#910369 Hello from France

Posted by Chaac on 14 June 2013 - 02:15 AM

I am pretty proud I can follow this conversation without any practical knowledge of French. I thank my Latin degree for making Romance languages passably understandable. :P

 

Carry on!

Let's hope Seth McFarlane and Neil DeGrasse Tyson can do his legacy justice.

 

I could definitely do with a nice science series in that style again.

I'm not asking for a "JW's 78' Superman" score, I'm asking for a better score.

 

Certainly not an "HZ's 13' Man of Steel" score.




#909383 Game of Thrones

I think finding Jon Snow a girl and them having sex was the worst thing they could do to the character. It not only feels a bit forced, it's missing the point of where the character can go, given that audience is not crazy for the girl as well. Hey the giants look cool, why can't we have more about the giants beyond the wall or whatever. And plan some actual evolution for the character.

 

Jon Snow originally seemed like one of the characters meant to, nay, designed to, be able to connect particularly well with the audience among many characters that don't really do that (and at first I thought it was too obvious). But not only he's had very little to do, his interaction with Ygritte isn't really making the character evolve and so far it feels like the typical Avatar plot that I hate (up to and including the rival tribal member). It's the mix between the odd writing and the actor himself. An alternative could have been making Ygritte a slightly different character who doesn't quite get this far with Jon Snow and falls to her death climbing the wall. That would feel more like GRRM seems to like it. Or at least the parodies of the guy.

I oficially hate this score.

At first I thought Jon Snow could become an interesting character but his random drift through the show is a bit disappointing, specially since he's one of the characters in the single most interesting location.

I think I'm going to stop trying to understand what Zimmer is saying in interviews...

 

Hans Zimmer could write voice overs for Malick movies.

Not bad, except it looks like Harrison is holding a leaf-blower :P

"Why is Alice Eve in her underwear, gratuitously and unnecessarily, without any real effort made as to why in God's name she would undress in that circumstance?" Lindelof responded. "Well there's a very good answer for that. But I'm not telling you what it is. Because... uh... MYSTERY?"

 

ROTFLMAO

Yeah, but my point is STID, no matter how daft, is an enjoyable romp. Which is what Star Wars, not Star Trek, is all about.

I'll settle for no less than a trascendental experience that cures cancer.

#902219 The Official Future Films Thread

Posted by Chaac on 10 May 2013 - 04:10 AM

That is the single coolest thing my eyes have witnessed in a while.

 

I love the imagery that Cuarón is using, the to current aeronautic technology (is that a desintegrating Soyuz or something else?) and the looks of low Earth orbit.

 

And the free fall mayhem is obviously cooler than anything in most other films set in space. ;)

 

Poor space station :mellow:
