Adam Wallensten Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 I liked the look of "The Squid and the Whale" and many of the daylight scenes in "The Last King of Scotland" looked really cool as well. These were the first S16 films that came to mind...
Sam Wells Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 Pi, Clerks, and Chan Is Missing are all straight 16 FWIW -Sam
Chris Burke Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 Pi, Clerks, and Chan Is Missing are all straight 16 FWIW -Sam Vera Drake Dave Chapelles Block Party Neil Young: Heart of Gold all of the Christopher Guest/Eugene levey movies ie...Waiting for Guffman, A mighty wind, for your consideration Never Dia Alone Primer On Broadway and on and on and on It is a great format. If you are considering it for a shoot, I'd say "do it!" I have used it and if offers me all I need. Chris
John Holland Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels But it wasnt a great ad. for super 16 ,looked awful i thought and a very overated film , a joke really .
Joe Walker Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 But it wasnt a great ad. for super 16 ,looked awful i thought and a very overated film , a joke really . Wow, what did Guy Ritchie do to you?! :)
James Erd Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 I thoroughly enjoyed Lock Stock and Two Smoking Barrels. I liked the story which I felt was in the same vain as The Lady Killers... I'm speaking of the original version of course. As for the films look, I wasn't terribly offended either, but I can tolerate quite a bit if I like the story. Which I did.
Daniel Carruthers Posted March 5, 2007 Posted March 5, 2007 city of god had alot of super16. Texas chainsaw Massacre was 16mm, I think the best 16mmstock in 73 was 50asa 1
Martin Yernazian Posted March 6, 2007 Author Posted March 6, 2007 you guys forgot The BEliver! if anybody seen this movie is really good also in 16 Native of New York This film will leave you speachless, is shot with a 1924 Kodak cam and is great Woodstock a classic shot with an army of npr's
David Bradley Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 bully (2001) Dir: Larry Clark Dop: Steve Gainer. Nothing really pushed the limits cinematographically about this film but the over all visual aesthetic suited the story well.
Joe Smith Posted March 6, 2007 Posted March 6, 2007 i think woodstock was shot with eclair cameras right?
Martin Yernazian Posted March 6, 2007 Author Posted March 6, 2007 Yes, Woodstock was shot with Eclairs NPR"S ------------------------------------------------- I check Imdb for bully and says that it was done on 35mm I wonder where did you hear that it was done on 35? I'm curious Thanks
Patrick Cooper Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 'March of the Penguins' Plus many other fine nature documentaries like 'Dragons of the Galapagos' and 'The Skeleton Coast.' And I'm not even 100% sure if this particular film was shot on 16mm but I assume it was - the Rolling Stones concert film of their US 1981 tour - 'Let's Spend the Night Together.'
Site Sponsor Robert Houllahan Posted March 8, 2007 Site Sponsor Posted March 8, 2007 i think woodstock was shot with eclair cameras right? There were definitely arri M's used as well you can see them in some of the shots with the giant 1200' 16mm mags. I wish I still had mine (I had a 1200' mag too) great camera. -Rob-
Scott Bullock Posted March 8, 2007 Posted March 8, 2007 Rob Zombie's "The Devil's Rejects" was shot on Super 16 and looked wonderful. Ironically, I was watching a DVD tonight called, "AC/DC No Bull -- Plaza De Toros De Las Ventas, Madrid" which is a live AC/DC concert from 1996 that was shot on Super 16. The cover for the DVD even states, "Filmed live on Super 16mm film"! It looks (and sounds) magnificent! 1
Premium Member Adam Thompson Posted March 8, 2007 Premium Member Posted March 8, 2007 What about the Squid and the Whale? Or Hustle and Flow? Neither are favorites of mine but I think are great uses of the medium... and they were shot with mostly 500 stocks. Oh and Factory Girl, Last King of Scotland, Sherry Baby and Half Nelson are recent popular additions to the Super16 family. And I hate to admit it, but I was fooled by Scotland... I thought it was 35 when I was at the theater, having not read any tech stuff beforehand like I usually do. Maybe it was because the the screen wasn't that big... either way, I was shocked to learn that. Though seeing the desert scenes in Babel shocked me more. Who needs 35 or complex HD gear anymore?? :ph34r: 1
