It feels like marketing departments are treating us like idiots. They show the best bits so we can run along and see how they connect with the rest of the film we haven’t seen, probably the talkie bits as they’ve already shown all the action.

Yeah. The opening minute had me hooked. Once they started showing that he was going on a mission, I turned off. Stop giving me an abridged version of the film!
- Comment on Is it just me or have teasers turned into full trailers? How come this is happening ? For example The Last Showgirl released a teaser and its a minute 50 the Thunderbolts first released one and it 3mi 2 days ago:
I agree. Back in the day, they made great teasers with footage that was especially shot for that purpose. I wrote a blog post about that kind of thing back in 2015.
These days I find myself turning off any kind of trailer after the first minute as they seem hell bent on laying out the entire film for you.
- Comment on Bond Producers On Next 007 Qualities - Dark Horizons 3 days ago:
The Jinx film almost happened. There was a script, a director in Stephen Frears but apparently MGM got cold feet spending $80m on the film.
Berry said,
“It was very disappointing. It was ahead of its time. Nobody was ready to sink that kind of money into a Black female action star. They just weren’t sure of its value. That’s where we were then.”

- Comment on ‘Gladiator 2’ Reviews Are In, And Better Than ‘Gladiator’ 4 days ago:
It’s when articles say it’s “only” got 77% in reviews and act like that’s a terrible thing. Surely 50% would be a truly average film.

I’m surprised he managed to get hold of so many video game licences. All the films were awful.

- Comment on Dogma at 25: How a controversial Catholic comedy became practically impossible to see 5 days ago:
I bought Brian O’Halloran’s (Dante from Clerks trilogy) film called Vulgar as one of the extras on the DVD is the documentary “Judge Not … In the Defense of Dogma”. That was really interesting and it’s easily found on YouTube.
There’s also this bit of footage about Dogma which I think is quite funny as well! 😁

- Comment on How Fans Saved Star Wars - Laserdisc Bootlegs (Part I) 6 days ago:
Lucas is known to be pack rat, he keeps everything. Did you know there’s a version of Star Wars that doesn’t use bluescreen for the travelling shots.
They tried using rear protection, think 70s TV shows when two people were travelling in a car and chatting, for Luke talking while driving his land speeder and possibly the shots in the falcon cockpit.
He’s got all this stuff and more. Every time there’s a new Star Wars documentary from Lucasfilm, it’s amazing seeing new behind the scenes footage even after all this time.
There’s deleted scenes from Indiana Jones films that have never seen the light of day for example.
- Comment on How Fans Saved Star Wars - Laserdisc Bootlegs (Part I) 6 days ago:
There’s a very dedicated team of fans who have bought, or been lent, cinema reels of the original Star Wars trilogy.
It’s taken them years to scan it in, frame by frame and to correct the colour and repair the picture.
They’re considered the gold standard. Search for 4K77, 4K80 and 4K83.
I remember interviews with Lucas and I think Rick MacCallum that said the original Star Wars negative was used to create the Special Editions.
The Library of Congress definitely has a print of Star Wars that was submitted in 1978. I think they also have Empire and Jedi but I’m not sure if they are the original editions.

I have discovered today that someone bootlegged the trailer as shown back at a D23 event in August but Disney have been busy taking down any copy I can find.

- Comment on Lionsgate CEO on Borderlands bombing at the box-office: "Everything that could go wrong did go wrong" 1 week ago:
There was a director a while back, Uwe Boll, who managed to get the rights to several video games and made bad films out of all of them.
One of them was Far Cry, being that old, it’s based on the first game.
