很喜欢这种大家全都死光了就剩一两个人的末世设定,不过这故事还是太隐晦了。这种人物太少的片子很难设计情节的起伏吧。一个人努力对抗熵的增加真是又绝望又非常有吸引力的一件事。

整体设定跟第五元素的背景很像。这也算是反克苏鲁概念吧,一个全然未知且层级比人类高出不知道多少的力量也可能是善意的。然而整个电影的重心似乎又是移植人类大脑到机器身躯这个老掉牙的题材上了。抛开这些来看伪纪录片手法还算成功,勉强给个三星吧。

那个年代的小说经常会有特别cult的感觉,好像充满了隐喻,感觉我小时候看出一些门道,觉得这个故事有种说不出的诡异,虽说表面上是教育孩子合理安排时间学习和玩乐的,很多地方细思恐极的样子,就像恐怖片或者奇幻小说里那些莫名其妙出现的书和道具一样。故事本身很松散,甚至有点儿不伦不类,不过很有发展成漫威世界那样设定的潜质。

悬念设置的非常好,其实走的也是第六感和小岛惊魂的路子,只不过换了一个更宏大的背景。只不过场面和特效严重拖了后腿。再牛的亮点也不能独立撑起一个好电影。

Stories of Your Life and Others

Ted Chiang publishing house: Vintage 2016 - 6
Stories of Your Life and Others is a collection of masterpieces and recently it has taken Hollywood by storm. The lead story in the collection will soon to be a major motion picture starring Amy Adams, while another story has been optioned by Fox and is in development. Offering readers the dual delights of the very strange and the heartbreakingly familiar, Stories of Your Life and Others presents characters who must confront sudden change. In the amazing and much-lauded “Story of Your Life,” a grieving mother copes with divorce and the death of her daughter by drawing on her new knowledge of an alien language and its nonlinear structure. In “Liking What You See: A Documentary,” a clever pastiche of news reports and interviews chronicle a college’s initiative to turn off the human ability to recognize beauty. In “Understand,” a young man has an amazing reaction to an experimental drug used to heal brain damage. In each story, with sharp intelligence and humor, Chiang examines what it means to be alive in a world marked by uncertainty, but also by wonder.

因为电影降临才拿起这本书,但是当时拼命想买这本书的初衷却是因为巴别塔,20年前上大学的时候偶然在网上看到过,特别喜欢,记得后来还特意打印出来了。不过不太认同这是什么科幻小说,更像奇幻和科学寓言的结合体。天使那篇看的让人不寒而栗。而你一生的故事如果没有电影的进一步诠释估计会看不懂。其他的几篇比较一般,感觉Ted Chiang很有想法,又有很多硬知识硬理论的基础,但是就是差那么一点儿,要驾驭长篇可能还欠火候。

Kim Stanley Robinson publishing house: Spectra 1993 - 10 other title: Red Mars
In his most ambitious project to date, award-winning author Kim Stanley Robinson utilizes years of research and cutting-edge science in the first of three novels that will chronicle the colonization of Mars. For eons, sandstorms have swept the barren desolate landscape of the red planet. For centuries, Mars has beckoned to mankind to come and conquer its hostile climate. Now, in the year 2026, a group of one hundred colonists is about to fulfill that destiny. John Boone, Maya Toitavna, Frank Chalmers, and Arkady Bogdanov lead a mission whose ultimate goal is the terraforming of Mars. For some, Mars will become a passion driving them to daring acts of courage and madness; for others it offers and opportunity to strip the planet of its riches. And for the genetic "alchemists, " Mars presents a chance to create a biomedical miracle, a breakthrough that could change all we know about life...and death. The colonists place giant satellite mirrors in Martian orbit to reflect light to the planets surface. Black dust sprinkled on the polar caps will capture warmth and melt the ice. And massive tunnels, kilometers in depth, will be drilled into the Martian mantle to create stupendous vents of hot gases. Against this backdrop of epic upheaval, rivalries, loves, and friendships will form and fall to pieces--for there are those who will fight to the death to prevent Mars from ever being changed. Brilliantly imagined, breathtaking in scope and ingenuity, Red Mars is an epic scientific saga, chronicling the next step in human evolution and creating a world in its entirety. Red Mars shows us a future, with both glory and tarnish, that awes with complexity and inspires with vision.

虽然充斥了对现代媒体和商业的讽刺,不过既然在这样的环境里能出现这样的电影本身就是充满希望的,虽然比较罕见就是了。每次看这种片子都觉得人类真是神奇的存在。还有一个感触就是这种鼓励人们“放下一切走出去”的宣传已经滥大街了,而真正能做到的貌似反倒越来越少了。可能正因为这样人们才需要吧。
