    So, this video confirms that he did direct 'Dredd' (2012)

    For some reason, the director's fav shots is never what we would think. It's usually what the audience doesn't notice.

    The flight path of the helicopter in Ex Machina is a Fibonacci spiral.

    Kudos to the set designer for coming up with the bathtub idea in Dredd, because it was a brilliant way to show how Ma-ma found a way to be opulent in the slums. There was very little to be had in the way of creature comforts in a rundown tower block, but a place to sit and enjoy a bath without a care in the world shows just how powerful Ma-ma is.

    I love Annihilation, Sonoya Mizuno really sold that creature that imitates Natalie Portman's character. For me it's a great modern sci-fi horror with classic cosmic horror elements. Some of the visuals are burned in my mind for ever.

    Devs is really underrated. That show stuck with me for weeks after.

    I've done nearly 300 hours of interviews with the best cinematographers in the world on my channel in the past 4 years, I'm so mad I never thought of this format lmfao

    I love the way Alex Garland's work always has a serenity and beauty with a menace lurking just underneath all of it. Excited to see Civil War.

    Wild he chose the helicopter scene for ex machina. The red outline of ava, the reverse shadow of ava to close the movie, Caleb and Nathan by the waterfall, that whole movie is beautiful

    Silence is well used in Civil War and that scene with Joel is powerful.

    Dredd and Ex Machina were both epic.

    Such a big fan of his. Really looking forward to Civil War and hope the rumors of him leaving directing aren’t true…

    So cool you have him on! I admire Ex Machina like few other films! To me it is perfection in every aspect. Never ever have I seen a film before or since that deals with the question of consciousness and humanness in such a profound and philosophical way and the filed of movies that deal with these topics is fortunaly vast and I've seen many of them, which shall just emphasize my compliment! 🙂
