kiimo posted:Well remember that trailers and movies are almost always color corrected by different people. It may be better in the theater I don't even mind it to be honest. It might not be totally original, but it's not like a "this is a memory" total sepia wash. As someone that is from super rural Mississippi... that's basically what it feels like. There's always a light coating of dirt and pollen floating in the air and combined with the extreme heat everything just *feels* yellow.

Sorry, someone got banned for being obnoxious in this very thread about Mel Gibson and they bought me this AV because I said Gibson is a racist piece of poo poo. I still need to change it.

It kills me that Baz just refuses to make films I have any interest in these days. I just want more wild and crazy 90s Baz, not things about Australia and Elvis.

I just always assumed the relevance of the term 'break out' was to describe the moment when a person's career first got them publicity rather than describing the moment they reached industry prominence or universal appeal  , but hey if I'm wrong then whatev

Vegetable posted:That sepia coloring for the childhood scenes is so bad lol. Elvis is a magnetic subject and I’m sure this movie will be more than competent, though. This rather looks like the early Kodachrome, later renamed Fox Nature Color, which was a red+green color system focusing on semi realistic skin and foliage tones. Almost period appropriate.

Scrolling thru the comments and it once again reinforces my impression that Elvis fans are some of the weirdest music fans to ever exist

one of the few things i ever had on vinyl that was worth money was a Canadian pressing of Elvis' last proper album, Moody Blue, with his loving killer version of "Unchained Melody" i never liked Elvis a whole lot, but he did a few things that were great... King Creole is defintely a legit good movie and the soundtrack (especially the song "Trouble") is really good... i hope the Baz movie includes some of that material where you see how Elvis was a huge influence on bands like The Cramps https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3wMLRBlLUOQ

Like, for example, Minnie Driver's 'breakout role' is not Good Will Hunting, or Grosse Point Blank, it's Circle of Friends...a movie nobody really cares about, but that's where she first got press. Ana De Armas was amazing in BR2049 and everyone thought so at the time.

Never understood (or watched) the point of biography films. They all have parts that are faked or added for drama.

The breakout role of Ana De Arma was being Ben Affleck's girlfriend. I think she's great, but she got more publicity from that then any movie she's done.
