電影《沙丘瀚戰》評價兩極,我沒有閱讀過原著小說,完全是一張白紙的狀態入場觀看,說不上很喜歡,但如果推出續集的話是一定願意入場的,畢竟Part One只是序章,用了不少篇幅去建構架空而龐大的迷人世界觀,不至於複雜到難以消化,只是剛步出新手村因此還未沉迷到通宵解任務的地步,不過絕對願意課金買個新手包上路的那種程度。
我比較想談談的是導演Denis Villeneuve最近批評Marvel電影公式化,只是不斷的複製和貼上:
There are too many Marvel movies that are nothing more than a cut and paste of others. Perhaps these types of movies have turned us into zombies a bit.
我不認為Denis Villeneuve是單純的吃不到的葡萄是酸的,他的Arrival是我非常喜歡的作品,看過電影之後還特意去找姜峯楠的原著來讀,也因此更加佩服Denis Villeneuve的能耐。
Arrival的原著《妳一生的預言》算是較難改編成電影的小說,一來它是篇幅只有不到90頁的短篇故事,要擴展成兩小時的電影就需要相當大程度地改寫,二來小說採非線性敘事方式,第一與第二人稱不斷交插敘述,是本像詩篇一樣的科幻小說,但Arrival不止補完小說省去的部分,變成一個結構更完整的故事,也成功用影像呈現出小說溫柔而哀傷的調子。加上《沙丘》也是被稱為史上最難改編的小說,這兩部作品也並非copy and paste可以了事,因此Denis Villeneuve確實一而再地證明了他的才華,也許他的確有批評的資格。
不過有資格去批評,也不代表一定要直斥。
Denis Villeneuve不齒的Marvel曾經瀕臨破產,而其中一個挽狂瀾於既倒的人是在Iron Man飾演Happy的Jon Favreau。
Jon Favreau作為Iron Man的導演,力薦當時因吸毒而事業低迷的Robert Downey Jr.擔綱男主角,結果為Marvel殺出一條血路,也為The Infinity Saga揭開序幕。
Jon Favreau如今沒有再執導Marvel電影,他在Netflix上有一個烹飪節目叫The Chef Show,每集到不同地方邀請名人或廚師一邊煮食一邊聊天,美食固然是賣點,但Jon和每集嘉賓流露的創作甚至人生態度才是這個節目最值得一看的地方。例如其中一集緬懷首位憑食評獲得普立茲獎的傳奇美食評論家Jonathan Gold,Jon回想自己在籌備電影Chef之前曾經拜訪過他,當時Jonathan Gold說了一番頗有意思的話。
Jonathan Gold說他常常到沒有名聲的小餐廳,如果他不喜歡那裡的菜式,他從來不會公開批評一句,因為他不想傷害那些還在努力當中的小店,他之所以比較喜歡幫助一些有潛力的好餐廳吸引更多人注意,全因為「He knew what his spotlight would do」。
當然了,Marvel不是小店,不會因為一句批評就倒下,不過當一個人愈是有能力,說話愈是有份量,那就更加應該謹言慎行,讓自己的影響力發揮正面作用,或者比張口批評來得更有意思。
Marvel的確有些爆谷電影,但優秀的作品也有不少,不說鋪排了十一年的Endgame,就算是我早幾天翻看的Doctor Strange,說的是一個自負好勝的smart ass,在最後甘願放下自我用「不斷輸」的方式來救世,也是相當可敬的不是嗎?
最後,Doctor Strange的導演也retweet了自己以前一則Tweet作為對Denis Villeneuve的回應:
As a director I don’t slag on the work of other directors even when I don’t like something they’ve made. This job is hard enough for all of us, and nobody ever sets out to make a bad movie.

#超棒練聽力素材
#練聽力真的是要融入日常生活中啊
連續六個工作天,大家累壞了吧?我今天也是到了中午,腦袋就撐不下去了😬
吃完飯後突然想到我很常用的冥想app “Insight Timer”裡面有一個系列叫”mindfulness at work”,mindfulness有點難用單一一個字翻譯,就是專注在當下、覺察此刻的心理狀態、維持正念的意思。
我選了一個六分鐘的冥想練習,閉著眼睛,邊拉筋邊聽,覺得超級有效!
很多人都覺得聽全英語好像很困難,其實一點也不!
因為冥想的語音單元,很常用的就那幾個字,熟記那些字/用法後,每次聽就不斷反覆複習,既做了冥想,還順道練了聽力,我個人覺得超棒的!
這是幾個mindfulness at work系列裡常會用到的幾個字,熟記後,應該可以聽懂五成,加上猜一猜也會有個七成。
🌳 Let’s begin by letting go of everything that you’ve been doing.
let go – 有聽過冰雪奇緣1主題曲那首「Let it go~Let it go~」吧?就是放開手、讓它走吧
所以let go of everything that you’ve been doing 就是「先放下所有你剛剛在做的事,先放一旁」,亦即開始專注到mindfulness上。
🌳 Take a moment now to find a way to put it all behind you.
take a moment – 用這段時間(來做一件事)
put it all behind you – 另一種let it go的意思,都放到腦後、拋開
不要去想
🌳 stretch and move around – 伸展、拉筋和動一動
🌳 take a nice deep breath – 深深吸一口氣
🌳 breathe in – 吸氣
breathe out – 吐氣
🌳 bring your attention to your belly – 把你的注意力放在肚子/感受一下你的肚子(或其他部位to your body/fingers/toes等等)
🌳 let your arm soften and relax – soften是使柔軟,所以就是要你 放鬆手臂,不要用力(或其他部位)
🌳 relaxation - 放鬆感,常會搭配 breathe in relaxation,想像吸氣吸進放鬆感
🌳 tension - 緊繃感、壓力,常會搭配breathe out tension,把壓力吐出來
🌳 be aware of – 有意識地去察覺、感覺(某事物)
🌳 bring your awareness to your breath/body – aware 是要去「察覺、意識」某事物,awareness名詞就是你的「意識、注意的地方」,整句可以理解為「專注在你的呼吸/身體」
我聽的是 Mary Maddux 的”Mini-Break For Work Or Study”,大家可以下載Insight Timer搜尋看看。
我覺得應該還有更好的講者,但今天隨意點了她的來聽,同學們可以找找其他聽了讓你覺得更舒服放鬆的音檔,建議要戴耳機,能聽得更清楚。
不是業配喔🤭 單純真心推薦~
我其實比較常聽 Improve your sleep系列,睡得真的會很沉,像飄在外太空無重力翻滾那樣🤣
你們也會想要我整理重點句子/單字嗎?
out of work意思 在 Facebook 的最讚貼文
【力量訓練的「訓練量」該如何設定?】
跑者的訓練量俗稱「跑量」,單位是「公里」,所以月跑量三百是指一個月總訓練距離300公里。在力量訓練圈的「訓練量」(Training Volume)常是「總反覆次數」 (Total Repetition)的同義詞;而「月總量」就是指一個月的總反覆次數,像我們會建議初跑者的月跑量最好不要超過100公里一樣,在做重訓時,有沒有一個區間可以讓大家參考呢?下面是《The System》的作者群建議:
#以下為譯文:
以剛接觸訓練的新手來說,月總量最好從750次(總反覆次數)開始;而菁英運動員的上限設在1,600次。在前蘇聯時代,我們親眼看到他們運動員以更高的月總量進行訓練。然而,我們後來也發現這跟他們使用加強運動表現的補給品有關,那使運動員能更快恢復。
總反覆次數是指在單一個週期中(這裡是指中週期)所有基本力量動作重複次數的總合。因此總反覆次數750的意思是在不同的訓練強度與動作中總共累計的次數,但這個數字不包括輔助訓練的動作。
從帳面上來看,750這個數字分配到一個月十二到十六次課表當中,看起來似乎很小,但我們這們所定的750這個數字比較像是「基本量」,而非下限,如果總反覆次數低於750下,就不會為運動員的成長帶來實質的影響。表 4.14 中的數值並不是意味著高水平或菁英運動員在四週內的總反覆次數永遠不會有低於1,000次情況發生,那只是維持成長的基本量。對運動員的恢復能力影響最大的是訓練量,因此這些範圍中比較需要注意的是上限的數值。若月總量超過上限值,恢復能力將快速到受到侵害,而且侵害的速度比任何其他因素都快。
一位菁英水準的運動員可以在一個月的時間裡完成1,000次以下的訓練,就算在恢復期也經常發生。然而,訓練新手若超過1,000次的上限,大都要承擔受傷或嚴重過度訓練的風險。
許多教練擔心他們的運動員練不夠,所以無法有效獲得力量和爆發力的進步。他們不想因為目標定得太低而有所保留,這讓他們感覺是「浪費」了一個月的訓練時間。剛開始採用這個方法來訓練時有這種感覺很自然,我們系統中的每一位教練也都曾經歷過相同的掙扎。
美國的力量教練已經把「訓練要用盡全力」當作一種信念,訓練完還有餘力好像就會覺得不夠認真。但請相信我們。我們說的方法很少失敗,也幾乎沒有過度訓練的風險,這些區間已被證明能最有效地幫助運動員進步。
在調整運動員的訓練量時,需要考慮到他們的技巧、經驗、過去的醫療史、訓練史、性別、實際年齡與訓練年齡。
我們過去的慘痛教訓可以讓你少走許多彎路。當你在訓練量的拿捏上猶豫不決時,原則是寧少勿多。寧可因量太少沒進步,也不要犯下過量訓練的錯誤。
總訓練量不包括輔助訓練或是特別針對「局部效果」的練習次數。那些動作主要是為了強化特定肌肉或是使全身力量動作能做得更好的輔助性訓練,所以我們不會把它們算在總訓練量中。
最受我們重視的力量訓練動作不只對身體的負擔很大,技術要求也很高;正因如此,我們才會嚴格限制訓練量。
雖然輔助訓練不會被計算在總訓練量裡,但你不要因此失控,開始加練很多你想練的輔助動作。永遠記住:效率第一。
#原文如下
The absolute floor of volume for a novice athlete is 750 total exercise repetitions per month, and the ceiling for the elite athlete is 1,600 total reps. During our time in the former Soviet Republics, we witnessed athletes performing even higher monthly training volumes. However, as we found later, that was often with the benefit of performance-enhancing substances that allowed for more rapid recovery.
In a single cycle, the total number of repetitions pertains to all exercises performed in the key movements. This means 750 total repetitions are spread between the different exercises among the range of training intensities we want to emphasize.
On the surface, these can seem like small numbers when we consider they may be spread out over 12 to 16 training sessions. That 750-rep total is really more like the basement rather than the floor of total volume—any less than 750 will not budge the needle on gains. That does not mean advanced or elite-level athletes will not have cycles that dip below 1,000 reps. These ranges should be more prescriptive of the ceiling of higher volumes to avoid exceeding. Pushing monthly volume beyond these ranges erodes recovery more rapidly than any other factor.
An elite-level athlete can use a month with a total volume of under 1,000 reps, as will often be the case when returning to training. However, a novice athlete can rarely exceed the 1,000-rep ceiling without risking an injury or a significant overtraining effect.
Many coaches worry their athletes will not do enough work to promote gains in strength and power. They do not want to “waste” a month by aiming too low on total volume and leaving some gains in the tank. That is a natural feeling when adopting this method, and each of us went through the same mental struggle.
Strength coaches in America are not hard-wired to accept less than maximum. However, trust us when we say that without fail, these ranges have proven to be the most effective in generating progress with almost no risk of overtraining.
Fine-tuning where your athletes fall in a volume range takes skill, experience, and consideration of their medical and training history, biological and training age, and gender.
The bloody trail of our mistakes can save you a lot of added stress: When in doubt, it is always better to err on the side of less volume than too much.
The total volume number does not include accessory work or exercises of “local effect.” Those exercises are more targeted muscle strengthening or exercises to support the main movements.
We are mainly concerned about the most physically taxing exercises that demand more of an athlete’s attention to technique—hence, the volume restrictions.
Although the accessory work is not included in the volume calculations, you still cannot go wild, adding as much as you want. Always remember this: efficiency first.
