Hayao Miyazaki is truly an eternal god.
He has dedicated his life to the animation industry, healing the childhood of countless audiences, and making animation truly transgender and transgender.
Even decades later, his works are still being re-screened, and audiences who don't know how many times they have seen it will still choose to enter the theater again.
And this time, the new work "What kind of life do you want to live" is even more deserted in April, breaking out of the sky.
That's right, in this small period that everyone avoids, the box office of "What Life Do You Want to Live" flew directly, exceeding 500 million all the way.
You must know that there is also a crime movie "Grass and Trees in the World" with great publicity in the same file, as well as the Hollywood blockbuster "Godzilla vs. Kong 2".
There is still nearly a month to go to the May 1st gear, and according to this momentum, it is not a problem to break 1 billion.
I thought it would be another masterpiece of the grandmaster-level boss, but when I clicked on Douban, I was stunned.
In the past, Hayao Miyazaki's works were routine operations to break 8 points, but now the new work is only 7.7 points, of which 70,000 people scored 3 stars and below.
票房井喷，口碑断崖式下跌。
What is "What kind of life do you want to live"?
This time, let's taste a new work by Hayao Miyazaki, who is in his 80s-
Looking back at "What kind of life do you want to live", in fact, I still like it very much.
It is not difficult to see that this movie is also healing Miyazaki himself.
In the film, the protagonist Zhenren lost his mother due to a fire, and his father married his mother's sister, and later had his own children.
It all seems so tragic, but the real person reconciles with himself because of a wonderful journey.
Everyone in the animation is so kind, and the real person wants to save his stepmother back to the real world in the end, and he can not shy away from calling his aunt "mother" in the face of his mother when he was a girl.
And the mother, who has become a fire girl, is still protecting the real person and her sister.
Although it is a bit nonsensical, the expression of human warmth in the animation will really touch fans who like Miyazaki.
At the same time, the appearance of "wah-la-wah-la-la" in the animation is enough to make people's eyes shine.
I have to say that Miyazaki can always find a novel and magical innocence for the audience in this realistic and ruthless world.
When these little things appeared, the theater boiled several times, and it was really not easy to ignite the romance of adults.
"What kind of life do you want to live" is whether it is the character setting, the story direction, the picture style or the old taste.
In fact, the biggest difference is the story itself, which is not so easy to understand, and there is no talk of love in it, there is no encounter between teenagers and girls, only a superficial search for a stepmother, which makes me feel very surprised.
When everyone was questioning the real person, saying that his least favorite should be his stepmother, but the kind and brave real person still embarked on this dangerous journey without hesitation.
Even after being taken as lunch by the parrot, his first reaction turned out to be "Did you eat Xia Zi like this", this kind of purity and innocence is even more precious in the aftertaste.
In fact, during the movie, you can also see some metaphors for World War II.
For example, the man-eating parrot can only occupy this territory without fish to eat.
Of course, when everyone is full of filters for Miyazaki, he still only scored 7.7 points, which can also show that "What kind of life do you want to live" really can't attract most audiences.
I think that the most common sentence in the circle of friends of the audience after watching the movie is-
I didn't get it.
Hayao Miyazaki once said that his philosophy of creating animation:
The entrance of the animation should be low and wide so that most viewers can enjoy it, but the exit must be high.
Obviously, this is not the case with "How You Want to Live Your Life".
It is said that there is no publicity in Japan at all, and perhaps Miyazaki just wants to do what he likes.
However, there was no reminder to the audience before the domestic release, and there is no doubt that he still wants to make a wave of box office.
And the audience sat in the theater full of anticipation and watched it for two hours, which undoubtedly consumed everyone's feelings for Miyazaki.
It is true that this anime is full of metaphors, but, at the very least, the story on the surface is not clearly told.
Majin is saddened by his mother's death and feels unable to join a new family and school, and he even hurts himself to escape.
In the end, he let go of himself, but he didn't focus on what happened to him and the fire girl, or the key points in the change in his relationship with his stepmother.
There is no doubt that everyone is looking for the title of Hayao Miyazaki and the name "What kind of life do you want to live".
It turned out that the plot has nothing to do with the title of the play, and even the most basic story is explained, isn't this movie lonely.
Of course, with Miyazaki's ability, if you want to tell a story in its entirety, of course, you have to do it.
All the way to the present, it is understandable to want to make a story of your own as you like.
However, in this case, it is of course reasonable for the audience to give bad reviews because they can't understand and can't understand.
People don't have the ability to comment on Miyazaki's ability to make animations, but as a consumer, you can still express your preferences.
When I watched "What kind of life do you want to live", I actually expected that many people would not be able to get it.
There are no details in the story, and the so-called metaphor is not too clear, and the role of the father can actually be dug deeper.
Perhaps, Miyazaki doesn't care if everyone likes it or not, and he doesn't need to prove his strength with any awards, just draw what he wants.
It's just that, as a non-Miyazaki fan, he may be in jail for two hours.
epilogue
Everyone's controversy over "What kind of life do you want to live" inadvertently proved Wu Jing's words again.
Before it really became popular, he had actually said that the audience's aesthetics of the movie were getting higher and higher, and using "clichés" to deceive the audience was self-defeating.
For a master-level figure like Hayao Miyazaki, we the audience did not blindly follow the trend, but expressed our views freely, which is actually a key manifestation of cognitive improvement.
Animation is actually a kind of theme, and each theme and different directors will attract different audiences.
And "What kind of life do you want to live" is likely to be under the powerful filter of Hayao Miyazaki, and Douban only scored 7 points.
Some people think it's good-looking, and some people are boring, which is also the difference between people.
I don't know if you've watched Hayao Miyazaki's new work during this schedule? #春日生活打卡季#
