last night I watched The Fellowship of the Ring, the extended version.. Started with it due to seeing one of the battle scenes from the last movie in another topic here and realised I haven't seen those movies in maybe 10 years, so of I went
Still a good film but only one little tiny thing that bugged me. Upon reading about it on IMDB the film only used 3 instances of CGI and they lasted 3 seconds, something about the safety of the horses. Ok fair enough. But the thing that bugged me was the use or over use of the light reflectors to light up scenes where the natural light is behind the actors. There were plenty of scenes where the artificial light really looked as though it was forced. this might not make sense to you but you may notice it if you viewed the film again.
Interesting, usually when I see a film win loads of rewards I tend to shy away from it. My tastes tend not to go the same way as these voters it seems. I prefer mindless trash that gets scoffed at. In general a film that wins an Oscar usually translates to 'avoid at all costs' for me
That's probably more likely because 75% of awards films are generally quite depressing, heartbreaking etc. My girlfriend is the same.Interesting, usually when I see a film win loads of rewards I tend to shy away from it.
