The live-action version of "Chess Soul" is over, and the youth of the playwright is over again.
Shortly after its launch, the owner said that the show was going to explode, and the resulting rating soared from 7.2 at the beginning to 8.4 at the end.
To tell the truth, the owner of the play did not dare to continue watching half of it.
Because when I was watching comics, the owner of the drama was tortured to death by Zuowei's departure, and seeing that the drama version was so exquisite, the owner was really afraid of dehydration.
Unexpectedly, the water accumulated without watching it evaporated in another "ghost movie".
"Evil Force", after 15 years of broadcasting, finally drew a rest.
This wave of critical hits caught the drama owner off guard.
01
"Evil Force", also known as "evil ghosts and evil spirits", the owner of the play is always called "brother noble evil spirit", in case the following is wrong, you have the right not to see.
The original name of the play was "Supernatural", the literal translation is "supernatural", the abbreviation is generally called SPN, commonly known as "double skin milk".
But the name "evil force" is actually more accurate, because most of the supernatural forces that appear in the play are evil.
What vampires, demons, undead, dragons, evil gods...
Even angels don't have a few good things.
In this world where demons dance wildly, evil reigns, and faces destruction at every turn,
There are only two mortals that human beings can rely on—
The Winchester Brothers.
Brother Dean, a beautiful and kind hearted person, has footprints all over the American motels, likes food, and how to eat is not fat.
The younger brother, Sam, is both talented and good-looking, attends Stanford University, has a delicate mind, and is more than one meter nine tall.
Those supernatural beings who destroy the world and eat people and do not spit bones, as soon as they hear that the brothers are coming, they are immediately frightened and urinate.
Because the profession of the two is an exorcism hunter, they are nicknamed Wen Jia Shuangxu.
Their story begins as a child.
When his brother Sam was a baby, suddenly one night there was a fire in the house and his mother died in the fire.
Ordinary people may think of this incident as an ordinary accident, but Wen Dad did not.
Because he saw with his own eyes the scene of his wife's death.
Ordinary people have seen such supernatural phenomena, and they are not scared into madness, even if they are tough men.
Wen Dad, on the other hand, is a tougher man than a tough guy, and he directly takes his two children and begins a career as an exorcist, vowing to find out the truth about his wife's death.
Since childhood, the two children have followed each other to the north and south, god blocks the killing of god, and the ghost blocks the ghost.
At a young age, they are proficient in all kinds of occult knowledge, full of wilderness survival skills, superb document forgery skills, proficient in all kinds of hot and cold weapons, and strong enough to make the former special forces a child.
This life lasted for a long time, but neither the brother nor the father noticed that the younger brother, who had never been with his mother in his life, was an emotionally delicate person, and he was increasingly uncomfortable with such a life.
At the age of 18, he chose to say goodbye to the life of an exorcist hunter and began to enjoy an ordinary life at Stanford University, going to school, joining clubs, making girlfriends...
Until one day, his long-lost brother Dean suddenly came to the door and told him that his father was missing.
The experienced father will not disappear for no reason, he will either find a clue or run into big trouble.
Because there were too many bad memories in childhood, the younger brother has always been very resistant to his father's affairs, but he can't help the drive of blood and affection, or decided to help his brother.
The two solve a mysterious incident, and the younger brother plans to return to ordinary life, but at this time, the girlfriend dies.
She died in exactly the same way as her mother.
The angry brother knows that he has fallen into the clutches of fate, so the two brothers once again form a group on the road, while searching for their father, while protecting and saving innocent victims from the threat of evil forces.
This time, it is turned upside down.
02
Where is this show good?
Since it is produced by CW, if nothing else, a good-looking leather bag is indispensable.
The appearance of the brothers is already against the sky, and at least one beautiful woman in each episode is a routine operation.
Some people say that when every hollywood crew chooses a female lead, they will first come to SPN to sweep it.
In the first episode alone, there are the imitation birds that later shined in "Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.", and the sledgehammer that was red and half the sky in "Suspect Tracking".
The owner of the drama is thinking that the top stream CP of the Ji circle is still a root sister, and the third episode is coming...
The level of actors is in place, and the story is... Not bad.
Ok means that the advantages and disadvantages are obvious.
The advantage is that the plot is very wide in scope, the vampire werewolf and everything is a basic operation, and the hunting range of the Wen brothers almost includes fairy tales and folklore from all over the world.
On this basis, there are also interesting deconstructions of some stories.
For example, the traditional positive character of the lamp god is transformed into an evil creature that eats people in the story. They do not fulfill the wish of the wisher, but let the wisher fall into the dream of wish fulfillment and eat them in the dream.
Most of the plots outside the main line are unit dramas, and the story structure of each episode is relatively complete. There are speculations, there are reversals, and although there is often dog blood, the dog is very fragrant.
Occasionally, the screenwriters also play a lot of bold memes. For example, in one episode, the brothers actually crossed into the real world, the two became the actors themselves, and the brothers' lives were actually a drama!
It's also mixed with sharp self-deprecation...
03
After talking about the advantages, it is time to talk about the disadvantages.
In addition to the brain hole is large enough, SPN's most famous slot point is poor.
What a poor lawyer?
As I said just now, there are countless chaotic mythological creatures in this play.
But most of these guys appear as human beings!
The most typical episode is in the 19th episode of Season 5.
In this episode, Odin of Norse mythology, Kari, the god of destruction of Hindu mythology, Mercury of Roman mythology, Vesta of China, and so on, all appear...
On this card:
Although it is often complained that it is a poor crew, SPN is not really so short of money.
However, the screenwriter's brain hole is too big, and he really wants to shoot every big scene, even if the budget of "Game of Thrones" is not enough to spend.
However, there must be gains, and within the framework of a limited budget, the screenwriters racked their brains and used various interesting ideas to make the plot interesting.
For the audience, this is also a blessing in disguise.
Fresh and heavy themes, eye-catching actors, twists and turns of the story... These are all necessary qualities for the next meal drama.
"Forces of Evil" is CW's longest-lived ace series and the longest-running one with the highest ratings.
CW focuses on youth dramas, in addition to SPN, the most familiar to domestic audiences are "Vampire Diaries", "Gossip Girl", and in recent years, "The Flash" and other DC super British dramas.
The production is low-cost, the actors are good-looking, and the story always revolves around the love-hate entanglement between several leading actors...
CW dramas, mostly this flavor.
Compared with these works, SPN can be said to be more than the degree of dog blood, but the theme of the story is unique.
SPN has been the number one masterpiece of the Rot Circle for many years and is popular with BL enthusiasts, but this is certainly not the original intention of the creators.
This is not talking about love, because there is no heroine in the whole drama.
This is not about friendship, because the focus of the whole play is always around the brothers.
This is not talking about family affection, because the feelings between the brothers are far more than the general blood affection.
Dean could die for Sam, not because Sam was his brother, but because Sam was Sam.
vice versa.
In the view of the playwright, SPN is about bondage.
And this bond is beyond blood, gender, and even species.
This bond is not logical, and the relationship between each character and others changes with the passage of time and constant tests.
Some of the bonds are gone, and some are stronger and deeper, so deep that it is impossible to define the feeling.
If we can bond with at least one person in our lifetime, even if it means the possibility of going through tribulations, who can say that this is not a fortunate thing?
