    Paris? Really?

    I'd expect the capital of the 3rd largest nuclear power would be a prime target in almost any global nuclear war. Pretty dubious about survivors in ad-hoc bunkers.

    Ok, so to stretch an idea from a previous page to the breaking point: this is about a woman trying to escape her situation, yet it is not escapist. This was by no means something that enabled me to escape everyday cares or long term fears and just enjoy the moment. Rather, it made me think a lot, and I did not enjoy the moment. That moment sucked. Sure makes you think.

    UGGGGGH. Hey, filmakers, you know how your audio guy kept trying to tell you that your main character's voice was 'out of phase' and you laughed at him. Yeah, you shouldn't have done that.

    Audio matters people.

    Eventually, one of these stories is bound to end with the person being rescued and living happily ever after.

    maybe something was lost in the translation but if they had spent half the time they spent on sets writting decent dialogue this might not have failed so miserably.

    Well I thought that was rather predictable. Nicely done, but predictable. I do love the quality of films done with the RED cameras though.

    @astrogirl: I agree... the "twist" was very obvious, and the translation wasn't very good; but the look of the film was just fine.

    "Optimus Prime Post-Apocalyptic Bunker Nazi Zombie Vampire Hideout", starring Shia TheBeef.

    Biagio from Joke and Biagio here. Just wanted to compliment you for highlighting Dan Gaud's LEAP trailer. As a working producer, I see tape all day long. This one made me put down my Pepsi Max/Gummi-Worm combo meal and blog about it. Damn proud you picked it up, and really happy for Dan. He's going places.

    Needs a catchy word at the front of the title. Maybe something starting with "Q."

    Kind of Golden Compass-y. Didn't cutting a path between the worlds (with the subtle knife) in those books do something bad? I don't really remember...

    @PVIII: Yes, each window cut with the subtle knife released a spectre, which would then proceed to suck out the soul (specifically the Dust) of any nearby adults, dementor-style (but pre-pubescent were spared).

    (But Pullman came up with them before Rowling did dementors)
