Recently, Fairy Sword IP has faced its darkest moment.
Ju Jingyi and Chen Zheyuan 's "Fairy Sword IV" vs Yu Shuxin and Xu Kai's " pray for the present " (Fairy Sword Six).
gigi was naturally the first to go to trial, and the result was shocking!
Gudou has actually developed to the next level: it is , a fairy tale drama that is more suitable for domestic entertainment of babies.
At the same time, I want to say to all the leading actors: Well, you did a good job, don’t do it next time.
would like to give a brief introduction to young friends.
"Legend of Sword and Fairy" is an IP adapted from the game. It is the originator of today's domestic fairy tale dramas. The storyline of each film is actually not complicated. It is nothing more than the protagonist's grievances and resentments and the young man's change of destiny. story.
But Fairy Sword 4 and 6, from the play itself to the actors' performances, all correspond to their names:
Four and six are not in tune, and the two swords "avoid" together.
"Four of Sword and Sword" has not even started yet, but the male and female protagonists have already started fighting. When will
be able to compete in acting?
Ju Jingyi still maintains her semi-permanent makeup that has remained unchanged for thousands of years and her always-on image management.
Han Lingsha, whom she plays, is a clever tomb robber. When she appears, she wears a red dress and climbs a mountain.
Idols have a lot of baggage, and they often make various little moves to tidy up their clothes and image, which is very funny.
put all the effort into the image, but ignored the expression.
shook his head, his eyes flickered, and his mouth had his own thoughts.
The character Han Lingsha seems lively and cheerful, but in fact she is burdened with a heavy family destiny, and her character is stable and heavy-handed.
And Ju Jingyi's arrogant and gesticulating performance only made people see her frivolity and willfulness.
The male protagonist Chen Zheyuan is even worse.
plays the naive of a young man into a mentally retarded .
His vigorous body language turned the boy's unknown knowledge into ignorance.
Not to mention such wasteful and stupid dialogue, I really can’t believe this is a drama in 2024.
"Don't think you are the only one who has a father", "Lingsha, you also have a father"...
"I am a beautiful girl after all", "A girl is a young woman, are you a woman?"...
Although there is an article on acting It’s not worth it, but the cost of this drama is not low. costs more than 300 million .
However, for this 300 million big production, the special effects are like this:
The setting is like this ↓↓↓ The main theme is a dark underworld color , for fear of being seen clearly by the audience.
As for the human part of the Yangjian, it mainly focuses on the photo studio style of Abao color, which is full of plastic feel.
Everyone in "Pray for the Present" has to thank "Sword and Sword IV" for sending their colleagues in advance.
The failure of "Sword and Sword IV" has helped increase the popularity of "Prayer for the Present".
Especially Yu Shuxin, she probably never imagined that one day she would be able to overwhelm her with acting skills.
But to be honest, Yu Shuxin is not qualified to push Ju Jingyi down.
She just copied a little orchid , and it is a version that is not easy to use (or it can be said to be the gender-transformed of the previous Chen Zheyuan).
's body movements that he considers to be adorable and invincible, coupled with the tingling sound that makes people sit on pins and needles... just putting it there as background sound makes my head hurt.
I feel really helpless watching a drama alone. I have never had such a strong desire for an actor to choose to dub.
Every action, from closing the eyes to opening them, raising the head, and pouting the mouth when eating are all designed. Can I say... is it more torturous than the previous "Sword and Sword IV"?
Similarly, "Sword of Immortal" is obviously a male-oriented IP. Xu Kai and Chen Zheyuan are half as good as each other, but they can be beautiful and invisible.
just wants to ask Teacher Xu Kai a question: Do you speak without opening your mouth?
's mouth movements are so small that even if he's not serious, you wouldn't even know he's reading his lines.
Xu Kai plays Yue Jinchao. In order to express the youthful spirit, he worked hard on wooden acting.
For example, doing eye exercises with your eyes wide open, trying to pretend to be innocent.
Or maybe you put magnets on your brows and try to frown to look deep.
However, most of the time he maintains his facial paralysis. The tilted head and mandible are really the essence of Teacher Yang Yang.
The two dramas came out in a row, and netizens couldn't help but enthusiastically open the mic:
To be honest, saying that these two dramas are children's dramas is a bit insulting to children.
This can’t help but make people sigh.
The pinnacle of domestic Xianxia has actually entered an era of inferiority with such an attitude.
Looking at the current fairy tale dramas at a glance, the righteous ones are in the funereal style, while the villains are in the dark style.
And in the past, it was truly a hundred flowers blooming.
From the casting to the costumes and accessories, everything fits the characters perfectly, and everyone seems to be born for the role.
Even the BGM that follows the plot has become a divine song.
Let’s turn the time back to 19 years ago.
2009's "Legend of Sword and Fairy", the first work of the fairy tale drama -
has both the carefreeness of a fairy and the character of a knight.
is also a teenager, and Hu Ge's immaturity is full of cleverness.
He truly performed the growth history of a young hero, from ignorance to righteousness. The opening song "Slaying the Wolf" sang the wantonness of flying with a sword.
In addition to the ironclad Hu Ge, female group portraits and beautiful CP lines are also the most impressive parts of the film version of "Sword and Fairy".
Bai Yueguang Zhao Ling'er in "Xian 1", the screen image of the fairy sister has Liu Yifei's name written on it from now on.
With just a pair of elegant headdresses, this face can make Qing Shui Hibiscus so concrete.
Hu Ge's song "Rain in June", exclusive BGM for Ling'er and Li Xiaoyao.
In the peach blossom forest full of flower bags, Ling'er smiled and called "Brother Xiaoyao", and many people's hearts melted ~
This is one of the reasons why Xianjian IP can become a classic.
In today’s ancient puppets, the leading actors all play their own roles, so they can only forcefully spread sugar through deliberate physical contact.
is simple and crude like this:
The advanced version is like this ↓↓↓ Slow motion, bgm starts, like some bitter love song mv visual sense .
But every vivid character in Fairy Sword has a smooth emotional line, and even the CP lines of the supporting characters are impressive.
Lin Yueru, who is deeply in love with Li Xiaoyao, , her love is like Ah Sang's "Always Quiet". In the end, she chooses to sacrifice herself to fulfill Li Xiaoyao and Zhao Ling'er. She is too stupid and crazy.
The foodie Anu played by Liu Pinyan is quirky and innocent. This is the sweet girl!
She and Tang Yu, the pair of silly CPs who have the most laughs, how many people are unhappy with each other?
Fortunately, the ending of turning into a flying bird is considered a happy ending.
There are also cp representatives from the middle-aged group, Jiujianxian and Saint Aunt .
A sweet and sad couple, they contributed a textbook-level flirtation and wrote a vigorous and soul-stirring love.
"Xian 3" became even more popular.
The male protagonists include Hu Ge and Huo Jianhua, while the female protagonist holds out three 85 flowers at once.
Quite literally.
Even after so many years, 85 flowers have almost never encountered a role that can surpass their own.
Everyone is beautiful in his or her own way. Even today, Fu Huadao is not plastic.
Yang Mi should be regarded as the most popular among the girls group back then.
She plays Xuejian, and Hu Ge plays Sedum, who are typical happy enemies.
The two often quarrel like in elementary school, but the quarrel is noisy, and the sweetness is really sweet.
At that time, Yang Mi’s performance aura had not yet been smoothed out.
plays two roles, the lively and cheerful Tang Xuejian, and the quiet and gentle Xiyao, and she plays both roles well.
A pair of fox eyes, really so cool~
And Tang Yan contributed her first role in life, Zixuan.
The story line of Zixuan and Xu Changqing (played by Huo Jianhua) is the real way to unfold the sadomasochism in Three Lives Three Worlds.
Zixuan, as a descendant of Nuwa, has a certain degree of complexity in her role.
In the first life, she was a charming and innocent girl, and in the third life, she was a sexy and charming royal sister.
She transcends time, space and constraints, and is full of infatuation and yearning for her sweetheart, filled with a sense of destiny.
Liu Shishi’s Nightshade had a lot of controversy back then.
She has a personality somewhere between Xuejian and Zixuan, gentle and well-behaved.
Later, during his cultivation, his personality split, and he split into Hong Kui, who had a strong personality.
The emotional line between her and Long Yang (played by Hu Ge), in today's words, is a bit orthopedic. She waited for a thousand years in the magic sword, just to wait for Brother Wang, and it could be said that she tortured him from beginning to end.
Especially the famous scene of Nightshade sacrificing the sword . She died tragically for Brother Wang. There was endless perseverance in her eyes. How many people saw it and cried?
Looking back, we really ate too well in the past.
In a drama back then, the actors only needed one good role, and no matter how many times it was played, everyone would play the role.
Now the best part is always outside the play. For example, a meaningless position can make all kinds of jokes.
If we say that "Fairy Sword" 1 and 3 are good dramas that create stars, they are the upper limit that domestic entertainment Xianxia cannot surpass.
So today's four and six are the stars of bad dramas, and they will never be the lower limit of bad domestic entertainment dramas. The rise and fall of
Fairy Sword IP gives us a glimpse of the future of domestic entertainment: the upper limit of
’s excellent works has been capped and is no longer accessible.
There is no lower limit to what is vulgar and rotten, and it can be rotten in all kinds of ways.
