Who is to blame for the decline of kung fu films?
Many viewers have a strange feeling when watching the current TV drama works. That is, there are many kinds of films on the market, but it is very difficult to make a real kung fu film! Even in some super-expensive Xian Xia dramas, there are very few actors who can pick up the beams. As Wu Jing said,
Some small fresh meats play swords like fire sticks.
Some stars simply can't even get on their own, and find a few stand-ins to be hastily done. As a result, there are fewer and fewer actors and screenwriters in the circle who can really make good dramas, and actors rarely challenge similar dangerous scenes! Some people think that this is all because the kung fu stars in the circle have already broken the generation, and there is basically nothing that can be compared with the old actors of the previous generation. Is this really the case? Where did the actors who were able to take over go?
First of all, I have to admit that the actors who really practice martial arts in the entertainment industry can be said to be basically nothing. With the progress of the times, most parents will not be willing to spoil their own treasures. Send it to the master to practice kung fu, after all, this is very easy to get hurt. And there are many actors in the circle who are not even from the class, and they can directly transform into a play with a certain reputation. Just like many draft love beans, obviously the stage is more suitable for them, but in order to transform or move closer to the film and television drama, it is even more difficult to challenge martial arts films.
Second, in the memory of many people, the last kung fu star in the circle who can take over Jackie Chan and Jet Li should be Shi Xiaolong, who is also the youngest of all the memorable kung fu stars. But in fact, Shi Xiaolong has rarely taken on the role in the circle now, and as he gets older, he can't challenge some difficult actions in front of the screen like Jackie Chan and Jet Li, so that the people who can really take over this stall basically disappear. The third can be seen from the practices of some kung fu stars that year
It is very normal that there is no successor in the entertainment industry, such as Jackie Chan and Hong Jinbao have set up their own teams after becoming famous, but unfortunately, these stars they have cultivated are relatively similar to their ages, that is to say, when Jackie Chan and Hong Jinbao's generation grows old, the dragon and tiger martial artists they cultivate will slowly become old, so that they basically do not have any competitiveness in the circle, let alone compete with those famous and beautiful small fresh meat.
The market in the fourth circle is destined to be very limited in the development of martial arts films, and the reason why those martial arts film actors can be so famous in the first place is because they are using their lives to show people difficult shots. It's like Jackie Chan's stunt dangerous kung fu movie!
But now there are many shots can be replaced by acquired high-tech means, so that actors and producers will not let the stars risk at all, less and less realism, the box office of the film is naturally less and less, but at the same time the director will also choose to adjust the proportion of their investment according to the market, and over time a vicious circle has been formed, there is no successor in the circle, and the director and producer can not find a good actor, the industry will naturally slowly fall.
