U-2012 wawungunyaka omkhulu kuJoss Whedon . Buffy iVampire Umbulali yayineminyaka eyi-15, eyakhe Abaphindezeli wazisa indalo yeCinematic Marvel kunye, kwaye ngaphezulu kwayo yonke enye into, imovie encinci ye-indie eyoyikisayo awayeyiphethe kunye nomkhuseli wakhe uDrew Goddard, Ikhabhathi kwihlathi , ekugqibeleni wakhululwa. Ndandineminyaka elishumi nane kwaye ndingenako ukuthetha ngayo nayiphi na into ngaphandle kukaJoss.
Usapho lwam kunye nam sasibukele Buffy ngokwenkolo ihlobo elingaphambili, ngaxa lithile lisebenzisa lonke ixesha lesihlanu ngeveki. Ndizibone ndikwiimpawu zakhe ezininzi. Ekugqibeleni, xa ndiqala ukubhala, ndiza kutsalela kakhulu kwisitayile sakhe. Kude kube namhla, incwadi ebhaliweyo i-Whedonism idla ngokuvela ekubhaleni kwam-i-banter kwiimeko ezinobungozi, abantu befihla iintlungu zabo ngokuhlekisa, ukuyilwa kwamagama afana ne-wiggy.
Kwakungathandabuzeki kwingqondo yam ye-9th-obsessed mind that Joss was a feminist. Ngapha koko, bendicinga ukuba, angafana ... nokuba ungowomfazi olunge ngakumbi kunokuba Mna . Bendingazi phambi kokuba ndibukele Buffy ukuba umnqweno wabasetyhini unokuboniswa njengento emnyama, enobundlobongela, kwaye inzima-ukuba amantombazana angalwa nezilo ngaphandle kokuba zi-laconic, abantu abadala aboyikisayo abanjengoCharlie's Angels okanye uLara Croft. Iifama zeBuffy ziqikelele amandla, ukuba sesichengeni, kunye nobumnyama, isini esigqwethekileyo ngaxeshanye, into endingayaziyo ukuba abafazi bavunyelwe ukuyenza kumabonwakude.
Ikhabhathi kwihlathi yayisoyikeka kancinci ukuba ndiyibone kwimidlalo yeqonga ngelo xesha. Njengomvuzo wentuthuzelo, umama wandithengela enye yezo zinto zibengezelayo, ezikhethekileyo ezibandakanya nesikripthi esipheleleyo. Ndafunda enye into kangangeenyanga. Ingxoxo, enesingqi njengomculo, yayingeyonto intsha kum, kodwa izikhombisi zescreen? Babenemilingo. Xa ekugqibeleni ndibukele imovie, ndababona bethule bethule-ilizwi elihlekisayo, nelokuvukela likaJoss noDrew bethetha naxa abalinganiswa bengekho. Andizange ndibuze nantoni na ababendixelela yona.
Ezo zikhombisi zescreen zibandakanya le nkcazo kaJules, isimumu blonde osweleke kuqala kwifilimu: Upopu [ihempe yakhe] evulekileyo, ayibambe ngokudibeneyo okomzuzwana ngaphambi kokutsala ibra, atyhile amabele, ukubila (kunye Inyaniso yokuba ayisiyonyani) ibenza ukuba babe nomtsalane ngakumbi. Uyancuma esazi, umbono wokugqibelela kwe-hedonistic.
Umntu wam oneminyaka elishumi elinesine ubudala ndifunde izifundo ezibini ezibalulekileyo kule nkcazo:
- Amabele am kufanelekile kodwa angabi bobuxoki.
- Into ayinakuba kukungaziphathi kakuhle ukuba nje iyiparody.
Ewe, uJules akasosidenge ngokwenyani kwaye akakhange abe blonde. Ufaka iinwele zakhe ekuqaleni kwefilimu, kwaye igosa likarhulumente elinomthunzi libetha ikhemikhali kwidayi ukuze licothise ukuqonda kwalo. Ke, xa i-trowel e-rusty ikhonkce isandla sayo emhlabeni njengoko ifikelela kuvuthondaba, yiparody. Xa i-zombie iphosa intloko yakhe enqunyulwe ezandleni zomhlobo wakhe owothusayo, yiparody. Ababhali bachaza amabele akhe ngokweenkcukacha kwigama lumoya. Kunene?
Ndandisemncinci ngokwenene xa ndifunda eso skripthi. Ndaziva ndimncinci kuneminyaka elishumi elinesine ubudala. Khange ndiye kumatheko amaninzi okanye ndanga inkwenkwe. Akuzange kwenzeke kum, ke, ukuba uWhedon noGoddard bekungafuneki ukuba babhale kuloo ngcaciso malunga namabele kaJules ukuze isikhombisi-skrini sisebenze, okanye loo nxalenye yam ndizive ndingcatshiwe ngala madoda ndiwahloniphayo kwaye ethembekileyo.
Iskripthi siya kubude bokwenza ukufa kukaJules kube ngathi kulungile kubaphulaphuli ngalo mzuzu. Okokuqala, akangomntu, ngumbono we-hedonistic wokugqibelela. Itsho njalo apho kwicala lesikrini. Okwesibini kuko konke, sinokujonga ukuzenza amalungisa njengoko amalungu e-arhente angabonakaliyo abukele ukubhubha kukaJules, ebagweba ngelixa kwangaxeshanye bonwabela olu lonwabo lwe-voyeuristic thina. Kukho enye into kule nto yenziwe ngobukrelekrele eyimfama ephindiweyo eyiguqula ibe yimfama kathathu: Iijuli ayisiyo eyokufaka abaphulaphuli, kwaye ke ayisoze ikhuthaze nantoni na kumbukeli ngaphandle kovelwano.
Amalungu abaphulaphuli, ngakumbi abalandeli beWhedon, baya kuthi bachonge uMarty, umntu ogcwala ngamatye obona bonke, okanye uDana, umntu ophikisayo, othuleyo ophambili kwifilimu. I-Jules / Dana dichotomy ayihambi ichazwe kwingxelo. Njengokuba besenza ngefilasher trophies ezininzi kangaka, uGoddard kunye noWhedon bahamba umgca phakathi kokuphawula nokuxhasa.
Ekuqaleni kwefilimu, kufanelekile ukuba siqaphele into yokuba uDana noJules abakabinayo intombi yeentombi / ihenyukazi: UDana usandula ukudibana noprofesa. UJules uyathandana kwaye uthandana nejock, kodwa ababhali bekhusi bayaqinisekisa ukuba siyazi ukuba uphambili. Njengoko ifilimu iqhubela phambili kwaye igosa likarhulumente elibi liqala ukusebenza ngomlingo, i-dichotomy iyaqina. UDana uya esiba nokuzithemba ngakumbi kwaye uneentloni, kwaye iiJules ziguqula ukuba zibe yiphupha lamadoda elilibido. Ungqungqa ngakumbi ngokwesondo kunokuba nabani na ekhululekile kuye, kwaye esenza ngokungathandabuzekiyo enentloko yebhere e-taxidermied ngexesha lomdlalo weNyaniso okanye iDare.
Kwiminyaka elishumi elinesine, ndinokuzoba umgca ocacileyo phakathi kwe-pre-cabin kunye ne-post-cabin Jules. I-pre-cabin Jules yayingumntu endinokuba ngumhlobo naye. I-post-cabin Jules yayisoyikisa. Wayedanisa ngokungathi ngumntu oziqwengayo kwaye wenza ibhere enkulu. Uthando lwam ngaye lwehla kanye ngexesha lokuba afe. Nje ukuba enze njalo, bendinaye uDana, owayenentloni kwaye engonwabanga phakathi kwamakhwenkwe, njengam.
Kwiminyaka engamashumi amabini anesithathu, ndiye ndabona ukuba izinto azikho lula njengoWhedon angathanda ukuba zibenjalo. Ukubukela imovie ngoku, andiboni nto iphosakeleyo ngokuziphatha kukaJules emva kwekhabhathi. Mhlawumbi ugqitha imida yeetshomi zakhe kancinci, kodwa ngokunyaniseka, ibhere elincamisayo luhlobo oluhle kakhulu. Isigqibo sakhe sokweba ehlathini phakathi kobusuku ezinzulwini zobusuku sikwakhiwe njengengcamango eyoyikisayo, kodwa ngokunyanisekileyo, ngubani ongazukubeka emngciphekweni umthi we-oki oyityhefu ukuze enze uChris Hemsworth?
UMarty uxelela uDana ukuba indlela uJules aziphethe ngayo iyamkhupha kuba akenzi njengaye. KuWhedon kunye noGoddard, akunakucingelwa ukuba umntu obhinqileyo angaphambi kwexesha kwaye othambekele ekungqungqeni, umhlobo olungileyo kwaye undiphuza ibhere, uyaphila kwaye umbono oqinisekileyo wokugqibelela. Ewe, bonke abalinganiswa baphela bewela kwezi archetypes ziphelelwe lixesha; yiloo nto. Kwaye wonke umntu uyafa. Yiloo nto, nayo.
Kodwa ngombono wam, akukho mntu unyamezelayo ukuhlaziswa njengoJules, othe wakhuzwa ekhala ekuhlambulukeni amabele akhe ebonakalisiwe, kwaye enqunyulwe ikhusi. Ndandisemncinci kakhulu ukuba ndingayiqonda into yokuba umntu obhinqileyo angangako njengoJules njengoDana, ukuba ukufa kukaJules kwakungumfanekiso otshabalalisayo kum njengoko kwakunjalo kumantombazana athandwayo amhlophe.
Kwakhona, Ikhabhathi kwihlathi Iskripthi esiqinileyo kwaye senza umsebenzi ococekileyo othethelela obu buzaza kunye nogonyamelo olunokuthi luthathwe ngokuba lukhululekile. Njengokuba uHadley noSitterson, amadoda angasemva kwekhethini kwi-arhente, ingcambu kaJules ukuba amkhuphele phezulu kwiscreen esikhulu, uTruman, umfo omtsha ofikayo, ubabuza ukuba indlela abaziphethe ngayo, okanye ubunqunu bukaJules, iyimfuneko na ekusebenzeni. UHadley uthabathe ngobunono uTruman nge-naiveté yakhe. Ayisithi sodwa ababukeleyo, mntwana, utsho.
Kufuneka ugcine umthengi anelisekile, uSitterson wongeza. Uyayiqonda into ebandakanyekileyo apha?
Njengomsebenzi kaJoss Whedon, Ikhabhathi ibandakanya ababukeli bayo kwisikweko esikrelekrele. UWhedon noGoddard nguSitterson noHadley. Umboniso bhanyabhanya odlala kwiscreen… ulungile, ngumboniso bhanyabhanya. Thina, abaphulaphuli, singoothixo abalambileyo ngaphantsi kokucela inkcaso kunye nokuziphatha gwenxa kulonwabo lwethu. Xa ndandineminyaka elishumi elinesine, ndacinga ukuba ukutsala umdla kule patheni indala kuyafana nokutshintsha. Andiyicingi lonto kwakhona.
Omnye unokuphikisa ukuba ayiloxanduva lweefilimu ukutshintsha inkcubeko ezenziwe kuyo, kodwa uJoss Whedon wazenzela igama ngokuzibiza ngokuba ngumfazi, esenza umsebenzi othembisa kungekuphela ukugqabaza nge-misogyny kwifilimu nakumabonwakude kodwa ukudiliza yiyo. Leyo yeyona nto ikhathazayo yile yonke kum: kakhulu ukubhala kukaJoss Whedon kwenza ntoni Ikhabhathi kwihlathi uyala, ukuguqula amabali anetyhefu kunokuba abonise nje indlela abasebenza ngayo ngobuqili.
Andithethi nje ukuba imeko yokuqala in Buffy Apho intombazana entle enxibe isikeyiti yajika yaba yivampire, kodwa apho umsindo kaWillow emhlabeni umguqula abe ngumntu owahlukileyo, apho uSpike afumanisa ukuba oyinyani, ongafezekanga uBuffy ubetha nayiphi na yeengcinga zakhe ze puerile, apho uBuffy abingelela khona obakhe ubomi hayi indoda, kodwa udadewabo. Andiqondi ukuba Ikhabhathi kwihlathi Ulwalathiso lwesikrini ngokuyimfuneko luphawu lokuziphatha gwenxa okanye ukungalunganga kwabasetyhini. Endaweni yoko, ndicinga ukuba sisiphumo sokwaneliseka.
Ikhabhathi ayiyifilimu yobufazi ngendlela efanayo Buffy ngumboniso wamanina. Ke ngoko, i-Whedon ayisiboni isidingo sokuguqula iitropiki zesini ngendlela efanayo. Ngaphandle koko, yena noGoddard basathathela ingqalelo indlela abathe baxhonywa ngayo, akunjalo? Baye baba nguHadley noSitterson-amadoda akrelekrele aqhekeza iziqhulo malunga nenkqubo ekhohlakeleyo neyonakalisayo ngaphandle kokuyicinga kwakhona.
Ndiyakwazi ukuhlalutya ukungaphumeleli kweWhedon kude kufike iinkomo ezingafanga ekhaya (kungekhona kuphela Ikhabhathi kodwa kweyakhe Abaphindezeli umsebenzi, loo nto ingathandekiyo Eda ucacise kutheni oku kuyimpazamo Isikripthi, nangaphezulu), kodwa ngekhe ndiyeke ukuthanda umsebenzi wakhe. Leyo yinxalenye yesizathu sokuba ndifuna kakhulu ukuba azikhulule ngandlela thile, nangona ndingazi ukuba injani. Uninzi lweziko lokurhoxiswa kwengxoxo yenkcubeko ejikeleze intlawulelo. Ngaba umntu onje ngoWhedon angenza ntoni ukulungiselela i-misogynistic undertones, kwaye ngamanye amaxesha i-overtones, emsebenzini wakhe? Ngaba Ngaba ikhona into oyenzayo? Akwaba bendazi.
Ndihlala ndicinga ngesiphelo se Ikhabhathi . UDana unokukhetha-ukubulala umhlobo wakhe uMarty kwaye asindise umhlaba, okanye athi kukukhuphela kwinkqubo kwaye uyitshise yonke. Ukoyike kwaye ukhaliphile kunokuba wayenjalo ekuqaleni kwefilimu, uDana ukhetha i-fuck oyikhethayo. Umboniso bhanyabhanya uphela ngokumangalisayo, uMarty noDana bebambene ngezandla njengoko uMhlaba wahlukana phakathi. Kubukrelekrele, kuyahlekisa, kwaye kuyilelwe ukwenza ii-nerds njengam zihambe, Esihogweni ewe, kodwa ndicinga ukuba inokusebenza njengeplani.
IHollywood ayiqhekezi ncam, kodwa ngokuqinisekileyo zibekho izidubedube mva nje. UWhedon akufuneki ajonge ngaphezulu kunesimo sakhe sokukhokelwa. Uncedisa kwaye abetshe ukutshatyalaliswa kwenkqubo emncedayo, azinze njengoko uMhlaba uqhekeka uvuleke, kwaye umangaliswe kukuvela kwehlabathi elitsha.
