On My Own
I watched the movie Eureka 7. The movie is split into 50 20 minute long "episodes". The direction had the camera in many different places that would not be expected. The lighting varied. Sometimes it would be the dark hangar of the Gekko-Go or outside and Bright,Dark, or Dusk as Eureka and Renton pilot the Nirvash. I was not able to tell if the costumes were correct since It was hard to place the movie in any time period. The special effects were used nicely evolve the characters as the story moved forward. The number of sets used was so varied that almost any area imaginable was displayed.

Spaghetti Westerns
The lighting was mostly the same throughout. The sound of the people talking was realistic. I think those costumes are what the people would normally wear. The set was a room with someone talking. The interview style of the movie did not require any special effects.Filler!

Yojimbo
The camera followed Yojimbo around often. The lighting was black and white. The costumes matched the country and time period. The sounds were appropriate. I did not notice any special effects. The sets were mostly outside in open fields or towns.

Billy Jack
The movie did not need any special effects which why they were absent. The lighting generally has the set in a sunlit area. The costumes of the people seemed appropriate for the 1970s time period. The natural passage of time was used to move the story forward. The sets were either in the town or the nearby wilderness. The town seemed to be a large town in a secluded area.

O Brother Where Art Thou
The direction had the story similar to some old greek story. I can't remember which. The costumes match the time period. Sounds seemed believable for their time period. The only special effect I notived was the fires with the barn and the t. The sets were varied with both rural and city sets.

Peach Blossoms
The direction had the dolls in the beginning making a reappearance later. The lighting was bright. The sounds were simple music. The costumes matched the time period and country. The only special effect was the transition with the forest at the end of the scene. The camera usually seemed to be far back.

Gamers in different countries have different interests. Thailand gamers for example have shown that they do not like FPSs(First Person Shooters) because the do not like using controllers to aim. Producers can use this information to limit what games go where and maximize profit.

The controller of a video game console can determine its success or failure. This is because the controller is what the user has to use for hundreds of hours. Nothing can save a console with a horrible controller. This can be seen for example how the wii's sales are double of that of the playstation3's. Without is innovative controller the wii would probably be in last place.

I would like to rip and package all of the movies we have watched onto DVDs so that later I can rewatch them or use it to complete my reviews. I hope that is not illegal. I think interim reports are sent home next week. That means it is time for all of my reviews to come forth and get their D's so that I do not fail. I will probably do my magazine articles first since those can be done in my Spanish class. At least cinematography doesn't cause me to easily fall asleep.

The class is getting better. The Billy Jack movie was intersting except for the fact that the blood does not look relistic. My favorite movie is still Hotel Rawanda. Mondays and Friday should be dedicated to working. I would like it if the screens were not locked whenever we watch a japaneses movies. This often causes problems.
