科幻片中的对话也是多循老路,如主角会从现实世界中举出两个例子作为参考,然后第三个例子就是编造出来的虚拟人物。就像《星际迷航:可汗的愤怒》中出现的那样:“你将与最伟大的科学家——牛顿、爱因斯坦、萨拉克并列。”
看,开始的两个科学家已经建立了伟大的标准,但你从未听说过第三位,如果他(她)足以和前面两位并列,就必须取得伟大的成就,比如治愈癌症什么的。真让人一头雾水。就像我们在聊天时说:“这孩子体能不错,他将成为下一个乔丹、科比或詹姆斯!(前两者是美国NBA大腕球星,后者则不知从何而来)”
居然不知道詹姆斯从何而来...orz
想当然的节选着译啊真是...
原文:
Why They Should Stop:
There's something corny about the way they always start the list off with something that happened close to the time when the show was made, rather than starting close to when the characters are supposed to live. It would be like starting off your genocidal references with the Jerusalem massacre of 1099 rather than the Holocaust.
Also, how often is it that you list more than one past reference in a single sentence? "This kid is great, he'll be the next Michael Jordan, Kobe Bryant, LeBron James!"
We do have to give credit to Firefly, which largely avoided this. The series takes place in the wake of a massive (failed) war for independence, of which two main characters are veterans, so most historical references are from that war, with the exception being a (very) educated doctor referencing Ancient Egypt.
这一部分明明是"Why They Should Stop" |
