Upcoming Films of Interest

[lazarus]

Maybe I'm amazed.

The only thing missing fom this film is some pap song from Macca to ensure yet another Oscar nomination.


Ironically, my iPhone auto-corrected "Macca" to "Maccabee". Bonus lulz.

don't want to mock anyone,
but War Horse, the Broadway show looked terrible.

Spielberg's has a tendency to milk sentimentalism for all it's worth
and then rub out one more,

a sure crowd-pleaser.

Please can I have some more? Seriously it will be nice to see something that has Spielberg as a director instead of producer. I'm tired of him producing EVERYTHING. It will be the first directed movie by him since the tepid Indy 4. He needs a comeback.

Both War Horse and MI:4 look promising but we'll have to wait and see.

War Horse is supposed to be an incredible show and novel. While the cinematography and cast look great for Spielberg's version, whoever cut that trailer needs to be fired.

I saw that trailer right before Midnight in Paris.

 

[deep]

your impression?

did you see this one too. I'm on board for it

YouTube - ‪The Guard - Official Trailer [HD]‬‏

 

[No spoken words]

I'd like to see The Guard. As for The Devils Double, it didn't really intrigue me all that much, not sure why.....

"Piqued".​

 

[powerhour24]

Thank you for doing that laz. Also The Guard looks like one of the more ridiculous films if the year, and I can't wait for it.

The Adventures of Tintin: Secret of the Unicorn – Exclusive Trailer | Movies Blog - Yahoo! Movies

Yeah yeah, I know. I'm so fucking sold on this though.

 

[powerhour24]

Word, it's really cool to see Spielberg's action sensibilities in animated form and bringing Herge's comics to life.

Also, re: the Guard, I just remembered that the writer/director is the brother of Martin McDonagh (famous playwright and In Bruges writer/director). Should be fun to see how much talent runs in the family.

Yeah yeah, I know. I'm so fucking sold on this though.

Between this, Mission Impossible IV and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, Winter will be an embarrassment of studio riches.

New Miyazaki (the lesser).

Wow, I didn't even know he had a new one in the works.


Already looks better than Arietty IMO.

 

[Lancemc]

I think I agree actually. I get a less fanciful Ponyo vibe from the artwork.

Contagion - Movie Trailers - iTunes

Quite underwhelmed.

 

[No spoken words]

Fuck you, I'm in.

 

[Lancemc]

Way more excited for Haywire.

 

[No spoken words]

Oh, god, me too.

The Fass!

 

[LMP]

Add me to the Haywire train. Too bad it keeps being thrown around like a rag doll, release date-wise.

 

[powerhour24]

I think Contagion looks excellent, and I really like the naturalistic lighting scheme, glad that despite the price tag and cast it isn't Hollywoodized. The constant delays and slight subject matter worries me for Haywire, though I am white excited for that cast and Soderbergh doing a frenetic action movie.

 

[No spoken words]

I am white excited

Oh you fucking Boston racist.

 

[LMP]

I'm... white.

 

[bono_212]

I think I agree actually. I get a less fanciful Ponyo vibe from the artwork.

I really, really love the artwork. Looks a lot like Castle in the Sky, which is a great thing in my book.

Yeah, I've never been that excited for Haywire w/r/t its premise, even if there are some cool cast members. Contagion, while it may look like some standard all-star Hollywood thriller, we know it's going to be a lot more interesting than that.

But hey, at least Julia Roberts isn't in either film.

I really, really love the artwork. Looks a lot like Castle in the Sky, which is a great thing in my book.

Yeah, it reminded me more of Laputa (or Porco Rosso) than Ponyo.

 

[Lancemc]

Yeah, I see that. Was just what jumped to mind, since Ponyo itself was a sort of stylistic throw-back in a sense. Laputa seems like the best touchstone though, upon reflection.

 

[No spoken words]

Yeah, it reminded me more of Echutah

How rude.

 

[bono_212]

Laputa being my second favorite of their films, I'm pretty damn excited.

Lance, is this the movie you've already seen or is this another upcoming?
