- Comment on Are trailers revealing too much again nowadays? 4 days ago:
The problem with those videos is that they’re designed for the YouTube advert system. Show the big moments to get them interested and then they sit and watch the ad/trailer rather than skip it.
It looks odd when you’re viewing it separately though.
- Comment on Are trailers revealing too much again nowadays? 4 days ago:
I did wonder about the trailer, was it the whole plot or just the start of the film. It’s a bit of a gamble.
- Comment on Are trailers revealing too much again nowadays? 4 days ago:
You’ve reminded me of The Force Awakens teaser trailer. Only a few shots of the main characters with no idea of the story at all.
This also carries on to the next 2½ minute trailer with no clues to the story really. I thought they were well done.
- Comment on Are trailers revealing too much again nowadays? 4 days ago:
Wow, that was cool.
Instead, we get this over and over again.
- Comment on Are trailers revealing too much again nowadays? 4 days ago:
I’m sure when I was a lad there were only two types of trailer, or at least the ones I remember. First there was a teaser trailer that would only last for about a minute and was quite coy in what to reveal. Although in fairness, that’s probably because there wasn’t enough footage ready to make a trailer, especially if it contained special effects elements.
The second trailer would later arrive, two minutes at most, containing special effects shots, and it would give you an idea of the film without revealing too much.
What have we got now? The entire film in three minutes to make sure everyone comes to see the film. I don’t, I feel like I’ve seen it and have no plans on watching it now. cough The Fall Guy cough

- Comment on Have y'all seen the theatrical re-release of The Phantom Menace? What was your experience? 1 week ago:
I haven’t seen this theatrical re-release but I saw it when it opened back in '99. There was no way it could live up to the hype of a brand new Star Wars film after about 16 years.
I bought the DVD and watched it a couple more times and then forgot about it. I bought the Blu-rays in late 2020, and watched the prequel trilogy again for the first time in over a decade.
I think Phantom Menace held up the best, possibly because the healthy amount of practical work. The CGI of the sequels hasn’t held up so well.
My review of the Episode one from 2020.

- Comment on Brace yourselves. According to Bill Hunt, the 4K for "ONCE UPON A TIME IN THE WEST" is going to be divisive. 1 week ago:
The review was very interesting because it sounds like they fucked up by saving money. The whole film has been compressed onto a 66gb disc. In comparison, if you have access to that kaleidoscope service where you can stream the original 4K files, it is a 87gb download. So paramount have compressed the film buy about a third, causing the film to look worse than it should.

- Comment on Vin Diesel’s New ‘Riddick’ Movie Moving Forward for Fall Shoot 1 week ago:
I was just saying to someone that I think Riddick is one of those characters who are better the less you know about them, like the original film.
Of course all the sequels try to answer those questions.
On the other hand, the Xbox game, Escape From Butcher Bay, was one the better film tie-ins I’ve played.
