Patrick Tomasso x "Why Don't Movies Look Like Movies Anymore?"

Remember when movies used to look good? Rich shadows, bold colors, and depth. But now? A lot of films and shows look flat, dull, and lifeless. [...] Let's talk about dynamic range, lighting, and why intentional choices matter more than ever.

Man, the internet is out of its mind. Not only am I seeing people say Furiosa looks bad visually but these chucklefucks are even lumping it in with shit like Cats and Thor: Love & Thunder! I think its looks gorgeous for one but even if you don't like it, you should at least be able to tell the difference between what is clearly a deliberate choice in terms of visual styling and storytelling and what's the result of some Marvel exec telling some already overworked, kept-vertical-solely-by-adderal-and-caffeine VFX artist that "hey, I know it's like two weeks from the premiere but we need you to redo the entire last hour of the movie...", ffs. None of these people will see Valhalla.

While much of the prosthetic makeup in the FX period drama Shōgun goes unnoticed, that’s actually the point. It helps achieve the kind of realism the narrative demands, explains Emmy-winning makeup artist Suzie Klimack, who worked on the Port Moody-shot series.

hypnotized guillermo in 6x03: I've always fantasized about being one. A vampire, that is. When I was little, I begged my mom for a cape. She didn't have the money for it, but somehow, she found a way of making one. And I put that cape on, and I just fantasized about what it would be like to fly all over the world, no one picking on you, live forever … I was a pretty shy kid, so I didn't have a lot of friends. But I'm sure you can understand that? nandor: Not really. I was rich and a jock … but I can imagine. Must have been very, um … hard.

nandor in 6x10: [proposes an unbreakable alliance of hunting bullies together and says that's the reason they were brought together, not vampirism]

nandor at the end of 6x10 inviting guillermo back into the house: first on the agenda, let's talk capes.

nandor in 6x11: *buys guillermo a cape*

or: it was in this most recent rewatch of 6x03 that i realized that nandor's superhero proposal, while very random on the surface, is actually about him trying to give guillermo his lifelong dream of what it would feel like to be a vampire, since actually being a vampire didn't fulfill it.

A JEDI KNIGHT'S FALL AND UNNATURAL RISE TO POWER -- THE MAKINGS OF A DARK LORD OF THE SITH.

PIC(S) INFO: Part 2 of 2 for "Revenge of the Fifth" -- Spotlight on film stills from "STAR WARS: Episode III -- Revenge of the Sith" (2005), depicting Anakin's gradual fall to the dark side of the Force and his reemergence as Sith apprentice Darth Vader, Dark Lord of the Sith.

DARREN REA: "The final Star Wars film is called "Revenge of the Sith." Now most people know what a Jedi is, but won't have a clue what a Sith is. What is it?"

GEORGE LUCAS: "The Sith are people who are very self-centred and selfish. There used to be many Sith, but because they were corrupted by power and ambition, they killed each other off, so now there are only two -- a master and an apprentice.

Sith rely on their passion to get things done. They use their raw emotion, their hatred, their anger, their bitterness -- which is the dark side of the Force. The Force is what binds the galaxy together, and it has a good side and a bad side.

The Sith learned how to manipulate both sides of the Force, and then they fell into the trap of being corrupted by the dark side. The Jedi Knights are like marshals in the Wild West. It's their job to make sure everyone is protected, to bring peace. They are the enemy of the Sith, because the Sith want to dominate the galaxy, to control everything, and for a thousand years they have had a plot against the Jedi.

So, in this movie, it is time for them to seek revenge against the Jedi for perceived injustices and to carry out that plot."
