在X上刷到一个帖子。我希望更多的艺术家向Weir看齐:Do not preach. 别来布道我。
电影电视剧别搞主旋律。颁奖典礼上别高喊zz口号。我来看“你”,是为了看我平时看不到的世界的一部分,为了被娱乐;我对“你”的zz倾向没有半毛钱兴趣。
(机翻在最后)
Project Hail Mary writer Andy Weir on social commentary in books:
"I dislike social commentary. Like… I really hate it. When I’m reading a book, I just want to be entertained, not preached at by the author. Plus, it ruins the wonder of the story if I know the author has a political or social axe to grind. I no longer speculate about all possible outcomes of the story because I know for a fact that the universe of that book will conspire to ensure that the author’s political agenda is validated. I hate that."
"I put no politics or social commentary into my stories at all. Anyone who thinks they see something like that is reading it in on their own. I have no point to make, and I’m not trying to affect the reader’s opinion on anything. My sole job is to entertain, and I stick to that."
"To that end, I also don’t talk about my personal political opinions publicly. I don’t want readers to even know, honestly. I don’t want that in the back of their minds as they read my stuff."
Is this why he has the #1 sci-fi movie in decades?
《拯救计划》作者安迪·威尔谈书籍中的社会评论:
我不喜欢社会评论。真的,我特别讨厌。当我读一本书时,我只是想享受其中的乐趣,而不是被作者说教。而且,如果我知道作者有政治或社会方面的私心,那故事的奇妙之处也就荡然无存了。我不会再揣测故事所有可能的发展,因为我确切地知道,那本书里的世界会合谋来确保作者的政治主张得到证实。我讨厌这样。
“我的故事里根本没有任何政治或社会评论。要是有人觉得看到了类似的东西,那纯粹是他们自己想多了。我没什么观点要表达,也不想影响读者对任何事情的看法。我唯一的任务就是娱乐,而且我始终坚守这一点。”
为此,我也不会公开谈论自己的政治观点。说实话,我甚至不希望读者知道。我不希望他们在阅读我的作品时,脑海里还想着这些。
这就是他能拍出几十年来最火科幻电影的原因吗?
