"Angry Birds (Part 1)"
If "Guardians" is a sweet marshmallow, then this animation is probably a chocolate crispy globe with a bit of dust. You can just enjoy the crispy skin, or you can take a look at the world.
So, here is the world that Pancake sees:

Part 1 The belated cake
After going through countless hardships, going to heaven and sea, and suffering from scars, Fat Hong finally arrived at the customer's doorstep seconds before the timeout, and delivered a delicious big cake and a squirrel. It was supposed to be a clown and missed the client's child's birthday party perfectly.
In this plot, which does not contain too much information, there are countless paths leading to the real world.
1.1 Bad experiences overshadowed by bad experiences
The film intuitively shows the difficulty of Fat Hong's journey, and it is easy to embody Fat Hong's emotions. But wait, can the delayed birthday party be ignored? If the film was unfolded from the customer's perspective, perhaps the audience would have a completely different experience.
The long hours of careful preparation, the anticipation that has been hanging on the child's face since a few weeks ago, the cakes that were ordered after repeated selection, the waiting since early in the morning, watching the clock go by minute by minute, not knowing where to wait. I was at a loss for a while, and before I opened the door, I thought I was finally here, but when I opened the door, I saw a playful clown with a smile on his face, and his face was open and honest.
What the…
In their respective worlds, the other's perspective does not exist.
Of course, the film does not make a big fuss here. Judging from the subsequent plot, the client's family is basically the "evil villain" who promotes the development of the plot. This is also the reason why the movie chooses Fat Red’s perspective and exaggerates the difficulties and dangers on the road.
But it was this emphasis and rendering that prompted me to think about this issue.
"If the client's family is evil, then does their birthday party deserve to be delayed?"
This is a question with no right answer. Different answers represent different tendencies.
A bad experience is always a bad experience, but whether this bad experience is deserved or someone should pay the price will have different answers depending on the time, place, people involved, and thinkers.
Noting that the answer may not be unique opens a new door.
And, if this episode does not start with being late, maybe neither Fatty nor the client will expose their shortcomings, and everything will become good memories, harmony and friendship, but this does not mean that it does not contain elements of getting worse.
And what does this mean? It shows that perhaps a considerable part of the good things in life are just coincidences. The distance between them and being terrible is actually not that far away. The same goes for the people around you. Most of them have shortcomings of one kind or another (including yourself), and it is difficult to discover them before they are exposed.
I have seen opinions such as "he has a good behavior" in news reports more than once. Many friends of the perpetrator do not believe that he is actually the perpetrator. My point of view is "You cannot use the good of the past to prove the good of the present, nor can you use the bad of the past to prove the bad of the present." When and where, what causes and consequences, what kind of incidents and outcomes are possible, there is no need to set limits.
Moreover, I am more sensitive to methods that deliberately amplify a certain tendency. This is why when watching a movie, there is so much jabbering at the beginning.
1.2 Vague agreements and quibbles
The client hires Fat Red to be the party clown. Obviously, it would not be a mistake if Fat Hong arrived before the party started. However, they did not agree on a specific time with Fat Hong, but agreed on a vague noon.
Fat Hong was hired as a clown, and he was well aware of his lateness (of course this was not his intention), but he made quibbles, which damaged his image.
I'm not sure why the plot is arranged like this, maybe it's just for fun, maybe it's to make Fat Red look more real and close to the setting. But there is a lack of criticism of "quibbles" in the entire plot. Including in the subsequent "trial plot", Fat Red is also a spoiler – of course, this is its setting – there is still a lack of criticism of its shortcomings.
The intuitive experience is, wow, so cool! The whole article is cool!
To a child audience, Fat Red may be understood as a purely "good guy" and his bad habits may be habituated, accepted and imitated. As shown in the film, children will most likely imitate the adults around them and things that look cool, and think it is right.
If children start to be as cunning and rebellious as Fat Red, it cannot be said to be unacceptable, but it is not worthy of praise.
1.3 The furthest distance
The clown hired by the client frightened the child into screaming. The squirrel and cake that the child wanted to get close to were thrown away by the client.
This set of plots is very short, but very realistic and resonant, so there is no need to say much.
It is definitely wrong to indulge children unconditionally. Children need to be guided and educated. But it is also wrong not to understand the child.
If you don't understand your children, how can you ensure that your guidance and education are effective?
1.4 Anger
The title of this movie is "Angry Birds", and showing anger is essential.
In the plot of fighting against the cake, the suffering and misunderstanding catalyzed anger, and it was anger that lifted the cake. In the movie, this behavior is cool, but in reality, this behavior will obviously ruin Fat Hong's job.
Similarly, if the customer could suppress the anger of having a ruined birthday party, stop making weird excuses for being late, and make self-righteous taunts, none of this would happen.
There are many things in this world that can cause anger, but there are only few things that are worthy of anger.
Most anger destroys things that don't need to be destroyed and produces nothing. And when it comes to things that really deserve anger, too many people forget to be angry.
Disappointing.
1.5 The child who let go
The child let go in order to eat the cake on the floor. As a result, Fat Hong pecked his brother's shell to pieces. In the movie, it's a punchline. But if everything happened in reality, it would be hard to laugh. In fact, in reality, such things are everywhere.
If the success or failure of something ultimately rests on an ignorant child, who is the one who should bear the responsibility?
There is no right answer to this question, and different answers represent different tendencies.
Part 2 The most severe punishment in the law
Before this plot begins, there is a short period of Fat Hong's daily life, accompanied by a song, which is equivalent to the theme song of the movie. If there is some fragmentary background information that should be explained, it would be a good choice to put it here.
The court scene mainly shows the process of the client's family defending their rights in the Bird Court, and sends Fat Hong to the next scene. The content is also not large, but the portion is full.
2.1 Pretentiousness at the door
Just before Fat Hong entered the venue, two birds came out. The bird with the neck protector on its neck took off the neck protector and happily high-fived its companion. Clearly, this was a successful scam. This is in sharp contrast to the island life described by the judge later, which is extremely ironic.
2.2 The little baby who doesn’t give face
The dramatic effect of the plot is basically all in it, and I would like to call it MVP.
2.3 Attack and defense full of slots
The client's family stated the seriousness of the matter (in their opinion), although the baby didn't give it much face, and the subsequent plot was simply filled with flaws.
Fat Hong chose to quibble, emphasizing the "facts" that were beneficial to her. The judge gave a self-feeling speech, like a light and beautiful balloon, which was punctured by the stubborn person at the door. The judge continued his speech and pointed out the problem with Fat Hong – anger. Even if it immediately performed what it means to be angry. Then it describes Fat Hong’s incompatibility with Bird Island, which contrasts with Fat Hong’s subsequent interactions with others after appearing on the scene, and is still exposed.
Next, Fat Hong did not respond directly (why not?), but pointed out the deception of the judge, and also revealed the existence of height discrimination or appearance discrimination. But even if Fatty pointed out a problem, its response was still misleading.
The judge who was knocked down by violence announced that Fat Red would receive the most severe sanction in the law – (just) anger management classes.
The whole plot is full of comedy and meaningful.
2.4 Exaggerated respect for the elderly and love for the young
Respecting the elderly and caring for the young is an undoubted virtue, but if it is exaggerated to the extent in the movie, it will indeed be a bit depressing. But even if it wants to reflect this depression, the movie still arranges the plot of a bird sticking out its tongue to cure it.
It can be seen that the movie raises this issue, but it is extremely cautious.
Part 3 Funny Anger Management Course
This part is full of humor and satire.
3.1 Annoying mascots
When a person is full of emotions, nothing seems right. This "fight" with the mascot at the door is a true portrayal.
Of course, a dead thing cannot do anything intentionally. But from the perspective of Fat Hong’s physical sense, that is, the state presented in the movie, it is indeed that it has been provoking.
Of course, when it comes to taking action, it must be Fat Hong first. Dead objects will not move without external force.
It's a standard negative chain, from a push to let off steam, to both parties being left scarred. And the saddest thing is that even if you defeat this dead thing, there is nothing to be happy about.
OK, at least the emotions were vented, judging from the curled corners of Fat Hong's mouth. But this is not worth advocating.
3.2 A large collection of questions
What has always been difficult for me to adapt to is that there are too many "stained heroes" among the heroes created abroad.
It’s not that heroes can’t have flaws, but the situation that often occurs is, “You must at least be special enough to become a hero”, and “As long as you become a hero, then all the shortcomings are no longer important, and you don’t even need to be in your own. The shortcomings have been sublimated."
This is quite different from domestic culture.
So I don't really resonate with this plot, and I don't like it either. Personally, I think this can be considered foreign dross.
The fear of "doing it" is far away from me.
3.3 Loneliness
The film shows a failed social interaction that leads to loneliness. The small house model was originally in front of the village. After realizing this, it was moved to the deserted waves. This shot is still very realistic.
You can’t enjoy someone without having a “compatible friend.” The self cannot be understood, but it longs to be understood.
Thus, loneliness was born.
If you are a minority among the crowd and are unwilling to change yourself, there is almost no solution. Because even if you go socializing, it is difficult to meet "friends you can get along with." But if you change yourself, will the "compatible friends" you make as a result really be compatible?
To heal loneliness, what is needed is for the "original self" to be understood. Unless you completely change yourself, such as being brainwashed.
The happy ending given later in the film seemed a bit fake to me. I don’t see why these three questions can be friends.
3.4 Mourning Billy
I would like to call this "very" a classic.
Part 4 Piggy goes to the island
This part mainly talks about how Piggy deceived the trust of the birds after arriving on the island, and then stole all the eggs.
To be honest, it's a bit fake, so the resonance is not strong. But as a work for children, it makes sense.
4.1 Fat Red’s House
Xiaoniao's house was damaged by Piggy's boat. When it was brought up, why did everyone look like "You are ruining the fun"…
Then, no one really cares about this matter, and they all go to welcome Piggy?
Unable to substitute.
4.2 Exploding stage and flying slingshots
Happy, happy bird, no anger, but was shocked by a blow-up effect?
Use your slingshot to fly from one place to another but never stop. Everyone has seen this effect, but they are still crazy about it? No other birds raised any objections except Fat Red?
I would call it plot necessity.
4.3 Idiot
The subsequent plot development can only be described as dummy.
Even though Fat Hong exposed one thing after another, the birds still received Piggy warmly, without any suspicion, without any precautions, let alone any defensive measures.
Among so many little birds, only Fat Hong can see through everything except what the plot requires.
4.4 Deepening of friendship(?)
In order to find the invincible condor, Fat Hong took the initiative to find two other guys and went together.
I find that the movie defines friends as having a lot of hard shared experiences. But this is not the case. Finding resonance in shared experiences is the basis for becoming friends.
In the movie, Fat Hong is always outside the team.
4.5 The Fall of the Invincible Condor…
First of all, I have to say that the Lake of Wisdom part is too disgusting…
Secondly, there aren’t many highlights in this paragraph. Although there is irony, it is very inefficient to use such a long length to satirize the same thing.
part 5 egg battle
This part is quite satisfactory and tells the story of the birds retrieving the eggs.
The initial scene where the birds wake up is also not very resonant. After all, in most cases in reality, there is no awakening, and it is more likely to become angry from shame. Then, the advice of others will still not be remembered. In the memory, there is only one's own growth in setbacks, and there is no awakening.
The subsequent process of retrieving the egg was pretty good, with a lively pace and plenty of laughs.
If Fat Hong shouting out the cry of the invincible condor is a change, it can barely be a support for making friends later.
The Invincible Condor has really overcome the problem of not being able to fly.
Dart Yellow is as cheap as ever…
Bomb Black has overcome the problem of being prone to explosions.
The three birds worked together to take the eggs back, and Pang Hong also relied on his own wit to save the last egg.
Then comes the happy ending. Well, it's a little fake. The ending is that Fat Hong is no longer lonely and unstable.
So, this movie is a Chocolate Crisp Globe, not a Chocolate Crisp Earth. After watching this movie, I also thought about whether it would be better if it was made in the direction of marshmallows.
But no one knows the answer.
part 6 some supplements
The pair of CPs, Teacher Bai and Dahong, added a lot of laughter. To be honest, when mourning Billy, Dahong stopped Fat Hong from coming up to hold hands. Was it because Fat Hong was the murderer, or because she wanted to hold hands with Teacher Bai…
I couldn't get the part where I embraced the businessman and the mime actor, probably because I didn't have enough knowledge.
If I had to rename this movie, I would probably name it "A World Only Normal for Fat Hong", because except for Fat Hong, all the other main characters have strange things. But I have to admit that they all have distinct personalities and clear memory points, and there is nothing OOC about them from beginning to end. Wait, it seems that only Fat Hong is the picked egg? Wow, it’s scary to think about it.
If I had to choose a favorite character… it would probably be Bomb Black.
