James Cameron's epic science fiction blockbuster "Avatar 2" was officially released on December 16, with a box office of 130 million on the first day, which is also the only imported film to exceed 100 million on the first day of the box office this year. The Pandora Ocean World in the video is grand, spectacular and novel. Netizens exclaimed, "It's like I went to the Maldives for 100 yuan and drifted on the bottom of the sea for three hours."
The wonderful marine creatures also opened the audience's eyes. Among the many new characters, the kind and wise ocean beast Tukun has become the most beloved character.
map Kun is extremely huge and is a king-level species under the sea. It is a creature that is smarter than humans. They have their own language, art, mathematics and music. They never actively attack foreign races and treat external attacks and plunders in a defensive manner. Tukun was killed by the human Kun team because there was a substance in his body that could delay aging. In the
film, the scene of the migration of Tukun is accompanied by magnificent music, making the scene so spectacular that it is amazing.
A single Tukun named "Payacan" is a good friend of the male protagonist Jack's youngest son. Its wisdom and spirituality were captured by humans and became a broken fin. In order to prevent humans from hunting and protecting their relatives, they are misunderstood by the ethnic group and "left alone".
Some netizens said, "It is kind, lonely, smart and brave. Its experience is very touching. It has been hurt, misunderstood, and excluded, but it is misunderstood because of 'save'. In the end, what it did in the final battle is also 'save'. In a sense, the biggest hero in "Avatar 2" is Tukun 'Payakan'."
"When Tu Kun jumped up from the ocean regardless of danger and helped the Jack family to deal with the villain, I felt moved in my heart. The climax scene in the end of the film was more touching than ignite love, not only from the family affection and family relationship reflected by Jack family, but also the touch brought by Tu Kun's 'Payakan'."
Some netizens directly said: "I really want a Tu Kun."
Zhuangzi wrote in "Xiaoyaoyou": "There is a fish in the north, and its name is Kun. Kun is so big that it is not known how many thousands of miles it is; it turns into a bird, and its name is Peng. The back of Peng is not known how many thousands of miles it is."
It is reported that the Kun style of "Avatar 2" refers to the three creatures: humpback whale, green-haired turtle, and spotted seal.
Recently, Cameron said in an interview with Chinese media that his life love is movies and the ocean, and "Avatar 2" is a love letter he wrote to the ocean.
In addition to the director, Cameron is also an ocean explorer. He has been committed to marine protection, filming many marine documentaries such as cetaceans, conducting deep-sea diving adventures around the world, and diving many times to see the wreckage of the Titanic.
After the filming of "Avatar", he spent a huge amount of money to build the submarine "Deep Sea Challenger". In 2012, he successfully dived to the Mariana Trench, the deepest part of the world's ocean, to the seabed with a water depth of nearly 35,756 feet (about 10,898.43 meters), becoming the third explorer in human history to dive to the deepest part of the ocean, and was also the first person to dive alone.
This time, "Avatar 2" spent a lot of effort to present a realistic ocean world. Motion capture technology can present smooth pictures and vivid expressions on land, but it is difficult to do underwater. Cameron once said that a colleague had advised him to use commonly used smoke, lights, wind devices, etc. to simulate underwater effects, but he felt that it was not realistic enough.
"Avatar 2" has a large number of underwater shots, which are completed using underwater direct shooting and motion capture. Cameron requires the actor to complete without breathing equipment and hold his breath. The actor actually went down to a giant 900,000 gallon water tank that simulated the current to the greatest extent. Kate Winslet, who plays the high priest of the island clan, holds his breath for more than 7 minutes at a time.
73-year-old Sigourney Weaver is not willing to be outdone. He can hold his breath underwater for 6 minutes and also took the diving certificate.
Cameron's team has developed an underwater camera, camera and motion capture system designed for underwater shooting to establish a new 3D system so that the audience can see ultra-high underwater motion capture technology and vivid biological details that are not inferior to land.New algorithms and artificial intelligence are also used to create special effects lenses. It can be said that "Avatar 2" is a masterpiece of today's high-tech film industry.
In addition, many viewers have also discovered a small detail of "Avatar 2". The actor who plays Jack's adopted daughter "Kiri" in the film is Sigourney Weaver, the actor who plays Dr. "Grace" in "Avatar".
She said that she had sacrificed in the first part, and the return of this sequel to play a 14-year-old girl is one of her challenges, so she made great adjustments and even went to high school to observe the small details of the current young girls' words and deeds, so that she could get closer to the role of Kiri.
