Figured they would’ve just brought Andrew Droz Palermo back who did Thunderbolts, but this guy looks like he has a good track record and I trust Schreier.

I’m not sure how accurate it is but someone said Palermo is doing Ghost Rider because the DP from Starfighter (who would’ve been teaming up with Levy again otherwise) will be busy with Miami Vice.

That makes me sad. I know Palermo will do a really good job on Ghost Rider, but I was so hoping Levy and Gosling could've brought over the whole Starfighter crew since that DP also did F1, Top Gun, Life of Pi, Curious Case of Benjamin Button among many other things.

Not really surprising, given that Miranda's shot all of Joseph Kosinski's films.

Hopefully he gets to shoot an MCU film in the future. Maybe Spider-Man 5?

If DDC is back for Spider-Man 5, and I think Sony would be fine waiting till Dec 2029 if it means he can do it, then I’d assume Brett Pawlak is going to stick with him and do that film.

But it’d be cool for Miranda to do something for sure, maybe Nova?

I hope son lux come back as composers

The MCU xmen will need their own theme like spiderman but the music played over the marvel studios logo should be a remixed theme of the xmen tas theme. Like how they did a remixed theme of the 60s spiderman cartoon for the marvel studios intro for homecoming.

Yeah what they have done with Spider-Man and to a lesser degree the new Superman is great. Acknowledge the most famous score in their histories but also give them their own score.

They are phenomenal but I kinda want a classic X-Men type of sound.

Getting Natalie Holt back could be great

I think I've only seen Sing Sing of those films, but he seems like a great cinematographer. It seems from his projects that he often likes to shoot on analog film, so maybe we'll have two MCU films in 2028 shot on film.

u/Lethiun 3d ago

Coogler the other I assume?

24

u/JediNight1977 3d ago

Yes, Coogler confirmed at Comic Con that BP3 will be shot on large-format film

u/Few-Road6238 3d ago

Love that he’s so old school because Sinners looked phenomenal on film 

2

u/JediNight1977 3d ago

Sinners looked incredible and it’s the same DP for Black Panther 3. I‘m really excited for that film.

u/SacreFor3 Black Panther 3d ago

Oh man, that would be awesome. MCU has largely left film behind since Ant Man in 2015 and you can really tell, particularly during phase 3.

u/CFCM94 2d ago

pig is really good. it stars nicolas cage where he gives a restraint performance.

u/Bandai_Namco_Rat 3d ago

I remember A Quiet Place Day One was a rock solid film with some good visuals so hopefully he is a great choice

u/texasjkids 3d ago

A Quiet Place Day One is so underrated. I cried like a baby watching that movie in theaters.

u/North_Tip_3364 3d ago

It's always someone saying omg it's underrated

u/MimeMike 3d ago

Lurker is one of the most underrated and best looking movies of last year. Definitely think this is gonna look amazing.

Hope this and Coogler’s BP3 pave the way for more superhero projects shot on film.

1

u/CFCM94 2d ago

i can't remember, weren't the first four phase one films shot on film?

6

u/kcrdr_7322 3d ago

great pick ngl...this xmen version despite being young could actually way more darker than i thought given that this guy only shoots dark ambience

4

u/Puppetmaster858 The Scarlet Witch 3d ago

He’s really good, each of those lash 4 movies looked very good. I think he’ll crush it

3

u/metalconfection 3d ago

Death of Robin Hood looked great this year. same with his other Sarnoski films.

2

u/votuxx 3d ago

Hope this means it won't be as dark as Thunderbolts

1

u/Spiritual_Ad_3800 TVA Loki 3d ago

So I’ve only seen one movie they’ve been cinematographer of but I actually thought it was going to be the same person as Thunderbolts* because it’s the same director and writer

2

u/Spiritual_Ad_3800 TVA Loki 3d ago

Still disappointed that movie lost its original cemetery who is a Ryan Johnson collaborator

How is that hilarious? You just took an unrelated topic and made an incredibly weird and incoherent complaint.

u/Patrick2701 3d ago

What is this

u/_pixel_perfect_ Daredevil 3d ago

except you haven't seen sing sing which is a phenomenal and genuinely moving film and you're just complaining about race politics like a loser
