2 Questions, 1. Which film has best overall use of sound- a combination of good speaking on the part of the actors, excellent editing and a soundtrack that complements the film? 2. Which one aspect of this film is the best aurally? My answers... 1. Pi. 2. The scene where he's freaking out on the subway and that high pitched noise comes in when he prods the brain. |
||||||||
|

I can think of loads but yep, I agree on Pi. Especially through a nice surround system on DVD..... yum. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
Pi does rule but for me it has to be........ 1. Leon 2. Just seems to fit so well. It's sublime to me. |

Yeah Pi has very good sound !!! Allso Starwars ::Just read the topic "OMG that sound in Episode II" A good example of the amazing sounds in the starwars movies. Heat:: The big shoot out on the streets is amazing soundwise. The Alien movies::lots of cool sounds Listen to the guns , very original sound that really describes the "high speed" of the firing. |

LOL! Nice avatar mate. :) |

It's bent. I have it on DVD and I have a surround system, but none of the DVD player software I have seems to work with it. I did used to have some DVD software where it worked, but after the "upgrade" (which it won't let me roll back from) I have an inferior player w/o dolby 5.1 support. |

Yeah the big heat shootout is probably my favourite scene of any film. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
It's the sheer length of it and the raw feel to it. It doesn't feel like some Hollywood shootout to me. |

oooh allso the scene with the cave troll in Lord Of The Rings has very clever use of sound. The music stops during the action and that makes it more intense and scary . And the music starts again when Frodo gets hit , and the effect is very dramatic. Clever man that Peter Jackson. A similar "non music" effect is used in Bravehart and Saving Private Ryan during the blody battle scenes for a more intense and realistic effect. Maybe Jackson was inspired by that? |

I love his film Braindead. The cheesy music sets the tone of the film so well. It's great |

the cell,its the only movie ive ever seen where u can HEAR everything u SEE,even footsteps and breeding....brilliant |
||||||||

YES! I forgot about that film. Excellent stuff |

Pi: I agree with what Ceri said. Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon: Towards the end when Chow's character and the princess are fighting in the trees. The sounds their swords make when everything goes into slow motion is nice, I think. |
||||||||

Yes that scene is very cool !!! It would be nice to be able to fool the laws of gravity like they do from time to time in the movie. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Indeed, it would be. |
||||||||
|

Btw, that GIF you've got there is great. |

Thanx =) |

Did you make it yourself? |

The Life Of Brian - the song at the end: "Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life" To me, that scene says more about the human condition than other film I've seen. Don't ask me exactly what it says, but I just think it's incredibly poignant and I always feel like crying when I watch it. And it's funny, rather than being a load of pretentious bullshit like a lot of other films I could mention. |

|
|
Yep !! Last Night. I make all my GIFs myself , its fun =) |
||||||||
|
|

||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Looks like fun. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah that is a great and original ending to the movie. The movie is not even a musical haha !! |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
The Star Wars prequels have done a great job w/ sound design so far. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I use Ulead Gif Animator 5 and Photoshop (of course) Its a great program. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I shall have a play with them then andsee what I can aome up with. Thanks for the info. |
||||||||

|
Your pic is cool btw =) |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
Thanks. Can't take credit for it though. found it on b3ta.com they did a Photoshop challenge for Mr McDOnald and tis was there and I couldn't resist. |

Saving Ryans Privates....the beach landing is sound-tastic. Bullets zipping, hanks going deaf , tank noises......class stuff really...I agree with "pi" too also....who can forget Raging Bull...the camera flashes have gorgeous sounds |

Ceri, when I read your questions I was thinking of the exact scene from 'Pi' that you mentioned before I scrolled down to see that you had written it. |
||||||||

The sound of the lightsabers in the Star Wars movies. Two whole generations have run around cutting their friends to pieces whilst imitating the classic "Pswooshhh Hummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm" I think it qualifies as one of the best sound effects ever in cinema. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah thats a great sound. Also the Tie fighters roar is classic (sounds in space???) |
||||||||
