Deviation Actions
Just recently I walked to the theaters to go see Pacific Rim, at first I wasn't that interested from the trailer and I thought it was going to be some generic Cloverfield movie. Months later before it came out I became a bit more curious into watching it, I've seen some of the TV spots but not a lot of it so I wouldn't be spoiled. In the week before it came out I've heard a lot of positive things about the film and that it was and Old School type of Kaiju, a friend of mine ZarelTheWindDragon recommended the film to me because he knows I'm a fan of the Kaiju films and I can get my fix with this film while waiting for next year's Godzilla film. Later I saw a few Featurettes about the film and I began becoming even more excited about it. The first time I went I liked it a lot, the second time I liked it even more, the third I fell in love with the film and it reminded me why I like watching these types of films it even inspired me to draw Godzilla again kongzilla2010.deviantart.com/a…. After I walked home from the theaters I started to think is Pacific Rim any different than the Transformer films, I mean Pacific Rim had a huge amount of action with little substance the same with the Transformer films. So I tried analyzing both films and came to this answer and the answer is yes they are completely different from each other. 1 the Transformers don't fight monsters just other robots and 2 in Pacific Rim you are actually invested in the characters and their subplots are actually relevant to the film and they are somewhat explained, it's enough to hold the film without having to go too much into it too long like say Ang Lee's Hulk. The Transformer film focus more on the humans like Pacific Rim but their subplots are not that relevant to the story and you don't really care much about it so you really aren't that invested with the characters and some of the characters are just used for the soul purpose as eye candy. 3 the fight scenes in Pacific Rim have clear focus no shaky cam not too much slow mo, you can clearly tell enough of whats going on. The Transformer films rely on too much things happening all at once and there too overdone that you start to lose focus in what your watching, it's fun to watch for a while but for me it doesn't leave you wanting more. So that's all I have to say about it and definitely buying Pacific Rim when it comes out on DVD, also excited for the upcoming Godzilla film.
My opinion on The Nightmare Before Christmas
My opinion on Tim Burton's The Nightmare Before Christmas: The film begins in a middle of a forest and we see 6 trees that have very distanced doors that represent each holiday and lead into different worlds of those particular holidays as told by use through the narrator Patrick Stewart. We then cut to one of the tree doors in the shape of a Jack O Lantern as it opens and immediately it starts off with a musical song. The famous song "This is Halloween" is an introduction into to the most bizarre characters and their personalities as well as the town of Halloween itself and how its operated and your instantly sucked into their world. I think
My thoughts on Snowpiercer
After watching Snowpiercer on Netflix I got so mad that there wasn't a theater near my area that played this film and regretted not watching it sooner, that being said I absolutely loved this film, it's about a post-apocalyptic world where mostly very little sign of life on Earth, and that one of the few survivors are on board a train. As I was watching the film it got me thinking what if there where a post-apocalyptic world, how would it truly effect us as human beings, would we try to become better than what we once where or become a lot more worse, would people resort to taking a life of an innocent to survive, how would religion play a pa
My thoughts on The Babadook
I'm gonna say, I really enjoyed The Babadook, it isn't so much The Babadook that creeped me out but how it effects both Amelia (The Mother) and Samuel (The Son). Somewhere in the middle I began to think that there really wasn't any Babadook and that it was all in there head, from that I assumed that she herself was The Babadook, I don't wanna get too much into it just to avoid spoilers to those who haven't seen it yet but the story mostly deals with themes of grief, having to overcome loss, and depression. I know some might not enjoy it as much but I liked it for what it is, also I might actually make a Babadook drawing inspired from the film
Random Thought of The Day: Godzilla 2014/TF4
You know what I find funny, most of the reviews I've watched have complained that there wasn't enough Godzilla or monster fighting, and then they saw Age of Extinction and were complaining they were bored to death with the action scenes and they a lot of load obnoxious noises, so I guess now we know why Gareth Edwards (Director of Godzilla 2014) cut out those fight scenes because he probably knew the audience would might be kinda bored with them eventually somehow, and it would come off as tedious so he figured he would tease them enough and draw out the excitement for the monster battle in the climax of the film, so if anything this makes me

I too am very adamant about Pacific Rim being a different beast from Transformers. Guillermo del Toro is something of a fanboy, and his passion and respect for anime, manga and Tokusatsu fuels the film and sets it apart from something like a Michael Bay-directed Transformers film. Del Toro is far more imaginative than your average action movie director and together with the creative team for this film has come up with some very arresting visuals and ideas. Sure, it might be hard to tell one kaiju from another and all the battles are rain-soaked and dimly lit, but del Toro has somehow managed to find a sweet point between “outlandish” and “awesome”, crafting many moments which make one want to leap out of the seat on an adrenaline rush. Also Rinko Kikuchi isn’t your typical Hollywood faux-action chick, her Mako Mori a vulnerable but competent character who isn't overly sexualized or objectified, and that helps set this apart from the rest of the “movies made for 12 year-old boys” pack.
