jameson (ST) Posted October 11, 2010 Author Share Posted October 11, 2010 Actually I think Lucas has proved that CG can do some really great things but that no amount of sexy special effects can save a terrible film.The Original Trilogy featured some of the most cutting edge FX of their time and were great because the FX serviced story, the Prequels were the opposite, they are generally panned because the story was weak and the films almost pandered to the FX. People could learn a lot from Lucas, though I'm sure that his object lessons weren't all intentional. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matt Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 My friend that is doing the homepage blogs and I were discussing monster movies. There have been a bunch of good vampire and doppelgänger movies, but werewolves haven't fared that well in cinema. An American Werewolf In London was 1 of only a handful of werewolf movies that we could think of that were good. Some of the other movies that we discussed were Dog Soldiers, Ginger Snaps, Silver Bullet, Bad Moon and The Howling. Our discussion started because I watched Cursed, which was just a dreadful movie.

Dave ST Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 I've never seen Ginger Snaps, but people tell me it's a great werewolf movie. Silver Bullet was the first werewolf movie I saw growing up and it basically set the stage for me loving horror movies, followed by The Howling.Cursed wasn't that bad. Sure it was pretty bad, but I own it and have watched it a few times to assist with reference when I'm working werewolf related. One thing it did have that I don't see in most werewolf movies is that the werewolves were sentient, not blood thirsty predators. They were more cognizant of their actions which I thought was a nice touch.Now, if want to talk about dreadful movies... watch Modern Vampires.

Mr Fox Posted October 11, 2010 Share Posted October 11, 2010 Jar Jar Binks = trillions and trillions of computer cycles flushed right down the toilet. I hate gungans... they are an excellent argument for genocide. When I played Star Wars Galaxies I used to go out of my way to kill gungans. Did I mention that I hate gungans?

jameson (ST) Posted October 13, 2010 Author Share Posted October 13, 2010 I love the Shining. The book is the only thing I've ever read that gave me the creeps. The movie, which I saw alone at home, on a windy night (My parent's house creaks) when I was 13ish, gave me a deep persistent creep out that resulted in me taking the stairs up to my room with my back to the wall. To this day its one of the few Stephen King books that I feel was properly adapted to film even despite the changes, because the tone and creep-out factor were spot on. As a result this is my hands down favorite of the Treehouse of Horror skits, and this particular scene is one that I quote fairly regularly. Good stuff.

Krul Posted October 14, 2010 Share Posted October 14, 2010 Of course it is.. On a side note, Dracula was Bram Stoker's fifth and most famous work, he wrote a total of 12 books, before his death in 1912.Not counting short stories and other works.

Dawn OOC Posted October 18, 2010 Share Posted October 18, 2010 Kael, watch Pet Cemetary. I don't want to spoil anyone who might see it, so I outlined it in the spoiler box.Click to reveal.. In it, the basic plot is that anything buried in the Pet Sematary comes back. They come back wrong, possessed and evil. The protag's son is killed and he breaks down, digs up his corpse and buries him in the Pet Sematary. The boy comes back, kills the neighbor and the protag's wife, then attacks the protag. I found the image of a two year old walking around with a scapel and saying, "First I play with Judd, then Mommy came, and I play with Mommy. We play Daddy! We had a awfully good time! Now, I want to play with YOU!" to be the damned creepist things ever. Of course, YMMV. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
