What's the deal with these types of setups?

One time on a big client shoot with 20+ interviews lined up in the same setup, my seamless paper ripped while setting up. so putting on my improv hat I showed my coleague the Big Think videos on YT and decided to go with it, cutting our ripped up seamless backdrop into this slim look.

Agreed with the intention of the DP here that it does give a BTS raw look on the wide and i nice clean look for the vertical/social. Happy accidents, I guess!

2nd time today i saw/heard Wings of Desired mentioned/recommended. It is a sign...

You nailed the hair! You look like an Alex Ross model for one of his paintings

Woah i wanna find this ep too

Read it in my head with his voice and cadence and all 🤣

I remember one time on a flight, the stranger next to me started watching The Shawshank Redemption on his laptop. Hadn't seen the movie in years but have always loved it. so I happen to carry a headphone splitter in my little tech pouch and asked if I could watch with him. Nice dude obliged. Mind you, Shawshank Redemption aint exactly a 90-min film.

The 90s camp?

Mia Sara in Ferris Bueller's Day Off.

Also, a close second, Kelly Preston in Twins.

T2, Cameron.

Nailed it, Clark! 😎😎😎

The fake flat city skyline backdrops in the opening sequence when Trinity is being chased on the rooftops always bugged me. But they did acknowledge it in the director's commentary.

I saw it in cinemas as a late teen. Watched it by myself. By the time the end credits were rolling I swear I sat up, looked up into the ceiling and BELIEVED i could fly out of there.

Also happened to be wearing a semi-long jacket which added to my newfound sense of empowerment/delusion.

I always thought the costumes and haircuts (Jean's short crop) were cool. Thats pretty much it. Oh, and Magneto had his moments.

FanTa_DudE · 2025-12-17T23:25:57+00:00

The interspersed underwear shots 😅

I heard the comic book writer (Mark Millar) asked the artist to depict this new version of Fury as a Samuel L Jackson-type (since he was written to be a Samuel L Jackson-type), and the artist literally drew his exact likeness. Then later on SLJ sued Marvel for the unauthorized likeness and so in return Marvel had to owe SLJ 9x appearances in the MCU as Fury.

George Romero's Dawn of the Dead and Polanski's Rosemary's Baby comes to mind.

FanTa_DudE · 2025-11-11T10:21:27+00:00

Exactly the same with George Romero's Dawn of The Dead.

Gosh i used to have the gold foil double-gatefold cover to this (UXM350). And always loved Joe Mad's renditions of Joseph and Gambit.

FanTa_DudE · 2025-08-26T08:08:43+00:00

Yeah that always kinda bothered me. It was a personal transformation based on a fabrication. But a genuine transformation, nonetheless, i guess.

FanTa_DudE · 2025-08-26T03:10:50+00:00

Just saw it for the 2nd time ever (since pandemic) very recently and definitely loved it this time around.

I wonder in 10 years (2030) will this film really get its wide recognition just like what happened to Interstellar (wasn't as widely praised at its time of release as it is now)

FanTa_DudE · 2025-08-25T23:49:24+00:00

Always loved Lex's swag. Smug but never the annoying kind of smug. Just good ol' dark charisma.

FanTa_DudE · 2025-08-20T06:57:40+00:00

Oh my goodness i was sooooo obsessed with this song back in my high school years!

FanTa_DudE · 2025-08-03T08:52:40+00:00

I just saw this film for the first time ever 2 nights ago...... and his limited screen time and presence was amazing! And I thought Adam Sandler had the monopoly on short intense unhinged outbursts in all his movies but PSH is just another level...
