trailers for upcoming movies that look awesome. (1 Viewer)

new there will be blood trailer, featuring more of jonny greenwood's score than the last one (they were streaming the score at the paramount website a few weeks ago but it got taken down... it sounded fucking amazing). daniel day-lewis ftw.

unicorns are shooting out of my nipples in excitement.

 

[walrusbear]

wow this looks tops

this and the new coen bros will be rocking the summer hard

tbw icecream, seen jesse james yet? thoughts?
i'm going this weekend. it's been hard keeping up with current releases

 

[icecreamdisco]

i liked jesse james a lot, until the coda which felt both long-winded and rushed at the same time. you have to see the film to get what i mean.

and the nick cave cameo was dumb.

 

[walrusbear]

just got back and i gotta say i was mighty happy with jesse james
coda could have been shorter - but i was content for the film to go forever
last sequence was particularly stunning

also saw rescue dawn and i have to agree with you
pretty standard fair, i was a bit disappointed

 

[icecreamdisco]

yeah i think the coda should've been only a few minutes, or it should've gone on longer, and gone to greater lengths in capturing ford's sense of desolation and madness. i loved the scenes of him performing in the recreative play.

dominik is certainly one to watch, and i hope affleck jr. gets recognised come awards season.

 

[walrusbear]

young affleck did very well. i wouldn't be surprised if the film gets snubbed altogether though

and it does make two from two for andrew dominik. i wouldn't mind him being a little more prolific though.

gabriel and halloween =]

trying to preserve a malick-like mystique, i guess.

I just caught Jesse James. Truly fantastic film, close to my favourite of the year. Strangely large number of walkouts in my cinema though (Macquarie, but a 10:30 Tuesday session).

Also saw Rescue Dawn - not sure why the dislike here, I thought it a really solidly done film - may not be Aguirre or Kasper Hauser, but I still thought it very good. The ending was a detraction for me somewhat, though.

Super-pumped for There Will Be Blood.

 

[icecreamdisco]

oh, i didn't dislike rescue dawn... in fact, it gets better the more i ignore some of the blatant hollywood conventions and remember the more offhand herzog-ian touches instead. and bale is awesome as always.

gonna try and see jesse james tomorrow. if i have one quibble about watching it at dendy newtown, it's the fact that the exit sign is so close below the screen, which distracts from the images somewhat, especially in a film with so much dim lighting and nighttime photography.

 

[icecreamdisco]

also saw into the wild last friday. really good; flawed perhaps, but in a way that's crucial to the overall shape and tone of the film. should really see penn's first two directorial efforts, as i loved the pledge as well.

gabriel and halloween =]

DAMN
gabriel was shit shit shit was a let down
and i just found out that halloween is r18+
:mad1:

i saw jesse james there and they didn't shut the freaking doors till about 40 minutes in :burn:
i would have closed it myself but i didn't want to turn around and miss some kind of magic

 

[walrusbear]

i finally caught inland empire last night and had a generally great time

i guess it's a fans-only affair, but i'm not sure why oz critics hated it so much. it was more coherent than i was led to expect - it had the same loose logic as his other movies. i found it sagging in some parts, and that beck song was just distracting

as for other movies
anyone seen/wanna see 'tell no one'. can't work out if it's a shitty generic french movie or a good generic french movie. i still need to catch control too, though it looks a tad pretentious

Juno, any film with Michael Cera and Jason Bateman together again has got to be good.

Went to a preview screening of that last week, thanks to FilmInk mag. Comes out officially Jan 17.
Was alright, mostly funny, corny at times.. had a Garden State-feel to it. Disappointed Michael Cera wasn't in it much despite being credited as 2nd starring role. Though what little scenes he had, he rocked (wouldn't have bothered seeing this if he wasn't in it at all).

Can't wait to see Sweeny Todd, Atonement, Rescue Dawn and 310 to Yuma.

bee movie might be good because it has jerry seinfeld in it

 

[UnIqUe_PrInCeSs]

omg I wan't to watch 'Prom night' as soon as possible!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RmVoBsPFX-0&feature=related


EDIT: I'm not really a fan of horror movies, so I hope it's not too scary

 

[spiny norman]

I came in here to facetiously add Prom Night.

Seeing it already in here has made my day.

 

[walrusbear]

so i just checked imdb to see if this is a remake
and there is a 1980 flick: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0081383/
with jamie lee curtis and leslie nielsen
i think i'll checkit
