I know I know..there's been threads about it..but did anyone notice..the graphic, architectural, product and production design in there...it's so cool..so now! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
it was way awesome. I liked the vibe of that whole movie, the camera work and the audio worked really well together.... that scene in the ailse with all the blood! That was mega great! |
||||||||

|
one bit of soundtrack where Robin Williams goes into the little Boy's Room is almost like glitch, click stuff..that wont be out of place on Vespertine.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and the fetishistic..close ups of the equipment..the fluids through the tubes..the juxtaposition of Text and Numbers....is the director the guy who directed some of the Manic Street Preacher Videos.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
now that you mention it, the whole score kinda sounded like vespertine, very minimal click beats with a lot of arranged strings. I really like that style of music |
||||||||
|

Manic Street Preacher Videos? that sounds cool |
||||||||
|
|

yeah, the more I hear about this movie the more I'm tempted to see it...gotta try and fight my natual insinct to puke when seeing Robin Williams; people I trust tell me he's great in this but I'm wary, you know, it's not to easy forgive him for old crimes... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
I was quite repelled by Robin William's spate of movies until Insomnia...he's great here..very low key understated..just like the whole movie...the film really is the triumph of composition and design over dramatic substance...most of the drama is generated via the character interaction to and with in the sterile and clinical design of the environ...and ofcoarse the music and sound track say a whole lot more than pages of dialogue or over acting ever could... |

I'm not a big fan of his either but I thoroughly enjoyed this movie! |

not Manic Street Preachers..but he did shoot the vid for NIN Closer |
||||||||

cool...I'll check that out tonight...time to go to work :(... |
||||||||
|

|
|
umm..the site is not that hot..except for the very cool opening page... it's almost like the opposite of the instances where the websites outshine the movies..for eg..Center of the World..etc...but for a movie so rife with inventive design..the site is diaappointing..so much cooler.. |

did you see that movie yesterday? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I noticed that. Sounded like Pole or summat. Not too keen on the film, though Williams was good. It was all a bit too cliched and when he said about being abused at the end I was like "Yeah, roll out the cliches". |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tonight bird tonight.it just started.. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yep I agree the abused bit at the end seemed so tacked on...hence my original post..it's all about the design baaaby:) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yeah, I DID like the aesthetics. All that white, the light and his clothes. And to be a sexist pig, the guy's wife was sooooooo beautiful. Oh yeah. That's another point. All the family photos were way too glossy and looked like fashion mag shoots. I'm a fussy bastard aye? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well what about the husband..all sunken cheeks and pouty lips...with photogenic bastards like that..how can the photos look anything but glossy fashion shoots? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
They were hardly a Mike Leigh family were they? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well the yanks cant stomach..ugly/real all that well...I actually cant believe some writer was going on about the Sopranos being an ugly lot...and I was..like riiiight.... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Well, they ARE fat Itis in white vests. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but what about the women... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Oh, I'm far from a male chauvinist pig who treats women as sex objects but Meadow and Adrianne are honeys. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
bingo... |
||||||||

I totally agree about the production design of the movie. It was beautiful. The signage in SAV*MART, the photographic equipment. the AGFA product placement, and the nice close ups of the developing process. It's very Mark Romanek. If you've ever seen the video for Fiona Apple's Criminal, you'll remember how he used a lot of high tech and modern stuff, like the sports car and the video camera, etc. This film is Definitely going to my dvd-to-buy list. I just wish it would come out sooner. |

Nice to see Robin Williams has kicked the habit of doing those sentimental shitflicks. Hurray for him. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

I actually have trouble finding Robin Williams funny or sentimental, now... after Insomnia and OHPhoto, two fucking GREAT movies, I consider him a psycho now... The mother in OHPhoto (the chick from Gladiator) is so hot in that movie... I may start stalking her, too. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I liked it. Great cinematography. And yes, the mother was quite attractive. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i'm starting to be more selective about what dvd's i buy after i went crazy and got x-men, shrek, and some others that i probably don't love enough to own. if OHP had some really good extra features i'd probably get it. |
