When the classic film and television drama exploded, it was inevitable that some imitators of Dongshi imitated it, and some producers took a fancy to the flow of the film, so they did not leave the bottom line for remake imitation, used clumsy shooting methods, selected inappropriate actors, and the scene set was coarse and rotten, which really couldn't be put on the stage.
Although there are some good films that have been successfully remade, they only account for 20% of the overall proportion
There are very few films that can be successfully remade, and it is really embarrassing that those shoddy films and television films are circulating in the market.
The remake of "Half Life" made the two excellent actresses the focus of the entertainment industry, and also made the two lose face.
The director directly changed the name of "Half Life" to "The Origin of Love", which has a tendency to cover up and steal the bell.
In the play, Carina Lau and Jiang Xin played Gu Manlu and Gu Manzhen respectively, but the audience complained that one was too old and the other was too strong.
Carina Lau was in her early fifties when she acted in this work, and she wanted to play a young and prosperous woman in the play, with a double ponytail and a coquettish expression in the play, which was very different from her usual image, and did not fit the role, but was a bit of a play.
And Jiang Xin's acting skills have been verified in "The Legend of Zhen Huan", which is completely spicy and sweet
But in this drama, it is overshadowed, first of all, we must start with Jiang Xin's height ratio, tall and tall, with small head and wide shoulders, but after wearing a casual sweater in the play, she looks very strong, and she does not match the delicate beauty.
can't help but remind fans of the original book The heroines of the old version of "Half Life" Lin Xinru and Jiang Qinqin, as well as the movie version of Wu Qianlian and Anita Mui, the performances of these four people made the latter unreachable.
After the day's version of "Late Night Canteen" received good ratings, the Chinese version of "Late Night Canteen" also began to follow suit, starring Huang Lei, a teacher who loves to cook, but after the drama was broadcast, it received a low score of 2.9 on Douban.
Later, many netizens analyzed the reasons, one is that the dramatic level is not deep enough, and the other is not in line with the market.
Most of the customers of the Japanese version are marginalized people in society, each with their own stories, opinions and helplessness about life, and they gather in the small restaurant to get a moment of peace and warmth.
And the Chinese version of the customers are like being beaten with chicken blood, full of passion, and it seems that there will be no internal friction at all.
There are all kinds of soft, hard, and wide in the play, which not only affects the viewing effect, but also loses the original meaning of this film.
In fact, some films do not have to be remade, those foreign popular films and television may not be suitable for the Chinese market, and our own food culture has a long history, which is more suitable for telling the story, like the director of "A Bite of China", who talks about each food in detail in easy-to-understand lens language, which is more flavorful.
The work "Marrying the Right Man in the Wrong Sedan Chair" made Huang Yi and Xiao Li Lin "eat" until now, and the excellent works are still excellent no matter when they go, this film and television drama produced in 2001 has too many outstanding places, from props and costumes to character casting, or line skills are in place.
Huang Yi and Xiao Li Lin are two actresses, one is heroic and the other is soft, and the beauty of the two has their own merits, regardless of whether they are up or down, which can show that the director's casting vision is very "vicious"
The male protagonists Nie Yuan and Sha Yi, Sha Yi was forced to lose weight by the director in order to choose the role, and in the end, both of them got their wish to play the leading role.
And the remake of "Good Flowers and Full Moon" is also a plot that changes the soup but not the medicine, some netizens commented that the new version of Li Yuhu and Sha Pingwei is good, and Du Bingyan's expression is not properly managed, more like a villain, but it is still unsatisfactory.
And the props group is also funny, and Cupid even appeared on the sign of greeting relatives, which is a bit illogical.
In fact, it's not that the remake is bad, but once it is determined that the director wants to remake, he must grasp the actors' acting skills and props, and make it as perfect as possible, otherwise it will be useless.
"Liang Shanbo and Zhu Yingtai" has been remade countless times, but the new biography has been complained about.
Classic works will only be favored by the audience if they are refined and refined, and with the rise of the audience's aesthetic level and the tribute to the classics, it is difficult for remakes to become popular.
And the new version of Liang Zhu made a big taboo and acted history as a romance drama
The new version of Ma Wencai seems to be a love saint, and his language and actions are too stiff, these are put in mannerisms and actions in romance dramas to give way to love, but as a historical drama, there is less flavor
And Tsui Hark's version of "Liang Zhu" shows the class gap vividly
"The scholars want to win each other over, so the marriage pays attention to the right door, Zhu Men to Zhu Door, Bamboo Gate to Bamboo Gate"
Although Ma Wencai's sense of existence is very low from beginning to end, he is everywhere, and Ma Wencai represents the shackles of feudal marriage
Liang Xiaoice's version of "Liang Zhu" also shows the recklessness of the ancient chaebol Gongzi
Similarly, Dong Jie's version of "Liang Zhu" has a number of male gods and goddesses joining, which feasts the audience's eyes, and the costumes and props are also practical, and will not dominate and suppress the aura of the actors.
In the film, Liang Shanbo's forbearance, hard work, and emotion, the detailed and interesting story description, the natural transition from comedy to tragedy, and the small stories make the whole drama more substantial, this version of Liang Zhu's remake is undoubtedly a success.
Compared with the new works, the class conflict is weakened, and the romance is higher than the times, blurring the key points, and not being profound enough.
Cao Xueqin's "Dream of Red Mansions", as one of the four famous novels, has both history and appreciation, and the old version of Red Mansion left too deep an impression on the audience and was almost difficult to surpass, but in such a situation, some directors still chose to remake it, and the result can be imagined and unsatisfactory.
First of all, from the casting point of view, the 87 version of Dream of Red Mansions is more attentive in casting, whether it is the master or the maid role, each one is very outstanding, and the demeanor and action of the characters are quite elegant.
The 2010 version of "Dream of Red Mansions" is slightly deficient in casting, Lin Daiyu played by Jiang Mengjie has a white face and a sense of weakness without a lack of foundation, and a pair of big eyes are slightly sluggish and not expressive enough.
Moreover, the styling and hair accessories of the actors in the play are not exquisite enough, there is a sense of immediacy of the assembly line, the costumes are pure colors, red and green, and the clothes are wide and have a funny sense of singing on stage.
The actors' performances are also too deliberate and unnatural, which is also a big failure of the work.
The shaping of the characters is inseparable from the performance of the actors, and naturalness and relaxation are the goals pursued by the performance.
But in this "Dream of Red Mansions", I only saw the actors' blunt performance habits, which was not natural enough.
The old version of the Red Mansion Daiyu Xiang Yu died tear-jerking, and it was thrillingly beautiful.
The death of Daiyu in the new version of Red Mansion is comparable to a ghost movie, with the gloomy background music and white veil blocking the body, this picture is not only not beautiful enough, but also reverie.
A good actor is inseparable from Bole, if the acting skills and Bole are not encountered, then the effect of the shooting will be greatly reduced, and the result will be unsatisfactory.
There are many examples of remakes of classic dramas like this, but there are very few out of the circle, and in most cases, they will be crushed by the classics, or they are too bad to get out of the circle.
reminds me of what Mr. Chen Daoming said, 1.5 billion people can make up the stories of 3 billion people, and they keep remaking and remaking because of insufficient imagination.
Classic works originally have the protection of the audience, and they have a guarantee themselves, so the repeated remake creation will naturally not lack the audience.
At present, excellent works will be selected by the audience's eyes as soon as they appear, and those remakes of works can be successfully out of the circle in addition to a certain degree of popularity, I have to say that the creativity of the producers should really be raised.
