Movies - both new and old

Well, remember that Bay isn’t the director (I think he’s awful, I’m not defending him), so stuff like the design isn’t necessarily in his hands, unless the otherguy is a figurehead, which I don’t know at this moment.

You do bring up a good point Spirit. Still, its hard to convince myself that this movie is gonna be worth watching.

I have never watched much of the original Ninja Turtles movies or series, but this new movie actually looks pretty cool. Shredder looks freaking awesome in this one.

TheSpaceSherriff: It’s astounding what a world of difference that edit made. :open_mouth: Seriously though, I don’t really have hopes for the new TMNT movie, sadly. Apart from just the frightening character designs it just looks utterly soulless. :frowning:

I have no interest whatsoever to see it.

On a different note, how does everyone feel about The Book of Life? I enjoy the incredibly “flat” visual style and character designs, it looks like judging by the trailer it’ll lend itself to some amazing set design as well. My only concern here is that I was fairly certain Pixar (and, specifically, Lee Unkrich) were also doing a film about Day of the Dead, and now I’m just confused… :confused:

^ Seems pretty interesting. I wonder if the director throws in a nod to El Tigre considering he created the show. Hopefully Pixar doesn’t stop production on the Untitled film about Día de Muertos. They might have a different plot revolved around the holiday though.

Looks good to me

Not sure if it counts, but I’m very excited for Rifftrax Live tomorrow!

The US trailer for Terry Gilliam’s The Zero Theorem is finally here:

I picked up The Iron Giant a couple of days ago. :mrgreen:

How to Ruin a Perfectly Good Movie Franchise: Pirates of the Caribbean 3. That is all.

Watched The Incredibles again.

I recently rewatched Battle Royale again. Great film, I really want to read the manga in the future.

Going through the original series of Planet of the Apes films… the first is by far the best but Beneath is a close second; Escape wasn’t too shabby either. I’ll watch the final two in due time.

I detest the final two. Yes, the first is by far the best.

And both films in the reboot are espectacular. Better than the original series, I believe.

Niiice. :slight_smile:

I finally got back from seeing Guardians of the Galaxy (sorta shocked I haven’t seen anyone really talking about it) but it was lots of fun, and there’s some really genuine laughs in it. Good songs too. :sunglasses:

Never even knew this existed until today; which, if you know me, is extremely unlikely:

Shut up and take my money.

Yes, I didn’t want to watch the trailer because it’s the kind of film I’d like to see frash and without that much information (even though the improtant plot points are already known by everyone).

Neverthless, that’s surely a must see. The director made Man on Wire, probably one of the best docummentaries in recent memory. Plus, it has an amazing indie cast. I’m particularly fond of Felicity Jones.

Spirit of Adventure - You see her in The Invisible Woman (2013)? Brilliant performance.
