Friends? Yeah I suppose you could call it that.

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
I knew they were working on a remake/adaptation/WHATEVER, but I had no idea how far along it was. Neat.
There's a new Green Lantern Trailer, like four minutes long.
I'm interested, but I'm still way more psyched for Captain America.
EDIT: Why do so many aliens have a british accent?

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
Paul doesn't. Which, incidentally, was a pretty good movie. If you can deal with the occasional stoner humour and the really long running gag, it's a great comedy for people who enjoy scifi.

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
Just watched a movie called "Monsters" and was pretty happy with it. It's billed as a postapocalytpic alien invasion type movie but it's really not a thriller. The meat of the movie really focused on life in that kind of a world and the experiences of two people as they try to find passage back to the US from Mexico. It's kinda surreal but I was a little scared in a few parts - that's not too hard
. Oh yeah and theres tentacles, so you can let your imagination run wild if thats your thing.

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
I'm still not sure how I feel about that movie. I watched it a few weeks ago, and while most of the movie was rather good, the ending just felt lacking. It rang hollow and seemed fairly anti-climatic after the last ten minutes was spent building up tension.
Other than that I rather enjoyed it.

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
Ronon the Barbarian! I'd go see it just for that! Jason Momoa looks weird without his facial hair, though! *Purrrr*
Also, yeah, Sin. My friend, who picked up the Sucker Punch soundtrack, pointed out that if you actually listen to it, it helps fill in story. Guess I should go see the movie before I borrow it off of him, heh.

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
I'm seeing it simply because the setting is very interesting to me. I love low fantasy, perhaps more than most other fantasy sub-genres simply because I can actually believe that they need these mighty heroes rather than just going "Mr. Wizard cast your big spell," every few minutes.
I've always meant to read the original books, and I do hope the movie gets an 18A or R here in Canada just to show the stuff that Howard had in his stories.

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
I actually heard about a Duke Nukem movie around the time the first Resident Evil movie was being filmed. Dwane Johnson was supposed to play Duke.

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
Having enjoyed the original five movies (except the third one, which I found much too boring) I'm looking forward to seeing this one. I suppose it makes sense to skip a remake of two and three after the way they ended the original remake... I wonder if they'll do five.

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
My guess is that it'll be a trilogy at most - remaking the series as whole.

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
Watching the trailer it kinda reminded me of I, Robot but with apes. If I'm right, that sounds like a pretty neat idea even if it's weird and kinda creepy. I've always loved monkeys (they dominate my collection of stuffed animals), but not like that. Also the part with the gorilla jumping at the helicopter is a King Kong reference, no?

I thought it was the guy who played Kirk in the Star Trek reboot?

Re: Random movie talky stuff.
It's not Brad Pitt. It's Chris Hemsworth as Thor. Ray Stevensen is also cast as Volstagg which makes me want to see this movie cause Ray is kick ass (Titus Pullo was kick ass).
Still, I liked Brad Pitt in Troy, and I generally like Brad Pitt in movies (Death loves peanut butter... who knew?). Even if he was Thor I wouldn't toss the movie aside so quickly.
