Equinox (1970)

This film is a prime candidate for a movie that should be remade. The ideas are all good, but the film is betrayed by a poor cast and sloppy writing. Still, it is enjoyable, for the unintentional goofiness and the interesting similarities with The Evil Dead if nothing more.

6/10


You do know the history of that particular film, right? It's literally a amateur film Dennis Muren made that somehow managed to get theatrical distribution. Much like how John Carpenter's Dark Star made the leap from film school project to feature film.


Yep, I know that. JFTR, I don't hold any of that sloppiness or goofiness against it - it could have turned out a lot worse than it did.

Star Wars movie prints WOULD benefit from this...can you hear me Mr. Lucas...
Time

I have a hard time believing the OOT will remain suppressed indefinately. Some time from now, long after Charon ferries Lucas across the River Styx, Lucasfilm will probably restore the theatrical films to the best of their ability and release them. Perhaps they won't be of the greatest quality, but at least they'll be acknowledged. A number of surviving films from the early eras of cinema don't come wrapped in the prettiest of ribbons, but people still watch and enjoy them.

Random Thoughts
Time

Before the beginning there was the Nothing. The Nothing was without form, an empty void. Then the Creator came, and It hovered before the darkness.

And the Creator said "Begin," and the Creation began. It stretched forth Its hand, and order was formed. With it came the heavens, time, and life. The Creator beheld the Creation, and was well pleased.

Then the Creator said "I shall make gods in My image, after My likeness, so that they may rule over the infinite heavens and their worlds and over all the living creatures that dwell within."

So the Creator created gods after Its own image, after Its likeness, in the image of the Creator It created them, good and evil It created them.

The Creator blessed them and said to them, "Do what thou wilt."

Also, I am a virgin. I've never even kissed a girl before. I am not willing to hire a prostitute because from every account I have ever heard, that does not really change anything besides the size of one's wallet.


This almost fits me to a "T". Just change the third sentence to "I am willing to hire a prostitute, but I am never in the right time or place to do so; plus, I wouldn't know how to explain how the money I spent disappeared to my parents without raising a few eyebrows".

Imagine a PT about a the rise to power of the Emperor instead of the fall from grace of an already rather unlikable git who only really becomes interesting and fun in the three films that pre-existed it.


"I killed them. I killed them all. They're dead, every single one of them. And not just the men, but the women and the children, too. They're like animals, and I slaughtered them like animals. I HATE THEM!"

This dialogue, originally written for Anakin, would sound great coming from Sidious.


True ... in the right context, anyway ... not as a cackling she-bitch ...

How to make a Hollywood blockbuster
Time

The main characters should always be played by big name actors, regardless of whether or not they suit the part.

The main characters should never be played by lesser known/unknown actors, even if they suit the part.

Make everything look as bright and vibrant as an airbrushed model in a Photoshopped magazine.

Get a piece of talentless, deformed, worthless shit like Lil Wayne to squat, grunt, and unload the soundtrack from his diseased anus onto the mike.

Hi, there! You probably don't know me, seeing as I'm a native of Earth-235, a universe located sixty-four realities away from yours, but I'm a famous pop musician, born in Austria-Hungary but raised in Kanata. Anyway, I watched the first film in the Star Wars Quadrilogy back in June 1, 1974 on my sixteen birthday, fell in love with the franchise on the spot, and have been a fan ever since. I'm asking Mr. Giorgio Lucius to please, please, remaster and release cleaned-up versions of the theatrical editions on mini-LaserDisc and HD-DVD for my children's, and children's-children's, generation to enjoy it all their splendid grandeur.

"I don't quite understand what the controversy is all about," Kennedy said. "It would be a big controversy if the studio was going in making a bunch of changes to movies and then releasing DVDs because they felt the movie was better or something. But if a director is reissuing a movie and wants to go in and make adjustments, that's entirely up to the vision of the director."
