Pixar is forever a god. /"Spiritual Journey"
"After the invention of movies, human life has extended at least three times."
This At this moment, after finally completing 2020, we can understand the meaning of this sentence more than ever. During the 366 days divided by masks, isolation and farewell, we spent a lot of time missing the beauty of this world through a screen.
Although we have been separated from movie theaters for nearly half a year, and the number of movies released in China throughout the year has also dropped by 40% year-on-year, we have also seen "囧Mom" The first attempt to choose streaming media saw the women's volleyball team winning the championship in 1981 and the 800 Warriors in 1937.
Later, when the Shanghai Film Festival and Beijing Film Festival came back, audiences were required to insist on wearing masks throughout the venue, but the tickets were still sold out. Recently, Pixar has also come back, using a piece of "Soul" to remind us of the love and sparks in life.
It’s not just movies either.
On the screen, everyone is in isolation, but we have countless good ways to defeat loneliness and panic. The wisdom is always among the people.
On the screen, young people who believe that everything can be rapped are speaking out for gender equality and the vulnerable in school bullying; doctors Yang Li, Luo Xiang, and Tao Yong are also In the form of a talk show, it touches the truth of comedy.
Many times this year, movies, television and variety shows are sliding forward along the progress bar for us. But it is often the screenshots captured by the pause button after pressing the space bar or double-clicking the screen that can give the originally tense soul a moment to breathe.
We have taken stock of the top ten "Stoops" in 2020, which include heartbeat, emotion, reality and reflection. I hope these inner pauses can be transformed into energy for us to rush into 2021.
Hou Lang
This gesture is interpreted as "fainting", but young people don't seem to appreciate it. / "Back Wave"
The well-known actor He Bing probably never imagined that his most influential and popular film and television moment in 2020 did not come from any film and television masterpiece. , but a promotional video dedicated to young people - "The Back Wave".
"Please check it out. Station B is dedicated to the new generation of youth manifesto." On the eve of the May 4th Youth Day, this short film of less than 4 minutes caused a stir in the Chinese Internet world. Huge waves. So far, this video has been viewed more than 30.5 million times, ranking first in the rankings on the entire site.
Through the screen, people can clearly see this old artist in a straight suit, with a rich recital accent and a simple smile, praising the new generation of young people " There is fire in my heart and light in my eyes.” Judging from the reactions of a considerable number of young viewers, at least the observation in the first half of the sentence is accurate.
"You are lucky to meet such an era, but the era is even more lucky to meet you like this." People can't help but have a doubt, who is this "you"?
The high-definition mixed-cut footage that followed gave a reference answer. However, whether it is skydiving or diving in the sea, or owning a few sets of genuine JK or Hanfu, or winning grand prizes in international e-sports competitions... this kind of lifestyle is somewhat promising for ordinary people in front of the screen. But it is impossible.
Han Han, a writer born in the 1980s, once translated a famous line in the movie "Heartbeat" as "Some people live in high-rise buildings, some people live in deep ditches, some people are bright, and some people are naked." rust". If this video represents the ideal Houlang in the eyes of Qianlang, then this look full of envy and expectation seems to only focus on young people who "live in high-rise buildings" rather than "in deep ditches".
So, you can see that in just a few days after the release of "Houlang", there were a lot of parodies about it, which is dizzying. The Hou Lang people either teased or ridiculed it, displaying their disapproval and disapproval of "Hou Lang".
The well-known video up host "Zhu Yiyi's Boring Life" parodied a speech given by Zhu Yiyi to new employees. / "Fei Lang"
No matter how real young people think of "Hou Lang", at least from the perspective of the video publisher, this promotional video is a recognition and praise for the younger generation. with messages.
This reminds me of a famous interview conducted by the famous Japanese actress Shirin Kuki during her lifetime -
When asked "What life advice do you have for young people?" , the old artist replied: "Please don't ask me such difficult questions. If I were a young person, I would not listen to anything the old people say."
Gojoren puts on a microphone on the stage
The moment Nishina put down the microphone, it was like a superhero surrendering, turning around and continuing to live a cool life. /"Summer of the Band"
In "Le Xia", Wutiao people were eliminated many times and resurrected many times, turning this summer into "catching Wutiao" The summer of man”.
They came on stage for the first time, changed songs temporarily, and sang "Daoshan Pretty Boy" that most people didn't understand. They also wore self-crowned laurels, "Rural Tuozai" ""Guo Fu County".
But after one song and several talks, the audience began to accept this setting. The band logo can be a plastic bag and the drum set can be assembled from trash cans. , wearing pink flip-flops can also perform on the rock stage. "Business" and "poetic" are not a pair of antonyms.
For a time, "deconstructing Wutiao people" became a national game.
Why are their lyrics all about stories that happened between A-Zhen and A-Qiang, the dreamy Lisa Hair Salon and the southern county? The context is even more alienated for German music fans. But you can hear the shadow of Russian pop and French chanson in its melody?
Why did PeopleSoft read Zizek on the night of the trending search?
Why is it that the smell of plastic is obviously artificial and false, but it becomes a true portrayal of people in Wutiao?
In the Call Out competition, their score was once again not as good as other bands. Ma Dong casually said, "Don't take the microphone away", calling for PeopleSoft's hands. In a gesture of surrender, the microphone is gently returned to the stage.
Some people interpreted it as a hero's farewell, some saw a rock attitude that was unwilling to compromise with the times, and some remembered that they "would rather be filthy than be vulgar." Declaration... But undoubtedly, on such a beautiful starry night, wherever we look, we can see the unrestrained, romantic and beautiful things that we have not seen for a long time.
Even if you don’t understand Haifeng’s words, it’s hard not to be attracted by the “black hole charm” of Wutiao people.
Guo Jingming was scolded by Er Dongsheng and cried
Xiaosi bluntly said that he did not like Er’s "Women 3" and was criticized He choked with anger and shed tears of grievance. /"Actors please take their seats"
This year, Er Dongsheng finally became the second man to make Guo Jingming cry. He questioned Guo Jingming with his soul and expelled Guo Jingming from the director circle: "What system did you study?"
Since his debut, Guo Jingming has rarely admitted defeat.
The sentence "You can never like something you don't like, but please allow it to exist" confused Li Cheng's Confucianism, and Wei Kunlin laughed angrily when he revealed old accounts and new calculations. An S card directly offended netizens across the country. Amid the disapproval, "Qing Ya Ji" miraculously exceeded 100 million on its first day of release.
Not only will they not give in, they will also attack from all sides.
When "My Star" received decent reviews, he began to stand up and please the audience: "I often canvass for votes, which will have the opposite effect, but I still I want to canvass votes for them."
When Er Dongsheng's "Women 3" received similarly harmonious reviews, Guo Jingming couldn't help but object: "I don't like it. This work... I just feel regretful, confused and dissatisfied... Maybe my training system is different."
Guo Jingming can always accurately capture every topic, but Unfortunately, this time he met Er Dongsheng.
If Ma Dong defeated the young Jing Ming with logic before, then Director Er won the battle with his speaking speed and aura, and directly hit the point. Above:
He is scolding the fishermen in troubled waters who have lowered the market level but is still good at teaching others, and he is scolding his colleagues who are tea masters who still act well despite being cheap. Even if he is "emotional" A little, but if Li Chengru is avenged, can the audience not give him a standing ovation?
My sister rides the wind and waves, my brother chases the light and removes the oil
The correct way to open "Egg Dumplings with Shredded Pork". /Sohu Fashion Festival
At a fashion festival at the end of the year, Du Chun connected through the air with his sisters Meng Jia, Yu Kewei, and Huang Shengyi, and sponsored a plate of egg dumplings for each of them. There is also a silent version of the dance tutorial of the same name. The sisters who were "tied into business" seemed to be laughing a little awkwardly.
This year, domestic variety shows have created a new path of "reemployment of old artists", using idol groups to bring back actors, singers, and hosts who were once forgotten by the public.
The logic behind the program’s acquisition of traffic is actually very simple. The 30 sisters who are over 30 have already been in the entertainment industry for many years. With their strength, they can also see signs of hard work that can defeat time. They are mothers, wives and daughters, sisters to each other, riding the wind and waves together towards the next stage and the height they desire to reach. Is there any more beautiful picture than this?
Just as the program's slogan says: "Work hard and overcome, never give up and have faith, laugh and cry freely, and return to youth."
But when a male artist did the same thing again later, the response was completely different. The 21 male stars complimented each other. Whether it was military boxing, horse pole roping, or unnecessary winks and hip bridges on the stage, they all won unanimous praise from the brothers. They focused on recreating the company's annual meeting on the screen and did not consider what to do if the audience's eyes got oily.
Following a similar path, female artists have reborn and embarked on a passionate hard mode. Do male artists just have to stay in their original bodies and deceive themselves by making boring jokes? ?
After all, the middle-aged talent show is also a talent show. The sisters who have struggled to overcome the storm still need to go ashore and join the team after a group night full of dreams and regrets. All in all, there is no improvement. The question is, how long can Chen Zhipeng, who lost 20 pounds for the show, maintain his figure?
Qin Hao takes you to climb the mountain
In 2020, have you been asked to climb the mountain together? /"The Hidden Corner"
Among the one-sentence horror stories in 2020, these two sentences are bound to be on the list:
"Can we climb a mountain together?"
"Do you think there is hope for me?"
If the questioner happens to be a A gentle man wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a worrying hairline, the soundtrack at this time is as "underworld" as "Little White Boat", and the effect is excellent.
All the elements mentioned above appeared in the first episode of "The Hidden Corner". "No hope" was the motive for the murder, and "climbing the mountain" was the first reason for committing the crime. A few steps later, the three children who sang "Little White Boat" became witnesses to the murder. A suspenseful story unfolds, leaving a long-lasting psychological shadow on the audience.
Zijin Chen’s original work is interesting enough, allowing innocent and pure children to get infinitely closer to the reality and evil of society. Several families are entangled with this case, and thus It involves hot topics such as work structure, native family, and children's education.
On the screen, the same "underworld" light and shadow truly restores a small southern city, and can also take the audience into the ever-changing secret corners of each character's heart. . 12 episodes, using a slow pace to interpret this story, allows the Leeuwenhoeks to dig out details that are horrifying to consider in every paused frame.
What is even more rare is that this drama has indeed brought out good actors like Zhang Songwen and Li Meng from the "hidden corners", which makes people feel that domestic dramas "still have hope" ".
Only thirty
Gu Jia, Wang Manni, and Zhong Xiaoqin have been with each other through ups and downs in their 30s.
/Official Blog@TV drama Thirty Only
This is a critical year for the true awakening and explosion of "her" consciousness. Female-themed TV dramas and variety shows are frequently pushed to the public's attention and become a social Focus, "Thirty Only" is the most eye-catching one.
The story slowly unfolds from the perspective of three thirty-year-old women. As the camera pans past the thirty-year-old node, related topics in the play frequently become hot searches, including From Bao Pangshen's entry into the circle of wives, to detailing various scumbag behaviors, to everyone tearing up "green tea" Lin Youyou, the topic starts from women, but it is not limited to women.
This time, it is not the same conflict between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, nor is it a vulgar love triangle. The female anxiety in "Only Thirty" breaks the stereotypes in previous dramas. , appears deep and layered. Whether it is Gu Jia, a stay-at-home mother, Wang Manni, a Shanghai drifter girl, or Zhong Xiaoqin, an ordinary girl, we can clearly see from them that the creation of female characters has gradually moved away from the "silly and sweet" or "beautiful, strong and miserable" concepts. Unruly.
Of course, this straightforward TV series is by no means perfect.
Some viewers complained that the show started high but ended low. Some felt it was not refreshing enough, and some felt the ending was hasty. For example, the resounding slap Gu Jia gave Lin Youyou was regrettable. The famous scenes in the play are still inseparable from the traditional drama of a third party intervening.
At the end of the story, Gu Jia divorced and started a business, Manni went abroad for further study, and Xiaoqin became a writer. The screenwriter gave the three thirty-year-old women a chance to "start over" . I hope that in a few years, this kind of breakthrough in women's lives will not only exist on the screen. I hope that this kind of free and beautiful second half of life can appear in more women.
Unity at Home Concert
Swift played and sang Soon You'll Get Better at home. /Charity concert screenshot
With everyone staying at home, live broadcast has become the main communication channel.
In April, Lady Gaga, as the initiator, worked with the World Health Organization and Global Citizen Charity Organization to create the "One World: United at Home" charity concert to benefit those working in the workplace. Frontline health care workers raised $127.9 million.
The concert*** lasted for 8 hours. Celine Dion, Paul McCartney, Billie Eilish, Taylor Swift, John ·Singers such as Legend have appeared one after another, and Jacky Cheung and Eason Chan, who are more familiar to Chinese audiences, have also become "home CDs".
This is reminiscent of the "Save Life" large-scale rock concerts held simultaneously in London, England, and Philadelphia, the United States, in 1985. At that time, there was a large-scale famine in Africa, and there were countless refugees. In two other distant cities on the earth, musicians who were usually free and bohemian came one after another to participate in this unpaid and non-contract agreement, and finally for More than $70 million has been raised for hungry people.
"Is this reality or an illusion?" The 1985 benefit show opened with Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody". "May everyone have love." The charity performance in 2020 is "The Prayer", accompanied by Lang Lang and sung by a group of stars.
They on the screen are just like us outside the screen. They are wearing pajamas, the quilt is not folded, and their hair is not dried. They are all trapped indoors. But when the music sounds, our hearts will be like the comment area, and the same beliefs from different languages ??will quickly scroll up.
Counter-Entropy
The first meeting between an American agent and a British agent. / "Tenet"
Nolan returned with a "brain-burning blockbuster", so the whole theater was filled with the smell of brain-burning flowers.
For several days, everyone has been explaining to each other what kind of timeline the roller coaster-like "Tenet" is used to run through; this frame is still running How should the character face himself suddenly starting to walk backwards in the next frame?
Movie bloggers also work part-time as Ph.D.s in physics, explaining: "In the normal laws of nature, things follow the principle of entropy increase, and particles change from order to disorder. Development. The movie is set in the future. Through a certain plutonium element and a mechanical gate, particles can become inverse matter, resulting in reverse entropy..."
Ke Mingming Movie I said it myself, don’t try to understand, just feel it.
Putting aside the difficult problem of reverse entropy, everyone was really relaxed and happy.
Some people felt the face of Robert Pattinson, some felt the Zhujiang New Town in the background of the poster, and some felt the sense of CP between the two male protagonists: "Your future is my past."
"Give me vodka and tonic, give him some Diet." Under this still on Douban, everyone who has successfully experienced "Creed" is crying kswl netizens.
Ding Zhen
Ding Zhen will definitely have a place among the top players in 2020.
In less than a year, the identity of this young man with "clean eyes and pure smile" has changed again and again, from a Tibetan young man riding a horse and grazing in Ganzi, Sichuan, to a short video platform star, and then became the tourism promotion ambassador in his hometown of Litang. This rapidly expanding influence and huge contrast in identity are naturally accompanied by various controversies.
Screenshot of Ding Zhen’s original video that became famous
The first thing that ignited was some people’s appearance anxiety. They mocked Ding Zhen, At the same time, they also launched the "I am more handsome than Ding" contest. This unwillingness to grow up in the traditional gender structure is not difficult to understand.
Those who later joined the debate were female netizens with awakened gender consciousness. They boldly praised Ding Zhen’s appearance and quickly compared Ding Zhen’s critics with previous talk shows. Connect with the popular "ordinary but confident" group of men.
Some voices expressed in frustration that the rewards of ten years of hard work were not as good as Ding Zhen’s casual smile. Of course, we can refute this view from many angles, but we cannot deny that this kind of unbalanced psychology is a by-product of contemporary life with a high degree of involution and unprecedented pressure.
Different from other "Internet celebrities", Ding Zhen, who became responsible for traffic, did not take advantage of the situation to enter the entertainment circle and repeat the story that hurt Zhongyong, but entered a local state-owned enterprise. Continuing to choose to endorse hometown tourism, through this choice, public opinion saw the persistence of local cadres behind Ding Zhen, and saw the efforts of a small city embedded in the southwest of the territory to embrace the Internet, adapt to new communication methods, and make its own voice heard.
In addition to the above arguments, this is obviously a more meaningful discovery.
I am just a stray dog ??
Coach: "You should all be trained to be wolves."/"Great! "Youth"
On Douban, "Great!" "Youth" has only been seen by 29,936 people, and more than 20,000 people gave this documentary a high score of 8.8.
The production team spent a long time filming a caring baseball base in the suburbs of Beijing. The children here either come from poor areas and came here after hearing that there was meat to eat; or they are orphans whose mothers have disappeared and their fathers have died. The legendary coach "Shi Ye" here is 70 years old and still personally guides the children to practice football every day.
If there were no baseball, these children might become hooligans and street hustlers. There might also be one more shamate in China's rural areas and one more on the short video platform. Users who live-stream and sing all day long but no one is watching.
"Swinging against the wind and challenging fate" is the subtitle of the documentary. The charity project "forcibly" provides children with a bat and a pair of gloves, and the only way for them to change their lives is to have passion and a sport.
This documentary is sometimes like a hot-blooded comic. The protagonist Sloppy has gone from being a thorn in the head to a main player who knows how to use his strength to speak on the court. He got on a plane for the first time. See the wider world.
Sometimes it is extremely realistic. There is still a huge gap in strength between the teenager and his American peers; the stadium is about to be demolished and rebuilt into real estate; the other protagonist, Xiaoshuang, still cannot get out of his own way. psychological dilemma.
These all prove that only 29,936 people should have watched this film.
