OMFG!!11!!!! Just finished this weeks Game Of Thrones. :eek:

I did NOT see that coming. Anyone else seen it yet? Really glad i haven't read the books now as that was incredible. Shocking, but incredible. I'm stunned! Still one more episode remaining too. Can't wait to see it, but i'll be so sad once the Season is over. Another long wait for it to return again.

Lol, that's the one. :D

Just watched Dragon Lore Curse of the Shadow.

Interesting film (It's a pilot film for a potential fantasy series.). It's based on the world from the old (1994) Dragon Lore videogame.

The SFX was pretty realistic (as far as dragons and magic can be), there's some serious costume design and make-up artists and even the fight scenes didn't feel cheap. I was impressed :) The story was very videogame-ish, so nothing overly complicated. But the dialogue was fresh and flowed. And for unknown (well, I've never seen them before) actors, they did a bloody good job. It never felt like cosplay in the way most fantasy films without a million dollar budget do.

What I loved the most, however, is that they didn't do what ever other bloody tv show/film does: Explain everything. They all assume the audience is composed of utter morons who don't even know what Elves are. This one didn't, they never explained anything, just left us to either play the game or figure it out along the way. I love it when films or tv shows treat you like you don't need to have every detailed explained at every possible turn. (Frankly, if you don't know what a High Elf is, what the hell are you doing watching a serious Fantasy film?)

You'd think that with the success of LOTR, The Hobbit, Merlin and GoT, there'd be more serious (as in 'well made', though for Game of Porn that is debatable.) Fantasy series and films out there. It's ridiculous how little there is.

But then, SciFi has the same thing, the only SciFi show still running is Doctor Who. There is seriously nothing else. (Defiance is SyFy. Says it all.)

The new Star Trek is supposed to be okay, but yeah, the Sci-Fi so far this year has been disappointing. Pacific Rim looks too much like a Transformers movie to me, so even with GDT directing i won't be bothering with it. Perhaps Elysium will save the day.

Here's some movie trivia i heard today. From IMDb:

"'Alan Smithee' is a common pseudonym for directors whose film was clearly taken away from her/him and recut heavily against her/his wishes in ways that completely altered the film..."

So if you see Alan Smithee given as a credit in future, you know the movie has been butchered and the original Director has washed his hands of it.

Ive just seen it and I as a Superman fan and film fan in general am kind of dissapointed in this :cool:

There are some things that great but there were far too many moments that just felt rushed and forced and jarring.

My rating right now is between 6 to 7 out of 10.

It for now to me certainly doesn't match BB. I will watch it again to see if the hype and trailers really drove my expectations too high. :cool:

But I would recommend watching it in the big screen at least once in 2d.

Certainly better then IM3 and Star Trek into darkness.

I think the best film ive seen this year was Oblivion.

A couple i've seen recently:

Contagion 8/10. Better than any other movie of it's type. Gritty, believable and realistic.

Senna - 8/10. Better than i expected!

Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy - 6/10. I really wanted to like this, having been a fan of the book, but it did nothing for me at all. It's atmospheric but just lacks the tension you'd expect from a film of this kind.

I have heard that the original version of that film is pretty damn good. I'm an advocate of watching them both. I watched and loved Vanilla Sky and then saw the Spanish original, Open Your Eyes, and they were almost frame-for-frame exactly the same, but they just had a little something different. That was such a good film that it would be hard to do it badly, so not the best example, but they were both worth watching.

Man of Steel Logic-

1) If an alien is destroying your city ... wait for the destruction to reach the building right in front of you before evacuating

2) run towards the alien ship till the building in front of you starts falling ... and then change directions.

3) if it takes the good guy years to get used to the Earths sun and atmosphere and gain powers, it will take the bad guy a couple of hours to overcome the same.

4) if while fighting the bad guys, you do millions in damage and kill god knows how many people ... don't gain a conscience until you kill the bad guy with your own hands

5) half the city destroyed, millions dead ... just killed the bad guy ... plan of action- lets smooch :p :D

Buddy I would at least use hide tags for spoilers. Not nice for people who haven't seen mos yet :cool:

See my response.

SPOILERS!

1 to 2 - I agree and go with that :D;). Lol

3. Umm this one I dont agree with. Kal was still the strongest of all of them. Plus remember not all the krytonians had unlocked thier abilities. Since zod was exposed first to the yellow sun for longer he had more chance of unlocking his power. Plus he is a general and has had years of training in tactics and battle which helped him to adapt to the powers easier due to experience alone then Kal as he is a Warrior by nature.

4. Um well this is supposed to be a more realistic depiction of what would happen in terms of collateral damage if these sorts of super powered beings battled it out in a city. Plus there was nothing Kal could have done when the planet terraforming machine killed thousands (I mean look at the deaths caused in independence day) he doesn't have Chris Reeves ability to turn back time :rolleyes: to save lives. If he did om sure he would have. :D:p

Plus the reason he had regret in killing Zod was he killed the last of his people, he is now in effect the last of his race. Doesn't mean he doesn't feel for the the thousands that died already. Due to the nature of the film there was no time to show how he really felt about all the deaths.

But the film already established he wants to save people and of course he cares it just isnt spelt out obviously in the end.

5. Lol. Yes I will give you this one. A bit inappropriate. But this was before he killed the bad guy. :D:p;)
[Off-topic] parag1dubey:
I agree with jeetu on most points.. I would have liked it if the non stop action in the second half was less like Michael Bay films. A bit of light hearted humour wouldn't have heart.. After all, this is superman not V is for Vendetta.. The disjointed nature of the screenplay also detracts.. Clearly, they were trying to emulate batman begins (childhood flashbacks) but while Nolan is astute enough to pull that off, snyder ain't. I hope the next instalment is better.. I would say better than iron man 3 but not as good as star trek 2. There simply wasn't any emotional investment in the film for me...

Furthermore, the amount of damage superman causes is staggering.. Imagine the number of kids, babies and women (hot ones too ;)) killed in the hundreds of collapsing buildings.. Chris reeves would have carried zod outside the city limits and then fought him. :)

I know I am in the minority who actually liked superman returns. I liked Brandon Routh as superman because he displayed charm and clumsiness (as clark) really well. In My humble opinion, superman returns was a better film because of good storytelling rather than mindless, wanton destruction..
[Off-topic] parag1dubey:
Hmm, I agree with some of what you said.. But even if they are showing realism, there could have been humour... There is humour in the batman films too. The shirt rip scene not being there was criminal in my opinion :cool:

I liked superman returns because it kept the mythos of superman intact. Yes, there was an obvious donner influence but some parts were really good.. Routh wasn't a great superman but the script was written so that he didn't need to be. Snyder's direction:) was pretty Ham fisted in places...

I agree about hans zimmer's score and also about it being criminally underused :rolleyes:

Cavill is a good superman.. Hope he is much better in the next film..

In regards to MOS

My take much better than Superman returns circa 2006 that movie sucked ass Cavill played the part well. I grew up with Christopher Reeves and loved him as superman. The only issue I had with the 80's movies was that they became a bit campy after the original. I think negatives being expressed about MOS is because expectations were set so high after the 2006 disaster

In my honest opinion, that's one of the best films ever made.

I recently watched The Man From The Future (thanks [MENTION=393059]Dirk Gently[/MENTION] - I think) and it was awesome, but I'm a massive sucker for time travel films. Even that stupid one about the hot tub. One of my earliest time travel films was probably Somewhere in Time with the wonderful Christopher Reeve and the lovely Jane Seymour. A more recently seen one was Frequently Asked Questions About Time Travel which I would highly recommend.

I find both good in thier own ways.

I grew up with the lester version so the one I viewed plenty of times.

This was before I got interested in behind the scenes stuff on how films are made and finding out actually Donner filmed like over 50% of it in the making of documentaries on Dvd. :eek:

They actually filmed both versions back to back until the focus was to complete the first one and took the ending of the 2nd film and placed Superman turning back time :rolleyes:in the first film.

He then got wrongfully fired so never got the chance to finnish off number 2 properly.

This is the problem with the donner version for me. Its a incomplete film with scenes cut and pasted from test footage and stuff so can feel jarring at times plus a lot of footage not filmed. Dont get me wrong its worth watching and a good film but it can never looked at as a complete film.

There are some great scenes especially all the Jor El Marlon Brando stuff which they didn't use in the lester version because the producers were too cheap to pay Brando again :rolleyes:.

So how I would watch it is watch the Lester version first and then the Donner version.

But if you are to watch one version only then watch the Donner version.

But I hope they can make a version which combines the lester and Donner version to make a more complete Ultimate version. :);)

Well i am not a superman fan.

BUT i would say the entire story and the build-up of MOS completely fails, and was comical at best.

Which reminds me that there also, aren't the smallest bit of humor in the entire movie. The old and previous Superman films had a great sense of humor, both in the Superman role and villains like Lex Luthor. This movie is devout of any laughs, other than the unintentional.

The story, taken out of the film, could be a great alternative story to the usual Superman films, but it is horribly executed. Might be the director, might be the editing or the story structure.
