Movie Review丨 "Game of Thrones" everyone has a life you can't define
Game of Thrones" Season 8 Trailer
Winter is coming ......
The people of Westeros are finally beginning to experience the horror of the long night, the endless darkness, the ice and snow that cover all signs of life, and the army of foreign ghosts led by the Night King coming across the Wall.
On the 14th, the final season of the phenomenal American drama "Game of Thrones" (hereinafter referred to as "Game of Thrones") began, and the second episode of the eighth season will be broadcast tomorrow (April 22).
Game of Thrones" is adapted from the fantasy novel series "A Song of Ice and Fire" by American author George R. R. Martin, which tells the legendary story of several great families competing against each other in the fictional and empty continent of Westeros.
The plot development so far, several power camps are becoming clear: Snow Wolf family commander of the North and the Mother of Dragons Daenerys camp alliance, the Iron Throne on the lonely Lion Queen Cersei ruled King's Landing, and the ultimate BOSS Night King led by the army of foreign ghosts is breaking through the Great Wall raging ...... Some people say that "Power Play" redefines good and evil, subverting our view of history, ethics, like experiencing a real story on the land of Westeros, like the Chinese myth and legend "Journey to the West", but also like the historical novel "Three Kingdoms".
But if you ask me, the reason why "Game of Thrones" can conquer tens of millions of "Game of Thrones fans" is that besides the epic magic scenes of "Lord of the Rings", what is more important is that every character in "Game of Thrones", even the small ones with just a few sentences, have a life that you cannot define.
Their good and evil, their desires, their choices, you can not use the general film and television works of "set" to think, more can not easily make a judgment, because may be accidentally reversed by a hard face.
This kind of heartbreak for the characters in the drama's difficult fate, but also their power and wisdom applaud the empathy, making the "power game" has become the top flow in the history of American drama.
For example, the first female lead mother of dragons - Daenerys Targaryen. Just look at the appearance of the first appearance of the dragon family princess, completely at the mercy of her brother's silly white, confused to marry the horse king, was poisoned, assassinated, gullible to a witch's words indirectly killed her husband and the fetus in the womb ......
When you think only beauty and no wisdom of the princess to receive a box of rice, she was reborn in the fire, in the fire hatched three real dragons! This time you will be inspired by her "true dragon bloodline", from then on the land of Westeros will have dragons soaring in the sky again. When you think she will easily defeat her opponents with three dragons, to reclaim the lost Iron Throne, she said: "Wait, I want to free the slaves and break the rule of the nobility!" Do not forget, she is the dragon king "conqueror" Aegon's descendants.
"Conquest" is deeply rooted in the genes of the Dragon family, the new generation of the Mother of Dragons wants not only the Iron Throne, but also the "Queen's Justice", a conqueror with justice in her heart to harness power for the sake of justice in her heart.
"Game of Thrones", has never been related to justice, but can not be equated with justice.
The lioness Cersei, who was prophesied to be overthrown by a younger queen since she was a child. Her life, perhaps the "power game" in the more obvious can be defined as the "villain".
But when you really turn your attention to her, this from childhood to follow the lion family "debt will pay" the daughter of heaven, others owe her too much. On the surface, she was the founding queen of the Baratheon Dynasty, a thousand glories, but in reality, her husband did not love her. Her eldest son was poisoned and the suspect was her own brother "Imp"; her only daughter was taken as a hostage and sent to an enemy country, disfigured and abused by her enemies to vent their personal anger ...... to the extreme of madness.
This time, the opponent is a deep-rooted daughter-in-law Rose and opposed to her bishop Sparrow, a do or die, Cersei ordered to ignite the wildfire, green flames instantly exploded, the enemies at the same time as the smoke!
Cersei stood on the redoubt, calmly watching the rolling smoke. Many spectators at this moment, from the throat to awe. Such a simple and brutal way of revenge, really very Cersei.
But is it cool?
No!
The next second, Cersei's only remaining child, the young King Tommen, who loves his wife, Little Rose, leapt from the tower and collapsed into martyrdom. The Power Play is never a "cool" story like "Yanxi Raiders", rather, it hurts, so much so that you will be overwhelmed by the departure of each character.
I'm afraid one of the most painful scenes in Power Play is the sacrifice of Hodor.
Hodor, a physically strong but mentally retarded manservant of Winterfell in the North, fled Winterfell on the back of his young master Bran, who was crippled in both legs, from the first season, to escape from the demons.
Why does Hodor only say "Hoder" in his mouth? The answer to this mystery was not given until the sixth season when Bran escaped the ghosts. Bran learned the skill of soul travel back to thirty years ago, but this act of travel was discovered by the Night King, the ghosts found the cave where Bran hid. In order to protect Bran evacuation, Ado body as a meat shield against the door, shouting "Hold the door" (block the door)! On the other side of time and space, thirty years ago, it seems that the young Ado also heard the cry, he suddenly fell to the ground, twitching, mouth repeated "Hold the door ......" which gradually became "Hoder".
The secret of Hodor was finally heartbreakingly revealed. Who would have thought that for thirty years, a person's destiny is to hold the door and save another person.
Hodor, a character so small that he has only one highlight moment in "Power Play", has become a sharp pain in the hearts of countless Power Play fans. Some critics believe that the setting of the character of Ado, "Power Play" screenwriter gave a textbook demonstration.
There are too many similar tear-jerking scenes, and if the ending of Ado's sacrifice for Bran can be expected, the "bloody wedding" of Bran's brother, the young wolf master of Winterfell, leaves everyone breathless.
The most "protagonist aura" of Robb Stark, the firstborn son of the Guardians of the North, raised the flag of righteousness, south to save his father under house arrest in King's Landing, at the beginning can be said to be a call to action, but in their own wedding, was claimed to "guarantee the safety of guests" Frey family group destroyed The young wolf master was beheaded, and Shih was killed. The young wolf master was beheaded and Lady Stark Catelyn's throat was slit ...... a horrific massacre that exposed the true bloody undertones of "Game of Thrones". However, the bloody wedding, Rob himself is really not a little responsibility? A commander, for their love, tore up and the Frey family marriage alliance, resulting in allied military instability, personally gave the enemy the opportunity to divide.
There is never an easy victory in "Power Play", and how should the epitaph of Robb Stark's short life be written?
In a sense, "Power Play" has created a new film and television experience, with eight years of updates and a cast that has basically never changed. The audience has grown up with the actors, watching "Erma" grow from an orphan girl who lost her father and mother to a top assassin, and watching "The Three Stooges" soar in height and intelligence.
We can't define the lives of everyone in the show, and "Power Play" can't define the audience's likes and dislikes. Cersei has her advocates, the big bear and the mother of dragons also have CP party, just like the real life in a thousand different ways, live in front of you staged ......
However, the world does not have a banquet, the final season will give what kind of ending?
Like life, can not be predicted.
