I believe they live to be a little older than us as well. not sure about differences in organs etc but i’m sure there are some.

They didnt miss the relationship parts for sure. Typical but the male writers kinda missed the mark with this and the death of jadzia

    Abominable acting destroys the integrity of Star Trek. There are two characters who's appalling acting is hard to watch and embarrassinly cringing. They are the "Wooden" Avery Brooks, who plays Commander Sisko and worst of all Kira Nerys, played by Nana Visitor. How on earth that woman ever made it through acting school is beyond belief. Nana Visitor has got to be the epitome of atrocious acting. She is absolutely awful and unbearable to tolerate.

      I'd like a little more explanation if you could (not being sarcastic, I genuinely mean it). What specifically makes their performances so abominable? I'm genuinely curious because these two actors don't often get that sort of title from fans. Usually poor acting goes to actors like Marina Sirtis, Gates McFadden, Robert Beltram, or heck even William Shatner or Leonard Nimoy himself (which I know is like sacrilege). To an extent I can even agree with fans about those previously mentioned, but even so I don't believe their acting in anyway destroys the integrity of Star Trek. The same of course goes for the two you've mentioned here, I believe that yes Avery Brooks can be wooden, but when he gets serious and emotional he really hits home, and while during my first watch through Kira was not my personal favorite character I did have a great admiration for Nana Visitors acting. Integrity in the Star Trek universe truly comes down to the writing and the continuity, that's what matters above all else to me, a Trek show with good actors but bad writing and continuity is what ruins the integrity in my book. But hey that's my opinion, and there's your opinion, were entitled to each respectively.

    • @vaskylark

      Petty, ridiculous and just flat out WRONG. Avery Brooks was wonderful! In fact my husband just called me two hours ago from work to tell me he watched a DS9 episode last night and Brooks was brilliant and nobody else could have played Sisko. I agreed with him. Nana Visitor has tremendous acting chops. If anyone was bad on the show it was Dax in the first couple seasons but Terry Farrel grew iinto the role and became great in later seasons. Sometimes Bashir character was bad but mostly when he was putting on over the top voices like in the mirror universe episodes or playing an old man etc...Otherwise he was good. His episodes with Sloan were some of my fave all time Star Trek episodes. You're just a hater and you sound kind of jealous or something. Everyone loves Avery Brooks as Sisko! He was awesome. That just astounds me. You clearly have no taste or ability to judge good/bad acting.

    The Count of Monte Cristo is not an invention. The man in flesh and blood who inspired Alexandre Dumas for the figure of Edmond Dantès was his father, Thomas Alexandre Davy de la Pailleterie known as "General Dumas", who in 1799 was imprisoned in the Aragonese Castle of Taranto, which in the famous novel became the Castel d'If. Precisely in the Aragonese Castle of Taranto on 10 September 2020 an exhibition curated by Tonio Attino was inaugurated with illustrations by Nico Pillinini, a narrative path that describes the Taranto imprisonment of the Napoleonic officer, transformed into a literary hero by his son. The exhibition is always open: we are waiting for you !!

    Делясь своим мнением об американском варианте «Графа Монте Кристо», я тоже постараюсь не касаться литературного первоисточника, но сделать это будет сложнее, т.к. книга Дюма является моим любимым литературным произведением, не раз перечитанным, и поэтому хочется, чтобы хотя бы одна из экранизаций получилась достойной. Сразу скажу, что американский вариант с Кэвизелом мне не понравился, историю графа Монте Кристо очень трудно перенести на экран. Фильм 2002 г. слишком американский, это чувствуется в каждом кадре, каждом эпизоде, в каждом герое, в каждой ноте. Сюжет до безобразия упрощён, если бы просто изменили (в духе голливудских экранизаций), я бы понял, но тут форменное издевательство над первоисточником... Однако обо всём по порядку. Начало по-голливудски красочное и трагичное, фильм начинается с высадки Эдмона Дантеса и (первый сюрприз) Фернана Мондего на острове Эльба, и (второй сюрприз) довольно-таки продолжительное экранное время, полученное Наполеоном Бонапартом (возможно, авторы фильма надеялись, что американский зритель узнает хотя бы одного из героев фильма). Сразу же (третий сюрприз) перестрелка в начале фильма, что для голливудских фильмов типично. Но всё-таки первая неожиданность меня удивила сильнее, чем всё остальное вместе взятое (даже употребление в некоторых эпизодах слова «сэр» вместо «месье»). Авторы американской версии фильма решили построить главное противостояние между Монте Кристо и де Морсером, с начала фильма показав их... друзьями детства. Ладно, чёрт с этим всем, уже после такого начала фильма решил, что не буду проводить параллели с книгой, а просто буду наслаждаться одной из самых интересных историй мести, которая, как надеялся, хоть немного оправдает надежды. Не тут-то было. Прекрасный актёрский состав стал заложником сильно упрощённого сценария и неловкого режиссёра, что не позволило показать им ничего не то чтобы сверхъестественного, а даже своего полузвёздного уровня. Кэвизел не тянет на графа Монте Кристо, он даже не тянет на Эдмона Дантеса, пусть в «Страстях Христовых» выглядел неплохо, но здесь он явно не попал в роль, не похож ни на моряка, ни на французского аристократа. По воле сценария у Гая Пирса была возможность изобразить из себя злодея, гадкого и бесчестного, чем он почти воспользовался, но казалось, что он не играл, а просто говорил несложный заученный текст, не пытаясь даже попотеть. Как сюда занесло Харриса, совсем непонятно. Другим актёрам и персонажам авторы фильма не предоставили времени раскрыться даже наполовину, чем те, к сожалению, и воспользовались. Возвращаясь к сюжету, признаюсь, что мне было больно смотреть на такие безвкусные партии мести, преподнесенные графом Монте Кристо своим врагам. Если в экранизации 1953 г. с Жаном Марэ мести было уделено самое важное место в картине, то здесь же все изощренные планы мести Монте Кристо вмещаются в 10 минут, притом не представляя из себя ничего интересного, являясь бесформенным клипом. Уж слишком много времени в фильме уделено началу истории, когда в истории графа Монте Кристо весь перец в конце. С одной стороны, когда смотришь экранизацию любого фильма и видишь, что режиссёр взял из оригинала только название и главных героев, радуешься, что увидишь некие неожиданные режиссёрские ходы и новый вариант развития сюжета, с другой - больно переживаешь, когда твои ожидания не сбылись, а от твоих ощущений от книги ничего не остается, потому что экранизация бездарна. В случае с американским «Графом Монте Кристо» однозначно случилось второе: бездарная экранизация и растоптанные надежды. Находясь в поисках чего-нибудь интересного в этом фильме, захожу в тупик, такое впечатление, что никто из авторов фильма не думал о зрителях, снимая фильм неровно, где лучший эпизод относится к началу фильма и тоже не выдерживает никакой критики. Дальше, должно быть, поменяли режиссёра, наняв такого, что уступает первому во всем. Если в начале ещё теплится надежда на классный финал, то к середине фильма не остается никаких надежд, уже ясно, что всё произойдёт по-голливудски и решится на последних минутах. И финал, к слову, голливудский, очень предсказуемый и малоинтересный. Слишком затянув с рассказом о начале пути Дантеса, задержавшись в замке Иф (кстати, за такое время можно было сделать более тонкое зрелище, затронув душевное состояние узников, а не пересказывать, что они там делали столько лет), к кульминации фильм подходит, как запутавшийся клубок, где авторы от безысходности всё собирают в одно место и уделяют всему два с половиной коротких эпизода. Плеваться хотелось от такого поворота событий. Мало того, что вырезали многих интересных героев, не говоря о событиях, так и из того, что осталось не получилось ничего, при этом изменив оставшихся героев.

      Agree that the history was severely chopped by Hollywood, but take in count most audiences can't cope with a 5 hour movie anymore. "The Count of Montecristo" deserves to be a mini series like "True Detective". It's not a story that can be narrated in 150 minutes.

      @@alvaroandrespizzavarela878 The 2002 version did not simplify the story, it changed. Les Miserables is a book as big as the count of monte Cristo and the 2012 version has remained closer to the original story, even though the story is simplified. While the original Dumas book was reportedly a more morally ambiguous tale, where revenge ultimately brings no real pleasure, Reynolds transforms his movie into yet another populist story about the joy of revenge. In the process any moral ambiguity is jettisoned and avoided as if merely an unnecessary complication in an otherwise simple progression. Instead Reynolds concentrates on the systematic means by which a poor, innocent, illiterate man is robbed of that innocence and is transformed into a vengeful, sophistical but bitter man of means. He turns the story into a vision of the process of Experience ending Innocence through persecution and torture, then guiding it through despair until the desire for revenge disciplines the mind. The film’s first half, dedicated to this transformation, as despair finds a new purpose, is most complex. However, once Caviezel escapes, the film concentrates on his plan for revenge and as it avoids moral complexity has nowhere to go beyond the inevitable comeuppance. On that level it is entertaining.

    • @user-yu9nb6gy9t
      @user-yu9nb6gy9t Před 3 lety

      Although Caviezel carries the change well enough, he never carries the sense of a consumed and troubled obsessive. We sense his burden in part, but his righteous cause is never questioned or threatened, indeed enshrined in stone in his prison cell where it is engraved “God will give me Justice”. Although Caviezel despairs of God, the film’s religiosity emerges when he regains his faith in God through being granted revenge. Vengeance is thus a just purification of the wronged, and Caviezel remains a good soul. Correspondingly Pearce’s villain especially is so slimy and evil that it reduces the film to a simplistic, even caricaturish, audience-pleasing tale of good triumphing over evil. Pearce’s villainy rests in his sins of pride and envy but director Reynolds makes sure that Caviezel’s revenge is a just reward for his suffering. He even makes sure that Caviezel does not show too much pleasure in his acts. Indeed, Reynolds transforms vengeance completely into justice, ultimately deliberately choosing to settle for a conventional superficiality. This turns the film into a disposable entertainment, ultimately unmemorable.

      When you think about it, either Mercédès married Fernand a week after Edmond's arrest or so, either he is really dumb for not noticing Albert wasn't his son. In the novel she married him YEARS after Edmond's exile. Well that's not the only problem with this adaptation which not only simplify the plot (which is a blasphemy, considering the novel is famous FOR his complexity) but it also forcibly apply modern morals to a 19th century story and change the characters dynamics to fit a happy ending forced. Albert is NOT Edmond's son. He refuses to fight Monte-Cristo after finding out the horrible person his father is and that the Count is actually in the right. He also has to face public shame for avoiding the duel. His character has so much more depht in the novel.

      Because instead of mercedes marrying Mundogeo to give a father to his son and hide that he is a single mother. Because she does not abandon Edond, who was arrested as a Bonapartist, she stays with Mondego for money and Mondego accepts his son as happened in the book the man who laughs by Victor Hugo. Lord Clancharlie's mistress abandons him and becomes the mistress of the king who was the enemy of his former lover. "Lord Linnæus Clancharlie had not always been old and proscribed; he had had his phase of youth and passion. We know from Harrison and Pride that Cromwell, when young, loved women and pleasure, a taste which, at times (another reading of the text "Woman"), betrays a seditious man. Distrust the loosely-clasped girdle. Male proecinctam juvenem cavete. Lord Clancharlie, like Cromwell, had had his wild hours and his irregularities. He was known to have had a natural child, a son. This son was born in England in the last days of the republic, just as his father was going into exile. Hence he had never seen his father. This bastard of Lord Clancharlie had grown up as page at the court of Charles II. He was styled Lord David Dirry-Moir: he was a lord by courtesy, his mother being a woman of quality. The mother, while Lord Clancharlie was becoming an owl in Switzerland, made up her mind, being a beauty, to give over sulking, and was forgiven that Goth, her first lover, by one undeniably polished and at the same time a royalist, for it was the king himself. She had been but a short time the mistress of Charles II., sufficiently long however to have made his Majesty-who was delighted to have won so pretty a woman from the republic-bestow on the little Lord David, the son of his conquest, the office of keeper of the stick, which made that bastard officer, boarded at the king's expense, by a natural revulsion of feeling, an ardent adherent of the Stuarts. Lord David was for some time one of the hundred and seventy wearing the great sword, while afterwards, entering the corps of pensioners, he became one of the forty who bear the gilded halberd. He had, besides being one of the noble company instituted by Henry VIII. as a bodyguard, the privilege of laying the dishes on the king's table. Thus it was that whilst his father was growing gray in exile, Lord David prospered under Charles II." - the man who laughs by Victor Hugo

      It's part of the soundtrack and it is simply called “The Count of Monte Cristo-Training Montage". Here is the link to just the music. czcams.com/video/rKurYMe1Ba8/video.html
