影评:

  1. Cavallette/Grasshoppers/蝗虫(8分46秒)
    看了几遍把这八分钟的历史整理一下,不过有些地方还是不太明白。
    0:22石器时代,火的争夺
    不知为何作者用火而不是食物来表达,火是代表了一种科技还是生产资料?
    0:58埃及战争,太阳神与阿努比斯(胡狼)的信仰之争
    1:40海伦和帕里斯,特洛伊战争
    但是特洛伊战争不是以海伦和帕里斯被砍头开始,那个糟老头国王又是谁,和希腊战士战斗的战士装备了长矛、弓箭,长剑。如果说是希波战争,它不是以爱情导火索的
    2:14罗马帝国,凯撒的征服与掠夺
    王座,鹰,罗马式头盔,很明显地表明着罗马帝国
    2:56中东人民反抗罗马暴政
    3:02耶稣诞生,基督教成立
    3:18中世纪日耳曼的内部矛盾(这里不好理解)
    王位之争顺序是:1、手持十字架的加冕国王2、国王被囚禁并被取代3、一个矮子夺权,前国王被刺杀4、女王夺权
    这段无论是英法战争还是罗马皇帝的争夺都不太好解释,不过后者更有可能,但女王的来历是什么呢?
    3:44 教皇出现,审判女王为魔鬼,火刑伺候,圣歌奏响,天主教的严酷统治开始
    4:04火势蔓延,基督教世界崩塌
    4:15伊斯兰世界拒绝基督徒传教
    4:32十字军东征,被击退
    4:43蒙古崛起
    4:51中国长城(做得真猥琐)
    5:03蒙古入主中原(欧洲呢?)
    5:29欧洲发现新大陆,以火器屠杀美洲土著(阿兹台克,玛雅等活心祭祀)
    5:52英国议会
    6:00苏格兰起义,引发英国资产阶级革命,英王查理一世被处死
    没有腿,拉小提琴啃骨头的狗脸人是什么?
    6:10法国大革命,美国独立(其间有马赛曲等著名音乐可惜我不认识)
    6:23拿破仑率法军与俄交战(喀秋莎作背景音乐)
    6:34美国逼迫印第安人西迁,“血泪之路”,高中的英语课文
    6:41世界大战爆发,欧洲战场德国以军国主义和坦克横行,但过于B了遭雷劈了,覆灭,囧。。。
    6:56山姆大叔(还抽着雪茄穿着马靴)发现日本独霸东亚利益以及太平洋势力,太平洋战争爆发(中间的小娃娃亚洲势力)
    7:12越战爆发,米国大兵跳出来干翻越南小娃娃还喊句“touch your freedom”
    7:15米国大兵鬼畜,被伊斯兰人民吊死(喊出了新月与弯刀的圣战口号)。。。
    7:21阿拉伯人摧毁伊斯兰势力
    7:23苏俄扩张在中东势力
    7:28苏俄被以色列犹太人干翻
    7:31以色列遭自杀汽车袭击
    7:33olp(据说是巴勒斯坦解放运动)蹦出
    7:35联合国军为夺取石油资源利益强推之
    7:37神奇的和平主义土著出现赶走联合国军
    7:40 3K党出现
    7:44不知道什么东西
    7:47 UWM组织
    7:51 PKY组织
    7:55 LSD-迷幻药(真迷幻的缩写)
    7:57 FZOSK组织
    之后是循环的冲突
    现代的这些冲突看不太明白,貌似那些组织的缩写是意大利文。。。。
    8:20 人类文明的最终意义(豆瓣高人指点)。。。

    错漏的地方还请指教,多谢了(尤其是中世纪的确切阐述)
  2. 人类的历史就是这么简单:因为不同的文化理念、信仰而打杀个不停。以前是,现在是,以后仍将是!因为这是人性,否定了人性就是否定了人本身。呵呵,想起了一句话:“人类一思考,上帝就发笑。” 你思考个屁啊,归根到底就那么点屁事,但我们每个人又都处在社会大众的洪流之中,逐渐偏离生命真正的意义。
  3. 在八分多种里面一直沉浸在对各种符号和世界史的回忆中,相同的模式,一群人把另一群人废了,历史就是这样。

    模式很重复。看了前两个后面就没有悬念了,无非是等着作者列举符号而已。

    最后才是关键,如果就是人类全都躲猫猫了就没意思了。在镜头缩向字幕的一霎那,看到了蚱蜢在进行相当美丽的交尾运动。

    天啊,经典的60年代标志:Make love, not war.

    然后我决定上床了,想 War 还不是为了女人。原来大家都直直也未必是好事情啊。然后我就睡觉了。
  4. Plot
    In the course of 9 minutes, Grasshoppers takes us through the following parts of history:

    The discovery of fire, and the development of tools and weapons, which Modern Man uses to remove the threat of the larger but less intelligent Neanderthal;
    Ancient Egypt: an animal worshipper clashes with a sun-worshipper;
    A tragedy in Ancient Greece, where a dancer and a musician fall in love and are killed by a king, who is then attacked and defeated by the Roman Empire;
    The Roman Empire, represented by a single "Caesar-like" figure, who repeatedly sends troops off to plunder the cultures at the fringes of the empire, until they eventually come back to defeat the now lazy, unprepared later Empire. The birth of Jesus Christ is also alluded to, but it only distracts the warring parties for a split second;
    The continual fight for supremacy between the monarchies of medieval Western Europe;
    The rise of Islam, leading eventually to the Crusades;
    Genghis Khan's siege of China, and the construction of the Great Wall;
    The Spanish conquest of the Americas;
    The French Revolution;
    The British/French Wars (possibly the wars of the First and Second Coalition);
    The American Revolution;
    The Napoleonic Wars;
    The United States' systematic removal of Native Americans;
    World War II and Nazi Germany, which leads to the Nuclear Age (a bright white flash from off-screen vaporizes goose-stepping Nazis, though not a literal occurrence, like many events in the cartoon, a metaphor for the fact that the atomic bomb effectively ended WWII, and ushered in a frightening new era);
    Recent years, up to the present day (1990, the year of the cartoon), which encompasses the Cold War, the Vietnam and/or Korean Wars, and the continual skirmishing that occurs still today, between all manner of nations, organizations, and individuals.
    As the centuries (and later decades) pass, the pace of the animation grows gradually faster and more frantic.

    At the beginning and end of the cartoon, and occasionally in between vignettes, the cartoon abandons the struggles of humanity to focus briefly on a shot of grass growing and insects buzzing over the ruins of previous battles. In the final shot, the camera finally zooms in tighter on the grass to allow us to glimpse two grasshoppers happily mating.
