What do non-fans think of Star Wars 8？ Killing is too boring, Porg is cute.
As a non-fan, Star Wars 8 is the first Star Wars movie I have ever seen.
Special feature of 1905 film network In other words, in recent years, new films have been released once a year, and it is estimated that your wallets will be emptied … … (hereinafter referred to as "Star Wars 8") has been released. Have the "Star Wars fans" cut their hands?
But if "Star Wars 8" is the first "Star Wars" movie watched by Xiao Dianjun, do you not believe it at all? Well well well… … Xiao Dianjun must admit that as a bumpkin, I really know very little about this super-large IP that is well-known in the West.
You must know better than I do how popular the Star Wars series is. When "The Force Awakens" was pre-sold, Xie Er, a staunch atheist in the school, knelt down and prayed to God without saying anything (but as soon as he grabbed the ticket, he immediately denied it) ↓
Xie Er knelt down and prayed.
Fans line up all night, bring their own benches, snacks, sleeping bags and even … … The scene of urine bag is not unheard of by everyone.
Therefore, the passionate popular science posts, the in-depth analysis of the "Star Wars" drama god and the N hundred egg stalks must have already smashed the circle of friends. Previously, we also summarized the knowledge points for everyone on the blackboard, so we can scan the film before watching it.

However, the most interesting thing about this film this year is not the box office, but the controversial situation of word-of-mouth after the screening. At present, the freshness of the film in rotten tomatoes is maintained at 90%, and most film critics give high marks of "freshness", praising the inner handling of the characters and even the scene scheduling.
However, the perception of American fans is different from that of film critics. Many people jointly petitioned and clamored to sweep the floor of Star Wars 8, so that the film was removed from the classic series and a new one was made! It can be said that public anger is difficult to calm down and the momentum is huge.
In addition, although the film’s North American box office is still hot, its performance in the mainland film market is bleak and desolate, and it was crushed by "Previous 3".
Xiao Dianjun is not a big fan of Star Wars, not even a passerby fan. However, after reading all kinds of diss comments recently, I found that besides watching PG one Li XiaoLu’s annual drama, the melon of the film industry’s saliva war can also eat 666!
Therefore, I was suddenly curious to know what the so-called legend looks like in the eyes of non-fans.
So I ventured to see the latest masterpiece of this ancient series, and wanted to show you Star Wars 8 without aura and emotional blessing.
After all, objectively speaking, it is just a work created by filmmakers with all their efforts, with defects and climax coexisting.
Visual effect and duration
Despite the controversy, Star Wars 8 is beyond reproach for its gorgeous pictures and exquisite special effects. The production level of this film can undoubtedly be condensed into a concrete representative of the development peak of contemporary Hollywood film technology. The war scenes are surging and magnificent, and both sides’ armies, whether in air or on land in atrix, show their pattern and tolerance with a grand panorama, which is really amazing.
The visual effects of Star Wars 8 once again show that Hollywood is still at the forefront of the world in terms of technology.
The beauty of nitrogen is beautiful. A major problem is that Xiao Dianjun is dizzy … … Why did it take me so long to brush the Star Wars movie? The reason has nothing to do with the intensive bombardment and deafening sound effects in Hollywood blockbusters!
But the intensive bombardment of Hollywood blockbusters is also dizzying.
I’m always fighting in space, and I’m free to fly in the mirror Freestyle. As a person who is dizzy for 3D, Star Wars 8 makes me feel extremely miserable at this level (don’t ask me how to finish the The Avengers and Silver Guard series), especially the length of the film is also epic — — 152 minutes.
Moreover, the endless confrontation between the two sides, which is difficult to win or lose, has long been world-famous, even non-fans know a little. After the novelty fades, it is inevitable that you will feel tired and bored.
Tips
If you are scared when you see the rotating picture, but you still can’t stop watching the Star Wars series, you must lock the position in the back row when choosing a seat.
plot of a play
David Bordwell, a famous film scholar, once said: "Narration is organized to satisfy, change, frustrate or defeat the audience according to the audience’s pursuit of unity."
Well, that’s a wise saying. I feel that Star Wars 8 is composed to defeat my thinking logic … …
Although at the beginning of the film, the director takes care of the non-fans, and when the characters appear, they will be accompanied by biographies to introduce three major philosophical issues — — Who am I? Where did it come from? Where to?
However, there are still some points in the plot structure that make Xiao Dianjun puzzled.(There are spoilers below, please be careful if you haven’t seen the film! )
Andy serkis, the master of motion capture, plays the villain BOSS, and snooker, the supreme leader of the first order, can be judged as an extremely sinister figure by his aura, and his powerful dark energy is even more frightening.
Connecting kylo ren (Ben Solo) and Rey with the Force, and making General Hercus (Ron’s brother in Harry Potter, seeing this face, always thought he was in the wrong crew) kneel on the ground, and knowing Luke Skywalker’s secluded place with powerful mind-reading, I feel that there is no strategy to break.
His sentence in the preview: "Fulfill your destination! (Complete your destiny! ) "there is a kind of momentum that is not angry and powerful, and it is not allowed to resist. At that time, the film did not come out, which scared me to think that Rey had defected and fallen into the dark side of the Force. In fact, now that I think about it, if the future development of the female host completely abandons the routine and is no longer a hero, it is also very interesting to continue to explore the most real complexity of the role.
As a result, the induced sound of snooker urging kylo ren to kill Rey turned into a "poem" for his funeral. The lightsaber suddenly penetrated the body, and the supreme leader was so brutally beheaded and instantly fell to the ground, and Xiaobian looked stunned.
In fact, the audio-visual language in this scene has given full hints. The close-up of snooker, the gradual melody of the soundtrack, the hidden major changes and imminent dangers in the dissonance, the standing position of kylo ren and Rey, and the close-up of the lightsaber position quietly turning are all laying the groundwork for the current turmoil and usurping power.
So what surprised Xiao Dianjun was not the result of kylo ren’s action, but the fact that he seemed omnipotent. Why was the actual attack power of BOSS, which easily held the Galaxy in his palm, so weak? One second, he knew what his subordinates thought, and the next second, the sudden change of painting style was so slow that he died with one blow?
What’s the situation? Is there a bug in the card screen at the critical moment? Of course, the screenwriter can forcibly explain that he didn’t realize kylo ren’s real intention and suddenly died of losing his vigilance, but in the context, he always feels strange.
Looking at this appearance, there is a villain who is like a tree hole version of ET. Xiao Dianjun feels that the previous setting of "seeking defeat alone" has collapsed, and the characters have become vain and unstable, making it difficult to stand.
Besides, what is his relationship with the dark Lord? This person’s background and experience are all a mystery. It seems that director rian johnson is not very interested in snooker, and he has a sloppy and hasty feeling of "calling it a day".
If snooker is a supporting role in soy sauce, let’s talk about Luke Skywalker. When kylo ren went on the rampage and ordered the artillery to storm, his old man’s house was unscathed in the face of bullets, and he also brushed the floating ash on his shoulders, which made him crazy and cool.
At that time, Xiao Dianjun had to understand that all players in Star Wars had their own attributes of great gods (you see that Rey is also a powerful force, so long as the teacher gives a little guidance, she can use it whenever she wants), so I turned to ask an old Star Wars driver next to me:
— — Star Wars is this style of painting?
— — That’s not true! At least I was human before!
We looked at each other, dumbfounded.
As a result, I found out later that Luke is also a master of "apparate", so-called and while one man guards it and ten thousand cannot force it. Actually, Luke played spiritual drift and never left the island from beginning to end! It’s a perfect example of the supreme otaku.
Even worse, even after the death of snooker, Rey and kylo ren were actually connected by the Force! At the end of the film, the two men clearly sensed each other’s existence, but they were all silent and tense. There seems to be some deep connection between them, not just snooker getting in the way.
As for why let two people have a heart-to-heart talk in this way? Director rian johnson explained this:
In fact, it can be summarized in a simple and rude sentence — — The plot needs it!
But where will this mysterious connection lead them? Brother and sister (like Luke and Leia)? CP？ After all, Xiao Dianjun always thinks that Rey’s parents are not unknown people as mentioned in the film, and the director also revealed in the interview that this is still an unsolved mystery, and the final conclusion has not yet been reached.
Although, to some extent, it is quite touching that two tortured children support each other, kylo ren’s small eyes always make us misunderstand people who have no foundation in Star Wars ~
He wants to share the hegemony with Rey, and Finn is obsessed with this girl, and Rose is infatuated with Finn … …
It’s a really chaotic triangle.
Speaking of this, I have to say, which makeup artist did Rose offend? Look at what a good girl the designer is, but the shape is really terrible … …
On the whole, it gives me the feeling that it is still an assembly line work under the mature industrial system of Hollywood. Overall, Lucas and Disney are still in control. Fans may think that the film presents a lot of "anti-routine" plots, but that is within the world system of Star Wars.
As far as film is concerned, I think there is no groundbreaking and painful innovation in this film.
The high point is watertight, and the screenwriter has set up some ingenious gadgets when embedding details. For example, the second half of the film has a huge amount of information, and the story is reversed continuously under the high-intensity rhythm, which is a popcorn masterpiece with real weight.
But the so-called "too much is not enough", just as a picture is too full, and it is better to reach the lofty artistic conception without taking into account the "blank" brushwork.
Tips
Finally, Xiao Dianjun just wants to say that at least Porg and Crystal Fox are quite cute.
