Drake's Fortune similarity to Shutter Island - Blu-ray Forum

heathward · 02-26-2010, 09:14 PM

for those of you that have seen the fantastic Shutter Island...
the opening scene on the boat. the water, the sky, the camera angle, the boat itself was strikingly similar to the beginning of Drake's Fortune. i immediately thought of the game during the beginning of the movie. did anybody else notice this? might not be worthy of a thread, but it is 4:00pm...and i am at work and bored out of my mind. i don't like talking to the imbeciles here if i don't have to, and this is the only forum i belong to where everyone is intelligent, polite, and fun. my brain is running at about 25% right now. my wife and i have been partying extremely hard as we have friends in town all week for a Sports Show. this weekend is gonna be ridiculous. i just hope i have some time for some punishment in Dante's Inferno. bla bla bla i really need a good night's sleep.

as fun as it is to go out and get shatfaced all night and eat great food and laugh till my face hurts, i really miss playing video games. it is like the 2nd love of my life. everyone is coming over to our house tomorrow afternoon, and i think i will throw in some Buzz Quiz TV. this is the time when i wish North America had VidZone. i could just play music videos all day. it's easy entertainment. thanks for reading my wall of text.

Guess I'll have to check out Shutter Island. Is Elena or Cloe in it?

hey, why is your system caged off? do you have little ones, or a large dog, or both?

Been there since my son was a toddler. I did not want it to fall on him, or for him to put anything in the VCR, etc.

If you read the posts under the photos, I share some stories about why I set it up that way

Didn't notice at the time, but I guess they are similar in some ways. Great game and great movie!
