尤達說

自己算是個star wars迷。多年前聽影評人馮若芷說過:畢生十大電影,必定有《帝國反擊戰》的份兒,經她細心分析後,得著不少,回家一看,果然三集之中這套結構非凡。(細細個覺得三套都好看,長大後以為只是一般popcorn movie,羞與告訴別人。聽君一席話,感覺又自是不同了。)

固然後來的前傳三集都是垃圾,但OT(原裝三部曲)依然是我翻看電影中的top list。新版除了依然會反轉語句說話外,識打筋斗耍劍的CG Yoda,比起70-80年代那個用塑膠做的木偶更沒有靈魂。

依然愛看特別是The Empire Strike Back,當中尤達大師的教誨,其實很「近道」。(80年代荷李活是很流行東方哲學的,例如有套karate kid,扮鬼晒有哲理。)

有時我用這幾句來激勵自己,近日引經據典用來鼓勵朋友,於是到IMDB翻查一下,免得出錯。

談到學習the force,大師話要「棄力」。這令我想起張三豐教張無忌,要先忘記!

Yoda: You must unlearn what you have learned.


訓練時,天行者要以原力舉起巨大戰機,未做先失信心,說「試試啦」。尤達話「there is no try !」

Luke: All right, I'll give it a try.
Yoda: No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try.

天行者失敗了,尤達示範,輕易就做到了。驚訝的天行者O晒咀,嘆道:「我唔信!」

Luke: I don't, I don't believe it.
Yoda: That is why you fail.

談Dark Side,這幾句才夠精煉。Dark Side是:憤怒、恐懼、佔領。「Dark Side強點嗎?不,但會快些,誘惑些。」

Yoda: Yes, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware of the dark side. Anger, fear, aggression; the dark side of the Force are they. Easily they flow, quick to join you in a fight. If once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny, consume you it will, as it did Obi-Wan's apprentice.
Luke: Vader... Is the dark side stronger?
Yoda: No, no, no. Quicker, easier, more seductive.


近日熱血練功中。也望大家亙勉亙勉:"may the force be with you"
