The Claremont Runさんのイラストまとめ

Foregrounding long rising and falling strings in the soundtrack itself captures the concepts of tension and friction by quite literally using tension and friction to create the actual noises we’re hearing. Changing the notes on the same string suggests transformation. 5/6

Of course, we might argue that creating a sense of juvenilia and tension is actually a note-perfect approach to the thematic nature of the film itself and the story of Jean Grey in particular, a story that actively subverts (in many ways) the concept of heroism itself. 3/6

The score was not well-received, with Filmtracks calling it “a remarkably unremarkable film score” that sounds “juvenile,” while James Southall of MovieWave notes “there’s no real sense of heroism, rather a focus on tension and dark atmosphere.” 2/6

“Or growing up in haze. Or hanging in suspense – even wishing time would stop, or just twist sideways, so that one wouldn’t have to advance to new or further scenes of trouble.” 4/5

“the wall could shatter, the ball could bounce back and hit you in the nose, and all of them are possibilities for stories. All of them are routes to an unexpected conclusion that in turn should springboard a whole host of other stories.” 5/9

“Clark Kent? Ugh he’s a stiff, you know Bruce Wayne? For me, it’s seeing adolescence, it’s seeing people making mistakes, who are still learning the rules. This is soap opera, and the beauty of soap opera is that you can throw anything at the wall and the ball could shatter” 4/9

In a 2018 interview with Substream Magazine, Claremont discusses his approach of writing his characters from a perspective of perpetual adolescence in order to achieve the high level of drama that UXM thrives on. #xmen 1/9

Anyone can draw a “happy” person and have that come across, but only an artist can, in a minimalist medium, draw “a young Goddess reticently accepting her personal longing for intimacy even at the risk of a vulnerability that has harmed her before.” 5/8

The spectacle of working in the superhero genre has the potential to distract from an artist’s skill with rendering emotion, and Silvestri in particular has been badly undervalued in this aspect of his work. The quality and diversity of Storm’s expressions make that clear. 2/8

This adds poignancy to their return. Also enhanced, however, is the nature of her relationship with Forge. Where in “Lifedeath” Forge had manipulated and deceived Ororo, his demeanour here is changed – showing her nothing but respect and deference – honoring her. 9/11
