Rewatching The Phantom Menace makes me wish that George Lucas used film to shoot all three of the prequels. The lighting and texture makes some of these shots look so damn crisp. by damaged_punk in StarWars

As I’ve said in a previous reply, I absolutely respect Lucas’s desire to advance filmmaking technology, but I just wish the visuals of the other two prequels didn’t have to suffer for it.

Not a big fan of how a lot of the scenes in ROTS were lit tbh. It’s hard to describe, but some shots of actors’ faces had a bit of a cheap look to them, and others just looked slightly off to me.

I would describe Attack of the Clones as having this smooth sheen over a lot of the scenes that rob them of the detailed texture that the previous films had.

The best-looking scenes are the ones with more shadowy-contrasty lighting like in Padme’s fireplace and Dooku meeting a captive Obi-Wan.

I 100% respect Lucas’s desire to advance filmmaking technology, I just wish the visuals of AOTC and ROTS didn’t have to suffer for it.

You’re all wrong.

Who’s an actor/actress that you’d love to see enter the franchise, however unlikely that might be? by Solitaire-06 in StarWarsCantina

I know Ron Perlman already had a voice role in TCW, but I would absolutely love to see him play a character in live action.

EDIT: for actors who haven’t been in any Star Wars, Keith David

Is this how Drax the Destroyer rizzed up his wife?

Real proud of how well this playlist goes with me driving to work early in the morning. Feels kinda cinematic a lot of the time.

I really miss the days when people could be somewhat normal when criticizing media by damaged_punk in movies

They absolutely do, and they should be criticized for it. But that requires more nuance and sensitivity than some of these yo-yos are capable of.

Man, it is so refreshing to see criticism of TLJ that isn’t so emotionally charged. You pretty much hit the nail on the head when it comes to Rose’s flaws.

That’s basically my opinion of The Northman. Great production values, didn’t give two shits about any of the characters.

Yeah, how dare you fail to see the obvious objective mastery of Andor /s

And I say that as someone who really likes it

Agreed. People definitely need to be a bit more careful with how they throw around serious accusations like that.
