I was uneasy about the cinematography while the trailers for TFA were coming out (particularly that whip-zoom on the Falcon entering the Star Destroyer wreck), but I’ve grown used to it and it doesn’t bother me at all any more. It’s certainly better than that god awful slow zoom thing that’s going on perpetually in the PT.
Yeah, I hate the whip-zoom. But they pioneered that for Star Wars in the PT.
Technically there’s at least one of those in Empire.
And I think the one TFA snap-zoom actually works fairly well (as in there’s a point to it).
Is there? I don’t remember it…
The TFA one is technically correct, I’ll give you that, but I still don’t like the technique.
