"Passengers"-Marriage is a conscious "conspiracy"

After "Passengers" was released, amidst the flood of comments from many sci-fi trolls who shouted that they were "duped", I still think that this is a work worthy of "the list of the best unfilmed scripts in the film industry", because it is not at all A science fiction film! If we have to associate it with "science fiction", we can only say that this is just an ethical romance film set in a "space travel" scenario. The story tells more about issues about men and women, marriage and human nature------Do you understand?

First, let’s describe the synopsis of the story (please beware of spoilers). Jim (played by Chris Pratt) is a technical passenger on the Avalon spacecraft. During the spacecraft's 120-year journey to Space Colony Home 2, he woke up from cryosleep early due to an accident. Realizing that he might have to spend 89 years alone on this giant ship, Jim tried to fall asleep again to no avail, and then tasted the devouring of one's will by a person's loneliness in the universe. Jim, who was on the verge of suicide, made a desperate move. He swayed between moral dilemmas, and the painful suffering finally made him decide to wake up the person he loves: the female passenger Aurora (writer, goddess) (played by Jennifer Lawrence), and the two developed feelings during their relationship. The spark of love. When Aurora discovered that she had been "set up", she suffered a mental breakdown and their relationship was almost frozen.

In the end, the huge disaster of "the operating system of the spacecraft was paralyzed" became an opportunity for the plot to turn. The couple faced a bigger problem-their lives were threatened. Not just themselves, but their 5,000 traveling companions, and the voyage itself. (The above plot was modified from Baidu) In the end, in the process of saving the spaceship, Jim chose to sacrifice himself to save everyone, while Aurora chose to forgive Jim and give up the chance to sleep again. The two lived a happy and legendary life.

Netizens commented that this work is full of "straight male cancer" meaning, which is devastating to people's outlook. In fact, the creator is narrating a correct story from the perspectives of religion, human nature, and ethics. Three views: How should we survive in the boring and long "cage" of marriage. Next, let the author analyze it through several questions.

When Jim accidentally woke up in the spaceship, it was like waking up in the Garden of Eden created by God at the beginning of creation - "I should create a beautiful place for him to live happily." Jehovah thought, very soon Quickly, he created a beautiful garden and named it the Garden of Eden. The Avalon was the Garden of Eden given to Jim by God: plenty of food and water, a luxurious presidential bedroom, high-tech free fantasy experience... When the male protagonist fully enjoys After going through all of this, I slowly realized that the most unbearable thing was loneliness. The Bible records: God was worried about his loneliness, so he thought, "I should create a partner for him, so that his life will be more fulfilling." So God chanted a spell, and Adam fell asleep under the spell. God came to Adam while he was sleeping, took out a rib from his body, and used this rib to create a woman. God named her Eve.

?And Jim, in his loneliness and despair, chose to wake up a companion. This companion was a woman. He wakes Aurora. This is not male chauvinism, nor is it a coincidence. There is some original meaning from religion. Humans are social animals. If they cannot get along with a group, at least they need a man and a woman. And the men and women in this Garden of Eden will also usher in a new era: in fact, without Aurora's courage to support Jim's survival, without Jim and his subsequent heroism to save, the 5,000 people on the spaceship, including them, would not have survived. People will die.

Why did Jim wake up Aurora? It was an inevitable choice under special circumstances. No one can endure loneliness like ants devouring the soul bit by bit. At this time, "looking for a partner" is human instinct and the category of instinct. It can no longer be measured simply by whether it is “moral” or not.

Many people don’t understand why the bartender robot Arthur leaked the secret after agreeing to Jim. They found a scientific and logical analysis on this point on Douban: "The heroine told the bartender "There are no secrets between us." After hearing this, the bartender asked the male protagonist for his authenticity. The male protagonist also indirectly confirmed the female protagonist's words and told the bartender "you heard her". The robot's programming may have felt at that moment that the setting to protect the secret could be lifted."

However, I always believe that there is a profound meaning behind it. Arthur once said that "he is a gentleman." For a gentleman, "keeping secrets" is the norm, and "integrity" should be a gentleman's duty. Criteria - Perhaps in essence, Arthur hopes to see Aurora choose whether she is ready to make peace with Jim based on her true feelings after knowing the truth. He can feel Jim's psychological pressure and hopes that Jim will relieve his heavy psychological pressure. Burden - I don't want to discuss how far artificial intelligence can reach. Arthur is actually equivalent to the "third eye" of this world. I would rather believe that his function is not just a robot, not just a recorder.

As for Aurora being hysterical, hating and even wanting to kill Jim after learning the truth, but finally choosing to forgive, this is not the "Stockholm Syndrome" that is complained about, but based on the second nature of biological instinct.

This is not a stupid emphasis on the superiority of men and the inferiority of women. The character Aurora is actually a very independent woman. She did not live a happy life in her past world, so she decided to change her future. After discovering the truth, her initial value was that Jim was a "murderer who changed the trajectory of a person's life without his permission." Later, she was imprisoned in the swimming pool due to the gravity accident of the spacecraft and experienced it firsthand. "Loneliness" devoured the pain. At that time, she had actually forgiven Jim psychologically. Later, she and Jim worked together to overcome the difficulties. During the emergency crisis of the spacecraft, Jim decided to sacrifice himself. Aurora had realized that what is most important is not revenge. and contradiction, but love, cherish everything you have, live and love well.

Looking back at the process of human beings seeking partners, women seem to always be passive. Physiologically, women are more likely to be "guided" by men. It is not shameful to follow the design of the Creator. Women's following is in line with the biological world. Balanced development does not mean inequality between men and women, but that women must exist harmoniously with men and even the world on the basis of obeying their secondary sexual characteristics.

The movie "Passengers" is a love ethics film set in a science fiction background. From a production perspective, compared with other space science fiction themes, four actors framed the entire story. This film cost The cost and technical resources must be less, reflecting a "small space and big pattern".

The world in which Jim and Aurora met and got along was a reflection of all the men and women who fell in love with each other. In marriage and love, men are predatory animals, and women are mostly passive acceptors of love. This is not a discussion of inequality between men and women. I always believe that vigorously promoting "female rights" itself is a manifestation of women's weakness - so it is a good practice Yes, it is to recognize women's secondary sexual characteristics, recognize women's weakness and limitations, and also recognize women's weakness and limited power, and truly "femalely" dance with men's sex and talk to the world.

In the world of marriage, white lies and unspeakable secrets are essential. How many couples swear in their wedding oaths to give each other a lifetime of happiness, but the truth of life is a gorgeous robe, and those trivial matters are very important. May become lice and patches on the inside of the robe. If you have experienced quarrels, lies, or even marital betrayal, and whether you choose to continue to work hard on your marriage and relationship, then you are Aurora in "Passengers."

No one will be lucky enough to always wear Cinderella's glass slipper, because that chai rice cannot cope with life. When difficulties come, you can't run fast in it; back to the essence of life, we will not even have "Space Passengers" "The ideal world created in "", but it will definitely encounter a disaster comparable to "a spaceship crash". Believe me, this is all true. Therefore, if you are "Aurora", can you handle gender issues with female tolerance and wisdom, can you sign your familiar name on the marriage contract tacitly, can you have sex with "Jim" Solving the challenges given by the God of destiny will be a necessary condition to determine whether you can continue to live a happy life.

Of course, another necessary premise is that you are still on a spacecraft that can (worth) saving. (End)
