Looks amazing, hopefully it'll be on par with Saving Private Ryan or Black Hawk Down.
I mean, damn, I'm going to keep begging my girlfriend to take me to see it for Valentine's Day.

apparently, Tinker Tailor Soldier Spy isnt good. my friend calls it 'Tinker Tailor Total Shite' and the only thing he remembers about it are bananas.
Chronicle looks fucking awesome though...
And so does In Time
If you can't/won't watch, basically you never age past 25, and we use time instead of money. The rich live forever, the poor die young. Mr Main Character starts robbing all the banks and giving poor people time.

that looks... wow. it does look like the Saving Private Ryan of our generation...

Can't wait to see the Sherlock Holmes sequel I really liked the first one.

 

[WolfThomas]

Hmm In Time actually looks interesting, I haven't really been thinking about any movies except the Avengers and the Dark Knight Rises.

I'll raise you a Girl With the Dragon Tattoo for a Pig With the Froggy Tattoo.

Also regarding that Act of Valor movie....hate to be a party pooper but that's propaganda. Unabashed propaganda. It honestly makes me queasy.

I really don't like the kind of movies like In time, it just seems like a silly premise, with an excuse for explosions, and shooting every five minutes.

Also, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo will never live up to the Swedish original. Why America needs to remake every single good foreign film is beyond me. I'm more than happy with the original, thank you very much.

Chronicle just looks weird, and stupid. I tire of these superpower movies that keep showing up on the box office.

Why the hell is another Paranormal Activity coming out, are they the new Saws or something? Ham fisted movies that Appeal to the lowest common denominator.

On the subject of Tin-Tin, stop raping my childhood you silly twats! That is all...

In fact, the only up, and coming movie that looks somewhat interesting to me is Contagion, but even that doesn't make me want to rush to the cinema, and watch it.

Oh well, guess I'll have to wait for the Dark Knight Rises before I go to the cinema again.

If I give it the benefit of the doubt, it's gun-porn for the Call of Duty generation. Otherwise it is a message movie, saying "worship the military, adore the soldiers, BECOME a soldier" it is a little creepy.

It seems it's endorsed by the Navy (as the actors aren't actors at all but real SEALs) I guess giving it the benefit of the doubt is silly, it is propaganda.

Personally, I'm really looking forward to Chronicle and The Avengers.

 

[AndyFromMonday]

They look pretty shit to be honest. In fact, the only movie I'm currently looking forward to is the Hobbit and that's assuming Peter Jackson doesn't screw up, what with the Hobbit being a children's book and all.


Also, why the hell does Hollywood feel the need to remake every single foreign film that penetrated the mainstream market?

 

[sheogoraththemad]

The avengers, girl with the dragon tattoo and of course the Rum Diary

 

[Vault101]

so are they setting the girl with the dragon tatoo in america? is danial craig playing blomkvist? (forgive the bad spelling) because I will give them credit in that thats kind of how I owuld imagine him looking

other than that..america...cut that shit out

anyway Im hopelessly out of touch with movies right now, I relaise Ive been devoting all my energy into games..I dunno there hardly ever seem to be any that interest me coming out..

 

[Delsana]

In Time looks better now with the newer trailer... which might mean it sucks without those scenes.

The Avengers looks like it may have too much hype to fulfill and thus fail.

I just saw Real Steel and that was REALLY GOOD and not what I expected.

The new Mission Impossible Ghost Protocol is solid.

 

[Delsana]

I am absolutely furious that the Americans had to make a bloody native version of The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. I'm sick of the Americans being too lazy to read subtitles and having to take intellectual property to put their stamp of authority on all forms of culture.

Personally, though, there are very few films which are enticing enough to make me want to watch. I think it's been a dismal year for films, and it may well take until the release of Rush before there's a film with subject matter that actually draws me to the cinema.

Subtitles destroy immersion for me.

Doesn't that mean it's more likely to be realistic and thus a good movie? Who cares if its propaganda, the pledge of allegiance is propaganda.

I am looking forward to this. I loved the first one.

So. Much. PROPOGANDA! But yeah, it looks like it will be a good movie.

OT: Anything by Spielberg, so Tintin, War Horse. Also, Sherlock Holmes 2, and...crap. Forgot.

The original wasn't some gold standard of film, it was kind of a shit movie tbh, the English version has a much better pedigree than the original, what with David motherfucking Fincher directing it. Hell it's likely to win the Oscar for best picture this year, provided the Oscars take a break and actually give awards to films that deserve them. I don't get the hate these remakes have been getting lately, the remake of "Let the Right One In" was actually better than it's original.

Well, I hate Daniel Craig with a passion of a thousand burning suns, so yeah, I have a solid reason not to like this new remake.

Obviously It isn't a gold standard, but it's a solid film, though I'm not sure if I prefer it over the last one, the Girl who kicked the Hornets Nest which despite what the critics say I thought was very well done.

The Girl who played with Fire was okay, but I prefer the other two.

Your not the only one. I pretty certain that me and my bro are going to watch it this Christmas (we always watch a film every year).
