I think even Moffat isn't really sure what the hell happens in series 6.
EDIT: hee-hee
Then we're on the same page, because Deus Ex's soundtrack was made by the exact same guys who made Unreal Tournament's soundtrack (Alexander Brandon, Dan Gardopée, Michiel van den Bos).
Sorry to hear that, mate.
Dude, seriously. I'm tired of having to tell you that you're awesome.
Gravity's my favorite one. It has such a great atmosphere. And I always love this kind of smooth reversed sounds. As I said on Twitter, it reminds me a bit of some tracks from Black Mesa's soundtrack (remake of the original Half-Life game). And while Engage has some Daft Punk tones to it, the synth bass with the drums take me back to Unreal Tournament and its amazing soundtrack. Yes, I relate much to video games.
I'd love to know a bit more about how you made all that (gear, software), too.
I doubt JPEG is much used in this situation. TGA would be the standard. Right?
...he does look like Bill Gates now.
The note at the top can give sense to this list, but the explanations on the right make it total bullshit.
I went to Switzerland last year, but to the Valais. People speak mostly french around Geneva, right? They're probably better at speaking english than we are, though.
Wait, does that mean I'm not the only guy who speaks french in here anymore?
Oh well. Welcome to this crazy place.
There was a picture of you in one of my classes once too, from Starship Troopers. I went all crazy and stuff.
I love this movie. I've never watched it sober.
That scene reminds me of another one from a movie Down in Front has already covered, Children of Men. I think it deserves to be in this thread anyway.
I love this movie so much. The filmmaking is brilliant, and the following scene is what I consider one of the greatest uses of VFX. The film uses very long takes throughout multiple locations and actions, usually shot in different takes combined into one.
The car scene is brilliant. Shot with the camera inside the car, it puts us with the characters in the action itself. Being one seamless shot adds to the tension and that plus the absence of music makes us feel we're witnessing something real.
Warning: contains spoilers.

I believe this is the best example, but the film does it quite often, the opening itself using this technique to combine multiple takes and allowing more possibilities (i.e. the explosion).
I recently got the Blu-Ray, it features making-of bonuses I haven't checked out yet but definitely will.
Wow. I had no memory of this. That's badass. It looks like they used the cars passing in front of the camera to switch between shots of the car on the actual road and the actors in front of a green matte. It's seamless, though.
Relevant enough to me. Damn, that guy's awesome.
They could kill McClane at some point. Would that be the end of the franchise? Of course not! Why do you think they introduced us to John's son and daughter?
-> Die Hard with a Legacy
Oh God.
I read that in the comments for the RLM video:
Die Hard: Save the building
Die Harder: Save the airport and the planes
Die Hard with a Vengeance: Save the city
Live Free or Die Hard: Save the country
A Good Day to Die Hard: Save the world
Die Hard 6 (The Day the Earth Died Hard):Aliens invade. Save the universe.
No, except if his computer goes all wibbly-wobbly.
I won't take that away from Die Hard 4: most of the action looks amazing. The fights feel violent and real, and some stunts are incredible.
I agree with you about McClane: being cocky and basically unimpressed with whatever can happen to him feels natural after all the shit he's been through. But I really don't see why they had to go there and make him throw a goddamn car at a helicopter. Or, you know, the whole plane sequence.
Also, Timothy Olyphant is okay; but he's no Alan Rickman or Jeremy Irons (and William Sadler was pretty cool too).
When I watched Die Hard 4, I thought that McClane becoming this old grumpy guy was sort of logical, as they don't try to hide the fact that Willis has aged - McClane has too. And at the beginning, I still related a bit to him. "Okay, so McClane has grown older, he has a daughter now, and screwed up his relationship with her. No surprise here, it's McClane."
But the rest is so over the top it fucks the whole thing up. Now, with what I can hear about Die Hard 5... the only thing that comes to my mind is "screw that. It isn't canon to me anymore. McClane's story ended with Die Hard 3."
If this is gonna be a thing (by which I mean, if it exhibits Useful Consequences and somehow grows our audience by way of accessibility or some other unintended thing) I demand proper chairs for everyone, because now we have to look like people.
In the meantime, yeah, we'll figure something out. Or we'll make the cameras more... flatteringly oriented.
You're not a TV show. If you're going to have to care about looking good and stuff, I say it's not worth it. I like being here when you record only so I can look at you beautiful people being who you are - friends chillin' on a couch, talking about movies.
(also, saying crap in the chat, but that's another story)
