2D Class Week 13 Film 6 – The Thing
This week we watched The Thing . Due to unfortunate circumstances I was unable to watch the full movie in class, however I've seen the movie numerous times before. 1. Who was the director of the film? What other movies has this director produced? The director was John Carpenter, who made films such as: Escape from L.A., Big Trouble in Little China and Halloween. Interestingly enough, in the movie Halloween there are numerous instances of characters watching the original 1951 The Thing From Another World . 2. A rtistically, what did you like about this film? The practical effects are incredible and the monster designs as well. The dogs are always the most horrific to me, since they're still alive as they're being pulled into this creature. Some of the lighting is very interesting too, with a strong use of orange and blue. The camera is unsteady but it suits this movie well and it's something John Carpenter does often. There are some cheesy parts but it just...

2D Class Week 11 Film 4 – The Fifth Element
This week we watched The Fifth Element . My answers to the questions: 1. Who was the director of this film? What other movies has he produced? The director was Luc Besson, who I've never looked up but somehow this film makes more sense now that I know the director is French. He made Taken ... which, wow, Taken ? I wasn't expecting that. Huh. That's about all I recognize by him, but for a list; Taxi, 3 Days to Kill ... honestly, these are the exact type of films I never watch. 2. Artistically, what did you like about this film? The vibrant colors and fun costume, alien, and machinery designs. There's a lot of unique ideas and creativity in this film that was the collaboration of many minds and it's crazy cool how they all come together to make a cohesive world. The world itself is nonsensical and yet... still makes sense. That's not an easy thing to pull off. 3. What actor played the role of Zorg? Gary Oldman. From the movie Rozencrantz and Guildens...
