Yeah, it looks solid plus it's rated r? the song choice was pretty on the nose but then I remembered there are probably even younger people who haven't had the Cash "Hurt" or like, "Mad World" done to death and overexposed to them

I liked the trailer. Here's hoping they keep the scale intimate and do not involve any silver samurai mechas or eyelasershooting deadpools like in previous films

I hope there's another scene where he dreams about waking up next to Famke Janssen. That was one of the better scenes in The Wolverine.

I was initially pretty worried because of the rumors it was going to be completely based upon Old Man Logan, which is a steaming pile of crap, but this looks more "inspired by." Mathieson's cinematography looks great.

Mathieson's cinematography looks great. I mean, this looks about as based off of Old Man Logan as X2 was from the original Stryker comic story, or Civil War was from the CW comic. Even Days of Future Past was essentially just taking the general concept. Whenever there's a movie adapting a comic it's pretty much a given it's just using the names and broad stroke of the synopsis.

You gotta give Millar credit, he does have a good feel for that kind of thing that wouldn't be out of place in 2000 AD, like Red Skull wearing Captain America's torn costume like a bearskin. I appreciate his irreverence for beloved franchise characters. The problem is almost always that in every other category he is like a second rate Warren Ellis.

Logan looks good because it doesn't looks like a superhero movie.

Yeah Old Man Logan has a lot of terrible stuff, The Hulk stuff is probably the worst of it from memory, especially how the Banner clan came about. Which they can't do at all because they don't have the rights to the Hulk anyway, which is actually a really good thing.

They have the Fantastic Four rights. They could have done a Thing clan. If it were Miller it'd probably have Thing kill Reed and keep Sue as a battered housewife in an abusive relationship where she can't leave.

I remember at the time of DOFP I was surprised they didn't include the Franklin Richards character as a set-up for the Fantastic Four movie, but in retrospect probably for the best. One thing I do hope they keep from Old Man Logan is him not going by Wolverine or using his claws until finally getting pushed over the edge. I'd love to see Jackman do that scene. But he seems to be using his claws in scenes that seem pretty early in the movie.

Why even bother when you can make a movie for half the cost by turning it into a simple angry dad film. fatherboxx fucked around with this message at 18:32 on Oct 20, 2016 |

Yeah that trailer was sweet as hell. I don't know anything about the plot but Stephen Merchant as a weird albino mutant is some pretty inspired casting that makes me both excited and concerned. I've never seen him do anything dramatic before.

Early Doctor Strange reviews are in, praising the visuals and the music and Cumberbatch, while saying the humor falls pretty flat and otherwise it's the same bog-standard origin story we've seen so many times before.

I'm guessing that Logan will involve bits and pieces of Innocence Lost, Old Man Logan, and Death of Wolverine.

The closest I can think of is the one in the mansion fight in X2 ... which is then wrecked by the terrible immediate follow-up shot of him tossing the two dudes he stabbed behind him.

^^Yeah I just looked at that jump Wolverine does off the railing and it looks like [shot of him jumping off unsupported, before the wires go taut or he's going to land on a mat] + [shot of him in mid-air falling from another angle] and then [kind of a very quick, obscured shot where he *might* be landing a little too softly but it's hard to tell]. Well done when you don't show the whole jump but piece it together from multiple shots and angles. Instead of how they're usually shot, like Seth Rogen's big jump onto Gary Cole in Pineapple Express.Terrible Horse posted:Yeah what's with this, the XMen movies have always had lovely wirework for flying/jumping characters, and haven't improved in 15 years or whatever. The DC and Marvel movies show its perfectly possible to portray those types of superpowers believably now. Even the same wirework can look better with different editing choices or camera angles. Wirework will never look right if you show a lot of the jump because we can tell that the acceleration and deceleration look off and because the character is centered in a weird way around their hips. You have to work around it. Lobok fucked around with this message at 21:51 on Oct 20, 2016 |

The other thing about the mansion attack in X2 is that it's one of Ottman's very few legitimately good musical cues in all his scores for the X-Men movies.
