I saw that trailer before Walter Mitty and it was more enjoyable than the entire movie I saw after it.

From the trailer the anti-ai militia are the heroes and fail, bold statement to show terrorist irregulars in a positive light

Kush posted:I don't know what it is, but I'm not getting anything out of Transcendence trailers. It looks so banal and overly serious and somehow I can see it on the faces of the actors, everyone looks bored and bothered to be there. I hope I am wrong, because there are some elements that could be cool, but those trailers are very limp. God awful boring cinematographer directs god awful boring film. Shocker. The only mystery here is why anyone thought he'd be able to transcend his shortcomings.

The Purge sequel incoming. I'm genuinely impressed with the turnaround on this one, it must have been shot on a shoestring or been half-done when the first one launched or something: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwxDUqE9txQ It still looks like a cliched "pretty white people get hunted" garbage like the first one, but it's a massive step in the right direction by at least attempting to portray society during the Purge instead of giving us another Home Invasion movie. Still, even with as juvenile and adolescent an idea as The Purge it still feels like these movies are just barely scratching the surface of what's possible with the premise. I kind-of hate MovieBob but he had a great idea which was "do scientists all band together to perform as much illegal and unethical research as possible during the 12 hours?" I'd like to see that movie way more than "URBAN AMERICA IS SCARY!"

It's not just the right direction, it's also the most logical one after the first movie. The first one wasn't as terrible as I expected and I wasn't bored by it, so I might check this one out. edogawa rando fucked around with this message at 08:15 on Feb 13, 2014 |

Eh, I'm of the opinion that these movies should never have been about Home Invasions in the first place, and that this sequel is--at the very most conservative--where the concept should have began to be explored in the first place, but I also recognize I'm basically being a nerd throwing a tantrum because Hollywood won't be the way I think it ought to be. Doesn't mean I'm wrong though.

Suburban McMansions with awesome security systems are boring. If I made a Purge movie, I'd make the protagonists a small group of homeless addicts. They plan a raid of the head dealer in the city, take over his stronghold, claim everything that is his. They'd be sitting on a mountain of money, drugs, and weaponry, and because of the law THEY are now king dealers in the area. Make the movie about people that already are living outside of the law, already have knowledge of brutality and desperation, and THEN give them a 24 hour period to do so with impunity.

If you've read the book, you'll know that they've changed the location, the methodology, a crucial part of the main character's personality and motivation, and the reasons for her actions. E: Jonathan Glazer posted:There will be people who really like the book and want to see a film of it. I imagine they'll be flabbergasted by how much the film deviates from that source material, and they'll either resent it for that or enjoy the fact that it rhymes with it, which is what I think it does. The ideas in it have changed but the soul is still quite close. Translation: "We stole the title and basic premise, but that's it". Jedit fucked around with this message at 22:16 on Feb 13, 2014 |

I don't think I've ever said this about anything ever, but the concept of The Purge is just dying to be comic books.

Problem with the first THE PURGE is that the family started off wanting to survive by any means necessary, a logical and rational position to hold, but then made a ninety degree left turn to, "Our crybaby son is right- if it's kill or be killed, we should just let these people slaughter us. How dare we defend ourselves in kind." Thankfully this new flick doesn't appear to have any room for such trash morality. Also, it's cool that Zach Gilford and Kiele Sanchez are starring in this together as they're married in reality. Such a cute couple

This might be a completely radical and crazy idea, so stop me if it gets too wacky, but maybe we can wait for the movie to be released, see it then and judge it on its own merits instead of dismissing it sight unseen, yeah? It's crazy, I know.

http://youtu.be/MyoO35P41YM Trailer for Locke, the new movie starring Tom Hardy and just Tom Hardy. There are other actors but they never actually show up and are just voices on his phone.

Even more interesting he spends the entire film sitting down playing an old German man. Every Hardy film I've seen, even the good ones, have focused on his physique. I hope it works out for him.

Benicio's character, The Collector, is in this and the Guardians deal/interact with him but the overarching plot of the infinity gems isn't a focus in the movie unless they introduce yet another stone in this one.

Personally I'm upset we didn't see more. Personally, I'm still waiting to see Vin Diesel's 'I am Groot' and Cooper's Rocket Raccoon. John C. Reiley is a nice touch though. edit: Nevermind, thought it was the short teaser. double edit: didn't watch said trailer in earlier edit, now did, original point still stands.
