concept pics from the Voltron script been shopped around hollywood.

Voltron looks good, but hopefully will look better by the time they make the movie. At least I hope they do make the movie.

Saw that earlier today. The designs look feckin' awful.

It's a very early concept. I'd expect him to look different if the movie sells to a studio

[SGB]

It's a very early concept.
I know, but they're going in the wrong direction.

I'm trying to find out if the concept pics are even legit.

Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance: February 17, 2012

I enjoyed the first one, although it could've been a hellava lot better. Hopefully this on will be closer to the marvel backstory for Blaze

I'm trying to find out if the concept pics are even legit.

If these are legit concept pics, I like the production values but, the Movie must be set Off-Earth and it had better cater for adults and not just children.

What direction would you like to see it go in SGB? personally I've no gripes if they steer away from the 'Block' look but I don't want it to be a half-arsed redux type thing either.

Bayifying, as some have termed, I'm not against, though, it must retain it's original proportions IMO.

I too thoroughly enjoyed the first film, but yeah like others felt sort of let down at the end as IMO Legion died way too un-epically and quickly.

Hopefully this will be a much Balls-ier effort and I'm really glad that Nicholas Cage is still in the seat, I feel sorry for what his ex-agent/manager has caused him plus he's an awesome actor, especially in Con-Air! :D

[SGB]

What direction would you like to see it go in SGB?
I wouldn't mind seeing it go in a similar direction to the recent Voltron comic by Devil's Due.

Speaking of old Japanese cartoons made into movies, Space Battleship Yamato is due out at the end of the year In Japan.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fzK4aKGTP3E

I wonder how long it will take the rest of the world to see it in some form. Looks fairly true to the original, except the comedy relief doctor has been replaced with a new female character.

Along with the Argus, The Macross and the Imperial Star Destroyer the Yamato's always been one for my favorite iconic starship designs.

[Autocon]

when is scot pilgrim released on dvd?

You know, my dad pointed that out to me the other day as well. Looks pretty cool, I never watched the orignal series though.

[piratescratch]

when is scot pilgrim released on dvd?

November 9th though not sure if that also applies for us in Australia.

Madness.

Del Toro is looking to get Perlman to be in At The Mountains Of Madness (http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=70101). I look forward to this movie with eager eyes.

[Gutsman Heavy]

Del Toro & Pearlman are a winning mix, one to keep an eye on!

Star Wars in 3D (http://www.news.com.au/breaking-news/star-wars-films-set-for-3d-release-in-2012/story-e6frfku0-1225932040112)

Holy Crap! Why didn't I know about this? ATMOM is my favorite H.P. Lovecraft story.

I last heard that it was going to be the basis of another survival horror video game in the same vein as Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth but in 3rd person.

I wonder if Jeffrey Combs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jeffrey_Combs) will take on a cameo appearance in this film.

[Autocon]

despicable me 3d
3d not really needed for film
enjoyable!:cool:

[VERT]

Starwars 3D Makes me sad :(

I don't know much about the story (in fact not at all :p) but I am willing to bet it will be close to the source material, Del Toro seems to keep true to that. I am wanting to read the story before it comes to the movies though, then I will have an idea about it.

Also, did anyone go see Tomorrow When The War Began? I want to hear peoples thoughts on it.

SO Rhys Ifans cast as The Lizard in Marc Webbs Spidey movie.

Seriously, check this out if you haven't already :eek:

Skyline trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QSymCekdLk)

[Paulbot]

With that font and that opening it looks like an ad for Transformers 3.

I'm more interested in Battle: Los Angeles (http://reportthreats.org/site/), but there's no trailer yet except for a few seconds from Comic Con (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F78x34-h0tc).

[gantz]

Yeah Skyline looks awesome! Go Turk!!!

Apparently the scene when an alien takes a humans brain is quite something!

[Hursticon]

Seriously, check this out if you haven't already :eek:

Skyline trailer (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-QSymCekdLk)

Looks pretty cool! :D
Although it screams "ID4 fornicated with Cloverfield" ;), I'm not bothered by it surprisingly, I hope it is at least as good as District 9 - Those South Africans can make a pretty sick film! :D

[gantz]

Looking somewhat forward to Jackass 3D, and this review is great :)

I totally forgot how old they all are now, well some...

[Doubledealer]

Noticed a flyer for Paranormal Activity 2 yesterday which says the film comes out next week! Absolutely loved the first one, more so than Blair Witch, Rec and others filmed in a similar documentary style. No free tickets this time but it's only $8 if you see the preview sceening next Wednesday. :D Just hope it's the original team producing the film and Spielberg doesn't screw up the ending again...

[Tober]

MANTERA Trailer 01 - The Rising (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_YB_7Pb3n4w&feature=player_embedded)

[Doubledealer]

Saw Paranormal Activity 2 and it is utterly brilliant. Brutal, brutal ending, and very cleverly changes the way you think about the first movie by providing an explanation as to why the hauntings take place. For modern psychological horror these two films are truly in a league of their own. It's a slow burn but if you can let this one draw you in you won't be disappointed!

[Bartrim]

Saw "Get him to the Greek" last night. Vulgar but absolutely hilarious:D

My wife showed me that. It nearly made me sick

[1AZRAEL1]

"The Dark Knight Rises" is the title of the final Batman movie. I have goosebumps. Maybe it is just cold in this room :p

Sad to see that it will be Nolan's last, but I think this will be a great movie. Wonder how they are going to top the Joker. Not the Riddler though, that has been mentioned. I would like to see a good Bane, unlike the last incarnation *cough* crap *cough*

And the studio have agreed to not to film it in 3D, but something that caught my eye was him saying "We’re looking to do something technologically that’s never been done before," I cannot wait for the July 20 2012 release.

[gantz]

Not too sure of the name, but it does have a good feel to it.

And whats with all the talk/rumours of the new female lead possibly being Catwoman?

Bringing her in as the next villian after The Joker would seem illogical, but it being made by Nolan, sure that guy could turn most characters into a masterpiece!

[1AZRAEL1]

I have heard rumors of a female lead, which could indicate Catwoman, but I also have the thought of Poison Ivy. Maybe.

You are right though, he can make a masterpiece out of any character he can draw on.

[Sharky]

doesnt killer croc make an appearance... i doubt he would be a lead villian anyway... might be like how he rounds up scarecrow at the begining....

penguin maybe

riddler has been given a nogo which is a shame really, would be a great villian suited to nolans style... Not jim carrey like either, a little more twisted....

[1AZRAEL1]

I did hear Killer Croc mentioned around the rumor mill as well. Nolan could use him similar to how he used Mr Zsasz in Batman Begins.

The Riddler more twisted would be good, but most people would see them as being too similar to Joker (Fans would know but I see the general public wouldn't)

[Hursticon]

Clearly there needs to be a Cinematic face-off between Batman and The Boy-Blunder. :p:D
Seriously, who ever liked Robin anyway?

You see, I wouldn't mind seeing The Penguin again, get the bloke who played Mini-Me to play the role and Bam! easy $1 Billion Box Office Smash! :D

[1AZRAEL1]

Clearly there needs to be a Cinematic face-off between Batman and The Boy-Blunder. :p:D
Seriously, who ever liked Robin anyway?

Only when he grew up and became Nightwing :D

[Sharky]

i wonder if a "robin" will be introduced.......or atleast put in motion like a kid/theif breaks into the mansion and discoveres the bat cave etc etc who knows how they work the story but ultimatley bruce wayne adopts a ward at the end of the movie, we do not really have to see "robin" in the film..... or at best a reveal of the costume after the credits...

Nolan is saying this will be his final Batman movie though, so I don't know if they are going to introduce something for another movie.

[gantz]

Do you think they will continue the movies after Nolan? Alotta movies need/deserve/warrant reboots, but these films have been brilliant.

I'd hate for that to happen.

[Hursticon]

Well, the franchise has certainly been profitable enough so it's entirely possible that someone may pick up the baton, but seeing what happened to the Terminator franchise after James Cameron left it - Producers and Studios may think twice.

[Paulbot]

The Dark Knight Rises?

And then he has a cup of coffee, some toast, reads the paper and goes out on patrol.

I knew it!

Batman is Dexter Morgan! :p:D

[Paulbot]

I knew it!

Batman is Dexter Morgan! :p:D

One's a crazy vigilante that tracks down and punishes criminals after a childhood trauma. The other one lives in Florida.


I'd prefer to see a Catwoman in the movie than a Robin. And a Riddler over any of the "superpowered" or "freakish" villains of Batman. Catwoman would work well like in a Year One type version where Selina is inspired by Batman to assume a costume and walk the line between enemy and ally. (As long as there's no cat's licking her back to life like in Batman Returns and Catwoman!)

[Sharky]

Nolan is saying this will be his final Batman movie though, so I don't know if they are going to introduce something for another movie.

but its not like they kill the main character off either.... but then maybe they could....

[1AZRAEL1]

They won't kill him, but honestly I can't see anyone do as good a job as he did. The first 2 were brilliant, and I can see this new one being a masterpiece as well. I hope they don't reboot at least, I am sick of studios doing reboots.

yeah i agree, i dont know if i like the idea abuot the upcoming spidey reboot or even xmen first class.......

[gantz]

When I heared the statement form Sony saying we have cut most of the budget to make way for the high drama that is involved with the reboot. Hope was lost...

X-Men: Lame Ass is going to be disugusting. Bryan Singer, the man who has stated time and time again, he does not care for the source material, hence what is happening with First Class.

Yes having Vaughn does guarentee great action/violence, but calling the movie First Class, and not actually having the 1st Class, or any class for that matter makes the whole thing hard to become even the slightest bit excited for it.

X-Men First Class, with no Jean, and no Cyclops. Dont even know what Fox was thinking (well they haven proven time an time again they dont) with the name or idea, also seeing as how Iceman was a child student in the first 3. hmmmm

Sorry, rant over.

[Gutsman Heavy]

it can't be worse than x-men 3.

[Paulbot]

I'm looking forward to X-Men:First Class. I expect/hope it to better than X-Men 3 and have been generally impressed with the cast so far.

Sure it's more "X-Men Origins" than an adaptation of the comic book, but didn't you already know or suspect that? The X-Men Movie universe is a long way from the 616 Universe.

I'm more interested in seeing a story that brings together young versions of Charles, Moira, and Erik then in seeing teen Cyclops again (there was enough of him in Wolverine anyway).

And speaking of that film if you've looking for a X-Men comic adaptation gone wrong look at how a pretty cool Wade Wilson at the start of the movie became an unrecognisable Deadpool by the end of it.

[gantz]

Well, actually no. Fox only released the name of the film first, and kept the rest to their chest for long time, prob because they'd figured the comic sold well, lets create hype for the new movie with the same name.

And really, James McAvoy as a young Xavier is hard to believe (I do like him as an actor) and could you really believe he transforms into Prof X?

I have come to the conclusion that Fox are pulling a sneaky reboot, snaeky sneaky decietful reboot....

And introducing characters like Angel Salvadore, who was not even born yet, gah!

[Paulbot]

And really, James McAvoy as a young Xavier is hard to believe (I do like him as an actor) and could you really believe he transforms into Prof X?

He's not too removed from some images of early Xavier but Patrick Stewart is so unique no one could really work in that role. That guy in Star Trek Nemesis for example never convinced me.


And introducing characters like Angel Salvadore, who was not even born yet, gah!

If you want me to pick out everything in the existing X-Men movies that contradicts the comics I'll be here all day :)

[Paulbot]

Just saw some new pics of Chris Evans as Captain America and the WW1 costume is looking good I think.

Oh dear god yes.

[Bartrim]

Wow, looks good. I for one can't wait for this movie.

I don't know if Chris EVans can be "Serious" enough to be Captain America. I only really remember him from Fantastic Four and The Losers but it appears he does the quick witted goofy humour quite well.

[1AZRAEL1]

Well not so much a movie but production company MGM Files for Chapter 11 Bankruptcy (http://www.comingsoon.net/news/movienews.php?id=71367)

But on a movie note, Silent Hill: Revelations (http://www.comingsoon.net/films.php?id=59128) being directed by a relatively unknown Michael J. Bassett. But I saw his movie Solomon Kane and it was fan-smegging-tastic. Interested in seeing another movie he is doing called The Unblinking Eye starring Jeffrey Dean Morgan as a serial killer.

I loved it, they melded aspects of the first 2 games into it, but did it well I thought. This new one seems like a separate story, which still leaves me wondering exactly what happened at the end of the last one. There are all the theories out there, but I still don't know :p

[gantz]

Loved the 1st film, disturbingly wonderful.

My thoughts were that they were dead? what did you guys think?

[gantz]

Also really looking forward to the new Aussie horror movie, The Loved Ones.

:eek: Oh Wow!
MGM is coming to a close? that's pretty sad actually as it is one of the single most Iconic Hollywood studios of all time! I guess the GFC is finally encroaching on the American Movie Industry now eh? :(

I, like my 2 Brothers, absolutely loved the original Silent Hill movie - It smacked the crap out of the 3rd Resident Evil film and was eerily beautiful in my mind. :D
It would be nice if they did a follow up but, typically because the Americans weren't led by the hand all the way through the film, I don't think they will though unfortunately so at least they're revisiting the franchise anyway. :D

[1AZRAEL1]

My thoughts were that they were dead? what did you guys think?

Well one theory is they are dead, hence why Chris wakes up and walks around almost as if he feels there presence.

Another theory I have heard is they are still stuck in the Silent Hill world and can't escape.

Can't recall the others off the top of my head, but there are a number of them.

[Paulbot]

:eek: Oh Wow!

I don't. I just get them off someone who does:p

[1AZRAEL1]

I don't download movies, I just don't see why we should have to wait weeks, and even months, for it to be released here. Movies and all other media should be released same date globally. I just think it's crap.

Like the movie Solomon Kane, released last year in UK cinemas, but here in Australia we have not had a whiff of it.

[1AZRAEL1]

OK, going to my local blockbuster tomorrow, reccomend me a few great horror movies!

Phantasm (and sequals), Bubba Ho Tep

I'd be very impressed to see the figures that suggest that the downfall of MGM is purely due to the downloading of their films.
I think it is a very uninformed opinion to suggest such a thing, which is exactly what I stated when the author of a story on news.com.au tried to suggest that the only reason a Heavy Metal band got the No.1 spot on the Aria charts for a particular week/month was only because every other artists songs were being illegally downloaded! :confused::rolleyes:

Like others, I think that it is pathetic that Australia, 9 times out of 10, gets things up to half a year later than anyone else but it is my personal view that if it is ripped of HDTV - then it is just the same as recording on a VCR.

I don't condone Piracy, nor do I promote it as I disagree with downloading Ripped DVDs and I stopped downloading Mp3s almost a decade ago because I came to prefer buying CDs and paying the Bands their due.
Whilst I have less of a problem if people download things and pass them around to their friends, compared to a person who downloads them, packages them and then sells them as the real things - That I believe is outright theft and should carry the maximum penalty.

Phantasm (and sequals), Bubba Ho Tep

BubbaHotep is more of a Dark Comedy IMO, but is an insanely awesome movie none the less! :D:D:D

Here is a couple Gantz, off the top of my head:

The Orphnage
The Graveyard Shift
Pet Sematary
HellRaiser (1, 2 and/or 3)
Bram Stoker's: Dracula
Child's Play (1, 2, and/or 3)
The Amityville Horror (Remake)
Ginger Snaps (1, 2, and/or 3)
Dead Silence
Friday The 13th (Any)
Halloween (Not 3 or H2O)
Nightmare on Elm Street (Any)
Freddy vs. Jason
Evil Dead (1 and/or 2 - Army of Darkness is more Black Comedy IMO)
Exorcist (Original or Prequel)
House of 1000 Corpses
The Devil's Rejects
13 Ghosts
Ghost Ship
Jeepers Creepers (1 and/or 2)

I've got plenty more but that should start you off, that and:


best to ask Fatbot about that, he loves his horror movies.

I'm also curious to see what Fatbot can list as I dig Horror movies! :D

[5FDP]

Blood drew references from basically every horror film known to man. That's why I loved it. But in reference to which one of those, Blood 1 drew a bit from Phantasm withthe first level taking place in Morningside Mortuary, and in Blood 2, you get to use the sphere (which is friggin awesome)

I knew that they both had references to a lot of Horror pieces but couldn't remember which film the Sphere was drawn from specifically.

Cheers Dude! :D

[Gutsman Heavy]

try [REC] and let the right one in.

[gantz]

Great suggestion with [REC] have caught that, and will need to see Let The Right One In before seeing the remake, which Ive heard is quite good.

[gamblor916]

Let The Right One In is fantastic, also looking forward to the remake which might also be quite good.

[Eruntalon]

Ah yes! I prefer that one.

My favorite horror film is The Gate: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0093075/ . I like it because it was made in 1987 and a lot of the cinematography is below par in comparison to today's standards. It has an interesting back story which is similar to an Occult Mythos in the realms of Lovecraft.


Also:


Loved the 1st film, disturbingly wonderful.

My thoughts were that they were dead? what did you guys think?

+1 Silent World.

[1AZRAEL1]

I am very dissapointed as to how the live ation Akira is turning into.

A: they are changing the names
B: they are choosing the wrong people to play these roles (I mean Zac Effron has been offered to play Shotaro Kaneda(reportedly changed to Kaneda Shim) I mean, come on, don't screw this up)
And as much as I love Morgan Freeman, I don't see him playing The Colonel.

If this is turns out as bad as I think it will, I am not going to be happy. :mad:

[Gutsman Heavy]

You trolling right!? Please say there is no live action akira!

[gantz]

http://www.aintitcool.com/node/47357

Unfortunately not :(

[1AZRAEL1]

Nah I ain't trolling. I heard about this a while back, only now have I found out about Zac Effron (whom I hate with a passion) and now Morgan Freeman.

Seems like another manga story that Hollywood will take and royally screw up.

[gantz]

Az, does it have anything to do with Leo DiCaprio's production company?

Ive heard he/they have acquired rights to such animes as Ninja Scroll, and it was their goal to stay true to source material etc

Last I heard of 'em, they seemed to be doing great things... or at least want to.

[gantz]

Also, my horror weekend went in a different direction, as it was a friday night, got to blockbuster late, and couldnt find a few titles.

So what I got, Childs Play, Stir of Echoes (kevin Beacon is great), Let The The Right One (fkn creepy, creepy stuff, so good) and A Nightmare On Elm Street 4, stay away from that movie, WTF?!

Going for more this weekend :D

[1AZRAEL1]

I know it's not the greatest source of accurate info, but wiki states that Andrew Lazar, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Jennifer Davisson were to produce the film. And if any of the other info is to go by, it is supposed to be coming out next year. Somehow I don't think that will happen.

Still, I am not holding my breath for a good movie.

[gantz]

Ah cool, ok then.

One of the worrying things for me is, will they feel the need to 'update' it??

[1AZRAEL1]

Simple.

It's Hollywood. They always want to remake things rather than come up with new ideas. There have been few "new" movies coming out, the major ones are usually remakes. Seems that remakes make them more money then trying to invest in new ideas for movies.

[Hursticon]

It doesn't help that American Audiences require their hand to be held all the way throughout most movies! :mad:
Any movie that requires an ounce of individual thought or imagination, is immediately deemed a flop whilst the rest of the world asks why? :rolleyes:

Prequels, Sequels and Remakes are the flavour of the decade because originality in Hollywood comes with a price tag - that is financially and directorialy rewarding.
The only films that have come out that are 'new' ideas are ones with insane budgets and/or top name directors attached, very few movies have gone against this unless they're made outside the U.S., in which case they require thought thus dubbed flops i.e. District 9. :mad::rolleyes:

Akira, is an Anime classic and one of my all time favourites and does not deserve to be bastardised like The Ring, The Grudge, Bio Boosted Armour: Guyver and Dragonball Z were!!! http://www.messentools.com/images/emoticones/varios/www.MessenTools.com-Varios-big-175.gif (http://www.messentools.com/en/msn-emoticon-details-and-download/id/687/)



P.S. Ninja Scroll is F@#$ing Awesome! :D

[Tabias Prime]

just watched The Teaser Trailer for Kung Fu Panda 2.....I only just saw the first one about a month ago...and loved it.:D:D:D:D:D:D

Haha classic. Its a great movie, as well as How To Train Your Dragon.

Can't wait for the the Kaboom Of Doom :D

Anyone pumped for Sucker Punch coming out March next year? I'm eager for it - on par or even more than TF3.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1PSz5OjrvOM&feature=related

The movie stars beautiful Aussie actresses Emily Browning and Abbie Cornish (who I thought did a brilliant job as Penny in Life Support) and is directed by 300's and the Watchmen's Zack Snyder.

Just found out a girl from my year in High School (I wouldn't call her a friend because we had a few personality clashes in our time) is the producer for Griff the Invisible

I'm reading great things about this movie: Monsters (trailer on YouTube) (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V_-gL3U1T5Y)

True, there wasn't many standouts, though Tron comes out at the end of this year. And if you are a fan, Harry Potter next week. And this one I just found this one simply called Devil (http://www.hoyts.com.au/Movies/details/Devil.aspx?cs=1). Seems interesting, but I doubt I will see it at the cinemas.

i dunno i enjoyed Predators, Iron Man 2, Alice in wonderland, ateam for some 80's cheese, expendables for more 80's cheese, prince of persia was fun how to train your dragon sure there was a few more... dicaprios other movie .... shutter island...

all worth a mention

Yeah, I enjoyed Predators too however a lot of people didn't (apparently). I guess I was more approaching this from a 'box office success' view rather than my own personal opinion. Resident Evil Afterlife was one of my favorites for the year. You're right about Iron Man 2.... forgot about that :o

Getting a copy of Predators today at lunch! Cant wait!

Comes with a sequel comic also, interesting, will let you guys know....

Still haven't seen The Losers, though I want to because it looked good, and also has Jeffery Dean Morgan in it. Been a fan of his ever since I seen Watchmen.

I will have to watch soon then.

Also, I think Chris will do a good job of Steve Rogers.

He's good but Chris Evans steals the show. The above link is a prime example.

That title annoys the Hell out of me, it's name is one long grammatical error! :rolleyes::p

I'll see it, but it's got a lot to live up to compared to ID4, IMO. :cool:


I dug Predators, would've liked to of seen or heard a Predator 2 reference, but meh - still a kick ass movie but like Terminator: Salvation, I fear this one is gonna be unfairly written off. :(

Next year indeed is shaping up to be a good year for movies, there is another big title coming out too but I can't put my finger on it...

[Lord_Zed]

Been told Skyline is the greatest invasion movie.

Really? The trailer was so cornball, I thought it WAS Independence Day two what with the shot of a pair of heroes looking tough, spaceships that hover slightly above cities but are all modern spiky/Bay style, and the ultra cheesy Steven Hawking quote "warned us that aliens would be hostile, perhaps we should have listened".

I mean listened and done what? built a giant anti alien doomsday device to use against aliens we've never seen before?

Anyway I will still probably see it cause I like a bit of scifi, but my expectations are floor level.

Turk will save the day!

In other news, international release dates have been set for THOR. We get it April 28th 2011 :D

And Fatbot, is that an official picture for Avengers? because if it is, that looks effin awesome. I can't wait for it to come out as well.

[fatbot]

And Fatbot, is that an official picture for Avengers? because if it is, that looks effin awesome. I can't wait for it to come out as well.

As far as I'm aware, It's official.

There are two (2) things wrong with the picture though, can anyone spot them?

[gantz]

Not official guys!!

There is the fact that eva longoria is confirmed not be involved with the film.

Ant-man is yet to be a confirmed character, so having an actors name associated is silly.

The Hulk pictured is from The Incredible Hulk, Marvel have confirmed that hulk that will appear in avengers will look different, thye're using some new kind of technique.

Disney are now releasing the film under their banner, after cutting a deal with Paramount.

Cap and Thor pictured are original renderings of the characters the studio created to get the look right.

And finally, guys, how could you possibly think that fan made image could be official?!

[Gutsman Heavy]

Obvious 'shop is obvious.

The website I saw the image said it was official, I took the them at their word, sue me, I trust people every now and then. Besides that, read the following quote from my post:

Did you read it the above quote? Did you catch the "As far as I'm Aware" Part? Obviously (due to having a life and not acting like a whiny bitch on the interweb all day) I didn't spend all day researching a poster found on a fairly ( As far as I know) reputable website.

Hahaha. Not your fault man, poster almost had me fooled there too. The real people that deserve an angry pointing to are those people that make fake posters and claim it's 'official' so that they can get people's attention but in the end piss off almost everyone and taint their expectations of the real thing when it comes out.

Wow, mate chill out, the way you reacted to that would have any one believe it was you who created the poster lol.

You asked us to identify 2 things wrong with the poster, sorry I went over your limit.

It wasn't meant to read offensively (apologies if it had), I have been reading The Avengers for 18 years, I am totally excited for this movie and am up to date with the info regarding it, sorry if I got a little excited with that post.

With as few spoilers as possible: It had some good effects and good moments (one bit was a true standout to me) but some silly moments, predictability and bad dialogue. Would not say it's the worst sci-fi film I've seen, I liked it much more than something similar like Cloverfield, but it's not great. It's worst failing is that it seems derivative of many other sci-fi movies, including possible spoilers Cloverfield, The Matrix, District 9, Independence Day, Aliens etc.

Hollywood is going to 'Godzilla' Akira, 'Guyver' Akira and even worse? They're going to 'Astroboy' Akira! :eek::mad:

So Darren Aronofsky has revealed the title of the new WOlverine film, simply:

The Wolverine.

Nice! I like it, always prefered when ages ago he refered to himself as just that.

Also, interestingly, the film will be a stand alone film, not a sequel to XMO: Wolverine.

I'm not particularly privy to the franchise either, I know of it's existence and that the magic ring is quite the cause of concern for Superdud but that's about it. :o
I'll see this flick for curiosity's sake, but I totally agree that Deadpool would be better.

On the subject of Deadpool, when was it nixed? :confused:
I was to the understanding that RR was doing both movies simultaneously or at least one after the other? :(

[gantz]

RR is still involved with deadpool. I remember him saying he would do what was ready 1st.

During all the filming of GL he always stated it is still happening, I guess now that Green Lantern is being promoted, pretty sure DC and WB wouldve said give a rest please, just for a while.

I have faith that Warner Bros will make this a decent movie with a decent storyline. I prefered RR choosing GL instead of Deadpool because the Deadpool in WO was nothing exciting compared to his comic book counterpart.

Indeed which is good because I thought his portrayal of Deadpool was pretty darn cool considering the X-Men Movieverse has some absolute WTFs.

But from what I can tell of this new one, he won't remove the helmet, and he looks more like the comic book than the Stallone one. And I heard early reports (going back a while) that they were going to have Dredd go up against the Dark Judges, which would have been effin awesome to see, but I think that is no longer the case. I'll just play my PC version to do so :D

(Hope they have the fatties in this movie :p)

[gantz]

Damn! They're actually making a Buffy movie :mad: reboot, remake etc.

Reboot or Spin-off?
I always thought the Sarah-Michelle Gellar show was just a spinoff?

I'm really getting annoyed by all these Bandwagon shows/movies coming out due to the Emo infatuation with Sparkle-fairies - Bram Stoker and those who came before him would be turning in their graves!
(No pun intended :D)

Vamps and Zombies and even werewolves are getting repetitive now, surely they can come up with some original monsters...

[gantz]

Well no! As that was 1994, you know? A lot has changed. That and the original film was horrendous, anything else was an improvement. There wasnt a MASSIVE HUGE fan base in the millions like there is now today.

And if they had, mediums to publicly display such anger or frustration were yet to be readily available.

Thanks for your 2 cents though buddy...

[gantz]

Reboot or Spin-off?
I always thought the Sarah-Michelle Gellar show was just a spinoff?

I believe originally planned as a kind of spin-off, but then there were scenes of her pre-sunnydale days, like when her 1st watcher told her who she was.

So after that, if you wanna get technical, you can say reboot.

[Eruntalon]

OMG OMG OMG Karl Urban as Dredd looks freaking awesome.

SMG was the spinoff. The original buffy was hotter :) but lamer. The TV show had a huge following though.

New set photos (http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/rorschachsrants/news/?a=25644) has a picture with graffiti on the wall, saying Fattie.

By the looks of it, they are going for the more comic book style of Mega City 1. I can't wait.

I too have to get it, and then I want to see the sequal :D

Being a HUGE Seagal fan, I loved Machette. Saw it before it's release here (which was supposed to be in November). Highly recommended for fans of grindhouse films.

No worries. Thanks for the Monsters ticket.

BTW I stayed for half and hour after and the skateboarding seemed to be the only thing happening. When I asked some staff back inside they presumed it was all that was taking place as well as they hadn't been told much.

Does anyone know anything about the sequal to The Last Starfighter titled 'Starfighter'? I love the original, but I wanna know if the sequal actually went ahead (was apparently supposed to be out last year)

:eek: Someone else remembers and loves The Last Starfighter :eek: That is one of my all-time fav movies. I watched it just last week. I can't believe it hasn't been released on DVD here.

I hadn't heard about this 'sequel'. I'll watch it if / when it comes out, but nothing can beat the original :cool:

But it appears he maybe also suffer from the same need-to-take-his-mask-off-all-the-time problem that Tobey had (also known as "make sure the star gets his face on screen as much as possible").

Recently watched "Skyline" and "Tomorrow when the war began". Skyline was not very good but I really like Tomorrow when the war began. Can't wait for the sequels to be made.

From my memory pretty close. But I haven't read the book in years. The_damned is cuurently reading the book and he says it's pretty accurate apart from modernising it with mobile phones, the beyoncee reference when Homer "shakes it" (lol funny stuff:D) etc

It was close enough bar one scene with Robin towards the end of the film, which I understand why they put it there, who knows if they'll ever get to the third movie.
A few other small changes (Dump truck with a digging scoop rather than an actual earth mover like the book), don't really change the story or characters at all.

And the modernising was good and was done very well..

Not so much a movie (yet...), but remember the awesome online short Mortal Kombat: Rebirth (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cs3ROFNxa5M) that appeared out of the blue last year, well it looks like it has received enough attention for WB to commission a 10 episode web series.

Michael Jai White has been confirmed as reprising his role as Jax with filming expected to commence next month in Vancouver.

Anne Hathaway is confirmed to play Selina Kyle/Catwoman while Tom Hardy will be playing Bane in Christopher Nolan's The Dark Knight Rises. (http://comicbookmovie.com/fansites/Wolvie09/news/?a=28319)

Man, if they do Bane justice in this movie, I will eternally be pleased. I hated the version of him in Batman & Robin.

Although, if this is the concept for him (http://www.comicbookmovie.com/fansites/GulfCoastAvengers/news/?a=28326), I don't like it.

From left to right: Michael Fassbender as Magneto, Rose Byrne as Moira MacTaggert, January Jones as Emma Frost, Jason Flemyng as Azazel, Nicholas Hoult as Beast, Lucas Till as Havok, Zoe Kravitz as Angel, Jennifer Lawrence as Mystique and James McAvoy as Professor Charles Xavier.

[Sharky]

sounds more like x-Factor then x-men

Yea, I'm a bit worried about it atm. I didn't mind the previous ones, but I don't know about this one. I will wait until I see footage of it.

[Hursticon]

I Loved X-Men Origins, X-Men 1 & 2 but after the abortionary effort that was the 3rd X-Men film this one's casting looks to be as intelligent as casting the 'Great' Khali as Pippi Long-Stocking! :rolleyes:
Why is it that they have to constantly crap on the X-Men franchise with inferior approaches? :(
(Give it to Hugh Jackman and his crew, at least they knew what they were doing with Wolverine! ;))

[Bartrim]

I didn't mind the 3rd film. I thought Kelsey Grammar was the perfect choice for Beast.

I remember being uneasy at the thought of Ryan Reynolds as Deadpool but he was great. So I wont judge until I see the movie.

The only thing I think is strange is that Havok is in this movie yet Cyclops or Xavier never mention him in the first three movies:p

[gantz]

Its FOX MAN!!

And the statement from Vauhgn stating the emma frost in first class is actually the mother of the emma frost seen in Origins!

WTF?!?! :confused:

[Hursticon]

I didn't mind the 3rd film. I thought Kelsey Grammar was the perfect choice for Beast.

IMO, Kelsey Grammar was the only positive step in that film as he nailed his role perfectly, just as Alan Cumming playing Kurt Wagner/Nightcrawler did in the previous film. ;):cool:

He was great as Wade Wilson. Don't know what that clone thing at the end was...


The only thing I think is strange is that Havok is in this movie yet Cyclops or Xavier never mention him in the first three movies:p
Alex and Scott have never been particularly close. Alex has currently been lost in space for years in the comics and I don't recall Scott's ever mentioned or thought about him once. Movie Havok may not be related to Movie Cyclops at all too since it's not the 616 universe.


who is the red guy..
Possible spoiler (but not for comic book readers) Azrael, Nightcrawler's father who also claims to be Satan (but most of us X-fans try to pretend Chuck Austen's issues of Uncanny X-Men don't count).

Movie Havok may not be related to Movie Cyclops at all too since it's not the 616 universe.
