SpunkySelfTwitter It’s an especially fun movie from a director and cast who are clearly having a good time allowing themselves to let loose.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
yunfangoerba I don't understand how Natalie won in the end. Her pieces were too weak in my opinion. Watching the episode where she painted a peanut butter sandwich, the sandwich was not really deep or on point compared to the rest, and the poses were too simple, yet she still managed to stay? Nicole's piece was definitely better, there were at least movements like hair and scarf flying in the wind. I feel like the judges were kind of biased because they like peanut butter sandwich? Just can't really agree. In my honest opinion, her techniques were really in the bottom. I'm not convinced by the judges decision. And creativity? you call peanut butter sandwich creativity?AND in the episode where they ask them to paint only on hands to tell a story, she painted mountains and volcano eruption. How is that even a story? Zeus and cow, that's a story. Adam and Eve, that's a story. Volcano eruption? that's not even a story!!! and she won???????? are judges blind?
stefanmitchell-61951 Rupaul takes over the show a bit to much in season 3 and attitude against the artist. So the show is getting to be more about Rupaul and who he likes the body art. So from being a show with top marks it hit rock bottom. If you want people around you in a bad mood and to become haters make them watch season 3 and part where contestant Hans leaves the show.
Jenn Sorry for any spoilers! So we've watched two seasons so far, 1 & 2, and admittedly we watched them in a couple of days, but I'm not going to be watching season 3 for a couple of reasons, most noticeable in season 2. Firstly, the judging is bad, and not because I disagree with their choices necessarily, but because it is never clear what they're judging on. Take the steam punk challenge - To one contestant they're saying, you aren't meeting the challenge; to the next they're saying, I don't care that you didn't meet the challenge, this is a beautiful painting; and to the next they're saying, you met the challenge but it's too true to what we're asking and then voting her out on the strength of that. I really couldn't understand what they were choosing based on, unless it was the judges own tastes - and that's hardly reasonable. Secondly, bullying. I mean, how is making a judge laugh a reasonable challenge anyway, but then the winner did a mean, bullying cartoon of another contestant and that won. Really? Come on now. Not only should that contestant have been reprimanded rather than rewarded, the judge also succeeded in making himself despicable by condoning that behaviour. Way to create role models, hey. You just have to watch Face Off to see how good this show could be - and perhaps it's the contrast between the two shows that leaves me absolutely cold here.
atlasmb Hosted by the beautiful Rebecca Romijn, "Skin Wars" is a competition show that pits body painting artists against each other in a series of challenges. Verdicts are delivered by a panel of judges.Each season, the producers try to throw more varied, more difficult, and more imaginative tasks at the artists. Such challenges can include camouflage work (where they attempt to make the model disappear into a background image), themed challenges (which can involve anything from super heroes to scenes from nature), or images inspired by the artists' own stories. I love this show because it really illustrates the incredible talents of these artists. Painting is difficult, in general, but painting on a curved, movable surface presents some specific, harder challenges.They also use different types of models. On one episode, they painted inspiring images on breast cancer survivors, which was very empowering and extremely beautiful.It's nice to have television shows that celebrate artistry and beauty. "Skin Wars" is one of the best.
