A bog! I ask for one little prologue and I get a bog…<BR/><BR/>“Perhaps I'm being needlessly sarcastic. It's happened before.”<BR/><BR/>Really (bog)? I (bog) haven’t (bog) noticed (bog) you (bog) being (bog) sarcastic (bog) before (bog, bog, bog).<BR/><BR/>Post-production...Year 2...Guyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11587038564072674765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2777995917408696270.post-35213250771619597572008-04-16T14:45:00.000-04:002008-04-16T14:45:00.000-04:00"The opening scenes are supposed to take place in ..."The opening scenes are supposed to take place in Southern Turkey (for reasons which elude me at the moment)..."<BR/>--I believe that was because we couldn't find any place that looked like Norway, which was what the scene, written as an act of petulance toward the director, originally called for.<BR/><BR/>Also, I'm slightly troubled by this newfound concern for realism. Aren't we just setting up the audience for even bigger disappointment in the next (and every subsequent) scene? They're going to need some kind of preparation for the fake-anthropology scenes, or the shock may kill them. <BR/><BR/>Wouldn't it be better for the audience to realize, from the initial fade-in, that this is the kind of film that has Saguaro in Southern Turkey, and adjust their expectations accordingly?<BR/><BR/>Perhaps I'm being needlessly sarcastic.
