Not the twist itself, but the “where are they now” text and freeze frames, but I guess it was trying to play into the comic book role. You guess?! The whole movie is a superhero origin story but you dislike it when it plays with that? OAJWF! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bollemanneke 3,334 Posted February 9, 2018 Share Posted February 9, 2018 Divergent. Hunger Games, Maze Runner, Divergent... What is it that people like about teenagers fighting each other in dystopian societies? The first half was all right, though I quickly became tired of the countless scenes in which Four stalked Tris. I got bored during the second half, but have to admit that the third act really surprised me pleasantly, though some of it was predictable and I do think that the movie was too fast-paced and that they were trying to put too much into it. Some parts were rather cheesy as well, but I guess that if the boys got Maze Runner, the girls deserved Divergent. Tom Holkenborg's score was all right and I especially liked the non-action parts. Why can't that guy just use his proper name, though? Does he think Junkie XL sounds so much better or will using nicknames be the next phase in the hype surrounding Hans Zimmer's associates?

bollemanneke 3,334 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 Jurassic World. Jurassic Park was great. The Lost World was boring and I only remember one scene from Jurassic Park III. By that time, my mind was made up: you can only make one good film to prove that mankind should not breed dinosaurs, so I thought this one would be the same all over again... and it was, but this time I enjoyed it. There wasn't a dull moment anywhere, though I'm really starting to wonder how many films they'll still make that contain a scene in which a man holds out his hand to a woman and the woman bravely walks off on her own. Hollywood, I know perfectly well women are equal to men. You clearly don't. Even Giacchino's score amazed me. This will probably become my favourite Jurassic score after Jurassic Park. I really loved the 'Christmas-y' parts and John Williams' old themes were a joy to hear again as well, though Giacchino's new theme isn't memorable (it does work) and as usual, the lack of reverb reduces the excitement dramatically.

The CD booklet notes say that the original premise was "put Dean Martin inside Jerry Lewis". It's a fun ride, with possibly - no, probably - the weirdest line of dialog I've ever heard.

Gruesome Son of a Bitch 6,488 Posted February 11, 2018 Share Posted February 11, 2018 I'm watching A Night to Remember. It's on YouTube. I've always enjoyed this one for being reasonably accurate to the history as opposed to Cameron's, which was more the legend of Titanic. It's also fun to track the evolution of shots and lines from the 1997 movie which were copied directly from here. You can never have enough Titanic. One of these days, I'll have to revisit the 1996 TV movie... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
