tumbleweed the wanderer	Fri Aug 01 14:40:20 "Sharktopus Vs. Pteracuda" is tomorrow (Aug 2) on SyFy almost certainly not as good as Sharknado 2... but gotta watch for Conan

Cherub Cow Member	Fri Aug 01 14:53:20 I can't wait! ;p .. The Possession of Michael King looks stupid.. kind of a similar to 'Deliver Us From Evil'.. just over-produced, religious horror. November Man looks okay: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-m8V7G7e7gw Pierce Brosnan training a new assassin or something. Really hope I can make it to the theater this weekend before Lucy gets pulled :(
Cherub Cow Member	Mon Aug 25 21:57:02 Automata (October 10th) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Yfy2I2R5-g Looks nice. Another Isaac Asimov 3 laws movie (like "I, Robot"), though this one looks more serious and seems to borrow future styles and posthuman questions from Blade Runner.
McKobb Member	Tue Aug 26 10:05:44 Budget of 15 million, but looks ok.
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Aug 30 08:43:14 Apparently Underworld will be "rebooted" .. which makes no sense to me. Just continue the story, don't start it all over again.. :/
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Aug 30 08:47:55 ..and of course it's about money. Should have figured.. so now it "makes sense": http://www...hise-Being-Rebooted-66956.html And apparently it didn't have enough of a U.S. audience. Pander to the proles!
Hood Member	Sat Aug 30 13:11:17 Best Underworld is still the first one. "Just continue the story" I'm not sure I'd want to continue from the Awakening story... That movie was sort of bad.
McKobb Member	Sat Aug 30 13:58:08 With so many original creative scripts out there it's sad that reboots take away funds, understandable due to branding and all that, but sad.
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Aug 30 17:38:07 Awakening's story was definitely messed up, but I have a weird.. maybe sadomasochistic affinity to stories that make mistakes but have to move past them >:D
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Aug 30 17:39:13 "understandable due to branding and all that, but sad." defs :/
hood Member	Sat Aug 30 21:39:30 Heh.
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Aug 31 23:37:29 [Point Break remake schedule for Summer 2015] http://www...r-man-star-teases-point-728354 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1 NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Aug 31 23:43:58 a weird movie to remake how do you improve on Swayze and Keanu
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Aug 31 23:56:01 only be considering box office earnings :/
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Aug 31 23:56:20 *by lots of typos tonight
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Sep 07 17:17:25 Atlas Shrugged Part III will have limited release on September 12th (this Friday). Should be funny to see them break their own continuities again. Laura Regan (she was the lead in 2002's "They") plays Dagny this time, and it looks like all the other characters have new actors too.. Otherwise, Zero Theorem in 2 weeks!!! :D
Cherub Cow Member	Thu Sep 11 01:20:11 possibly the new batmobile: http://i.imgur.com/nBZU3Ch.jpg
Cherub Cow Member	Thu Sep 11 01:20:16 and moars: http://spl...-batmobile-revealed-1632875415
Cherub Cow Member	Thu Sep 11 03:05:57 This looks good: "Before I Go To Sleep" (October 31st) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtSzAEvBIK0 Sort of "Memento"+"50 First Dates", so it's a thriller about a character (Nicole Kidman) whose memory resets after sleeping, except people have been lying to her and murder.
Cherub Cow Member	Fri Sep 12 00:32:07 "The Drop" came out this weekend. Looks good: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7lCiDIcqMe0 With Noomi Rapace and Tom Hardy. And not that it's a selling point in itself, but this was James Gandolfini's last movie. Def seeing it
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Sep 21 17:47:50 John Wick (October 24th) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RllJtOw0USI :D Action movie with some pretty cheesy launch-into-vengeance clichés, but it's a Keanu Reeves movie directed by a stunt coordinator (Chad Stahelski), so the action should at least be entertaining :p Should also be interesting to see if Chad Stahelski did the same thing that Scott Waugh (Need for Speed director) did, which was to focus way too much on his strengths (stunt direction) at the expense of ... basically everything else :D
Cherub Cow Member	Wed Oct 01 03:08:42 October has arrived!! Yay!! Horror movie theater time!! :D :D
Cherub Cow Member	Wed Oct 01 03:28:46 October Horror/Sci-Fi - "Where the Devil Hides" (October 9th) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RYLRPqHY0fk - "Dracula Untold" (October 9th) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_2aWqecTTuE - "Automata" (October 10th) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3Yfy2I2R5-g - "Housebound" (October 16th) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BT1KcYiPb4I - "Ouija" (October 23rd) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xBLmBdn2QF8 - "Stonehearst Asylum" (October 23rd) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K4vXJdAC-24 - "The Babadook" (October 23rd) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k5WQZzDRVtw - "ABCs of Death 2" (October 30th) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w9eP4GEXM1w - "Before I Go To Sleep" (October 31st) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OtSzAEvBIK0
McKobb Member	Fri Oct 03 11:12:47 What do you think of Gone Girl? I don't think I could watch the movie, the book maybe.
Cherub Cow Member	Fri Oct 03 17:50:18 I'm worried about Ben Affleck's presence, but it's a David Fincher movie (Se7en, Fight Club director), so it's going to be in my theater marathon list for tomorrow :)
Damian DB Moderator	Sat Oct 04 13:04:16 I read the book.. the book is twisted...
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Oct 04 19:52:13 Excellent >:D btw, Zero Theorem can be streamed on Amazon meow: http://www...em-Terry-Gilliam/dp/B00MW73SCG
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Oct 05 14:02:52 My theater still has Guardians but it pulled Tusk... oh cruel, cruel world ;)
State Department Member	Sun Oct 05 23:44:21 Dracula Untold... a cloud of bats mimicking his movements and flattening entire armies. There's the subtle Hollywood touch we know and love.
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Oct 11 17:03:57 Off to see Dracula! Hope there's not too much CGI :D
McKobb Member	Sat Oct 11 17:49:59 Just every other frame.
McKobb Member	Sat Oct 11 17:49:59 Just every other frame.
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Oct 12 19:57:23 The Group Hopper http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CnTltDzqhzM
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Oct 12 22:55:35 lol.. a good treatment of the YA-Novel turned movie virus :D
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Oct 18 18:33:29 Autómata ended up being only limited release (only one theater near me even had it, and only for three days), but Amazon has it online [streaming rental/purchase]: http://www...ntonio-Banderas/dp/B00OCEDVW4/
McKobb Member	Wed Oct 22 21:27:38 http://youtu.be/tmeOjFno6Do Avengers: Age of Ultron
Cherub Cow Member	Wed Oct 22 22:08:06 Oh wow, and set for May 1st! Thought it'd be another year of individual Marvel movies before the band got back together. And without a DC movie I might care ;D
Cherub Cow Member	Thu Oct 30 19:47:20 Trying to decide ... "Before I Go To Sleep" or "Nightcrawler" tonight.. hmm..
OsamaIsDaWorstPresid Member	Fri Oct 31 14:51:53 http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0758781
Cherub Cow Member	Fri Oct 31 15:49:30 Uwe Boll directing... must be good!
Cherub Cow Member	Thu Nov 06 23:39:48 lots of work to do this weekend, but Interstellar has been released into the wild.. might have to make time for it
Cherub Cow Member	Thu Nov 13 01:48:51 Dumb and Dumber To tomorrow!!
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Nov 15 17:37:58 Seeing it soon! :D
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Nov 16 11:13:10 Kirk Cameron wants people to know that many have Christmas all wrong. It's not a Christian holiday with pagan origins, but a Christian creation through and through. In his new film, "Kirk Cameron's Saving Christmas," the former "Growing Pains" star and popular evangelical figure told the Christian Post he's taking aim at all the people "who really want to put a big wet blanket on the celebration." http://ima...-camerons-saving-christmas.png The "Growing Pains" star dismisses theories that Christmas is derived in the pagan celebration of Winter Solstice in "Saving Christmas," offering viewers a Biblical reference to items such as the Christmas tree instead. Furthermore, the film reveals Cameron's take on Santa Claus, the three wisemen, and why Christmas is celebrated on Dec. 25 each year. that should be interesting
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Nov 16 13:50:12 Best movie of the century??? (which, btw, was the ridiculous tag they were putting on recent Interstellar previews)
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Nov 16 14:46:43 I want to see "The Theory of Everything" today but I wonder if Birdman will still be in theaters next week or if Hunger Games will force it out.. :/
tumbleweed the wanderer	Sun Nov 23 17:55:04 maybe nothing will go wrong this time http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tvdIL7pUjcg
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Nov 23 18:43:24 Oh kewl. Didn't realize how far along they were
The Children Member	Tue Nov 25 14:23:03 it not what i expected. http://www...hread=70808&time=1416946821433 it...looks like a cheap b monster movie? but at same time, it is a big name movie so no cheap special effects 2 be expected?
Cherub Cow Member	Tue Nov 25 23:49:03 Time for Hunger Games, pt3, pt1 !
The Children Member	Fri Nov 28 10:05:44 and so it begins. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMOVFvcNfvE
Cherub Cow Member	Fri Nov 28 12:34:02 First thought that that was for another Star Wars videogame or something. A year away, though. Whatevas
McKobb Member	Fri Nov 28 12:40:19 Some major nostalgia seeing the MF fly again, not to mention the x-wing. The pets have SW nicks. Fitz is rebel-1, the orange cat is gold-leader, Zack is bark-vader, zip is jabba the mutt, et al.
Cherub Cow Member	Fri Nov 28 13:00:20 This time you'll get to see the Millennium Falcon in CGI ;p
McKobb Member	Fri Nov 28 13:11:18 I don't mind CGI as long as it's done right. I was trained in Maya at art school and have had several friends go on to do CGI for flicks including the matrix movies.
McKobb Member	Fri Nov 28 13:14:12 Not that the matrix CGI was particularly good, mind.
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Nov 30 00:47:57 Have seen peeps working on Maya.. might have to look into that. .. Does anyone have recommendations for a thoughtless pop movie that would be on streaming now? Like, I was looking at Hercules.. might watch Edge of Tomorrow again, though.. I just need a meth fix
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Nov 30 00:48:42 can't decide if I want to give "The Signal" a chance..
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Nov 30 01:01:09 "Honeymoon" instead http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OrSh2CHmEW4
Cherub Cow Member	Mon Dec 01 18:20:14 December Pop Movie Reminder! - Exodus: Gods and Kings {12 December} - The Hobbit, Part 3 {17 December} - Night at the Museum, Part 3 {19 December} Imitation Game was supposed to come out last weekend, but apparently that was only in NYC, L.A., and Pyongyang. The worst cities shouldn't get rewarded like that, but I guess it's a humanitarian thing. January should be fun: - Taken 3 {9 January} - Predestination {9 January} (looks like Timecop! ;D ) Looks like Taken 3 undid the work of the first two by having Famke Janssen die in the first five minutes, but life can be crazy when you party naked.
The Children Member	Sat Dec 06 08:13:17 shit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CN__WyMfEKw
Peter Walsh Member	Sat Dec 06 10:33:22 http://www...ays-peter-jackson-9899935.html No more Tolkien films after The Battle of the Five Armies “Tolkien has become a monster, devoured by his own popularity and absorbed by the absurdity of our time,” Tolkien’s son Christopher told Le Monde in 2012. “The chasm between the beauty and seriousness of the work and what it has become has overwhelmed me. The commercialisation has reduced the aesthetic and philosophical impact of the creation to nothing. There is only one solution for me: to turn my head away.”
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Dec 06 14:50:28 lulz. So making The Hobbit into an action movie series -wasn't- a good idea? ;D ... " shit http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CN__WyMfEKw " Hopefully those effects still weren't finished when they made that trailer, because that looks really terrible. Sad when modern blockbusters still haven't caught up with James Cameron's 1991 methods... was hoping they would move forward with Terminator Salvation's work, instead it looks like Terminator 3 again :/
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Dec 20 00:27:31 2nd Mad Max trailer released: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OGQZ0mE3UgQ {movie out May 15th} Looks really good! I haven't had to bother with my "don't watch trailers for movies I want to see" rule for a while because there hasn't been much that looks really interesting, but I stopped watching this one after 30 seconds. Also just looked up the director; it's George Miller! He directed the other Mad Max movies, so it shouldn't just be a bad remake — should be very good
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Dec 20 00:28:44 "2nd Mad Max trailer" meaning the second official trailer, not that it's the second Mad Max :p
McKobb Member	Sat Dec 20 00:52:27 The Road Warrior was awesome.
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Dec 20 01:51:48 Yes!
Cherub Cow Member	Mon Dec 22 17:47:33 This looks really good: "The Age of Adaline" {release of April 24th} http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=clbSd2JzAqc Not a big fan of Blake Lively, but it looks like this was a great role. Even ignoring the M83 and Susanne Sundfør song in the background (which could make anything seem cool), the story and perspective make it worth looking forward to. Dolphinately on my short list of future good movies :p
Cherub Cow Member	Mon Dec 22 18:06:12 Other things.. The Phoenix Project {16 January} http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WhcnhcpGs6s (scientists make a reanimator machine; trailer only gives the setup, not how it will go) Dark Summer {9 January} http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4Zj0mua5oJk (teen deals with ghost of dead friend. Could be lame; seems like a bad metaphor for technology replacing interaction, where his failure to actually know this person results in horrors) True Story {Sundance festival} http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y_NiP_bqlns James Franco and Jonah Hill drama about a killer who takes the identity of Hill's character. Looks okay, but not out for mass release until April.
Cherub Cow Member	Mon Jan 05 06:36:14 In keeping with producers stealing each other's scripts, similar to "The Phoenix Project" will be.. "The Lazarus Effect"/"Reawakening" {27 February} http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2918436/ (reanimator situation, this time starring Olivia Wilde and Donald Glover oddly enough) Apparently Relativity Media has been having promotional issues with this.. maybe they rushed to get it in theater (not a surprise; stolen script movies always rush production, either because they stole it and want to be first or theirs was stolen and they don't want to seem like the copy). Right now they don't seem to have the trailer online, but the trailer has made it to theaters... Looks good, anyways :)
Cherub Cow Member	Tue Jan 06 18:46:55 Good Kill {5 September} http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGGpSemB_hs This one isn't out for a while but puts Ethan Hawke and "Gattaca" director Andrew Niccol back together again for a story about a drone pilot who starts doubting his role in impersonal war..
Cherub Cow Member	Wed Jan 07 04:10:49 I guess.. this is happening: Marvel's Ant-Man {17 July, 2015} http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_RUR_OqHSCM
Cherub Cow Member	Mon Jan 12 04:22:21 Lazarus Effect trailer went up a few days ago: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1Ks6JqLzVTA
Cherub Cow Member	Mon Jan 12 04:28:18 Oh and Ethan Hawke's Predestination movie (the TimeCop-looking one) might not make it to theaters, but they have it on demand via Amazon ($7.99) and iTunes ($6.99)...
Cherub Cow Member	Fri Jan 23 00:25:37 The trend of making 80s horror into found-footage seems to be going strong. This looks like maybe a found-footage version of Scanners: The Atticus Institute (was released 20 January) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ykHqyClnz1g - $4.99 on iTunes And The Phoenix Project made it to VOD also. Probably going to pick that to watch this weekend... kind of annoying how few horror movies make it to theater anymore
McKobb Member	Sun Jan 25 00:23:44 I wish Seventh Son was Card's book.
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Jan 25 18:09:23 cardinal from UGT? did card write stuff like that?
McKobb Member	Sun Jan 25 22:12:44 Orson Scott Card, lol. The guy who wrote Ender's Game.
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Jan 25 23:33:00 .. that makes much more sense :D
tumbleweed the wanderer	Tue Jan 27 15:36:54 Chris Pratt could be the next Indiana Jones
McKobb Member	Tue Jan 27 16:11:37 No he can't. There can only be one. He can be Ohio Jones.
Cherub Cow Member	Sun Feb 01 17:28:51 I wonder if all movies will be remade with Chris Pratt in the leading role.
Cherub Cow Member	Fri Feb 06 17:21:55 Even though Seventh Son looks stupid I'll see it anyways because I hate myself and want to die :) Nir-vinna playing that song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-dAIz2FfmA
McKobb Member	Fri Feb 06 17:26:20 brains in the cornflakes!
McKobb Member	Fri Feb 06 17:40:57 "You had some dreams, now theres brains in your cornflakes, brains in your cornflakes..." from the song Kurt Cobain for reference
Cherub Cow Member	Fri Feb 06 18:00:46 poor Kurt ;p
The Children Member	Sat Feb 07 09:32:27 this shit doesnt need a reboot. it needs 2 be buried. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gl5cKxWGPsY
McKobb Member	Sat Feb 07 09:52:38 Awesome, I hope they don't use that gay Dr. Doom.
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Feb 07 23:27:02 "it needs 2 be buried." ..have to agree, but I've never been a fan of Fantastic 4. And it looks like they'll try to latch onto the serious atmosphere trend, but does that even make sense for Fantastic 4? I mean, I'm still going to go see it though ;D
McKobb Member	Thu Feb 26 17:29:25 Will Smith staging a comeback after earth.
McKobb Member	Wed Mar 04 13:38:50 Marvel's Avengers: Age of Ultron - Trailer 3: http://youtu.be/JAUoeqvedMo
McKobb Member	Wed Mar 04 13:38:55
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Mar 07 19:02:12 Probably seeing Chappie tomorrow. It may not be good, but I like Neill Blomkamp's ultraviolence, so whatever
tumbleweed the wanderer	Wed Mar 18 13:47:22 "Sharknado 3: Oh Hell No!" will air Wednesday, July 22 at 9 p.m. Syfy
McKobb Member	Wed Mar 18 14:57:08 How was chappie?
Cherub Cow Member	Wed Mar 18 15:06:24 Reviewed it over here: http://www...hread=71043&time=1426481590267 Short version: "was good. Not a lot of ultraviolence (which would have made it fun if everything else had failed), but it was still a pretty okay movie. Not crucial, but good."
Cherub Cow Member	Sat Mar 21 22:11:40 This just came out for VOD: "Backcountry" (2015-03-20 release) http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=46uwmzTf5nA It's basically like "The Edge" (1997) in that a people-eating bear stalks in the wilderness, except it was done in a semi-found footage style like that "Open Water" (2003) movie. Weirdly, it's being rated highly on Rotten Tomatoes (which usually hates horror movies by default). That probably means that it's a terrible movie... Can't decide whether or not to download :/
McKobb Member	Sun Mar 22 03:32:53 Looks like it might be worth a look-see.
Cherub Cow Member	Mon Mar 23 18:03:57 I mean, I think we all agree that the world often needs government-sanctioned, systematic murder.
