比普罗米修斯好看太多,不会有降智细节让人出戏。电影选角都非常合适,女主有雷普利那味,把从较为天真/还没经过太多毒打的小姑娘转变为坚韧聪慧的女战士演绎的非常好。彩蛋和致敬蛮多的而且都恰到好处,中间女主和弟弟在失重环境中穿越浓酸漩涡那段也挺惊艳的。

太好了,和书不一样的好。导演和编剧给出了自己的解读。比起纠结是什么让人为人这个问题,电影直接借Rosen老板说出"more human than human"让“仿生人本质是人”变得self-evident,得以更关注于仿生人为自己权利的争取,与自己“造物主”的矛盾、主人的傲慢和奴隶的抗争。特别喜欢片中和书里的几处区别:
一个是电影中把Rachel成不知道自己是仿生人的仿生人,拥有的记忆是Rosen老板侄女的。得知自己可能是仿生人后还追去Rick的房间,拿着幼年自己和母亲的合照企图求证自己记忆的真实性。电影比起书刻画出仿生人的动摇、自我怀疑和脆弱,也让仿生人角色更丰满。

另一个是书中仿生人在充满童稚的好奇心下,残忍地切掉自然蜘蛛的一条条腿,再用蜡烛烧它来探究失去一半腿的蜘蛛是否还能行走。而电影中Roy死前握着白鸽,把它放归天空。

“One never knows how to greet a guest like you,” she says. “After all, are you a guest at all? Or do I treat you like a vacuum cleaner?”

很奇妙,一个AI陪伴性机器人倒是比100%自然人类更有人性、更无私。整个冰冷的世界从Klara的口中述出倒是更温情和有童趣了,但klara叙述的社会/人类细节有时还是会让我细思极恐、不寒而栗。而人类对于拥有独立思考能力和部分情感的机器人的物化也让人深思,界定人类的标准是什么?是硅基碳基构造?是过了图灵测试?还是拥有了一定percent的感情和人类思维?

Philip K. Dick publishing house: Del Rey 1996 - 5
By 2021, the World War had killed millions, driving entire species into extinction and sending mankind off-planet. Those who remained coveted any living creature, and for people who couldn't afford one, companies built incredibly realistic simulacrae: horses, birds, cats, sheep. . . They even built humans. Emigrees to Mars received androids so sophisticated it was impossible to tell them from true men or women. Fearful of the havoc these artificial humans could wreak, the government banned them from Earth. But when androids didn't want to be identified, they just blended in. Rick Deckard was an officially sanctioned bounty hunter whose job was to find rogue androids, and to retire them. But cornered, androids tended to fight back, with deadly results.

2.5,感受不到哪里宗教性了,论镜头构图宗教性不如降临,只是借“外星人是我们的神”和 leap of faith 来合理化俩科学家追踪folklore研究外星人的执念。

而这群科学家的不专业和降智让人非常出戏:临床研究不戴口罩、对实验安全守则毫无敬畏之心etc, be like 你们不团灭谁团灭…全片最有意思的概念是对 creators 和creatures 关系的探讨:

人类在创造仿生人后相信自己能成神,他们认为神之所以是神,是因为它是造物主。而同时,人类的造物-仿生人也想成为造物主,并用人类的造物主titans的素材,以仿生人的造物主人类为母体孕育了一个会不断抱脸、吸收宿体基因进化的异形prototype。

当这个反骨仔仿生人开始抗争时代表着它脱离集团控制,拥有了一定的个人意志,反而支持了人类作为造物主的身份。但问题是,creators就一定是神了吗?

想到以前大学时聊到的【完美】这个概念,和中世纪哲学上比较主流的看法:人是不完美的、是有限的,而人却能意识到自己的不完美,也能意识到其他存在的不完美。这说明一定有个【完美】存在,来作为标尺衡量何为完美。而中世纪哲学家or神学家通常认为这个存在是god…

但logically,无所不能的【完美】具备创造【完美】生物的能力。而人类作为creator是创造不了【完美】的。只能说真有神也轮不到人当。

作为95年的电影真得好牛。看到最多对它的夸赞就是细节真实,比如最后在废弃大楼打斗时,战车几发子弹把大楼承重柱打烂,露出了里面的钢筋。 攻壳应该是第一个把钢筋细化到这个地步的片吧... 看到小岛秀夫和押井守在播客上的对话,小岛对押井守的称赞:“第一个把镜头语言带到动画界”丝毫不为过。
作为"show but not tell"的拥趸,一直觉得大部分科幻电影的都过于用力了,非常传教式地lecturing。基本都靠主角把messages和设定【说】出来。这部也不例外,是我唯一不太喜欢的一点,但转念一下:除了这种手法,好像确实没有更好的办法传达核心了。Ghost这个词用得真得妙。 被困在义体(shell, 壳)里的灵魂(ghost)像鬼一样,血肉之躯被电子件替换后,失去原装身体的“自我意识”还能被称为spirit/soul吗?Ghost确实更贴切也更有暗示性。

很难想象这是一本首发晋江的书,视角很新颖,女性统治社会下的dystopian novel。故事发生在一个由智能系统统治的女性主宰社会(男性被关在繁育所繁殖),每个人都会在系统的评估下有获得自己的社会价值评分:由工作(物质文化价值)和社群评价分(情感价值)构成。主角是在“(社会)漏洞管理局”负责捉虫的,类似于POI里靠machine寻找并铲除恐怖分子的工作(也像Psycho-Pass里的执行官);而女二(女主她对象)则在性格和人设上都非常像root,职责很像叛逃前的宅总,负责在权限内管理、解读、调整系统。两人也不出意料的在人类未来这个大问题上站在了对立面。

可以看到很多科幻经典的影子(三体、善地、西部世界等),写作风格让我想到了泰德姜的《软件体的生命周期》:有个很大的构架,但结局戛然而止。
