    A1, if you didn't get the "cites" on this page, I'd weep a little for you.

    I really, really want this movie to be good. I almost need it to be good. This and Godzilla were the only two summer "tent pole" movies I really needed to be good. Godzilla delivered, now this has to. Please, please please be good.

    There's more monster action in Godzilla than in Gojira.
  4. Duke Togo
    I'd say less.
  5. Duke Togo
    Then apparently you have a very poor memory.
  6. Duke Togo
    I take it you've never seen the original.

    It's ok, we're back to calling them monsters again with Godzilla.

    They took the Jaws/Alien approach--it's the slow burn. The problem is Aaron Taylor-Johnson can't carry the film through it's second act. He has zero charisma and shows no emotion. Where Roy Scheider's Brody shines in Jaws, Aaron Taylor-Johnson's Brody fails in Godzilla, and it's glaringly obvious. Still, the slow burn pays off in spades in the third act.

    Awesome. I actually teared up with the first roar. And then again at the end. I had a huge smile on my face through a good chunk of the movie. Sure, most of the human characters are forgettable and inconsequential (not surprisingly, Ken Watanabe is the best of the bunch, and he doesn't waste his screen time), but we aren't there to see them. I cheered and laughed and really enjoyed it. Miles better than Pacific Rim. That was totally me several times in the movie.

    Still not quite sure what this is about. That's ok, though.

    Major grain of salt, as The Latino Review has pretty much shat the bed with most of their supposed leaks and rumors regarding Episode 7.

    And he is doing the same in the Rebels series. In other news: IT HAS BEGUN! Photo: Day One of ‘Star Wars 7′ Filming Begins "ND 6 bringing down two stops to a 5.6 stop. Probably long anamorphic lens on close up. 5.6 is a high stop for spherical lenses, but ok for slow anamorphics, especially if looking for more depth of field on close ups. If shooting on 200 ASA film stock, base exposure at 11 might indicate a lot of light and it’s an exterior. You’re welcome, nerds."

    Some news: Star Wars: Episode 7 Cast Members Oscar Isaac & Andy Serkis Interviews. Filming With Cast Members to Start at the End of May? Rumor: A Second Unit Star Wars Crew Had a Helicopter Incident in Iceland? Serkis says filming starts at the end of this month.

    Mhmm

    I assume you're going to keep trying this "joke" until someone laughs? 2012 called, it wants it's Lucas jokes back.

    They would not have asked him recently. Count on him having been written out if the script already.

    See a few posts up. Again, obviously fake list is obviously fake.

    I like the little ears on the new batsuit.

    Who?

    Just a heads up: I won't be posting anything that I consider to be spoilerish, because I don't want to read any spoilers to begin with. There are set descriptions from what they've been working on in Abu Dhabi out there, along with further reports as to the nature of Harrison Ford's role in Episode 7 which I am simply not touching. If you do want to share this material, please post it in spoiler tags.

    Denis Lawson aka Wedge Antilles Turned Down Disney's Offer to Return in Star Wars: Episode 7 No Wedge

    It appears that Star Wars 7 production is being hidden under the name "AVCO." It's named after a prominent theater in LA that showed the original Star Wars back in '77. This is similar to how the production of Return of the Jedi used the title Blue Harvest to mask filming activities.

    Emulation solves all these issues. It's 2014, not 1994.
  25. Duke Togo
    Wait, what? I'm not following your logic.
