We will remain without knowing what will come out of the draft. David Fincher and entertainer Tim Miller To make a new ‘Heavy Metal’, here is the 1981 episodic movie inspired by the adult comics magazine known as ‘Métal Hurlant’. However, in exchange for this project, which was announced (and financially discredited) in 2008, we received an anthology series in 2019 that was neither visually nor conceptually high. The recently released third volume houses, once again, latest developments in digital animation most released fantasy ideas, terror and most importantly, Science fiction (from hard branch)often with fascinating results.
The collection opens with ‘Three Robots: Escape Strategies’, a continuation of the piece that opened the first volume. patrick osborne It accurately predicts a new post-mortem exploration of the humanity project (which won an Oscar for ‘Feast’): titular androids track down our desperate attempts to survive the apocalypse, from doomsday cults to luxury landings. Also ‘Mini Night of the Dead’, Robert Bisi Y andy lyonDeveloped in what appears to be the world’s most elaborate mini-models, a ‘World War Z’ touches on the idea of ​​our self-destruct facility.
But first, we were able to leave ‘Bad Journey’ arm in arm with Fincher himself in his first short film for the series (and his first animated work). Written by Andrew Kevin Walker (“Seven”) from a story by Neal Asher, this terrifying “Ten little blacks” depicts a giant crustacean flanking the crew of a merchant ship. As expected of its author, it is dark, cruel and finally virtuous. However The best that can be said about this issue of ‘Love, death and robots’ is that Fincher’s short book is not the best.. This distinction corresponds to: ‘The Pulse of the Machine’ is an adaptation of Emily Dean’s 1999 story that won a Hugo for Michael Swanwick. A true honor to the fantasy comics roots of this project in Europe, Dean opts for a handcrafted 3D animation based on impossible landscapes with a charismatic line (look). Mobius. His vision is more and more hallucination, if not hallucination. masterpiece.
Dean isn’t the only director involved: he’s also Jennifer Yuh Nelson (Second and third parts of ‘Kung fu panda’) contributes with the crazy episode ‘Equipo mortal’. ‘GI Joe’ with a mechanized brown bear as the deadly villain. It’s frankly funny, partly because of that crazy hardcore techno music it serves Skrillex. Military action returns with ‘Buried in Vaulted Rooms’. Jerome ChenThis historian brought flashbacks to both ‘Aliens: The Return’ and the most forgotten ‘Runaway: Space Brigade’. And ironic destruction reigns in “Mason’s mice.” Charles StevensWhile his last message is warm, it’s interestingly conciliatory.
In contrast to the fast-paced action of these last three pieces, ‘El enjambre’ and ‘JÃbaro’ suggest visions that are elusive, mysterious and elusive. Firstly, Tim Miller It is part of a story written by Bruce Sterling to develop a disturbing tale of sex, philosophy and, again, human irreligion. Second, the Spanish Alberto Mielgo (Oscar winner for ‘The Windshield Wiper’) reconsiders the myth of the sirens and their magical song in a sensuous and poetic fashion; it’s not far from lethal or sexual, as might be expected of him.
