The output of the 2021 ancient puppet market is extremely high, and the new dramas are online one after another, but the explosive models have not come out, the slot points are piled up, and what is more interesting is that this year's ancient puppet market has exploded the concept of "ancient ugly 101".
"Ugly 101", that is, costume ugly man 101, to put it bluntly, is the male character image in the ancient doll, which really cannot meet the visual enjoyment of the audience, and even hurts the eyes a little.
We do not advocate the worship of the supremacy of appearance, but also hope that the film and television industry is more diversified, do not sell appearance anxiety, but on the matter, the pursuit of visual enjoyment of idol dramas, if you reject the beauty of the ugly, is not the end of the upside down?
If the F4 members of "Meteor Garden" were all strange and ugly, the audience would probably only have one thought when watching the whole drama, is the brain of Shancai a shell? Why didn't you call the police and arrest those four little hooligans?
The more you look at the new drama materials of the ancient puppets, the more you don't understand the eyes of the producers, the ancient ugly one after another, forcing the audience to can't help but miss the top flower men who were once, although the acting skills have been controversial, but the appearance is really not picked.
Going back a while, there are beautiful men in costumes with acting skills, good manners, and high looks, such as the carp across the river, and even the level of Yan Kuan and Qiao Zhenyu was not uncommon by the audience when they first debuted.
Now think back to the childhood when Wei Shi envied not knowing how to cherish, unlike now, the audience not only has to endure the acting skills of the newcomers, but also to endure their appearance, and it is really too difficult to squat an eye-catching ancient doll.
However, when complaining about "ancient ugliness", it is also necessary to say a fair word for some actors.
Some "ancient ugly", is the actor's own image really can not blow up, but some "ancient ugly", but can find some excuses, the actor's foundation is actually not so bad, but the producer's external "decoration", but dragged a lot of hind legs.
The most typical is the two "high popularity of ancient clowns" "Kyauk ruo yun yue" and "Jun Jiuling", one let the "five bamboo uncle" Tong Mengshi filter broken, one pulled a number of male actors down the yan altar.
Tong Mengshi starred in "Kyaukruo Cloud Moon" itself is a "double blind" choice, a simple "weak beauty" setting, it is not related to Tong Mengshi, who is as strong as a wild bull, starring in this kind of persona, he is doomed to be scolded.
Putting aside the "weak beauty" setting of Rong Jing, purely looking at Tong Meng's appearance of "The Moon in the Clouds", it really makes Wuzhu powder unable to export, and modern clothes are like greasy upstarts, or the kind that loves to comb oil heads.
The costume is round and flat, round in the flesh, flat in the facial features.
From another angle, it's not good.
If you look at it from another angle, it won't look good.
360 degrees is not good.
Simply looking at the stills, saying that he is the general's vice general is a bit reluctant, as a supporting role is lacking a little spirit, and his image, who can imagine that this is the TOP level beautiful man in the ancient chinese novel?
However, Tong Mengshi is indeed not a Yan Peak-level artist, but objectively speaking, his own conditions are not bad, and the formal clothes photos attending the event are refreshing and tough, without the upstart temperament in the play.
Earlier, his uncle Wuzhu in "Qing Yu Nian" also once circled because of his tough and beautiful facial lines.
With one more pair of eyes, how did the costume image suddenly change from a handsome uncle to an ugly man?
Flipping over his old drama again, although there is a wall with the absolutely beautiful man, on the whole, it is still eye-catching, and it is not top-notch in the old doll, but it is also a hundred times stronger than the current ancient ugly style.
Looking at the "Jun JiuLing" next door, the male protagonist Jin Han will not say much, this costume image has always been complained about since his debut, but his Ling Yunnan and Zhao Xifeng are quite recognized by the audience.
Jin Han's problem is not the level of appearance, but that his temperament is more suitable for the villain role, it is difficult to play a pure and good decent role, and it is even more difficult to succeed in playing the male protagonist who needs a face value bonus.
In addition to Jin Han, there is another character in "Jun Jiu Ling" who was shouted by the audience as a face value too dissuaded just after his appearance, that is, the affectionate paranoid male Erlu Yunqi in the original book that made many fans feel uneasy.
He is also a masculine and beautiful man in the original work, but in the drama version of "Jun Jiuling", Lu Yunqi's face is like staying up for three big nights, not only a little swollen, but also a little "floating", and the lips are extra "plump".
Beautiful?
Sorry, not only did not feel the beautiful male aura, even the male masculine charm did not get to, when I first saw this role, seven words were once speechless, such a look, how did you get Lu Yunqi?
You know, Ning Yunzhao, who is equal to this role and tension, is still played by Wang Youshuo, who plays "Wang Kuan" in "The Chronicles of the Great Song Youth", and this male artist, in addition to his nose, still has a beautiful male background.
But flipping through the cast list, seven words found that Du Yafei, who starred in Lu Yunqi, originally really had this qualification.
He in "Detective Jane Doesn't Know" in the thousand-faced man Ye Xiaoxiao, the appearance is very outstanding, when chasing the hero detective, Ye Xiaoxiao is considered a classical student in the audience's heart, and his appearance has almost been badly evaluated.
The same actor, only a year apart, how did he suddenly change from a beautiful man to an ugly man?
Looking at the "Blessing of Heavenly Officials" who went out of the circle with a set of boot reuters photos, Zhai Xiaowen, who played Xie Pity, almost became the "ugly 101" shoulder handle, the original fan was angry and refused, and ordinary netizens could not snort this face.
However, at the same time, Zhai Xiaowen's modern drama image was not bad, although the performance of Xie Pi was somewhat reluctant, but he was still a beautiful boy, and the gap with Reuters' perception was not generally large.
Three different works, three different actors, change the drama to change the appearance, this is a very interesting phenomenon, the root of the "ancient ugly" is the capital strong, but at the same time, there are also some external factors affected.
It is undeniable that the basic conditions of actors are not solid enough, which is the basic reason for the decline in perception.
Tong Mengshi in "The Moon in the Clouds" obviously has signs of physical blessing, the appearance itself is not top-notch, and the works that require high requirements for the appearance cannot maintain the shape, and are destined to carry the pot for their own impreciseness.
In addition to the poor appearance of Du Yafei in "Jun Jiuling", the fluctuation of his acting skills is also very large, and his performance in "Detective Jane Does Not Know" has the taste of the old martial artist, and his every move is in place.
After changing to Lu Yunqi, his acting skills are obviously superficial, and even a little trace of "eye-catching acting" common among post-90s artists, losing the supervision of the conscience crew, and the actors seem to be a little powerful.
In addition to the actor's own problems, the impact of styling, makeup and hair, and lighting on the appearance is also quite critical.
Tong Mengshi's face shape is relatively "hard", and the more colorful costumes in the past will be more or less decorated in the hairstyle, and the crew of "Kyaukro-Like Clouds" does not use the style to avoid it in the face of more obvious shortcomings after fafu.
Du Yafei's makeup in "Detective Jane Doesn't Know" is classical and three-dimensional, and in "Jun Jiuling", it is so tragic that it looks like a serious illness, and although the character's personality is sick, the appearance is not really sick.
Producers need to recognize a reality, and the ability of actors in the industry today is no longer as good as ten or twenty years ago, no matter what kind of clear soup or killing Matt style can be controlled.
What's more, the previous industry's dragging shape is only a small part of the crew in the release, most of the crew to get a group of handsome men and women easy copies, still will still exert force on the shape, force to maximize their charm.
Nowadays, the producer generally takes a difficult copy of the "actor qualification is generally mediocre", but uses easy operation to make a perfunctory answer, how can it not increase the perception of "ancient ugly" everywhere?
The actor's qualifications are not enough to challenge the unsuitable role, has been scolded by many audiences, seven words feel that after closing their eyes and casting, they do not bother to do "decoration" for the actors, it is also time to take some evil force back.
Strong feeding of "ancient clowns" has challenged the bottom line of the audience, and it is rare that there are a few artists who can "lift up tall in the short", and it is not good to give them "decoration", this type of crew is doomed to produce a good drama.
