2007-05-01 Thread B. Smith
I liked Night Watch but like a lot of Russian cinema it's pacing is 
way too leisurely. Supposedly the American cut actually improved the 
flow of the movie. 

I love the little twist at the end. That brought the movie full 
circle. I can't wait for Day Watch.

Are you talking about the Russian flick with the following plot: Among

They are divided up into the forces of light and the forces of the dark, 
who signed a truce several centuries ago to end a devastating battle. 
Ever since, the forces of light govern the day while the night belongs 
to their dark opponents. In modern day Moscow the dark Others actually

Are you talking about the Russian flick with the following plot: Among 
normal humans live the Others possessing various supernatural powers. 
They are divided up into the forces of light and the forces of the dark, 
who signed a truce several centuries ago to end a devastating battle. 
Ever since, the forces of light govern the day while the night belongs 
to their dark opponents. In modern day Moscow the dark Others actually 
roam the night as vampires while a Night Watch of light forces, among 
them Anton, the movie's protagonist, try to control them and limit their 
outrage.

You got me. I never saw either of the Resident Evil flicks. The trailers 
didn't entrhall me, and word-of- mouth and reviews were so bad I skipped 'em. I 
assumed that the directing would follow the latest trend of too-fast camera 
work, where the scenes shift every three seconds like a crazed music video. I 
see more and more directors using that method to convey action, it really, 
really irritates me. Think of the horrible camera work in the action scenes in

Agreed. I think I've stated this before too, but I remember when MTV premiered 
Short Attention Span Theater. I remembered thinking it was a strange title, 
not realizing how accurately prescient it was. The weird thing is, I've noticed 
that more and more people I talk to about this look at me like I'm an 
alien--especially young (under 30) folks.  I try to talk about movies like 
Lawrence of Arabia, with its long shot, old black-and-white films where the 
camera pans out to show two people talking, instead of back-and-forth. Even 
action flicks like Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon are an example, where Ang 
Lee uses wide shots to encompass all the action.  I try to make them understand 
how using the camera to force feed action is amateurish and on the level of 
music videos. But alas, they don't get it. But then, these are the same people 
who tell me that Bad Boys 2 was a good movie...

As for the crazy-on-crack camera shots, I think that's ADHD/ADD at work in

that those two conditions didn't exist before the MTV Generation.

  might be able to get it.
  
 
 I didn't say that I hated the anime.   Just that I wasn't happy 
with some of 
 it.   And yeah I wish they would have had armor in the movie 
also.   And not 
 the armored body suits that they had in the cgi version-which 
inspite of it was 
 still good.
 
 But as for actually getting a copy of it? I know it's a hard find, 
but I'm 
 still looking.   I'm hoping that someone would put up a torrent for 
it but 
 that's also a longshot.

no doubt, so bad it makes you laugh. It was even the focus of a memorable 
Seinfeld ep. Jerry's trying to get his friends to see it with him. He keeps 
saying the worst movie ever made, so terrible it's funny.  They're going, but 
they need to eat first, and there's a problem getting seated at a Chinese 
restaurant. Hilarious ep.

2007-04-25 Thread votomguy
actually i liked the anime, athough if the cgi show would have had 
power armor like the anime it would probably have been the closest to 
the book. you're right it is next to impossible to find. i've never 
seen it on ebay, but it was floating around on yahoo auctions. i 
check in periodically to see if it pops up. there was a comicbook 
store selling the whole series in the raw japanese unsubtitled for 
like 20 bucks. unfortunately, i lost the url of the site. with the 
effective death of vhs tapes i don't have the first clue of where you 
might be able to get it.

**shudder** i
   dunno why but i felt i had too. lol i've seen almost everything
   starship troopers that there is. the only thing i haven't seen 
is vol 3
   of the 1989 anime. that was probably the truest to the book of
   anything. althought roughneck chronicles wasn't too bad.
  
 
 As for the animated Starship Troopers series getting it right.   
Um. Yes and 
 no.   The suits and training they got almost right (of course 
they'll get the 
 suits right).   The storyline started true-to-form but deviated 
from the book 
 around the series middle.   And the main character they f'ed up on 
being that 
 Jonny himself was a blond, blue eyed caucasion (not philipeno-which 
the 
 roughnecks series got right on).   But carmin was nearly spot on 
perfect.
 
 Eitherway dispite it's pluses they got enough wrong on the project 
that the 
 Heinlin people didn' like it overall from what I heard.   Still it 
was alot 
 better than the movies.
 
 And I'm still trying to get that f**%ng series (finding a needie 
in a 
 haystay is easier).

cool site, but they put The Time Machine on there. Not sure I'd call that a 
B-movie. It's actually pretty good, and holds up even now. Sure, you have to 
overlook all the blonde beautiful white folk who live outside and look like 
they get their hair done at a salon. But the FX are good--honestly, better than 
the stuff on the Sci Fi Originals movies. George Pal (who also did the FX for 
War of the Worlds) was a master.  There's a lot of seriousness in The Time 
Machine.

Now, just below that, they list The Tingler. Defintely a B-movie, and a great 
one at that!

Now, the *remake* of The Time Machine can go right at the top of the Worst

about ninety-nine cents. (Would any of the SW flicks qualify as B-movies?)

Not sure I'd call that a B-movie. It's actually pretty good, and holds up even 
now. Sure, you have to overlook all the blonde beautiful white folk who live 
outside and look like they get their hair done at a salon. But the FX are 
good--honestly, better than the stuff on the Sci Fi Originals movies. George 
Pal (who also did the FX for War of the Worlds) was a master. There's a lot

Yeah, the remake sucked. Actually, if you're thinking of the one with Guy 
Pearce and that Black Irish actress, it's the second remake I can think of. The 
first was a TV movie back in the '80s, which was typical of the time, with a 
Logan's Run/Six Million Dollar Man/Buck Rogers in the 25th Century vibe--but it 
was still better than Pearce's movie!

Very, very good question about the Star Wars films. They are, after all, 
popcorn flicks in may ways, and hail back tothe movie serial days. I think 
though, i wouldn't quite put them in b-movie territory. They have  excellent 
production values, high-level FX, musical scores, some good dramatic moments 
that aren't camp, and despite wookies and ewoks, an overall seriousness in 
their own way.

my fave b scifi movies would definitely have to be whole live action 
giant robot series. robot jox, robot wars, and crash  burn. all of 
which i own on vhs. robot jox had the best graphics. even if you can 
tell that they were using models there's something about acutally 
building something to scale. man i miss the old days when they actually 
had to build stuff. 
i also like a really obscure movie call space marines. it's been a 
while since i saw it. i doubt it'll ever end up on scifi (it just 
doesn't have the crappy factor that their looking for) i wish i could 
find it. it actually had a half way decent plot. something about trying 
to stop a dictator from getting a superweapon. oddly enough the movie 
was made in 1989 i think so go figure.

it is funny and Good (and, a must for a good B movie - it has an
excellent nude scene)!  I wanted to love Basket Case about a

Wasn't Decoys a (gasp) Sci-FI Original?

If so, I think I remember being  a little impressed by the opening  
cinematography, then being horribly put off by the opening bit of  
dialogue.

Do any of the Robocops count as B movies now? I think it's clear  
that  Robocop  2 deserves to  be on all of our lists.

As for the animated Starship Troopers series getting it right.   Um. Yes and 
no.   The suits and training they got almost right (of course they'll get the 
suits right).   The storyline started true-to-form but deviated from the book 
around the series middle.   And the main character they f'ed up on being that 
Jonny himself was a blond, blue eyed caucasion (not philipeno-which the 
roughnecks series got right on).   But carmin was nearly spot on perfect.

Eitherway dispite it's pluses they got enough wrong on the project that the 
Heinlin people didn' like it overall from what I heard.   Still it was alot 
better than the movies.

And I'm still trying to get that f**%ng series (finding a needie in a 
haystay is easier).

I don't think Decoys was a Sci Fi Original. Just a few years ago, the bulk of 
the movies aired on Sci Fi were films they'd obtained from other sources. 
Things like Re-Animator, Lake Placid, a bunch of Steven King miniseries, 
etc. I think Decoy was from that group. Almost without fail, the Originals 
have been very crappy in writing, and distinguished by supposedly more 
modern, but miserable, CGI.

Wasn't Decoys a (gasp) Sci-FI Original?

If so, I think I remember being a little impressed by the opening 
cinematography, then being horribly put off by the opening bit of 
dialogue.

Do any of the Robocops count as B movies now? I think it's clear 
that Robocop 2 deserves to be on all of our lists.

 year while watching it at 4 am!

 And wonder of wonders, it's airing on Sci Fi *right now*!
