Hollismason posted:what even is just what no. quote:Ma is written by Scotty Landes (Comedy Central’s Workaholics) First thing I thought of when I read that after watching the trailer was that this is someone who was inspired by Jordan Peele and thought they could jump straight from comedy to horror also without realizing that it takes more talent than it does to write Workaholics. Teenage Fansub posted:Danny Boyle's new movie about a man who wakes up in a world with no Beatles, and takes advantage of it. I'm getting Invention of Lying or (coincidentally) Liar Liar vibes from this where the premise is amazing but the movie will push that aside for a by-the-numbers romcom. Also how much does this movie cost? Beatles licensing can't be cheap. LifeLynx fucked around with this message at 05:20 on Feb 14, 2019 |

I agree with you on the quips though, the ending zodiac joke was so bad and badly delivered I can't believe they put it in a trailer.

thrawn527 posted:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zRwBVYjUBOc It looks okay! Will Smith looks much better than expected. I think him being blue all the time would make him stand out much more when he's around real actors instead of a cartoon. His comedic timing was pretty good also. Jafar doesn't look or sound menacing enough, and I expected Will Smith to be the problem based on the teasers. I'm going to take my seven year old step-daughter to this and probably have a good time, even though I generally think the live action adaptations are heartless.

Megasabin posted:Great cast but that trailer fell flat for me. Didn't even crack a smile. Same. I like everyone involved though. The movie looks like deadpan comedy, but the trailer was cut in the same way comedy action movie trailers are. It's probably going to be good, but the trailer most likely does a bad job at representing the movie.

The downside of watching movie trailers on YouTube is that my feed is constantly full of those MovieTrailerClips and other channels that put up a grainy thumbnail with a re-host of the trailer, or call it a new trailer but it's actually all the teaser trailers glued together into one video, or put a spoiler in the thumbnail/title. Or worst of all, if there's leaked footage, put THAT up and call it a trailer. I've tried to hide them but it's no use.

At first I thought it was cool that Disney was taking a chance on its live action adaptions by moving away from its tried-and-true scene-by-scene recreations. But now I'm thinking: is the only reason they're willing to do this with Mulan because they're making it the genre of movie that does well in China?

JazzFlight posted:Speaking of, could there be like a rule that we don't post trailers from the aggregate channels? I actively seek out the trailers uploaded by the original studio channels themselves because these other channels seem to be click-baity leeches that either add watermarks or intros or post like a 30-second new clip on top of all of the previous trailers to make it seem like there's a new 4+ minute video. Wondering this as well. I guess the studios feel it's free advertising and it's not like they care about ad revenue from trailers when they're making tens of millions on the films through profits and tax loopholes, so they leave it alone? I hate them because they're the first place I usually see new trailers thanks to YouTube's algorithms, and if I watch any movie trailers I get the awful grainy thumbnail misleading clickbaity videos recommended to me everywhere.

I am enjoying the irony of the lifecycle superhero movies have had. People wanted superhero movies, so they got them. Then they wanted good ones, got those too. They wanted to see their heroes team up and fight each other, then that happened. Then people started complaining that they were tired of them, and why can't studios try something different? "No, not like that."

The MSJ posted:Submitted for this thread's approval... It's weird that "Young adult horror stories from the 90's rebooted as a movie where the stories are real and trying to kill kids" is a movie genre now. Goosebumps (which was actually entertaining), Scary Stories (which sucked except for the monster designs), and now Are You Afraid of the Dark, which looks like it's aimed toward the same age group as the show but not the adults who have the nostalgia for it. Which might be for the best.

feedmyleg posted:Why on earth is that movie asking me to empathize with anyone who chose to work at Fox News? The words and actions of every person in that movie should give me the same visceral reaction as Lithgow's makeup does. It's going to rile up the conservatives and Fox News viewers (including the king of Fox News viewers himself) when the movie makes bank and headlines. The first scene in the trailer tells me it's not going to make us try to empathize with anyone too too much.

AFewBricksShy posted:Link to said short story So the trailer didn't do much for me at all. It's spectacularly edited, but if you go on Netflix right now there's a few dozen movies with the basic premise of a monster terrorizing an Anywhere, USA style town. And usually it's a child or children as main characters with skeptical but cautious adults along for the ride and a tough but friendly town sheriff. Hell that's basically the premise of Stranger Things season 1, and we all know how that already took massive influence from other stories like it, so this is nothing new. But after reading that short story, I really want to see the movie, because holy poo poo it is a great story.

Going out and saying it'll probably be at least decent. I'm not thrilled on them moving it to Anywhere, USA and starring a bunch of kids, because the hostility of New York was important to the movie's aesthetic and this would be a very different script if Stranger Things Fever wasn't at an all-time high. But it looks fun despite all that. Me in the 90s would be pumped for this movie, so I can't be too cynical.

Groovelord Neato posted:Cutting back to Auschwitz with the tone the show has was a terrible choice. I said this in another thread as well. Its portrayal of the Holocaust was Saw-level exploitative torture-porn, not a stark reminder that the Nazis were capital E Evil. That stuff is mostly contained to the first two episodes, after which the show is fun.

BonoMan posted:Visually it looks great but even after the turn in the trailer I'm still not super pumped. The jokes aren't really landing for me and I'm sooo tired of the "stop looking at your screens!" nonsense. I mean that's just the loving world we live in. No putting that genie back in the bottle. From some scenes in the trailer, I think the end message is going to be "phone good, but only in moderation". The trailer is probably designed to appeal to the boomers and also kids who aren't jaded by boomer-think. It's working on me though, the movie looks good!

I'll watch it, not in theaters obviously.

Taintrunner posted:Written by Max Landis apparently so uh whelp Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency is one of my favorite shows of the 2010's and so it's even more sad that he's human garbage. Although, I almost missed this on Wikipedia when looking him up to remind myself exactly what he did: quote:Landis wrote a draft of the screenplay for Shadow in the Cloud (2020) before being removed from the project due to sexual assault allegations. Although the script was re-written by Roseanne Liang, he received credit per Writers Guild of America rules.[43][44] and quote:In January 2019, it was announced Chloë Grace Moretz had joined the cast of the film, with Roseanne Liang directing from a screenplay by Max Landis. Brian Kavanaugh-Jones, Fred Berger, Kelly McCormick and Tom Hern would serve as producers under their Automatik and Four Knights Film banner, respectively.[3] In April 2019, Moretz announced the script had been re-written several times following Landis's sexual assault allegations.[4] Landis was also removed as a producer on the film, with Liang re-writing the film, however, due to Writers Guild of America rules, Landis receives credit for the script.[5][6][7] That same month, Nick Robinson joined the cast of the film. Back on board with this movie

BonoMan posted:Yeah I wish it didn't really go for the "in my past life..." angle. Was kinda hoping for a more Falling Down approach (but only the baddies get it). If it had to go for that twist, then for once in a piece of media I'd like if there was no unpaid-debt stuff, just a reason for a nobody to be a bad-rear end. Bob Odenkirk and the amazing-looking action sequences are going to carry even the cliched story, I just wish it wasn't cliched.
