At this point, the only reason I'm not anticipating Spring Breakers is Harmony Korine's name being attached. "Cautiously Pessimistic" is probably the best way to describe it. EDIT: poo poo, new page. Have a couple Oblivion posters that I don't believe have been posted yet. AndyP fucked around with this message at 10:48 on Feb 28, 2013 |

Dick Trauma posted:I liked the initial parts of the trailer but it looks like it very quickly turns into a standard shoot 'em up. That's the problem with what passes for sci fi sometimes: they try to establish a strange, alien setting and then quickly fill it up with the usual bullshit. I have to agree. Oblivion has an interesting (if not particularly original) setting, and I'd like it to be more than just "Pew pew pew, space bugs". Gotta say though, when I saw the trailer in theaters (I believe it was before Les Miserables) they played it right after the trailer to After Earth, and Oblivion does look better than that one. And I had to giggle a bit when I noticed that they didn't mention M. Night Shyamalan's name once in the After Earth trailer.

Eh, as long as the text itself isn't changed, I don't really have much of a problem with tie-in book covers. Drop the "Bella and Edward" crap, and those Wuthering Heights covers wouldn't be that bad. And let's be honest here, most reprints of classic books have terrible covers, the last one that I've looked at and thought "hey, that's pretty cool" was Penguin's most recent reprint of 1984.

Vagabundo posted:It looks like it's trying too hard and the shittiness of the first one that made it so endearingly crap will probably now be accompanied by knowing winks at the audience. Considering this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXOM16xwxCU was the first trailer, I think that's an accurate assessment.

Kush posted:Based on the trailer and this poster, they are really trying to make it seem like 'Drive' or some gritty drama with intense action scenes. Would you still recommend it on the catch that it's nothing like the marketing? Chichevache posted:Die Hard? Eh, can't be worse than the last few actual Die Hard movies.

Kush posted:Sure. I appreciated what the director was trying to do with the triptych form but the last act wasn't as compelling as it should have been. It is kind of heavy and slowburn, but at least it is that with great actors, tense scenes and nice cinematography. The score is pretty good too, it gives the film a really unique feel at times, with the sweet piano theme from the trailer appearing at certain moments. Cool. I've really been looking forward to this one, so just as long as it doesn't suck.

Slasherfan posted:Isn't that what happened in the real case that make it so bizarre, they where all found naked in the snow. According to Wiki, a few people were found in their underwear, but it's assumed their clothes were taken by the people who were still alive. Has anyone actually seen that movie? 'Cause I can see a decent horror movie being made out of the incident. On the subject of Ghibli, I've always loved the cover for Disney's release of Whisper of the Heart. Even though a scene like that doesn't actually happen in the film, it does a great job setting the tone for the movie. And it probably doesn't hurt that Whisper is my favorite Ghibli film.

There's a documentary called Not Quite Hollywood that's all about the "ozspolitation" movies of the 70s and 80s, and Tarantino is one of the major figures interviewed. He's so enthusiastic about these movies that it's almost adorable. He's like a puppy
