10 Amazing Hidden Details In Movies
"There's a directorial flourish and then there's self-parody — and Abrams promises he's easing up on his signature stylistic tic of shining lights directly into anamorphic lenses to create flares. He could explain it away in the Star Trek films ("the future is so bright!") but admits he has no excuse for Super 8. He recalled how one shot in Star Trek Into Darkness was so overrun by lens flare his wife shouted that she couldn't see Alice Eve. He made an effort to tone it down for The Force Awakens, and when he spotted his lighting crew bringing large spotlights onto the set he would joke "these aren't the flares you're looking f
Between superhero movies, the upcoming revival of the Star Wars franchise and the preponderance of YA science fiction novel adaptations like Divergent and The Maze Runner headed to theaters over the next few years, the sci-fi genre is going to be pretty well served in the immediate future. Not to be left out, the rebooted Star Trek universe is also returning in 2016 with Star Trek 3 , which will be directed by Justin Lin ( Fast & Furious

Before Chris Hemsworth was famous as the Marvel hero Thor, he splashed onto the scene playing Captain Kirk's father George in Star Trek . The 2009 reboot saw George killed in battle aboard the USS Kelvin, but his legacy, and that of the ship, lived on. In the sequel, fans were probably too busy trying to make sense of the bomb plot and blood transfusions to notice that the scene of the disaster was the Kelvin Memorial Archive. Named for Kirk's ship, it means the destruction of the Kelvin set the plots of both films in motion - a subtle nod that only the diehard fans might have cau
Zack Snyder and Warner Bros. wanted to make a clean start with Man of Steel , but that didn't mean the director wanted to ignore the version of the DC hero who came before, specifically, the original films from director Richard Donner. The updated version of the ship that brought Kal-El to Earth played a big part in the story, but when Kal-El had his escape explained by his (digital) father Jor-El, the version of the ship shown is obviously modeled after Donner's version, not Snyde
There's plenty of symbolism in this sci-fi series, but younger fans probably missed one clever reference. When Neo has gone as far down the rabbit hole as possible, and is fleeing from enemy agents, he makes a strange demand of his operator outside of the system: "Mr. Wizard, get me the hell out of here!" The line is lifted from an old cartoon series starring Tooter Turtle, whose adventures in different time periods would always go wrong - only his friend, Mr. Wizard could save the day. Apparently the show also existed in The Matrix 's artificial reality. Either that, or Keanu Reeves felt a kinship with the monotone tur
A good witch or wizard needs a trusty pet, and for Harry Potter, Cheapest Steam Games|Https://Gamedealhq.Com/ Hedwig the Owl went above and beyond the call of duty. The bird's dedication to the boy wizard made her a hit with fans, and broke their hearts when she sacrificed her life to protect Harry in The Deathly Hallows . A righteous death for the boy she loved should have been expected. In the books, Hedwig takes her name from a medieval witch or wizard. But in the real world, Hedwig is the patron saint of orphaned and abandoned children - making her the perfect guardian for the movie's h
Accompanying the news of Star Trek 3 's filming start date is a report from Film Divider that claims to offer new information about the new characters that will be introduced in Lin's film. The plan, Film Divider claims, is to introduce three major new female characters: the captain of a Federation ship, the President of the United Federation of Planets, and Bones' ex-wife. The latter could be Jocelyn Treadway, Pamela Branch, or a new character entir
If the report is accurate, the addition of three new key female characters could do a lot to assuage the criticisms that were levied against Star Trek Into Darkness for having an overwhelmingly male cast - a situation not helped by the awkward fanservice-y misfire of having Carol Marcus strip down to her underwear and just sort of stand there while Captain Kirk and the camera gawped at
While some directors might shy away from fan criticism, J.J. Abrams seems to embrace and accept it. He is fully aware of the fan reaction to Star Trek Into Darkness and his movies overall. He even tries to make up for his misgivings with his next film, but he's not above admitting that he miscalculated what he thinks fans w
"Abrams is aware that "we got in trouble on the second Star Trek film with some of the fans," and admitted. "There were too many nods to The Wrath of Khan. I'll cop to that." (Full disclosure: I, the author, was the gentleman who led the now notorious fan panel at the 2013 Las Vegas convention in which we, the aggrieved dweebs of the Trekkie community, declared that Into Darkness was the worst Star Trek film of all time. Very sorry, J.J.) Whether a proposed third Trek film from the Bad Robot crew will serve as a corrective or not remains to be seen, but he acknowledges that the nerds were indeed hea
