Beginning this October, after the collective curtain call of the first generation giants of Marvel's Avengers, the next door DC sharpened the sword and finally waited for enough time. The movie "Joker", which is not less popular than "Infinity War", is the lead, followed by the feminist consciousness-led "Batwoman" and the annual big action "Infinite Earth Crisis", which is menacing to catch up with the first half of Marvel. The advantages.
However, between the two hot spots of "Joker" and the big linkage, "Batwoman" naturally appears a bit lonely and thin. Although there is a natural umbrella for feminism and gender equality, in terms of the quality and effectiveness of the premiere episode, this politically compromised drama is destined to be an empty slogan, and may not even reach the same type of drama "The Flash" "And so on the same attention.
DC's annual counterattack is just a little weak!
As a cliché, DC has been upset by Warner in recent years and has dried up. The big movie plan, which could have competed with Marvel, vacillated in terms of catering to the audience and maintaining the quality of the comics. As a result, it was improperly operated and became angry at both ends.
Originally in terms of character creation, DC has an extreme self-primitive character setting, which is different from Marvel’s overly divine character setting. DC uses the dark and light game of human nature, in the traditional battle between heroes and villains. In addition, to further show the superhero’s own humanity and divine fighting. This makes it possible to crush Marvel's somewhat flat settings under the complexity and diversity of human nature.
It is a pity that Warner, which has a controlling stake, decided to imitate Marvel's popcorn drama route, making it longer at the box office. As a result, various deletions and tampering caused the weakening of DC's original characteristics, which caused a very bad influence on the fans of the original dead iron. Then, weakening the character's connotation to imitate Marvel also caused itself to be too similar, but it caused the loss of the box office. Word of mouth, box office declining at the same time, many plans in the big movie field can only be temporarily frozen.
As for TV dramas, the situation where DC's output and word-of-mouth are slightly better is also quietly changing. With the end of "Gotham" and other dramas, the DC main universe gradually fell into a dilemma where no one was the vanguard.
The oldest qualified "Arrow" has been strong for 8 years, and even the best reputation at the beginning has become the end of the strong. Although many branch lines were subsequently connected, the attention was still limited.
"Superwoman" and "Legends of Tomorrow" are the mainstay of the supporting scene. These independent dramas have limited influence, but the victory is that there are many characters that the audience likes to fight the "human sea battle", which to a certain extent saved the decline of a single independent drama.
, and the one that is really well received is the completed "Gotham", which uses Inspector Gordon to make a series, telling the origin of Bruce Wayne and the senior villain who opposed him, using unique character settings and magic The style closely connected with reality quickly circled a group of iron fans. After that, with the exception of the "Doomsday Patrol", which was a full-fledged freak, which barely received word of mouth, none of the other dramas seemed to reach its high level of goodwill.
"Titan" takes the youth route, but because of the character's emotional setting, the expression of emotions is not in place. Moreover, Warner intends to gather the entire comic universe, so whether "Doom Patrol" can have a second season, "Swamp Monster" was notified that the first episode of "Swamp Monster" was cut off for the whole season, which made the expansion of the branch universe become empty talk. .
In the second half of this year, DC's biggest action is nothing more than the return of the starring Tom Welling of "Superman" and the return of Brandon Rose in the movie version of "Superman Returns." In order to cooperate with the current Superman Tyler Hoechlin, complete the CW autumn linkage event "Infinite Earth Crisis". It is reported that this linkage is scheduled to be broadcast from December 8th to 10th this year and January 14th next year. The total duration will reach five hours.
With the tilt of the propaganda, the launch of "Batwoman", which appeared in advance, appeared deserted and no one paid attention.
"Batwoman" is the work used at this time to occupy the position.
Judging from the overall quality of the premiere episode, "Batwoman" is full of carelessness and perfunctory.
In the narrative, "Batgirl" has the realism and magical realism style of "Gotham". It uses a fictional city that is implemented in reality to carry the endless evil and good and evil confrontation in the comics.
is the closest relative of Batman Bruce Wayne by blood. (Her mother and Bruce are cousins, so Kate is Bruce’s niece.) Kate has experienced the death of her mother, the disappearance of her sister, and the absence of the Guardian of Gotham Town All of her can have a tragic childhood, and her adolescence chose to go to the bitter cold place to exercise herself and calm her mind because of the discrimination against her by the authority. However, the disappearance of his girlfriend Sophie and the appearance of the villain Alice threaten the safety of her current family, forcing her to return to the sinful capital of Gotham, where she had escaped.
So, when she returned to Gotham Town, on the one hand, she wanted to resist Alice and retrieve her beloved Sophie, on the other hand, she had to coordinate the internal relations of her father’s new family, and she had to continue to trace the deaths of her mother and sister back then, and Explore the psychological trauma this incident caused to himself and his uncle Bruce, and follow the vine to find out why Batman disappeared for three years.
Soon after her mother died, her father formed a new family with a rich Asian man and had a new daughter. Although the close relationship between the young people makes Kate get along with her new sister who is rebellious and rebellious in appearance. However, the distrust of her father and the natural estrangement from her stepmother made Kate unable to entrust her secrets to the restructured family with complete confidence.
Fortunately, she found the bat cave and the secrets in the cave left by Bruce Wayne. With the help of the black brother Fox, she inherited the equipment of Bruce Wayne and prepared to become the guardian of the new life in Gotham Town. By. The symbolic meaning of
is greater than the practical significance. "Batwoman" is estimated to be a cannon fodder.
Batgirl is the first transgender superhero on the face of DC. Therefore, this is actually a politically correct compromise of DC|Warner. Because the advertised feminist supremacy and diversity are parallel, Batwoman has a certain advantage in creative motivation and publicity stunts. Unfortunately, such a moral advantage does not improve its quality too much, but makes the audience demand more quality. Therefore, in terms of the audience's invisibly uplifting expectations, in the plot of the premiere episode, "Batwoman" actually failed to meet expectations. The opening plot of
is too similar to the previous movie version of Christopher Nolan, and the subsequent development pattern is limited, causing "Batwoman" to bear the title of the heroine and move towards the dilemma of the traditional family ethics drama of Iron White Lotus. On the main line of
, the disappearance of his girlfriend is Kate’s only goal in returning to Gotham Town, and it is also the first wave of Alice Typhoid attacks on her. However, the plot allows the girlfriend who has been rescued so hard to return to the arms of men.
Although we understand the rationality of this kind of humanity compromise, we also understand that the screenwriter actually wants to take advantage of the possibility of rebellion after returning to complete the self-affirmation process of pan-gender people. But this return, in fact, logically obliterated the need for Kate to return to Gotham Town. Although there is the threat that Alice has not disappeared, and the foreshadowing of Sophie's escape from her husband to formalize her sexuality. However, this setting may have no other meaning except to insinuate the invisible oppression of transgender people by the real patriarchal society to disguise them as normal.
Therefore, the plot opens the second line of family ethics-Kate wants to coordinate the relationship between herself and her father's new family. The stepmother is a virtuous woman on the outside and tough on the inside. The younger sister born to her stepmother is well-behaved and rebellious in her heart. As the wealthy family at the top of Gotham Town, she prefers to be an underground doctor in the illegal clinic at the bottom.
Two girls who have their own little secrets have a kind of sympathy for their peers.
However, Kate’s native sister, because she was living outside, became the Typhoid Alice who is now disrupting the peace of Gotham Town.
So, up to now, on the main line of "Batwoman", the love and killing of Kate's family has become the main source of turbulence in Gotham Town. Similar to the main line of "Star Wars" that has always used a family to love and kill each other, "Batwoman" is also trapped in this classic family ethical tragedy.
But the question is, it is still unknown whether such internal conflicts in the family can bring about the ups and downs of Gotham Town. After all, Gotham has a simple folk customs and there are many strangers in ambush. If Kate becomes the temporary guardian but has been entangled with Alice endlessly, then he can return to "Gotham", Police Gordon The eldest girlfriend gave birth to him, the current girlfriend delivered the baby, the current girlfriend’s ex-boyfriend and exThe boyfriend's current boyfriend escorted the strange flower in the blood. Once
does this, the pattern of "Batwoman" can be completely reduced.
's embarrassing "Batwoman", the more embarrassing Ruby Rose
pinches, starring Ruby Rose is 33 years old. Compared to the female superheroes of the same system in DC, she is already considered older. And she has the biggest embarrassment when she comes from Australia. She is the most eye-catching supporting role in everything, but she has not played the leading role so far.
From the first up-and-coming female prisoner in "Women's Prison", a green-haired gun expert in "Xtreme Agent 3", to the most agile gangster in "Fast Attack", even the most shackled female inmate The survivor of the dead "Anti-Umbrella" organization...she is the most glamorous supporting actor in the plot, and the limelight is overwhelming the protagonist. However, having worked with such big-name stars as Keanu Reeves, Van Diesel, Milla Jovovich, Jason Statham, etc., she has never had her own exclusive role.
Ruby is keen to enhance his popularity by co-productions. He collaborated with Van Diesel on "Xtreme Agent", and Li Bingbing, Jason Statham on "Megadon", anyhow mixing up some sense of existence around the big names. Moreover, he is good at using his political advantages in sexual orientation and actively running, and finally has his own pansexual role, so that he and the role can achieve a certain sense of harmony.
However, this production quality somewhat failed Ruby's hard work and painstaking effort. In addition to gender and sexual orientation, Kate’s role is too similar in connotation to the Batman who first appeared in Christopher Nolan’s "The Mystery of Shadows", making the audience lack the curiosity to understand it.
really hope that the editor and director will review the plot of "Batwoman", or get rid of the traditional plot of killing monsters and family ethics, so that "Batwoman" will have a different follow-up development. Only in this way can I be worthy of the basic setting of the character Kate and the hard work Ruby Rose has made for it!
