Re: (313) Re: The Island
Hey .. leave the LOTR out of this, I have to put up with people driving past my house in a 4WD .. ' with One tour to rule them all written on the side .. Its wrong, and I have written to Peter telling him to put a stop to all of this nonsense, however he is too busy playing with cannons, and his collection of WWI guns rebuilt by my friend Hamish. .. And until you get flying cars in Detroit, I don't have hairy feet. .simon Cyclone Wehner wrote: They said on the DVD (I think) that they had eliminated the markers to make it look like any city but it's very clearly Sydney, I agree! I just came back from NZ and was amazed at how they're using the filming of Lord Of The Rings as a tourist attraction. Then I went to a market in South Auckland and they were selling T-shirts Lord Of The Hood: Return Of The Kingpin which cracked me up. Geez, whoever was supposed to eliminate Sydney from the Matrix should have gotten fired. You could pick Sydney in just about every scene involving them being inside the Matrix.
Re: (313) The Island
I was sceptical . but really enjoyed the film. Might have to revisit it, now that I know it was filmed in Detroit. I thought it was based very closely on George Lucas first film THX-1138 .. with some modern evolution of the concept. But yea, totally surprised by the film, after expecting it to be another sci-fi wet biscuit .. all flash and no pants. Compared to alot of recent sci-fi attempts I felt the island was quite strong, telling a decent story in a managable fashion. I think it could stand the test of several viewings. .simon theREALmxyzptlk wrote: Cyclone Wehner wrote: Has anyone seen this sci-fi movie? I know it was shot in Detroit and from the promo clips I've seen Detroit features quite prominently (albeit no Belle Isle)? Is it any good? ;) My wife and I went because there wasn't much out and we wanted to see a movie she hadn't seen - I rarely get to go to movies, so what the hey. The acting was decent (Obi Wan, Boromir and Steve Buscemi!), and it had an interesting premise. Can't recall, but I think it's a Michael Bay film. Lots of action sequences. What I found fun was the way the action sequences were shot (nice cinematography). The best way I can describe it is that instead of focusing the flight of the cars in the air in the obligatory 'cars flying through the air' scenes - which are ubiquitous in action films these days - there was a lot of up-in-it focus on the crash down in that sort of you are there in the middle of it crazed confusion/movement which reminded me of Ridley Scott's battle scenes in Gladiator. The problem in most films of this ilk is that it's easy to tell who the expendables are pretty quickly and also how things are going to turn out. I wouldn't beat a path to the theater for it, but I wasn't angry I'd seen it or anything. I'd say it will fare better on the big screen than it does as a rental. It all depends on if you like futuristic action films, I guess. Not a bad ride, all said.
