Curt 1 Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Music makes movies Absolutely. Can almost break them too. No need to see orchestra in background all the time. (WTF?!) Link to post Share on other sites
JA2340 16 Posted July 12, 2013 Share Posted July 12, 2013 Music makes movies Absolutely. Can almost break them too. No need to see orchestra in background all the time. (WTF?!) If there's an orchestra playing, there's a need for them to be in context! If the action is taking place on the back of a flatbed truck, on the highway, an orchestra needs to be part of the radio (and shown to be so) rather than just "appearing" out of nowhere! Reference is to a Elvis Presley movie - NFI what the name was, too many years ago (and too many ladies) ago! Link to post Share on other sites

Metabo Oyaji 71 Posted August 8, 2013 Share Posted August 8, 2013 Failure to make me care about the characters: Oblivion. Failure to make me care about the plot: Chernobyl Diaries (How could one possibly lose with Pripyat as a location? Watch this film and see.) Link to post Share on other sites

Chriselle 158 Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 The constant silliness of technology that only exists on TV. Like the detective asking the lab tech to "clean up" that image from the VHS surveillance tape. Push of a button and voila... pixels out of mid air and the bad guys license plate number magically becomes perfectly readable... Link to post Share on other sites
