Owning a house is both amazingly satisfying and continually frustrating. Even with a new house, you never know when something expensive is going to go wrong. In 15 years, I've replaced the front of mine (the stone was put on wrong and allowed water to get behind it), the A/C unit, the furnace burner, the water heater, and the washer & dryer, and the dog. And none of those were low-quality items to begin with. Except for the dog.

Bartender, hugs all around.

I'm not a soundtrack guy, but this was really cool. I especially liked track 3. More melody, I suppose. And I dig that artwork.

I'm happy with everything I've seen. I don't know why this isn't tripping along. I was hoping for more refined edits and some hologram effects and whatnot.

Yeah, the whole idea here was to use whatever was easy to do and still looked cool. That flat hologram I referenced on the initial post is perfectly fine. It's actually necessary for the way we shot the later moments with Straya manipulating things on screen to track Darth Voyne's location.

Yeah, some technical person will have to answer that. Performancewise, I think it's great.

That's fantastic! Your voice is terrific! And there's literally no way you could go too evil considering Ian McDiarmid's performances.

Okay, I guess I'll try to do it this weekend.

Is there a new rough cut with my other suggestions?

I agree with most of what's been said here. Inauspicious beginning for Twelve. But the nature of the regeneration conceit allows for some adjustment time.

I was going to do the voice of Straya's master, but yeah, alright. I can do that instead. I should be able to do it this weekend.

EDIT: Unless somebody else WANTS to do it.

Yeah, rings no bells for me either, but it sounds like something that might have been used in a comic book, an area i have no recent knowledge about.

I don't know. The lines on the prosthetic chin are really obvious in that second clip at around 6 seconds. Maybe Rodriguez was never happy with it and decided to go with something different, and that turned out just as bad and more exaggerated.

But I agree with Michael. Rodriguez never grew into the film maker he showed promise of. He probably thinks he's just cashing in on a grindhouse trend until he busts out a blockbuster, but I think he may find himself stuck in the grindhouse permanently.

I maintain that eagles would have been stopped by the Nazgul on fell beasts before getting within miles of Mt Doom.
