movie trailer thread?

[nwhoopfan]

Haven't bothered looking at trailers for a while, since movies might not ever be released in theaters again. Sigh. Stumbled onto this. Looks fairly different. Evan Rachel Wood and Richard Jenkins, that's certainly something to work with.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Branagh's follow up to Murder on the Orient Express. Poirot at it again.

 

[nwhoopfan]

New trailer for the latest Bond flick. This looks somewhat interesting.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Here we go with another attempt at bringing Dune to the big screen. Hell of a cast list in this one. Unfortunately there's something about Timothee Chalamet that kinda bugs me.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Trailer #2 for Free Guy. Maybe gives too much away. But you have Ryan Reynolds doing his thing, and Jodie Comer, so at least it has that going for it.

An original movie from Disney? Not a sequel, prequel, franchise, live action remake, etc. etc.



huh...Kelly Marie Tran, much hated by the Star Wars fanboys, voices the title character

Looks like a cross between Tomb Raider and the Avatar Nickelodeon series.

Dune is such a tough work to adapt to the big screen, as can be seen from the prior attempts, but this one actually looks pretty good.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Too soon? Yep, way way way too soon. Hollywood hasn't met anything yet they wouldn't try to cash in on .

 

[nwhoopfan]

There's a bit of a Denzel stock character, but he's so good at it that nobody seems to mind. A few other acclaimed actors alongside him for this one.

The throwdown of the year! I skipped the last Godzilla flick, and Skull Island wasn't very good, but who doesn't want to see Kong and 'Zilla brawlin'? Pretty decent human cast as well.

This is must watch for us. My wife is a Godzilla movie nut. She has all of them.

The problem with these Godzilla vs King Kong movies is that they make Godzilla the bad guy. Godzilla is the good guy! 2014 Godzilla was really well done. Godzilla King of the Monsters in 2019 was just decent. Skull Island was dumb fun despite the irrationally stupidity of the Samuel Jackson character.

I'll watch it. Enjoy it Forget it. These movies are like fudge. Packed with sugar. Really enjoyable. Ultimately worthless. Need to be taken in small doses. If you have to much you get sick.

So there have been a few movies that have dealt w/ the Peter Pan legend that somewhat focused more on Captain Hook. And of course there have been 2 films about Maleficent (from Sleeping Beauty). Now Disney is bringing us this. I think I see where they're going, retelling all their stories but shifting the point of view to the villain. I do like Emma Stone, she might be able to carry this off. The Marvel part of Disney might be feeling a bit jealous/threatened, because they appear to be borrowing fairly liberally from The Joker and Harley Quinn.

I have to say, when I posted this, I had no idea who Emma Mackey is. I do now, and I'm kinda obsessed with her. Can she outshine Gal Gadot? Maybe...

 

[nwhoopfan]

This started out looking like a thriller, then maybe shifted a bit horror-ish. I hope not, really not my genre. But Thomasin McKenzie AND Anya Taylor-Joy? That might be too much awesomeness in one movie.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Thomasin again, in M. Night's latest. Also kinda horror-ish.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Dammit, I'm gonna get this thread going if it's the last thing I do!

 

[nwhoopfan]

Maybe? Prime original coming out in July. Looks entertaining, but here we have yet again a tiny woman beating the hell out of a bunch of men twice her size. Kate Beckinsale has done that before, but last time she was a vampire. Now she's supercharged, w/ anger management issues?




edit--Kate is looking like one of those ageless wonders; I had to look her up, born in '73, she could still pass for 30 something

Thomasin again, in M. Night's latest. Also kinda horror-ish.

Just saw trailer for first time last night and thought wtf... seeing it again here makes a bit more sense. I'd watch it... but unlikely to pay for it.

[nwhoopfan]

I had to look up the cast list. Nora Arnezeder is a chameleon, she never looks the same twice. I just saw her in something else and I didn't recognize her at all in this trailer.

 

[nwhoopfan]

Could be fun in an over the top way.

I can’t wait. I’ve been listening to the prequels, House Atreides, Harkonnen and Corrino.

I thought I knew a bit about Dune, but the more I learn the more I realize that other sci fi franchises have been ripping it off for years.

 

[storrsroars]

This looks incredibly stupid, but potentially a ton of fun.
