Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Knowing this is a Gareth Edwards film, "wars" will only have a screentime of about eight minutes. The rest will be a dreary melodrama about an X-Wing pilot and his wife and kids and his kooky old man uncovering a conspiracy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

publicist 4,643 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 Stop dodging the bullet. Demanding more awesome war scenes is just a knee-jerk fanboy reaction. Doesn't make stuff better - and GODZILLA wouldn't be any better with more behemoth destruction scenes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
#SnowyVernalSpringsEternal 10,265 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 I admire Edwards for avoiding the Transforms example and not stuff the entire last hour with scene upon scene of endless CGI destruction.He actually tried to build toward something and that's admirable.Sadly he wasn't able to make us care about the main characters Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
publicist 4,643 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 He just seemed genuinely disinterested in directing this stuff. It may have been studio urging to put it in and Edwards shot it, to hell with it. I guess such colossal movies always have to be compromised, even Cameron does it.

nightscape94 965 Posted April 19, 2015 Author Share Posted April 19, 2015 Based on the interviews with Edwards about the film, the movie was exactly what he wanted, and the studio gave him tons of room to make it that way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unlucky Bastard 7,782 Posted April 19, 2015 Share Posted April 19, 2015 The film is loaded with traditional Americana symbolism. Even Godzilla himself is a bit like Shane. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romão 2,274 Posted April 20, 2015 Share Posted April 20, 2015 We know the consequences of this heist, we don't know the fate of the characters or any developments. You know the outcome if this thing as much as you do with any historical movie or Super hero movie.I for one think this premise could be quite fun.
