Movies You Are Anticipating

[Meatplow]

What are some movies coming out recently or that you have on the backburner that you are looking forward to getting around to one day and actually watching? Alternatively discuss movies you have been anticipating and just watched, rate the experience.

For me recently it is Coonskin & Serpico. Coonskin because I enjoyed Fritz The Cat a lot so i'd like to see more Ralph Bakshi and the movie is described as the angriest animation ever made from some reviews I read online. Serpico because i'm reading an Al Pacino biography recently and I find him a fascinating guy and great actor in the films I have seen him in, Serpico is said to be one of his greatest roles.

Go.

[2muchket!]

The new Batman movie.

Thats it tbh

[Mr. Ron]

I hope the happening is good.....it looks interesting. Although M. Night Shyamalan is involved with it.

[class]

Dark Knight
Pineapple Express
RockNRolla

I think there was another...but I can't remember :(

[kattunlover69]

the Halo/Metal gear Solid/ world of warcraft movie...

See, it's tough for me because it's M. Night Shyamalan, but it's also Zooey D...:(

I'm really looking forward to The Dark Knight. I like the vision that Christopher Nolan had with Batman Begins, like making it less cartoonish and more psychological. You really can't go wrong with Christian Bale, Gary Oldman, Heath Ledger, Michael Caine, etc., and I'm looking forward to seeing what Maggie Gyllenhaal and Aaron Eckhart are going to be like.

I predict that's going to be the big blockbuster of this summer.

Oh, and even though I have no idea when it's supposed to come out, but Edward Norton's adaptation of Motherless Brooklyn by Jonathan Lethem should be good.

[Mr. Ron]

Zooey is in it? oo la la

[A Dead Modernist]

Mister Lonely - How can you not think, this is the greatest thing ever? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ckzRzhQDMrk
Dark Knight - Sure, why not.
Pineapple Express - Heard from reliable sources that this might actually work, plus I want to see DGG's more comedic side.
Shotgun Stories -

Shotgun stories looks interesting.

[Aficionado]

I'm slightly interested in Pineapple Express, though I have a gut feeling that it will suck. I just wish it's this summer's Superbad or somethin.

[Mr. Ron]

Pineapple Express is going to be terrible.

[static]

lies.

[Mr. Ron]

Truth.

[J Rad]

the Halo/Metal gear Solid/ world of warcraft movie...

ummm i wanns see cloviefield too...

those are the only ones from the top of my head

so basically you're pumped for every bad movie on this year's lineup

[BringHomeTheBacon]

Synecdoche, New York
Burn After Reading

[Aficionado]

I wish I could go to the Cannes film festival

but yeah that new Clint Eastwood film and I am also intrigued with BringHometheBacon's choices.

[static]

Truth.

lies.

[Mister_Che]

The Strangers

[Cocaine]

Synecdoche, New York

Yeah, this.

[simplephotographinthesun]

revolutionary road

[class]

Pineapple Express is going to be terrible.

It's gonna be funny when you're talking about how much you like Pineapple Express in a few months.

[Cocaine]

Test screenings are saying Pineapple Express is absolutely hilarious and surprisingly violent, hah. It looks awesome.

[planewreck]

Synecdoche, New York
The Strangers
Dark Knight

And yeah, probably Pineapple Express. That Shotgun Stories looks really great as well.

[Alf™]

Pineapple Express obviously.
Sin City 2.
New Ben Stiller movie.

That's really all that I can think of.

[J Rad]

i didn't know they were making a sin city 2

[Alf™]

and sin city 3

[J Rad]

oh shi

i hope they live up to the standard the first one set

that's one of my favorite movies

[EightMilesHigh]

There's rumour that Sin City 2 will introduce Antonio Banderas and Rachel Weisz.

[Mr. Ron]

It's gonna be funny when you're talking about how much you like Pineapple Express in a few months.

Doubt it.

BUT I will admit that I'm wrong if it is indeed a good movie. I just have a strong feeling right now that it won't be for some reason.

[Cocaine]

Have you seen the red band trailers for it? I think it looks pretty awesome.

[Time]

Most definitely Synecdoche, New York
Burn After Reading
The Dark Knight
Choke
probably others

[Pluperfect_Arson]

Dragonball, even though it will suck horribly.

I ANTICIPATE ITS ARRIVAL

[Gnarmageddon]

http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/entertainment/7411013.stm

lol

[Cocaine]

There is no Terminator franchise after Terminator 2. Everything else is a figment of your imagination.

[J Rad]

There's rumour that Sin City 2 will introduce Antonio Banderas and Rachel Weisz.

i hope these rumors are false

[Cocaine]

The Banderas role is between him and Depp. It was written for Depp, apparently.

[J Rad]

i would much prefer depp

banderas is fun in campy roles, but in a dark portrayal of a graphic novel any role would fit depp better than him

[Cocaine]

Sin City is campy.

Doesn't matter anyways, they haven't started working on it. Robert Rodriguez is too busy ruining Barbarella right now.

[J Rad]

when i think of campy movies i think of movies like desperado where there is implied realism but it's completely outdone by the level of humor in the writing

sin city is a different kind of camp

[planewreck]

Forgot about Choke. Looks promising. I can imagine it would be better as a film than a book.

[RunAmokRampant]

I hope the happening is good.....it looks interesting. Although M. Night Shyamalan is involved with it.

I read a supposedly real review of it that included the spoilers. If it is true, then by god this movie will go down as the most hilariously bad and embarrassing films ever made.

Films I'm looking foward to.

Dark Knight.
The Road.
Blood Meridian.
Ghost in the Shell live action.
Akira live action.
Jonathan Strange.

Yeh some of them arent' exactly close to release date but whatev.

[Cocaine]

Yeah, the Happening is getting torn apart and M. Night's comments aren't helping it. He said, and I quote:

If something happens during the movie and you think, "That’s dumb," it’ll be because whatever happened was actually too amazing for you to fully understand, or possibly a metaphor for something really crazy and cool.

[UmphreysHead]

The Pineapple Express.

[J Rad]

i'm holding out hope for the happening

from the trailers it at least looks decent and i'm interested to see the full scope of the script

allowing m. night to be involved in the writing and production is a gamble though

i make it a point not to base my opinions on the things posted on RT because everyone on there is a boring elitist prick

[Cocaine]

RT forums are lame yeah. The Happening trailer reminds me of the South Park based around Katrina and Global Warming, particularly the scene where they're running away from nothing in particular.

The new ones are apparently ultra violent though.

[Mr. Ron]

Yeah, the Happening is getting torn apart and M. Night's comments aren't helping it. He said, and I quote:

thats why I hate him

[J Rad]

thats why I hate him

think of it like this

if you directed a movie and it was getting slammed by critics, would you tell the public, "yeah this movie blows don't go see it i don't want your money" or would you try to defend it even if it made you sound like a tool

[Alf™]

oh and how to lose friends and alienate people

[class]

The Happening will just end with some aliens doing this to them or some stupid ****.

[RunAmokRampant]

Oh no, from the spoilers ive read, it's way more left field than that. Night's films have gone from films with good twists to films with twists for the sake of having twists.

[Cocaine]

I read there wasn't even a twist....

Maybe that's the twist, though.

[class]

I was gonna download the script...but after the link didn't work I gave up looking. Who cares...MNS sucks balls.

SIGNS?!?

are you ****in kidding me? if ONE person liked that movie i wanna shoot them. maddox (back in the day) gave me the lols on that movie

[Apocalyptic Raids]

the ones I can think of are Righteous Kill and Ashecliffe, although the latter is a long way off.

[RunAmokRampant]

I read there wasn't even a twist....

Maybe that's the twist, though.

Well yeah, your right. It isnt much of a twist but just how **** goes down at the end when everyone finds out why peeps are killing themselves and stuff. I

[Time]

I saw this on slashfilm: http://www.slashfilm.com/2008/05/16/m-night-shyamalans-the-happening-slammed-and-new-5-minute-video-clip/

[VomitStainedCretin]

Coonskin sounds uber from what I've read about it.

[Meatplow]

it was never released on DVD apparently :(

at least theres a nice VHS rip up on cinemageddon, just snatched it :) will watch later

[Cocaine]

Well yeah, your right. It isnt much of a twist but just how **** goes down at the end when everyone finds out why peeps are killing themselves and stuff.

Is the answer "Because they're in a Manny Shammy movie?". Because that'd do it.

[Gnarmageddon]

There is no Terminator franchise after Terminator 2. Everything else is a figment of your imagination.
Yeah, I guess. But Christian Bale is a f'ucking badass, so I'll at least give the first one he's in a chance.

[Luc214]

I hope the happening is good.....it looks interesting. Although M. Night Shyamalan is involved with it.

He can direct when he wants to.

I really can't wait for Sin City 2, Hellboy 2 and The Dark Knight. Other then that there's nothing immediate that's coming out.

There is no Terminator franchise after Terminator 2. Everything else is a figment of your imagination.

Hey guess what.

Terminator 3 was cool.

[Akira]

I really want Postal to show here.

Anticipating a Uwe Boll movie makes me feel dirty.

[Danger Bird]

I was trying not to obsess of The Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus and not read too much about it, but after Ledger died and they didn't know if it could go on, I went nuts and read all these script summaries and stuff. Still looking forward to it though.

[Spiney_Norman]

Just Dark Knight, really.

[Danger Bird]

Oh also another 09 movie that's sure to rule is Jim Jarmusch's Limits of Control

[charlesfishowitz]

The Dark Knight
Step Brothers

...that's about it.

[Aklerc]

The Dark Knight
Phantasmagoria - The Visions Of Lewis Carroll

[badtaste]

Hey guess what.

Terminator 3 was cool.

More like uncool.

The Dark Knight.
The Watchmen (I probably won't watch this, I'm interested in how it will turn out though... if that makes any sense).
The Incredible Hulk (It probably won't be too hot, but I have a thing for Marvel Comics projects).
Quantum of Solace

[Spiritofmosa]

1. The dark knight
2. The Incredible Hulk
3. The Happening
