影视英语:有关电影《魔兽》的英文简介

In the world of film, blockbusters adapted from novels are ubiquitous. And over the past few decades, comic book movies such as Deadpool (2016) and Ant-Man (2015) have gained huge popularity among moviegoers.

在电影界,改编自小说的大片数不胜数。近年来,《死侍》(2016)、《蚁人》(2015)等漫画改编电影也吸引了大批观众。

But films based on video games have yet to garner the same level of prestige. They often feel lazy or have weak

character development. Notable attempts like Super Mario Bros (1993) and Tomb Raider (2001) have all flopped.

但是,基于游戏改编的影片却始终未能收获同样的好评。它们往往结

构松散或是人物性格发展缺乏说服力。比如《超级玛丽》(1993)和《古墓丽影》(2001)都是备受注重的尝试,却均以失败告终。

But unlike its predecessors, the Warcraft movie has defied viewers’ expectations. In China, it broke multiple box

office records, winning over both ardent fans and casual moviegoers.

不过不同以往的是,电影《魔兽》就*了观众的预期。它在中国上映后

打破了多项票房纪录,赢得了热血玩家的推崇,也获得了普通观影者

的好评。

What makes Warcraft stand out is the way British director Duncan Jones presents a clash of civilizations with heroes

and villains on both sides, rather than a conventional story about good against evil.

让《魔兽》脱颖而出的原因是,影片导演邓肯琼斯体现了两种不同文

明的碰撞,双方都有英雄和反派角色,而不但仅是情节老套的“善与恶”的交锋。

Warcraft draws its plot from the real-time strategy game Warcraft: Orcs & Humans, where an orc horde flees to the human world to escape famine, and the humans defend their home from the orcs.

《魔兽》电影改编自即时战略游戏《魔兽争霸:人类与兽人》,讲述

兽族部落来到人类世界逃避饥荒,人类为了保护家园,抵抗兽族入侵

的故事。

In Warcraft, the orcs are not just mindless villains. There

are characters like Durotan, who sacrifices himself while fighting wi th evil warlock Gul’dan to protect his clan. On

the human side, there are villains like Medivh who is controlled by an evil spirit. Other characters, like the

knight Anduin, inhabit morally ambiguous territory: Anduin must look for ways to protect the world of Azeroth from the

orc menace.

在《魔兽》中,兽人并不但仅头脑简单的坏蛋,也有一些角色比如杜

隆坦,为了保护自己的部落,不惜牺牲自己与邪恶的巫师古尔丹决斗。人类方面也有反面角色,比如被邪灵附体的麦迪文。其他角色如骑士

安度因·洛萨也是一个道德模糊的人物,他必须找到保护艾泽拉斯大

陆免遭兽族侵略的方法。

“The protagonists on each side are noble and empathetic,” Jones told The Guardian. “They have reasons for doing what they’re doing that we understand. Both the humans and the

orcs represent rich cultures in their own right, with people you care about and people who are obnoxious.”
