SuperMechagodzilla posted:You approach the creation of an artwork as a technical problem to be solved, because you fear adversity. A screenplay is in some regards a technical problem to be solved - once the inspiration and germ of the story have arisen. Artistry without technique is doomed. I don't know how one works on better artistry; but one can work on better technique to realise the ideas one has. All this is leaving aside any discussion on to what extent a screenplay is a work of art. Manchester By The Sea? Maybe. Probably. At least to quite a high degree. Avengers: Age of Ultron? Uh, less so if at all (which is not to say it can't have elements of artistry). But almost no screenplay is wholly a work of art.

My YTOTD is a supremely talented pianist listening to video game themes and immediately playing them on piano awesomely. The channel its on has her doing this a lot with different themes, and it's just amazing how she can pull it off.

Armond White's misgivings aside, when he's on fire he comes up with some winners: "The Star Wars Generation — that unfortunate rabble primed to see these films at the precise moment they were becoming culturally responsive — are not necessarily the audience the movie brats deserved; they’re spawn of Baby Boomer affluence and narcissism. Star Wars turned their natural curiosity and wonder into self-satisfaction, artificially dependent on media and merchandising (a tragedy also evident in Apple and Pixar evangelism)." FCH reads more.. analytic, I guess? Honest Thief fucked around with this message at 12:49 on Jan 12, 2017 |

Actually "right" would be not writing an article about Weezer at all because who gives a gently caress about Weezer anymore?

Wait wait I got one more: You know that episode of King of the Hill where Bill dresses as Santa for Christmas and everyone thinks it's cute and he can't let go of that feeling so he starts dressing as Santa all year round and it gets really sad? That's Film Crit Hulk.

I think I can confidently say it's one of the worst movies I've ever seen. It actually had a lot going for it and some cool ideas. But then it also had some completely loving stupid bullshit that ruined the whole thing. I don't think could be fixed in editing, I think some pretty significant rewrites would be needed to salvage the good parts of it.

therattle posted:A screenplay is in some regards a technical problem to be solved - once the inspiration and germ of the story have arisen. Artistry without technique is doomed. I don't know how one works on better artistry; but one can work on better technique to realise the ideas one has. The issue, leaving aside that it's an Invader Zim fanfilm with the same estimated runtime as James Cameron's Avatar, is that CelticPredator approaches it as a purely technical problem. This means the concept of 'good characters' has already been set for him in advance by a dude calling himself MOVIE REVIEW HULK, who is 'apolitically' telling him that characters naturally are this, and 'acceptable' characters naturally do this. Implicitly, society itself has natural qualities. As a direct consequence, CelticPredator is now caught in a years-long process of refining what is, unwittingly, a recreation of Akiva Goldsman's A Beautiful Mind script - but set in a highschool. And 'silly'. The personal is political. Characterization without an understanding of socioeconomic contexts will certainly result in a cluster of essentialist cliches failing about in pursuit of cats to save. Why is the protagonist 'obsessed with the paranormal'? That's not uncontentious. You immediately/inherently have a conflict between the New Age ideology of MUFON (the extraterrestrial hypothesis - alien spacecraft actually exist and vibrate in from higher planes of reality or whatever) and the ideological critique of Magonia (the psycho-social hypothesis - alien beliefs are a form of 'cognitive mapping' to make sense of life under capitalism). That's where 'alienation' potentially takes on its full weight. Is the character ostracized because he's alienated, or alienated because he's ostracized? We can even go back a step and ask 'why highschool?' You have implicit Labyrinth / Shaun Of The Dead psychosexual narrative about 'putting away childish things' and becoming a contributing member of society. The zombies are just a plot device that vanishes from sight the moment we have the production of the couple. You can already guess that CP's script is about how to stop worrying, and love the bomb.
