Forum Overview :: Peter Molyneux's The Movies :: Wanted (bleh)

[quote name="FABIO"]Context is important, but sometimes when you read over your script and spot lines like "He introduces him to the magical deathnote loom" or "and then the peanut butter rats explode", you should probably go back and make some revisions. Narration so poor and unnecessary you don't even have to be Robert McKee to hate it. We're treated to not one, but <b>two</b> 1 minute long scenes of the main character studying sniper maps, layouts, window angles, and target biographies, yet neither of these ever come to anything. In both cases our hero simply comes crashing through the front window to John Woo his way through sub-Matrix scenes in 2008. They came up short setting up their 3 point lighting system and figured that key light was the least important. In the end, our hero confronts his ex-boss Morgan Freeman to expose him as the villain, informing his former comrades that they've been mislead and they're working for a murderer by showing them "proof" that Morgan has been forging false names from the magical prophet loom's target orders (hidden inside thread weaves!) and had done so to silence two of their own that found out. He's on the verge of convincing them when Freeman counters by saying that all their names had been written by the (magic) loom and that killing the hero was the only way to live. Everyone buys this despite what they <b>just heard 10 seconds ago</b>. Maybe <i>Jump 2: Push</i> will be better and include less rats.[/quote]
