Okay, time for my weekly rant so buckle up. The vocal stages were okay-I cant really remember them well because I watched them only once so take what I say with a grain of salt. Well I watched the Spark one once and I only got through half of the other one because I can’t stand ballads especially when there’s no interesting movement on stage to keep me engaged. Like it’s no fault of the members themselves or the song (I actually think their singing was incredibly beautiful and Eunkwang always sings like his wife just left him with the kids which is how you know he’s good) but I physically could not pay attention. That’s why I liked the spark stage a bit better-there was enough movement that I was able to focus on it. I really liked the use of the fire and the way they were walking in and out of the frame trading off parts so there weren’t too many awkward moments where the other members where on stage but not doing anything. The opening was gorgeous with each members being lit by the spotlight as they harmonize. So stagewise, I prefer Spark but vocally I think the other group was stronger. I love Spark and Taeyon is such an incredible vocalist (I mean the song is great because of her) so I don’t get why their delivery was, I don’t want to say weak, but subdued might be a better word. The only one that really stood out was Junhoe (but also that man couldn’t not stand out even if he tried, not with that incredibly rasp) and even he seemed to be holding himself back a bit. Though it was a bit slow it built up well to the two last choruses but still the first half could have been stronger. I know they were trying to draw it out to a strong pay off but I don’t really know if it was enough. And yes the suits were *chef’s kiss*. I think at this point in their career the FNC stylist has put SF9 in so many suits they’ve got it down to a science. Also I’m a sucker for those shirts with the triangle cut out and we got not one but two of them here.

Okay moving on, I’m not sure which group was next but I’ll talk about the Ikon stage. It seems like they finally realized that they’re on a performance based competition show so they decided to pull out the big guns. Love the little skit at the beginning (making sure people don’t forget that they’re YG), it was cute and refreshing. I really appreciated how they leaned into the campy acting in this stage (Stray kids did it too-just adding to the similarities between their stages). The song was meh but I also don’t really like BP especially not their recent stuff so it’s not a big deal. I would have preferred if they had gone with another song maybe Whistle or As If It’s Your Last or if they’d done a 2NE1 song like Chanwoo mentioned some point in the episode. I also think the stage would have been way smoother if they’d let Ikon and Lisa interact. Like if the boys appeared in her set after her section and then they all moved back to the first jungle set and then the whole thing turns gold and they did a dramatic outfit change (but with better jackets because theirs look like they came out of Party City). I also get what you mean about the dancers outfits not being that great. I actually really liked the outfits of Lisa’s dancers in isolation but they didn’t match with her or the set so they threw me off a bit. At least with the ikon members they were going for a modern look so the dancers outfits didn’t look that strange in comparison. Do you think it would have been better if they were white? How would you have improved then? The best way I can describe this performance was that it was a stage, stuff happened, I enjoyed myself but I don’t plan to revisit it anytime soon. Oh and we also have to give points for them cursing on national television not once but twice (at this point Jinwan deserves to say fuck).

Now to Stray Kids. So I feel like I need to preface this with the fact that I am actually a stray kids fan (I won’t call myself a stay because I don’t associate with the fandom) and though I’ve been really critical of them and their stages tend to be my least favorite I still have a soft spot for them (I got into this show because of them after all). I loved, loved, loved the intro with Felix (and yes his biggest flaw is that he’s Australian but I forgive him for it) and the way it immediately transitions into the chorus of DDD-the abrupt transition does fit really well with the Deadpool theme and I guess it is the closest they’re going to get to the feeling of yeeting themselves into traffic like in the movie. Interesting choice to start with the chorus. Now that I’m rewatching it I do really wish they stuck with the comic theme. I think that’s my gripe with SKZ-they have a lot of good ideas but they move on too quickly from them. Just pick a handful of things and sprinkle them throughout instead of cycling through them at breakneck speed. Like okay they’re doing Deadpool and he’s a comic character so keep the comic styling (it would have been a good thing to put in the projection behind Seungmin’s scene), maybe in the subway they could have had some fight choreo so the guns coming in at Lee Knows part aren’t out of nowhere (also someone please tell me they were trying to recreate the meme with the cat and the knives, please I need to know). I absolutely agree that them having a goal or an antagonist would have really helped the story along. I mean they literally have a spoken intro so why couldn’t Felix just tell us who they were fighting (and I’m pretty sure in the movie Wade tells us he’s trying to kill Francis in that scene sooo). As always they put more focus on the rappers (please can we get less Changbin and more Seungmin, Jeongin, or Lee Know or at least give Felix more parts). Seungmin was the real mvp of this stage and he had the best outfit (I think it qualifies for Hanya’s best gay little outfit list). Personally I with they hadn’t gone with Gods Menu again. I’ve been hoping that they would perform My Pace (and maybe remix it with their B-side TA off their Go Live album) because that would be such a fun stage. Again, I enjoyed myself but I won’t revisit it anytime soon. At this point the only groups I actually look forward to are BTOB and SF9 (they’re doing fucking Move and I don’t know whether to be excited or terrified-there’s a clip of Taeyang covering Move from a variety show or interview and I think he does it really well so I know at least one of them can pull it off). Again thanks for creating space where I can info dump and I hope I said something of interest to you!

i think you wrote more than me!! i love this, im gonna put my response under a cut im not being super obnoxious on the dash.

i get that the mayfly stage would be not as visually stimulating for people and usually i would count myself in with that crowd because i love a good spectacle but i think because i watched the spark stage first and my colour perception is sometimes weird so when there's a lot of movement with very little colour variation my tiny pea brain loses track of whats happening really quickly. especially with red. so it was kind of difficult for me to pay attention to the spark stage in the second half. also i absolutely HATE watching people flub on stage because it brings up such visceral secondhand feelings that i couldn't even watch the stage when i started the full episode today.

i love a good suit but you know what i would also love: sf9 in more costume variations. tbh im just getting nitpicky about it because im a costume designer down to the core and i got trained by a designer who specialized in doing avant garde costuming so i tend to skew more towards wild than reserved. it looks like the move stage wont be be suits so ill take it, but oh man to do i want to see some really crazy stuff. which i know they'll never do because idols have to be pretty at all times or the fans get mad but oh i want it so badly.

do you mean how i would improve ikon's backup dancers outfits or lisa's? here why dont i do both. for lisa's dancers i would have just done away with that harness shape all together, its almost exclusively a military style. the jackets by themselves would have been fine but really what they should have done was put them in something that matched the gold but contrasted enough to give them shape. by having at least her dancers in all black on a gold stage there was a lot of "haha look at me do a duck walk because lets throw in some voguing for spice." they could have gone with a mesh bodysuit idea similar to what she was wearing or even just different colour coats. as for ikon's backup dancers, firstly pants. not black. or even a longer skirt. genuinely a part of the reason why i dont watch girl group content is because i HATE the hem length of the shorts they make everyone wear. words cannot describe how much i hate that cut. kpop is so obsessed with showing off women's bodies and especially their legs but they do it in the LEAST flattering way possible because it "can't be too risqué," just shoot me now. i hate it. i hate it so fucking much. yea yea everybody was on cocaine in the 80s whatever but at least they were all wearing french cut bodysuits so their legs looked fantastic. stop interrupting the lines!! anyways. pants so the only section of skin showing is thigh to mid calf, especially because they weren't even doing any fun legwork! if they really wanted to keep the full sleeve bodysuits they shout have done them in a fabric with a texture or external embellishments, like a patent/vinyl or sequins/rhinestones. something to catch the stage lights so we can actually see the shape of the limb. but the easiest way to fix it is literally just cut the arms off the bodysuits. stages are lit to show off skin, sometimes the best way to have something be seen is just to have it bare.

i agreed skz cycles through ideas way too fast, they need to just pick a couple and stick them out through the stage instead of just adding more and more different ones throughout. also ok good someone else noticed that there is just...so much changbin. we don't need that much changbin. i know there's other boys in the group let them do something! also im pretty sure theyre not recreating the cat knife meme but actually the promo image from john wick chapter two, which i also could have sworn i saw a deadpool version of as an instagram ad back when movies were happening, but now that im looking for it it doesn't exist so i might be crazy.

im excited for the move stage but im also trepidatious because...its move. i have NO clue what the concept is from the previews so i just hope its weird enough to take it enough out of the taemin context for me to enjoy it.

Film that will leave you speachless

The hottest film via Christopher Nolan (The Batman Trilogy, Inception) is certain to be, for many, the most anticipated video from the year. This is especially considering the affiliate marketing tease of epic intergalactic exploration, the simple fact that it can be shot in a combination of anamorphic 35mm together with IMAX 70mm (and will certainly be projected both in formats), and brings in you behind the McConaissance. This might be Nolan’s most ambitious movie but, as he endeavors to help balance an close existential history about the particular power of love together with their ability to combine individuals and families together with each other across time and room, with credulous scientific hypothesizing about cosmic physics together with a new demanding mission to help save the world. At the same time it is his most intellectually wobbly, narratively goofy in addition to remarkably forgettable. Since interesting as Christopher and even Jonathan Nolan’s ideas can be, and as outstanding while the former’s vision like a overseer is, this will not hold up to also moderate analysis. Failing for you to grasp how the startling final act revelations work is not a deal-breaker for me personally, but I can not reduce the mediocre writing that plagues this film, in spite of the substantial visible beauty and the spectacular depiction of unexplored locations of deep area. Cooper (Matthew McConaughey), a good widowed engineer turned character, is living on an Soil that is slowly becoming increasingly eco-friendly devastated together with uninhabitable. He is dwelling on his plantation along with his late wife’s papa (John Lithgow) and his or her a couple of children Murphy (Mackenzie Foy) and Tom (Timothée Chalamet). This individual is stop your puppy biting Tom to follow inside his footsteps, even though the curious Murphy shares their fancy for engineering. Following a really serious dust storm, which will recurrent the area and are worsening, Cooper and Murphy happen to be led to mysterious coordinates by the strange (but easily accepted) gravitational abnormality in Murphy’s bed room. Your woman believes she has a cat, but a thing has surely been playing about together with her books. These people discover themselves in a top-secret NASA base run by simply Professor Brand (Michael Caine) and his daughter Amelia (Anne Hathaway). As the idea happens, some sort of wormhole offers been discovered in close proximity to Saturn that can connect extensively separated areas of space-time and act as the web site into another galaxy. Manufacturer cible that Cooper sign up for his team regarding scientists on a journey to find a humanly habitable world in a good similar universe. Cooper struggling while using decision to abandon his two children – Murphy is specially unforgiving, offered the fact that he / she cannot promise a return – but he sooner or later makes the decision to join Amelia, Doyle (an impressively bewhiskered Wes Bentley), Romilly (David Gyasi) as well as a robotic identified as TARS (voiced by Monthly bill Irwin) for the mission. Precisely what has grow to be clearer in reflection is merely how poorly spaced Interstellar is. All of us rocket throughout the first action, with almost everything thinly created and the storytelling goals very skewed. By the time Cooper launches off, concerning forty minutes in, what on earth is actually happening to the Planet they is leaving right behind plus the specifics of this mission are usually cloudy. This is all passed in by a Caine monologue. The ghostly anomaly in Murphy’s room also lacks the convincing context to support it. But once the vision starts the film decreases significantly, only to awkwardly get the pace in the ultimate act while the dual narratives (space and earth) begin to link. Similarly with the accessibility into space there will be a extraordinary increase throughout spectacle – their very own entry into the wormhole is just one of some of the virtually all formidable aesthetic examples connected with space to be ever put on film – and this is what viewers will assume. Some connected with this does rival masterpieces like 2001: A Space Journey, Sunshine and Gravity, although this craved vision is usually disappointingly intermittent. Thinking of the film’s gargantuan range, and the pins the fact that go with their selection to be able to examine each entire world – a short span associated with time one, equates to decades on earth for example – it is basically rarely stressed. Nevertheless any time the visual splendour, mental stakes and Hans Zimmer’s substantial organ-heavy report will be all in synchronize it is quite exciting. This mostly comes about pretty late in the troublesome run time. All these incredible moments are segregated by way of clunky science jargon-heavy exposition blocks that have the characters in his or her craft debating the following course of action, organizing all around speculation and producing crude drawings and images to clarify just what will be going on. Since the particular vision is so in short , sketched outside initially, this course of action requires such consideration. The planets they land on will be attractively represented, wonderfully realized industrys. But, what comes about even though they’re there is usually much less given the assurance. This particular is a double-hander in order to confuse matters. Jessica Chastain since the elder Murphy gets to be a central character inside the second 50 percent, reaching out to a good aging Health practitioner Brand and attempting to finish his life’s work while by no means offering up on her father’s go back. The cast is fine, with none of them in close proximity to their best. McConaughey’s persona is the heart and even heart of the film, as well as the most moving occasions can be because of the dog. He delivers his bronzed, weathered appearance and is about as good an everyman rocket scientist when you could expect. Hathaway’s personality is initially really uninteresting but becomes progressively more intriguing, She is a new scientist because we take the woman father’s term for it, and her fancy with regard to one of the previous looking astronauts (and the desire of seeing him again) is the trigger for some turmoil among the crew, and describes one of many key themes associated with the film. I can not recall Eileen Caine getting the brand of normal dialogue. He is either detailing elements of the story, or quoting a graceful passage of wisdom or something or other. Chastain doesn’t really have some sort of good deal to do, sadly. In my experience along with Christopher Nolan films – aside from Inception, Memento in addition to Insomnia, which I actually think are great : they are exciting cinematic experiences that que incluye us into thinking I have noticed something remarkable. But, view them again on home and the thin characters, broadly sketched and heavy-handed themes or templates and often-ludicrous conversation hinder one’s understanding. Nolan has proven to be a far better overseer than screenwriter, and My partner and i would not think it features been whole lot more apparent compared to in Interstellar. Having observed this in IMAX, it has turned out to be able to be one of often the more frustrating experiences My partner and i have had because atmosphere. Even on the planets biggest screen I was not involved in this. My spouse and i was absorbed in display screen, sure, but not in all in the tale. Much of the film looks great. Accomplished DP Hoyte Suv Hoytema (Tinker Tailor Enthusiast Traveler, Her) ensures of which it does not necessarily look like Nolan’s last few movies. Mulan torrent They don’t look terrible – quite the counter – but similar. With that said, the first act (pre-space) seems to be distractingly poor. Im not necessarily really sure exactly why. The was very dim, oranges and browns were over-accentuated and the close-up hefty compositions ended up not necessarily provided well because of the enormity involving the screen.

Over a closing note, this is the more film. The prospect of humanity is in the hands and fingers of these astronauts, nonetheless there is not the shred connected with awareness regarding the silliness from the plan. Even the attempts with jokes mostly fall flat. This is a video that is seeking very hard to be consumed critically together with provoke a market to contemplate big ideas, but simply by pushing it has the audience to consentrate it reveals its superb camouflaged narrative issues.
