Young Freud posted:Actually, "It's too bad she won't live - but then again, who does?" It took me until my fourth viewing of Blade Runner on TV to finally get into the film, and oddly enough it was the original narrated cut that did it for me. Obviously not my preferred version now but it did help me pay attention to what I used to think was a pretty but slow movie. caligulamprey posted:I loved the score to Sicario (I haven't seen Arrival yet but goddamn it, It'll probably be what I do on Christmas), but maaaaaaaaan I figured it might not be Vangelis so I had my fingers crossed Cliff Martinez instead of Johannsson. I wanted Vangelis again too but in interviews Johannsson is fully aware of what he has to live up to and Arrival had a great score too so I have faith.

Timby posted:Well, Gaff is in this one, Ana de Armas is Cuban, Barkhad Abdi is ... Somali, I think, and Lennie James is said to have a decent role... Yeah but with the heavy Asian influences of the original film you'd think that's something they could have expanded on too.

DC Murderverse posted:they apparently brought them in a few months ago (the article says July) but even then that's mayyyyybe 4 months. And it's not just Zimmer/Wallfisch finishing what Johannsson started, it says none of his work is gonna be in the movie. I'm thinking he was a bit behind, they brought ZimmFisch in to help him out, they tried to push him in a different direction and he told them to gently caress off and do it themselves. I would be perfectly happy if they just reused the score from the first movie.

Neo Rasa posted:I don't know what EON's timetable is or whatever but it would be really smart if they let Villeneuve take that break and then do it. They're locked in for a 2019 release, so it's already going to be 4 years since the last one and Craig is gonna be ooooold. Can't imagine they would wait.

They should get Pierce Brosnan back for a remake of Never Say Never Again and actually have Craig cameo at the end like they Connery and Moore originally wanted to do.

feedmyleg posted:Yeah, the anime short was rad but super derivative of the first film. Also felt a lot like the Second Renaissance shorts from Animatrix in that it's way more interested in giving background exposition than telling a story. Pretty, though, and cool. But the fact that it didn't even have original music was disappointing. It was scored by Flying Lotus?

Any reviews mentioning the score? I know it won't compare to the original's but it's distressing to me we haven't heard anything outside of the trailers which could very well be trailer specific music.

Shame, because I chose to see 2049 in IMAX instead. I got to see the Final Cut earlier in the year in cinemas and got a little stoned beforehand, and it was wonderful.

Vegetable posted:And of course, I've said this already, but the memory girl twist is awful. When K says "go meet your daughter," it's the worst thing ever. For a while I genuinely had no idea what he was talking about. It comes out of nowhere, it makes no sense, there isn't even the subtlest build up to it, it's absolutely half-baked. They explicitly spell it out for you earlier in the film though?

BarronsArtGallery posted:I think we're arriving at the conclusion that going to see a film high on substances might be fun because of the sensory experience, but you probably won't understand a lot of poo poo presented in the film, even on a basic level. I intentionally saw the film stone cold sober the first time so I could follow everything with the expectation that I'd see it again stoned as gently caress just to soak in the ambiance. AwkwardKnob posted:They kind of do though. I wouldn't have said explicitly, but they do infer it heavily if you've been paying attention to the clues carefully enough. I figured flashbacks revealing all the clues they laid out and then showing you it was the girl all along was pretty explicit.

Tenzarin posted:What would be their goal though? To make new robots in a factory that can breed or do some kind of upgrade on the other older models? It's like they are almost just doing the same thing the evil corporation Wallace guy is trying to do. At least hes trying to push humanity to the stars. The rebels are trying to pull a skynet on humanity. The main difference is that Wallace wants to keep them enslaved

Too bad we can't hear what the original Johannsson score was like as the scores for Arrival and Sicario were great, Villeneuve's reason for replacing it was that he wanted something more like Vangelis but even then Zimmer's score didn't really evoke that in me, maybe in a couple pieces. It's serviceable and suits the bleaker atmosphere of the film but I do wish they went for something more iconic.

DorianGravy posted:2) In the climatic fight, where exactly are they? It looks like there is some huge dam on the ocean-front, so are they on the outside of that? Why were they near it in the first place? Is the airport offshore? 2- I think it's a giant sea wall to keep the tides out due to sea level rise. 3- 'Her' did the same thing in a more sincere way. Dead Jedi posted:The music! The parts leading up to where K was talking with the hookers had annoying sounds I'd describe as a motor revving between high and low speeds, and it was drowning out the music. I'm fairly certain now that was part of the music. It is indeed part of the soundtrack. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Jm9ljyy9cE

I think parts of the score are basically slower, more ominous echoes of the Vangelis score. For example, Wallace's theme is an evil version of Damask Rose: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z_JgOlGq6i4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cZNjCQ_6Krw

I didn't mind Leto at first, but ever since I read that Bowie was Villeneuve's choice for Wallace I can't watch it again without imagining how much better he would have been. I think a more naturally eccentric person would have the gravitas to pull off the god complex without it seeming weird for the sake of being weird. I do really like his delivery of "Yes? No?" for some reason though. Cacator fucked around with this message at 04:41 on Jun 14, 2018 |
