Gyges posted:So is T'Challa wearing vibranium lined shoes or something in that clip? When he does his kick and his parkour jump there's a metallic mechanical sound. Though his first kick sounds oddly like the sound of kicking one of those red dodge balls inside a gym. I thought vibranium absorbed sound, though.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:You want to know where it comes from, casting all these pro wrestlers in movies. Every other wrestling move looks totally unnatural but the way they choreograph these fights always seems like someone is about to get powerbombed. Spectre had a prime scene for Craig to get put through a table and they just squandered it. I'm the same about choke slams. They are the most basic and most awesome wrestling moves, where there is no doubt about anything that's going down. A guy grabs another guy by the throat, bodily lifts him up and then slams him into the ground. It's totally ridiculous for a number of reasons, like how does the slamee's head even stay attached, and wouldn't just crashing the guy's larynx be much easier if you already got him by the throat and are strong enough to lift him? But all of that doesn't matter, it's purely about visually expressing power and ferocity. And yet there are so few examples of choke slams done right in movies.

Sorry for asking this again, but I'm genuinely curious and a quick google search isn't helping. Trailer edits are really common and a lot of the time they really don't look as good as the full scene does. So why do it? Tons of studios do and it makes no sense if the intent is to show a "clip." They confirmed that the 1 minute scene they showed at the MTV awards was edited from a 1:41 scene, which makes sense because they needed a one minute clip for the event. But if you are just releasing a clip online then why edit the clip down to be exactly 1 minute like this scene was? There's no reason an online only clip has to be exactly 1 minute or 30 seconds. The internet is not short on space, you can just release the 1:41 second version without the weird cuts. Is there something I'm missing?

Civil War is certain to be a worse film than BvS, because in this still frame an extra is loking the wrong direction or something.

HUNDU THE BEAST GOD posted:Cause it's easier for the intern to do, probably. Nah, a bunch of it is a lot of back and forth between stakeholders who know nothing about editing, or maybe the director wasn't involved, so in the end the cuts approved look like crap, because that's what someone down the hierarchy wanted.

Oasx posted:Nobody in their right mind thinks that Black Widow was talking about being infertile when she called herself a monster. I mean, people have believed much dumber poo poo in these threads, but this one isn't even that much of a stretch. Banner is talking about how he can't have kids, then BW mentions her own infertility followed pretty much immediately by "you're not the only monster". At the very least it was a clunky way to get across what they were trying to say with that scene, and while there was definitely some overreaction it's not like the confusion was limited only to insane idiots.

SolidSnakesBandana posted:I want to see more people talk about "what they would do" in some more fight scenes. In my senior year of college, I had to get a new roommate setup because most of my old ones had graduated. The one remaining roommate suggested we get a triple with another of his friends, and I agreed, having met the guy a few times and having no immediate problems with him. They were mostly pleasant guys, but they could be unbearable when I was trying to sleep. One night at something like 3 AM, I heard a bunch of sounds of clattering and crashing in the common room, so I marched out there, groggy and pissed off. Turns out these clowns had just blazed it and were having some impromptu wrestling matches This felt especially assholish of them, given that the one who'd also been my roommate last year should have remembered the saga where the people living above us that year kept making it impossible for us to sleep by crashing around late at night and left us a note threatening to set us on fire when we tried to get them to stop. So anything that even resembled their behavior should've been on the top of his list to avoid, but whatever, nobody makes their best decisions when they're high So I asked them as politely as I could to stop, pointed out that there were people below us, and so on. They agreed in principle, but demanded that if I wanted them to stop, I'd have to defeat both of them in wrestling matches. I was way too groggy to argue and knocking over some stoners didn't seem like the hardest thing in the world, so I agreed. First guy stepped up, I got a single leg takedown on him in about five seconds. Both of them lost their poo poo, next guy stepped up, I just kinda pushed him over in about three seconds I was about ready to go back to bed, confident that I'd solved the problem, but they told me to hold up because they had one last request, just one more, they promised. They were both losing their poo poo at the next-level martial arts I'd just busted out on them, and wanted to know what the names of the martial arts moves I'd used were. I didn't have the heart to say "Dude I just pushed you over because you're high as a kite, that's not martial arts", so I told them the single leg was called a Serpent Rush and the shoving was called a Burning Palm. They lost their poo poo even more upon hearing that, but finally held up their end of the bargain and went to sleep I guarantee you that, to this day, whenever one of them watches a fight scene, they think to themselves "Yeah, if I was in this fight, I'd just do a Serpent Rush"

In hindsight the jar of piss scene was really easy to understand, but viewing it for the first time I get why people didn't connect the dots; because BvS is painfully boring and therefore hard to follow.

He spends the whole film trying to assert his dominance over everyone and bending them to his will, but she tells him to gently caress off and refuses to budge so in the end the best he can muster is a crude callback to something she'd said earlier and just flat out murdering her. It reveals what a spiteful, inadequate man he is beneath all his moral grandstanding about the nature of power and all that.

computer parts posted:Case in point. Well for one, it kills the dramatic tension of the scene for some by the scene by taking them out of the film. I'm sure the intent was to make the viewer go "gasp! Some poo poo is about to go down!", but my reaction was more along the lines of "I paid $10 to stare at a jar of piss on the big screen, this is dumb." The subsequent explosion became more of a relief that the scene was over than whatever was intended. Unless that was the intent all along, then Henry Cavill's "did someone just fart?" expression makes a lot of sense because he can probably smell every particle of poo poo, piss, and human remains that just got vaporized around him with his Super nose or whatever. At worst it continues the vaunted Hollywood tradition of having strong female characters sexually humiliated for shock value, in this case immediately before said character is killed off to provide pathos to the male protagonist. While I'm sure that wasn't Snyder's intent (just like the Whedon thing) the scene absolutely can be read that way, which makes it a bad idea to include when they could have almost certainly come up with a million other ways to set up their clever callback without those connotations.
