Which is better, the Wandering Earth movie or the original?

Depending on the settings, the original version is definitely better. After all, the film just picked a trivial chapter from the original, and it can make a beautiful disaster film of 125 minutes. In the original book, the huge waves in the brake era, the confrontation between the rebels and the Coalition government, the Olympic Games across the frozen Pacific Ocean … Take out any one, or at least make a movie.

Seeing the characters, the movie is definitely better. The protagonist of the original book is basically a human flesh camera, which tells a series of stories about the earth from braking to entering the wandering era. As always, the characters in it continue Liu's feature of "the collection of characters serves the presentation", and they are basically paper men with no hierarchy at all. However, in the movie, whether it is the tearful "Come on ... Stop ..." from the older generation of Han Ziang, or the helplessness of his father and the collapse of his son's emotional outburst, in the last call between Liu Qi and Liu Peiqiang, Liu Qi changed from a rebellious technical genius punk to a mature man who took on his father's career, and Han Duoduo changed from a dismissive "hope" to a sincere call for help ... although these characteristics still improved.

Reading stories is actually better than watching movies. The original story is actually a little unfinished. After "Five Thousand Popsicles", it suddenly jumped to fifty years later, and the protagonist was dying. Although the earth experienced rebellion, it still sailed out of the solar system and entered the wandering era. How the rebellion was put down, who made the policy of continuing to sail, and how human beings unified their thinking ... Without saying a word, readers were free to imagine (sorry, I have to fill in a novel here and write it after finishing my work at hand). This movie, at least, is a complete story with a beginning and an end. From the outbreak of Jupiter crisis, to active response, to failure, to the last desperate attempt of the space station ... to the final solution of the crisis, the earth continues to wander. This is a complete story, which will not make people feel bad or unfinished.

Seeing this idea ... is a matter of opinion, but I prefer movies. After all, in this era full of uncertainty and crisis, a positive and optimistic ending is more comfortable than a pessimistic and ironic ending. In addition, the film finally sang "Looking at the Sea". Cao Cao wrote "Looking at the Sea" so far, about1800; Confucius began to compile Chunqiu, which happened about 2500 years ago. Of course, we will have many changes, but it is undeniable that as a nation with a history of at least 4,000 years, we also have many things passed down from ancient times and will continue to pass them on. Considering this, maybe 2500 years is not too long, as long as we seize the day.
