DUNKIRK || Christopher Nolan returns to the director’s chair, following the Dark Knight trilogy and Interstellar, with the WWII action-drama, Dunkirk. Set during the 26th of May to the 4th June in 1940, this was relatively early in the war. “As part of the Battle of France on the Western Front, the Battle of Dunkirk was the defense and evacuation of British and Allied … Read More New Trailer: Dunkirk – Official Main Trailer
I have to laugh just the slightest bit with “Interstellar” getting nominated for Best Sound Mixing, when, after the first few weeks of the film’s release, one of the biggest stories in the Hollywood news was the complaint from several audiences about the film’s sound and bombastic mix. Later approved by director Christopher Nolan, apparently these audience’s ears were a little too sensitive, but … Read More 2015 Oscars Challenge: [9] Interstellar – Best Sound Mixing
Imagine for a second that you are filming the scene from “Interstellar” where the crew of the Endurance lands on the tidal wave planet. Just to state the completely obvious, the tidal wave planet is not a real place. Therefore, if you are filming this scene, you’re likely in a body of water somewhere, where recording sound will not prove fruitful in terms of … Read More 2015 Oscars Challenge: [9] Interstellar – Best Sound Editing
“INTERSTELLAR” Paul Franklin, Andrew Lockley, Ian Hunter and Scott Fisher Dust clouds and robots, the visual effects team behind “Interstellar” literally created other worlds. And not just one, several. From a giant tidal wave planet to a completely ice covered planet with a sky that mirrors the ground, not only did these worlds captivate on the big screen, they also became some of the … Read More 2015 Oscars Challenge: [9] Interstellar – Best Visual Effects
“S.T.A.Y.” FROM “INTERSTELLAR” Hans Zimmer “Interstellar” is an emotionally gripping score, that not only accents the conflicting moments, like lead Matthew McConaughey’s big decision to leave his children for a trip to another galaxy to save the human race or major secrets revealed over the spaceship tape relay, but also adds to the science fiction element that all space odyssey’s must have. That tinge … Read More 2015 Oscars Challenge: [9] Interstellar – Best Original Score
“INTERSTELLAR” Nathan Crowley (Production Design); Gary Fettis (Set Decoration) Production designers immerse not only the audience but the actors and their characters in the sets that they design. Every object in a frame of a major motion picture is thought out. So when a production designer takes on the task of creating a future world as seen in “Interstellar,” the meaning behind their job … Read More 2015 Oscars Challenge: [9] Interstellar – Best Production Design
With Warner Brothers backing it and the Christopher Nolan factor at play, “Man Of Steel” could make a slightly bigger impact at the Oscars than one would expect. Not to say it will land in any major categories, but there is a possibility it could garner some attention in at least Best Visual Effects, Best Sound Editing, and Best Sound Mixing, but those categories … Read More For Your Consideration 2013: Man Of Steel
MAN OF STEEL BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLJUNE 14, 2013 Coming from someone who could have given a shit less about Superman as a character, “Man Of Steel” is the best re-envisioning of the iconic superhero, for which you could ask. For starters, having Christopher Nolan’s name on the film as writer and producer sells this hard. With “The Dark Knight” trilogy in his pocket, there’s … Read More Quick Review: Man Of Steel (2013)
Considering that the Best Picture rules were changed because of the backlash towards “The Dark Knight” not being recognized at the 2009 Academy Awards, it would be pressing to say that “The Dark Knight Rises” doesn’t at least have a chance of making the final cut. Regardless, the film should at least grab most of the technical nominations like both Sound Editing and Sound … Read More For Your Consideration 2012: The Dark Knight Rises
THE DARK KNIGHT RISES BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLJULY 22, 2012 Expectations and presumptions can kill a film. I went into “The Dark Knight Rises” with neither. Too many people I know walked into the final Christopher Nolan Batman film expecting it to be better than “The Dark Knight.” In my mind, that just wasn’t possible. “The Dark Knight” is a near-perfect film, and Heath Ledger … Read More Movie Review: The Dark Knight Rises (2012)
THE DARK KNIGHT BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLJULY 22, 2012 “This city deserves a better class of criminal. And I’m gonna give it to ‘em.” — The Joker (Heath Ledger), “The Dark Knight” Going on record to say that one actor could make or break an entire film feels like a complex statement to make. I mean, even to say that a particular director has enough … Read More Movie Review: The Dark Knight (2008)
BATMAN BEGINS BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLJULY 18, 2012 “…this is the movie I did not realize I was waiting for, because I didn’t realize that more emphasis on story and character and less emphasis on high-tech action was just what was needed.” –Roger Ebert, Review of “Batman Begins” Christopher Nolan has a vision. A superhero genre grounded in reality—no more wacky villains with the same … Read More Movie Review: Batman Begins (2005)
THE DARK KNIGHT RISES / There is no other film this year that I am more excited for than The Dark Knight Rises, and that is saying a lot. The “epic conclusion” of the Christopher Nolan series promises to be as epic as the previous installments while wrapping up this untouchable story of conflict and heroes. With a cast that could put any film … Read More New Trailer: The Dark Knight Rises – Trailer #3
2011 Oscar Challenge: “Inception” (2010)
>>>>(11 OF 41 FILMS REMAINING)-(3 DAYS TO OSCARS)<<<<
A look my Oscar nominee predictions, compared to the actual nominations announced last Tuesday.
FOLLOWING BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLJULY 26, 2010 Before “Inception,” “The Dark Knight,” “The Prestige,” or even “Memento,” there was “Following.” Christopher Nolan’s illustrious career started from two small films, “Doodlebug” and “Following,” both directed, shot, and edited by Christopher Nolan. To understand the man Nolan is today, you must first understand where he came from. With the hand of a true artist, Nolan creates an … Read More Movie Review: Following (1999)
INCEPTION BY CHRISTOPHER HASKELLJULY 19, 2010 Let me begin with a novel analogy: “Avatar” is to the mass majority of theater-goers, what “Inception” was for me. Though “Avatar” had its pretty colors and “stacked” cast, Inception shows up with originality and heart (both of which are lacking from almost every film created lately). Director Christopher Nolan took tons of heat for not jumping straight … Read More Movie Review: Inception (2010)
