all those movies look like syfy channel fodder, seriously mute the audio and watch them again, doesnt it look like a bunch of movies you'd take 5 seconds to figure out that look like garbage?
Well there goes my guess based on Bob's pitch of the concept, I assumed that Shadow Hunters, being supernatural entities, didn't have naughty bits, which can cause some problems in a relationship.Danial said:Quote from Wiki PS: MASSIVE SPOILERPsychedelicDiamond said:Can someone tell me what Bob didn't want to spoil about Mortal Instruments?
"During the attack, Luke and Clary get inside Valentine's lair. While Luke is distracted, Clary finds Valentine and Jace. Valentine reveals to them that he is actually Jace's father as well, making them siblings, shocking and horrifying both Jace and Clary, who by then realized that they have fallen in love with each other. Luke then returns to fight Valentine, along with Jace's help, but Valentine escapes to the Shadowhunter capital, Idris, where he has now hidden the Mortal Cup, which can used to create Shadowhunters. The Mortal Cup is one of three Mortal Instruments given to the first Shadowhunter by the angel Raziel, and if Valentine has them, he will create a whole army of Shadowhunters. Clary finds her mother, who is in a coma caused by a potion, and takes her to a hospital. In the meantime, Alec has been healed by Magnus Bane and he and Clary decide to start fresh. Afterwards, Clary and Jace meet at the Institute and express their frustration that they cannot be together like they once believed."
So yeah Incest
I see what Bob means
Well the sentient zombies in Warm Bodies look way prettier than the sentient ghouls from Fallout.sextus the crazy said:Is it just me, or does warm bodies seem like something ripped from the fallout series. humans hate all ghouls, even though non-feral ghouls are sentient and like normal people.
This must be the webcomic you're looking for: http://hijinksensue.com/2008/11/12/30-days-of-twilight/Steve the Pocket said:I remember reading some webcomic that parodied Twilight with a fake in-universe book series about a girl falling for a zombie. So Warm Bodies could be hilarious depending on how much they're leaning on that angle as opposed to making it the kind of movie most think of when they hear "romantic comedy". (I.e. straight romance story with some funny bits thrown in to broaden the potential audience.)
I am also surprised, and was kind of expecting it as an obvious one. If anything, it looks like THE one example of trying to follow Twilight's trail and being successful.Falterfire said:I'll third the surprise that Hunger Games wasn't mentioned at all. It completely fits the whole 'appealing to teenage girls' thing and has the added bonus of having already had one very successful movie. Obviously with only 3 books total it won't be the Next Big Thing for many years, but I think it's got a pretty good shot at least for the next year or two.
Of course they are going to make a 50 Shades of Grey Quadrology (they will split the third book in two), they will do anything to prevent development hell, since it will bring stupid amounts of money to the studios, so getting it out as fast as possible is the best option, and they will hire the prettiest underwear models as actors, kind of like transformers. Welcome to hell.Antonio Torrente said:If that movie ever comes up (still hoping it will end up in development hell but pretty sure it will still be made) I'm pretty sure they will cast those hacks from CW shows more specifically Gossip Girl.Scarim Coral said:Honestly the only one that I'm going to dread in the future is the film adaption to 50 Shade of Grey which apparently is in the work.
Need I remind you that book originally start off as a Twilight fanfic.
For some reason my straight A younger sister likes Hunger Games.Absolutionis said:I'm surprised that The Hunger Games wasn't mentioned. It's yet another blandly written love-triangle book series with an inexplicably "special" female lead based on a mythos mostly ripped from other sources. I guess the only thing it's lacking is monsters.
The mythos you are talking about is Battle Royale. Which its author claims she didn't even know BR when writing it. Yeah, typical American plagiarism. I'm surprised she gotten away and made a crapton of money with it.
Well maybe because the first movie of the Quadrology is out (They are going to make it a quadrology since Harry Potter and Twilight did it) it's not what's on the horizon as the video said, rather it's what's popular right now. They are going to strech it until 2015 at the least.hermes200 said:I am also surprised, and was kind of expecting it as an obvious one.

And I wouldn't be surprised if they stretch it out for some years. Without spoiling much, let me say that the 3rd book could be adapted into two movies, while the 2nd one barely being worth one.
I might actually like to see that one... maybe. Although that Mortal Instruments did actually look interesting. ...except for the love triangle part.Caramel Frappe said:I laughed harder at the scene in "Beautiful Creatures" where the table began to spin and the ladies are debating- until one of them screams which was utterly hilarious to me.canadamus_prime said:Yep that's Hollywood for you.DVS BSTrD said:If at first you do succeed
Twi, Twi, Twi again.
Incidentally, that Warm Bodies looks incredibly stupid, at least based on the scene where the zombie "falls" for the girl. Oh god... *facepalm*
"She's already closer to the darkness then I was!"
"I want you out of here-"
"AAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!"
lol wut.

Yo Dawg. I've heard you like a plot twist. So let me put a plot twist in your plot twist so you can twist the plot while twisting the plot.rayen020 said:'Kumagawa Misogi said:MetalMagpie said:Here's the very short version:MichaelMaverick said:Seconded.

The main character is a (seemingly) ordinary teenage girl who falls for a magical demon-hunting guy. Turns out he likes her too and they have a bit of a smooch. At the end they discover that they're actually brother and sister. Ouch.
Half brother and sister from the father's side so at least there won't be any problems if they have kids (that only applies if they had the same mother or there mothers were siblings).
Actually they are full brother and sister. Same mother, same father. Father took off with the boy after faking both their deaths, mother took off with the girl to get away from the world that took everything from her.
I'm thinking horribly wrong, esp considering certain other inevitable scenes... *shiver*Frostbite3789 said:It looks stupid in that really corny/cheesy kind of hilarious way.canadamus_prime said:Yep that's Hollywood for you.DVS BSTrD said:If at first you do succeed

Like they're going for that it seems, which can either go wildly right or horribly wrong.
Yeah kind of sad. Wonder if it's a good thing or a bad thing that Hollywood doesn't or can't try to cash in other fandoms. Twilight is horrible, but on the other hand comic book movies are getting to be quite good. Personally my preferred medium is fantasy, which outside of Lord of the Rings and Game of Thrones (the HBO treatment here is awesome!) it's mostly overlooked.Trishbot said:Just remember, people... Breaking Dawn part 2 opened to $141 million.... while Dredd opened to around $6 million.
You have no one to blame but yourselves.
they are not ________ and ______, by blood, father adopted him do to guilt over his experiments, however she does have a ________ by birth. All this happens in the 3rd book.JoaoJatoba said:Yo Dawg.

Searching about the twist on MI:CoB I came across this quote:
"As readers of the series, we know how the story plays out. We know that they aren?t brother and sister. (http://tmisource.com/2011/05/17/lily-collins-talks-about-clary-and-jaces-controversial-relationship/)"
Dunno if it's true though...
