Until Tiantian Up on Mango Channel, it was another anime show. The ace producer Maruyama Masao was invited. This old man with a toothless tooth mentioned "Summer Wars" produced this summer, and only remembered that there is such a film. Looking on VeryCD, there is only a standard definition version with embedded subtitles. It is said that the film version was released in Nortel in the summer, which is a pity.
I have to see if the stick is not. It was only after the opening chapter that I found out that this is not a pastoral film... The
opening chapter first showed a future online world - OZ. The mention of this name reminds me of the "OZ Country Adventure" in the animated version of "The Wizard of Oz". Does it have anything to do with the setting? This virtually omnipotent, all-encompassing virtual world feels like an evolved version of Facebook and twitter years later. But a little early, it has been born in today's Japan, a world that can be accessed with Dell computers, Sharp phones, and DSi. From a child of a few years old to an old man with white hair, everyone is more or less connected to this world.
The pattern of the story is simple, the self-learning of the AI program clutters the online world, which in turn affects reality. The otaku protagonist is pushed by ducks to save the world with a little bit of Olympiad expertise. But standing with him is an ordinary Japanese family. At family gatherings, they have seven aunts and eight aunts like us during the Spring Festival. The women are busy in the kitchen, the men are sitting on the sofa chatting and watching TV, the children are running around the house, and the misfit teenagers surf the Internet alone in the corner. ...you will believe that this is one of our ordinary families. Everyone has different occupations and different personalities, but they are inextricably linked with the entire family. Even the prodigal son who has been away from home for many years is still silently waiting for the day he will return.
For about 2/3 of the space, the story progresses little by little, until Sei calls his children and juniors all over Japan to encourage them one by one. The strength of an old man and this makes people more respectful and moving - the head of a traditional family should have this kind of tolerance.
Every detail is in place, whether it's the books on the bookshelf behind the good owner's horse, or a song bug in the grass in the dark night. In the final battle, the family moved in a military communication vehicle, a computer in a server cluster, and a power-generating fishing boat. It seemed absurd, but they couldn't help but believe it was true. Every character in the big family has such a clear image, just like the elders and relatives that you and I have seen since childhood. You would believe that they are like that, a big family holding a computer and mobile phone DSi, frowning and sweating at the crazy enemy on the screen.
The Japanese did a good job of popularizing a handful of flowers in the film. No matter how modern and electronic the nation develops, its adherence to its own traditions always dwarfs us. Only the Japanese can do it by using flowers for a decisive battle.
Rong was only slightly warmed up when he was on the phone, and when the German boy decided to donate ID to support Xia Xi in the decisive battle, I finally burst into tears. Just like the thousands of chanting on twitter, and the silent promotion of common interests by every twitter friend. The Internet will really bring about the great unity of billions of human beings. With 150 million IDs standing behind them, the ending of the story is no longer important.
The day after watching the film, I still can't let go of that emotion. I took it out and watched it again, the same time, the same plot, the same emotion, and the same tears. Go to the designated seat and apply for a seat. If there is a theater version, I will experience that world again.
Yes, and "The Girl Who Leapt Through Time" is a director, Mamoru Hosoda.
