Welcome to Gaia! ::

We just rented this movie.
It was beautiful, what did you think of it?

I'll take the rec here then. When I first read up on it I was aghast that it was garnering so many great reviews, it seemed like the usual sentimental nonsense that gets pumped out now and then when people get sick of gratuitous nudity/violence.

I must admit I thought the same when I read up on it, but I was bored one night and figured that the cast (Will Smith, Rosario Dawson and Woody Harrelson) seemed acceptably interesting and the whole "7 pounds" part kinda made me curious. Anyway, of course there are a few moments that force you to go "Oh what a cliché" but those moments are rare and after watching it, I felt I'd been entertained and I'd enjoyed watching the actors interact with each other and such. - Which is why I try not to base my choices in movies too much on reviews.



Never called it a signature. Tho' I have ref. to it as a tag at times.

And I don't recall, it's about 3 years old and the first thing I made using photoshop. Tho' I do recall I spent most of the time figuring out the buttons. And I assure you, the process was a little more complicated than that. - Annoyingly enough I can't find the PSD file for it or I'd gladly have given it to you. Anyway, as I recall there's about 5-7 c4d's with many changes done to them, multiple light sources, many changes done to the render itself and do you see those colorful dots to the right and left of her? That's a custom brush that I made from scratch. Which is nothing, I know. But considering it was my first time fiddling with Photoshop, I'd say it was nicely pulled off.

That said, this is (Of course, it was my first ever.) the worst thing I've made using photoshop. But I only started using this account again a few weeks ago and I'm too much of a lazy ******** to update my account stuff. (Even that rubbish Gaara BG on my profile) Plus I can't find the only other tag I've made that didn't contain nudity. - But mostly it's the lazy ******** part.

Anyway, now that I've so graciously answered your question, please answer mine.

Why do you feel the need to b***h about it?

Personally, I really enjoyed Seven Pounds. I will admit that it had a few mushy love parts, but on a whole, was very nicely done. I especially like the concept and the foreshadowing of the jelly fish in the beginning to his death in the end. It kept me on my toes trying to peice together the clues and had a, despite all odds, happy ending. smile
