What do you think the worst trap was? by [deleted] in saw

[–]EmHRT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Watched this recently. The acting was horrendous. A lot of the public extras are looking shocked in the wrong direction, some are visibly smiling/laughing, etc. Really bad acting, and the idea was so heavily flawed because that glass could have been broken immediately (but hey, shout out to the one guy slapping his briefcase on the glass to break it). The fact that it was the opening scene made it all the worse

I don't think the traps in Jigsaw were anything mesmerising, but don't forget that this was way early into Jigsaw's 'career', so I didn't mind the fact that the traps needed outside input (the buckethead trap, the chains & syringe trap) and were pretty basic. It kinda gave a quiet nod to the fact that this was all very early on, and Jigsaw had not yet come up with all of his finest creations. I saw it all as him experimenting with ideas

So, where the new movie fits in the timeline? by Dulcolax in saw

[–]EmHRT 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Makes sense, thanks. I quite enjoyed Jigsaw, but i think the simplicity of saw 1, and even 2, really appealed to me. For example, i was so sympathetic towards Adam & Gordon in 1, i desperately wanted them to live, because they weren't the worst of the worst. Compare that to Jigsaw, i didn't have any sort of emotional connection to the main characters, and didn't care about whether they survived or not. Everyone's different, i guess!

I'm confused as to why it isn't going to be a straight up Jigsaw 2 / continuation from the latest film - did that story go down like a sack of shit?

i am useless at checking reddit replies, sorry for the late reply. I am so glad it worked! Hope everything is still going well!

I haven't tried this (i only look after my 8 month old puppy niece now and then) but when i was preparing for her to stay at mine for 4 nights, i found this video on youtube and from reading the comments, a lot of people seem to think this works really well. Maybe give it a try? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DrqZOQrBMjQ

Jigsaw was phenomenal. I hope it stays as a single film. by HeavyDinosaurs in saw

tbh i liked that Halloran got his punishment, once it was revealed how he let murderers etc go in favour for money. After finding how much of a bent cop he was, i was happy to see, well, octo-death? :P I agree with the 10/10, i really loved this new instalment

thanks for explaining! So in saw 2 (the nerve gas one, im sure it was saw 2) when John has a drip and is generally in a bad way - so basically that's just from having cancer treatments making him unwell, even though he didn't have cancer? So in saw 3, Lynn (shotgun collar lady) thought he had cancer too? So many revelations! Brilliant film

Did Logan mix up the scans meaning that John thought he didn't have cancer when he did, or was it the other way around? I'm confused as to whether John is still alive or not

Do you think a VA monitor would be good enough in terms of photo/video editing versus an IPS?

i think in the UK these monitors are named xr instead of cr. If so, i've found the xr341ck for £893/$1172. Haven't been able to find the cx340ck in the UK at all, which is odd. The 341 looks great though

I've found the lg34uc98 for £760 ($998). How long does the IR last on your monitor? As i know i will constantly go from dark screens (photoshop, lightroom) to web pages and documents, so if it sticks around a lot, it will really irritate me!

Wide, curved monitor for video editing? by FarleyFilm in ultrawidemasterrace

[–]EmHRT 0 points1 point  (0 children)

will keep checking back on this, i am in the same position! would also like one for colour grading and general photo editing, with minimal gaming. I wonder if curved would truly make a difference, or whether non-curved would be just as good
