Now, J and I are probably amongst the last to see this film...it was definitely not worth the wait. We almost went to some cinema in Hackney (East London is generally shit and full of hipsters and I hate it, I don't care what anyone says)...I'm glad I was too lazy to bother.
Our thoughts, as always*:
J:
http://mcbeardo.com/2009/07/guest-review-until-the-light-takes-us-2009/"Faust chose to have his voice be computer-altered and his face blacked out in interviews, not because he's on the run or anything, but because he claims to regret committing the murder, and felt that talking about it with his face and voice visible would legitimize his actions too much"
M: thats the biggest load of horse shit i've ever heard
J: see, he's a pussy, like the rest of
emperor :)
UTLTU was the biggest waste of time ever - the only good things in it were hellhammer saying "fucking faggot", demonaz looking like an extra from the matrix, and
varg :D
they could have least got a drunken necrobutcher on it :D
M: varg was pretty funny throughout, he came off really well so i expect it has some of his support. the rest - well i've seen better murder/arson footage from the news reports and docs already on youtube....it was nice to see what some places looked like in norway but i could have easily found that out a million other ways... that movie was LAME.
J:
> varg was pretty funny throughoutfound Dead dead in bed XD
> it was nice to see what some places looked like in norwayeh, like what? you only saw
helvete as it is now, which is the one place i cared about seeing, and the basement too, but nothing was unique in it :/
basically the whole movie seemed like a big plug for that visual artist and fenriz's lame love for modern art.
cack movie, but at least it doesn't make you look like a chump if you like BM :)
M: >found Dead dead in bed XD
yep :D and the funny "no" he did :))
yeah that's what i mean, the brief footage of helvete then and now, but that was all of 30 seconds of film. which, like i said, we could technically just go and see for ourselves.
>basically the whole movie seemed like a big plug for that visual artist and fenriz's lame love for modern art.
THAT.
>at least it doesn;t make you look like a chump if you like BM :)
i dunno, it makes us look like we go to those shitty art shows!!! D:
J: yeah, i'd actually rather people think i hang around woods and live in a village where girls ride horses....
> yep :D and the funny "no" he did :))
i like mine criiispy XD
M: >yeah, i'd actually rather people think i hang aropund woods an live in a village where girls ride horses....
:D :D :D
varg was the best thing about that film. they could have not bothered and just run an interview with him, it would have been cheaper and probably more entertaining (although i realise that they would't have been able to make their name as "filmmakers") damn audrey and aaron, whoever they are. your film sucked!!!!
For me, Until the Light Takes Us was boring and pointless and pretentious and completely unecessary. Maybe if you're some lame art fag that doesn't give a shit about any of the bands, you might like it. I could go on, but quite frankly, I've wasted enough of my time on this already. I haven't really got any good opinions about this film, so I won't say any more.
*Faust** has his face blacked out and his voice altered so you can't recognise him. We thought this was stupid, seeing as no-one else interviewed was concerned and most people watching know what he looks like anyway, as an adolescent, at least.
** In Latin, "fausta" or "faustus" could mean sort of lucky, or prosperous.
