For the "title party" phenomenon

Don't expect too much or you will be disappointed.

I don't know if this movie should be classified as a sci-fi movie, or an action movie, or a sci-fi action movie. All in all, it doesn't compare to what I've seen in "Special Forces 1" before. "1" is the best sci-fi action movie I think I've ever seen, and "2" is currently in theaters, and I haven't watched it yet. In addition, another "Iron Man" series, which I highly respect, "3" is also about to be released. As for "Transformers", "X-Men" and other series, I highly respect. Even "Super Battleship", "Captain America", "Green Lantern", "Thor", etc., which I don't like very much, I think it is better than this movie, and even the "Robot" made by the Chinese is very good. Speaking of sci-fi action movies, of course, they belong to Hollywood, and they are really enjoyable visually, but many "title party" movies are not excluded.

I think it's psychological that we end up disappointed with the person or thing we expect.

First, the lure of Lenovo. After we see some kind of fresh name and special prompt, we will have associations in our minds, so that we hope that the results of our associations will be similar or even the same as our own. For example, when we hear someone mention a beautiful woman with two slender legs, we will think of how slender and delicate she is, but after seeing her, she only has two slender legs, and the rest is horrible. That is to say, people always have a pre-set psychology and give their own wishes to better wishes, and if this wish is blocked, we will be very disappointed.

Second, the trap of language. Language itself is an uncertain thing, but it runs through our lives. For example, I once saw a movie called "Reverse the World", which set a trap with the language of "reversing the imagination" to attract the audience to watch it. But in fact, what the hell is an upside-down imagination, telling an extremely vulgar love story, that is, setting a different environment. It can be seen that "Reverse World" is not about the reverse world - but an orderly world that follows common sense. Just like the movie "Dirty Girl" I watched yesterday, in fact, the girl in the film is not obscene at all, and she is very kind and gentle. in this movie. The term "dirty" is a huge trap. There is also a movie called "A-film Special Forces", which is hoped to be a "fragment" of porn audiences, so I won't list them one by one.

Third, adapt to a convention. Recently, I was reading a book "Poetics of Film", which mentioned an important core issue is convention. Since this book is very esoteric, it involves many literary genres, and also involves a lot of terms and unfamiliar vocabulary. I am not a film professional, so it is really a headache to read this book. Take movies as an example, the phenomenon of "title party" appears to disappoint the audience, which is essentially common sense. Because the film also wants to achieve the ultimate, but can not achieve it, so only rely on the name and publicity, through the language to induce the audience's association and imagination. The so-called convention, in my opinion, is to find a point of convergence, a similar or even the same element, or an old-fashioned plot. Whether watching Hollywood or other countries and local movies, many movies have the same plot, or even the same. For example, let's take a horror movie, such as "The Wax Museum of Horror", "The Eyes of the Mountain" and a series of similar movies. At the beginning of the movie, a group of people travel by car and come to an unfamiliar place. Especially women, the more afraid and curious, the more they put themselves into a terrifying environment and danger zone. The movie "Silent Hill" is also like this, which is in line with a psychological and behavioral convention of human beings. In our daily life, everyone has a tendency to "take the risk", but some people enlarge and some shrink.

Finally, the needs of life. Life itself is the difference between ideal and reality, surprising and painful. This is a fact and a need. If a person lives in fantasy all the time, he will not live in this world because his fantasy world cannot dominate his real world. However, if a person lives in a down-to-earth manner, does not have any illusions about the future, clings to the imperfections, and lives with the status quo, it is not good, and he will feel very tired and lack vitality. All in all, I will be disappointed when I encounter the "title party" phenomenon, but I will never despair. Because, I believe that there are always some people and things in the world that will give me hope. "Title Party" is not full of life, as long as I have a pair of magical eyes that are good at discovering.
