Batman begins Special Edition
Yesterday the Special Edition with its 2 DVDs arrived and i couldnt wait to watch the making off. First off all: its a very HUGE production! I never saw a movie in wich everything is created in such a detail!
Ok, well you can counter with Lord of the Rings ie. but I think that Batman begins shows us how to make a very cool movie without using CGI to much.
The best example (and my favourite) is the Bat-mobil. Its not just a car with some custom-build-chassie. Its a complete self-production. The way you think of it while you watch the movie is actually really what it can do!
The Jumps, the Speed, how un-destroyable it is ie. Its really impressive and the main reason for me to get this discs!
The other remarkable thing is, how they built the Sets.
The Bat-cave = a huge wood construction wich they flooded to get the look&feel right.
The End Scene = a complete re-builded mini-modell from Gotham. <- + a bit CGI and bang, we have a kick ass end scene.

Donnie Darko
Where i have to start with this mind-fucked-up piece? Maybe with: You have to be a friend of mind using movies cause this one will turn your brain up-side-down (just visit the page: www.donniedarko.com and you get the idea). Its hard to describe the story without spoiling! In simple Terms: You have to observe a Teenage pupil, Donnie Darko, who has strange nights and is some kind of nerd (just like me:)). He is a sleepwalker and has a friend called Frank who wears a bunny-suit. Yes... very cool story:P Frank tells him that the World "dies" in 28 days or something like that. What you never guess: its a movie about time-travel and parallel universes! So its getting very freaky after 30 mins or so. Just watch it! I Dont have time to whrite a long describtion with my english-skills.
