^^Are you stoked or are you stoked??..^^ i heard "The Book of Eli" is quite interesting; haven't watched it though.. "Clash of the Titans" looks pretty dope.. "Last Airbender" is gonna be rad.. The "A-Team", wow, Mr. T (no, not BC's taneepak) looking as svelte as ever with that ever popular mohawk.. "Prince of Persia" is gonna be insane...but probably cos of the special fx.. heck most of them are special fx injected..
Looking forward to this - Tim Burton is a master of the surreal; partner him with Johnny Depp (one of my fave actors)and you get winners. Already having great apprehensions about this - imagine the Sands of Time, The Warrior Within, The Two Thrones and (gasp) Prince of Persia (2009) all mixed into one. The graphics or whatever wizadry might be great but I am not going to accept the idiotic mix of the above - most especially when it will spoil the great stories of Sands of Time and imagine my horror when they revealed that elements of POP2009 will be included. Will it be the same without Mr Miyagi? Toy Story was very good, Toy Story 2 was excellent. Let's hope they can last the mile in this one.
I just caught this Avatar in 3 D last nite and all the hype about this movie is true! I was blown away by the spectacular CGI ......woohoo... ya, I think it's more like the futuristic Last Samurai...a warrior turning against his own race....helping the underdogs against the imperialists. Go catch this movie (preferably in 3 D) if you have not watched it yet....highly recommended.
Saw 2 new ones and 2 from last yr.. ..got a chance to see these recently: - "The Book of Eli" - Has a lot of spiritual reference & symbolism to Christianity. But the cinematography is pretty interesting. Of course, you throw in Denzel Washington & Gary Oldman in there and they make up for the movie having so-so action sequences & so-so story. Btw, Denzel did all the kungfu, chop-chop moves. - "Legion" - story is kinda similar to the "Book of Eli"; a "savior", this time in the form of Michael the angel, coming to save a group of folks fighting against a bunch of zombies in the middle of the desert. Not worth seeing. - "Up in the Air" - This is a semi-romantic drama movie w/bits of funny portions thrown in, yet one can relate the story to the current economic situation. - "Blind Side" - Finally saw this. This i must say is a pretty good (based on a true story) movie. Good story, good acting. Overall, one of those very inspirational wholesome family movie w/a touch of comedy thrown in.
the craze for Avatar is not over yet, 7th consecutive week no. 1 in US... http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/news/e3i7da84139be87c4e2b446f9ee9fbb3297
True Legend, another film created by the masters of Matrix kung Fu effects coordinator! It may not be as original as the fall away dodging of bullets in variable sequential shots but it must be good from a choreography angle!
for me personally, the story is average at best. acting is average. special fx is what got it over the top.
Saw these recently.. ..just saw these recently: - "Shutter Island" - A mesmerizing film & will keep you interested, with good plot and great acting, throughout. They gave clues to the ending throughout most of the film, but most likely one won't find out what really happened til the end. - "Cop Out" - Comedy film with average storyline (tons of profanity). - "From Paris with Love" - Typical popcorn type movie with some sprinkle of James-bond/MacGyver type of action. Story is not there but will only keep you interested with the action and special fx sequences. - "The Wolfman" - Story didn't keep me interested. Average movie at best. - "Valentine's Day" - Another romantic comedy movie. Good family type story.
keep it coming Chris, with my lil' one around, it will take me years to be back to the moviehouse again.... only managed to catch Jackie Chan's Little Big Soldier during CNY, good for laugh but unexpected ending...
