Adobe and MS Paint rock. <3

Once I finish my homework, I want to try making lots of Sweeney Todd things. I've collected enough images for some graphics and refs. for sprites. <3
 
So do I. I love the Tim Burton-Depp collaborations. Edward Scissorhands was one of my favorites, along with the humorously morbid Corpse Bride. I highly doubt I'll be disappointed by Sweeney Todd.

I love my Adobe Photoshop CS2 and ImageReady CS2...
 
Sweeney Todd has gotten great reviews as expected, Depp is certainly perfect for the role. Anyway, how can you possibly go wrong with a Burton thriller starring Helena Bonham Carter, Alan Rickman and Johnny Depp?

Metacritic's page on Sweeney Todd

Really looking forward to see this.

Sweeney Tood. Pffft. Go watch Donnie Brasco, Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Blow, or Once Upon a Time in Mexico.

Personally, I found Johnny Depp to be at his best when not involved with either Tim Burton or Disney.

Filmmaking is an art, and art is a matter of perspective, but really, that just made me crack up. Sorry, no further comment about this. XD
 
Yes, art is indeed a matter of perspective. My perspective just happens to be radically different from yours.

Speaking of collaborations between Johnny Depp and Tim Burton, who here has actually seen Ed Wood?
 
I have. It's hilarious, I love Johnny there. Great, great film over the life of such an unique director.

EDIT: I assume we both are not professionally qualified to discuss that matter... I understand opinions may be different, and apologize if I was rude, but man, you just can't compare any of those films in which Johnny has participated to performances and credits like the very own Ed Wood, Edward Scissorhands, or Ichabod Crane, from films that owe great part of their success, transcendency and quality to Depp himself.

Am I the only one who doesn't think it's even interesting? As for the horror element, not really enthused. *shrug* I really want to see Juno.

That actually looks like a really good movie. Juno, that is. Sweeney Todd also looks good.


The movie I'm most excited for is...CLOVERFIELD.
 
Cloverfield... Read a really great review by Harry from Aint it Cool News. I really trust his opinion, and apparently the movie is "utterly brilliant".

I'm most interested not in the monster itself, but in the perspective of the film. It's apparently the civilian point of view, with footage all collected from Central Park.

And he tells us it is not a freakin' antropomorphic whale nor Godzilla. That's fair enough for me, I wasn't really looking forward to see either.
 
Well, I looked up the whole plot of Juno, and it was painfully predictable, but nonetheless...

They actually have a screenshot showing the monster. And, they showed some art of it somewhere. It's sort of a big dinosaur thing with an pseudo-armadillo shell thing. It's in one of the trailers too.

But, yeah, it looks awesome with the camera from a camcorder view and just the utter destruction. Did you see where the girl bloats up because she's infected?

They really need to make some awesome new zombie movies. T__T
 
Zombie films? 28 Weeks Later was pretty good.

Or look at Robert Rodriguez's Planet Terror. It's GENIUS. Not a great commercial success due to its length, mostly because it was a double feature film: Grindhouse. It also featured Death Proof, great film too... All you expect from the legendary Quentin Tarantino in a grindhouse-styled film.

Yeah, I heard that was a pretty good film.

And, I've seen 28 Days and Weeks Later, Dawn/Shaun of the Dead, and Land of the Dead.

I love the first four, but Land was such a weird movie.

Shaun of the Dead comes on..almost everyday. XD; I sit and watch it every time. ;___;
 
Zombies are a civilization-destroying force only because plot contrivances make them into such a force.

Oddly enough, Shaun of the Dead is perhaps the only film I know of that attempts to depict a zombie outbreak realistically.
 
Yeah! Shawn of the dead is hilarious, scary and great at the same time xD i love it.

There are coming interesting zombie movies on 2008, check it out on youtube the trailers of REC or Dirary of the dead.

Dude, what about Dawn of the Dead? And, how does Shaun do that? XD; It's like..so stupid, but awesome.

Yeah, Diary looks amazing. It's basically Cloverfield, without a monster and with zombies.
 
Yeah, REC is in the same way like cloverfield & diary of the dead, with the hand camera, but is from spain (and it got very good reviews) .
 
it will sound crazy, but i would enjoy it, i love zombies and i have always wanted to shoot a lot of them xD
