Europa Report TRAILER (2013)

It seems to me that these type of scifi flicks often contain an element of horror, too.
I am not a big fan of this.
I understand that any good story must have conflict. But not all conflict has to be "the big bad scary monster". Sometimes it can be internal. Sometimes it can simply be the fear of the unknown.
I want to see a good, solid space movie that encompasses wonder and the element of fear without using it as an excuse to use to dip in to the horror genre.
Maybe I'll just watch 2001: A Space Odyssey again.

Pacific Rim - Official Wondercon Trailer #2

I do sometimes wonder if all the eye rolling I do during some sci-fi films might end up damaging my vision. That being said, if it were ever written into law that all sci-fi and fantasy scripts had to be approved by a committee scientists I fear that the genre would die out almost over night. Every space film would end up looking like 2001: A Space Odyssey, no Star Wars, no epic space battles with the sound and fury we come to associate with war. No more Babylon 5 and watching star ships carve each other up like thanksgiving turkeys. Nope, it's all totally correct now, it's also boring as hell.
Look on the bright side, whenever a movie like this comes along it gives you another chance to show everyone just how much smarter you are than all the mouth breathers out there.

Yeah, I notice that a lot in film. If something the size of a skyscraper picked up a ship like a bat, it would crumple and fold under its own weight as soon as it was off the ground. I don't blame the FX guys, I blame the writers. They script that stuff in there without any real understanding of the physics, just figuring it will look cool.
No surprise there, hollywood and their mouth-breathing target-audience and all, so I'll swallow my disbelief and disappointment and hope it's at least a decent Evangelion americanization.

Elysium Trailer HD

Basically Matt Damon gets sick of living in District 9, so he borrows the Mickey Rourke suit from Iron Man 2, to take on Daft Punk who are defending the toffs from Hunger Games, who all live on the roundy space station from 2001: A Space Odyssey.

I wonder what the battery life is like? I saw one demonstrated over at the Mall of America that could go for about 15 minuets. On a side note, it sounds like a beehive doing it's rendition of the theme music for the black obelisk in 2001 A Space Odyssey.

I don't know if this should be considered "FX" if it was done manually...
That would be impressive if this was automatic process.

Yes it's not so much cg as retouching like you would a photograph. What impresses me is that it is in real time. I'd imagine using a rather complex algorithm.
That's the thing, we don't know if this is in real time.


Ya, like all those movies before CGI that had no "FX" in them. Like Star Wars 4, Star Trek 1, and 2001 a Space Odyssey. Fuckin done-by-hand amatuers.

They looked like problems to me as well, I've fixed 'em all up now. Cheers

Ah, crud, I hope this isn't what's happening to me on all the ZP videos I'm dead-ing. I saw this comment by ForgedReality on the Enslaved review.

Embed no worky for me.
edit - Oh crap. I reload about half a dozen times, and it won't show up for me. I give it 30 minutes and come back again and now it's fine. >:[ So yeah, nevermind.
Have they all looked dead to you, too?


Edit: On the "plus" side, it looks like all of the ones posted in the last year and two months are working fine, so I suspect that it's a real problem with the old embeds.
Edit edit: Man, you're fast at fixing those! I'm done with the ZP playlist. Everything else looks like it works! (And everything should have a time on it now, too.)
