Rewatching Snowpiercer, and I caught how
Gilliam was reticent about the idea of trying to get to the engine and kill Wilford. And pointedly asks what Curtis will do then [to make things any better than they are now].
Also amusing was how Edgar
thought he had memories of things like steak, and I'm looking side-eyed at him having memories of his mother.
After that incredible story near the end, I have a hard time buying the actor as
17-18/18-19 years old. I suppose I can handwave it as a hard existence making people appear older than they are. But sheesh, the actor is almost 30 now.
Yeah, Julie, that story
confused me because I thought Curtis and Edgar were the same age.
Julie and PC, I had the same reaction.
Okay, I have a horrible memory lane movie question:
70's/80's flick. Missionaries. Non-white country. Lady missionary gets raped (offscreen) and then has her face blown off.
Yes, this imagery has been popping up in my head of late, I can't begin to understand why, but I feel if I identify it, I can move on from it. It's awful.
Also, why was I able to watch this when I was probably five years old? Even if I was ten, wtf?
Cable? I saw tThe Mosquito Coast when I was too young just flipping channels.
Any word on whether to go 3D (or even IMAX 3D) for Guardians of the Galaxy? I'm thinking Saturday matinee.
It sounds like IMAX 3D might be cool for this one because it changes aspect ratios like
The Dark Knight,
even though it wasn't filmed with IMAX cameras. Seems like the new thing is to film with 3D conversion in mind rather than specifically film in 3D.
To 3D or Not to 3D says definitely do 3D. Alas, I'm seeing it in 2D.
Thanks! I'll probably end up making a spur of the moment decision based on when I can get to the theater and how sold out they may be, but IMAX 3D does seem like a potentially awesome option.
Interesting little detail I picked up on rewatching Gravity: During the
dream sequence, where Clooney returns to the capsule, she never stops taking in big gulps of air while she's talking to Imaginary!Clooney. Clooney's breathing is fine, but hers is gasping and open-mouthed throughout. Because the 02 is still off, of course.
Just found that to be a nice little tidbit.
I saw Guardians in 2D and it was super fun.
There were a couple of draggy moments but, overall, a winner.
A bunch of laugh out loud bits and the cgi for Rocket is a.maz.ing.
I could not tell who
Nathan
played and cannot find an image, so will have to rewatch now that I know the character name.
I need to get a copy of the Marvel encyclopedia to figure out who all these characters are. So much to learn!
