DIGITAL FRONTIERS, EPISODE TWO: 'Star Wars, Episode Two: Attack of the Clones' (2002, Dir: George Lucas

  • Summary

  • Bro we're so back. We've never been more back. Because two white guys got in a room and talked about STAR WARS EPISODE TWO: ATTACK OF THE CLONES, which is, in addition to being one of the most reviled movies (By total weight, not percentage of hatred per person) of all time, the first major motion picture ever shot on digital cameras. We sorta think it's neat?

    Topics include anything but the plot, which, you know, it not important. The cameras they made, the difficult dransition to HDR Sensors, Lucas's monumental individual role in pushing movie technology forward, the way that his decision to use digital on this movie took him a step behind his contemparies and how, in its way, it proposes an alternate path of digital cinema that was not taken.

    Read 'Digital Cinema, a False Revolution," a half precient, half non precient about where digial production would take us right here at JSTOR. Check out a fascinating contempary interview Lucas did with American Cinematographer right here at a 2002 lookin' webpage. Nifty sort-of doc about the making of the movie here.

    Matt reccomends Hundred of Beavers, which you can watch here. Corbin reccomends Paddington in Peru, currently in theaters in glorious 4k, and an episode of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine.

    We forgot to tell you what next week's episode is about: it's 28 Days Later, a movie shot on an honest to god Sony DCR-VX1000. Not really streaming on a service, but you can rent movies, right?
