i reckon this could be made to get rid of aliasing in sound or have it if you want but no one has applied it yet to software cos its a bit esoteric |

cool video |

it links in to what i know about information density being proportional to area rather than volume |

That was an interesting video. I think math is steps of computation. So you can only be as precise as the number of steps taken to compute the next value (like constantly dividing 1 in half.. saw a video where they rolled out like a mile long paper of pi computed to that many digits.. actually at that length the possibility of error in any of the computation steps gets higher and higher after that many steps so the precision sort of naturally gets fuzzy by that alone) or until the paradigm breaks down (a trees branching fractal shape is eventually a branch, or divide matter in half repeatedly and you eventually have 1 molecule. I think reality might be like computer bytes where numbers can't go on forever, but are limited by the number of possible placeholders (like 0-255 max for a byte, after that it overflows). And maybe there's no such thing as analogue and everything is digital at a micro level... or who the hell knows. |

^ yes its an interesting thought, its weird how it sort of gets into the realms of philosophy from such a relatively simple question cos out understanding is incomplete, I wonder if it will ever been solved, it seems like one of those intractable problems from the outset |

So yeah just come back from rouge one, overall I enjoyed it probably the last 45 minutes made me enjoy it more than force awakens, the space battle bit was fantastic, just superb. Film had some problems, firstly think felicity Jones seemed a bit out of her depth, not terrible but not remembereable, seemed there were a few too many superfluous main characters that I didn't even know the names of throughout the film "lets take Chakan and takka Jett with us to wimblambolo" |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the guy with the bad arm at the beginning who was killed by calamari andore was a very bad actor/over actor" the fact all the main cast died at the end and their wasn't a forced romance was great I liked Disney had some balls with that |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Main bad guy Krenndick was memorable, good villan The CGI was weird sort of in uncanny valley for Peter Cushing and especially Carrie Fisher, needs a few more years to get more natural but passable I guess. The best thing was the 70's future aesthetic in costumes and locations, I think they nailed that very well, better than force awakens |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I liked the new Mon Calamari Admiral and his crew a lot he had a cool capital ship I liked seeing new tie fighter designs I liked when that alien blew the leg off that ATAT with what looked like an ion cannon |

Forrest Whittaker, couldn't seem to decided on how he wanted his accent, one word sounded Jamaican Yardie, next it sounded American. plus his Character wasn't very likeable, and he just decided to die for no apparent reason, although he did seem to be cracking up. I kind of liked the Donnie yen Character more than I thought although the characters of his ilk had far few dialogue scenes or backstory, its just this is a cool looking kung fu temple guard who is strong with the force, the other guy with the big gun had even less. The capture imperial pilot seemed like a tweaky meth addict. There seemed to be too man rebel alliance soldiers with estuary/London accents |
||||||||
|

|
|
Mads Michelson is such a great actor I think he might have been wasted, he would have been great as the main good guy, although I didn't mind that Cassian Andor guy though |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the bit near the end where Darth Vader starts totally destroying rebels was superb, great action sequence, the film was well directed from and aesthetic. cinematographic point of view I think the lack of great Dialogue interaction between characters was the weak point, it seemed like an amateur dramatics does star wars at some points |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
the end with vader was the best bit carries head was too wide....if you look at the actress who wore the tracking points her head was too wide for the job. i wonder if Carrie was upset by this, she always said her head looked too wide due to the pom poms. i thought it was just me that didnt know the names. Was that main actor mumbling ? some great scenes though. they will probably redo the cgi later. it was fun but boring at times. I gotta see it again, to see the bits i missed. |

Diego Luna! i couldnt understand much he said |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes the script was pretty bland the dialogue and I was bored for the large middle part of the film, the ending was fantastically entertaining, if only it had a script and actors of original star wars it could have been a great film rather than just decent Yes Diego Luna talks like he has a mouth full of coco pops |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Mumble wars yes that was genuinely good, they didn't need vader in earlier in the film, it seemed superfluous to the plot, he seemed just jammed in there for no apparent reason, at the end though it was great |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I kind of liked Diego Luna but yeah couldn't understand a god damn word and it wasn't because of his accent, the imperial pilot was a very boring under developed character, he looked like he should be in an episode of casualty rather than a star wars movie |
||||||||
|

also the death star is powered by kyber crystals like light sabre Khyber == khyber pass == up the ass? so where are they mining it, bantha poodoo? also disappointed there was no cameo of the pit of saarlacc |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
lol pit of saarlacc cameo. before he went below the sand and was still flying ships. : ) so it wasnt just bad sound quality in my cinema. it was his voice. to be honest i wanted more Vader. im gonna see it again with family at a different cinema. there were so many amazing cgi bits.. like the atat bits : ) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hyper the weakness of the death star was a great idea. the builder building it against his wishes so leaving a weakness. i love all that stuff. i wonder who made the second death star weak? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and yes that actor was great. the designer/builder man. |
||||||||
|
|

dale winton? |

|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
If i designed it i would have put in a secret self destruct sequence, but i suppose that would have been found out, yes the super death star had the weakness of being able to fly several sizable ships down towards the core, but thats a plot contrivance so I dont worry about it too much, perhaps if they managed to finish it they could have put some sort of grill over the tunnel. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was worried i said Deigo Luna rather than Diego |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes he looks like the sort of guy who would design a death star |

plinkey is right I didnt know their names or get much chemistry. i just wanna go to the 70s and see star wars ...then re-join the que all day long and live off pop corn and get a nice tan in the sunny street with a star wars t-shirt on. I hope i have enough money when i get there. i bet it will be the best time in life that can ever have been..: p |

you know there is something wrong when r2d2 has better dialogue and more memorable scenes than the lead cast of rouge one. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I really like the treadwell droid scene, |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
watched this again yesterday the ending where the girl and guy hold hands at the end is really beautiful, glad they didn't put a shit love story in the ending rocks so hard,with the space battle and battle on a tropical planet thanks to you guys some of the dialogue started to make sense, i.e kyber crystals |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
^ yes the space battle was like a 45 minute erection |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm not a star wars fan at all but |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
^ its great and very nicely done, a large part of me things its the nadir of merchandising in general, what next rouge one bog roll |

hang on...hang on!!! at the end of rogue one. I just realised...face palm.. i was thinking hang on .....at what point does the star destroyer swallow up Leia´s ship, so she has to give r2 the message for ben?. but no...i just realised she goes into Hyperspace!! that means the story could essentially go on for a couple more movies before a new hope. vader has to catch up with her ship and board it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
could the following movie or moives have a more leia and vader in them? it just seems a bit weird to leave rogue one like that. in rogue one, leias ship was captured in the star destroyer ( as it was in a new hope)..but she and her crew managed to escape and light speeded away.!!! so ...what next? the star destroyer catches up and recaptures her vessel again??? Or have they rewritten the history in Rogue one? so instead of R2 taking the plans to ben luke, han ...and so forth ..Leia instead bypasses all that history by escaping vader and Light speeded her way straight to the rebel base?? my head hurts |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ina new hope vader boards leias ship.wanting¨... the plans they sent you¨ ¨ were on a diplomatic mission to Alderaan!!!¨ EH?? She just escaped on that ship. Vader watched it escape...he light sabered 20 men of that ships crew to death? !!!!! rogue ones ending does not make sense. Am i missing something? : / |
||||||||
|
|

they escaped !! |

Kathleen Kennedy Says There Will Be No 'Rogue One' Sequel |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
^ for the best really a sequel would be storm troopers cleaning up the chared remains of the rouge one crew, actually id really like a kitchen sink star wars drama, the boredom of being an imperial minion cleaning up after incompetent commanders, the fear of being in proximity of lord vader, discussions of the moral landscape. Directed by Wim Wenders or something |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
would be an unusual star wars movie. one to have a few cupsa a tea too. Did you realise at the end of r1 that the movies ending did not match to a new hopes start? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
how did the ending differ? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i typed too much didnt i. r1 = Leia got the plans, escaped vader, and went to light speed. A new hope....leia did not escape, plans given to r2, leia was taken away and imprisoned in deathstar. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
hence all my waffle above when i realised. |
