Let's talk about the feelings of this movie, let's start with the villain. But this movie has no villains. Can you say that Professor Callahan is a bad guy? We can say he's selfish, and has done some crazy bad things, but that doesn't mean Callahan is a bad guy at heart - I still think there's more of a father and a professor in his personality. I watched the movie three times over, and the worst thing Professor Callahan did was run after the cars like crazy, and on a few occasions did put them in a very dangerous situation. But I think the reason why the professor is like this is that he didn't want anyone to interfere with his revenge plan (when he and the micro-robot just came up from the water, the micro-robot was holding a part of the magnetic energy ring in his hand), some things went too far It's kind of like being out of breath. In addition, Brother Xiaohong developed Dabai's project. Professor Callahan must be aware of it. He knows Dabai's abilities and attributes, so he should know the fact that this group of people will not drown if they fall into the water. If the professor wanted to kill the group without a trace, he could, but he didn't. The professor lost his beloved daughter, his heart was broken, and he turned on the revenge mode. The emotions of pain, self-blame, nostalgia, etc. condensed into a gushing hatred. This hatred blinded the conscience and trampled on all bottom lines. Normal people have it." The thoughts of "right" and "should not" were replaced by hatred in the heart of turning on the revenge mode. Professor Callahan's state is an extreme state of being aroused by an ordinary person in an extreme situation, but this does not mean that Callahan himself is a complete villain or a world stopper - he only wants to destroy in the end. Drop a company, not rule all of humanity, dominate the galaxy, etc.
Another reason why Professor Callahan is not the villain is that what happened to Callahan happened to both Xiaohong and Dabai.
Xiaohong found that the professor survived the fire and his brother died (Actually, from the situation given in the movie, it can be inferred that the professor should not have a chance to see his brother to save him, and even if he saw it, it was too late to deal with it. It exploded, so the death of Xiaohong's brother was not because the professor was desperate), the emotion that surged in the first moment was the loss of the loved one - just pain, if the professor could correctly respond to this emotion at that time, say something "I'm sorry for your loss" or "I thank your brother for what he did for me", "I understand how it feels" and so on, then Hiroshi's pain won't turn into hatred, but then , the pillar of teaching revenge is gone, how can he convince himself to continue to take revenge? So of course the professor wouldn't do that. He said, "It's his own fault!" This is equivalent to saying that Brother Xiaohong's death was his own right. It was very hurtful and excessive. At that moment, we can say that Xiaohong was "possessed" by the professor and started his own revenge mode. He wanted to teach: death.
This is an escalation of bad emotions, because even if the professor has turned on the revenge mood, his ultimate goal is not to let anyone die, but to destroy Clay Technology, so that Clay can also experience the pain of losing everything.
When Xiaohong removed Dabai's green chip, Dabai accepted the mission of destruction, which was crazy, more terrifying than the professor himself (without the will to kill) and Xiaohong (without the ability to kill) - it has the will to kill, Also has the ability to kill. If it wasn't for the green chip being shipped back in time, the movie would have told a story of a cute creature turning into a demon. The cutest and warmest image in the movie instantly transforms into a most terrifying threat, almost reminiscent of a joke often played in previous sci-fi movies: robots become powerful and destroy humans. But luckily, a green chip saved it all.
Fundamentally, there are no bad people in the bones, but the dark side and negative things in human nature, every ordinary person, even "good people" will have it. Of course this is an old topic, it's not new, but maybe it will never go out of style. From this perspective, Dabai first symbolizes such a positive feeling: never hurt others. This feeling seems simple and inconspicuous, but if it is consistently practiced, it is almost like a Bodhisattva. Later, Dabai did not let the angry Xiaohong open the chip box, which also symbolized that anger should not be allowed to break through this bottom line under any circumstances.
Next, let's talk about Clay. From the beginning, I thought the fire must be man-made. It was Clay who was chasing interests. We saw Clay in the movie. He knew that there was an abnormality in the magnetic field and still let the teleportation program continue to run. It makes sense to put interests above technology. But this only shows that Clay is a businessman rather than a scientist. He is lucky, and he does not know the full consequences of that magnetic anomaly (even Callahan does not know, he thought his daughter was dead, but Actually not). Clay has his own problems, he's not perfect, but not as bad as we think he's going to set fire and kill for profit. When the film did not clearly explain whether the fire was an accident, our "imagination" of the facts was based entirely on the brief confrontation between the professor and Clay, and we completely trusted the professor and were wary of Clay, but the real situation Not so. This may lead us to reflect on the formation of our prejudices in our daily lives.
I haven't watched many sci-fi movies, but I feel that as long as they describe some kind of highly advanced technology, in the end, this technology will in turn threaten human beings themselves. This makes us almost feel the limit of a technology that is difficult to break through: how to make AI learn to love? Will robots be powerful enough to rule humans in turn? But in this movie, the cute and loving image of Dabai refreshes the impression left by the robot. It is no longer a cold iron lump, nor is it omnipotent (at the beginning, it can't even run fast, and it is easy to get injured). , when the battery is low, it is like a drunk), it does not distinguish between psychological pain and physical pain (when Xiaohong asked this question in a difficult way, the brother standing by the side frowned and said that he did not program this aspect), it You can only do things that can improve people's mood according to programmed and mechanized steps. The mind is so simple and friendly, and there is even a "green chip protection system" to prevent this bottom line from being broken again. And how did such a big white come about? - still written by someone. So Da Bai answered the question that science fiction movies seem to have to answer: how to deal with the conflict between technology and human nature? ——Let technology reflect the care and love in human nature. In the movie, although Xiaohong's brother disappeared from the screen early, Dabai has always been his endorsement. Dabai represents an ultimate yet earthy vision of goodness, a vision that even redefines technology: technology is not just an extension beyond the reach of human beings, but even beyond the reach of the human mind. Dabai's two repeated lines illustrate the problem: I'm a robot, and I won't be offended. I'm a robot, I don't get sick. The core meaning of Dabai is that a robot with love and care written in it will not turn on revenge mode due to some unexpected situation (except for removing the chip) and start to destroy or hurt, but a good person can become bad. In fact, the most terrifying villain is the dark side that exists in every ordinary person, never a specific person or technology itself.
The hope and energy delivered by Dabai are also concentrated in its most basic function: healing. However, healing the wounds of the flesh is only superficial, and the core is to heal the cancer of the mind. And this kind of healing is not mysterious, there is a path to follow: the company of relatives and friends, hugging, listening, and comforting; the most fundamental thing is to awaken the love and kindness in the heart of people - this is the video that my brother left behind during his lifetime. role played.
In fact, what touched me the most in the movie was not the parting of Dabai and Xiaohong (especially when Xiaohong started college life smoothly after that was enough to soothe the sadness of losing Dabai. After all, life is still developing in a better direction), but It's that video. This allows us to see a scientist who is constantly striving for his ideals and tirelessly, and also shows us the birth of a cute and loving Dabai, and how many ups and downs and tests he has to go through in the middle. This may mean that it is not easy for a person to always keep "never hurt others" in his heart, but it must be worth the effort. The emotion brought by sadness is only temporary, and the tireless efforts and struggles under the guidance of a kind and loving ideal make me tremble from the bottom of my heart (Dabai: I have a defibrillator, clear!).
So I am against using "warm man" to call Dabai, or using Dabai as a symbol of love. Dabai's feelings are unconditional care and love, never hurt. The word "warm man" is too vulgar and superficial, and the category of love may overlap with Dabai, but the connotation of true love should be more than that. But in the broadest sense, may there be a big white in everyone's heart, and may we all love everyone around us like big white. Even if our bodies will one day fall into the long river of time and space, this feeling will last forever.
