Here Comes the Bride

Written by UrbanVox 5 Comments

Today I am doing a Wedding!

And not just any wedding, it will be Kathia’s wedding (the one from the Hen Party I’ve attended to and has so much fun… don’t ask I’ll blog it later… )

It will be the first one I film in a professional capacity that doesn’t involve me sitting in a control room directing a couple of remote controlled cameras.

You can say I am as nervous as the bride…

Why??? Well… That can be a hell of a jump in my carreer… and God know I don;t want to screw it up…

I know I’ve been around cameras and filming crews for my whole life and that is not the first wedding I am filming per se… But still… Photography is so much simpler… and the thing with weddings is… you can’t just say “cut! let’s do this scene again from the top”…

I know I am stressing over nothing and that I am probably just pannicking like I do but hey…

The question is: How come I never have any of this BS when I am recording or photographing in studio??? How come I feel more at ease photographing a semi-naked strange than filming or shooting someone I’ve know for years?!?!?!

Yup… I am that difficult to understand… LOL.

Off to take a shower and wedge myself into a suit… Oh well…

zya!

Dead Space: Downfall Review

Written by UrbanVox 0 Comments

Do you like Horror/mistery games? Are you a sci fi addict? Did you ever play Dead Space? Then you are gonna love this anime as well…

In the game when an immense mining ship, the USG Ishimura, comes into contact with a mysterious alien artifact in a remote star system, its communications with Earth are mysteriously cut off. Engineer Isaac Clarke is sent to repair the Ishimuras communications array, but he arrives to find a living nightmare—the ship is a floating bloodbath, the crew unspeakably mutilated and infected by an ancient alien scourge. Clarkes repair mission becomes one of survival as he fights not just to save himself, but to return the artifact to the planet at any cost.

Well… It wasn’t really my sort of thing… But you can expect LOADS of blood and gore in the Prequel explaning the the happenings of the Game with the same name.

I haven’t actually played the game on the XBox but I did play the promo game in http://www.noknownsurvivors.com a couple of months ago and it actually looked GREAT and that was anough to guarantee my attention to the movie. I kinda wanted to know what happens without having to think myself about all the alternatives… hehehe

A good waste of 72 minutes… :)

Like anime? Well watch it and let me know what you think. The movie is availiable in DVD and Blue Ray.

3 out of 5 stars…

zya!

Knowing

Written by UrbanVox 1 Comment

Here at the UrbanVox HQ we go through extensive amounts of films and TV series per week. Yes, we are addicts and as so we are always looking for the new releases and organizing our evening agendas according to new releases etc etc etc…

So, it was no surprise when I wanted to watch the movie from the first time I saw the trailer! but it kinda kept being pushed to the back of the queue in favour of our favourite TV series.

But then I saw @GeekMama‘s twit asking why Alien Angels need spaceships. That was enough to wake up my curiosity.

So that’s how The Knowing got jumped to the front of the line!

Please not that it has absolutely NOTHING to do with the current series of end of days sort of movies I’ve been watching lately. They were chosen at random and just ended up being one after the other…. heheheheh

So where do we start then… Let’s see… Ah yes… Before anything you have to know that I am a firm believer that we are not alone in this universe and if you stop to think about it every single sacred book we have available is some sort of proof of it.

It kinda makes sense doesn’t it? Imagine how the pre-Columbo civilization of the Americas felt about the wite faces when they first arrived to the new continet: They thought they were gods or even sent by them.

But now I think I’ve blabbed too much… hehehe… if you follow my twits you already know what I think of the movie. And the verdict is that I LOVED it!

It had it’s slow moments and all but I suppose they had to have some introspection in a film that talks about the end of the world. The only thing missing was the cliche of the night-before- we- are- all- gonna- die- sex-scene but we don’t live in a perfect world… LOL

The Alien Agels have that City Of Angels sort of look… on a macabre sort ow way… the whisper people are CREEPY!!

I know Nickolas Cage is not the most loved interpreter in the world but If you haven’t seen it yet you should! It will keep you on your toes for a while. And the end might surpreend… and it will probably NOT be what you expected! I had 5 theories before the end of the movie…

One word… COOL!

OK… Now I am curious…

Do you believe in Armageddon or anything like that? What do you believe on?

Zya!

The end All over again :)

I am still about to figure out Hollywood’s fixation with trying to stop Armageddon! But I gotta give you that much: they sure are trying to find new ways…

This time we’re visiting The Devil’s Tomb!!

This time is up to a group of elite Soldiers of Fortune sent to rescue an archeologist from an excavation… but things are not always what they seem.

I’ve picked the movie to watch after seeing Cuba Gooding Jr and Staphanie Jacobsen on the cast before I could watch the trailer (Was trying to keep myself busy while I waited for AD to arrive from her night out in town… 2am… and she had no idea how to get back home… weeeeeellll).

But believe me, if I had time to watch it I would have not tought twice… and as usual critics are wrong ont their evaluation…
