Sequels and Prequels and Remakes, Oh My! (Upcoming Films)

[Reply #280 on:]

If they do another movie in the Prometheus/Aliens universe, I would love to see Gong Li as the main character.  I think she would really do so well in that kind of role.

I'd like to see Michael Fassbender as a selection of other David Bowie-inspired robots. A Ziggy Stardust-era Bowie, a Thin White Duke Bowie and a contemporary Bowie all teaming up to fight Xenomorphs: Alien vs. Bowie vs. Predator.

They thought everything was hunky dory.

A L I E N vs Bowie

I would actually like Harry Potter if they made David Bowie a main character.

Oh Harry, you just shut your mouth.  She says..."

You may need a catheter to get through The Dark Knight Rises...

2:45!?! It had better be fan-freaking-amazing because I doubt I'll want to see it more than once. And that being said if it is that long I don't know that going to see it over and over again will work out as long. (Apologies for the comparison) The Avengers 2 1/2 hours didn't feel like it was that long. And I think that's because it was very action-heavy and there is a lot happening because there are multiple characters to follow. The Dark Knight Rises has one HUGE MAIN character and lots of supporting characters. Hopefully that means we get lots of Catwoman exposition.

Oooh, mister fancy medical mumbo jumbo, too good for an empty soda cup, or in a fix, popcorn bucket!

I'm the opposite. Regardless of how long it is, I'll probably see it at least three times

Bee tee dubs, if you haven't seen it yet, here's the trailer for Wreck-It Ralph, directed by Futurama's own Rich Moore. I had my doubts at first, but it looks truly good. Getting the rights to all of those other games' characters looks like it'll flesh out the movie a lot à la Who Framed Roger Rabbit. I'm genuinely looking forward to this one.

[Reply #293 on:]

I'm still not a John C. fan, but I'm willing to give this film a go even if it's just to see all the gaming icons come together on the big screen. As for DKR, that's a long damned movie/ I barely made it through my second viewing of Avengers but my will to see the ending outweighed my having to piss super badly. I'm not sure I'd be so devoted to Batman as that. Maybe if he was really hot I'd retract that statement.

[Reply #294 on:]

Most of you probably know what Marvel have planned for their "Marvel Cinematic Universe" series (Iron Man, The Incredible Hulk, Thor, Captain America: The First Avenger and The Avengers), but if not, OH SWEET JESUS.

If all of the characters/groups mentioned get seperate films, plus the films that are confirmed, that means there will be 24 MCU movies!

[Reply #295 on:]

I really can't see an Ant-Man movie being big.

[Reply #296 on:]

Daredevil was great, amirite?

Watchmen already gets my vote as best group comic book hero movie.

[Reply #297 on:]

Maybe not, but with Edgar Wright at the helm, it stands to be one of Marvel's best. Certainly a lot more interesting than most of those heroes who haven't had films yet.

Most of those smaller property films (like [randomly picks] Dr. Strange, for example) are likely never going to happen. Considering that there's 14 confirmed films (already released or confirmed planning to be made) in the MCU by ~2015/16 (a seven or eight year period), I think it'll be a little while until they get anywhere 24 without diluting the product. We don't want the MCU to end up like Guitar Hero...

[Reply #303 on:]

Just because you don't want it to end up like Guitar Hero doesn't mean that somebody who stands to make money in the short term does not want it to end up like Guitar Hero.

Furthermore, even though that's a shitty business philosophy, it may be the only reasonable one to have if your goal is to make money; the key to this perspective being that you can't make money while you're dead, and that you have a finite amount of time being alive.

Good Lord. As much as I like the movies, I really don't have enough time or money to watch that many.

A Hawkeye movie would be pretty sweet though.

[Reply #305 on:]

24 films or not, it's not going to be more than 2 a year. You don't have time or money for 2 films a year?

[Reply #306 on:]

Well, I suppose 2 a year isn't too bad. I don't usually see many movies anyway, especially at the cinema.

A non-Pixar but CGI Disney movie that really looks really great. I think it's the end of world as we know it! It look better than Brave. I'm shocked!

[Reply #308 on:]

You may also notice it's directed by Rich Moore, who directed Futurama's very own Space Pilot 3000, Hell Is Other Robots, A Clone of My Own, Anthology of Interest I and the classic Roswell That Ends Well.

Should be awesome then.

[Reply #309 on:]

When I first heard the premise I had serious doubts, but upon seeing the trailer, I'm very excited for it. An animated film I may very well need to see in theaters.

[Reply #310 on:]

How could you possibly have serious doubts over such a fantastic premise?

[Reply #311 on:]

I automatically had doubts just because it was non-Pixar CGI.

[Reply #312 on:]

That does look pretty interesting. Which is good because there is so little I care to see lately.

Meet the Robinsons was awesome.

[Reply #314 on:]

That was pretty awful to me I didn't like tangled,bolt or chicken little. Maybe this will be there only good one.

[Reply #315 on:]

Ha, for a second and got confused that that was the movie with older woman Mrs Robinson seduces the young lad...nope, that's The Graduate.

[Reply #316 on:]

The Graduate is awesome.

[Reply #317 on:]

The more of you who think that, the less creepy I will look in the end. So thanks!

  What? She gets no argument from me on this one.

Its worse than that, its physics, Jim.
