      I think Villeneuve did a great job with 2049. It's impossible to equal the original story and the impact of the movie at the time, but it was a worthy sequel, which is a huge achievement already, comparing it to basically all late sequels to older classics. So if anyone could, I'd say it's him. But honestly, I hope he scales down for his next movie, make something completely different and more intimate.

There is a large convenience store which contains a display case filled with memorabilia from the film. I asked the lady behind the counter "how much for the Close Encounters lunch box and thermos?" She indicated that the materials belonged to the owner who is a long-time fan of the picture. Then she told me that Close Encounters is shown in the campground every evening an hour after sunset. I would have stayed and camped -- plus enjoyed the film -- however, I had appointments back in Washington State. I hope you take the opportunity for a road-trip to Devils Tower. Cheers.

    • @MrCyclejay1967
      @MrCyclejay1967 Рік тому +2

      You are right about J Allen Hynek. He was a consultant. It was government involvement. That led to the movie being made the way it was. Including some of the UFO flying around scenes , one of them was based on the levelland Texas UFO incident in 1957. As well as the physical and facial look of the short aliens that walked off the ship in the scene. And the 12 astronauts in red flight suits that were to board the UFO. Really did happen in real life. There was a UFO landing at the Nevada test site. April 1965. They picked up 12 of our astronauts. 10 men and two women. Their real life mission was to go to the planet that UFO in the movie came from. The name of the mission was Project serpo. As an astronaut exchange program with the race of humanoids that crashed outside of Roswell New Mexico in July of 1947. Known as the Ebens. They were supposed to be there for 10 years. But because the way they measure time is different. They were there for 13 years. In exchange for our astronauts. A few of the Ebens stayed behind on Earth 🌎. When our astronauts came back 13 years later. Only eight of them came back. Because one of our astronauts died on the way there. One of our astronauts died when they got there. And two of our astronauts liked the planet the people in the culture so much they stayed behind instead of coming home. And they never came back. The name of the planet is Serpo. In The Zeta reticuli solar and 39.17 light years from Earth 🌎. God bless them all. Amen. That landing scene, in Close encounters is based on that real-life landing and that exchange of astronauts. Amen.

      He's brilliant, but some say he's derivative based on what's come before, whether Holst's _The Planets_ or Aaron Copland's works. He seems like he plays inside the box of the London Symphony Orchestra. Nothing strikes me as avant-garde like using unusual instruments as Ennio Morricone did in the Clint Eastwood movies. Some rock and rollers want to do a song or two alongside an orchestra (however impractical for live performances), like Richard Dreyfuss's titular character did in _Mr. Holland's Opus._ The Wonder Woman theme was played on an electric cello, and Trans-Siberian Orchestra is popular but I don't see John Williams doing something like that. The Cantina Theme from _Star Wars_ is the only thing I noticed that was "different." He says he wants to do a James Bond theme: electric guitar plus orchestra plus female vocals. Will they ever let him?

      I don't think Spielberg considers that "the director's cut;" it may be the "extended version for TV." He got the money to film some more investigation scenes like them finding a ship in the Gobi Desert as long as he filmed inside the space ship. The third version which may be "the director's cut" takes the latter out but keeps some of the extra scenes he filmed for TV. I was hurt that it wasn't on the VHS, and was one of the last VHS tapes I ever bought.

      Steven Spielberg actually said in an interview that he wrote Close Encounters back before he met his wife or had his children, and if he were to write it today he would never have had Roy fly off with the aliens, because now that he was a married man and a father he understood the love a dad has for his kids. Back then he didn't "get it."

Fortunately I had read the book prior to watching the film and it helped me to make sense of the various random scenarios that all merge into one story. In the later Special Edition version of the film, after Roy enters the spaceship, he is showered by lights & emerges physically transformed ( well that's how ive always interpreted it) and it is the transfigured Roy that afterwards emerges and presents himself to the scientists & communicates with the hand gestures.
    I've watched the movie many times since and still enjoy it as much as the first. Storyline and special effects were light years ahead of its time.

    Hi Voyage! I tried to find a name for whoever is putting out these clips, but couldn't find any, so "Voyage" it is. What a find your channel is. I'm always telling friends about movies I've wanted them to see. Generally, even with bona-fide "Movie Clips" sites and such, the quality is OK or worse, they're short, and then there's the little annoying ad at the end with thumbnails. Now I haven't watched this yet, but I saw a couple seconds of another one before coming here, then scanned through the uploads. Wonderful quality and each clip has some length to it. I was thinking about the great Greg Jein's model of the mothership, which I always like to point out to people (reactors who say, "...the effects don't look bad for the time...," which is a euphemism for "...gee, looks pretty good, and they hadn't even invented the wheel yet back then..." or somesuch). Oh, I'm not dissing CGI, but bad CGI is the worst. I love "Passengers," but I also love the opening to "Star Wars," which is what it was called when I saw it as a kid. The huge ship that seems to go on forever, the one chasing Leia's little ship, doesn't fail to awe.
    Thing is, I can't wait to go through a lot of these because I've been wanting people to see "Passengers" and I love clips with the mothership in CE3K. I don't know who's doing these, but even the thumbnails are beautiful. I'm a graphic artist, and I'm really good at what I do. Won national awards and sell products online, but still not rich. :) Point is, the way you put "Voyage" at the upper-left of the thumbnail, then the movie title at the lower-left, with a nice contrasting drop shadow so it's readable. It's SO easy to read, and 99% of the content creators don't do this. Just wanted to drop a line to whoever is putting this stuff up because it's obvious a lot of care goes into putting out this channel, and it's simply beautiful the way it's presented.

      relationship was a lot more then casual. Soulmates you could
      say, simply because they were drawn together by this encounter.
      I liked how he just leaned into her, and she sensed that, and
      instantly responded. He would have had one of those Bridges Of
      Madison County decisions if he was to leave his wife and kids.
      I think Neary would not have done so, simply because he loved
      his wife and children too much to leave them. His character was
      one in a million at that.
