In the future, will I become like you?

After the first "Lego Movie" officially opened the door to the Lego movie universe, after the style and joy of "Lego Batman" and the not-so-exciting "Lego Ninja", we began to wonder whether Lego bricks brought us The freshness and surprise of the company are gradually fading.

In the first half of the process, I have been thinking about this issue. It is more colorful and realistic technology, and the same interesting characters and development. However, you do not feel a little bit disappointed without the first light-up like a mountain.

However, the third act completely changed my mind.

So touching, so exciting, seeing the big from the small, breaking away from simple jokes, the life reflected by Lego bricks is just as thought-provoking as we first saw it. I watched "Breakfast Club" a few days ago, which is said to have influenced a generation of Americans. I have similar feelings to this movie, the same underestimated first half, and the surprise and profound third act behind it.

I kept tears in my eyes for the last ten minutes. This "Lego Movie 2" really tells a good story. When the film arrives, no one left. Everyone listened to the song. An ending song until the end.

This time, I will no longer analyze the various parts of the whole film, I will only say why "The Lego Movie 2" still impresses me.

Spoiler alert! ! !

The first "Lego Movie", in addition to the creative animation, the most impressive is the relationship between the characters in the Lego world, projecting the image of father and son in real life, and finally Emmet and the commercial monarch reconciled , Also closed the plot line of mutual trust between father and son.

In this part, the reality and the illusion are also intertwined. The gap between the sister and the brother caused the Lego world to fall into endless darkness for a time because of the toy. However, Emmet's redemption caused the future timeline to be changed, brother I opened my heart and shared my Lego world with my sister, so my brother's Lego and my sister's toy world finally clarified the misunderstanding and got along with each other.

When you see the end and then look back at all the events in the Lego world in this film, you will know what happened in the real world.

The younger sister invaded the brother’s Lego world with her own toys without malicious intent. It was just a child’s innocence. She still didn’t understand the true meaning of love. So when her brother used Emmet’s hand to make love, the younger sister was just simple. The ground is destroyed. So the brother began to resist the invasion of his sister, and the younger sister visited the Lego world from time to time to play in his own way (we can see that after Batman threw his sister’s toy with a bat dart, the sister’s toy said it missed. In fact, this is A little pride of the child), the elder brother was overwhelmed, so he abandoned the original Lego city and built the wasteland world of Lego, and continued the story in his mind.

The younger sister grew up and learned the meaning of the brother’s heart back then, and in the younger sister’s own star world, the once broken heart became the queen of the star world, but the brother probably didn’t intend to reconcile, so the younger sister wished to think that as long as she was alone Bring the most important character in the world of Lego from my brother, satisfy all the wishes of those characters, and even let the queen marry the most important character in the world of Lego (Master Lego: that's me), and maybe my brother can change his mind.

Of course, my brother didn’t understand. He let Emmett go on the expedition and decided to take back his most important role in the Lego world. I used my character to play the wedding ceremony at home, so I used Emmett to ruin the grand ceremony of my sister.

The contradiction between the younger sister and the older brother was discovered by the mother. Because the toy was the fuse, both the brother's Lego world and the younger sister's star universe were put away.

On the one hand, maybe the brother saw his Lego villain and his sister’s toys together (seeing the heart) and he was awakened; on the other hand, Emmett did not choose to blacken it, so Rex does not exist and Emmett also There was a time paradox that was unable to destroy the younger sister’s building. The older brother knew what his younger sister was thinking, so the two reconciled, and a bridge was built between the two worlds.

This is a story about growth, about what kind of person you will eventually become. The script very delicately integrates the real world situation with the Lego world. In the real world, the brother began to choose to avoid because of the "harassment" of the sister, and finally decided to use violence to snatch his Lego villain; while in the Lego world, An Emmett who failed to expedition alone was unavailable under the washing machine and thus experienced the cruelty of the world, so he traveled through time and space to teach himself to destroy his sister's star universe.

However, Rex is certainly the future Emmet, but should I be like you? Put on your clothes, keep your hair, and even draw a beard like you on your face. Rex and Emmet are two sides of the same person, redeemed and unredeemed endings, future and past selves .

And elder brother, unknowingly, also became the role of his own father in the first part, the cold-faced king who was so focused and selfish in his own world that he did not allow others to touch him.

My elder brother turned out to be like a father.

But is that what he should be like? Is this inevitable on the timeline, or is it our misunderstanding of the world.

The elder brother thought that it was his younger sister who was wrong. The younger sister destroyed his Lego city again and again, and even took away his Lego character, but he had never been like this in the first place. He set up a flying machine at random in his father's Lego school, causing a mess.

The elder brother grew up, so he thought that sticking to self-proclaim is the best way to maintain the status quo, so he closed the door of his soul.

Rex is the same. He has been idle under the washing machine for a long time and is forgotten by everyone, so he also closed his mind and used destruction and cruelty to fill the void in his heart.

Once Rex was Emmet, the master of construction, now he has become the master of destruction.

However, the former Emmet was a kind and optimistic character who was willing to open the door to a poor star. It was easy to close the door, but extremely difficult to open.

The world is not perfect, everything is not awesome, brother and Rex closed their new house because of this imperfection, so they will no longer be disturbed by others, but they also lose the beautiful window to see the world, maybe build a high wall to protect It is not difficult to get up to yourself, but it is even more difficult to open the door to understand, accept, and love someone so that she can enter your inner world. All people have a naive and immature past. Growth does not mean that you completely abandon these, but that you know how to live your life better and how to be more considerate while you have these experiences. others.

Just like Rex, he knows the pain of loneliness, so when he finds that Emmett is worried about, he should be more relieved that Emmett will not become this cruel self.

Just like a brother, he knows that he has come from childishness all the way, so he should be considerate of his sister playing with her, and let her experience the joy of building a world and a universe.

I really like the new role of Mayhem, especially after you know that it represents my sister. That is a cool character. She has a high-tech and indestructible appearance. She uses her own means to try to solve the problem. Maybe this is what her sister hopes to be. However, she is still a little girl in her heart, and she also needs to be understood. She also wondered why everything was not as she wanted.

Naturally, when you know that the queen is the love that your brother once gave to your sister, you will feel even more emotional. When the sister realizes the heart that brother gave to her, how will she make that heart become her star? The most important existence in the universe, and what kind of determination she has robbed her of her brother's Lego role, naively fulfilling all their wishes.

Naturally, it is Lucy's hair that cannot be forgotten. She was also young once, but when she grew up she thought it was becoming deep and cool, so everything that was originally turned into black history was hidden.

But, the experience of growing up is not a precious memory. How many years ago, as a singer, Lucy actually sang a song like everything is awesome, which really surprised people.

Growth is not necessarily a bad thing.

Younger children watching this "Lego Movie 2" may be a story of justice finally defeating evil with reversal and joy; but from our perspective, there is a different taste. This movie is about a person. The growth of a person, a person’s self-identification, is related to the many problems that you have lost and gained, relieved and doubted in your growth. You will remember your naive and embarrassing moments, and the important thing may not be how to forget, but how those experiences will benefit your future. You will wonder if one day you will become your mature, stable, handsome and tall father, and you must also think about whether that is the future you want.

Finally, missing the cute unikitty, has become a grumpy old cat.

    Bruce Willis' hair and air ducts, Elton John's version of Batman; Old Girl's Cosmic Invasion, all kinds of cute gold powder selling the strange feeling of killing cuteness was good, but in the end it turned into a harmonious development commercial.

    The cheapest is Batman: When the unicorn cat’s distress signal was launched as "Happy New Year", Batman responded with embarrassment: I can't believe that this year has passed. Who would have thought that the prodigal son Xiaobat would want to get married, and even teased his friend Superman: Xiaochao, I got married before you, are you jealous? The beginning and ending of Batman are the same: endless darkness...hahaha, "Amama Doom" actually means "Ah, mom is here". There is no new one, but it is still cheap to the bones. "It's easy to harden one's heart, but when you open your heart, only truly strong people can do it." When the real person finally appeared, he was moved by the same illusion at the end of "Toy 3", "Someone always shares imperfections with us."
