Umbono wangaphambi kweSwayzeUCarole Segal / uSyfy Wamkelekile kwixesha lesibini lokuphinda Amagqirha. Ndiye ndaziqhelanisa nokufundisa ngomnwe inyanga yonke kwaye ndikulungele ukuntywila.
Masikhuphe le ndlela kwangoko: lo mboniso awufani neencwadi kwaye kulungile. Thatha umoya onzulu kwaye uphinde uphinde kwakhona: lo mboniso awufani neencwadi kwaye kulungile. Ngokwam, ndaziva ndinesidingo sokuyibhala nge-Bart Simpson-style ebhodini ide itshone, kodwa ngoku ndiwufumene ngokupheleleyo umxholo, Amagqirha kwi-SyFy iye yaba ngumboniso owonwabisayo ngokungapheliyo.
Kwiveki ephelileyo, kwiHolo loMlingo pop eBrooklyn ngaphambi kokuba kudlalwe inkulumbuso, ndiye ndathetha nombhali uLev Grossman noHale Appleman, odlala indawo kaEliot, ndabuza uGrossman ukuba kunzima na kuye ukubona utshintsho phakathi komboniso kunye iinoveli. Ungothuka, utshilo. Izinto zebali akukho nzima ukuziyeka. Izinto ekubonakala ukuba zibalulekile kum ngakumbi ngabalinganiswa, abothusayo ngokumangalisayo kumdlalo. Isizathu sokuba ndibhalele Amagqirha ndandigula ngezinto ezininzi ezithandwayo, kwaye andizange ndicinge ukuba umlingo uziva uyinyani kwakhona. SO ndiye ndazama ukuguqula uninzi lwezi clichés kangangoko ndinako. Uloyiko lwam yayikukuba babeza kuphinda babuyiselwe, kwaye sibuyele kwilizwe elithandekayo lekhathuni, kodwa akunjalo. Benza umsebenzi olunge ngokwenene wokugcina umda kumdlalo.
Ewe, xa uzifundile iincwadi, ungazibamba iziqhulo ezijolise kuwe-elona candelo lililo lomboniso kukwazi ukwenza iziqhulo zemeta ezingenamthungo. (Owona mzekelo ndiwuthandayo: ilayibrari eseNorlands ethetha namagorha ethu. UQuentin, uAlice, uPenny, uEliot, noJanet, igama lam nguMargo, Ngeli xesha.)
Ngaphandle: UMargo / uJanet uya esiba kude kwaye nomlinganiswa endimthandayo kulo mboniso. Umlingisikazi wehlobo u-Bishil ulunge ngokupheleleyo ukudityaniswa kwabasesichengeni kunye ne-badass emvumela ukuba abaleke nayo yonke imigca ehlekisayo kwaye ahlala eqhekeza udonga lwesine.
Ixesha lesibini livulwa eFillory, umhlaba wobugqi ogcina uvumela amaMagic ukuba aphile ngokonwaba kwesiseko sawo: kuya kwenzeka ntoni ukuba iqela lama-2017 amashumi amabini ananye lithunyelwe eNarnia? Ngaba kuvakala kumnandi kuwe? Kufuneke i. Qalisa ukubukela iMilingo ukuze sonke sikwazi ukuthetha ngayo kunye kwaye sidlale ukutshata, uFuck, Bulala noQuentin, uEliot, kunye noPenny (Bulala, Tshata, Fuck, ngokucacileyo).
Useto lwefashoni kumabonwakude lunokubonakala luhle ngokwenene. Ukuba uke wambona isiqendu sikaGqirha Ngubani, uyazi ukuba kuthatha ukubhala nguNeil Gaiman kunye nokuzibophelela ngokupheleleyo kwabadlali abaqeqeshiweyo baseNgilani ekufundiseni ukukhusela izilo-mali ezisezantsi ekuhlaleni kwiinkampu ezipheleleyo. Ke xa ndithetha oku, ndiyathetha ngegunya elipheleleyo lomntu oye wahlupheka ngesabelo sakhe esifanelekileyo se-CGI eyoyikekayo: Amagqwirha akhangeleka emhle. Nokuba yeyiphi indibaniselwano yesikrini esiluhlaza kunye neeseti eziyinyani eziyileleyo, umphumo awunamsindo.
Oko kwathiwa, masingene kwisiqendu sangempela.
Kuqala sifumana uncedo olukhulu ngaphambili ukuze lusikhumbuze ngencopho yexesha loku-1: abantwana bakaBrakebills noJulia baya eFillory kwaye bathumele ikrele elinokubulala iRhamncwa (uEliot kufuneka atshate ukuze ahlawule, kwaye kuvela ukuba Inkosi ephezulu yeFillory. Yonwaba!); UAlice usela isidoda senkunzi yegusha ukuze afumane amandla amakhulu ukuze akwazi ukulwa Isilo esijika sibe nguMartin Chatwin ogqibela ngokukhaba iidonki zakhe, ebulala uAlice noEliot noMargo banqumle izandla zikaPenny kuba uJulia uyabangcatsha. Waye wadlwengulwa nguthixo wamaqhinga ogama linguReynard the Fox kwaye wazilungelelanisa noMartin Chatwin ukuze amncede abulale uReynard.
Ukuphefumla nzulu. Ndisenam?
Isiqendu esifanelekileyo siqala ngeQuentin ebaleka ehlathini ukufumana uncedo ngelixa umculo onzima we-techno entsha-wavy udlala ngasemva. Oku kusinika umbono wethu wokuqala wokwenene kaFillory: iinyanga ezimbini, iilollypops ezikhula ematyholweni, kunye… nendlu yesonka sejinja. Ukujika igqwirha (kulungile, ngakumbi igqirha kunye nomdla wegadi) ngaphakathi kuya kunceda, kodwa kuphela igutyana legazi likaQuentin. Akabalulekanga ngokwenyani-enyanisweni, andiqinisekanga ukuba ukhonza nayiphi na injongo kuba, kwangoko emva kokuba uQuentin enike igazi, kuyakufika ukuba akaludingi uncedo lwakhe konke konke. Mhlawumbi ufuna ukuqinisa umbono we-Fillory kumbukeli: ukuba ngaba iintsomi ozifunda xa wawusengumntwana zazinyani-zombini zibi kwaye zimbi ngakumbi kunokuba ubucinga. Sijongeka nje sihlekisa, yinto ethile yengxelo yethesisi yezilwanyana ezahlukileyo zikaFillory.
Kodwa, njengoko benditshilo, ngaphambi kokuba igqwirha lincedise, abahlobo bakaQuentin abawileyo bavele… bevela, bephila kwaye bengonzakalanga kwaphela, i, uh, isidoda esaselwayo nguAlice ngaphambi kokumnika amandla awoneleyo okuvusa wonke umntu. Kukulungele okuncinci, ngokuqinisekileyo, ukubingelela konyoko bekukhusela lonke eli xesha, Harry! kwaye, hee, bamfumana njani ngokungacwangciswanga uQuentin owayesandula ukuqhuba ngokungalawulekiyo ehlathini? Ukubuyela kubo bonke abalinganiswa bephila kwaye bephilile (singasathethi ke nangoku ukuba uMartin Chatwin usayikhaba) ikwasishiya nesiphelo esinye esifutshane apho bekufanele ukuba sikwezi ncwadi okwangoku. Kodwa, kunjengokuba benditshilo ngaphambili. Yithathe, okanye uyiyeke. Konwabele ukukhwela kulo mboniso mhle malunga nomlingo.
Ke amaqhawe ethu avuswe ngomlingo (minus izandla zikaPenny) abuyela kwiqula lomlingo, umthombo wabo bonke ubugqi, indawo ekhangeleka ngathi yiofisi apho uChristopher Plover, umbhali weencwadi zeNarnia ezifana neFillory, wayehlukumeze uMartin Chatwin. Imithombo yemilingo iphelelwe ngamandla, oko kuthetha ukuba abanakufikelela kuwo nawaphi na amandla ebonakala ngathi izakuba yingxaki enkulu kamva, ngakumbi kwihlabathi apho, njengoko uMargo esitsho, uyavuya ukunqumla amaqhawe akhe kwisiqingatha sonyaka (Ukuba singamagorha. Singakhululeka.) Hayi indlela endikuthanda ngayo, Margo!)
Ngaphandle komlingo wentwasahlobo, amaqhawe ethu aya kwinqaba yenqaba ukuzama ukufumana umlo wedabi uRupert Chatwin awabonisana nawo ukuze aphumelele iMfazwe yaseBulge. Ilungele uRupert Chatwin.
Kuba uPenny akakabi nazandla, ubeka umlambo wokuphilisa, ehamba noMargo kuba upholile kwaye ulumkile kwaye kufuneka abe kuyo yonke indawo. Emlanjeni, uPenny izandla zakhe zithungelwe emzimbeni ngumntu ongamaziyo onobubele obonakala ngathi ulingana noFillorian njengomntu olungiselela igumbi lokuhlambela. Kwaye kuyasebenza! (Ukusuka kum amanqaku am: izandla zikaPenny zibuyile-oku kukuphinda kubhalwe incwadi kuba ngoku uPenny uyatshisa.)
Kodwa, ewe, kuba akukho nto inokuba lula, umntu ovalela kwigumbi lokuhlambela uthuka izandla zikaPenny kuba khange avume. Izandla zikaPenny ziyasebenza kwaye emva koko azisebenzi sele zibonakala ngathi yimixholo ekudala ikho kwaye iyacaphukisa kweli xesha lonyaka. Nje… uyazi, shit okanye uphume embizeni ngokubhekisele kuPenny onezandla ezinokwenza umlingo okanye hayi.
Emuva kwihlabathi lokwenyani, uJulia unomanyano olungathandekiyo noMartin Chatwin. Uya kumnika i-blade yokubulala ukuba uyamnceda abulale uReynard. UChatwin wabafaka kwindawo yomngxunya webhola kwindawo yokutyela yabantwana, ewela kwitrope entle enengxaki: umntu owahlukunyezwa njengomntwana ukuba abe yinqila engaqhelekanga yena. Nangona uChatwin ebanga ukuba, umsulwa ngokugqibeleleyo, andikwazi kunceda kodwa ndive ukuba umboniso wawusenga into ethambekisayo ephuma kula maNgesi sele ekhulile, enxibe kakuhle athe aba sisilo esingalawulekiyo sokuxhaphaza abantu ngokwesini ngenxa yokuba wehlelwa kukuhlukumezeka ngokwesondo.
Nangona iRhamncwa ezincwadini laliyinto eyoyikisayo iblukhwe, kwaye umboniso wamnika intshayelelo eyoyikisayo: ukungena kwigumbi lokufundela elinomkhenkce, ubuso bugcwele amanundu, nokukrazula iliso likaDean Fogg, ngoku uMartin Chatwin ufana nomcebisi wobubi UJulia. I-Sillier, ebonakala ngathi ithembekile, kwaye ithambekele ngakumbi kwezomculo. Ngaphandle kokuthandabuza kukaJulia, uChatwin uthatha umthunzi wakhe ukuze ambonise ukuba bunjani ubomi obungcono ngaphandle kweemvakalelo. Sifunde ntoni malunga nokuthemba abantu esingabaziyo, uJulia?!? Ndikhwaze esikrinini. Kutheni le nto emthemba lo mntu ukhohlakeleyo? Ukanti… xa emxelela ukuba ayibuyise, uyayenza. Hm. (Ezincwadini, ngaba ndiphosakele, okanye uReynard uthathe umthunzi kaJulia?) UMartin uxelela uJulia ukuba akukho luzuko ngokuzibulala ngenxa yentlungu, ethi zonke izinto ziqwalaselwe, isandi esihle. Wayekade eqhele ukubethwa ngenkohlakalo kwaye ngoku u… icebo elithozamisayo? Ndicinga ukuba siza kubona.
Emva kolunye uhlolisiso olulula ngokungenakwenzeka kumahlathi eFillorian, iqela lemigulukudu lonke libuyile kwaye liwela ibhulorho yomnyama ukuze ibange izithsaba zabo njengookumkani nookumkanikazi baseFillory (bamiselwe, ndingongeza, isandi sokubetha).
Kodwa, njengazo naziphi na izinto zakudala ezingasekhoyo ekubalulekeni kwazo, zigadwe ngumkhweli wamandulo. Iqela lemigulukudu kuya kufuneka liphendule i-trivia ukungqina abantwana babo boMhlaba. Ngukumkani ophakamileyo kuphela oyakubamba iimpendulo entliziyweni yakhe.
Umbuzo wokuqala? Yeyiphi inkqubo eyaziwayo yaseMelika kumabonwakude uTim Daly.
Yena-wayekwiinkqubo ezininzi zeTV, uAlice deadpans.
Umbuzo olandelayo: Lo ungatshatanga uqhutywa yinzala yabantu abadumileyo.
Mfondini, ayicacanga lonto, uKumkanikazi uMargo uthi (uhlala engukumkanikazi.)
Nje ukuba incebiso inikwe (iBeach Boys), uAlice noMargo bayifumana kwangoko: 'Bambelela,' nguWilson Phillips.
Kodwa owona mzuzu ubalaseleyo kuyo yonke indawo ezukileyo uyenzeka xa uEliot evolontiya ulwazi lakhe ngoPatrick Swayze. (Uyazi ngoSwayze? Ithi le knight yakudala ingakholelwa.)
U-Eliot ukhulula ibhatyi yakhe, wenza i-monologue efanelekileyo engcolileyo kwilizwi eliqinileyo leSwayze, kwaye lisemthethweni: inkosi ephezulu yaseFillory izibonakalisile.
Nje ukuba bathweswe isithsaba, uQuentin uthetha u-Alice ekuboniseni amandla akhe ngokudibanisa umthi, kwaye bayazenza nangona uAlice ethembisa ukuba ababuyanga ndawonye. Lonwabele ixesha lakho elibolekiweyo, abantwana.
U-Eliot uqala ukuqhuba ubukumkani ecaleni komfazi wakhe we-Fillorian awatshata naye kwisizini ephelileyo, kwaye, kuba eyinkosi ephezulu, ngekhe abuyele kunye nabahlobo bakhe kwi-Brakebills ukuya kufumana iincwadi zomlingo obusele uthathiwe kwivenkile yezixhobo .
Ixesha lonakele kwaye alikho mgceni phakathi koMhlaba noFillory-uEliot (kufanelekile) unovalo lokuba abahlobo bakhe bayamshiya ukuba abuyele eMhlabeni kwaye nokuba ziintsuku nje ezinokubadlula, kungangamakhulu eminyaka kuFillory kwaye Ndizokufa ndedwa, ndilinde ukubuya kwabahlobo bakhe. Ngumzuzu omnandi, onentliziyo ebuhlungu, kodwa andikwazanga ukuzibuza ukuba kutheni bengenakushiya nje uMargo naye. Masibe nomboniso opheleleyo kaEliot noMargo oqhuba uFillory.
U-Elliot uyasokola ukulungelelanisa ukuyeka yonke into azakhele yona, kwaye kakhulu angathanda ukubuyela ngexesha kwaye ahlale kwindawo yakhe ekhuselekileyo yeebhuleki, utshilo uAappleman. Ke luhambo lokufuna ukubuyela emva, kwaye ngaloo nto, ukufumana uxanduva lwakho lwabantu abadala.
Kuyi-glib kwaye kuyonqena ukuthelekisa yonke into engacacanga ye-dystopian okanye i-fantasy villain kumongameli wethu wangoku, kodwa kukho umsonto wento efana naleyo iMelika ibikhe yahlangabezana nayo kulo mboniso wefantasy: bakummandla ongakhuselekanga njengoko babecinga ukuba kuya kuba njalo. Indalo iphela ayimiselwanga ngebali elicocekileyo. Amaziko-e-Fillory, e-Brakebill, omlingo ngokwawo-aqaqambe kakhulu kunokuba umntu wayenokulindela okanye alindele kwaye amaqhawe ethu ashiyeka eyoyikeka kwaye enolwazi olunzulu lokuba akukho mntu uzayo oza kubasindisa. Ukuba asiyiphathi le nto, ayisayi kuphathwa.
Ndizonwabisa kakhulu ndibukele Amagqirha Ndiyathemba ukuba nawe unjalo. Mandikubobe kwixesha elizayo!
