Chay got priapism from Tron: Legacy - Upcoming Films thread

[Reply #240 on:]

No, they haven't, but since Del Toro had to pull out Jackson has to make it himself.

[Reply #241 on:]

Yes, but when The Hobbit was first announced hadn't he wanted to direct it himself but couldn't because he was already commited to directing other films that coincided with this one's original production schedule?

[Reply #242 on:]

Afaik yes.

What the. I just saw a preview for Scream 4 on telly. I thought they were joking so I looked it up.

I kind of want to see it

I was about 11 or 12 when I watched the first Scream movie, it was all very exciting because I wasn't "mature" enough to watch such a film, according to ratings advice. I'd have to rent the other 3 movies first if I'm going to watch the 4th one.

[Reply #244 on:]

Perhaps now you're too mature and realise it will probably be a load of old balls.

[Reply #245 on:]

Oh yes, of course. I haven't had any interest in those sort of movies for a long, long time. But nostalgia, dammit!

You really don't. 1 & 2 are the decent ones. 3 is meh, and 4 is... I can't even bring myself to give it "meh" status. It's so meh, I can't even "meh" about it.

I saw it one time on pay-per-view while skipping school.  Don't remember much about it though.... maybe somebody got set on fire?

How the hell can you have seen 4 before it even came out?

By the way it's not even being called Scream 4, it's just being called Scream, as in a remake of the first film.

If it's a remake of the first film then the previews are lying.  So is the description:

Ten years have passed, and Sidney Prescott, who has put herself back together thanks in part to her writing, is visited by the Ghostface Killer.

I hope this time when he takes off his mask, it is revealed that the Ghostface Killer is Ghostface Killah.  The killers final rant done in rap would be so fun.

[Reply #252 on:]

Hm. Well they're still just calling it Scream. Marketing departments are dumb.

The Dark Knight Rises (2012)


While it’s been widely known for a while now that if Inception stars Joseph Gordon-Levitt and Marion Cotillard weren’t 100% locked into Chris Nolan’s The Dark Knight Rises, they were at least so close to their respective roles that only a supreme quirk of scheduling could get in the way. Now they’re officially aboard and Warner Bros. has gone ahead and revealed their characters.

Despite previous hints and reports that Cotillard and Gordon-Levitt would both be playing established villains from the Bat-canon, the press release specifies that they’re actually new creations dreamt up by Nolan alongside brother Jonah and co-writer David Goyer.

Cotillard’s appearing as Miranda Tate, a member of the Wayne Enterprises board who looks to help a distraught Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) cope with his grief over Rachel Dawes by resuming the philanthropic work begun by his father.

And though he was linked to the role of Alberto Falcone, Gordon-Levitt is actually playing John Blake, a Gotham cop given a special assignment by Gary Oldman’s Commissioner Gordon.

"When you collaborate with people as talented as Marion and Joe, it comes as no surprise that you would want to repeat the experience," Nolan said in a statement picked up by The Wrap. "I immediately thought of them for the roles of Miranda and Blake, and I am looking forward to working with both of them again."

But while these character descriptions are all well and good for a press release, it’s still possible one or both could turn out to have ulterior motives in mind. Don’t forget the bait-and-switched pulled by Liam Neeson’s Ra’s Al Ghul in Batman Begins…

The Dark Knight Rises starts shooting later this year for a planned release date of July 20 2012.

Also, I keep hearing about actors joining Ridley Scotts pseudo-Alien film Prometheus, looks like Guy Pearce has joined up along with Noomi Rapace, Charlize Theron, Michael Fassbender, Idris Elba, sounds sweet.

Is it a prequel about the alien race pilot?

  Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows Part 2 Trailer is out

[Reply #263 on:]

Hmm. The following preview contains NYEAAHHHHH!!!

[Reply #264 on:]

Hmm. The following preview contains NYEAAHHHHH!!!

Why, that's what the whole movie is about. :wink:  Also there's a scene in that trailer that isn't in the book. I swear if they cut something important to add that in... I'm gonna nerd rage. The Potter trailer regardless has me interested in seeing the last film. Guess it's time for me to catch up on the first half.

[Reply #265 on:]

They made movies about Harry Potter? Are they any good?

[Reply #266 on:]

If that's a joke, it's a really bad one.

They've made all the books into movies starting way back in 1999. The movies are a mixed bag in terms of if you'll like them/hate them. If you want 100% accuracy, you won't get it. I'm still miffed about the third movie rearranging the part where Harry got his new broomstick for Quidditch. Overall they're good, but the first few feel more magical than the more recent ones. To me, the fourth film was the last really solid one worth buying on DVD and rewatching but to each their own, eh?

[Reply #267 on:]

Hm. Well they're still just calling it Scream. Marketing departments are dumb.

They are/were calling it Scre4m. It's not really a remake. Since it's a new generation, and the films were always meta, 2 was a "Sequel" and the killer followed sequel rules, so this generation is all about reboots, so the killer closely follows the events of Stab 1/the events of Scream 1.

Also, it was actually pretty good. Let's just hope they don't do 5 and 6 cause that will kind of undo what 4 just did...

[Reply #268 on:]

All joking aside about how "meh" it will be (yes, my previous post on the subject was in reference to how the 4th Jaws and Alien films both were extremely "meh"), I might go see Scream 4 if it's a reboot. Although I do wonder why they don't make it a seperate franchise.

Alternate titles:

Screech
Squawk

Frightened ejaculation denoting surprise

I loved that book. Can't wait to see it.

[Reply #273 on:]

It's a kids book.... 

Show spoiler

I bought it too for some reason.

[Reply #274 on:]

I, for one, cannot wait for the Captain America movie. Green Lantern, too, but Thor...? Maybe for the Avenger's tie-in.

[Reply #275 on:]

Thor is supposed to be awesome!

Green Lantern I heard a lot of bad about.

[Reply #276 on:]

It's all about Hal Jordan's Green Lantern. I can't wait for Captain America, though. Gonna be as sweet reboot.

[Reply #277 on:]

I'm looking forward to Green Lantern more now than I was originally. The new trailers make it look a lot more promising than the first few. I like the fact that they're actually going to go headfirst into the epic scifi and alien elements, with a lot of the movie taking place in space or on other planets (according to the trailers and what I've read) and the interesting different alien designs on display. Makes it seem like they're not just going to try to pander to the mainstream and actually tell the story from the comics.

As for Captain America, I probably won't be sure until I see it. It's the only Avengers tie-in movie so far where they picked an actor and director who haven't done anything particularly great so far. From the screenshots I've seen though, it seems like they've nailed the visual aspect (the costume looks great), so we can hope that it'll just be another fun movie like Thor is supposed to be...which I need to see soon.

[Reply #278 on:]

I'm liking the X-Men: First Class clips they've brought out so far, it looks pretty good.

Also Horrible Bosses looks like fun with a great cast, it's about 3 guys (Jasons Bateman and Sudeikis, and Charlie Day from Always Sunny in Philly) who hate their respective bosses (Kevin Spacey, Colin Farrell and Jennifer Aniston) and plan to murder them, hilarity ensues.
Also Bunk from The Wire is in it as a police detective!

[Reply #279 on:]

Saw the First Class clips a while ago introducing some of the characters, they do make the movie look like it's going to be really good.
