What is good?—Whatever augments the feeling of power, the will to power, power itself, in man. What is evil?—Whatever springs from weakness. What is happiness?—The feeling that power increases—that resistance is overcome.

@SubDuke1970 @inceptstellar The London ones are usually packed on the weekends and premiers, but saw Lawrence of Arabia in 70mm one afternoon and the theatre was basically empty.

@Cade_Onder It can’t match 70mm IMAX but my 85” OLED with a 5.1.4 Atmos setup is better than regular cinema and almost as good as digital IMAX

@couldbebrillig @oktruetho The industry understands the market WAY better than you. A miniscule number of people even know what aspect ratio or 70mm is. And even less have a home system that could take advantage of it. Twitter fetishists are not representative of the consumer base for blu rays.

@politicalmath A Clockwork Orange is as good as the film (but has a worse ending). Lolita is marginally better. But both movie versions are masterpieces.

This looks horrible. The bokeh is super distracting like one of those funky soviet helios lenses. Never understood how filmmakers are allowed to get away with the Liemax scam. They should have to shoot IMAX 15/70 or call it something else. x.com/adamhlavac/sta…

Greig Fraser used newly designed vertical-squeezed anamorphic lenses to achieve the 1.43:1 @IMAX ratio on the Arri Alexa 65 camera and its native 2.11 sensor, leading to vertical flares and unique bokeh in the image. Source: @ARRIRental (instagram.com/p/DWGzs86EyIb/…)

@VonClaytonGames @AxelTalksFilm It's similar to a filter. But the silver halide crystals on the film will still react to the digital image being scanned, so better than slapping on a grain filter in post. The resolution will (effectively) be capped at whatever the acquisition format was.

@AxelTalksFilm is this effectively different than something like a filter in post? Also isnt one of the biggest boons of film the "unlimited" resolution potential

Cinematographer Grieg Fraser is known for using a process called "film out" in which he scans his footage captured on digital cameras onto 35 or 70mm film prints, & then scanned back in order to achieve a more organic look which adds the more grainy, warmer shadows, and chemical based colors of film. And it allows the flexibility & convenience of shooting with digital cameras on enormous sets, & for a skilled DP like Fraser, completely gets rid of the flat look of digital often seen in blockbusters. He's done it with both Dune films, The Batman, and now Project Hail Mary. My favorite DP in Hollywood, maestro.

@NotKevinBrenna1 @mattmccrac Leung's emotional journey was clear. But the movie is too dense to get the same accolades with western audiences as ABSD. I think Goodbye South Goodbye or Millennium Mambo would have a better chance at competing with ABSD as the best Taiwanese nw film as judged by westerners.

@0xProcession @mattmccrac Hou’s great is that he makes politics personal, so regardless of real history, you can absolutely understand what’s happening with the Tony Leung character

@NotKevinBrenna1 @mattmccrac I knew a bit about the Japanese Occupation going in, but was still lost. Not a criticism. I like the fact that it's a film by a Taiwanese filmmaker made for a Taiwanese audience. And not made for the festival circuit (aka westerners). Still a beautiful film nonetheless.

@USGrant1227 @adrianmckinty If you want muh character development, read the book. Film is a visual and aural medium. And Malick is a poet. Possibly the greatest modern example of a great artist not being appreciated in their own country. Malick is revered here in Europe.

@adrianmckinty Probably the most overrated war film ever made. It's terribly pretentious, drags to the point of eye-rolling boredom, and features people you couldn't care less about because Malick was more concerned with filming scenery than he was developing characters.

@NotKevinBrenna1 @mattmccrac This one is a lot harder to understand if you don't have a background in Taiwanese history. I found it the most inscrutable of his history films. ABSD is very easy to follow, despite the length.

@0xSchnitzel @JWelker75079 @jonatanpallesen Britain ruled Ireland for almost 1000yrs. And they were literally the same country for over 100yrs. All of this during Britain's most dominant period. Many great men of the British Empire were Irish or had Irish ancestry.

It's an interesting fact of human history that we have these two similar sized islands, Japan and the UK that are close to a mainland, and have had outsized influence and power throughout history compared to their size. Having an island of a certain size or above separated from the mainland really seems like a powerful starting position. Both held their own historically against the significantly larger continental rival (France, China). Madagascar and the southern African mainland present a similar geographical arrangement, but it hasn't had the same historical importance.

@KaiLaigo @pitoumoder @TheAnkler You fell for the "become an ai filmmaker" psyop? The whole point of ai filmmaking is that there's no money in it except for the people selling you the model.

@pitoumoder @TheAnkler Me. I'm making those films. Thanks for asking. And no, it's not that cool or romantic. There is no guarantee that "until you do" will ever pan out. Sorry to shatter the myth, there.

"Whatever the hell you need to do" is how to sustain a career as a director, according to Barry Jenkins. "I worked at Banana Republic for three and a half years while I had a deal at Focus Features and an agent at CAA," the Oscar-winning 'Moonlight' director and co-writer told fellow director Anu Valia ('We Strangers').

@Spanxxxy @mahasr199 Nah. They were still doing plumbing. 30 years of it, getting shit sprayed. They just worked their way up to their own truck, then trucks, so on. Lambos, GT3s, etc. Lesson: find a dirty job, and excel at it.

Yet to meet a rich guy that put their kids into trade school. Which is surprising considering how often they talk about going into the trades.

Mike Rowe: “We’ve been telling kids for 15 years to learn to code.” “Well, AI is coming for the coders.” “It’s not coming for the welders, the plumbers, the steamfitters, the pipefitters, the HVAC, or the electricians.” “In Aspen, I sat and listened to Larry Fink say we need 500,000 electricians in the next couple of years—not hyperbole.” “The BlueForge Alliance, who oversees our maritime industrial base—that’s 15,000 individual companies who are collectively charged with building and delivering nuclear-powered subs to the Navy … calls and says, we’re having a hell of a time finding tradespeople. Can you help?” “I said, I don’t know, man … how many do you need? He says, 140,000.” “These are our submarines. Things go hypersonic, a little sideways with China, Taiwan, our aircraft carriers are no longer the point of the spear. They’re vulnerable.” “Our submarines matter, and these guys have a pinch point because they can’t find welders and electricians to get them built.” “The automotive industry needs 80,000 collision repair and technicians.” “Energy, I don’t even know what the number is, I hear 300,000, I hear 500,000.” “There is a clear and present freakout going on right now. I’ve heard from six governors in the last six months. I’ve heard from the heads of major companies.”

@MorbiusIam2023 @BestMovieMom They wouldn't shoot, finish, distribute and exhibit on film if made today. It would all be digital. Hard to fully calculate the savings from such a disruptive technology, but would likely be pretty close to $500K in today's money.

@BestMovieMom 500K in 1973 is as meager of a budget as 3.6 million dollars would be today.

Coffy (1973) was shot in just 18 days on a meager budget of $500,000. To save money, the crew often used real locations in Los Angeles without shutting down the streets, capturing authentic 1970s urban life.
