Supercut: An Ode to Movie Mainframes


Edited by Alex Moschina

Critique: Everything Wrong with Hobbit



This is going to start a flamewar. Suggested topics of argument:
  • Which “sins” are due to the source material and which are Peter Jackson’s?
     
  • Are these actually sins or did they just not “get it?”
     
  • Will any of these be corrected or edited out for the eventual 100-disc DVD set complete with replicas of the One Ring, the Black Arrow, and Sting (the blade, not the pop star) which glows blue whenever batteries are present in the hilt?

Parody: Luke’s Change: An Inside Job


"An examination of some questionable events and circumstances leading up to the destruction of the Death Star, through the eyes of an amateur investigative journalist within the Star Wars galaxy. The focus is mainly on the connections between the people who created and operated the Death Star and those responsible for destroying it.

For those who don't care for the obvious, this is a satirical spoof of the 9/11 truther video Loose Change."

Critique: Everything Wrong With Battleship



Now you don’t have to see it, in case you didn’t. I figure it’ll be on the FX channel or maybe SpikeTV for years, though.

Supercut: The Art of Steadicam



The clips here are culled from the list of 50 greatest steadicam shots as chosen by the users at the enthusiast site Steadishots.org
"Invented by Garrett Brown in the early 70's, the steadicam shot -- or 'steadishot' -- has become one of the most dynamic and exciting forms of cinematography and is one of the most engaging visual techniques in a filmmaker's storytelling arsenal.

I was inspired to make this homage to the art of steadicam cinematography when browsing the database of "top" clips over at steadishots.org, which are rated by the community. After locating what sources I could from the top 50 or so, I decided to stick with the order presented on the site (accurate as of March 1, 2013).

While I do hope you enjoy my video, there are many other clips that I was not able to source as well as many great clips that have yet to be rated into the "top" ranks, so please head over to steadishots.org and show your appreciation for the great service they provide."
