domestic film and television drama, Kunai has been writing original scripts for a long time!
When film and television creators were at the end of their rope and unable to innovate, they found a "shortcut" -
remake.
However, there are also differences in remakes. The former creators of
worked hard to record classic masterpieces in images and give them new vitality, such as the 86 version of " Journey to the West ", Li Xuejian's version of " Water Margin ", etc.
But most of today’s creators just want to make quick money. Under the banner of classics, they randomly find a few popular stars and piece them together into a new drama. The biggest victim of the
remake is Jin Yong fans.
The martial arts memory that accompanies a generation to grow up. After several editions, it finally became " Tian Long Ba Bu " with a score of 3.4, " The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer " with a score of 5.9, and " The Legend of the Condor Heroes " with a score of 5.8. and " The Deer and the Cauldron " with a score of 3.3.
Now, there is another movie - "A Dream of Red Mansions: A Good Match".
After watching the trailer, the audience's hearts were completely hung.
The plot is brainless, and the main creator is persuaded to quit.
You can tell by looking at the name that this movie is adapted from "A Dream of Red Mansions", one of the four classics.
The original work with more than 730,000 words condensed into a 115-minute movie has made the audience vaguely worried. The 58-second trailer seems to have four words -
is not changed, it is made up.
"What about the Lin family's money?"
"Why not use it to build a garden?"
When this dialogue appeared in the trailer, many viewers could not sit still.
There is no doubt that Lin Daiyu brought a lot of money to the Jia family, but the original work did not explain this at all, nor did it explain where the family property went.
In other words, "Jia Tun Lin Cai" is just an understanding of the readers. Each reader can have his own understanding, while the screenwriter imposes his own ideas on the audience.
But film and television works must be objective. From this point on, "A Dream of Red Mansions" has lost many viewers.
Putting aside whether this understanding is correct or not, the reason why "Dream of Red Mansions" is a masterpiece lies in his Spring and Autumn writing style. The author's obscure expressions are like solving a puzzle. If someone directly reveals the answer, what else is there to see?
This trailer is the extent to which the creator wants to apologize to Cao Xueqin.
Looking at the list of main creators of the show, I just want to ask, who gave you the courage to destroy the Dream of Red Mansions?
director Hu Mei has directed such well-known works as "Yongzheng Dynasty" and "Qiao Family Courtyard", and has created ratings climaxes one after another.
However, her creative ideas are a bit backward for today's audience.
Starting from " Confucius ", Hu Mei's works for more than ten years are almost all works with reputations hovering around the passing line such as "Cao Cao", "River East" and "Enter the Capital".
Screenwriter He Yanjiang is best known as one of the screenwriting team members of "Confucius" with a rating of 5.6. They adapted "A Dream of Red Mansions", which really made the audience uneasy.
Not destroying the original work is already the audience's biggest expectation for them. Now it seems that this expectation cannot be fulfilled.
The casting is shocking, and the audience can debate whether the plot of "plastic face surgery" is right or wrong
, but after seeing these actors in the film, the audience's thoughts are surprisingly consistent, and some people commented like this -
The casting image It's rolled out with a dice.
87 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is irreplaceable in the hearts of the audience. It is difficult for a remake to surpass the casting of the classic, but it cannot be so different from the classic.
Let’s talk about them one by one.
Lin Daiyu is played by Zhang Miaoyi.
The original work describes Daiyu like this:
"Two curved brows that look like frowning but not frowning, and a pair of eyes that look like joy but not happiness. Her expression is full of sorrow, and she is delicate and sick. There are little tears, and she is panting slightly. . Quietness is like a beautiful flower shining on the water, and action is like a weak willow supporting the wind.The heart is one more orifice than the stems, and the disease is like Xizi, which is three points better. "
But Zhang Miaoyi looks like this:
Small eyes and a small nose have nothing to do with the image of Lin Daiyu. Lin Daiyu in Cao Xueqin's works is extremely smart and has a strong understanding. Zhang Miaoyi has a face of a scumbag.
Although Lin Daiyu is frail and sentimental, she is She is very arrogant at heart, and Zhang Miaoyi does not have the energy to play Lin Daiyu at all.
Her expression was ferocious when grabbing things, and she exerted all her strength. She did not look sick, and her face only appeared in the camera. Bitterness.
Is this the actor selected by the director from 20,000 people?
The actor who plays Jia Yuanchun, Guan Xiaotong .
Jia Yuanchun’s life and death sorrows affect the fate of the Jia family, Rongning and Ning, and also promote the development of the entire story. .
As the head of the "Four Spring", she has received traditional etiquette education in poetry and calligraphy since she was a child. "She is full of poetry and calligraphy, and has outstanding virtues" to best describe her.
But the director gave this role to Guan Xiaotong.
Most of the characters she has portrayed on the screen in the past were unruly and willful rebellious girls, and her appearance is not consistent with Jia Yuanchun's steady temperament.
Looking at the clips in the trailer, Guan Xiaotong can't stand up to the virtuous concubine at all. In the scene, she looks like a child wearing adult clothes.
Some netizens commented that she is "the younger sister entering the palace" and it is not unreasonable.
Jia Baoyu is played by Bian Cheng.
Bian Cheng has a delicate appearance and a slightly childish face. It fits Jia Baoyu's image quite well.
However, his acting skills are a bit worrying.
Although Jia Baoyu is rebellious by nature and does not like to read, he comes from a wealthy family and still understands basic rules and etiquette. Bian Cheng in the trailer He ran a few steps like a silly son of a landlord.
If Jia Baoyu had such an image, I don't believe there would be so many girls admiring him.
There is also Wang Xifeng, She has a very distinctive personality, "all kinds of spicy", and the director Using "modern aesthetics", I found the appearance that best fits the definition of "spicy" -
plastic surgery face.
The face is full of silicone, and the face is as swollen as a steamed bun. No wonder the new trailer does not include Dare to give a full-face shot.
As well as Qin Keqing, who is "slender and delicate in nature, gentle and gentle in behavior" in the original work, in the trailer she looks like this -
has a rouge and cheesy pink air.
In addition, every casting choice of Xue Baochai, who is slender, and Grandma Liu, who is well-fed, is very shocking. From the casting, it is clear that the creator's understanding of the characters is very biased.
Conclusion:
Stop it, Hu Mei! Stop humiliating the audience's IQ. Most films of this caliber have a hard time surfing the Internet. If you want to cut leeks in theaters, you are really treating the audience as a fool.
Ever since the filming of "A Dream of Red Mansions" began, there have been controversies surrounding the casting and script. Now that the trailer has been released, the audience doesn't know where to start if they want to complain.
In the face of the audience's controversy, director Hu Mei also responded -
believes that after the audience watches the movie, all the controversy will be settled.
The scene layout and character modeling are shoddy. Ancient puppet and online dramas look more thoughtful than this. Remaking a classic is not to ruin a classic. The trailer alone is so bad that I don’t have any expectations for the feature film.
just hopes that someone will actually watch this movie.
