All I know is that the Transformer movie will be a failure if "The Touch" doesn't play when Unicron is defeated.

This was probably the least bad of all the trailers for this and it still looks like dogshit. At least DMX's estate is getting a check I guess. Wasn't there supposed to be another movie between this and Bumblebee as part of the series reboot? Seems like there's some connective tissue missing here.

When did CinemaCon become a huge event that major films showcase stuff at? Is this recent? I feel like every anticipated movie coming out this year has a presence there and is showing stuff off.

JazzFlight posted:Anyone know why it says "A Story a Century in the Making?" This year is Disney's 100th anniversary. "Disney Magic" is wishing on a star. Therefore this is the movie about "Disney Magic" which has been around for 100 years. Just marketing to tie into the anniversary.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f9BwB3SBPOg Trailer for the Hunger Games prequel, The Ballad of Songbirds & Snakes. The story takes place 60 years before the original books/movies and is about young Coriolanus Snow (Donald Sutherland's character) and how he took the first steps in his rise to power. The trailer actually gives away quite a bit of the story, especially how the actual Hunger Games ends like halfway through the story.

The sequel to bumblebee is, uh, way bigger in scale than I expected. i wonder how much of it is based on notes from whatever sequel to the last knight they didn't do, but earth was unicron in that one?? aren't these still in the same continuity?? michelle yeoh bird robot??

Temple of Doom is a terrific model for a prequel. It gives the character a proper arc, it expands his world without everything having to be a direct tie-in into Raiders, and it feels like Just Another Adventure. It's the exact opposite approach of Solo. The film has its problems, but it avoids most prequel issues. Even Last Crusade, which leans too hard into giving an unnecessary origin story for a bunch of nonsense, also couched it all in terrific pathos. The only issue with Doom as a prequel is that nobody paid attention to the exact date of Raiders, so when the date card comes up it doesn't register as a prequel. feedmyleg fucked around with this message at 17:45 on Apr 30, 2023 |

The Good the Bad the Ugly is basically pure poetry in Western form. Easily my favorite Western.

Everyone who loves and appreciates Temple of Doom is my brother. Speaking of great prequels, we had Rogue One which was a great Star War (and I would argue The Best Star War), and this very year we got Andor as a prequel to the prequel and that is *unarguably* the greatest think to have ever happened to the franchise.

Samovar posted:Que https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dollars_Trilogy#Development quote:The Good, the Bad and the Ugly is considered a prequel,[4] since it depicts Eastwood's character gradually acquiring the clothing he wears throughout the first two films and because it takes place during the American Civil War (1861–1865), whereas the other two films feature comparatively more modern firearms and other props. EDIT: Woah, I didn't realize they were completely in reverse order https://screenrant.com/dollars-trilogy-movies-order-connections-explained/ quote:Given its expansive reliance and commentary on the American Civil War, The Good, The Bad and The Ugly is chronologically the earliest movie, despite being produced last. Leone implemented the infamous American conflict into his film in order to deliver some stark commentary against the brutality of war, primarily using Eastwood's character. In terms of events, Blondie slowly picks up the pieces of his iconic outfit throughout before finally donning the whole get-up in the ending of Clint Eastwood's movie.

So, best watched in release order or chronological order? I haven't seen those films since I was a kid an have a hankering for some old school westerns.

The production value gets exponentially better with every one, I’d watch in release order.
|
# ? May 1, 2023 08:16 |

Continuity doesn’t particularly matter that much between the films, so order make a huge difference narratively. The above posters point about production quality is good though.

Thanks. It might seem like a daft question, as release order is always the default. But always nice to check if it's one of those situations where rejigging things makes it better.

But also Eastwood's character has different names/nicknames throughout the trilogy. And there's two Lee Van Cleefs.
