It's a bit sad that a movie with Chan and Schwarzenegger is going to be a big nothing, not even an interesting failure.

I remember reading that Drive with Mark Dascascos and Bokeem Woodbine was originally written for Stallone and Chan. I'd be interested to see what a movie written for Arnold and Jackie in their primes would be like.

I can't promise it will live up to the hype, but I tried my best.
That looks really, really cool. Solid medieval movies don't come along often enough and Dev Patel looks aces in it.

The myth of gawain and the green knight is cool and creepy and could work really well in this context.

The myth goes: a green knight travels to arthur's court and challenges them to a test of bravery. He drops an axe and says: "hit me with this axe however you'd like! And in one year I'll hit you the same way." Arthur's knight Gawain takes the axe and chops off the green knight's head. Pretty smart! Now he doesn't need to worry about retribution in one year.

But, the green knight, now headless, picks up his head and is like: "ok see you in a year," and walks out. Gawain spends 11 months making GBS threads himself, and then goes on a quest to seek out the green knight and end the challenge. (i won't spoil how it ends)

I dig literalist interpretations of folklore and mythology so The Witch was my baby jam, hope this is more of the same.

Yes. It looks much more del toro than these other touch points, and I’m excited for it

This looks loving rad. Taking the story of Gawain and the Green Knight and re-writing it as a horror(?) movie is really clever.

The look of the Green Knight strongly reminds me of the TV series Hannibal, when Will dreams about Hannibal as a dark, antlered figure with Mads Mikkelsen's face as a mask.

I wonder if that howling fox is a trailer thing or just meant to be weird.

This is directed by the guy that made The Raid, so there might be something here.

Okay, everyone, shut up.

Apparently, this is based on a Video Game.

Specifically, based on a PSP game.

Even more specifically, the PSP spinoff of The Getaway on PS2.

Green Knight looks good, but I hope it goes in even stranger directions than we see in the trailer. Because we see the green knight clearly in the trailer, seems to kind of give the game away.

Ehhhhhh. It's fine, but I think I'm over the slow, dour Bond songs. I miss Duran Duran, or Tina Turner, or Chris Cornell.

Casino Royale is my favorite Bond movie. But I wish they'd end the "Bond is sad" era and get around to being fun again.

The only source for this I can find is wikipedia but the sources linked to by the wiki article clearly say that it's unrelated to the game.

Too bad Eggers wasn't involved in this sequel.
'Subversion' is right, though. Certainly an unexpected direction.

That reminds me a lot of the second season of Castle Rock, where Lizzie Caplan played a pretty good psycho mom version of Annie Wilkes.

There should be a thriller that gradually, imperceptibly narrows it's aspect ratio like the first half of that trailer.
