OMG No PoSt ToDaY SORRY lolz

On Fridays I have five classes at two different schools, and at one of the schools, today was "observation day". (You remember that shit don't you?) Everything was more busy than usual, and now I'm going to visit my friend Eun-Ok's class and make it fun, because I am a good friend and probably a few other reasons.

The Avengers - Main Character(s)

By -

If I'm going to convince the world that this movie sucks, the first thing I need to do is tackle is the most pervasive argument from its apologists, which is that the movie had an inordinate number of main characters and so even just putting this many characters in a movie is a triumph. On the surface, this seems to make sense. After all, if the audience doesn't have a character they can identify with, it's hard to be invested in the movie. In fact, this is the truth with Avengers , but people tend to compare it to an idea in their head about how bad it could have been (perhaps because this line about "fitting in so many main characters" has been repeated so often.) But, here's the thing, when you make a movie, there are no rules. Yes, you have four characters in this movie who starred in six of their own movies up until this point, that does not mean that they are all protagonists and that they should all get equal screentime. Not true, and not eve...

The Avengers - Consistency

By -

When I discuss my frothing rage for The Avengers with normal people, their first reaction usually has something to do with the fact that I'm a fan of, and read the comics. Most of the time this is a negative reaction, like, "Well, you liked the comics, of course you're going to hate the movie," and exactly once did somebody think that my embarrassing hobby might provide further insight into the movies. Both positions are wrong. So let's talk about consistency. For the purposes of a lot of movies, especially the lower-brow, popular movies like superhero movies, movies based on fantasy or sci-fi books, or movies based on YA series, there are three things that a character needs to be consistent with. 1) Consistent within the movie itself - You might think this one is pretty easy to pull off, and you might also think that when I say "it's pretty easy to pull off" that I'm about to take a jab at Whedon. Ding ding ding. When this is done right...

살다 - 쿠로사와의 영화 2부

요새 쿠로사와의 영화에 대한 글을 쓰 고 있어요 1부 - http://kevinwarzala.blogspot.kr/2014/04/1_28.html 저번에 내가 쿠로사와를 소개했 을때 가장 중요한 것 이 무엇이냐고 물어봤다. "우리 삶에서 제일 중요한 것 은 뭐예요?" 몇 명이 "가족"이라고 대답을 해서 좀 다행이다. 첫번 영화인 "란"의 주제는 주요 하게 가족이다. 1985년에 개봉했던 "란"은 왕이랑 아들 3명 에 대한 이야기를 펼친다. 왕은 강하긴 하지만 늙어 힘이 약해지면서 왕권의 부담을 포기하고 싶어한다. 다만 왕자들과 함께 지내고 싶어한다. 그래서 땅을 3 부분 으로 나누고 그것을 아들 3명에게 나누어 주는 계획을 만든다. 왕자들에게 이 계획을 설명하는 중에 아빠를 많이 사랑하는 막내 아들은 문제를 솔직히 제기한다. 막내 아들의 생각에 의하면 가족의 신뢰가 충분하지 않아서 형들이 서로 싸우고 아버지인 왕을 불신 하게 될 것이다. 막내 아들은 너무 진솔한 이의를 제기한 후 추방된다. 물론, 막내 아들의 예측대로, 형제 2명이 아버지를 외 면하면서 전쟁을 시작하고 서로 를 죽인다. 이 위기 탓에 왕이 미쳐버렸고 보호없이 떠돌아다닌다. 아버지의 고생에 대해서 듣자마자 막내 아들은 바로 아버지를 살리기위해 나선다. 그런데 아버지를 살리려는 중에 화살을 맞고 죽 는 다. 아버지는 막내의 사랑을 그제서야 알게된다.
