Why not make a virtual version of Smith Jr. as the first protagonist

The development of technology has also changed the settings of suspense and structure. The aliens in [Men in Black] do not need to be half-covered like ET. [Gemini Killer] The suspense that was supposed to be cloned is already a thing of the past, since it is so technically "radical" and hard to carry, why not let the virtual version of Smith become the first protagonist? I don't think this is Director Tsui Hark's goodness The routine of retelling old stories from the perspective of a supporting role. In the current setting, telling the story from the perspective of the younger version is almost full of loopholes, but it is an opportunity and a challenge at the same time. On the other hand, director Ang Lee's father trilogy is so deeply rooted in people's hearts that it has become a symbol and obsession like John Woo's pigeon or even Li Rengang's flying saucer hat. It's hard for me to imagine if Mr. Langchon is still alive, the image of "father" will continue, but one thing is certain, in [Double], the director is still taking every opportunity to "find a father", but he just forgot about a very senior For "dazzling dad and mad demon", it is the only way to empathize and create a solid image of a son. Opening up obsessions and knots on your own does not mean betrayal of the so-called "God of Movies".

    1. It is still a very "Lee Ang" work, "The Hulk" with old wine in new bottles. The discussion is still the identity relationship between the id and the superego, the Oedipus complex of Electra and the killing of the father; 2. The 60 frame rate version seen in the premiere is already amazing: the high-speed express under the wide-angle lens, the subjective perspective lens, The distant scene is quickly zoomed in, the slow motion of the machine gun shooting under the high-speed camera...Impressive; 3. The special effects are super! The planes high in the sky, the fight in the dark, and the tears of the young Emperor Shi are truly culmination!

    Thanks to Pirates of Dreams for the advanced screening. I was fortunate to have a look at the second round of the 120-frame screen experiment directed by Ang Lee. It is a pity that the 60-frame version was watched. The pictures, especially the large-scale dynamic scenes, are indeed similar to ordinary movies. Different, the several action scenes of this film are remarkable, and can be said to be one of the biggest highlights. The high frames bring a stronger sense of reality, and the bloodlines of people can be seen. The young version of Emperor Shi has a hint of CG. Watching a little play. The humanity core of this film is tired by a bit old-fashioned theme, resulting in insufficient stamina, 3.5 stars. In short, this is another bold exploration by Director Ang Lee in the field of film shooting technology. It is also an unremitting attempt to commercialize entertainment, literary and artistic integration and genre films. It is indeed not easy to make money while standing. I sincerely hope that the director can help the audience. Bring more high-level and shocking masterpieces.
