Foreign Flicks 外國(guó)電影
Goron: When I want to look something like moreoriginal, I started to watch some Korean movies orIndian movies from Bollywood, which are reallyinteresting. I was fairly surprised. Try it guysbecause Korean movies are great. Are great.
高倫:我想看原創(chuàng)電影時(shí),我會(huì)選擇韓國(guó)電影或印度寶萊塢的電影,這些電影非常有意思。我感到相當(dāng)震驚。我建議你們也看看,韓國(guó)電影真的很不錯(cuò)。非常不錯(cuò)。
Michael: Korean movies are good but the ones – the typical thing about Korean movies, theyalways end bad.
邁克爾:韓國(guó)電影是不錯(cuò),不過(guò)韓國(guó)電影中有一些典型的情節(jié),而且結(jié)局通常不好。
Win: They always end with cancer.
溫:通常都有癌癥情節(jié)。
Michael: Whereas Hollywood movies, usually there's always like it has a good ending.
邁克爾:而好萊塢電影的結(jié)局都很好。
Goron: And actually, Japanese movies do the same thing. The happy ending is not so granted. And probably many people like them for this reason.
高倫:實(shí)際上,日本電影和韓國(guó)電影一樣。日本電影一般也不會(huì)是圓滿(mǎn)結(jié)局。這可能是許多人喜歡這類(lèi)電影的原因。
Michael: And I would say that even Norwegian movies, they try to, you know, go out from thenorm that movies are supposed to end nicely. And that they have like a shocking ending. It'slike reading a novel with a shocking ending that you wouldn't expect to happen.
邁克爾:甚至挪威電影也在試圖擺脫常態(tài),盡量不出現(xiàn)美好的結(jié)局。他們喜歡令人吃驚的結(jié)局。就好像你看了一本小說(shuō),結(jié)局令你非常震驚,你之前完全沒(méi)有想到。
Goron: Because I think some love movies really have a bad effect on the real life becausepeople are trying to have the same relationship that they see on the movies. And then when it'snot like – love is not like that. It's not that beautiful. It's not like happy ending all the time. And so they...
高倫:我認(rèn)為一些愛(ài)情電影對(duì)現(xiàn)實(shí)生活產(chǎn)生了不好的影響,因?yàn)槿藗儠?huì)試圖尋找電影中呈現(xiàn)的那種戀愛(ài)關(guān)系??墒乾F(xiàn)實(shí)是,愛(ài)情并不是那樣的。愛(ài)情并沒(méi)有那么美好。并不是所有的戀情都有美滿(mǎn)的結(jié)果。所以他們……
Michael: Oh but...
邁克爾:哦,可是……
Win: Yeah.
溫:對(duì)。
Goron: And then – and they are shocked when their real life – they see that they...
高倫:當(dāng)他們的現(xiàn)實(shí)生活不像電影那樣美好時(shí),他們會(huì)感到震驚……
Michael: But not all movies are like that. I mean, even animation movies like you've seen Up, right?
邁克爾:可是并不是所有電影都是那樣的。還有一些動(dòng)畫(huà)電影,你看過(guò)《飛屋環(huán)游記》嗎?
Goron: Well, the plot is like they fall in love, they have like a nice time, and then theproblematic moment. You know, they overcome like the difficulties, and then at the end, they live all together. Happy ending.
高倫:電影情節(jié)都是這樣的,男女主人公墜入愛(ài)河并度過(guò)了一段美好時(shí)光,然后是他們之間會(huì)產(chǎn)生問(wèn)題。接下來(lái)他們克服會(huì)困難,最后他們一起幸福的生活。圓滿(mǎn)結(jié)局。
Win: Well, that's the usual Western discourse of how you produce a movie. But I thinknowadays, movie producers are trying to do a lot of different things from the past.
溫:一般西方電影都是這樣的。不過(guò)我認(rèn)為,現(xiàn)在的電影制作人在努力制作與以前不同的電影。
Goron: Yeah, they try but basically...
高倫:對(duì),他們是在努力,不過(guò)……
Michael: It's interesting to say because maybe why we prefer movies to have good endings andwhy we prefer them to be very harmonic is because maybe we don't want to watch depressingthings. We want the movie to give us a good feeling in the aftermath.
邁克爾:值得思考的是,也許我們喜歡看美好和美滿(mǎn)結(jié)局的電影是因?yàn)?,我們不想看到令人沮喪的事情。我們希望看完電影后能有好心情?/p>
Goron: To give us hope.
高倫:給我們希望。
Michael: Yeah, give us hope, give us like good thoughts. And you know when I watched Up forinstance, which is an animation. When I just saw the first part of the movie, it really – Ialmost cried just watching it. I never cry to an animation film like that before. It was really, really touching.
邁克爾:對(duì),給我們希望和積極的想法。舉個(gè)例子,我在看動(dòng)畫(huà)電影《飛屋環(huán)游記》時(shí),在電影最開(kāi)始的時(shí)候,我看哭了。之前我看動(dòng)畫(huà)電影從來(lái)沒(méi)哭過(guò)。那真的令人非常感動(dòng)。
Goron: Right. I cried to the Lion King. [Laughs]
高倫:沒(méi)錯(cuò)。我看《獅子王》的時(shí)候哭了。(笑)
Michael: When I was younger, I cried to the Lion King.
邁克爾:我小時(shí)候看《獅子王》時(shí)也哭了。
Goron: No, I still cry when I see that.
高倫:我現(xiàn)在看依然會(huì)哭。
Win: I mean it's good to be emotional.
溫:我認(rèn)為調(diào)動(dòng)情緒的電影是好電影。
Goron: Oh yeah. When the movie is good, it's good forever.
高倫:沒(méi)錯(cuò)。如果一部電影是好電影,那就永遠(yuǎn)是好電影。
Hollywood Hits 好萊塢大片
Michael: Okay. Hello, my name is Michael. Next tome I have Goron from Italy and Win from Vietnam. And today we're going to do discuss movies, andspecifically, we're going to discuss about Hollywoodmovies. Do we like Hollywood movies, what is typicalin our own countries and so on? So we're going tostart with you Goron. Please.
邁克爾:好。大家好,我是邁克爾。現(xiàn)在在我旁邊的是來(lái)自意大利的高倫和來(lái)自越南的溫。我們來(lái)討論一下電影,今天我們要聚焦好萊塢電影。我們喜歡好萊塢電影嗎?我們各自國(guó)家的代表電影是什么?首先請(qǐng)高倫來(lái)談一談。請(qǐng)說(shuō)。
Goron: I will say that generally, I like Hollywood movies. They are — if I want to be like withoutthinking anything, you just like lie down on my couch and just eat something and drink andwatch a movie, I would choose like a Hollywood movie. They are pretty fun. They are well done. They spend — they have huge budgets for those kinds of movies. Like the last superheromovies now, there's about Ironman, Spiderman, the Avengers, all those kinds of movies. Thestory or the plot is pretty weak but, you know, you have this like visual effects which theimpact on you is strong. And you just think, or at least I think, "Oh wow, how did they dothat?"
高倫:總的來(lái)說(shuō),我喜歡好萊塢電影。如果我不想思考,只想躺在沙發(fā)上,邊吃邊喝邊看電影,那我會(huì)選擇看好萊塢電影。因?yàn)楹萌R塢電影非常有意思。而且制作精良。他們?cè)谶@類(lèi)電影中投入了巨大的制作成本。比如一些超級(jí)英雄電影,《鋼鐵俠》、《蜘蛛俠》、《復(fù)仇者聯(lián)盟》等等。電影劇本和臺(tái)詞都很弱,不過(guò)視覺(jué)效果非常好。至少我會(huì)想,“哇哦,他們是怎么做出來(lái)的?”
Michael: Yeah. I will give like that example there. You have Avatar. You know, the story is – it's a huge cliché.
邁克爾:對(duì)。我可以給出一個(gè)例子。比如《阿凡達(dá)》。你知道嗎,那部電影講的完全是陳詞濫調(diào)。
Goron: Yeah. We heard about this story for...
高倫:對(duì)。我們聽(tīng)說(shuō)過(guò)這個(gè)故事……
Michael: I knew how the movie would end. But, you know, just going there to see the good 3Deffect that movie had, I think it had good 3D. It really immersed you in this whole world. Youknow, you saw those flying things from the forest.
邁克爾:我們知道那部電影會(huì)如何結(jié)局。不過(guò),就電影的3D效果來(lái)看,我認(rèn)為很不錯(cuò)。它真的讓你沉浸在那個(gè)世界中。你看到森林里各種飛來(lái)飛去的東西。
Goron: Yeah, but if you think, it was recorded by a 3D camera because just the camera was amillion of dollars.
高倫:嗯,想一下,那是用3D攝像機(jī)拍攝的,而一部3D攝像機(jī)就要100萬(wàn)美元。
Michael: Yes, but...
邁克爾:是,不過(guò)……
Goron: The other 3D movies are really crap because everything in post production. So you cantell, "Oh this is 3D?"
高倫:其他的3D電影質(zhì)量很差,因?yàn)樗行Ч际呛笃谥谱鞒鰜?lái)的。你可能會(huì)說(shuō),“這是3D電影?”
Michael: Yes.
邁克爾:沒(méi)錯(cuò)。
Goron: I mean, it's dark and you have to wear glasses. And if you already have glasses, it'suncomfortable. So it's kind of – it sounds – it seems like a technology that's trying to stealyour money.
高倫:我想說(shuō)的是,因?yàn)楹馨?,要?D眼鏡。可是如果你本身就戴眼鏡,那再戴上3D眼鏡會(huì)很不舒服。這看起來(lái)像是一種騙錢(qián)的技術(shù)。
Michael: It was a huge hype, I would say. They were charging more for it, and everyone triedto get on the 3D bandwagon. All the movies went into 3D and it became more normal for thereto be 3D movies in cinemas than normal movies. But yeah, I agree totally with you. They wenttoo far. Avatar was made, you know, from the ground up. The idea was to make it in 3D, andthey really worked hard to provide a good 3D experience. While those other movies, they're...
邁克爾:我會(huì)說(shuō)那是一種宣傳手段。3D電影的票價(jià)更貴,所有人都試圖加入3D潮流。所有電影都被制作成3D電影,電影院上映的3D電影多于普通電影已經(jīng)成為常態(tài)。我完全同意你的看法。他們做得太過(guò)了?!栋⒎策_(dá)》從一開(kāi)始就計(jì)劃制作成3D電影。他們本來(lái)的想法就是將其制作成3D電影,而且他們?yōu)榱颂峁┖玫?D體驗(yàn)非常努力。而其他電影卻……
Goron: I guess...
高倫:我想是……
Michael: It's just not the same.
邁克爾:并不是一樣的。
Goron: Technology is not ready yet, probably.
高倫:可能技術(shù)尚未成熟。
Michael: And I also agree with you that, you know, there is movies that you watch for thestory, which are really good, and you love them. They don't have to be 3D. They don't have tobe and you just focus on the story. And then you have the movies, like – you know, evenTransformers with lots of explosions, lots of effects. It's entertaining in another way.
邁克爾:這一點(diǎn)我也同意你的看法,你去看電影注重的是故事情節(jié),有的電影故事非常好,那你就會(huì)很喜歡。電影不一定要制作成3D的。不必制作成3D效果,你可以只關(guān)注故事情節(jié)。有些電影,比如《變形金剛》,里面有很多爆炸鏡頭,很多視效。那是另一種方式的娛樂(lè)。
Win: I mean it depends on how we look at entertainment. I mean, some days you could – Imean, you want to watch something emotional and romantic, and then some days you justwant some really easy stuff. But I'm just saying that Hollywood isn't all about the blockbusterand effect-heavy movies. I think Hollywood have made some really good thinking, really goodfood for thoughts. And it's not that all bad.
溫:我認(rèn)為這取決于我們?cè)趺纯创龏蕵?lè)。有時(shí)候你想看情感片和浪漫片,有時(shí)候你想看簡(jiǎn)單的電影。我認(rèn)為,好萊塢不都是大片和視效電影。我認(rèn)為好萊塢也制造了很多值得思考、發(fā)人深思的電影。這些電影很不錯(cuò)。
n the Club 夜店
Paul: So Amy, I was talking to somebody the otherday and they told me that you had quite a number oflike interesting little odd jobs. So I'm interested, socould you tell me a bit about that.
保羅:艾米,前兩天我和朋友聊天,他們跟我說(shuō)你做過(guò)很多有趣又奇特的工作。我很感興趣,你能說(shuō)來(lái)聽(tīng)聽(tīng)嗎?
Amy: I don't know how odd they were. I don't know. When I was in university, part time jobs, I used to work in restaurants and—the usual stuff—restaurants, and I think my favorite was working in a nightclub. It was a really, really bignightclub and I used to work on the floor, just kind of cleaning up, looking after all the drunkpatrons. And my first night there was—actually, one of my favorite DJs was on, so that wasgreat. I got to listen to really good music whilst finding money on the floor, and cleaning upafter folks. It was really good.
艾米:我不太清楚有多奇特。我不清楚。上大學(xué)的時(shí)候,我做過(guò)一些兼職,我在餐廳打過(guò)工,就是在餐廳的普通工作,我最喜歡的是在夜總會(huì)的工作。那是一家非常大的夜總會(huì),我在舞池工作,就是做些打掃工作,還有照顧喝醉酒的顧客。我上班的第一晚,正好是我最?lèi)?ài)的DJ在打碟,那真是太棒了。我一邊聽(tīng)好聽(tīng)的音樂(lè),一邊在舞池里找錢(qián),一邊打掃。那真的很不錯(cuò)。
Paul: You found some money on the floor.
保羅:你在舞池找錢(qián)。
Amy: Yeah. You know, it was a busy club. Really, really full, a good couple of thousand peoplein there. And I guess people were doing whatever they were doing and they would drop bigwads of cash. And because I was the person to clean up all the glass bottles, then I would findthe wads of cash on the floor. So it was good. I'd get my wages, I'd get tips, and then I wouldget my own personal tips from finding money on the floor.
艾米:對(duì)。你知道,那是一家受歡迎的夜總會(huì)。顧客有幾千人。我想不管人們做什么,他們可能會(huì)掉下大把現(xiàn)金。因?yàn)槲沂秦?fù)責(zé)清理所有空酒瓶的人,所以我會(huì)在舞池找到很多現(xiàn)金。這很好。我可以拿到工資,可以拿到小費(fèi),還能通過(guò)在舞池找錢(qián)得到額外的小費(fèi)。
Paul: So you must have found like a whole range of different things, like, what else did youfind?
保羅:你一定找到過(guò)很多東西,你還找到過(guò)什么?
Amy: Yeah. A little wraps of things, and then packets of things, yeah. I mean, I had to workhard for the money. It wasn't easy because the place was full, absolutely rammed of people. Everybody is incredibly drunk or whatever and they all just want to dance and have a goodtime. And I have to make sure there's no broken glass for safety reasons, obviously. So I'mpushing my way through the crowd and keeping eyes on the floor constantly with a torch. Andalongside the broken glass that I would sweep up would be, yeah, wads of cash, sometimeslittle purses, little bags, things like that. When I find, like, identification for things—when itwas a purse, I would do the right thing with it, hand it in but it was just a wad up, like a rolledup set of notes, I would just put them in my pocket for me, basically.
艾米:對(duì)。有帶包裝的東西,還有袋裝的東西。我必須要努力掙錢(qián)。這并不容易,因?yàn)槟莻€(gè)地方非常擠,到處都是人。所有人都喝醉了,他們只想跳舞,享受美好時(shí)光。出于安全考慮,我不得不確保那里沒(méi)有破碎的玻璃。所以,我要努力在人群中穿行,用手電在地板上仔細(xì)尋找。而在我要清理的破碎玻璃旁邊,會(huì)有現(xiàn)金、錢(qián)包、小袋子之類(lèi)的東西。我發(fā)現(xiàn)那些東西以后,我要先確認(rèn)一下是什么,如果是錢(qián)包,我就要上交,不過(guò)如果只是一疊錢(qián)或是卷起來(lái)的鈔票,那我就會(huì)放進(jìn)自己的口袋里。
Paul: Yeah, it's difficult to know what to do with cash because you're handing it to someonewho—well, it's cash, isn't it?
保羅:嗯,很難弄清楚應(yīng)該拿現(xiàn)金怎么辦,你要把它交給誰(shuí),那可是現(xiàn)金,不是嗎?
Amy: I know.
艾米:我知道。
Paul: Yeah, yeah.
保羅:對(duì),嗯。
Amy: I remember finding some driving license and student ID, and I took—it was actually thesame university that I went to at the time, and I just took it to uni when I was going during theweek. And I handed it in to make sure that it got back to the owner because you know that'sthe worst thing about when you lose your purse or your wallet. The cash, you can kind of justsay goodbye to. It's a given really that it's going to be gone, but it's your ID and your cards andeverything. It's such a hassle trying to get them back again. So I wanted to make sure thatwhoever drunken idiot dropped them in that club that it got back to their hands safely.
艾米:我記得我還發(fā)現(xiàn)過(guò)駕照和學(xué)生證,證件的主人和我上同一所大學(xué),所以上學(xué)以后我拿著證件去了大學(xué)。然后我把證件上交學(xué)校,確保它能回到失主手中,你知道最糟糕的事就是丟錢(qián)包。至于現(xiàn)金,你只要和它說(shuō)拜拜就好?,F(xiàn)金遲早是要花掉的,可是弄丟身份證和銀行卡就麻煩了。試著找回來(lái)可是很麻煩的。我想確保的是,無(wú)論是哪個(gè)醉酒的白癡把證件掉在了夜總會(huì),這些證件最終能安全的回到那個(gè)人的手中。
Paul: Well, that's nice. So you're a thief with heart then.
保羅:這很好。你是一個(gè)有良心的小偷。
Amy: I'm not a thief. I'm an opportunist.
艾米:我不是小偷。我是機(jī)會(huì)主義者。
Paul: I'm kidding. I'm kidding.
保羅:我開(kāi)玩笑的,我只是開(kāi)個(gè)玩笑。
Amy: It's on the floor.
艾米:那都是掉在舞池里的。
Paul: I'm pulling your leg, Amy. No, I would have done the same.
保羅:艾米,我在和你開(kāi)玩笑。要是我,我也會(huì)像你那樣做的。
