Just walked out halfway through Angels & Demons (Cinema Talk Post)

blankfist says...

You walked out, dag?! But you missed the best part at the end when (SPOILER ALERT) Ewan McGregor parachutes back to earth unconscious and violently takes out a group of pedestrians with his limp appendages. I kid you not, that is in the movie, and it is hilariously out of place. The movie wasn't terrible, but then again I didn't go in with high expectations.

@KP, that probably had more to do with the volume set by the projectionist. Although, when a movie is perceived as "loud" it could just be that the mix has proper highs and lows without it being compressed -- don't think compression with a codec, but compressing the high and low ranges into middle ranges so explosions and dialogue can coexist in the same shot without the explosion overtaking the dialogue like it would in reality.

The Incredible Hulk sound mix also has a wide spread between lows and highs, which I'm a fan of. But, yeah, Terminator was a huge let down. So was Wolverine. Being an avid comic reader of Wolvie back in the day, I think they missed a number of opportunities with revealing his bone claws, but whatever...

So far, Star Trek is the big summer movie to see. Sad.

QI - Alan Rickman, Kevin Costner and Brit Villains on Film

EDD says...

Here we go again, the never-ending whiners' argument. UK actors always cast as villains by Hollywood? Puhh-leaz.

Forgot your own cinema legend Laurence Olivier, did you? Oh, we're in the 21st century now? What about Jack Bauer? Huh? Forgot Hugh Laurie, America's No.1 male sex-symbol, too? Christian fucking Bale? Gerard Butler? James McAvoy? Starting to remember some, are you now? Jude Law. Idris Elba. Sir Ian McKellen. Patrick Stewart. Ralph Fiennes. Michael Caine. Clive Owen. Ewan McGregor. I bet I could name thrice as much if I started googling.

If you want to whine about Brits occasionally being cast as baddies, first acknowledge that Arabs, Russians, and Chinese have long had it way worse. Wankers.

Star Wars Dance Off

This video makes me think the three prequels should have been musicals. We know Ewan McGregor has the chops for it. Let's call a re-do on episodes 1-3 and let Baz Luhrmann direct

Ewan McGregor tells of a huge firecracker up Craig Ferguson

Return of the Jedi ending - rare rough version

dbalsdon says...

" The thing i'm truly pissed off about is how they changed Anakin in the remastered version to Hayden Christienson."

Yeah. I agree with you. A really pointless edit. Why not just go all out, and get Ewan McGregor to appear instead of Alec Guinness.

The war to end all wars. Footage from World War One

Enzoblue says...

If this interests you at all, read Atonement by Ewan McKewan. he gives a wrenching account of Brittish soldiers traveling along with French Refugees during the retreat. It'll give you an almost too enlighted perspective.

Trainspotting - Trailer

gwaan says...

Truly great film!

The original theatrical trailer is perhaps better - it contains no footage from the movie but instead has Renton (Ewan McGregor) tied to the train tracks by his friends as a train rapidly approaches!
