Check out the filmography of screenwriter Eric Heisserer. Some people have one remarkable passion project.

I recently came across on of those "so you don't to" blogs listing historical and cultural inaccuracies in the Shogun book by a western lifetime

kiimo posted:So I'm not trying to distract from it but our Fall Guy trailer went live today too It seems that more trailers are chopping up songs and using them to punctuate the trailer lately. I like it when the action in a trailer is synced to music (like gunshots or punches matching a drum beat) but the strange orchestral version of a pop song just playing bits of the chorus just doesn't work for me, and it seems to be in more trailers lately. On the other hand the movie does look like a lot of fun. AFewBricksShy fucked around with this message at 14:13 on Nov 3, 2023 |

He was a bounty hunter in the original series, this doesn't seem to hint at anything other than prat falling into situations.

I was worried it was going to be a Severance situation so I'm glad I kept watching. Severance rules so hard

I got the Severance vibes from that trailer, though I do like the sound of it having a good wrap up when we've still got who knows how long until Severance season two even starts filming.

It's started filming, I've seen pictures from the sets. I actually thought it was entirely filmed before the strike, but all the FX and additional work putting it all together would give them a release date in December/January. That was before the strikes, and I don't know what that all means but it seems like we're going to be waiting even longer.

Carthag Tuek posted:second season felt like treading water to me and then welp Yeah, I can understand that criticism. I was fully into it, though. Not really a spoiler but it could have done with another season; however, not tying a final bow on the emerging storyline didn't matter so much because emotionally, the show had said what it needed to, and that was fine with me.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ARndpfgm9Jo The Netflix description ends with "... forcing the survivors to become each other's best hope" which is a pretty good double entendre for what went down Also, Steve Mcqueen's new trailer dropping last week is some cosmically odd timing https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qOYrpk-A45s

Jedit posted:Honestly, the most amazing thing about the Asian Saga novels is how racist they're not. James Clavell spent three years in a Japanese POW camp and came home with severe PTSD from his mistreatment. Any pang of hunger could send him into a panic attack where he'd start rooting through dustbins looking for food. He wrote about it in his debut novel King Rat.

https://youtu.be/m2L-Sa_6MU0?feature=shared This isn’t the type of thing I normally notice but the number of shots in this trailer that either speed up or slow down while panning is insane?

I went to see Killers of The Flower Moon, but there was a Napoleon trailer before the feature. I appreciated this close artistic match If anything Ridley Scott gave it a bit more depth. the trailer itself is here https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LIsfMO5Jd_w

Their complaints are also pretty minor. “Marie Antoinette had short hair at her execution” and “Napoleon didn’t shoot at the Sphinx”. I mean, yeah, I guess, but I was hoping for something bigger. Like a post credit scene of President Thomas Jefferson showing up, “I’m looking to purchase some land...in Louisiana.”

I'm right there with him that he's creating art so he can do whatever the gently caress he wants, reality and history can go screw. That being said, I can really sympathize with the Sphinx one really getting under people's skin. Perpetuating that sort of long-debunked myth is a bit lazy, like the "humans only use 10% of their brains" thing. It's a valid pet peeve, sure, but Scott should feel free to use it if it's important to his narrative.

I'm not sure how I missed "All Dirt Roads Taste of Salt" but this looks amazing. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qiQvFKfpCi4 Takes place in rural Mississippi (where I grew up!) and immediately made me think of Malick/Tree of Life. Reviews are stunning (and it does seem to be an impressionistic style like ToL) and Raven Jackson is a poet so this is just scratching every itch for me. Can't wait to see it.

Not really a fan of self-aware "bad movies." The entire charm of bad movies is the earnestness of everyone involved thinking they're making a masterpiece
