"Movies under the stars".
At one point it was a façade.
Now, how particularly sarcastic.
Recently, another domestic drama, just started broadcasting, was called to return.
cause?
- "Ugly".
Who is it?
Sir didn't expect it—Zhou Dongyu.
A few days ago, also poisoned rice was not served:
How is Zhou Dongyu ugly?
Why doesn't Zhou Dongyu deserve to act in xian xia dramas?
"Hawthorn Tree" when Zhou Dongyu was ridiculed, and now it is still.
Sir, who rarely watches fairy tale dramas, is also interested in this time.
After reading it, Sir was also confused.
It's not that the show is so advanced.
Rather, has it reached the point of being ridiculed by the crowd, or have we fallen into the "aesthetic hegemony of xianxia drama"?
It's time to retry the first instance —"
Dust through the ages
01
As soon as the opening chapter, Zhou Dongyu was complained about and the Xian Xia drama was not satisfied.
Simply put, it is "ugly".
Specifically:
Lost the heroine's share.
In the play, she is in the same frame as Tsukimi, who plays "Yakuza", "Yakuza is like Miss, Miss is like Yakuza".
I have to say that under the costume filter, Zhou Dongyu is at a disadvantage everywhere -
Small facial features, not enough for everyone to show off;
Short in height, the status also looks half a head lower than others;
The expression is flexible and joyful, which does not meet the mainstream expectations of "high cold" and "dignified".
All these looks and feels superimposed on top of each other, like what?
Isn't it like a companion?
△ Peony Pavilion
Even if it is a single still, Zhou Dongyu's fluttering temperament is always owed a few points.
No way, hardware.
Born with a sharp face, instead of containing a sentimental pulse, it is a little provocative.
She is not immortal enough, too grounded, like a small flower in the field that enjoys itself.
Whether you can handle a role well, Zhou Dongyu's acting skills have other public opinions, but if she stares directly at the screen to tell you: I am a big fairy.
That doesn't have to be...
So, in the final analysis, is Zhou Dongyu "ugly"?
No.
It's just that she doesn't look like the unified formula of the Xian Xia drama.
But sorry.
Unity has never been Zhou Dongyu's strength, and her brilliance comes from the personality of the side.
The "image-destroying" style killing Matt performance in "Heart Flower Road Release".
The sentence "Just like you, you still say that you killed Matt?" ", in an instant, the soul was soiled.
"July and Ansheng", she always dared to cry and laugh.
No restraints or baggage.
"Young You", before the release of the film, was first questioned and Yi Qianxi's age gap was too large, "playing a young middle school student".
But she appeared in the camera, shaved her head, and still made you cry a handful of snot and tears.
However, Zhou Dongyu's aura was changeable, and it was all forbidden in the Xian Xia drama.
Because for a large extent.
What we ask for is that —
Put an end to complexity, put an end to the real.
They usually have ice muscles and bones, do not eat human fireworks, and do not have the slightest worldly desire.
I hope that every frame of the shot is cut out, it is a noble and cold flat hard photo.
The transition between emotions and emotions becomes redundant.
Have you ever seen a fairy like this—
This is "two girlfriends shopping".
A second ago, he put on the tone of "His Highness" to reassure his companions that he would not run into trouble.
The next second, his eyes narrowed into a slit, smiling and squinting to see if there was any unexpected situation.
She is mischievous and spontaneous.
A second ago, he said to his girlfriend, "You have moved your heart, I will arrange it for you." ”
Really helpful?
The next second it's like a fart, grinning silly, just to make fun of each other.
Immortals, there are also girlfriends.
In the contrast, the characters just stand:
A little silly, a little embarrassed, brutal and not willful, smart and emotional.
Who says immortals have no friends?
There is no traditional idol fantasy drama with obvious emotions and exaggerated expressions, but small actions, small expressions, flexible and unrestrained.
Interestingly, in the back, an inattentive ran into trouble.
The fairy shelf on his mouth was reimbursed in situ, and he was overwhelmed.
Compared with the original work, the TV series has indeed made a reborn adaptation.
The "first beauty of the Three Realms" in the mouth of the book fans, a paragraph of open face, is written like this -
The quaint Xuanqing robe brushed across the ground, the long hair pulled up with ink hairpins quietly hung down to the waist, the silver brocade belt refracted brilliant streamers in the sunlight with the footsteps of the people who came, and the ink-colored eyes seemed to be caught in the eternal past. The indescribable honor and elegance can make people completely ignore the very ordinary appearance on her face, and there is even a sense of simplicity in the back of the Ikegami God that breaks through the sky of time...
There's not an adjective that sticks to popularity...
Behind the "hard landing" of these several powerful actors starring in idol dramas and fantasy dramas, their commonality has long exposed the real problems -
The "standard of immortals" is dead and hard.
Don't say that domestic dramas are superficial, hollywood is also the same.
As soon as Queen Kate appeared, who couldn't praise the high-class?
In a word, the first thing you have to see is beauty.
And this is zhou Dongyu's skill blind spot.
If I were to play a traditional beauty in costume
I can't act
So is it inevitable that Zhou Dongyu's starring in "Ancient Dust" must be a mistake?
Don't worry.
Zhou Dongyu has never won the first glance.
She won by "looking at it more than ever".
02
The first thing to say is this.
The so-called does not conform to the original work, nor is it true.
Is "grassroots" Zhou Dongyu embarrassed?
The 14 episodes that are currently unfolding are about the Chaos Raid before the beginning of the original novel, and were originally the foreword to the story.
"The four true gods of the Ancients, the Burning Sun, the Apocalypse, and the White Seal protect the Three Realms, and the gods are destroyed, and they are reduced to nothingness together with the ancestral gods."
What the TV series completes is the growth process of the true god Shanggu played by Zhou Dongyu, from the "little princess" with weak spiritual power to the main goddess of the Three Realms.
That is to say, the current naughtiness, do not know the weight.
It's just the most initial stage.
Just like if you want to train a mighty water arrow turtle, you have to start with a jani turtle.
The routine after "Ancient Dust" is indeed not new, and the two lines of Xiu Xian love are intertwined——
Worship teachers, learn art, know the life of the heavens, and protect the world.
Acquaintance, companionship, life and death, life and death, lifelong.
The plot of the 10 episodes in front of you is exactly like this.
From the princess of the diao, to the burden of the world.
So is it really a problem to get the immortals back to the ground?
As a fairy love drama, "Ancient Dust" itself is not very conventional.
Like a fairy, but not a fairy.
The bright line is the divine realm that is high above and governs the peace of the three realms; the dark line is the divine realm and the gods, all of which are pawns in dealing with the upcoming "chaos catastrophe".
Not very grounded.
But on the contrary, there is that one "love" word.
On the contrary, it has achieved the most humane side under the appearance of the fairy drama.
The current popular character, the ancient girlfriend, Tsukimi (Played by Luo Qiuyun).
Leave a line before dying, which can be used to solve the current emotional drama:
"What you want in your life, one is for pleasure, the second is for fine wine, and the third is to be unashamed."
Forbidden male and female love?
This divine realm is not so old-fashioned.
The true god Of the Ancient Zhou Dongyu set up a marriage shrine and a marriage meeting, and the popular "male god" reasonably and legally enjoyed idol treatment.
Not like a cathedral, but like the Garden of Eden.
Regarding love, it has a "dare" side.
The main emotional line is stimulated from the beginning of the cold-faced teacher's naughty student's contradictions, after which mutual protection produces attraction, there is no excessive entanglement of fate and luck, and the first step of ambiguity is taken bravely by the ancients.
This is the story of a woman chasing a man.
In the idol drama format of the three thousand-year-old immortal and the thirty million president, "Ancient Dust" stands instead from the perspective of feminism in the new era.
Not a big heroine, but also do not need you to spoil, spoil you.
Clumsy temptations, speculations of gain and loss, the attraction of clever ghosts and horses, and the emotional advancement of step-by-step camps, it is like putting Zhou Dongyu's spirituality on the most suitable track.
Space is limited and there will be few examples.
Until the final interpretation of the sovereign-like forehead kiss -
It's not me who's shy, it's you.
But on the other hand, it also expresses the cowardice of "affection".
The most popular CP at the moment, MoonMi and Apocalypse, are also a pair of female chasers.
Apocalypse is willful, stubborn, and thick-skinned.
Tsukimi can only spit out: Elm head.
But the more important reason is that it is his sweetheart, not her.
A pair of happy enemies, but ushered in a bad ending.
When Tsukimi was dying, she fell into the arms of the Apocalypse and told her true heart.
Apocalypse is no longer acting stupid this time.
It turned out that this proud boy was just a coward.
"Ancient Dust" is about the world of God.
But it let go of the eternal sorrow of love and hate, and confronted the emotional desire and cowardice of men and women.
Between the sweets, Sir saw the human spirit.
Refreshing, crisp, yet moving.
Only because it is not God, it is you and me.
03
Let's take it a step further.
Today Zhou Dongyu was ridiculed by the group, is it her own dilemma?
This is not ironic, with stereotypes as a cocoon of self-binding fairy drama.
With the stereotyped "immortal qi", "high cold" and "four seas and eight wildernesses".
Expel any little sense of realism and attempts to live.
It seems so.
It is not tall enough, not pure enough, not "fairy fundamentalism".
But what exactly was expelled?
It is the Immortal Yuan Qi itself.
In other words, if you are not immortal, you can become an immortal.
The first scene of "Ancient Dust".
In the worldview setting, men and women are emotional, and there is a high-level ancient style word called: red luan star movement (ancient meaning means that the woman's happy event is near).
It is immortality, it is destiny, it is God's arrangement.
And the Ancients heard it.
The word that is repeated over and over again is: Heartbeat...?
It is affection, it is willingness, it is the will of man.
A small idle pen with a harmonic stem pulls the fairy love that floats in the sky back to the ground.
Although she is lively by nature, her love sinuses are not open.
I don't understand emotion.
Nor do I understand a love word, the tempering and persistence behind it.
It's not like, "Green Snake" has no human personnel so there is no concern about the green snake.
In the past, we believed that becoming an immortal needed cultivation, and that immortals had the archetype of immortals.
It doesn't matter if you're a hundred years old or a thousand years of cultivation.
As soon as he was a snake, he couldn't help but twist his waist and transform into a snake to climb up and down.
Even if you hold back, a cup of male yellow wine will show its original shape under the belly.
See.
Immortals do not blindly draw a line with mortals.
Instead, they are bound to cling to earthly imperfections.
This flaw is the intersection of the two worlds of heaven and earth, and it is the fulcrum of the whole myth.
Powerful and small.
Soaring and sinking.
Otherworldly and mundane weaknesses.
It is the contrast between the two that makes each other successful.
contrarily.
Without the immortals of human desire, without weaknesses of the miraculous, there can only be no way to rely on them, and they can only go to the fake void of plastic sense and studio style.
At a glance of ten thousand years, open mouth and close your mouth to the world.
If there is no human word, it is called Xian Xia?
No need to shy away.
"Ancient Dust" it is an idol drama.
Zhou Dongyu and Xu Kai's CP sense is actually a little surprise.
But idol drama does not mean that you have to draw the ground as a prison and repeat a rigid formula.
No matter how it goes, there really isn't much time for fantasy dramas.
We don't pretend not to see, the "cool dramas" enjoy the traffic of the top sky, but at the same time they are facing cruel iterative upgrades.
Let's talk about the actor/character dimension.
Once cool is too scarce.
In 20 years, idol dramas master a set of "hegemonic sadomasochism", write three sad songs, and then they can rank among the top ruling ratings.
This fengyi brother, the one who is a queen, is not happy.
In 10 years, first the "girlish feeling" ruled the world, and then the "big heroine" threatened the eight directions.
But one by one.
Ratings, topics, impact, and even controversy have shrunk.
And after that?
Two years ago, "Dear, Beloved" blew up a storm of fragrances, indulging in sweetness to the extreme, and could ignore the sorrow.
Iterations are getting faster and faster, and more and more eliminations are being made.
A more exciting taste is born, and a piece of less exciting than the victim is poured down.
Back to the controversy at the beginning of the article.
Movie cafes are not suitable for small screens?
Complex and layered performances?
This is not so much an embarrassment to the movie café.
Rather, it is a domestic drama that is caught in increasingly narrow aesthetic standards, and it is cocooning itself.
Zhou Xun was ridiculed as "old" and "swollen" as soon as he started broadcasting.
Regardless of the time span she was going to star in.
Regardless of the fact that this drama abandons the coolness of Eryu and my deception, it is said that it is a kind of active lying flat after seeing through the truth and falsehood.
After the word-of-mouth counterattack, 7.5 points were scored, defeating the "Yanxi Raiders" that was in the limelight.
Zhang Zhen's "Chen Xi Yuan" was also considered ugly at first.
But a little bit, Zhang Zhen and Ni Ni used engaging performances to bring the rating from 5.4 to 8.3.
And the first level of "Ancient Dust" in front of the road is actually the "ugly" word.
Watch people, watch dramas.
Why don't we allow a more diverse standard, why not give "different" a little more time to prove ourselves.
At the end of the day.
Sir is still upset about a scene in the play.
There are a lot of voices on the Internet as evidence of "ugly" and "unsuitable".
Saying that Zhou Dongyu is "hideous in appearance, the five views are out of control."
Looking at it alone, it is indeed slightly exaggerated.
But what about the situation?
Since she was a child, she was slapped with a slap, flew more than ten meters, and was thrown out of the door.
Hideous?
Runaway?
That's right.
If this slap must continue to be meticulous, then what is left of the fairy drama?
It is the expression management as long as Mei Meida does not know what the performance is.
It's a cliché that doesn't hurt or itch without a real touch.
It is the aesthetic becoming more and more narrow and deformed Immortal Eight Strands.
Such "immortals".
How long do you believe it can live?
