Re: The Freeze Frame Ending
Love it. The most fun is when the composition of the shot or 'set up' is that obvious a freeze frame is coming. Your mind just has time to go 'freeze frame' before it happens!

Re: The Freeze Frame Ending
The first that springs to mind is Police Story - does it have one or am I just imagining it?

Re: The Freeze Frame Ending
There's a deleted scene on the DD (i think) Police Story dvd where the movie carries on for a bit after that ending.

Re: The Freeze Frame Ending
Wasn't there an additional end coda on the MIHK tape? I don't think any DVD (HKL or IVL) had that ending.
I'm sure these had a freeze frame ending:
Prodigal Son
Dreadnaught

The Fist of Fury one is epic. What's the Winners and Sinners one? I've not seen the film.

Re: The Freeze Frame Ending
DVD software often has an option to take a screenshot, with VLC you right-click on the image, select Video, and then Snapshot, for instance.grim_tales wrote:I would if I knew how but I dont

Re: The Freeze Frame Ending
It's really easy. Look for a screen capture option in any DVD software. Find the shot and click it, then paste it into Photoshop or similar and save it as a JPEG. Then upload it. You know how to do that right? .grim_tales wrote:I would if I knew how but I dont
I want to see it too .gasteropod wrote:I believe Luckystars described it lol

Re: The Freeze Frame Ending
With the VLC method it automatically saves it as a jpeg for you, you don't need to use Photoshop or anything.

Re: The Freeze Frame Ending
Death Proof, (one of the best American films in recent years ) has a double freeze ending.
Spoilers so I linked it
http://s18.postimage.org/ferv3jo1l/death_proof.jpg <----- freeze frame
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EYt9AlsgPCo <------ and how the ending continues after the credits roll.
Could it be unique?
