Has anyone seen this? As good as the hype? I was watching Last Samurai last week and there were some idiots behind me who sarcastically said" that looks good" when the trailer for Big Fish finnished. They also kept on sighing everytime there was a break in the action in Last Samurai. I swear there are some idiots who go to the cinema. I'm thinking of getting the soundtrack for Big Fish, i love Danny Elfman's music but haven't got any of his music yet. You think this one is worth getting? |

I would suggest Edward Scissorhands OST. I haven't seen Big Fish yet so I really can't reccomend the OST. |

our local independant cinema closed down recently, and the local paper sarcastically wrote 'will be remembered by all 2 customers'. Anyone would think the mainstream cinemas show all the best films. Its like music, if you just take what is fed to you, you miss out on all the good stuff. |

oh yeah, Edward OST is awesome, it took me 3 years to get it...:) |

I was watching Last Samurai last week and there were some idiots behind me who sarcastically said" that looks good" Fuck them, those idiots wouldn't know a good director if Tim Burton jumped out of the screen and slapped them across the face. Its people like that, that bring this planet down. |

the movie was great. there is another Big Fish thread around here someplace with many positive comments.. as for the soundtrack, i wasn't really paying attention to it enough to form an opinion other than i don't remember it being very traditionally danny elfman-ish. |

Edward Scissorhands, love that film. Probably my favourite Tim Burton film so far. The bbc reviewed Big Fish and said it was the best film of his career... |

You wanna know something sad by the way? I had a local CD store order me the Edward Scissorhands OST a few years ago, and the damn thing turned out to be defective, it skipped big time between tracks 12-14, and the fucking bastards wouldn't order me a new one, they were all sceptical as though I was trying to pull something. Needless to say, I haven't shopped there ever again. |

yeah i know, there was a scene in the film where Watanabe's character said "this temple has been here for thousand of years" and the kid behind me said "and?". |

i've been looking foward to this film. it's not playing here yet, next month i think. the edward scissorhands soundtrack is one of my favorites...i have great expectations for big fish. |
||||||||
|

|
|
I just want to make sure that it's like dark and wierd and fucked up like his good movies and not like the planet of the apes remake. Can anyone answer this w/o spoilers? |
||||||||
|
|

|

Oh yeah, I did I mention I got stuck with the defective copy? On a different note, wasn't a track from the Edward Scissorhands OST played during the Trailor of Batman Returns? I think it was "The Tide Turns". |

im really looking forward to seeing this movie. from what ive heard its fuckin rad. a friend of my mom's who is a huge film buff said its a little disconnected feeling at the beginning, but the last half hour is amazing. or something along those lines. im waiting to get some herb so i can see it stoned, that will be very good im hoping |

there was a track from edward scissorhands playing in the big fish trailer i saw. anyone know if any music from edward scissorhands is actually used in the movie? |
||||||||

it's really nothing like his other movies. there is some element of the bizarre cinematography but it's not as obvious. this is his least stylistic film yet. it's more about storytelling. classic story telling like Twain, and Carrol. It's his most "touching" movie so far as well, but it is done in a very tasteful way, not like some disney movie or some fucking Zemekis movie. |
||||||||

yep its not twisted or anything like some of his other stuff. (for the most part, there may be one or two creepy scenes..:D) its just very very creative. great stories. |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
not that i dont like his twisted side |
||||||||
|
|

twisted is betterr, i'm sorrrry. |

hey, speak of the devil, isn't that chick in Big Fish? She looks a lot like the girl who plays young Sandra Bloom... Alison something? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah, it's her. alison lohman |
||||||||
|
|

| |||||||||
|
|
yea, i have to agree.. as much as i liked big fish, i still love nightmare before christmas infinitely :D |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
i fell asleep during nightmare before christmas. it's the only time i've ever fell asleep at the theatre. |
||||||||
|

Wow, must have been a comfortable theater. The theaters around here have the most uncomfortable seats ever, not to mention they are so damn close together you bump elbows with whoever sits next to you. They need to put some damn recliners in theaters especially for the high ass prices. |

big fish is not dark, weird or fucked up at all. it's actually very sweet, but with a huge imagination. it manages to build a powerful emotional climax with a happy ending (admittedly with a burtonesque twist) that feels neither forced or clichéd. it's a story of real people, an astonishing fantasy, and a fascinating parable about reality and identity all at once. i was concerned that my expectations were too high, and yet my expectations were exceeded. not everyone will like it, but some of you are going to be blown away... |
||||||||

i agree. *minor spoiler* i like how it kind of ties up all the loose ends and justifies the rambling, tangent-wandering tendency of the plot toward the end. the spider bit was pretty dark/creepy. but yo i hate fukin' spiders. |

i just saw this and loved it, my mates did too. |
