Chapter 402 The Philosophical Concept of the King of Science Fiction?(2/2)

This is not bad, but if some directors are not willing to be "embers" and want to recreate or even surpass the glory of the past, the results will often be even more disastrous.

In other words, their movies do not carry their thoughts and beliefs on some grand issues.

This level of creativity is actually willing to be "squandered" on a two-dimensional hand-drawn animation theme?

Artistic creation is output, and people will be exhausted by just output, so there must be input.

While driving home, Jiang Yong was still thinking excitedly: "Now that I calm down and think about it carefully, "Mars" is indeed based on the same routine as "The Center of the Earth", but the things presented are very different..."

When "Gravity" and "The Matrix" were released one after another last year, he thought this was Chen Jingxing's peak, and usually he would go down after the peak.

For film critics like Jiang Yong, it is only in recent years that he has reached the level of reading the director's inner world through movies. Reading movies is like reading people.

The same thing is that both of them burst out with amazing courage and will.

It is not surprising that many great directors in the world have made bad films, or at least mediocre films. Especially for a film critic like Jiang Yong who has read countless films, he deeply understands that talent is not infinite.

.

Some directors may exhaust all the creativity and talent they accumulated in the first half of their lives in one or two movies, and then fall into mediocrity. All subsequent works are like the embers of a supernova explosion, with the shadow of a supernova explosion everywhere.

However, this yin and yang, one sensibility and one rationality, all reach the same goal through different paths, achieving a perfection that transcends the film structure.

If "The Center of the Earth" emphasizes inner activities and sensibility, then "Mars" is almost the embodiment of human rationality.

"Black Mirror" is a surprise. It symbolizes Chen Jingxing's reflection on technology and explores human nature from the impact and even alienation of technology on human society. In Jiang Yong's view, "Black Mirror" marks Chen Jingxing's bid farewell to purely entertaining science fiction creativity.

, with a foundation that can carry and balance both business and art.

Movies often carry the creator's private goods, and generally speaking, only mediocre movies do not have private goods.

In "The Martian", it seems that he has become a hero exploring space and roaring unyieldingly at fate. It is a metaphor and symbol of the faith and courage of human beings in exploring space.

Jiang Yong also checked the source of this poem at that time, which was a poem by Dylan Thomas, a poet in the early 20th century. The most superficial meaning is that the poet strongly hopes to arouse his father's will to survive and use his strong soul to defeat disease and time.

It is said that literature conveys truth, and it is obvious that Chen Jingxing placed some of his beliefs and emotions in these two space works that can be recorded in the history of Chinese science fiction films.

But it does have a focus.

Jiang Yong was excited to go home and immediately wrote this personal film review of Chen Jingxing while his thoughts were flowing. At the same time, he was also trying to piece together the whole picture of Chen Jingxing's personal thoughts.

"The space trilogy... what will be the remaining one? The Walls of the Heart from Aquila Warriors? Or Love from The Matrix?"

The resurrection of the male protagonist at the end of "The Matrix" comes from the kiss of the female protagonist. The discussion of how the male protagonist becomes the savior is also a hot topic among movie fans. The mainstream point of view is of course love. This should also be what Chen Jingxing wants in "The Matrix" something to express.

He has never been so looking forward to a movie that has not even been approved yet. The movie that the stars gathered on the Internet a while ago is obviously not the last part of the space trilogy. The name "Inception" is very similar. Compared with Chen Jingxing's previous works, it seems a bit too straightforward.
