＂Big World＂ was shortlisted for the Oscar, but its opponents were not simple.
Special feature of 1905 film network There are less than 70 pages left in the calendar on the desktop, and I suddenly realize that 2018 will soon pass. However, Xiao Dianjun is particularly excited about this, which means that the annual award season is coming!
No, next year’s Oscar for Best Animated Feature Film was first released, and a total of 25 films were qualified.
At first glance, this film list seems to be missing the big explosions of the past two years, but on closer inspection, it is still from surprise gift. At the beginning of this year, I just won the best director of Berlin International Film Festival, so Disney and Pixar’s new films (and) will naturally not fall behind. It is worth mentioning that Chinese animation, which was shortlisted in the main competition unit of Berlin International Film Festival last year, was also qualified, and China Taiwanese animation was also successfully selected.
At the same time, the momentum of Japanese animated films is also very strong, with as many as seven works being shortlisted. Mamoru Hosoda’s works and Masaaki Yuasa’s two works, which have attracted much attention, were successfully selected. The winner of the best animation at the Shanghai International Film Festival this year also won the finalist tickets.
So, today, Xiao Dianjun still wants to talk about his own film.
Invincible Destroyer 2: Make a scene on the Internet
Undoubtedly, this film must be the most anticipated animated film of Xiao Dianjun this year, or even one of them.
The previous film was shortlisted for the best animated film of the year, and it was also regarded as the first seed. Unexpectedly, I was finally robbed of this beacon. Of course, Pixar has long been in the arms of "Daddy Di", and it makes no difference who they take.
After a lapse of six years, "Invincible Destroyer 2" has returned this time, and the battle is very big. This time, the king of destruction still didn’t stay idle. He didn’t want to stay in the video game world, but took the naughty girl Winnipeg to the unknown and exciting virtual network world.
In addition to looking forward to this story, I was shocked by the copyright of "Daddy Di". Years ago, Warner’s live-action movies have made many viewers high. This time, it is finally the turn to hold countless big IPS (Pixar animation, Marvel Comics series, Star Wars series, Fox … … ) Disney.
It’s just that in a short notice, all kinds of familiar figures have been counted quickly. Disney princess terrier was once played badly.
Disney has never really been afraid of showing copyright or anything.
How can this "noisy" method make Xiao Dianjun not expect it? Just sit here and wait for the show.
Superman story 2
Among the top ten private animations of Xiao Dianjun, there is a position that it can never be shaken. So I’m actually a little disappointed with Superman Story 2, but on the whole, it still has a little surprise that is very worthy of praise. Douban’s evaluation of 8.0 points may prove it.
In the previous work, images were used to discuss "whether Superman should be banned by law", which is what The Avengers series has been used to discuss. But in this part, the screenwriter made some changes, added the topic of female consciousness and family relationship, and changed to discuss Superman’s image public relations.
In this film, Superman’s youngest son, Jack-Jack Parr, began to play the leading role, and his super power became his own cute point. Several interactions with Superman became a good joke in the film. On his lawn, Xiaojie fights raccoons with his super power, which can be said to be the biggest highlight of the whole film, with a little cult drama, and it is also obviously the author consciousness implanted by director Brad Bird.
At present, Superman Story 2 once again challenges the superhero live-action movie from multiple perspectives of narrative and conception.
Grinch the Green Haired Monster
Minions missed the animated film market this year, but don’t worry, the recent strong lighting and entertainment will not be easily missed.
This is his work this year. The film is based on Dr. Seuss’s famous best-selling children’s book. The story is very simple. The protagonist is a green monster Grinch. Because he hates Christmas very much, he steals all the Christmas presents to prevent people from celebrating Christmas. Finally, an innocent little girl melted his indifferent heart.
In recent years, the animation stories of lighting and entertainment are very simple, but they can always create a cartoon image of "selling cute and shameful". I wonder what little cute things will be in the Grinch? In recent years, lighting and entertainment have always loved to implant cartoon images of past films in their works. Will Minions, who is absent, show himself in a special way?
However, what is most worth looking forward to is that the role of Grinch in this animation is voiced by our "Juan Fu" benedict cumberbatch, and this sexy voice alone is enough to be included in the list.
Isle of Dogs
It’s said that Oscar owed a little golden statuette, and it’s time to pay it back this time. At that time, wes anderson also narrowly lost to Pixar Animation. It seems that it is not easy to take away the golden statuette from Pixar.
No, wes anderson returned with Isle of Dogs.
The film won the best director at the Berlin International Film Festival years ago. In the process of film creation, director wes anderson drew lessons from Japanese director Akira Kurosawa and his films in the 1960s. The image of Mayor Kobayashi in the film was created with reference to toshiro mifune, who starred in several films of Akira Kurosawa.
This film is narrated by chapters, and the whole film is divided into five parts: the prologue, the pilot, the search point, the meeting point and the lamp of Artarit. The pace of the film is fast, and the director also interspersed several flashbacks in it. If you don’t know the structure of the film in advance, it is easy to get confused. And this is precisely the disadvantage of this way of telling.
Of course, this film still retains wes anderson’s aesthetic style praised by fans. At the same time, in addition to composition, the colors in wes anderson’s films are also quite eye-catching, and bright colors have become the standard of films.
This film is a masterpiece of wes anderson’s past. Perhaps the college should give more encouragement to this kind of works.
Great world
The finalist of this film is a surprise to the audience in China. Director Liu Jian’s second work was shortlisted for the main competition unit of the Berlin International Film Festival in 2017, and it was also well received at that time.
The most commendable thing about the film is that in the current China film creation, in fact, there are very few films that can portray the city and people in which they live so accurately, and at the same time, they can be portrayed in the form of animation. In addition, this animation shows the public that besides the industrialized animation market, there is also a craftsman like Liu Jian, who can take up as many as 20 positions as director, painter, screenwriter and dubbing in an animation.
Just like at the beginning of the animation, the director quoted Tolstoy’s words, "Spring is still spring." For directors, this market is just spring. No matter what the final result is, at least there is another one worth looking forward to in the future.
On the road to happiness
This animation can be said to be very ambitious. With the growth of a little girl, it has strung together the changes of China and Taiwan Province. Of course, the film is also very attentive. At the beginning, the director wanted to make a live-action film directly based on his own story, but from the perspective of funds and production, it was processed into an animated film.
Animation won the best animated film, the Million Awards and the Audience’s Vote Award at this year’s Taipei Film Festival, and was also strongly shortlisted for the best adapted screenplay and the best animated feature film at the Golden Horse Award.
Generally speaking, this animation brings a little personal feelings and combines more big patterns, but at the end of the story, it brings you back to the real family life. Perhaps the so-called "happiness road" is not just the "happiness road" where the movie takes place, but also really conveys that kind of warmth and happiness.
Morning flowers and evening vows
Director Mari Okada can be said to be a screenwriter who has attracted much attention in Japanese animation in recent years. This transformation to be a director is also very stressful for her, but fortunately she chose a very familiar story.
When the film was released in Japan, it won many praises from Makoto Shinkai, and then won the best animated feature film at the Shanghai International Film Festival. It can be said that the quality is very guaranteed.
It has been rumored that the film is expected to be introduced before, and now there are so many awards, just waiting for the film to be finalized as soon as possible.
Having said that, what films can be shortlisted for the final official list? The official nomination list will be announced on January 22 next year, and the awards will be presented on February 24.
