"The next one’s gonna be coming out a lot sooner." hahahaha.... yeah... We really gotta stop saying these kind of things. We do need to get together sometime and do another one though, since we're nearly done.

It's really weird having music during the clips of Vince. I don't know if that was something you planned to fix later, but if not, I strongly suggest it.

Also there were some songs that would stretch across two or three scenes. It made it feel a lot longer than it was, which isn't exactly a good thing.

Other than that, it was great! Loved the new song at the end.

Wow. So. Cool. Must. See. Season. Two. THIS IS AWESOME!

I'm so glad you got it up on the site, the audio isn't that bad, what we really want to see is the action! Btw, what is the song you used during the whole end of the episode? It was really pretty, and not on the soundtrack? But anyway, congrats on getting a version on here! =D

I don't think the audio is nearly bad enough to justify a 5-month delay, haha.

Way to finish it off!

Re: Absoution: Episode 2 - Gresham

Adalyn Morris — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 22:11:41 -0000

For starters, yes, when Adam and Eve sinned we knew what was going to happen. They had to leave the garden and live in a world of sin. But it wasn't until thousands of years later that God's plan through Jesus began to be revealed through the prophets. That took a long time, and there was a lot of conflict and many problems up until then.

Secondly, YES, I DID DISAGREE WITH WHAT YOU SAID ABOUT GABBY. I know her very well, and I know for a fact that she doesn't believe that God delights in death. (See my reply to your last comment on episode 1. And please don't say anything about not knowing all the information, because I read all of your comments up to this point)

Re: Absolution: Episode 1 - Green

Adalyn Morris — Mon, 30 Mar 2009 22:02:11 -0000

I know this is a really old post, but I thought I'd share my opinion anyway, though I'll try to keep it as short as possible.

Absolution is about survival. This has been stated many times. It's like a war. If you're on one side and someone from the other side is about to kill you, what will you think of first? Will you think "What can I do to help this person see that what they are doing is wrong?" or will you try to defend yourself. If you say the first answer, then I can automatically assume you've never been into battle . If you say the second, then I would call it human nature. And you could say "You should think of others before yourself in a situation like that". You'd be absolutely right. We SHOULD. But do we always do what we should do? Of course not. We are sinful beings, incapable of always doing what is right. Romans 3:23 - "For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." This show is very real in the fact that it portrays the way people actually are as opposed to the perfect ideal. No one ever said that everything portrayed by the characters is correct. As for the shooting incident with James, I have this to ask you. If you had to choose between saving someone you'd never met and saving someone you love, who would you choose? And considering how much James has lost, can you understand that he doesn't want to lose anyone important to him? To be honest, I would agree with you about trying to save the infected if it weren't for one very important fact. They are teenagers! They don't know what caused this virus or how to stop it. Otherwise, I believe they would have tried to stop it long ago. Now they're just doing all that they can to stay alive to see the day when there is a cure.

You said the conflict needs to be known to the audience. This is episode 1. There are many episode coming later. You as a filmmaker should know you can't reveal everything in the first episodes. You introduce problems and conflicts and solve them later on. So how can you say that the wrong actions of the characters are going to be ignored or have no consequences? There was sin in the world for thousands of years before Jesus came. That didn't mean that God didn't have a plan. It just hadn't come to fruition yet.

You have no reason to believe that all the views represented on the show are the actual beliefs of the cast and writers. They are simply portraying more than one belief in the show. (There's the conflict, btw) Micah said "kill or be killed" but you took it out of context. He wasn't talking about himself. He was talking about the characters, and their WAR against the infected. He was saying James did the right thing IN THAT SITUATION, not that what James did is always the right thing. Would you go so far as to take that statement and say that he would apply that to his daily life?

I happen to know Gabby personally, and I know that she didn't mean "that God will reject people and smile down on their deaths." Only she can know exactly what she meant. I believe she meant more that, in light of the current state of their lives, God is happy they can finally rest in peace. I don't think anyone here believes that God delights in peoples death.

The main issue I would like to bring up is how harshly you are criticizing these people, not just their work. You have called the creators of absolution false preachers, bad influences, and misusers of the gifts God has given them. You have accused them of portraying a God who delights in destruction and watering down Christianity. Matthew 7:1 says "Do not judge, or you too will be judged." I would have no problem if you expressed your opinion as to why you were opposed to the show. But you've, repeatedly, gone as far as to question the very Christianity of the people involved! I believe that is a kind of judgment only God can pass. 1 Samuel 16:7 says "Man looks at the outward appearance, but the LORD looks at the heart." All I ask is that if you do decide to post on this again, that you stuck with your opinion and leave out the personal beliefs of the Absolution cast and crew.

Your sister in Christ,
Adalyn Morris

Despite all the trouble you went through to change everything, my favorite part is still when Doug kicks Jordan :)

I think the first and last music transitions need to be less abrupt. About the ending: I agree about Low Key, but I also can't think of anything else to use. You may want to leave as is? Your choice. I'm sure no matter what you do, it'll turn out great.

1:02-1:07 the lighting changed back to the un-edited version.

CharlieJB — Fri, 27 Mar 2009 12:21:56 -0000

It's funny. I would've actually thought that the first picture of James was the remastered version, and the green was the old one.

Re: Absolution: Episode Two - “Gresham” (Remastered)

Peter_CoCreator — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 23:55:58 -0000

Yeah, I know what you mean about Hide and Seek, I'll fix it once you send me that other version. I'll TRY and line up Their Blood but unfortunately it doesn't sound like the end of the song when you slide, maybe I can try the last half or something. I'll try a different song with the ending too.

Re: Absolution: Episode Two - “Gresham” (Remastered)

CharlieJB — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 23:31:50 -0000

I'll be honest. Everything aside from the color changes, which were great, was pretty terrible. I thought the music, aside from Red Mausoleum and that whole scene where the survivors find Adam, was horrible. "Hide and Seek" was butchered by the drums and should never be allowed on DVD.

The intro sequence shouldn't fade in. It was much better with a complete fade in from black.

Their Blood should be lined up so that it ends when the door closes, and Low Key was NOT meant for that ending.

James' Theme Reprise, was however, awesome at the planning table.

Re: Absolution: Episode Two - “Gresham” (Remastered)

Laura Gaul — Sun, 22 Mar 2009 21:32:29 -0000

Whoa, this is really cool!! I really like that some of the darker scenes were lightened, and it is really cool when you use Red Mausoleum for when Jordan and James first find Adam. Everything just looks really clear too, that's cool! Haha, I think 8:46 to 9:47 is a great scene. There blood is upon them goes great with the sort of organized chaos there working through. Music was a little cut off transitioning out of that scene, but that's picking at the little stuff. Overall, really coo!

Lol, when I saw the tital screen come up I felt like I had to start cheering and clapping. :D The release party was SO AWESOME!

Can't wait to see more of the remastered ones!
