LP97S posted:Would the ending have been better for you if you stopped after the final jump or before the "angels" made their last appearance? after the final jump probably it all just felt like some big rushed ending with lots of random poo poo happening that didnt make sense to say "technology is bad" and to send crazed religious messages out when the whole series has been pretty ambiguous about it till then like the religious overtones were always there but the explanation for the ending is just dumb literally raging irl at how bad it was

Ridgely_Fan posted:did anyone else like soderberg's solaris? "Solaris" is fantastic. I'm not sure if leaving out the core explanation (the planet is a single living organism that is trying to understand these tiny sentients that are watching it) makes the film better (for being deliberately ambiguous) or worse (for being less coherent). I knew that one of my previous relationships was doomed when I showed my girlfriend "Solaris" and she complained about the ending. She didn't like having to interpret it, she wanted to be told specifically what happened and felt cheated because they didn't.

Mind Spew posted:after the final jump probably I thought that the part with the technology abandoning was dumb but not terrible. But then when it's a 150,000 years later and the last minute implies that Japan will destroy us all with their crappy robots and sexbots were literally the dumbest loving thing ever. Especially Moore's cameo, it was like "Yeah, I know this is poo poo, just let me read my NatGeo". It reminded me of DS9's ending with the Pah-Wraiths, so much so that I was shocked when I found out that Moore didn't write the DS9 finale.

I saw the Soderberg Solaris when it first came out. It's alright, but why remake Solaris when Tarkovsky's film exists and can't really be improved. Could be the first movie to have a spaceship that's a cluttered dump full of drunk people.

I don't really think that the Soderbergh version was meant to be an "improvement". It's a substantially different take on the same core concept and the two films are better looked at independently.

JustFrakkingDoIt posted:Children of Men is fantastic for no reason that I can quite put my finger on. i can't think of a movie that does tension in the "action" scenes as well as children of men (definately my top 5 all time favs) the scene where they're trying to get the car started and the first scene when the are running in the refugee city are amazingly well shot and terrifyingly tense to watch for the first time. the combination of great choreography and first person camera angles achieves this imo
