完全不知道、根本没料到
Superman. Wonder Woman, I had no idea you'd be here.The Lego Movie · 2014 — 第 13 / 22 章 · 1'58" · B1
这边有人说 The only remnant of The Special was a double-decker couch(天选之人留下的唯一残骸,是一张双层沙发),那边有人把它说得一文不值:the most useless idea I have ever heard(我听过最没用的点子)。可漂在海上时,偏偏是它 It's the one thing that stayed together(就它没散架)。想学阴阳怪气、反转和安慰的说法,这段很典型。
商业总统的思想罐里关着一堆大师建筑师,他得知天选之人可能还活着:The Special and the Piece of Resistance are at the bottom of the ocean(天选之人和抗性积木都在海底)。唯一留下的东西,是 The only remnant of The Special was a double-decker couch(一张双层沙发)。他先自己琢磨「上下铺沙发?」那样合理吗、谁愿意坐下面,最后结论是 the most useless idea I have ever heard(我听过最没用的点子)。可画面一转,大家真就靠这张沙发漂在海上,它 It's the one thing that stayed together(就它没散架),还让人想起那句 I always believed in you, Emmet(我一直相信你,艾米特)。想学吐槽、打脸和走心台词,这段切换得很妙。

45 句台词里标了 21 处
完全不知道、根本没料到
Superman. Wonder Woman, I had no idea you'd be here.否定认知接内容:I had no idea you'd be here 把「我完全没想到」说成 had no idea,后面接 you'd be here 说明没想到的具体内容。had 用过去时,指看到你之前的状态。中文说「我不知道你会来」,英文用 no idea 把惊讶压得更重。
Superman. Wonder Woman, I had no idea you'd be here.想出、拿出(主意或办法)
反派解释大师建造者们的用途,说宇宙里所有东西的说明书都是他们 come up with 出来的。
They come up with all the instructions for everything in the universe.come up 里 m 与 up 连成 /kʌmʌp/,up 的 p 又轻轻贴上 with,整串顺下来。
They come up with all the instructions for everything in the universe.比这糟得多
Can't get much worse than this.这多离谱、多不可思议——口语里 crazy 可指「离谱、惊人」,用反问强调巧合;朋友闲聊可用,正式场合显得随意。
Oh, my gosh, we're roommates! How crazy is that?在……的最底部
The Special and the Piece of Resistance are at the bottom of the ocean.就在我们说话的这会儿
Sir, my scuba team is looking for his remains as we speak.without 加动名词:how are you gonna get down without climbing over someone 用 without 加动名词,表示「不靠做某事」也能完成:不用越过别人就能下来吗。without 后面接动词时要写成 climbing,不能接原形。中文用「不……就……」对应。
how are you gonna get down without climbing over someone?一大串、一堆
are you gonna have to watch through a bunch of dangling legs?被贬到极点的点子
商业王把双层沙发斥为 the most useless idea I have ever heard,可它其实是全片唯一没散架的发明。
the most useless idea I have ever heard.most 与 useless 各扛一记重音,后面的 I have ever heard 轻而平,听感上「最没用」被推到最前。
the most useless idea I have ever heard.到头来、终究还是
双层沙发被批得一文不值,最后船员才发现它 wasn't totally pointless after all,原来还有用。
It wasn't totally pointless after all.保持在一起、没有散开
It's the one thing that stayed together.相信并支持某人
露西在众人质疑艾米特时对他说 I always believed in you,把信任交到他手上。
I always believed in you, Emmet.扫大家的兴
I don't mean to spoil the party, but does anyone else notice...else 附加疑问:does anyone else notice 里 else 跟在 anyone 后面,表示「除我们之外还有别人」。疑问句用 does 打头,notice 保持原形。中文说「还有别人注意到吗」,else 不能省,也不能换成别的写法。
I don't mean to spoil the party, but does anyone else notice...卡在……中间、进退不得
we're stuck in the middle of the ocean on this couch?凭空、从天而降
is gonna come out of nowhere and save us...out of 常连成 /aʊtəv/,of 的 v 贴着 nowhere 滑过去,一口气说完。
is gonna come out of nowhere and save us...天哪(温和的惊叹)——my gosh 是 my god 的委婉说法,表示惊讶;比脏话轻,朋友间常用,正式场合仍偏随意。
My gosh!Can't get much worse than this.再糟也糟不过现在了。 在最低处用一句黑色幽默给自己垫底。它既是苦笑,也可能马上被打脸——这种脆弱的乐观反而更真实。
It's the one thing that stayed together.它是唯一没有散架的东西。 用一个朴素的观察点题:花哨的都垮了,最被看不起的那件反而完整。它把「价值」交还给最不起眼的东西。
The only remnant of The Special was a double-decker couch.「特别之人」留下的唯一痕迹,是一张双层沙发。 把英雄的遗迹写成一件笑话般的家具,庄重和滑稽撞在一起。它预告了整部片最核心的翻转:了不起的可能只是最普通的东西。
Who's gonna want to sit on the bottom?谁会愿意坐下面? 站在最较真的角度挑一张沙发的毛病,越认真越好笑,也顺手替失败的点子翻了案。
意思是「最没用的点子」,useless 就是「没用的」。台词里 the most useless idea I have ever heard 用最高级加 ever heard,把嫌弃说到顶,一句话就把对方的创意踩到底。
after all。它常放句尾,表示结果和预期相反,带点意外或释然。台词里 It wasn't totally pointless after all 就是「看来也不是完全没意义」。
come up with。后面接点子、办法、借口都行,比如 come up with all the instructions(想出所有的说明书)。它强调从无到有地想出来。
believe in someone。它不只是相信对方说的话,而是看好这个人本身、愿意给他撑腰。台词里 I always believed in you, Emmet 就是「我一直看好你」。
spoil the party,字面是「把聚会搞砸」,引申为泼冷水、扫大家的兴。台词里 I don't mean to spoil the party 就是「我不想扫兴,不过……」,常用来给坏消息开场。
