... have any of you studied cinematography?
People are saying that AVP-R has no visual style, that it looks cheap, that AVP looked epic etc.
This movie looks a zillion times better than the last installment visually.
Okay, now I'm wondering if
you have studied cinematography, because even an everyman can see this film has no style.
If you think this movie looks good, you probably think Troll 2 is a cinematic milestone.
QuoteAVP looked dull. The angles didn't suck. They passed. But there was no imagination, no flair, and really bad lighting.
Actually, compared to this, AvP had a lot of flair. Slow motion, fast motion, sharp camera angles, professional lighting and set design...
For the life of me, I cannot possibly see how anyone could think this looks better than AvP 1, which took place in a mysterious and well-designed pyramid. Now we've got rubber monsters fighting in Colorado.
Also, the camerawork in the store showdown was TV-quality. Frontal shots of the actor's faces, loose and shaky shots of the Aliens, choppy editing, etc.
