Yeeeaaah, funny story. Our location didn't have any power on the day.

Like...none.

We were able to run a (single) cable from the hallway outside due to the kind graces of the restaurant next door. So this entire set was lit with one work light, 2 fluorescent desk lamps and 2 LED flashlights.

And it worked....for the most part. tongue

If we're divvying up effects, I'll gladly grab the hologram or popup display stuff if that still happened (I've been a little out the loop over the last week or so). I've got about 500 of them to do on my own project in the near future, the practice would be good big_smile

I should have gone with a Gungan chariot race.

Are the Gungan's strapped to the wheels? Are there spikes on these chariots? Laser spikes? Does the race take place in medium high thorny brush?

I have so many questions.

Richard Armitage is having a death scene. I'm sorry, but I've grown attached to him, as Thorin, and think that his performance will bring me to tears. Same thing with Fili and Kili. Sorry, I'm not as desensitized because I don't watch GOT wink

SPOILER Show
Well... not to drive this nail to hard on the head. But GoT ain't the reason I ain't gonna feel anything when those characters die. It's because when I was reading through your post I literally had to stop for about 5 seconds before I remembered which one was Thorin, and I'm still only maaaaybe 30% sure I know which ones are Fili and Kili.

And I'm probably an oddity in saying this, but I'm not one that goes "BRAH TOO MANY DWARVES BRAH", there's tons of ways it could've worked, but every time I watch either of the Hobbitses all of the Dwarves are either cardboard cutouts or whoopie cushion delivery vehicles. Hell compared to the LOTR trilogy the fact that there are ONLY 14 characters that I really need to care about (Plus a couple ancillary ones like Bard I guess) should be a relief.

I'm sure that in the moment those scenes will have some impact on me but only in regards to whatever internal to that scene trickery and acting ability is going on, not in any real sense of loss of the character.

DEWBACKS AND GUNGANS

No wait A PODRACE

A DEWBACK RACE!

To rival Ben-Hur!

You and I have very different ideas of how exciting a Dewback race would actually be.

Keep in mind this is what we're talking about here:

Now... this guy on the other hand:

That's a race I wanna see.

Maybe it just literally means the entire movie will be people standing around giving definitions to various words.

Zarban wins points as literally the only person to notice that.

Does it have some hidden meaning?

I...Not really actually... these things are just gonna be plastered on the walls and I thought some text there would look cool, but thought just Lorem Ipsuming it was too dull.

Good catch though tongue

Hey, weird, look at what happened in this thread. Yeesh.

Yeah. I wish someone could explain to me why this comes down to a bit of a fight...  hmm

Side A thinks side B is reading way too much into some jokes.

Side B thinks Side A is allowing the complete and utter destruction of everything good and noble.

Side C thinks both Side A and Side B should grow up.

Side D is just gonna go laugh at the jokes.


I've very recently joined side D.

You bring up a good point. Anybody want to play Niken's master Darth Voyne? Needs a hood and some makeup or mask against a dark background. Video quality is less important because it will be comped into the hologram.

Please disregard. Clear separation, good quality camera and lighting, please.


I would like to second the exasperated Australian.

I don't get your definitions of "film criticism" and "film reviewing". Virtually no one does analysis without recommendation or recommendation without analysis. Telling you whether a movie is worth watching or not is every film critic's job. Any other musing they do is a sideline.

I think that's an unfortunate reduction. Not all film critics are Gene Shalit, nor should they be. The job of a critic is to illuminate films to their readers, to explain what a film is and what it does and whether or not it does it well. That "sideline musing" is exactly how a good film critic tells you whether or not a film is good.

So...basically what FIYH does then?

Teague...do you guys consider yourself critics?

...sure.

For better or worse (trust us, it’s worse), his Tony Stark has devised a plan that won’t require him to put on the Iron Man suit anymore, and should allow Captain America, Thor, Black Widow, Hawkeye, and the Hulk to get some much needed R&R as well. His solution is Ultron, self-aware, self-teaching, artificial intelligence designed to help assess threats, and direct Stark’s Iron Legion of drones to battle evildoers instead.
