Re: Twenty Twelve.

We'll make sure to correct that on the anniversary show.

Re: Twenty Twelve.

From what I can tell, ILM didn't even work on 2012 at all. Which is weird. Maybe Emmerich thinks they're too expensive.

Re: Twenty Twelve.

I find it interesting they had to add a FAQ page about the world not ending in 2012. I guess "It's not cool to burn witches. Here's why." is coming soon.

Re: Twenty Twelve.

All I can really say about this movie is that I salute the VFX artists who created everything, but you really couldn't pay me to watch this movie a second time. I've actually only seen half of it, and I've heard the DIF for it. (which was great, as always)

Also, I'm a Cusack fan, and I couldn't have cared less about his character in this.

So, yeah. Didn't like the movie. VFX were badass.

Wait, can they be world famous when I've never heard of them?

Re: Twenty Twelve.

Looking back, I'm willing to admit that I may have gone full Finifter on this one. I just hate it SO MUCH. I think it's the fact that Jake loved it that set me off, which I acknowledge is totally irrational and completely subject to taste but, you know, agh.

Still, next time I'll try to be cool like Fonzie and actually stick to an analysis rather than getting lost in the rage-fog, since it's probably not all that fun to listen to in retrospect.

Re: Twenty Twelve.

There just wasn't too much common ground between "it's stupid and great" and "it's stupid and bad". When someone doesn't see the "stupid" part as being a problem, there's no where to go from there

Re: Twenty Twelve.

I just want everyone on the panel to be having fun, whatever their opinion of the movie is. So I always feel bad when someone hates a movie so much it makes them angry. Teague did a good job trying steer the discussion into sunnier climes.

Re: Twenty Twelve.

Although even Teague fell back to going "Movie we like had X, this movie also has X, so why do you not like it now?" For me at least that's making things a bit too simplistic, as usually how a movie does something is more important to the viewer then what is being done. Unless it's the first time, in which case we often just go "Wow, they did that!" and leave quality judgements for later films.

Re: Twenty Twelve.

That's the point of the question. Something works, something similar doesn't, why not?

Like many things I'm usually the one to ask, it isn't designed to be "answered" simply, it's designed to start the brainstorming out loud.
