I have one for Frozen. So at the end of the movie, we find out that Elsa can control and even reverse her power by expressing happiness/joy. Well during the whole Let it Go song, she seems pretty loving happy, why doesn't she accidentally end up reversing some ice stuff and discover that ability much earlier?

Obviously she had to unfreeze it herself as noone else knew about her power, or even got suspicious. Anna's memory was wiped, but not Elsa's.

Did she put some fear into the people who chopped the wood and cooked the food and emptied the chamber pots?

The Clone Wars into Rebels cartoons actually do have Dark and Light sides that balance each other, not just The Force with the dark side being cancer.

I think one of my favorite explanations for the weird sword fight bullshit we see in the prequels is that Ben is literally not thinking about what he's doing. It's why he's pretty much unbeatable as an opponent, because he just sort of lets the force move his blade around for him. It was in some novel (I can't recall which one, might have been the novelization of ep2) where he just kind of turns off himself and trusts completely in what the force wants him to do. Dude doesn't have a game plan, he just starts swinging and lets his version of Jesus take the wheel.

I think it was one of the lead-ins to ROTS (there were three that occur to me: the Genndy Tartakovsky Clone Wars cartoon; a novel by James Luceno; and a comic series) where he's on a planet and gets high on some spores he inhales by accident.

Something that's kind of stupid about Gangs of New York is how partway through the movie there's the big scene where Amsterdam's plot to kill Bill is foiled and Bill takes a hot iron to his face saying how he'll be scarred and be worthy of being in Barnum's freakshow. Then like 10 minutes later all he has is a small scar on his cheek that is barely noticeable.

DDL actually has two eyes, so they fitted him with a scleral shell. There's a scene in the movie where the character uses his knife to tap himself on his glass eyeball to be intimidating and poo poo. Lewis loving *taps himself in his actual eye*. That man is terrifying.

Think of how Tyrion Lannister should look and why you'd care about it. It's aesthetics. And possibly how long an actor should sit in the makeup department getting gross stuff applied to their face.

If Daniel-Day-Lewis played Robespierre he'd method act his way the guillotine and earn a posthumous oscar.

He refused to drop character during production of Gangs, and even took butchery classes to play a butcher more realistically. For The Last of the Mohicans, the man got swole, learned how to survive in the woods, and learned how to make his own loving canoe. He's incredibly compelling in any role because he puts an insane amount of research and work into his craft.

Plenty of actors do great work and don't do any of that poo poo. By that metric, Jared Leto is incredible because apparently he sent used condoms and bullets to cast mates to get into character as the Joker. Is Daniel Day Lewis just walking around during lunch breaks pretending to be a gangster?

Gorilla Salad posted:Fine, if we're doing the prequels, why didn't Anakin ever go back and free his mother or ask his girlfriend (a loving queen) to buy her freedom? His mother was freed. She married a dirt farmer, and was out on her own when the sandpeople kidnapped her. This is important because Anakin whole deal going forward is that he wants to control the future. If he frees Padme she will die, like his mother did.

To ad to the whole star wars thing, why when jedi are more common doesn't anyone use a gun with lead bullets? I can't imagine they would be that much worse than the lasers and if you find yourself against a jedi they sure as gently caress can't block it.

There's a difference between what Lewis does and what Leto did. Lewis learns the skills and takes on the handicaps of the person he's playing so that as little as possible of his performance is fake. Leto wanted to do the same thing when he was cast as the Joker, but decided to imitate a madman by being an rear end in a top hat.

He laughed, because he said, you know, "I'm one to talk." And then he was actually the first one that told me about risking his life every night jumping whatever it was twenty feet in the last act of Hamlet. And the truth of it is I didn't just stay up three days and three nights for the scene; it was a good excuse, because these were the days of wine and roses in Studio 54. On the one hand, it's a great moment, illustrating two actors' different approaches. On the other, they were both just talking poo poo.

The Expanse (books, haven't seen the show yet) handle traditional firearms well. In a 0-g environment, that recoil that we always see movies do is actually a thing. They handwave it with recoilless handguns (I would love to see a handheld Carl Gustav) but they treat ships accelerating correctly so hey. E: Star Wars is specifically a long rear end time ago in a galaxy far far away. A galaxy where they haven't progressed past a semi feudal system and a galaxy where they elected Jar-Jar Binks the senator of whatever. Sure they have blasters and lightsabers but do you think they actually understand how to make them? Remember these morons made Jar-Jar Binks the head of something important. goatsestretchgoals has a new favorite as of 12:16 on Jan 8, 2017 |
