穹顶之下 第一季

自从电视上对该剧的大力宣传开始，笔者一直怀着期盼的心情，等待着一见其真容。打着科幻悬疑和斯皮尔伯格的招牌，确实吸引了我脆弱的小心脏。开播那天守在电视前，刚看了十几分钟就发现不对了，这罩罩，这小镇，你确定这不是辛普森的真人版？？
好吧不论如何，第一集的悬疑戏份十足，加上美剧一贯的不接着看就憋死的风格，此剧还在可接受范围之内。可是一星期之后的第二集，让我的智商面临了一次不小的挑战...不仅剧情毫无进展，各路正反派又无所不用其极地秀着下线。本集结束时笔者终于再也忍不住，冲进了维基，想了解下原著的精髓，或者找找和辛普森的血缘关系。看了简介方才恍然大悟，这导演和演员真是冤啊，这种剧本简直是剧组的期末考卷啊，能pass就是奇迹啊！

废话说了一大堆，我想不少朋友都是冲着剧透来的，我在这里只说下原著的梗概（英文基础好的朋友可以直接看后附的原文），不排除剧集会在剧情上做出改动，不过从前两集的状况来看，希望渺茫啊。

首先这个罩罩从哪来的，对，你没有猜错，那是外星人啊外星人，而且是一群青春期叛逆的外星人，至于为什么要弄一个罩子把小镇罩起来，我想大家都知道那种透明蚂蚁窝吧，没错，就是因为好玩...外星少年们觉得好玩...

至于罩子对剧情有什么影响，非常不幸，没了..那就是个罩子，其他剧情完全只是发生在罩子里的，关于所谓人性的故事，故事大概是这样的，议员在发现罩子之后，就想夺取小镇的的控制权，在他控制下的部分人们开始反抗，最终战胜邪恶。。至于那丙烷，是议员用来做毒品的（meth，应该是冰毒之类的），是的，这就是小镇所谓的秘密。最后的最后，那个毒品工厂爆炸了。。放出了许多有毒气体 毒死了大部分人，之后在女主角，就是那个记者的说服下，外星人少年们同情了他们，把小蚂蚁们都放了。。。。这就是全部的狗血剧情，悬疑？科幻？各位看官智者见智吧。。

后附百科的原文 供大家参考
At 11:44 AM on Saturday October 21 of an unspecified year after 2012 (evident by mention of a faded bumper sticker for Barack Obama's 2012 re-election campaign[3][4]), the small Maine town of Chester's Mill is abruptly and gruesomely separated from the outside world by an invisible, semipermeable barrier of unknown origin. The immediate appearance of the barrier causes a number of injuries and fatalities, and traps former Army Captain Dale "Barbie" Barbara—who is trying to leave Chester's Mill because of a local dispute—inside the town.
Police Chief Howard "Duke" Perkins is soon killed when his pacemaker explodes after getting too close to the barrier. This removes the last significant opposition to James "Big Jim" Rennie, used car salesman and the town's Second Selectman. Big Jim exerts significant influence within Chester's Mill, and seizes the opportunity to use the barrier as part of a power play to take over the town.
Big Jim appoints one of his cronies, the incompetent Peter Randolph, as the new Police Chief. He also begins expanding the ranks of the Chester's Mill Police with questionable candidates, including his son, Junior Rennie, and his friends. Junior has frequent migraines caused by an as-yet undiscovered brain tumor which has also begun affecting his mental state; unbeknownst to Big Jim, Junior was in the process of beating and strangling a girl to death when the barrier appeared, and has killed another girl by the time Rennie places him on the police force.
Elsewhere in Chester's Mill, Julia Shumway, the editor of the local newspaper, is phoned by Colonel James O. Cox, who has her carry a message to Barbie to contact him. When he does, Cox requests that Barbie act as the government's liaison in an effort to bring down the Dome, as it has come to be known. Because of Barbie's talents as a former bomb factory hunter, Cox gives him the task of locating the dome's power source, which is believed to be inside the Dome. Cox is also able to foresee the small town political ramifications of such a situation. By virtue of a Presidential order, Barbie is reinstated in the U.S. military and promoted to full Colonel. Barbie is also presented with a decree granting him authority over the township. However, smalltown politics being what they are, this action is not well received by Big Jim and his misguided band of renegade police officers.
As Big Jim covertly encourages and orchestrates unease and panic among the town to build up his grab for power, Barbie, Julia and a number of other townspeople attempt to stop things from spiraling out of control. After crossing Rennie's path on several occasions, Barbie is framed and arrested for four murders. He is accused of killing Reverend Lester Coggins, who laundered money for Rennie's large-scale methamphetamine operation, and Duke's widow Brenda Perkins, who were both murdered by Big Jim, as well as the two girls Junior killed. While Barbie is in jail, other residents track the source of the Dome to an abandoned farm, and the device is strongly indicated to be extraterrestrial in origin. The restrictions issued by Rennie become more severe and the police force grows more abusive, galvanizing the town and eventually leading some residents to break Barbie out of jail, killing Junior seconds before he can murder Barbie.
The semi-organized resistance flees to the abandoned farm, where multiple people touch the strange object and experience visions. They not only conclude that the device was put in place by extraterrestrial "leatherheads" (so named for their appearance), but that specifically they are juveniles who have set up the Dome as a cruel form of entertainment, a sort of ant farm used to capture sentient beings and allow their captors to view everything that happens inside.
On an organized "Visitors Day"—when people outside the Dome can meet at its edge with people within—Big Jim sends Randolph and a detachment of police to take back control of his former meth operation from Phil "Chef" Bushey, who is stopping Rennie from covering up the operation as well as hoarding the more than four hundred tanks of propane stored there (Chef wants it all, explaining, "I need it to cook"). Big Jim underestimates Chef's capacity for self-defense and meth-induced paranoia; he, as well as the now-ostracized head selectman Andy Sanders (whom Chef has introduced to meth use) defend themselves and the meth lab with assault rifles. Many are killed in the ensuing gunfight and Chef, who is mortally wounded, detonates a plastic explosive device he has placed in the meth production facility. The ensuing explosion, combined with the propane and meth-making chemicals, unleashes a toxic firestorm large enough to incinerate most of the town.
More than a thousand of the town's residents are quickly incinerated on national television, leaving alive only the twenty-six survivors at the abandoned barn, an orphaned farm boy hiding in a potato cellar, and Big Jim and his informal aide-de-camp, Carter Thibodeau, in the town's fallout shelter. Big Jim and Thibodeau eventually turn on each other over the stores of food and water (and Big Jim's worry that Thibodeau may act as a witness against him if they survive); Big Jim stabs and disembowels Thibodeau, only to die several hours later when hallucinations of the dead send him fleeing into the now-toxic environment outside. The survivors at the barn begin to slowly asphyxiate, despite efforts by the Army to force clean air through the walls of the Dome.
Barbie and Julia go to the control device to beg their captors to release them. Julia is able to make contact with a single female leatherhead, no longer accompanied by her friends and thus not caught up in their peer pressure. After repeatedly expressing that they are real sentient beings with real "little lives", and by sharing a painful childhood incident with the adolescent alien, Julia convinces the leatherhead to have pity on them. The Dome raises up slowly and vanishes, allowing the toxic air to dissipate and finally freeing the town of Chester's Mill.

      好吧，我实在无法相信我竟然把这部剧从头到尾，一集不落的追完了！而且每一集都有那么多让人吐血的雷人剧情！！！！
      我实在无法形容镇子上的那些愚民，你们敢不敢再没存在感一点，大吉姆说什么就是什么，你们会不会动动脑子！
       好吧，龙套没脑子我也不说什么了，琳达你作为主角能不能别那么水，几乎所有的事情你都判断错了，人家大吉姆把你卖了你还乐呵呵的给人家数钱呢！
      小詹姆斯你这是卖萌还是在卖萌呢？你开始的时候就把你那个相好给关起来是什么意思？穹顶落下她就病了？病了你关人家禁闭又是什么意思？密室治疗吗？麻烦动一动脑子好不好，还长了那么一张欠揍的脸，服了。。。
       至于boss，好吧，麦克斯出场，一下子掌握了那么多秘密，我以为会有多厉害呢，结果。。。三级之后，就被大吉姆给毙了，连哼都没哼一声。。。。。可怜我还盼望有什么大动作呢。。。。。哦。。还有那个农场主。。。。死的也太草率了把。。好歹也让他死的体面一点好不好。。。
      结局。。。。就这么把一季给结束了？敢不敢再水一点。。。。把蛋扔水里面。。你是怎么想的？更奇葩的是，竟然还有反应了。。。这也太神棍了吧。。。。吐血中。。。。
      总觉得这是史蒂芬金的自毁之作。。。

因为穹顶之下有小说原版，一向等待剧情无能的我，跑去看了原版，但是好长嗄。所以偷懒去wikipedia看了小说概括。看完一时兴起，把它翻译了出来。这种行为很不好。纠结了一下，还是决定放上来，给其他等待无能的童鞋观看。这么做原因如下，这是原版概括，来自于wikipedia,不但无法保证准确性，而且搬上电视，剧本也做了大量的修改。剧情肯定会有很多不一样的地方。这篇翻译，某种程度上只是提供了未来剧情开展的大致方向。希望不会毁了观赏乐趣所在。

下面贴上wikipedia上的原文，以作spoiler alert。同时欢迎大家比对指正。

Synopsis：

       在2012年之后的某一年的十月二十一号早晨 （书中清楚地提到了某辆车的保险杠前一张已经退色的奥巴马2012再选广告宣传贴纸），11点44分，一个在缅因州叫做Chester’s Mill的小镇，忽然被一个不知道从哪里来的可怕的隐形半渗透膜状的屏障给罩了起来，断绝了和外界的一切联系。这个突然出现的屏障导致了一系列的伤亡事件，同时困住了前陆军上尉Dale Barbara ( Barbie)，他本来因为本地的一个争执事件而正准备离开这个镇。
　　
　　警齤察局长Howard Perkins (Duke) 很快的因为接触到了屏障，而使他体内的心脏起搏器爆炸而死亡。他是市政委员 James Rennie (Big Jim)在镇上的最大阻力。Big Jim 在Chester’s Mill 有很大的影响力，而且把这次的与世隔绝当作一个可以接管整个镇的机会。


    Big Jim 指派了一个和他有裙带关系，但没什么能力的 Peter Randolph 来当新的警齤察局长。同时，他还开始扩编警齤察队伍，这些靠不住的人中包括了他的儿子Junior Rennie， 和他的朋友们。Junior 常常受到头疼的困扰，只是那时候他还不知道这其实是脑瘤引起的。同时脑瘤还影响了他的精神状态。他不仅在屏障出现的时候就开始殴打并勒死一个女孩，之后杀了另一个女孩。Big Jim对此情况一无所知，还在那之后让Junior加入了警齤察的队伍。
　　
　　在镇上的另外一边，本地报纸的编辑 Julia Shumway, 接到了来自陆军上校James O.Cox的通讯，他要Julia告诉Barbie与他联系。当Barbie 和上校联系上后，他要求Barbie充当政府的联络员，以便可以一起努力把这个现在被称作穹顶的屏障给消除。因为Barbie以前是寻找炸齤弹工厂的探侦员 （a former Bomb Factory Hunter）, 所以陆军上校Cox给了他在镇上寻找形成穹顶能量来源的任务。上校同时还预见到了这样的突发事件会给小镇带来的政治风波。凭借总统的指派，Barbie恢复了在军队的任职，并且还被提拔成了上校。Barbie还得到了关于准许他有不受小镇权限限制的法令公文。然而这项决定却遭到了Big Jim和他的那些被误导的随扈的阻挠。

   一边Big Jim在偷偷地鼓动和精心策划，利用居民们的不安和慌乱来达到他夺权的目的。而另一边，Barbie, Julia 和其他的一些镇上的居民在尝试阻止事情急剧的失去控制。在几次阻挠了Big Jim的事情之后， Barbie被栽赃诬陷了四起谋杀案，关了起来。他被控告谋杀了帮Big Jim的大型安非他命组织洗钱的牧师Lester Coggins, 原警齤察局长Duke的老婆Brenda Perkins(这两个人其实都是Big Jim杀害的)，还有两个被他儿子Junior杀害的女孩子。当Barbie在监狱的时候，镇上的一些居民追踪到了穹顶的源头在一座废弃的农场。农场里的装置强有力的指明穹顶的源头是来自于地球以外的。Big Jim对镇上居民的管制越来越苛刻，警齤察们滥用职权，这些都促使镇上的一些居民愤而起来帮助Barbie越狱，并且就在Junior谋杀Barbie的时候，救下了Barbie,杀死了Junior。
　　
　　这个半组织抵抗者团体逃到了废弃的农场。农场的很多人都触摸了那个奇怪的装置，并且感受到了幻影。他们不仅得出这个装置是被外星人给放在这儿的结论，并且这些外星“皮革头”（leatherheads）（这个外号从他们的外貌而来）还是一些年轻人，他们把穹顶的设置当成某种残酷的娱乐，就像是一个玻璃观察罩，捕捉有感知的生物以便捕捉者观察这之内发生的一切事物。

    在一个“探访日”，也就是穹顶外面的人可以和穹顶内的人在边缘见面的时候，Big Jim 派遣Randolph和一只警齤察小分队从Phil Bushey (Chef) 的手中重新夺回他对安非他命工厂的控制权。Chef之前阻止Big Jim 对安非他命工厂的掩饰，以及在那儿囤积了超过400罐的丙烷的事情。Big Jim 低估了Chef自卫的能力，以及他由安非他命所引起的妄想症。Chef和现在已经被驱逐的前首席市政委员Andy Sanders (他也在Chef的引导下使用安非他命)，一起用步齤枪来防卫他们自己和安非他命工厂。随之而来的枪战造成了很多人员的伤亡，在Chef也受了致命伤之后，他引爆了放在安非他命制作厂房的塑胶炸齤弹装置。结合了丙烷和制作安非他命时所用的化学物质，这场巨大的释放毒气的爆炸几乎把整个镇变成了一个火葬场。

   上千个镇上的居民很快地被烧毁殆尽的画面在国家电视台播放着，只留下了在废弃农场里的26个幸存者，一个藏在土豆窖里的农场孤儿，和躲在镇上的防辐射尘避难所里的Big Jim 和他的副官 Carter Thibodeau。 他们最终因为食物和水而开始攻击对方（而且Big Jim担心Carter在他们幸存后会变成指认他罪行的证人）。他刺死了Carter，并且肢解了他的尸体。但几个小时之后，Big Jim就被Carter的幻象引出了避难所，接触到了有毒大气后，也死了。而尽管穹顶外的军人千方百计的想要往里输入新鲜空气，在农场幸存的人们还是慢慢地被有毒气体窒息。
　　
　　Barbie和Julia 来到控制装置前祈求外星观察者能够放过他们。Julia与其中的一位女性“皮革头”联系上。这位外星人没有同龄人在左右，也就免于受到来自他们的压力。Julia重复地表达了他们是一群真实的有感觉的生物，并且也只有小小的一段生命时间。在与这位年少的女外星人分享了一次Julia童年惨痛的经历之后，她启发了这位外星人的慈悲之心。穹顶慢慢的升高并且消失，有毒气体驱散，而Chester’s Mill也最终得到了解放。

感想：

1.Dale感觉不像是概括中中所呈现的那么黑白分明，至少现在他涉及一项真正的命案，虽然到底是怎么回事还没有表明。
2.Angie不像书中所呈现的那么无关紧要，将会发生在她身上什么事情，很值得期待。
3.还有女副警长感觉也会在接下来的剧情推动上起到至关重要的作用。按照概括来看，她基本上要在狼堆里生存。

暂时就先这样。拍砖头的童鞋轻一点。我退下了。

ps.对翻译组的人们致以崇高的敬意，这么一小篇东西，翻译完还挺耗费心神。他们常年干这个，真不容易啊！

同事给我介绍的，说这剧好看！然后非常宏大地总结了剧情：外星人来到地球，用玻璃罩罩住一个小镇，讲的就是这个小镇的人们在这个玻璃罩里生活的故事。就像我们拿个玻璃杯罩住蚂蚁看他们的感觉。

嗯，在一个科幻的大背景下，说的其实是人性。我就喜欢这种题材的故事，人性是很复杂的东西，在正常的生活状态下，很多都被掩盖，在极端的环境影响下，人性各种非善非恶的灰色地带出现，非常值得玩味。

看了前几集，感觉还ok，节奏紧凑，情节合理。然后豆瓣上打了4颗星。而随着那个蛋的出现，故事就越来越扯了，完全在围绕着『蛋是干嘛的』『蛋在哪里』『蛋安不安全』『蛋会变成什么』展开。

而昨晚在优酷追完第13集，突然发现卧槽，季终了。我可以说粗口吗？

     看到7集真佩服自己有这样的耐性，那个帅哥变态怎么会因为一个那么丑的女的就变态了呢？！还有，那个女的怎么就那么蠢，她难道不知道不要激怒行凶者吗？真心想看她被那两父子奸杀！！最后居然还狗血般的把她放了！整个剧情那叫一个乱啊！刚开始出现这个透明罩难道就没有人想到囤积货品吗？在中国出个非典盐都能卖到500块一包，他们还能淡定的在酒吧喝酒，真是很佩服，看来他们是完全信任他们的政府啊！！
     还有，为什么在用导弹轰炸后没有反映，军方会不派一个人来视察轰炸后的效果呢？还有为什么没有各国科学家蜂拥而来争相想办法解决这个问题呢？还有为什么外面的人和部队不想办法控制里面混乱的局势呢？哪怕做个led大牌子不断和内部居民沟通啊～～出现这样的情况肯定会考虑内部居民该如何生存，至少媒体记着也会每天24小时拍摄内部居民的“大逃杀”的精彩画面啊！还有，里面块没有药品了，外面也不想办法教里面的居民如何生产自救，难道就看着一个镇的居民自相残杀吗？？那美国老百姓的税不都白交了吗！！！
     太多太多说不通的地方，可能本人不适合看这种没有逻辑的剧集吧！
