Madkal posted:Just a reminder that Cassandra Cain (the Asian girl in the poster) is supposed to be a highly trained martial arts assassin who can go toe to toe with Batman. I am sure everyone figured that out from the posters. The Wikipedia has this plot synopsis quote:Since the events of Suicide Squad, Harley Quinn has left the Joker. When Roman Sionis aka Black Mask, a narcissistic crime lord, places a hit on a young girl named Cassandra Cain, Gotham City turns upside down looking for her. Harley joins forces with Black Canary, Huntress, and Renee Montoya to protect the girl and to take Sionis down. So I assumed that was going to be the twist. Those four team up to save the helpless little girl(each with their own secret motivations of course), and then twist, she's Cassandra loving Cain, and then they aren't trying to save her so much as trying to manage a mute super murderer. But then I watched the trailer and clearly that's not what happens. So I'm back to having no idea what the movie is about and now also wondering why they called that character Cassandra Cain

The trailer looks pretty serious. I hate to be a sourpuss but I just don't give two shits about Ghostbusters anymore.

It's weird because like "The Ghostbusters franchised out and here's a new team in a new city" seems like the easiest thing in the world to do.

The way the release/ad campaigns have synced up, it means I've gotten a lot of Finn Wolfhard over the last three years.

They're also going for like similar nostalgia vibes which this also seems to be going for. Poor boy's getting typecast as the viewer in the 80s. You hate to see it.

Honestly, if he did comedy, he could probably fill the Michael Cera niche really well. Kid's got loving amazing comic timing in the first IT movie.

Then the movie would be pasted up as another Ghostbusters 2016 and it would land like a bag of cold sick. Mustached5thGrader, did you ever see the trailer for the original Ghostbusters? There were drat few jokes in it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pIQWaTUrCes

Sony is playing it safe by removing female ghosbusters, comedy, and of course ghosts to ensure a Fresh score on RT and box office success.

I'd assume that trailer is very limited in what it shows. I get a 'nothing past the first half hour of pre-plot setup' vibe from it.

Like, I can picture them squeezing some kind of humor out of the premise but I'm certainly not expecting Harold Ramis and Bill Murray in their prime levels of comedy. But then who could top or even match that?

You can easily have them at that point (screwing around, not being successful) near the end of act 1. 30-45 minutes sounds pretty reasonable.

But they pretty obviously won't because they want to savor every tiny reveal and thirty minutes isn't enough time if you're going to do that.

Yeah, the way it was showing them blowing up more of the town then a ghost made it look like the inevitable first-try screwup when the kids take it out on their own before the big returning stars arrive in town.

While that's kind of goofy its not like they try to hide the height difference in the movie. Unlike say, anything with Tom Cruise.

Its weird that they did that because he doesn't really come across as this huge tall guy in the movie, Ray Romano is still taller than him in their scenes together.

Vagabundo posted:Forget his shoes, what the hell is going on with the proportions of his entire lower body? He's just wearing a long coat, he'd probably look normal if it was shorter. I'm confused why they bothered putting De Niro in lifts in the first place. Yeah, I know the real guy was taller but who cares? It's not like Sheeran was such a well-known public figure to the point where people would be taken out of the movie if he wasn't the right height. But I guess they did it for the same reason they gave him blue eyes.
