...If you were a kid and dying why wouldn't your last moment be happy? Maybe she saw "the white light at the end of the tunnel" or something?

lol ... I think really really they would go apeshit. Screaming and nashing teeth and nothing happy about it at all fighting to the last moment. But that would have freaked my neighbors out.

I'm glad you like the moment, but I am making these (hopefully) for a wider audience and if it doesn't "make" the movie for me, then i might as well see what a different take or part of that take might do, or playing it without cutting to her there. Who knows, maybe I'll like that 100X's better anyway, or I may choose to keep it as is.

thanks again, man
 
JDS,
Since I'm a little late trying to get comments in, I don't think i can say anything original or helpful here, but congrats on not only a great film, but churning out consistently great films for these contests. I look forward to whatever you come up with next.

Keep in mind, FlintMI, that everyone was pretty much up against the same odds, with the exception of the child actor, and that would only be if their script called for it. From the sounds of it, the folks in LA had a MUCH tougher time getting locations than the folks in NY.

"LA headshot" = when the LAPD cop sees you filming and gives you his picture and agent's card.

"NYC headshot" = when the NYPD cop cracks you over the head with his graphite-titanium nightstick and takes your camera gear while you "find your permit" on the bus to Riker's Island.
 
While I thought the film was technically very good, it didn't do much for me in terms of creativity of vision. The nature of the superhero's powers were awesome, but the other main characters (the mother and the child) felt to me, strikingly cliche'd, to the point of allegory. Although it's possible that it was an allegory, and I'm just an idiot. What did those characters represent?
Also, the nature of the special effects (kind of green and floaty) didn't seem to go with the rest of the visuals.
 
Hey dude, love the beginning, I thought that was a good intro to the movie. The style of cutting works well here but for scenes where its suppose to be touching like the end, I saw a little bit of that style. I don't think it fits there. But other than that... it rocks, we'll see ya again at horrorfest hopefully!
 
Jack, overall I really liked this from top to bottom. Not sure what I could add to the discussion other than to say kudos. Really good job. As for some of the neg comments frankly some people are too sensitive these days. **** happens and sometimes it is used to tell a story in a movie.
:thumbsup:
 
[FONT=&quot]J Dan,

Congratulations! Having seen all the hard work and time (did you ever sleep?) it's great to see it come to such a splendid conclusion. You are one talented MF.

A crazy weekend in the rain and cold were totally worth it. Still wish we had sprayed guts on the wall? Mmmmm guts.

You better win this one beezach.

I think what I'll cook up next is a break :)

Are you serious Jack! No Horrofest entry...? I hope you haven't let this thread put you down... if you really wanna take a break cause ur tired... then understandable.

And also, in my view... the publicity you're getting of this thread is priceless... whether people love, hate or like Bonehand, the big thing is, people are watching and talking about it and that my friend is what all film makers want.

One last thing, about that smile with the little girl, that Pic Briceman put up is not the one I think people are talking about, it's the smile when she spits out the blood.. maybe I'll try and get a Pic up.
 
lol, I'm having a great time are you kidding ...

Horror Fest is a ways a way and I'm intrigued but no commitments yet.

Mostly I meant a break for the next little while here while i recharge my batteries.

Thanks for the replies all.

I'll see if there's any questions or stuff I need to respond to later. (I'm gigging today - as in right now - and tomorrow)

- Jack

Thankyou. I've learned a lot this time, so hopefully I can put that to use. :thumbsup:
 
Jack,
I'm late in getting to the show! I won't rehash the stuff that's been brought up.

I really think you have a definable look to your films. They are genuinely yours. Bonehand is a solid entry in this competition and I know it will do very well. You are one of the most looked up to guys on this board and for good reason. Keep makin films you talented bastid you!
 
Thanks for the vote of confidence and congrats on your film as well.

We need to get several of us together and spend a day in the park figuring out how to use my various stabilizers so next time you or Mark or Timur barrow one you can get more bang of it, and so I can learn how to use them too (which I have no clue about either). Stabilizers are good things to share because they have no electronics or glass :) :thumbsup:

I'm definitely down. And they are really useful, but only if we can operate them! Since all you guys are in Brooklyn, I'm willing to go out that way and grab some Grimaldi's pizza and some ice cream and then we can test them out over by the Brooklyn Bridge. Sound good?

Since you changed your avatar to you holding a shotgun you needed to remind everyone that you are still a harcore trekkie. And a militant one at that!:kali:
