We are standing right on the edge of movies being set in the 70s becoming intolerable.

Has Chinese cinema used the Romans as a stand in for America/the West much before? I wonder if the Parthians will show up as a people protected from Roman imperialism by Han benevolence or just not show up at all.

It seems that every 5-10 years people forget that first person POV dramatic filmmaking (i.e. non-art film / found footage) doesn't work because audiences either completely tune out or vomit after the first 5 minutes. It's one of the better produced and most watchable POV clips I've seen, but I can't imaging sitting through more than that.

CaptainHollywood posted:I think the reason part of this movie works is that it's not playing off "This is found footage from what happened etc etc." I want it to be good. First person POV dramatic has always had problems keeping an audience's attention for whatever reason. Not sure if it's because there's a lack of empathy for the main character because you can never read emotion in their face, or because it's like you're playing a video game but you have no control so you tune out, or something else. I'm a big Sharlto Copely fan so I hope it does well, but I can't think of any successful films or TV shows that were shot 100% in first person (again, found footage doco-style like Blair Witch and art films like Enter the Void not withstanding) penismightier posted:It's like all the worst parts of all the worst video games.

They were not even trying to not make it look like a video game. They even have a silent protagonist! The part where the british guy tells him to use a grenade could be straight a tutorial in any COD game.

Is James Wan producing this? penismightier posted:It's like all the worst parts of all the worst video games. We need movies made out of the best parts of the best video games. Like a Lord of The Rings movie where the protagonist ranger and his elf ghost partner construct a Mordor orc hierarchy chart to determine who he should kill and who he should mind control and then promote to the top of the leadership ladder so that it can backstab the orc general.
