Upcoming movies = insane

[gim73]

Yeah, Legion. Personally, if I wanna see angels getting their asses handed to them, I would demand a movie for Simon Green's Darkside series.

 

[kend1]

That's just Legion.
I think it's a comic book adaptation.

YEah that trailerr was fucked up! I might still go see it though.

That movie looked interesting until I noticed Nick Cage will be in it. I've never realized it, but every Sci-Fi movie with Cage tends to be boring.

Uhh... Nicolas Cage isn't going to be in it...

Furthermore, wasn't there an older Alien movie called The Third Kind?

So...the Fourth Kind would be...Aliens? Again? I'm confused.

It was Close Encounters of the Third Kind. The reason this movie is called the fourth kind is explained in the trailer. It says something along the lines of "When a UFO is sighted, it is called an encounter of the first kind. When evidence is collected, it is known as an encounter of the second kind. When contact is made with extraterrestrials, it is the third kind. The next level, abduction, is the fourth kind." so it's talking about something different. The third kind in Close Encounters of the Third Kind is referring to something different.

I think you're talking about this:


Apparently it's about God sending a bunch of angels to wipe out the human race. Mankind's only hope is a group of misfits holed up in a diner, led by the Archangel Michael. So...I might see it, but does look kind of crappy.

Can anybody here tell me how to get the demon ice cream man scream face as my avatar!!?? That would be so awesome!

EDIT: Success!

I saw zomnbieland with my freinds today. It was good. But something me and my freinds talked about even before we started talking about the movie was the coming atractions. All the movies we saw were insane and looked so outlandish. Here is just a list of weird shit I saw.

So the first thing that I saw was definetly the weirdest. Its this old lady talking to this pregnate lady. She askes when the baby is due and then say "Its gunna burn in hell lady". The husband comes over and demands an apology. The old lady, this ordinary women, bites the mans face, climbs on the cealing, and start breathing fire! A cop comes out of nowher with a shotgun and kills the women. Ok.... But then some really freaky shit goes down. The man who was bitten, comes back to life, and leads the fight against HEAVEN. The good guys are the bad guys!!?? Than An ice cream man shows up and streches it body parts so its 12 feet tall and starts screaming and I am just sitting in my seat like "WTF IS GOING ON!!??"

Looks like I have to go right now and cant tell you about the other movies so when I get here tomarow, I will update it. What do you think directors are smoking these days?

Gee OP, you've ruined half the film for us! I don't have to see it now.

 

[Flamezdudes]

Seem's funny. I hope the new Cirque Du Freak film isn't horrible, i love Darren Shan's books.

 

[Mr.Squishy]

Legion looks like a very very very boring generic action flik...though that's just my opinion

 

[AndyFromMonday]

I don't know what they're smoking, BUT I WANT SOME.

Seconded.


Man, the trailer for Legion is awesome. Old lady on the ceiling ftw!

It's quite hard to see to be honest. Also someone could probably make that animated for you over at the Avatar Design Team thread.

Thanks. I posted a request on the forum because I dont know who to send a pm to. Doenst look like I got any replys though.

 

[Go Fighting In The War Room]

Wow.... that movie sounds psychotic...

 

[EMFCRACKSHOT]

Yeah, that movie looks cheap and crappy. Definately not going to see it

 

[Polarix]

In my humble opinion, directors aren't smoking enough... I haven't seen a good movie since Jurassic Park (Not that that was a trippy movie or anything, but I love trippy movies and Jurassic Park is the only worthwhile movie in my opinion). We need more stuff like Pink Floyd's The Wall. If you think you've just described a WTF movie, watch The Wall. I'll wait.

By the way, what's that movie you were talking about? I'd be willing to give it a watch when it comes out.
EDIT: Nevermind, that movie looks like it fucking sucks.

First off, I applaud this guy as Jurassic Park is still one of my favorite movies and I saw that back when I was 4 or 5.

As to the question. I saw the same preview for the Legion and I was as equally thrilled as the vast majority here seems to be. Then again, a lot of movies coming out soon seem to be following a similar trend. They either have to have vampires, zombie-like creatures, or just the undead in general. I don't know about you, but I'm getting sick of everyone trying to ride the "Twilight" express thinking vampires and shit are cool just because that movie was successful to a bunch of 13 year old girls.

But that all seems to be this year. next year looks to be a bit more interesting than most of the crap coming from this year.

On an unrelated note, a decent movie I saw recently was Surrogates. Not the best movie, but certainly worth a look at if you have the time to go check it out.

Well I think that some of the comedies out right now like Zombieland, The Informant and The Invention of Lying look like okay movies but I agree that most of them look like they are going to be bad.

Legion looks really bad however, I mean the crazy grandma part was funny but I'm not going to watch it just because of that.

Uhh... Nicolas Cage isn't going to be in it...

He's in the trailer.
Look at <color=cyan>0:47, <color=cyan>1:07... oh, wait a minute. Well... he looks like Nicolas Cage... Nevermind, sorry.

It's supposed to be true events and based on actual interviews and video, and the only celebrity is supposed to be Milla Jovovich and she comes out and says that she's an actress. I don't know how much of it is actually true, however, but I don't think that they would try to cram people like Nick Cage into a movie like this.
