Cloverfield
I watched Cloverfield the other night and I have to admit that I was impressed! I was expecting a somewhat weak, overhyped movie thanking it's success mainly to it's huge ass internet viral campaigns, but I actually had a really good time. Thanks to the shaky camera, great CGI and relatively unknown actors the movie felt really believable. Good times!
I'm thinking about seeing this one. It's been ages since i've been to the movies and the movie itself seems somewhat original. I heard it's like the blair witch project, with the amateur camera and stuff. I peeked a bit on the internet about it and i read that there are monsters and things going on also, which is kinda a turnoff for me, but i shall try to not make a judgment until i've seen the movie
Imagine is Blair Witch Project and Godzilla had a baby. That would be this movie.
On a movie level, it's pretty decent. I felt like it was a bit more documentery than movie, but I got the impression it was supposed to be that way.
My biggest beef was not the camera control, but the fact that the people who made it must have watched Alien at least 5 times and had played Starcraft for at least 10 years.
The best part was my friend and I making as many zergling noises with perfect timing, on top of our Starcraft jokes.
BUT, I so have to say, it was good. I guess it was also realistic to a point... if you had a giant monster attacking New York... EXCEPT FOR THE ONE PART WHERE THE BITCH DOESN'T BLEED TO DEATH AFTER GETTING A HUGE PEICE OF RE-BAR THROUGH THE CHEST AND RUNNING AROUND!
I'd give it a 4/5, I guess. The monster was pretty well done.
Photo-Flash Hybrid
Call me late to the picnic, but I want some crit on this.
This is (hopefully) going to be the menu for AFD6 (if you couldn't tell).
I kinda based my design off of the Advance Wars website, but it's nowhere near as awesome.
But, it is my first time crossing PS and Flash, and I want to know what people who know what the fuck Flash is think about it.
