08.23.09 | The preview for the movie looked insane, it's bound to be good with Scorsese at the helm. |
JacobsLadder
08.23.09 | Yeah, I'm dying to see the movie. |
iarescientists
08.23.09 | trailer has me a little skeptical
scorcese is at his best as a minimalist and this looks a little too over the top, but i'm hoping for the best |

08.23.09 | I loved No Country For Old Men and The Departed is one of my favorite movies so I'm totally pumped to see this.
also iarescientists, it doesn't really look like it's gonna be that complicated. Trailers do that... :) |

08.23.09 | Coen Brothers did No Country For Old Men :x |
iarescientists
08.23.09 | didn't say this was going to be complicated, i meant to say how taxi driver and the king of comedy are two of the most carefully executed depictions of a mentally unstable person's descent into madness, and from the looks of the trailer this seems a bit too overbearing in it's display of that descent, like it's going to hit the audience with a brick saying "LOOK HOW CRAZY HE IS NOW ISN'T THAT CRAZY"
btw movie got pushed back to february :(

08.23.09 | Dangit I mixed up the author of this and The Road. That's what I was trying to refer to earlier. Stupid me.
Btw The Road should be good - even if it's not really "new" at all anymore. |
thecheatisnotdead
08.23.09 | Heck yes to The Road. Once again, I could go either way based on the trailer, but the source material, cast, and the fact that they've taken so long (hopefully to work on getting things just right) make me think it has a lot of good stuff going for it. |

08.23.09 | You should be pretty satisfied with the last half, meng
Isn't Viggo Mortensen in The Road? Having read the book that sounds like it could be awesome |
foreverendeared
08.23.09 | too bad the release date for Shutter Island got pushed back until next year. Also The Road is gonna suck. have you seen the previews? it looks nothing like the book. They're gonna turn it into this big post-apocalyptic action movie when the book wasn't about that at all |
PuddlesPuddles
08.23.09 | Really?
...well that sucks |
foreverendeared
08.23.09 | yeah, i'm still gonna see it because i'm a fan of the book, but i'm more than just prepared to be disappointed, i'm expecting to be disappointed |
