On February 20th, when Bo Guang opened the webpage to view the news, he saw two news related to "American Science Fiction Movies".

One is the rebooted sci-fi classic "The Matrix 4" exposing high-definition photos of the scene, and the fourth part re-emerges a classic picture of the second part.

The heroine Trinity rides a motorcycle to carry the unlocker and dodges the crazy drag racing on the highway.

The Matrix 4 recreates this scene, but the person she's carrying is Neo.

Due to Keanu Reeves's old age, long hair, a beard, and a blessed body, he seamlessly crossed back to "Rush 4".

Actress Kelly Anne Moss is also a lot older, the sharp appearance of the past is no longer, the key is that the figure is also blessed.

The two recreated the classic scene of that year this time, there was a kind of reunion between meat and Jack in previous years, and netizens joked that "no wonder the ship sank".

Second, the "Rise of the Apes" series has officially restarted.

Born in 2011, "Rise of the Apes", originally a prequel to the classic science fiction "Planet of the Apes" in American history, is one of fox's classic IP.

As we all know, in 2019, Disney acquired Fox Pictures.

As a result, many of Fox's film projects will be adjusted, and the sci-fi movie "Rise of the Apes" series has not escaped this result.

According to the news publicity, the director who now takes over the project, Wes Bohr, revealed. The latest version of Rise of the Apes is not a reboot, but continues to tell the story of The Rise of the Apes 3 after Caesar's death.

If I'm not mistaken, this Rise of the Apes 4 is the equivalent of an orthodox sequel.

The two news stories are independent in their own right, but if linked to 2019 Coppola, martin scorsese-led big director, the thing that scolds Marvel movies is linked.

There is still something interesting behind it, and even reflects a certain degree of decline in American cinema.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > Hollywood directors and the Marvel Cinematic Universe</h1>

In 2019, there are many things in Hollywood, but coppola, Martin Scorsese and other big directors collectively criticize Marvel, which is definitely an important one.

This event will not be reviewed in detail here.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

At the beginning, Bo Guang also wrote a detailed post analysis, to the effect that Marvel's industrial assembly line universe seriously squeezed the author-oriented commercial films.

Because coppola, Martin Scorsese and other hollywood top big directors.

Their films are highly artistic and at the same time commercial.

If you say Coppola's The Godfather series is artistic, Martin Scorsese's Gangsters of New York, Infernal Walkers, The Forbidden, Hugo, The Wolf of Wall Street, and so on.

You don't have anything to say!

The emergence of the Marvel Cinematic Universe completely broke this pattern.

Marvel makes a single superhero movie and then puts a bunch of superheroes together.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

Marvel Cinema solves the commercial dilemma of the previous Hollywood film series, "unsustainable after the trilogy", and builds a premier cinematic universe. Filmmakers all over the world are learning Marvel, seriously squeezing the living space of the author's films.

If we talk about the essence of Marvel movies, it is an industrial movie with an incomparably complete structure.

Of course, the Marvel Cinematic Universe meets the entertainment needs of many audiences, but the art of deeply investigating the film is really not too high, which is the fundamental reason why big directors such as Martin Scorsese criticize the Marvel Universe.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > post-2010 American science fiction film</h1>

After 2010, from the analysis of American science fiction films alone, there are indeed certain problems.

Before 2010, the Marvel Universe succeeded (Iron Man was born in 2008, but the Marvel Universe took shape after 2010).

In the past, American science fiction series movies, if you don't count the "hard is very hard, soft is very soft" 5060s.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

Take, for example, 1968's 2001: A Space Odyssey.

In 1977, George Lucas's Star Wars ushered in the era of American commercial blockbusters.

Later "Back to the Future" series, "Alien" series, "Jurassic Park" series, "Terminator" series and so on.

1980s and 1990s

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

Even between 2000 and 2010, the "Matrix" series was born at the cross-century threshold.

These 30 years of American science fiction films are also extremely artistic, science fiction genre excavation and expansion, and commercial elements of both author films, and the trilogy model is quite common.

After 2010, American science fiction movies were roughly divided into four situations.

1, the classic restart, the sequel extended, but the market performance is not good

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

The most typical of this is Ridley Scott's "Prometheus", "Alien Contract".

In 2019, James Cameron supervised "Terminator 6" and so on.

You say that the former director is older and has passed through the peak period, and the latter is not a Cameron director.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

These big directors are definitely not bad films, but compared with the "film history classics" in history. These rebooted films are far inferior to the previous ones in terms of word-of-mouth, quality, and market feedback.

2, another stove, the finished product is limited, the sequel is difficult to see

This is most typical of Cameron's "Alita"

Ang Lee's "Twin Killers", Peter Jackson's "Predator City", etc., Tom Tikwe, Wachowski's "Cloud Atlas" and so on.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

This one is very similar to the previous one, these top directors not only stir up emotional cold rice, but also dig a new direction for science fiction movies.

But for some reason, the result is incomparably similar to the previous one. It is not a bad film, but compared with the "film history classics" in front of them, the quality of word of mouth is not too good.

The most important thing is to lose money in the market, which makes it difficult for the birth of the film sequel.

3, the rising star, create brilliant again, but there is no sequel

After 2010, if you want to look for American science fiction movies with high reputation, high quality, and market feedback are quite good.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

Christopher Nolan's Inception, Interstellar

Gravity directed by Alfonso Cuarón

Others include Edge of Tomorrow, Advent and Ready Player One, Star Rescue and many more.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

After 2010, these American science fiction movies were good in every way. Word of mouth, quality, feedback from the market (box office) and so on.

But if you think about it, these sci-fi movies don't have a sequel at least for now!

4, the genre series, Marvel dominates the screen, the author of the movie is difficult to appear

According to the above three, the final result below is finally obtained.

Yes, after 2010, the American science fiction series of movies, we all know that it is the world of the Marvel Cinematic Universe.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

Even if it is not the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it is basically a series of "superheroes" around it, or a variety of "cinematic universes" that begin to dominate the screen.

In the end, there is an obvious result.

The reputation of the science fiction movie that started the stove is not good, and the market is not successful anyway.

Exploring the science fiction genre of science fiction movies, the sequel that almost died in all aspects, but there was no sequel that was better in all aspects.

Finally word of mouth. Quality, market box office, a series of movies that are very popular with audiences. If it's not the Marvel Cinematic Universe, it's all sorts of superhero series movies.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

After 2010, the Trinity science fiction series of movies was only found out of the "Rise of the Apes" trilogy.

Note: Disney's rebooted Star Wars Sequel trilogy, the teen-oriented "Hunger Games" series, and the "Jurassic Park" series, they can't always be said to be science fiction classics.

Even the "Rise of the Apes" series, plus the next three series of movies.

Compared with the 70s, 80s, 90s, even in the decade from 2000 to 2010, these classic science fiction series of film history, the gap is really not a star and a half.

<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" > the Marvel Cinematic Universe and the American Sci-Fi Movie Dilemma</h1>

We all know that the success behind the Marvel Universe is not only Marvel itself, but also disney companies.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

Disney because of the Star Wars series, plus the Marvel Cinematic Universe. It turned out to be very successful, and after 2010 to today, it is more and more successful, becoming a big Mac.

Disney has had great success, one of which is to "squeeze dry" each classic IP on the surplus value.

Disney's phenomenon of "squeezing out" the surplus value of classic IP is very serious, and the Star Wars Sequel trilogy is like this. Although the market performance (especially in Europe and the United States) is very good, the controversy over the quality of word-of-mouth is getting bigger and bigger.

The Star Wars Postquel trilogy has been launched, and Disney won't give up on this cash cow.

Disney's strategy is certainly controversial, but it is not very successful in the market, and other Hollywood studios are learning from it.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

Therefore, in recent years, Hollywood film companies have restarted many classic IPs in order to engage in the "movie universe", and most of them are not very successful like Chinese remakes.

It's just that the film industry is strong, and film and television dramas are indeed much better.

"The Matrix 4" is the work that was born in this situation.

Let's take a quick look at the two directors from brothers to sisters, and the lead actors Keanu Reeves are both old. At the same time, there will definitely be new people joining and joining the new storyline.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

The good result is to reach the state of Terminator 6 and Prometheus.

The bad result is naturally that like the Star Wars Sequel trilogy, the market performance is good, but it is too far away from the original trilogy.

It is not impossible for "The Matrix 4" to reach the level of the classic trilogy, but after so many years of rebooting and remaking, the probability is really quite low.

The reason is that many classic series of movies have no need to make a sequel or restart at all.

The characters and story of the original trilogy are very complete, and it is necessary to shoot a reboot that has nothing to do with the previous trilogy, or is similar to the current one, but it has to break the reboot of the old version.

In the end, it will cause both sides to be unflattered.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

After 2010, the only sci-fi series that can be played, the "Rise of the Apes" trilogy, was born.

With Disney's acquisition of Fox, it is now officially announcing the birth of a sequel to Rise of the Apes, thus declaring a complete end.

Finally, the current American film does not yet have a complete decline, after all, the American film and television industry, elite talents, classic accumulation are the strongest in the world, and it is no problem to last for many years.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

But compared to the Pre-2010 American Series.

Now american series of movies for classic IP sequels, sequels, reboots, remakes are indeed more and more common.

Escorted by the strong film industry in the United States, elite talents, and the cultural soft power behind it, such a remake can indeed circle a wave of emotional box office around the world.

But for genre films, it squeezes out the living space of the author's films.

Even for those classic series of movies, this kind of sequel restarted for profit has a certain harm to the classic.

"No tiger in the mountains, monkeys call the king" science fiction "Rise of the Apes Ball", Disney also restarted the Hollywood director and marvel cinematic universe after 2010 Of American science fiction movie Marvel Cinematic Universe and American science fiction film dilemma

This kind of situation of classic damage is not welcomed by many people who like the original.

For example, Robert Zemeckis, the director of the "Back to the Future" series, is such a person.

In 2015, when it was the 30th anniversary of the release of "Back to the Future", with the restart of a classic IP, some media asked him when "Back to the Future" would restart.

Robert Zemeckis replied simply and domineeringly:

"Absolutely not! Unless Bob Gale (one of the writers) and I are both dead! ”
