As the saying goes, "Netflix produced, must be a boutique", on March 15 Netflix released another word-of-mouth drama-
"Love, Death and Robots"
douban is currently rated 9. 3. IMDB 9.0, this score can be said to be very fairy. On the 25th, foreign media selected Netflix's 30 best series, and this series ranked 27th.
After watching, I especially want to press my head and give Amway to the people around me: "It's cool!! Very exciting!!! Very enjoyable!! Quick! Show me all!"
This is a collection of 18-episodes animated short films, the director will be from The short animation works of different artists and different lengths from all over the world are made into a series of anthologies, so each episode is independent and has a different style.
is only 5-18 minutes long, but it’s short and sturdy, and you can’t stop watching it. It’s really:
“ is like eating chocolate, you never know what the next one will taste like ”
has not been the first It doesn’t matter if the episode is full of violent aesthetics . It’s okay to slow down, the second episode of is humorous and fresh, is cute, and the third episode is cyberpunk Hong Kong style . Another episode reverses, never knowing what the next episode is what. Behind
there are Eastern European vampires , Chinese style Liao Zhai , etc., covering a wide range of types, including science fiction, war, violence, suspense, humor, and philosophy. You have a great brain, even if you are not an animation fan. , There must be an episode that meets your preferences.
And if you are an animation enthusiast, then this is definitely a gluttonous feast not to be missed. From 2D, 3D, to 3D rendering 2D, CG, etc. has everything available. The special effects are extremely realistic. Sure enough, Netflix's financial foundation is very large. A strong guarantee.
The director who gathers artists from all over the world is Tim Miller , who served as the director of "Deadpool" , and the deputy director of "Thor 2" . The other director of
is the famous David Fincher . Even if you don’t know its name, you must have heard of films such as "Social Network", "Fight Club", "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo", "The Seven Deadly Sins", and "The Lost Lover". He is very pursuing the perfect lens , The style is: dark, cold and deep.
Incidentally, I would like to mention the cooperating companies involved in the production of , "Transformers", "Terminator 4", "Pirates of the Caribbean 3", "Avatar" , Blur Studio,
and among them , Spiderman, and The Invisible Man , SPI, a post-production company of of "Elven Mouse" and "Galaxy Team", etc.
Therefore, the two great directors of + artists from all over the world + selected science fiction scripts + excellent production company + two and a half years of production time + Netflix technology and capital , such a high score is not unreasonable.
How cool is this movie?
Take the debut of the heroine in the first episode, do you feel the cold atmosphere?
The setting of this episode is: the human spirit can enter the body of the giant beast, and control the giant beast to fight. The fighting scenes of
were full of violent aesthetics, with climaxes, hearty, and blood spurting.
Finally, there is a reversal, highlighting the theme " fear of death ", it can be described as a good start.
mention the third episode again, which is also a personal favorite. The story of
takes place in the Hong Kong of cyberpunk, a drunken fan,On the materialistic city streets, the two-player version of "Terror Cruise Ship" chasing each other was staged. The pictures in this episode of
can really blow ! The protagonist is like this:
Hong Kong style style is very in place:
look at this picture again:
does it feel like "Blade Runner":
z2" 13zzz
zz
z2"13zzzzzz

z2" "Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse" ? In fact, the producer of the parallel universe did participate in the creation of this episode. The core of the story of
reincarnation is combined with the gorgeous picture impact , which is really super enjoyable. In addition to being cool,
has two episodes that I like very much, both of which are from British science fiction writer Alastair Reynolds, which are very philosophical.
is the seventh episode of "Beyond the Crack" , IMDB has the highest score of , 8.8 points. The
hero's spacecraft malfunctioned for a long time and was lost in a corner of the universe. The spacecraft was damaged and the crew died. The alien spider he encountered was afraid that he could not bear the truth, so he erased his memory time and time again, weaving illusions for him, so that he would not be so helpless, fearful and lonely, and could die in a beautiful dream.
Some netizens pointed out the "Virgin Mary statue" that appeared in it, which explained the theme of "compassion".
"I care about all the dead souls here"
"At least there is a friendly face here"
But interestingly, this episode reminds me of what Schopenhauer said " world is my appearance " The philosophical problem of is that the world of is the appearance, and the will is working under the appearance, , etc., are very profound.
Another episode with a more profound meaning is 14 episodes of "The Works of Qi Ma" .
Zima is a world-famous master of art, the blue he created is called "Zima Blue" by the world.
But in the beginning, he was actually just a robot cleaning pool tiles, and slowly got his own thoughts. After obtaining a series of achievements, he chose to jump into the pool under the eyes of the world, disintegrate himself, everything on the appearance of faded away, only his original appearance is left:
is a bit like Taoism to bring life back to the beginning The feeling of the first state.
fade away the lead, return to the basics, and return to the simplest happiness .
can also make people think of " Theseus paradox ". After all the parts of a ship have been replaced, is it still the previous ship? Different people have different ways of thinking.
Note that the images in this episode will cause extreme comfort.
In addition, I have to mention the eighth episode "Good Harvests" , the story comes from Liu Yukun , the translator of z4 Liu Yukun , z4.
Imagine the Chinese " Liao Zhai Zhiyi " plus "Alita", with steampunk what kind of story?
was supposed to be a way for humans to fall in love with the vixen, but it turned out that the vixen was able to restore the true form of the fox because of mechanical transformation, and the story of punishing evil and promoting good in the city.
There are a lot of fun and humorous things in this show. For example, cute robots can’t escape the fate of cats:
. At the critical moment when cats need to show their talents, two cats are actually on the room beams (not describe):
z1313, etc. Wait, it's very interesting. The last thing
mentions is the details of . The pursuit of
, such as , has almost reached the level of being fake. Every face can withstand the development of such a realistic technology as a close-up
. In the future, many traffic actors may lose their jobs.
Another example is the beauty of the picture .
There are also a lot of easter eggs, such as the skull in the second episode, which looks like a tribute to "Terminator" .
or the Guns N 'Roses shot
this episode reminds me of "Rye"
of course, also pay tribute to the Vietnam War of a photograph " guns with flowers ."
Even the 3 signs that appear in the opening of the movie are worthy of fun. Every time I watch the opening, it feels like playing a game. There may be a "enter game" button that pops out at any time, and each episode uses three symbols to explain The careful consideration of the content of the series is very clever.
Of course, these are just examples, there are a lot of small details and in-depth thinking that can be explored, which can be said to be a treasure drama.
Regarding creation, I later watched an interview with Tim Miller. He said that Netflix did not give them too many restrictions. As a director, there are no restrictions on animation companies and artists. Even if it is a budget issue, it is based on creation. A type of budget range, as for the duration, etc., are all suggestions and mutual negotiation. The
free, unfettered atmosphere , of course, can 100% inspire the creators' super creative enthusiasm, so each episode also has the artists' own distinctive characteristics, which is very worth watching.
After all, the purpose of Netflix is: what you want, I have .
