Special feature of 1905 film network When the earth becomes a Wang Yang, how will mankind survive?

When this week’s excellent film was released in 1995, its sci-fi concept was too advanced to be accepted by the audience, which led to a box office failure.

However, with the attention paid to environmental protection in recent years, many sci-fi films with eschatological themes have poured in, and the reputation of this film has gradually reversed. People find that this film is seriously underestimated.

It is difficult to shoot behind the scenes.

The film Future Water World was released in 1995, which coincided with the initial outbreak of computer special effects. In 1993, the film has gained high box office and high reputation by relying on realistic special effects technology.

However, the film "Future Water World" did not catch up with the trend of computer special effects. The film producer tried to restore the reality and spent $5 million to build the main scene of a real steel atoll at sea.

However, due to the fact that the production team did not investigate the climate law of Hawaii in detail and underestimated the actual difficulty of shooting on the sea surface, a lot of money was wasted on the reconstruction of the scene and the overdue shooting, and the filming budget was seriously overspent. The lack of special effects production also made the film deviate from the expectations of the audience.

Today, when the audience re-examines the film with today’s eyes, it is found that although the film lacks the support of shocking visual effects, the scenes of diving, jumping, explosion and collision of many motorboats are also spectacular.

The turning point of kevin costner’s career.

In addition to the action visual scene that was seriously underestimated in the film, the leading actor kevin costner also suffered an important turning point in his career because of this film.

Kevin costner was a leading actor in Hollywood before starring in the movie "Future Water World".

In the field of directing, he won the 63rd Academy Awards for his films, including seven awards including best film and best director.

In the field of performance, the film Bodyguard starring him won the second place in the global box office in 1992.

The film "Future Water World" was made by kevin costner, who persuaded the producers to invest in filming, and he also had a great say in filming. The film director Reynolds once complained to the media: "costner tells almost every shot."

The dispute between the director and the starring actor over the script and editing has become the content widely reported by the media during the filming, which has also led to people’s focus on these tidbits after the film was released, ignoring the profound topic about where human evolution will go in the film.

Minority film type "doomsday wasteland"

In the film "Future Water World", human beings live on water, and even evolved the advanced sci-fi concepts of gills and webbed. Although it was not understood by the audience when it was released, it contributed to the birth of a new film type — — "Wasteland Film", and many films after it, have also begun to explore the future of mankind in this direction.

In the film of 2004, the greenhouse effect made mankind face the crisis of the second ice age.

In the 2007 film, the survivors fell into a lonely situation.

The film released in 2009 showed the audience the world after the sea level rose.

In 2015, the film created a phenomenal film by shaping the cruel doomsday war.
