        Digital films. Notice how all his best movies were all during the age of practical effects? When you had to colour a stage purposely on the spot

        Now he just lights a stage in flat colours and color corrects literally everything in post. Every fucking scene is blue or orange. I know Hollywood likes to show medieval shit blue grey and muddy but his was even more obnoxious. He's a director who needs to figure out that his movies look ugly as shit.

          Movies shot on film still had a color timing process which was analog/chemical. It is true that it wasn't as flexible as a process as digital color grading is, but there was definitely still flexibility in the color timing to push the film into different kinds of exposure levels + colors. It wasn't as detailed as digital color grading is, for example you didn't obviously have power windows, really specific HSL adjustments or curves, but there was still bunch of stuff you did to the footage. One of the myths people spout constantly about movies shot on film is that they didn't have any kind of post processing (excluding sound and editing), which is just flat out false.

          With film obviously there were some decisions that were more "locked" in than with digital, but even with digital film stocks you could tinker around with them quite a bit in post. Also different film stocks have different characteristics that you can enhance or negate. How you choose to expose the stocks also plays a part in the look of the film (for example pulling or pushing). Then there are also stuff like bleach bypass which has a big effect on the film as well, if that is what the DOP (and director) choose to do for a film.

        Gladiator sucks shit and I'm tired of pretending otherwise. So many fucking people have unironically quoted "Are you not entertained?" as if it's such a badass line that when I finally watched the movie and saw how mediocre that line was in context I got genuinely angry, like I was the victim of some joke. Phoenix's performance and the scale of some of the sets were the only thing that made it remotely watchable, overall it honest to god felt on par with tbe fucking Scorpion King yet everyone pretends it's one of the best historical movies ever made. Fuck off.

                You keep asserting that. But you are referring to a letter attributed to a dude that allegedly was around, based on a letter written almost 2 decades after Christ's death, cataloged by a scholar over a century after Paul died. I never know why you people have this complex cope, just admit you don't have the evidence you want, it's all faith based anyway. Not like you need it.

    Ridley Scott hasn't made anything of note since American Gangster. The Alien movies have to showcase characters doing stupid things to progress the plot, All The Money In The World is a boring movie held together by great performances, The Last Dual is too fucking long and uses modern views to paint over medieval culture while barely dipping its toes into the court politics it uses as the backbone of the story, and Robin Hood and Exodus Gods and Kings are just awful. Is House of Gucci good? I've been so fucking disappointed by his movies I'd like to see something good as a palate cleanser before going to see Napoleon.

        I had no issues comprehending it, but I had issues comprehending why someone would write characters that land on a planet no one has ever been to without a suit or anything of the sort, why Millburn tries to tame the alien facehugger despite being a biologist who should know better AND after having freaked out at an alien corpse in the previous scene, why Ridley felt it was necessary to even demystify the Xenomorph at all, David killing the Engineers in a flashback scene in the dumbest way despite making them such a strange and ancient threat in a previous movie, ect. They're fucking badly written and it shows.

      He should make films about earlier events, like Akhenaten or Cambyses II and Darius or King Cyrus or even The Iliad and The Odyssey lots of room for interpretation if you go deep into history and myth. Not giving a shit about recent history is slippery slope to propaganda. It’s like using artistic license as a Trojan horse for propaganda .

        i agree with this take.
        i recall going to see "public enemies" as a teen and being really intruiged by the story, going home and immediately learning it was 90% fabricated. rarely do films that are lazy with historical fact that interesting after you read the true stories... why would i care about some guy's fan fiction about a real event/person...
        basically most movies are just play. directors are just playing the way children play, it's fine.
        kubrick would've made a truly accurate movie, now that would've been something to witness, but this is not that era, the geniuses are extinct. enjoy your fast food (at least it really is tasty!)

      Because they are 'Historical' movies which just means instead of having to create new characters and settings ol Ridley just takes actual people from history and then decides what events take place based on what his shit writing dictates for the movie rather than what actually happened. Retards will eat it up regardless since the average American consumer doesn't know what a book is beyond the menu at McDonalds, it worked with Gladiator and is only now losing steam.

    Napoleon spent his days writing and we have thousands of correspondances from his own hand, not even adding his entourage. Probably the best documented historical figure before the invention of the camera.
    We even know obscure shit like the fact his father died of a stomach cancer the February 24th in 1794 because we have the autopsy report.

          And when people think of the Napoleonic Wars they think of Napoleon and sometimes Wellington, both Cochrane and Nelson had little impact on the whole scale of the wars, by either disappearing completely from the main theater of war that were the fields of Europe or die too soon

          Napoleon conquered Italy with a ragtag outnumbered demoralized army through sheer leadership energy and military knowledge. He then capitalized on that success to make himself emperor. It's an amazing story if done right (Ridley won't).
