quote:When Sony Pictures Entertainment decided to make a movie focusing on the death and dementia professional football players have endured from repeated hits to the head — and the N.F.L.’s efforts toward a cover-up — it signed Will Smith to star as one of the first scientists to disclose the problem. It named the film bluntly, “Concussion.” http://www.nytimes.com/2015/09/02/s...ref=sports&_r=0 Can't say any of this is surprising. Sadly.

Yeah, I remember being super bummed out when I heard about this, but it's weird because I wonder what the specific changes were. I mean it says it's framed as more of a whistle-blower story than a condemnation of football or the league, but the trailer sure did make the NFL look bad and like the primary antagonist and afterwards everyone was like "Oh poo poo, the NFL must not be so happy about this". I guess they looked even worse?

I'm just guessing here, but the idea is gross systematic negligence by the organization with regard to research done by Omalu and others for many years, consistently and purposefully ignored to maintain reputation and financial gain. When the focus shifts to one researcher's race against the clock to get the word out about a new disease and his efforts to convince a few influential people of the validity of his work...that shifts the film's possible indictment, muzzles the impact, and undermines the severity of the findings (which are staggering in implication, culture-wide). This could turn out to be wrong, of course and the film might have teeth in the end, but the NFL is on damage control right now and doing their best to money out of it retroactively.

I love the tale of Krampus and Venture Bros did it great. However, that trailer kind of sucks for several reasons. The copy is way too long and goes from uppercase to lowercase and the font they used sucks, the stop down for the box has virtually no payoff, the monster doesn't really get shown but two other monsters do? It needs to be funnier or scarier, it's walking a tight rope in the middle of the road. Just my thoughts, strictly from a producer's perspective. Plus why is this kid crying about his letter? Why does throwing the letter in the air summon Krampus to come punish the wicked? It's confusing and bad in my opinion.

I think it's gonna have quite a bit more comedy than it lets on, albeit dark comedy. So I think Scott actually might be on point.

It's weird how the trailer starts out looking like a comedy, especially with Adam Scott and David Koechner, and then gets super serious. I feel like the actual movie might be more comedy than horror.

I wonder if he ever feels like calling it quits when he watches advertisements like that. Imagine pouring your heart and soul into a film like The Tree of Life, and then being confronted by a legacy of filmmakers inspired by your work churning out inane shoe, and car, and loving pokemon commercials.

second-hand smegma posted:They're all gonna laugh at you, bro Okay. I tried watching Tree of Life and it wasn't very good but that's just my opinion. I thought it was empty, soulless, devoid of any kind of meaning. It was pretentious, in the sense that it pretended to be a smart movie but was actually just another movie about a bad relationship between father and son, in the most boringly cliché way possible. If some people like it and think it's brilliant, good for them. I can't loving see why though.

I liked the shot of the playing children's shadows from a really weird angle where I guess he hung a camera and shot through his legs? But otherwise I agreed with the nutter a few seats from me who polished off a meal deal and then left an hour and a half in.

As a fan of both pokemon and Malick I appreciate this, and I'm going to be very disappointed if this commercial is not a literal depiction of how the game works, including 3D projections and a packed city square cheering for me when I catch Mewtwo.

An R-rated stop-motion comedy written by Zeb Wells with an amazing voice cast? I'm tentatively down. Trailer is kinda eh, but I'm not sure if it'll be entirely representative- if nothing else, the animation is really nice.
