Superjail: That's about your life.

To get to the point, I have heard the name of this cartoon a long time ago, and I can't say that my aesthetic outlook is distorted just because I watch the animation repeatedly. As a senior fan of Mei Man, I am reluctant to watch cartoons like "The Paradise on Earth" and "Mr. Pickled Cucumber", and the style and plot of this Super Prison are equally unacceptable to normal people.

I don't know much about the main characters and characters of this animation. adult swim comes from the same family as rick and morty (I shouldn't say that), and it is a late-night animation file, which is not suitable for children. They are all artists. Specifically, they draw cartoons, and sometimes they should smoke marijuana. Most of the characters in this cartoon are sick, their faces are covered with wrinkles and tattoos, and they have not received a good education.

Generally speaking, there are two selling points of American animation, or they are mainly divided into two factions: one is to show off the bottom line, and the other is to provide for the school-age people. This animation is in the former.

The most cruel and horrible prison in the universe-built on an active volcano, there are riots, bloodshed, deaths and even the invasion of other creatures every day, and at night, I have to worry about the warden invading their dreams. Nobody wants to stay there.

Warden, a neurotic man, is actually more inclined to dress like a gentleman with a top hat, but he still has two glasses, which simply like excitement, passion and enjoyment, and rarely consider the consequences. Jared is a manager with depression. He is not a bad person on the surface, but he is still a child in his bones. Alice is the only woman in prison, and her androgen is extremely developed.

Many characters in this animation are basically criminals, who deliberately make themselves ugly and violence can be seen everywhere. I can't point it out clearly here, but they always quarrel over trifles, have no higher education, are single-minded, sometimes unite as one, and sometimes hate each other.

Directors, screenwriters and painters take drugs irregularly. Strong stream of consciousness technique and unparalleled violent aesthetics are combined, and the rapid color change makes eyes ache. Some of the plots of losing consciousness are steam wave aesthetics and retro style, while others are fighting scenes with montages.

and I assure you, it is impossible to tell a philosophical and meaningful story with eleven minutes in each episode. Yes, it basically has neither. It seems that it only tells the story.

so why should I recommend you to watch this?

In my opinion (lest someone say how subjective I am), Super Prison will also exist like this. It is inevitable that the painting is crude, and the meaning conveyed is not in line with positive energy, and it is kept secret. I don't think an adult can understand this animation well, but young people may. I can. VICE is a global media for young people. Its slogan is "The world is sinking and we are partying". Youth doesn't like rigid and prescribed things. Look at those things that have emerged recently. Their meanings are vague and bohemian, and subcultures are on the rise. This animation helps you deeply understand the young people's thoughts: what is their view of the world, what is their purpose, besides hedonism and hippie style, the Renaissance in the 21st century.

Middle-aged people may use it to break the generation gap with their avant-garde children. But you have to endure incomprehensible pain.

2 Cheer up

This animation can't be watched while eating or before going to bed. Watching a super prison is like pumping a tube of stimulant into your vein, or the kind that has not been washed, which makes you instantly ignore the reality. This spiritual transcendence is usually difficult to feel visually, but Super Prison did it.

you can't skip some plots. Because it is always * * * for eleven minutes, it flies with a fast pace, and the plot is simple and rude, interspersed with fierce, grand and vulgar fighting scenes from time to time.

The painter is definitely not interested in the proportion and aesthetic feeling of the human body. The ugly, vulgar, vulgar and lowly art shines here. All the viewers who have seen it may not be interested in this work, but they will be surprised.

3 practical significance

I have said before that an animation aimed at impressing people usually exaggerates some properties of the plot, which is generally a reasonable and interesting brain hole with romanticism and not beyond people's imagination. Such as "Weird Town" and "Little Pony", the painting style will be as soft and simple as possible, which can produce rich and beautiful associations.

But an animation that insults and taunts people is definitely not like this. It will produce enough images that are beyond your imagination and beyond your head. Violence here shoots into your skull like bullets on the battlefield, passes through your reticular structure, pineal gland and pons, and even obvious irony is hard to see.

but it evokes sympathy that I haven't felt for a long time. Those trivial things in society didn't let me have a good look.

This animation contains many social ailments and personality defects, and many criminals have lost their childhood. Either his parents abandoned him, or his father was an alcoholic and didn't care about his children at all. Discrimination against homosexuality and social discrimination against class and race, these ugly criminals of all kinds were transported to this prison. For them, this is their home. There are their families, friends and movies here. Those yellow clothes make everyone equal and respectable. These characteristics are not prominently expressed by the director, but more are just the needs of the plot. Therefore, people will have an illusion that this is just an irrelevant existence. But that's not the case.

All the children in this animation will not be hurt.

Many people will die in every episode of Super Prison.

children will be happy when the camera is away from them.

The director treats the adult world like a toilet in a garbage can, and it is dark all around. You can see very dark things on the earth outside the rare prison. Those who express their inner darkness become criminals. (Of course, this is not advocating your crime, the director just put a lot of extreme situations in reality in the animation) Our world is surrounded by filth! At this point, we are not worthy of forgiveness.

Those children who have not yet entered the society are angels. This point is vividly expressed in the animation. After a girl with cancer died, all the people in the prison wept for her. They used to be like that. They should have been fatherly and motherly, and should not be abused and abandoned. Maybe they will have children, too-of course, all this is just a luxury fantasy.

so, this animation is still very positive in its bones.

Of course, for adult swim, the animation that young people yearn for may not be enough to be expressed by Super Prison, so we have other things. This series has ended in 214. As one of the two plays selected by adult swim at the beginning, it explains a lot of things well, which is vague and doesn't mean to say it. If it's inconvenient to talk about it, we'll put it in the bloody, drug-taking part. In this way, it has achieved an extremely interesting effect.

finally, the theme song.

The opening song is comin home by cheeseburger. This is a great rock song, and I never jump at the beginning. Its lyrics are the vast majority of what the producers want to express.

life outside is not what it used to be

The life of outside it used to be

You know, the world has become crazy.

you know the world gone crazy

It's not safe to walk on the street

We are getting lost, I know

Oh, we are losing track and I know,

There's only one place to go

I'm coming home! Oh, I'm home!

im coming home,oh im coming home
