If you could jump into and become part of any winter/holiday themed movie, which one would it be?
I went to a midnight screening of SW:ANH last night.
So does it live up to the hype? Was it better than the prequels? Is it a fitting continuation of the original films? Should you go see it? Am I really tired?
Yes. Omg yes. Totally yes. Absolutely yes. Yes.
There's also a good mix of old and new characters - on both sides. There's no filler characters here either. No Jar Jar role. Although BB-8 did concern me when he was first introduced, it could have so easily been a complete disaster there, but luckily it's not. He's not going to take R2s crown, but he's definitely right up there.
The set pieces are stunning. I got lost in the magic of the visuals at many points in the film. From the star destroyer grave through to lush woodland, every shot is just gorgeous. I would have been happy for the film to have just focused on that wrecked star destroyer - I mean wow what an awesome concept to go explore right?
I was also very very excited to see Puzzle Wood being used in one set of sequences - this is an amazing Roman open cast iron ore mine in the Forest of Dean and I've been to walk in it many times. I literally wanted to get up and shout I'VE BEEN THERE, but no one likes a crazy at a film, right?
It's so hard to not give anything away whilst writing a review of this film - SOOOO much I want to discuss... but I don't want to spoil it for you guys. Is it better than Empire? No. Is it better than Jedi? I'd say it's a close run thing. It might just be and boy what an accolade that is.
Go see it. Enjoy it. Love it. Let your inner child embrace it. I did and I'm not afraid to admit it.
May the Force be with you.

I'm surprised to be among the first to comment on this, it's a really awesome piece and it's probably just the case that people are generally very much in awe of it's awesomeness! :) There's a lot that I like about this, the design of the freaky creature (or whatever it is!), the atmosphere, and the simple yet effective casing/shelving around it .. it's really got the feeling of having been there a long, long time.. and also of it seeping/breaking out of it's container... perhaps to quietly infect (maybe even poison?) the world around it.
The composition is great and feels natural, more like a photograph than a painting, like a snap-shot of some weird oddity on a shelf in some forgotten museum of horrors somewhere. The subject makes a heart shape, suggesting a subtext of emotional disconnectedness, or forgotten emotions/relationships.
I also like that I can see the mix of styles here, both yours, Zdzislaw Beksinski's and maybe even a bit of Giger too? It all knits very effectively together, I must say.
All in all there really isn't much I dislike about this piece mate, an Oubliette may be (as Hoggle says in the labyrinth) "a place to put people to forget about them", but this is certainly a painting to remember!
Congrats and thanks for sharing! :)

I wanna make pixelated goodness. I have been doing this for long time, and came up with a cool way technique and thus a bit of misfit concepts.
Also, please give me a name for your character if you have one! I can base it on a real animal, or any mythical/made up creature. I also like basing them on one of the four seasons, so if there's a specific season you want (winter, spring, summer, fall), let me know!

The subject makes a heart shape, suggesting a subtext of emotional disconnectedness, or forgotten emotions/relationships.
I also like that I can see the mix of styles here, both yours, Zdzislaw Beksinski's and maybe even a bit of Giger too? It all knits very effectively together, I must say.
All in all there really isn't much I dislike about this piece mate, an Oubliette may be (as Hoggle says in the labyrinth) "a place to put people to forget about them", but this is certainly a painting to remember!
Congrats and thanks for sharing! :)
I went to a midnight screening of SW:ANH last night.
So does it live up to the hype? Was it better than the prequels? Is it a fitting continuation of the original films? Should you go see it? Am I really tired?
Yes. Omg yes. Totally yes. Absolutely yes. Yes.
There's also a good mix of old and new characters - on both sides. There's no filler characters here either. No Jar Jar role. Although BB-8 did concern me when he was first introduced, it could have so easily been a complete disaster there, but luckily it's not. He's not going to take R2s crown, but he's definitely right up there.
The set pieces are stunning. I got lost in the magic of the visuals at many points in the film. From the star destroyer grave through to lush woodland, every shot is just gorgeous. I would have been happy for the film to have just focused on that wrecked star destroyer - I mean wow what an awesome concept to go explore right?
I was also very very excited to see Puzzle Wood being used in one set of sequences - this is an amazing Roman open cast iron ore mine in the Forest of Dean and I've been to walk in it many times. I literally wanted to get up and shout I'VE BEEN THERE, but no one likes a crazy at a film, right?
It's so hard to not give anything away whilst writing a review of this film - SOOOO much I want to discuss... but I don't want to spoil it for you guys. Is it better than Empire? No. Is it better than Jedi? I'd say it's a close run thing. It might just be and boy what an accolade that is.
Go see it. Enjoy it. Love it. Let your inner child embrace it. I did and I'm not afraid to admit it.
May the Force be with you.

Your group UdonCrew is now live!
You guys know the drill. Three of mine for three of yours, and they've got to be recent (think within a month, or your three most recent images). Here are mine:
