Plain Old Tele Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Everybody edits as they film. It's pretty standard these days, although sometimes Post still sometimes takes a long time to finesse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 How are you so sure its going to festivals?I never said I was, but even then he needs to deliver 1st two weeks of November. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 It was not a test screening, do you think a movie like CLoud Atlas gets test screenings ?The movie was done.The Wachoskis and Wikler were counscious what a mindfuck the movie was.Time is irrelevant when making a movie, you have a date, yo get the job done.And post production has come a long way since the digital revolution.Editors can cut on the same as the dalies even if the cameras use film.They were still screening different cuts in August 2012. They were not close to finished in January. And, I'm not saying they can't get it done by November. They could probably cut the film in 2 weeks if pressed for time. I'm just concerned about the quality. I have the same concerns for this and Monuments Men. Though I suppose there's a slightly smaller concern for this one because at least O. Russell shoots fast.

acsc1312 Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 It's not gonna take that much time to edit and post pro this. Didn't he film the fighter and SLP in like 30 days or something? There's not any stunts or cgi to add, so they should be fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's pretty standard these days, although sometimes Post still sometimes takes a long time to finesse.I should've clarified more. To my knowledge QT movies are already quite far along the editing stage by the time filming finishes. I don't believe other directors accomplish as much as QT does before Filming ends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

riczhang Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 He should've done a lot more after with Django.I think Django was a missed opportunity. Harvey was pressing him like crazy for final cut to screen for awards, and QT had I imagine a hard time letting some of the stuff go. There was a crap load of bloat in the movie.

ecstasy Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) Two financial con-artists who are also lovers, join forces with the fbi to take down corrupt politicians. This sounds good. Judging from the wardrobe and hair it looks like a period piece. Late 70s early 80s maybe? Edited March 27, 2013 by ECSTASY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewy Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Yep, late 70s early 80s. It's based on a real scandal, Abscam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackO Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 Not worried about either Monuments Men or Abscam. I don't think Russell is as anal about editing as QT. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Plain Old Tele Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 SLP went through a ton of finessing -- multiple test screenings, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishstick Posted March 27, 2013 Share Posted March 27, 2013 (edited) Amy Adams for Oscar! ADF will have a major meltdown when she gets in and El Senor doesn`t. Just wait. Edited March 27, 2013 by fishnets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JackO Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 Amy Adams for Oscar! ADF will have a major meltdown when she gets in and El Senor doesn`t. Just wait. I agree. She seems to be overdue and with Martinggdale not getting amazing reviews and Roberts moving to supporting, it may just be her time! SLP went through a ton of finessing -- multiple test screenings, etc. Eh, true but that film was a much more difficult sell then this. Tone had to be right to not treat illness as a joke but still be funny. This seems to be much more straightforward period piece in comparison. .

I'm not even gonna try to get my hopes up anymore at Adams. I've resigned myself to relegating her to Susan Lucci or Thelma Ritter territory.

LOL please not Erika Kane territory. What's the deal on Thelma Ritter? I'm classic movie fan and have seen her in a number of films but she seems to play the same character in all of them. The only time I saw her in an expanded role was with a film with Gene Tierney. The name escapes me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riczhang Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I like Ritter, but I was commenting on the fact that Ritter was only ever nominated in supporting, and never won despite 6 nominations. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4815162342 Posted March 28, 2013 Share Posted March 28, 2013 I like Ritter, but I was commenting on the fact that Ritter was only ever nominated in supporting, and never won despite 6 nominations. Ritter's first nomination came at age 49 and her 6th was at age 61. Adams has 4 Oscar noms at the age of 38 already.I'm more worried about her becoming the next Peter O'Toole (who also had 4 Oscar noms and no wins at age 38).
