If you read my review of The Hunger Games, I point out many flaws, including Gary Ross being nearly completely inept when it came to positioning shots and learning to take it easy on the shaky camera. The script was kind of thin and the pacing was quite off – thank goodness they had Jennifer Lawrence in the lead role.
Well, now The Hunger Games: Catching Fire has a trailer out, and may I say that with new director Francis Lawrence in, at least the issue with the camera seems to be fixed. Looking through the video, I see some talented people, like Jennifer Lawrence, of course, along with Donald Sutherland (hopefully a more substantial role) and Philip Seymour Hoffman. This is the second film based off Suzanne Collins’ bestselling series, and looking much more promising as a movie. When you look at the trailer for its predecessor, the near-lethal overdose of handheld quick cuts is terribly obvious. If that happened to capture the mood of that film, Catching Fire will most likely be shot in a steadier rate giving the movie the ability to focus on their strong points.
Hey There. I discovered your blog using msn. That is a really well written article.
I will be sure to bookmark it and come back to read
more of your useful information. Thanks for the post.
I’ll certainly comeback.
Hello, everything is going fine here and ofcourse every one
is sharing information, that’s actually good, keep up writing.
First off I want to say wonderful blog! I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask if you don’t mind.
I was curious to know how you center yourself
and clear your mind prior to writing. I have had a difficult time clearing my thoughts in getting my ideas out.
I do take pleasure in writing however it just seems
like the first 10 to 15 minutes tend to be wasted just trying
to figure out how to begin. Any suggestions or hints?
Cheers!
I also have this problem at times. You just have to channel everything out and give 100% to what you’re doing.
