I feel like this type of scene also hasn't been emulated much, which is weird. Like, yeah, there are plenty of gritty crime thrillers with big shootouts, but it feels like they're usually more precise and tacticool (e.g. Sicario comes to mind and I love Sicario) and focused on the sudden, short outbreak of violence rather than the drawn out, messy, running gunfight of Heat. Not to even mention the sound work.

The movie isnt great per se (and you have to suffer Jeremy Renner) but Ben Afleck's The Town does this fairly well also.

A while ago I had this Michael Mann book (I'm not even sure where it's at now) but I scanned a few pages for TFR once upon a time.

Do you know the name of that book? I fuckin want it. Like right now.

Michael Mann by F.X. Feeney published by Taschen (a high end German art book publisher) It's out of print so the only one on amazon is $112 and theres one on ebay for $64 but this website has a used copy for like $26 shipped from Germany

*edit* theres a new, listed as "Sealed" one for $1699 on ebay :wtc:

Thanks goon. I ordered that one from Germany!

I hope it's not too late or a problem but it's entirely possible that copy is written in German, idk :shrug:

*edit* checked the ISBN, that's the German-language version, oops

Got me thinking, what is the best book/movie combo? In that both are good/great.

I would say the LotR books/movies but probably other better examples that are not as blockbuster-y.

Jurassic Park?

Also if the bad CG was deliberate by David Lynch, to what do they attribute Chrysta Bell's terrible, terrible acting.

I had to double checked the plot to make sure I have watched this movie but have completely forgotten about it. Mel Gibson has done a lot of similar revenge movie hasn't he?

this post caused me to look up his filmography and he has a movie coming out this year called Boss Level

quote:

Boss Level is an upcoming American science fiction action film directed by Joe Carnahan and written by Carnahan and Chris and Eddie Borey, from a story by the Boreys. It stars Frank Grillo as a retired special forces soldier who tries to escape a never-ending time loop that results in his death. Mel Gibson, Naomi Watts and Michelle Yeoh co-star.

This looks like equal parts Edge of Tomorrow, Crank and Scott Pilgrim, not sure how I feel about this, though I'm willing to give Carnahan the benefit of the doubt.

When did the voice over guy thing go away? Like it's such a cultural touchstone that everyone knows about but at some point it just kind of went away.

idk if this got posted

everything Taylor Sheridan has done has been great so i'm cautiously optimistic about this. the whole forest fire thing seems pretty schlocky though.

also whoever made this trailer is an idiot, it basically did a 2 and a half minute synopsis of the entire plot, I dont even need to see the movie now
