Blind analysis of non-original party

D'angelo 2021-12-31 08:01:15

Because I haven't read the original work, the impression of the movie is pretty good. But I didn't expect it. . . The crowd scolded.

Of course, this film is indeed not very good. Just think about one or two Harry Potter films that someone made. However, when I read the comments and saw some inappropriate points, I still couldn't help but complain. . .

Part 1 is
first of all about the setting of the world view. Many people say that this is a poor quality product of American YY Greek mythology. In fact, moving myths and legends into the modern context is a common technique in the creation of fantasy novels today. For example, Neil Gaiman's works are very popular among the masses. . . Other types of movies/literary works actually love this, such as Hell’s Detective and even The Matrix, which implants Christian/Bible stories into modern and post-modern backgrounds. This kind of worldview setting can not only save time spent in structuring the world, but also make the audience familiar with the background setting quickly, and it is also easy to create a story that resonates. On the contrary, I would like to ask, why can’t Americans yell at Greek mythology? Greek mythology is an important part of Western classical culture. It is deeply embedded in the concepts of Western people. If you think that Americans are not qualified to do so, then what qualifications do we have to involve karma in our works? Reincarnation, even let various gods and Buddhas appear in works with modern backgrounds?

Since it is based on Greek mythology, it is inevitable to be pointed out by the textual mad. Some people accused the setting of a big problem, but few really complained about it. . . To summarize:
First, can Chiron, Medusa, Minotaur, and Hydra be resurrected? The above four have all died in Greek mythology, so what is the appearance of this work? This question, uh. . . It seems that it can only be understood as Hades resurrected them. . .
Second, the person settings of the gods. The rock version of Hades, this one. . . Keeping pace with the times, besides, heavy music is mostly Tunes of evil, of course Pluto likes it. After the black version, this. . . Heavy taste. . . Maybe it was roasted like this by the fire of hell. . .
Third, the problem of dogs in the underworld. Some students reported that dogs in the underworld should have three heads. In fact, the three-headed one is called Cerberus, and Hellhound is used in the film (this is indeed the name of the Queen of Pluto). If you have played Heroes of Invincibility 3, you should know that this is a low-level dog with only one head. But Hades's family should indeed be a three-headed Cerberus, this is indeed a matter of setting.
Fourth, the top comment mentioned that it was Prometheus who stole the fire, but the film stole lightning instead of fire, so don’t get entangled in the complicated relationship between the characters. Who let the damn radio and television set it so absurd Chinese translation name.
Fifth, the shoes of the Hermes family. . . This can actually be regarded as advancing with the times, as for Converse. . . I think it should be a Hermès brand, puff.
Sixth, the setting of the underworld. The setting of the underworld in the film completely moved the setting of hell, and even Hades became the master of fire spells. . . This is quite confusing, mixing the Bible and Greek mythology. Well, Hades is the god of underwolrd, not Satan, the leader of hell. What should the underworld look like? [After crossing the (Stay) River, there is a vast gray plain, which is called the Garden of Truth. There are two roads connected here, leading to the Elysee Paradise, the place of happiness, and the Hell, the place of pain, respectively. The undead were judged by the three judges of the underworld in front of the trial stand in front of the truth garden. The guilty people receive different punishments in hell based on their crimes, and those who are innocent will be able to live a happy life in the beautiful and peaceful Elysee Paradise. ] In contrast, the settings in Saint Seiya are more like the underworld.
Seventh, the effective range of Medusa Petrochemical. In Clash of the Gods, it is said that Medusa's petrification is not effective for women. This film uses the setting of killing both men and women as long as they are creatures. this. . . I think it seems that there is something wrong with the textual research of the battle of the gods. . .
Eighth, it seems that the story in the film took place in June. According to the Greek mythology, the Queen of the Netherworld is not in the underworld at this time. [Every year when Demeter is reunited with her daughter, everything grows on the earth, but in the other six months when Persephone returns to the underworld, everything is exhausted. ] (That is, spring and summer are on the ground, autumn and winter are in the underworld) (It is said that the original novel did not appear after the underworld, but was forced by the screenwriter...)
Ninth, some of the details in the film are still commendable, such as the half-goat man's lust, the mirror beheading Medusa, and the JQ between various characters, which basically restore the setting of Greek mythology. Especially for the beheading part of Hydra, the sudden growth of his head made me suddenly realize: This is Hydra of Greek mythology. I have never encountered it in previous games. . . It's reliable.

Part 2 is going to talk about the plot or something. . .

First, with regard to the question [the dignified gods do not know who the thief is] that the masses generally find incredible, I can only say that you have no idea what the Olympus gods are in Greek mythology. The gods of Olympus are descendants of the Titans. (This is why a certain film is called clash of titans). Titans. . . Uh, if you have played Heroes Invincible, it should not be difficult to understand (the original form of the Titan seems to be Zeus, throw lightning...). If you haven't played, then you can treat the Titans as a race alongside humans, elves, dwarves, and hobbits. . . Zeus, Poseidon, and Hades are all sons of Titanic Ronos (as explained in the opening title of the Battle of the Gods), they overthrew the rule of the old Titan headed by his father, and established the new Titan Olympus. Republic. In short, the gods are titans of higher rank than the old titans. . . This is why in Greek mythology, the gods often show the human (er. Titanic...) side. You must regard them as gods/Buddhas with supernatural powers. . . To say that it sounds good is a cultural gap, and that it is bad is that it is not culturally literate. . .

Besides, even if Zeus knew that the son of Hermes had stolen the lightning, what if you didn't understand the power struggle at Olympus and watched so many Qing palace dramas, you can't even see the intrigue? Wow? Zeus just wanted to take the opportunity to suppress Poseidon. . . Poseidon was very clear-headed. He calmly awakened his son's energy, saying that he would not show weakness, and asked his son to hurry to find lightning, while he was delaying time in Olympus and was spending time with Zeus. Finally, when his son brought Lightning back, the situation was reversed. Zeus faced the Poseidon father and son who had lightning. They were hard to beat with five hands. He could only blame his son for being a busy member of the White House and couldn’t help. , I had known a few more births. . . So the acting Zeus hurriedly pretended to be a good old man. The so-called staying in the green hills, not afraid of no firewood, withdrew the lightning and quickly withdrew, before leaving, he also emphasized the ban. The so-called "prohibition of meeting with children" is indeed not to cover, it is to prevent you from uniting in rebellion! ! ! Poseidon also knew that Zeus was very dark, and obediently sent his son back.


Second, the debut of Poseidon at the beginning is too outrageous, and the special effects show is not like that. The uncle on the side of the road was so scared that you only remembered to change into a suit. . . As expected to be the emperor Calm Ding.

Third, the appearance of Nemesis is a bit inexplicable (the subsequent plot has nothing to do with her), and why should she be afraid of Chiron?

Fourth, continue to brew. . .

There is an Iron Man, Superman, Batman or something, so count, on the earth Seems like not many humans are real humans anymore, lol. It's not pure nonsense. . PS: How can we humans be considered a rare species~
