Main Theme, New Vehicle: The Educational Value of Science Fiction Movies — Taking the Wandering Earth Ⅱ as an Example

Abstract

As a new type of melodramatic film in recent years, melodramatic science fiction films are not only novel in subject matter and loved by the audience and widely disseminated, but also play an important role in publicizing the national mainstream ideology and values. Combining it with youth value education not only has the theoretical fit in terms of value orientation, education mode, education content, and target audience, but also has the application value of enriching classroom content, adapting to fragmented learning, and enhancing the participation and initiative of young people. This paper takes the movie “The Wandering Earth Ⅱ” as an example to analyze the theoretical connotation and application value of realizing melodramatic science fiction movies in youth values education, and proposes a possible practical path for the organic integration of the two.
