Paul walking around in the open sun is a little bit weird visually given that the entire movie is constantly reinforcing how harsh the environment is. the entire palm tree scene can be fixed quite elegantly if they just filmed the scene a bit closer to day break so Paul walking around uncovered (and the gardener's line about the time of day) makes more sense. hell you could even dim the footage in post or ADR Paul saying something about the sunlight or whatever. there are a lot of tiny quibbles I have with the film and nearly all of them could have been fixed in the editing room. somebody needs to fire Joe Walker, kidnap Villeneuve and force him to release a 4 hr cut against his will

I was just thinking about the Villeneuve-Nolan comparison this morning, except in the opposite direction, I like V a lot more. his action cinematography and choreography is tighter, the sound mixing isn't dogshit, the emotional beats have more weight, and everything seems to indicate he's a decent person to work with

some of the color and atmosphere related complaints can be traced back to dp greig fraser, whose style lends itself to more washed out, "realistic" color grading (see also zero dark thirty, rogue one, and vice)—a clear departure from the style of dv's previous collaborator Roger deakins for br2049. the difference is jarring especially if you had br2 fresh on the mind while watching Dunc. In fairness, it seemed like a deliberate choice on dv's part: the color grading, the iconography of the set/costume design, and certain camera choices serve to reinforce the modern colonialism metaphor by evoking Hollywood's and the media's depiction of the Iraq war. also, deakins is one of the greatest cinematographers of our time so it's not exactly a fair comparison

Xiahou Dun posted:(Not you, generic "you" meaning "someone") pause the thread for a moment, because I was thinking about this just this morning and I need to write words about it to get it out of my system: it sucks that English speakers (esp. Americans) don't use the impersonal "one" construction anymore. "One goes to the store," "one follows one's own path," etc. it solves a lot of problems like this here where you need to spend extra words clarifying your usage of "you." but if you use it in conversation it makes you sound like a nutjob. it's bullshit! bullshit, I tell you kalel fucked around with this message at 06:52 on Feb 24, 2022 |

btw lol at people who actually thought that, because the voice actually is faithful to the spirit of the book's description as it relates to genetic memory of the maternal lineage if dunc haters had their way the voice would have a bunch of random modulations that take away all dramatic effect. it would sound like pewdiepie gargling a rabbit's rear end
