First of all, I’d like to express my opinion. The animated films produced by Disney are my favorite. Although I haven’t watched many, I think the ones I’ve seen are fine. So all Disney’s works are fine. Okay. Partially complete, but it is undeniable that in the position of the animation feature, the current company can shake the leading position of Disney in the industry. I do not despise DreamWorks, which many people admire very much, but I always think that the company's famous work is the "Shrek" series, a so-called anti-traditional animation film. And the tradition he opposes is the so-called Disney model, which uses a large number of disgusting protagonists and strange supporting characters, as well as a mockery of the classic Disney image in a certain movie, to attract audiences. Audiences who have long been accustomed to Disney are attracted by such rebellion. Discovered that animation can still be like this, so DreamWorks became famous. Of course I don’t deny the power of DreamWorks. It’s just that when you produce a work to challenge another company’s work, obviously you regard the other company as the leader of the industry. This comparison is meaningful, so I appreciate Blue Sky Studio more. . In the last century, Disney was absolutely monopolized in the field of animated films, and various excellent two-dimensional films emerged in an endless stream. While many classics were born, many vivid animated images were also left behind. In this century, with the rise of 3D technology, various animated films created by Pixar have become the main force of Disney. Although they have also achieved good box office and word of mouth, they have left the same classics, but even if Pixar is acquired Yes, it's not Disney yet, and you can clearly feel the difference in style between the two. It can be said that in this century, Disney has lost the style of the last century in the production of animated features. It seems that it is relying on Pixar, and occasionally produces a film of its own. People think of many of Disney's early years of movies with animals as the protagonist. However, "Tangled", which was released in 2010, seems to me to be a real Disney animation, which contains many successful Disney animations, such as:
1. Classic fairy tale adaptation
"Rapunzel" is adapted from a certain one in "The Grimm's Fairy Tales", and the adaptation has always been Disney's strengths. Many classic Disney movies are derived from adaptations. There are countless examples, such as "Snow White and Seven Dwarfs" and "Sleeping Beauty" ", "Cinderella", "The Little Mermaid", "Beauty and the Beast", "Aladdin" and so on. In addition to these movies adapted from classic fairy tales, Disney is also good at beasting classics, such as the animal version of "Hamlet" , The animal version of "Romeo and Juliet". In short, adaptation is a long tradition of Disney, and Disney’s can turn these familiar classics into classics on the big screen, so that these fairy tales and other masterpieces can show new brilliance, and the characters are very beautiful. cute. "Rapunzel" also comes from the adaptation of classic fairy tales. The reason why those specific animations were previously listed is because they belong to the princess series like "Rapunzel". They are more comparable and can show "Rapunzel" for the inheritance of these classics, even said that many of the shadows of the previous works can be seen in it.
2. The protagonist of handsome men and beautiful women-the characters
in the movies produced by Disney in pursuit of truth, goodness and beauty are always very beautiful, the beauty of men and handsome women, well, this description is often superficial, but it is true. Not only in the appearance of the characters, Disney's animation exudes a sense of truth, goodness and beauty from the inside out, whether it is the style of painting or the storyline. Of course, most animations are probably like this, but Disney's animations always give people special beauty. Real feeling. "Rapunzel" as a three-dimensional animation film is still very real in the character image design. The characters and real life people are not very different, but some details are modified, which are different from the characters in Pixar animation such as "Flying House". Characters such as Travels and Ratatouille are closer to real people. Of course, this is only a difference in style, there are no good or bad points, and in Pixar movies, we humans usually play the role of soy sauce.
Three, animals are responsible for funny
This is a classic model of a Disney movie. In many movies with humans as the protagonist, you can see more than one funny animal, and occasionally non-living creatures. A chameleon appeared at the beginning of "Rapunzel", and soon there was a white horse with a personality that is very close to a dog. They all have a large appearance rate in the film, and almost all of their appearances are very hilarious. Although I can't speak, the rich expressions and actions can always cause the audience to laugh. This mode of non-human being responsible for funny is not uncommon in many Disney animations. In almost every animation, you can see some unimportant but very funny characters, such as the mouse in "Cinderella" and the cat called the devil. , The flounder in "The Little Mermaid", the hermit crab and the white sea bird, the monkey Abu in "Aladdin" and the non-living magic carpet, the raccoon hummingbird of Pocahontas and the colony in "Pocahontas" The white dog brought by the artist, the Mushu dragon and lucky cricket in "Mulan" adapted from an ancient poem, the elephant and the orangutan Toto in "Tarzan", and the humans in "Beauty and the Beast" Finished furniture can also be classified in this category. These stuff not only play an important role in the plot, but are often responsible for providing jokes. So many examples also show that this is not accidental. It is indeed Disney’s consistent style tradition, and it’s nice to see this in Rapunzel. The continuation of this tradition.
Four, classic songs follow
In many Disney works, songs are always an important part of them. Many character monologues will be performed by singing. In "Rapunzel", the opening witch uses a song to stimulate the magic of flowers, and then After the official start of the story, I used a song "when will my life begin" to describe the daily life of the protagonist Rapunzel and the wishes of the protagonist throughout the whole play. After that, the witch refused Rapunzel to leave the tower and also used a song "mother knows best", and Rapunzel left. Ta later also used her solo singing to express her mood, including "I've got a dream" and the theme song "i see the light", which were performed in a dim tavern, which were both very nice songs. And almost every orthodox Disney movie has a variety of singing, such as the self-introduction of the sea witch in "The Little Mermaid", the monologue of Ariel's yearning for the land, and Sebastian showing the charm of the sea to Ariel. They all used singing. There are many examples of this kind, not to mention them one by one.
In short, you can see many classic Disney movies in the movie "Rapunzel". In fact, you can also vaguely see the shadows of other classic princess movies in this movie, such as the opening part describing the daily life of Rapunze, in the morning. The princess who gets up early to clean up is very similar to the familiar Cinderella. The scene of the hero and heroine watching the sky lantern on the boat has to be said to be very similar to the scene of Ariel and Prince Alec rowing at night in the "Little Mermaid", and it is also about to be kissed by two villains who look very similar. Destroy, this scene is really similar. If you don't believe it, go to the related movie.
Well, having said so much, I just want to say, "Rapunzel" is pretty good-looking. . .
