both loyalty and filial piety.
Instead of turning into a female agent, a superhero, one person changing the trend of the entire battlefield, one person saving the emperor.
This is what Captain Marvel did, but not Mulan.
"Generals die in a hundred battles, and strong men return for ten years." Where does this kind of personal heroism put the comrades who died in battle?
If only it was feminist heroism from start to finish. At least it will be a Disney blockbuster with a clear context and a prominent theme. However……
"The east market buys horses, the west market buys saddles, the south market buys bridles, and the north market buys long whips." This movie is estimated to have referenced this sentence, and put together a lot of elements into the script:
Witches, magic, phoenix, feminism, loyalty and bravery, personal heroes, self-righteous conspiracies, nomads who will be light-handed and forgotten later, kingdoms with only one checkpoint on the frontier, brain-dead emperors who "go on a journey" in their own capital...
My God, I can't even describe this mess in words.
If this movie is Black Widow or Tomb Raider, I think it's acceptable, but I can't accept this kind of Mulan.
Can the director, please, carefully study and figure out the core values of ancient China's "foreign Confucianism and internal law", instead of implanting your American values with a history of more than 100 years into the story film that China has sung through the ages.
Slot 3: special effects
Then talk about effects. Is Disney's special effects underfunded, and what does it mean to be a phoenix like a kite?
Is this the Victoria's Secret catwalk scene? Tencent game RMB clothing players have a sense of sight?
Look at other people's phoenixes and yours, the special effects of domestic TV dramas have not been done well...
Personally, I think this movie should be called "The Legend of the Phoenix"?
Every time the heroine wants to hang up, a phoenix appears? Could it be that besides Jean Grey, Mulan also possesses the power of the phoenix?
That General Ye... Ah bah, General Dong!
Isn't that a battle-hardened general? It doesn't matter if you can't beat the witch, what does it mean to gather people in a pile and be smashed by the nomads with a catapult (it really seems to be only one) one by one?
"Battle, it's not like this."
I've never heard of that nomadic people who turned their catapults and smashed them with a catapult when there were ambushes behind them. Is it true that there were ambush soldiers who were killed without turning around?
Besides, people are in the place of an arrow (that is, the place where the bow and arrow can be shot, no more than 100 steps), are you sure that the catapult can hit such a close target?
The brain is not online, and there is no military common sense?
After seeing the actors, there are actually Mrs. Hua and... Qiuxiang?
Let's take a look at Hollywood's right to speak of spiritual civilization. What does the Chinese look like in the eyes of the world?
Carrying forward the culture of a nation is the obligation of every nation, it is a necessary work for the rise of a nation, and it is the only way for the world to correctly understand its nation. The correct cultural export must be done by the Chinese people.
That's why China has its own blockbuster.
