I know! It get the strangest things right - Revere versus Sam Adams, for example - perhaps in order to get away with handwaving everything else.
Did anyone else think it was a bit uncool of Sheriff Reyes to straight-up murder that bank worker while Abbey was trying to talk her down?? I mean, for someone who is supposed to be as straightlaced as she is, it was pretty shocking to see her just walk in and shoot that lady dead.
When an evil coin goes missing, Ichabod and Abbie must find it before it can unleash a wave of repressed hate.
For a show that all but makes up its American history as it goes, I love it that they gave Benedict Arnold a limp, doubtless from the bullet wound in the foot he received while winning the battle of Saratoga. (Here in the "real" world, Arnold has a cool monument at Saratoga: a stone carving of a boot, saying the…
In 2016, Casablanca with Ronald Reagan, on FOX
I think a big part of it is also the way the light reflects off the skin. Like most CGI, there's a real issue there, in that accurately representing the way organic material reflects light seems to be beyond current generation CGI.
Hmm, looks pretty good, there's still some issues with rendering. You can see it as soon as the camera starts to move back from the eye and gets the bridge of the nose in focus - it all looks like it's made out of solid silicone. Real noses are layers of bone, cartilage, blood vessels, skin (of varying thickness),…
Even harder to believe this is a real person.
Great stuff! However, it does suffer from one of the problems I see too often, which is too much symmetry. Human faces aren't remotely symmetrical while most CGI face are, if not perfectly so, more symmetrical than seems natural.
Six months. Tops (or Bottoms, if you prefer).
The cutting-edge question: How long until this level of tech is put to pornographic uses? I'm asking for a friend.
I'm going to say this; Franklin returns as the kindred. Once the flesh grows back of course.
There are no words to explain the level of face-hurting smiles this show brings to my face.
"'The boy you knew as your son died in a pine box 200 years ago!' Then he aged until approximately 65, then stopped aging for the remainder of the time he was buried! (This chronology makes no sense. Je refuse.)"
I'm convinced that each week the writers read these recaps then furiously spit out a script that is intended to subvert, lampshade, or play straight every hanging plot point that's listed in these recaps bullet point for bullet point. They then hastily shoot the episode, add in the special effects and finish the edit…
Nicole Beharie might be the most beautiful actress on TV right now that no one seems to be talking about. I have such a huge crush on her. Swoon...
Points for Franklinstein
You missed the best part... The Horseman of War has a horse with eyes made from flames.
I loved Franklinstein, and how he just ran off at the end and is hanging out somewhere. Sleepy Hollow is the only show on TV where they can say "no one was as obsessed with death as Ben Franklin" and reveal that he created a monster from dead body parts and witch magic before the opening title sequence even rolls.) I…
