TOTAL RECALL shoots EPIC

[KETCH ROSSi]

This is a sequel that I'm really looking forward to, even so usually I really dislike sequels with completely different caracthers, but it has been a while since Arnold's Total Recall, so its cool, and this looks way COOLER, technology of course does help... ;)

I thought this was a remake? Not a sequel.

wrath of the titans was shot 35mm and RED EPIC side by side.

Didn't know that. I thought it went all 35mm after they decided not to shoot it in real S3D and instead do post-conversion.

This is great news. Going to be so much better than the first film!

Another congrats RED team!

I hardly believe that. no one can beat paul verhoeven's 90s trash! it will probably look much better, though.

Just watched the trailer and it looks great

Shooting has just commenced at Shepperton on Warner Bros sequel to Clash of the Titans, with 4K involved despite the majority of the film reverting to 2D 35 mm lensed by Ben Davis.

Natalie Theobald is running the DIT and on set grading aspects of two RED Epics attached to main unit, the first to be used in anger in the UK. "Natalie’s contribution is invaluable. She’s an absolute godsend", says 2nd Unit Production Manager Russell Lodge overseeing the digital side of the production.

That's where pink slime comes from... ;)


Anyway. As great as the new Total Recall looks in a visual sense, my 'turkey-meter' is peaking at a 9.5 when I watch the trailer.... I was hoping it would be more true to PKD's novel, but this one seems much further removed. No Mars? Meh... Looks like it suffers from VFX-overload-itis. Also known as the Star Wars Prequel Syndrome. That's where you take a crap story and just put as much shit as you possibly can into every shot so it seems like something is actually happening.

I'll go see it. I hope I'm wrong, but I'm thinking that Verhoven's '90s cheese-fest is the better movie. :/

Douglas Quail never made it to Mars in the original short story. It was Quail's desire to go to Mars without being able to afford it that made him seek out Rekal in the first place - but he never actually left Earth, unlike the Verhoeven film which didn't really stick to Dick's story much. And if we're going to talk about VFX overload - that film was singled out at the Oscars, no nomination, just a special achievement Oscar for VFX.

I'm reserving judgment of this one until I see it. I have my reservations, but we'll see.
