Interference Random Movie Talk Episode IX: Fievel Goes Down

[Lancemc]

Lance - how is the Akira BD?

Pretty spectacular. I don't own it, but I've seen a few scenes from it. Probably as good as that film is ever going to look, I'd wager. I think the Blu-ray.com review complained about the black border around the frame of the picture, but it's honestly not that big a deal.

Also, Paprika looks absolutely stunning. Def picking this one up in my next haul too. As I've only seen this through netflix streaming of all things.

This really demands a sad face at the end of it, Lance.

 

[Lancemc]

You all know it's there in reality. I didn't want to be redundant.

I really hope that doesn't suck

I could probably survive Avatar being a failure. That one... not so much.

Glad to see this, since you're gonna have to.

Bad movie.

Also, WTF YOU SAW OBSESSED?

At a friend's house.

It wasn't even good enough to riff on, until the catfight at the end where the chick from Heroes is thrown from an attic. Defend THAT, Kanye.

 

[Lancemc]

I'm trying to figure out if this is really talented artwork or just tricksy/weird photoshop work.

In either case, I hope people check this out in theaters this year, despite being a reduced edit of the two Chinese films. John Woo FTW, just the same.

 

[GirlsAloudFan]

Avatar won't be a failure. And I'll do my list again, recently updated, since all the cool kids are doing it.

1. Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince
2. Inglourious Basterds
3. Adventureland
4. Post-Grad
5. Up
6. It Might Get Loud
7. I Love You, Man
8. Star Trek

Speaking of which...

I think it's about time I reveal to her the identity of my full-blood prince.

Is that what they're doing? Fuck it, may as well just buy both DVDs on import and see it the way it's supposed to be experienced.

My old chum wouldn't mind coming to her cabaret, if you get my meaning.

We got this in June. Pretty damn good, the condensing wasn't as jarring as I thought it would be, although there are a fair few "What the Hell did HE come from?" moments due to sub plots getting axed.

I was originally going to do was Laz said and just watch the DVDs, but even with some dodgy CGI this is a film to be seen at the cinema.

I wouldn't mind exploring her Chamber of Secrets.

 

[impy13]

I'd dementor.

That's good to hear. I'm glad I watched both full length films back when they were released on Region 3 DVD to get the full experience. But I think it will be a pleasure seeing most of it again on the big screen.

 

[monkeyskin]

I'd let her suck more than just my soul.

I hope she comes looking for my Philospher's stones.

I'd take her out to BOOM Chicago.

 

[Lancemc]

I'm siriusly ablack to azkaban her if she'll free my prisoner for me.

 

[impy13]

I'd let her flitwick my slughorn.

 

[lazarus]

I'd take her out to BOOM Chicago.

Nice. How many people are even going to get that one?

THE LISTS: Top 10 Steven Soderbergh films

I'm not OK with this.

 

[u2popmofo]

As an FYI to Blu-Ray fannies, picture-wise, Sin City looks amazing in Blu-Ray. Only put it in for a min to check out the picture quality of a number of the movies I recently purchased, but it was easily the stand out.

I stuck in Blade Runner and thought the opening scene looked pretty crappy quality wise, but then I skipped to Harry Fordy eating at that food stand, and that looked amazing. Are some of the scenes considerably better than others, or were my eyes just being overly critical?

And so as to not be left out.......I'd like to Sin in Her-Heiny's City, if you catch my drift.

 

[No spoken words]

Well, I'd say the latter but maybe things that looked amazing to me look crappy to you.

 

[No spoken words]

I'd like her to be a bit older before I Sherlock her Holmes.

 

[Lancemc]

You're also looking at an opening scene with a ton of miniature effects work and the like that wasn't exactly done with the biggest of production budgets and has undergone a number of remasterings and such over the years, versus a fully realized, shot and lit set scene.

In other news, I went from drinking a good 40 oz. of coffee a day this summer, to the last 4 weeks of not drinking any at all, to drinking three cups of my own brew today for the first time in that period.

And now I feel like my heart is going to explode.
