And to complete the visual genius.. a Wolverine movie

http://imdb.com/title/tt0458525/

magnum #92.1 magnumOG 2001

are you serious? the first one was horendous and they are making part 2 wow

flyingfree1125 #92.1.1 flyingfree1125OG 2001

i know at first i thought it was a joke but then i looked it up and.. theyre crankin out another cinematic adventure for us to come along on

deanh77 #92.2 deanh77Founder

haha. I actually think this looks sweet. I guess Galactus is in this one as well?

magnum #92.2.1 magnumOG 2001

Plot Outline: The Fantastic Four learn that they aren't the only super-powered beings in the universe when they square off against the power Silver Surfer and the planet-eating Galactus.

iwz #92.2.1.1 iwz

Oh man, Galactus could be really cool. :) But it'll probably be lame. :(

But I have hope! :)

magnum magnumOG 2001

they are getting the fat chick who used to be in my profile picture to play him

silver surfer is galactus's scout. he finds tasty planets for him.

magnum magnumOG 2001

yeah i know who he is, i was just pasting that from imdb sucka!

deanh77 deanh77Founder

chill out. I was posting for the benefit of others.

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

Hahaha! I never knew that (not that I ever followed fantastic four). I wonder if he picks hot planets when galactus wants something spicy and forest-y planets when he's in the mood for a salad.

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

it wouldn't really be like a salad though... more like a rock with a thin layer of moss on it

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

What if it's a big rain forest planet and the center was like a big crouton?

iwz iwz

Mmmmmm, I'd eat it.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

LOL, you guys. . .

fivezero #92.2.2 fivezeroOG 2003

I totally think Michael Clark Duncan should be Galactis. Or Jorge Garcia.

ilikebirds #92.3 ilikebirdsOG 2002

FF1 wasn't that bad. jessica albe was good looking

But how are they going to do Galaactus? The guy is 3brirrion trimes the size of earth...
unless he's in shrink mode the whole time.

C
#92.3.1 chuggieOG 2003

yeah but they can cgi almost anything in movies these days, except maybe a Jessica Alba who can act.

fivezero #91 fivezeroOG 2003

happened upon this trailer and it looks really insane. 99% of you won't ever see this, but i like the style. quite stylish. chaotic. interesting cast.

I really wanna see Happy Feet, just because it looks cute http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0366548/

malibu #89.1 malibuOG 2001

i will definetely be bringing all the little kids to see this. it looks so awesome.

originalsnob #88 originalsnobOG 2004

SQUEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEAL PAUL REUBENS!!!
Couldn't do it without the original =)

theremin #88.1 thereminOG 2002

Ut oh. Someone's not using the Reply button. Shame. haha But yes, should be interesting to see. And, if they didn't use Pee Wee for the Pee Wee movie, that'd be quite a mistake from the start. Who else could be scary, yet comedic at the same time? If someone else was used, it'd throw off the whole branding.

theremin #87 thereminOG 2002

Heard about the new Pee Wee? http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0837156/

fivezero #86 fivezeroOG 2003

There's an IRON MAN movie in the pipeline. Guess who's playing Tony Stark!

superhero #85.1.1.1 superheroOG 2004

you are the worst kind of bragger ... ridiculous

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

I'm sorry! I just got so excited when I watched the preview..and really bummed out because I'm in NJ now and not there.

magnum #85.2 magnumOG 2001

nooooo the poor aston martin

thefunkyfresh #84 thefunkyfreshFounder

i'm def gonna see this:

School for Scoundrels

http://www.apple.com/trailers/weinstein/schoolforscoundrels/trailer2/

fivezero #84.1 fivezeroOG 2003

oh, wow. i've never heard of it. looks really funny.

thefunkyfresh #83 thefunkyfreshFounder

i dont know why they think this concept warrants a movie:

teenage mutant ninja turtles
http://www.apple.com/trailers/wb/teenagemutantninjaturtles/tmnt_medium.html

B
#83.1 brothermanOG 2004

I see this doing well in theaters.

thefunkyfresh #83.1.1 thefunkyfreshFounder

yeah i guess a lot of people between 20 and 30 will go see this

B
#83.1.1.1 brothermanOG 2004

Little kids will like it too.

M
#83.1.1.2 monsterEst. 2006

Matt... just guessing... your going to go see it... ;-)

fivezero #83.2 fivezeroOG 2003

hm. they went all the way back to the gritty comic style. i might wanna see this.

thatdarngirl #83.3 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Weeird..I just made Ben watch the first 15 minutes of the original TMNT movie last night.

B
#83.3.1 brothermanOG 2004

I was in 5th or 6th grade when that came out. Good times!

thefunkyfresh #82 thefunkyfreshFounder

this looks really funny, but possibly has some "demo" elements that will render it unwatchable:

Tenacious D in the Pick of Destiny
http://www.apple.com/trailers/newline/tenaciousdinthepickofdestiny/medium.html

web-toedchloe #82.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

I saw a preview for that and thought it was questionably demo. It's rated R anyway, right?

thefunkyfresh #82.1.1 thefunkyfreshFounder

says not yet rated

web-toedchloe #82.1.1.1 web-toedchloeOG 2001

Then I guess I must have dreamed it.

forrestina #81 forrestinaOG 2002
deanh77 #81.1 deanh77Founder

sounds like they one they had in that credit-card commercial where he's making a movie.

forrestina #81.1.1 forrestinaOG 2002

oh i didn't make that connection. possibly!

fivezero #81.2 fivezeroOG 2003

interesting. i like wes anderson, top to the bottom. his writing, casting, and directing are very strong. his set designs are the best i've seen so far. he can do no wrong, when it comes to BV.

iwz #80 iwz

This looks like it could be pretty funny
http://www.apple.com/trailers/sony_pictures/strangerthanfiction/

deanh77 #80.1 deanh77Founder

cool idea. I like it.

fivezero #80.2 fivezeroOG 2003

this has been in the can since last year. they figured they'd hold onto it and ride the success of the Ballad of Ricky Bobby, then follow up with Will doing a stranger, more obscure little flick. great cast. Emma Thompson is so cool. Maggie G. Queen. i'm signed up.

thefunkyfresh #80.3 thefunkyfreshFounder

heard about this about a year ago, looks really funny

fivezero #79 fivezeroOG 2003
deanh77 #79.1 deanh77Founder

nice. I was worried about this one, but it sounds good.

iwz #78 iwz

Here is Pixar's next movie after cars:

http://www.apple.com/trailers/disney/ratatouille/

malibu #77 malibuOG 2001

so i hear there is supposed to be a titanic II coming out. and leonardo dicaprio is in it. my sister told me she saw a preview for it but couldnt describe it to my for lack of horrible adjectives. and that i needed to find a trailer for it, but i cant find one anywhere. help?

M

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vD4OnHCRd_4

This is the only thing I found.... I'm kinda good at finding stuff. :-)

I think I'd like this more that the first one! ;-p

D
#77.1.1 dgiaimoOG 2003

It's pretty obvious that that's a fake compiled together from pieces of different films that DiCaprio has been in.

malibu #77.1.1.1 malibuOG 2001

yeah like i've found those but my sister saw one in a movie theater like it's actually coming out. and that's the real preview i wanna see but i just cant find it anywhere.

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder

there's nothing on imdb about it so i kinda doubt it

thefunkyfresh thefunkyfreshFounder
juicymango juicymangoOG 2003

did she tell you about this on APril Fool's day?

malibu malibuOG 2001

no. she said she really saw it in a theater and such. and it's not like they're playing youtube creations there. i'll have to press for more info.

B
#77.2 brothermanOG 2004

barf...

A
#77.2.1 alexOG 2001

i think i know what she is alking about, but i don"t think that it is a sequel to the titanic. she is probably thinking of that movie about the cruise ship that gets capsized. i think it would be pretty tough to do a second titanic, especially with leonardo in it; i mean unless they brought him back to life or something. or if he just played a corpse. anyway the movie looks terrible anyway.

fivezero #76 fivezeroOG 2003

ok, they're marketing this like a feel good romantic comedy. i can't imagine these actors would sign up for something so--obvious. i'm thinking this might be better than it initially looks. i'll see it just for jude law and jack black. wait, imagine THAT comedy team up. anyway, neat trailer.

http://playlist.yahoo.com/makeplaylist.dll?id=1433788&sdm=web&qtw=480&qth=300

iwz #76.1 iwz

haha mikayla is totally gonna make me go see this with her.

fivezero #76.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

you'll probably like it

iwz #76.1.1.1 iwz

i think i will

thefunkyfresh #76.2 thefunkyfreshFounder

wow... this looks HORRIBLE

fivezero #76.2.1 fivezeroOG 2003

looking back. you're probably right

thefunkyfresh #76.2.1.1 thefunkyfreshFounder

lol... it looks like the kind of movie my gf is going to love though, so i will probably end up seeing it

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

oh, god save you. She has horrible taste in movies, most of the time.

juicymango #76.3 juicymangoOG 2003

ugh ugh.. first of all i can't stand jude law, the way he talks is infuriating.. second of all, why do they keep showing camron diaz and jude law kissing but they don't show jack black and kate winslet kissing? What, are they not good looking enough to kiss in the preview?!?!? haha

i love kate winslet what is she doing

forrestina #75 forrestinaOG 2002

girls, i don't care how much you like christian bale do NOT see the new world. this movie was basically one long voice over. terrible!

fivezero #75.1 fivezeroOG 2003

i didn't catch this. i still wanna see it. Terrence Malick takes self-indulgence to a new level, but still i can't even help myself. A Thin Red Line was amazing. i can't NOT see it.

thefunkyfresh #74 thefunkyfreshFounder
fivezero #74.1 fivezeroOG 2003

Yeah, really. No Vin Diesel? No Paul Walker? NO REASON TO WATCH THIS!

flomojopoanode #74.1.1 flomojopoanodeFounder

actually, those were my reasons not to watch the first ones...

thefunkyfresh #74.1.1.1 thefunkyfreshFounder

the first one wasn't all that bad despite paul walker

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

I concur. I didn't say they** were bad, but Paul Walker was a good reason NOT to want to watch.

**I think it's important to note that I'm refer to the first and second movies, and not to Vin or Paul.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

weiner. i like vin diesel and paul walker. sue me.

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

seriously!? You like PAUL WALKER? Do you think he's a good actor? I think he seems like a cool guy. Surfer usually seem pretty cool. But he is not a good actor...though he's much better in "into the blue". Maybe because he plays a surfer-like dude.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

he's always been . . . adequate. and he's got a good look.

coreyfeldman coreyfeldmanOG 2003

"got a good look" = you think he is hot = ghey

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 coreyfeldman

yeah, i definitely saw this coming. you can HAVE this one.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

b's got good taste...dont question the man....lol

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

you, miss, are correct

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder fivezero

i THOUGHT he had good taste...
(emphasis on the fact that this is PAST TENSE)

jk, jk. I'm just surprised that you'd like him despite his lack of skills. You seem to be almost a connoisseur of movie and actor knowledge. I thought you-of all people-would hate him the most. *shrug*

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 flomojopoanode

i am prone to lapses.

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder fivezero

lol, everyone is entitled to their lapses/mistakes/whatever. :)

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 flomojopoanode

batman. forever.

fivezero #73 fivezeroOG 2003

Tell me. What movie is this picture from? A few extra points if you tell me what happened to his nose.

coreyfeldman #72 coreyfeldmanOG 2003

I saw ice age 2 this weekend, and there was a preview for a SIMPSONS MOVIE, don't know much about it. it will be interesting to see how they roll the simpsons into a 2 hour flick.

fivezero #72.1 fivezeroOG 2003

Word is: it will start like a regular Simpsons episode, but run for 90 minutes. Lots of gags, lots of guest stars, self referential humor. watch.

thefunkyfresh #72.2 thefunkyfreshFounder

saw that same preview, really didn't tell much about the movie, will probably be kinda funny

fivezero #71 fivezeroOG 2003

Mission Impossible 3. Shaping up. J.J. Abrams talks about the movie and a little bit about Lost and the finale of Alias. I like this interview.
http://www.infocusmag.com/06april/abramsuncut.htm

flomojopoanode #70 flomojopoanodeFounder

Didn't watch any previews...but this is a classic Marvel Character whose movie we probably will never see.

http://www.sonypictures.com/movies/ghostrider/index.html

flomojopoanode #69 flomojopoanodeFounder

I've only watched 25 minutes of "Into the Blue" starring Jessica Alba, and the next "Keanu", Paul Walker (no, it's what you think--it's definitely not a compliment).

Anyways, as much as I think Paul Walker is annoying......I want to be him...at least the character he plays in "Into the Blue".

What I'm really getting at is: I don't know if this movie is good or not....but Jessica Alba is so gorgeous.

socalgal #69.1 socalgalOG 2003

one BIG difference between PW and Keanu....paul is HOT a thousand times over keanu....oh and he surfs.

flomojopoanode #69.1.1 flomojopoanodeFounder

He is a more handsome man, but he SOUNDS just as stupid. And, Keanu may surf, as well.

socalgal #69.1.1.1 socalgalOG 2003

wellllll thats the way majority of surfer/socal boys sound. LOL you'll see when you get out here. ;)

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

I think Paul Walker is hot. The combo of him and Vin Diesel is why I could watch the Fast and the Furious over and over. And over.

juicymango #69.1.2 juicymangoOG 2003

hmm I prefer Keanu, hehe :) But I never ever thought he was hot before I think.. that surfing/skydiving movie .. and the Matrix of course. Neo = hott

fivezero #69.1.2.1 fivezeroOG 2003

I was gonna bring this out. Point Break was an awesome, diesel flick. Believe it or not Busey and Swayze complimented Reeves perfectly. Well done flick.

D
#69.2 dgiaimoOG 2003

Any movie with Jessica Alba in a bikini is, by definition, a good movie.

flomojopoanode #69.2.1 flomojopoanodeFounder

i vow to see all non-r-rated movies with her in it

juicymango #69.3 juicymangoOG 2003

Alba is really pretty, Paul Walker is annoying

flomojopoanode #69.3.1 flomojopoanodeFounder

agreed

forrestina #69.3.2 forrestinaOG 2002

they are equally as dumb. she's just easier on the eyes.

fivezero #69.3.2.1 fivezeroOG 2003

choo n'deed

flomojopoanode #69.3.2.2 flomojopoanodeFounder

who's listening to her, though, seriously? I don't know if she's said anything. I've been too fixated on her beauty.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

same goes with paul walker.

i dont lke jessica alba tho. i dont find her *hot*

D
dgiaimoOG 2003

Really? I think Jessica Alba is one of the most beautiful actresses I've seen in a while.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

well in my opinion she's not. she's just blah....PLUS she deny's being a latin girl. i read in one interview where she was playing down being latin and was acting like a total snob and i guess that jsut did it for me.....not pretty.

just like eva longoria...i dont think she's good looking at all

flomojopoanode flomojopoanodeFounder

there's another latin chick you hate, because of man-hands, right? that one from hitch, right?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Eva Mendes. Good looking. For sure.

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

UGH yeah....eva mendes. before she was cute, not HOT but kinda cool cause you just didnt get her nad seeing her man hands on TV totally made me dislike her.

iwz iwz

so, you're saying her personality makes her "blah", eh?

how superficial can you be?? you need to focus more on physical beauty!

socalgal socalgalOG 2003

hahaha i usually do but she just bugs. LOL

like jessica simpson, i think she's HOT....dumbest, lamest chick ever BUT she's hot.

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004

I REMEMBER THIS that's why I didn't like her for a long time...she was like she's not really trying to represent for latinas blah blah SHUT IT!
I think recently she changed her tune after realizing that's how America views her como una Latina ante que nada...then in this interview w/ Jay Leno she was all talking about being raised in a loud Mexican household ('cause French + Mexican) with lotz of kids and her grandmother. Also she talked about this role she had on 90210 that she played the "typical latina" jovencita embarazada. So I've decided she's okay w/ me for now.

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

Who was she on 90210!?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003 thatdarngirl

Dude, she was DYLAN!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002 fivezero

Hooootttiiie!

originalsnob originalsnobOG 2004 thatdarngirl

Some episode back in the day, she played a poor girl from the rough side of town.

fivezero #68 fivezeroOG 2003

i don't care how insane Tom Cruise is -- i'm seeing this. it was directed by J.J. Abrams. creator of Alias and Lost. we'll see how well he translates from doing above average tv to doing huge over the top action films. i'm thinking it'll be pretty all right.

fivezero #67 fivezeroOG 2003

Master of Space and Time by Rudy Rucker http://tinyurl.com/dnvsx is being made into a movie! I never read the book, but I've been wanting to read some of his stuff. He's a computer scientist, mathematician, humorist type. The previews and reviews I've read are awesome. ANYWAY, this is not the book forum!

This is being made into a movie by one of my favorite directors Michel Gondry. His collection of videos are on DVD. Priceless. I mean that.

This is one to look forward too. No question everyone will be out to see this movie when it debuts.

Another pretty cool note is that Jack Black is set to star. That sounds great to me. Anyone acting with him can't help but be inspired by his energy. He's just crazy.

Anyway, this should be a treat. Read the first four or so pages of the book on the Amazon page. It's wacky fun.

deanh77 #67.1 deanh77Founder

I've read a lot of his stuff. I read this a year ago when I read a Jack Black interview where he said he was reading it since they wanted him to be in a movie version of it.

it's pretty good. pretty classic Rudy Rucker. the beginning is amazing.

fivezero #67.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

while writing this i totally forgot what spurred this post to begin with! danny clowes is set to write the screen play, which is a weird decision. he's a comic book writer. s'done some underground type stuff. i don't know if that's a good fit, but i guess we'll see. this ones been in the chute for a long while--can't wait to finally see it.

deanh77 #67.2 deanh77Founder

I'm pretty excited to see this movie as well.

fivezero #67.3 fivezeroOG 2003

heres a light example of some of the weird stuff that michel gondry is capable of. http://www.partizan.us/musicvideos/mg/kanye.html

originalsnob #66 originalsnobOG 2004

Just saw a commercial for this movie When a Stranger Calls... uses your average run of the mill suspense tactics but, it looked good to me. I like to be scared outta my seat every so often.

juicymango #66.1 juicymangoOG 2003

OH YEAH this is cool, it's a remake of the original right? looks awesome. The original was mad scary.

ok4now #66.1.1 ok4nowOG 2002

u guys r sick

originalsnob #66.1.1.1 originalsnobOG 2004

I have no choice it starts this Friday, so I must see this Saturday after service.

originalsnob #65 originalsnobOG 2004

Little Manhattan, saw it last weekend highly recommend it. In other news, heard Philip Seymour Hoffman is getting best actor buzz for his portrayal of Truman Capote in Capote

malibu #65.1 malibuOG 2001

i never really got what capote was about. i know its the author capote. but why was he so experimental or crazy or dangerous? what did he write. im lost.

originalsnob #65.1.1 originalsnobOG 2004

I think the film answers a few of those questions but, it's focused mainly on the relationship he develops w/the man that inspired In Cold Blood.

malibu #65.1.1.1 malibuOG 2001

so that's the book he's famous for? in cold blood. all right. anyone know what it was about? its pointless to see the inspiration if you have no idea of the influence he has.

fivezero #65.2 fivezeroOG 2003

i met PSH! he was mad cool!

originalsnob #65.2.1 originalsnobOG 2004

60 Mins did an interview w/ him Sunday...he's such cool people.

thatdarngirl #64 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Jarhead. Don't know why I'm drawn to war movies (might be my class on Vietnam). Too bad it's R and probably super violent.

fivezero #64.1 fivezeroOG 2003

This is a flick by one of my fave directors, Sam Mendes. He did American Beauty and Road to Perdition. The first is an instant classic, to me. It's said that most of the soundtrack is Nirvana songs. Whewww. And Jake Gyllenhaal and Chris Cooper, among several others. The horror, the horroR. . .

originalsnob #63 originalsnobOG 2004

Two due out this weekend, I'd really like to see them both:
The Prize Winner of Defiance Ohio w/ Julianne Moore
Into The Blue w/ Paul Walker & Jessica Alba

originalsnob #62 originalsnobOG 2004

Proof, due out September 16th, stars Gwyneth Paltrow, Anthony Hopkins, and Jake Gyllenhaal. Looks good, think I'll see it. http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0377107

forrestina #62.2 forrestinaOG 2002

concept was nice. very beautiful mind esque. i think it was executed poorly. love gwyenth, but she was terribly miscast in this role.

fivezero #61 fivezeroOG 2003

Clooney Directs Again! this time in an independant black and white film taking place in the mcarthy era, dealing with communism and such. unfamiliar subject matter for me. should be enlightening and entertaining. great cast too.
http://movies.yahoo.com/feature/goodnightandgoodluck.html

fivezero #60 fivezeroOG 2003

ooh ooh ooh. didn't see THIS one coming. a flick with a nearly unrecognizable claire danes, a scrubby, hilarious jason shwartzman and a really classy, unfunny steve martin. wow, this flick has captured me. check out the trailer for ShopGirl
http://www.apple.com/trailers/touchstone/shop_girl/trailer_large.html

superhero #60.1 superheroOG 2004

i read this book ... really strange. very short. you could read it in an hour.

forrestina #60.2 forrestinaOG 2002

i really enjoyed this movie. i'm going to read steve martin's books for sure now.

fivezero #59 fivezeroOG 2003

this flick looks great. al and mathew are pretty much a sure bet. and jeremy piven? so hot right now. i'm liking the directing style too. very guy ritchie meets peter berg meets tony scott.

oh, no doubt we'll have issues with the rating, but DANG is this a cool trailer or what?. it's for a movie called the Lord of War, with Cage, Leto and Hawke.

Since Mean Girls & The Notebook I'm a HUGE Rachel McAdams fan. She's amazing, she's the greatest Rachel EVER!!!
She's uber talented, gorgeous, and NOT a bit concieted. People that work with her are always saying how kind, genuine, and great to work with she is.
Anyhow Wes Craven's Red Eye (PG-13), I'm hoping it's just a thriller with no extra suprises :/

socalgal #57.1 socalgalOG 2003

she was in mean girls? i loved her in the notebook.

originalsnob #57.2 originalsnobOG 2004

RED EYE so awesome! Saw it, liked it, would definately see it again. Rachel rocked, as promised... this Cillian fellow, very gritty*.

good stuff

iwz #57.2.1 iwz

So what was the general plot? The trailers and commercials give almost no hints.

specialk #57.2.1.1 specialkOG 2003

I read the spoiler Ian, if you want me to give you the whole rundown. But basically, she gets on a plane and meets a guy who she thinks is nice, and turns out to not be, and there's an assasination plot, and her dad is involved, and all sorts of goodies.

iwz iwz

does he wear a scarecrow mask and spray hallucinogens at her?

specialk specialkOG 2003

No dear, that's Batman. But that's a good storyline too, from what I hear. Hahaha.

thatdarngirl #57.2.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

My little sister saw it and was really disappointed.

web-toedchloe #57.3 web-toedchloeOG 2001

I just saw that this weekend. I'm not really into thrillers, but it was fun for a movie party.

originalsnob #56 originalsnobOG 2004

The Island w/ Scarlett Johanson looks interesting. The premise seems vaguely reminiscent of The 6th Day w/ Arnold Schwartzenegger. Hmmmm....

tesoro #56.1 tesoroOG 2001

i just saw my first movie w/ her in it..."In Good Company". I really liked it.

thatdarngirl #56.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I'm very interested in seeing this, I love dystopia type stuff. I was afraid it was going to be R.

malibu #55 malibuOG 2001

for everyone who read the lion the witch and the wardrobe. and all the fabulous tales about the chronicles of narnia. looks amazing. kinda how i had hoped they were going to make charlie and the chocolate factory.

thatdarngirl #55.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Okay, so I never read these at all..but the movie looks absolutely stunning.

juicymango #55.2 juicymangoOG 2003

I saw this trailer before Star Wars and I nearly peed my pants. I loved these books when I was little.

deanh77 #55.2.1 deanh77Founder

ditto. but there's like 7 books. I wonder how they're gonna handle that. I think my favorite was the one about the origin of Narnia, the last one, with the magic hoop bracelets and the pool-portals

juicymango #55.2.1.1 juicymangoOG 2003

yeah i don't think I read all of them, and I don't really remember too much but I just remember I loved them lol

fivezero #54 fivezeroOG 2003

Mirror Mask. I'm thinking I might see this. It's a dreamy, fantastical movie from Jim Henson's crew and Neil Gaiman. Reminds me a lot of Labrynth and...Neverending Story and Legend. Theres a clip that haunted the crap out of me and here it is: http://movies.aol.com/movie_exclusive_mirrormask_movie_clip bottom left. The music is a re-do of an old Carpenters song, written by the late, great Burt Bacharach. Awesome audio/visuals. Reminds me of a TOOL or NIN video, but for kiddies. Watch, please.

juicymango #54.1 juicymangoOG 2003

whoah

fivezero #54.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

that's what i said

originalsnob #54.2 originalsnobOG 2004

Burt Bacharach YESSSSSSSSSSSSSSsssssssssssssssssss

juicymango #54.3 juicymangoOG 2003

Neverending Story = my all time favorite movie, of all time. I think it would be hawt if they did actually GOOD sequels to that movie. Or prequels. I want to know more about Atreyu and about Falcor and about that wolf monster thing, that would be hawt.

fivezero #54.3.1 fivezeroOG 2003

There's a new Cameron Crowe film coming out. It's got some pretty people in it. There's a promotional one-sheet that was released. I love the picture. It really grabs me. Awesome stuff. Check it out.

thatdarngirl #52.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Interesting..this brings up a page with first a Star Wars blaster advertisement with Liam Neesan in the background? Then an article on who's cuter- Orlando Bloom or Keirsten Dunst. Orlando..obviously.

Family Guy direct to DVD movie. http://aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=20517

do you <3 it very much?

thatdarngirl #51.1.1.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Yes, even though Dillon Mckay will not be included.

from the Jim Henson company, in the vein of The Dark Crystal and The Labrynth...

Wow, I love their creativity. They've got some really talented designers.

iwz #50.1.1 iwz

reminds me a LOT of Salvador Dali

web-toedchloe #50.1.2 web-toedchloeOG 2001

I was thinking Bosch, who happens to be my favorite artist.

iwz #50.1.2.1 iwz

ah yes, i can see that

also been compared to paintings by Gil Bruvel or Michael Parkes

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

I've heard of Michael Parkes, but not Gil Bruvel; I just googled him. It is very similar. It's all very dreamy and other-wordly. I envy artists with creativity. The extent of mine is a sad little lady bug on a watchtower margin.

Hm it's called Garden of Earthly Delights.. here's a bigger image http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/bosch/delight/delightc.jpg

Very interesting. Who can spot the two black people?

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

This is a section of his painting on hell:

http://www.rainfall.com/posters/images/classicart/hieronymus_bosch.temptation_of_saint_anthony.jpg

I did a paper on him in college. Very good stuff.

iwz iwz

oh, so Newark was basically the equivalent of hell to him

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

What?

iwz iwz

haha, just saying that the scene depicted in that painting looks like a modern day slum

web-toedchloe web-toedchloeOG 2001

Oh. See, I went to NJIT in Newark, so I don't think of the slums when I hear the name.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

No, no, Hoboken.

iwz #49 iwz
fivezero #49.1 fivezeroOG 2003

I want to see that! Wow! I love how chubby and round they look, but they zip thru the water at like 30 miles per hour. Yeesh. I liked the music and Morgan Freemans narration.

forrestina #49.2 forrestinaOG 2002

brian drummond is going to freak out. he is penguin obsessed.

juicymango #49.3 juicymangoOG 2003

ooooh i hope it plays at the IMAX. I want to see this soooooo bad, it's SO CUTE!!!

malibu #49.4 malibuOG 2001

ya know whats funny? morgan freeman has the best documentary voice. or would be such a great president, or he plays god. i love his voice though. adn he just takes such awkward roles that i love it.

Looks really good! (Except for Depp's teeth)

socalgal #47.1 socalgalOG 2003

i cannot wait for this movie! im amazed that the oompa loompas don't look creepy.

D
#47.1.1 dgiaimoOG 2003

Me too. It looks awesome, but did anyone else think that the way Johnny Depp was made up he looked a bit like Michael Jackson? Especially being around the kids... :)

iwz #47.1.1.1 iwz

haha, I heard somebody else say that too. not NEARLY as freaky as M.J. tho

thatdarngirl #47.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Looks amazing and Johnny Depp sounds terrifying in it.

fivezero #47.3 fivezeroOG 2003

I love how afriad of kids he is. Violet hugs him and tells him her name and he disgustedly says "i don't care."

juicymango #47.4 juicymangoOG 2003

this i think is my favorite trailer of all time

theremin #46 thereminOG 2002

The Adventures of Shark Boy and Lava Girl in 3-D . . does anyone know if it's gonna be in anaglyphic 3-d . . like the kind you wear the glasses for and the images come off the screen... and if so is it gonna be in regular cinemas??

Or is it just another one of those computer animated jobs and they just thought they'd pitch the word "3d" at the end of the title. . (like Toy Story, etc)?

fivezero #46.1 fivezeroOG 2003

Nope. It's old school 3-D. Directed by Robert Rodrigues. Starring a buncha mexicans.

theremin #46.1.1 thereminOG 2002

What are you answering nope to. . haha

Is it anaglyphic or non-anaglyphic?
Gonna be in regular towny cinemas or special venues?

fivezero #46.1.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

OLD SCHOOL 3-D! Regular cinemas WILL be able to show it.

theremin thereminOG 2002

Still don't know what you mean by old school 3d. That could mean either type. haha

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

you are an unbendingly resistant human

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

ok, did TRUE research and yes ANAGLYPHIC

theremin thereminOG 2002

Awesome, I'll be seeing it then.. otherwise I wouldn't probably see it. There should be more anaglyphic movies.. I love 'em.

fivezero #45 fivezeroOG 2003

Matt Vaughn stepped down from directing X3! NOOOOO. An interesting name has popped up though. A decent one. Brett Ratner. Read the last three paragraphs of this thing. Lots of cool X3 story info. http://aintitcool.com/display.cgi?id=20363

thatdarngirl #45.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

Whoah whoah..is this supposed to be the last x-men movie..if they're just going around and killing people off and taking away powers!?

fivezero #45.1.1 fivezeroOG 2003

I don't think so. Theres soooo many story possibilities and characters to use. It'd be retarded to stop it now. While trilogies are popular, I think X-Men will go on for a few movies.

sunshyne #45.1.1.1 sunshyneOG 2004

not to mention alternate universes.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Exactly. Days Future Past, Age of Apocalypse, etc. Theres literally hundreds of VERY interesting avenues to take.

thatdarngirl #45.1.1.2 thatdarngirlOG 2002

I know!! There are so many story lines that they could do without even leaving the comics/show.

Phoenix
The valley place..where no one's powers work
Apocolypse with his million story lines
Mr. Sinister!!!

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

The Phoenix saga is one I'm looking forward to. I think it'll be handled soon and I most definitely want a Mr. Sinister and the Marauders movie. That would be amazing. And CABLE'S STORY! That could be a trilogy on it's own!

thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

Ahh Cable is awesome!

I hate the Pheonix saga..watching Jean Grey pass out right and left going "Scott!"

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Who would you cast as Cable? I'd maybe pick a scarred up and much bulkier ED HARRIS! I dunno...

theremin thereminOG 2002

7'2" 387-pound Dalip Singh should play Cable:


thatdarngirl thatdarngirlOG 2002

I could kinda see that..

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

if THAT were cable I wouldn't even watch it!

theremin thereminOG 2002 fivezero

I haven't seen The Longest Yard, so I don't know about his acting... but for Cable you're gonna need someone huge (just look at the drawings of Cable next to Wolverine. He makes Wolverine seem so small). This dude's huge.. I saw him on Late Night, and when you got talking about who to play Cable.. I immediately thought of this dude.

deanh77 deanh77Founder theremin

wolverine's small. he's supposed to be like 5 foot. they don't always show him that way in the comics and they didn't in the movie, but he is.

theremin thereminOG 2002 deanh77

Do you know about what height and weight Cable is? My comic stuff is in the basement.. don't feel like getting up right now.

theremin thereminOG 2002 fivezero

C'mon.. you'd see a Cable movie if Pee-Wee Herman played Cable.

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Anthony Hopkins?

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Carol O'conner?!

theremin thereminOG 2002

hahahha


put the kettle on

fivezero fivezeroOG 2003

Cool pics!

fivezero #44 fivezeroOG 2003

Neat production diary vid from the set of Superman Returns. I'll still never forgive Brian Singer for ditching X-Men. What an aye-hole. I'll still see his take on Superman, but I'm not happy about that betrayal. http://www.bluetights.net/video_large.php?id=14

thatdarngirl #44.1 thatdarngirlOG 2002

We should kill him for his insolence.
