It was actually gonna be called Solace. And Paul Verhoven was supposedly supposed to direct it. But there hasn't been any other news about the movie since that. Good thing too because it was rumored that Morgan Freeman's character was gonna get pyschic powers....

I made this thread so we could take about the movie here.
I think Se7en is one of the very best movies ever made, it is bloody brilliant. The story is amazing and the cast and acting is stunning too. I also must say that this one of the most exciting movies I have ever seen. The end was just too exciting to describe.

Also the sets and locations are brilliant, the city is so dark and you don't know where the hell it is.'
The location of the end is just surrealistic..and so awesome.

I LOVE this movie.

 

[Spider-Man Luvr28]

The ending was awesome.I liked it.

 

[Dark Donnie]

I have to second this, some great acting ( Freeman, Pitt, and especially Spacey), and great direction by Fincher. The city really is great, always raining and dark. The chemistry between Mills and Somerset is awesome! This movie is truly brilliant!

I nearly SHAT my pants when I saw ''sloth''

 

[Dark Donnie]

As did I, the pictures of him over the period of time are sick as well. You see him deteriorating over the course of time.

"he'd die right now of shock if you were to shine a flashlight in his eyes."

Se7en for me suffers the same thing as movies like American Psycho and Fight Club. I love all three, yet for some reason i always seem to get bored with hearing about them if you know what I mean. Not so much bored talking about them but rather they get talked about to death.

Love the film though.

 

[Carmine Falcone]

The movie doesn't have 1 single bad or boring scene in it IMO. The scene in which Mills and Somerset are standing in front of the door of John Doe's apartment and Doe comes walking into the hallway, he sees them and shoots on them and then the abnormally exciting chase through the City is awesome.
When they entered the home of Doe, that was disturbing all those note books with his sick stories in it. And then HE CALLS...creepy.......

I can go on and on saying how much i like this movie.

 

[Dark Donnie]

I know what you mean, but I really don't hear about Se7en as much as I do American Psycho or Fight Club. Those two(at least American Psycho) are probably the most talked about on these boards. I think Se7en is the superior of the three films BTW.

 

[Carmine Falcone]

yeah I think Fight Club is amazing too. But Se7en owns it.

 

[Dark Donnie]

Did you know that All of John Doe's books were real books, written for the film. They took two months to complete and cost $15,000. Saw this over at IMDB. That is ridiculous!

 

[Carmine Falcone]

holy ****! that is really weird.

 

[Dark Donnie]

Carmine, do you own the regular copy or the special edition?

 

[Motown Marvel]

i wonder if anyone here can tell me the meaning of this film according to andrew kevin walker?

 

[Carmine Falcone]

regular copy

btw: from IMDB:

New Line executives originally balked at the film's ending, but Brad Pitt refused to make the film if the ending were changed.

Way to go Pitt

 

[logan_weapon_x]

Don't get me wrong guys. I love the film as well.

 

[Dark Donnie]

The endings really aren't that different, just shot different, different music, some scenes are taken out some little things added nothing drastic though. The platinum edition is also cool cause it looks like one of John Doe's notebooks.

 

[Dark Donnie]

You should pick up the platinum edition, it's worth it. It has alternate endings extended scenes commentary from Pitt Freeman and Fincher, and a bunch of creepy pictures.

 

[Carmine Falcone]

Please tell me the alternate endings...
