  1. why would this be? a) they automatically assumed you're coming. b) they're having a small family-only wedding. c) they forgot. d) they don't like you. is that supposed to make me feel better? a) no they didn't... b) no they didn't... c) probably, still, maybe not so best friends after all... d) well they sure know how to trick me... it was meant as an easy process of elimination... they forgot. probably have a lot to organize. as a best friend it's easy for you to laugh about it, forgive them and forget it. no? you're definitely not seeing the big picture from where you stand... it's ok... thanks for the comforting words!

  3. yes, really nice, just wished there were more greens and blues, maybe contrast it a bit more?
  4. thanks dude! you kind of can play this game with them... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Necker_cube
  5. my best friends are all getting married and no one invites me, wtf dudes...
  6. yeahh that's what thought after rewatching it a few times, lol, it doesn't gets boring!
  7. i liked carnage quite a bit, but i also love the office series so... just watched life of pi, really don't understand how this gets best cinematography...
  8. dude, no one controls his or hers own happiness... try making other people happy, that would do... who said we're supposed to be happy, we're cursed with the gift of rationality, which makes it almost impossible to be happy... just look at said happy people around you, don't you feel their a little bit out of place, blind and detached??? maybe looking at things like i do, like a douche, thinking that everything around me is crazy and i'm right, maybe that helps... you seem like a very intelligent guy and maybe you're just surrounded by retards... keep up dude
  9. i'm not sure how i feel about it. it's very intense and performance driven but it lost me about half way through the movie and never recovered. i can maybe recommend watching it just to see joaquin phoenix humping a naked woman made of sand and philip seymour hoffman getting jerked off by amy adams while she gives him a pep talk in the mirror. dude, spoilers!!!
  10. yeh that's crazy they'd even claim that damn! you can test this easy with anything that has an optical lens: go close to an object and zoom all the way out making sure the object is in frame, go further away and zoom all the way in with object as well in frame. and that's essentially what the vertigo effect is, most noticeable when close to the object the perspective distorts. lumpen: same terms are used in photo/video :) also worth noting is that because of the difference in distances you're eyes are moved from the screen the fov on pc games is larger than for console games..
  11. thanks dudes, i'm sorry if i sound like an asshole... but damn, these so called photographers are way more assholes than me... how can someone claim that he/she is a photographer and think both functions are the same i don't even....
  12. don't get me wrong but sometimes it's frustrating asking you guys anything... shitt attack already explained to me what's it called and how does it work... i just need someone to confirm that: ZOOM IN IS NOT THE SAME AS PUSHING A CAMERA CLOSE TO AN OBJECT... the same way that a: ZOOM OUT IS NOT THE SAME AS PULLING A CAMERA AWAY FROM AN OBJECT... i have this issue cause i asked some photographers and they said that they're the same... and they are wrong, right??? gonna repeat myself, if the processes were the same they would cancel each other and the image would remain the same... zoom in+pushing a camera away from an object at the same time, would lead to a static image... thanks
  13. yes, exactly, why do most people and media keep telling it was Hitchcock who invented it if it was in fact his camera operator? so, this is a whole new world, in my head a zoom in was the same as pushing the camera close to the object and vice versa, but i was wrong! right? cause if it were in fact the same, both movements would cancel each other out leaving us with the same image... right?
  14. what's this technique called and what does it consist in, mathematically it doesn't make any sense, if you close up while zooming out or vice versa it wouldn't make it look like this looks like... fantastich movie, almost didn't get what was happening cause was totally hypnotized by camera work... i wonder, Fassbinder wasn't the camera operator, how can this kind of subjective aspects be transferred to the mind of the cameraman???
  15. i think that movies like hackers and eXistenZ shouldn't be in the same sentence... hackers - well, from what i remember, it was just like what modern movies go for, trends, and so we had rasta people, spray neon hairs, junkies, etc... pretty cheap... eXistenZ- damn son that's an entirely new world only possible in a mind like Chronenberg's one... both are silly and full of technical flaws i give you that...
