David Cronenberg on Christopher Nolan:
"For me, Christopher Nolan's best film is Memento, and his films today aren't as good. Hasn't he been destroyed by Hollywood? I don't know. It's a very dramatic way of seeing things, but maybe there was another Christopher Nolan, more interesting to my taste, who wouldn't be as successful today if he'd continued down the path of Memento."
Excerpt from an interview in 2014.
@aakashgupta And entertainment journalists have the guts to say "it looks like The Matrix". "The Matrix" wouldn't even be called like that if it wasn't for @GreatDismal
@mikeymcelwee@MuseZack He was different even in the Lost World novel: in the Jurassic Park group, he was supposed to be dead. In the sequel, the "doctors did a good job" and he's still alive but apparently his past experience changed him. It is never explained, but you get the sense that happened.
@HarryHa42285349@NicholeDelly Ever seen an IMAX camera? It's massive and so is the magazine: 3 minutes (Damon is wrong, it lasts a little longer) is the max they can do. Film is always limited by the fact it is a physical format one way or the other.
@NicholeDelly@HarryHa42285349 It's actually 65mm, like regular 70mm. The negative spinning in the camera is always 65mm - the prints (whenever they exist, IMAX or not) are 70mm because you need another 5mm for the sound tracks, unlike 35mm (which always stays the same size).
@AestheticGamer1 ...he actually wrote the story of OG RE4 himself because Noboru Sugimura told him he couldn't do it in the short time he was given when development got rebooted for the 4th time. He admitted he was hoping the remake was going to be better written.
@project_umb Ironically, all the extra Wesker bits from X were not part of the original scenario. The unseen Wesker scenes were all about him being on his sub (first sinking Chris' ship with torpedoes around Rockfort Island, then escaping the Antartica base on it as it blew up).
@HighSierraMan@WilliCaroline@jruggiero86 May I ask how many of them were speaking from first or at worst second-hand experience and how many were just reporting gossip instead? I've been around the film biz long enough to know that, no matter the country, it is the world's worst hair salon when it comes to gossiping.
@cvxfreak It is actually the best OST the series ever got, an evolution of what was done on RE2. Certain tracks, like “The Hanged Doll” or “The Code is Veronica” simply stick with you.
@ATRightMovies Legend - shot by the late, largerly-forgotten Alex Thompson BSC. Whatever thin plot it does have, it gets in the imagery's way. BTW - stay away from the US cut.
@gasparripdl Mi sta accusando di rubare o sprecare denaro? Io parlo di maestranze. Sui furti e gli sprechi, poi, voialtri fareste meglio a tacere, che bastano i canili in Albania e la signora Santanchè a piede libero a qualificarvi.
@gasparripdl@LucaBizzarri@AndreaScanzi Da lavoratore del settore cinetelevisivo, la invito caldamente a tacere perché il SUO governo sta distruggendo il suddetto settore solo per fare un dispetto alla Sinistra, sulla pelle di noialtri che per voi non esistiamo. Per i pensionati: la cosa si riflette anche sull'INPS.
@RageTheme@joerussotweets A movie is not "art" only because it's 3 hours long, it's slow, and throws in a couple of extended music numbers. SINNERS is a movie for people who hate horror and desperately want to feel smart.
