Being optimistic Emp?
By the looks of the trailer there are plenty of big breasted, scantily clad schoolgirls, blood-gushing zombies and copious amounts of life-threatening farting!
Cannot tear my eyes away from that, the multiple rectal impaling in particular ...
Although I do wish Japanese comics and film could move beyond its St. Trinian's phase so I could actually watch some of it without fearing I'll be put on some kind of register.
Ladies and gentlemen, I am reasonably confident that upcoming Japanese splatter erotica Red Sword breaks new ground on a number of levels. It features werewolves and a katana-wielding heroine, for one thing. It also openly advertises the breast size of one of its stars in the trailer.
I feel I need to see this:

When is that RAID on? We could have a board outing to go see it.Year, Raid looks great fun. Certainly the only Frightfest film that floats my boat. Unfortunately, it's on at half eleven on the Saturday night.
The Bourne Legacy (http://boxofficebuz.com/film_clip.php?movie_id=1332&video_id=4657)
This looks appropriately anti-heroy for Summer. And the dude who's playing lead seems to have been slowly pushing his way to the front via MI4: Ghost Protocol.
The story follows Dusty, a yoga instructor from Colorado, who is on a desperate rescue mission to save her crazy brother Derek, a conspiracy theorist who is convinced Osama Bin Laden is still alive, despite having been buried at sea. In Afghanistan, Dusty falls in with a team of NATO Special Forces on a secret assignment. Turns out Derek is not so crazy after all, and that Osama has returned from his watery grave and is making an army of zombie terrorists. When the group crashes headlong into the growing zombie apocalypse, Dusty and the troops must find and destroy the root of the zombie insurgency before it infests the rest of the world.
Half-man, half-cyborg: Manborg. Killed while battling the forces of hell, a supersoldier is brought back from the dead in order to fight an army of Nazi vampires and demons led by the nefarious Count Draculon. Cue kung-fu killing, stop-motion monster battles, hoverbikes, robots, demons and a character named Doctor Scorpius.
From Z-grade director/FX whiz Steven Kostanski (Lazer Ghosts 2: Return to Laser Cove) comes Manborg, an unashamed and utterly unexplainable paean to the world of zero-budget, VHS-only 80s horror sci-fi. Ridiculous, chaotic and filled with pretty much every single schlock culture reference point you'd care to name, Manborg is the cult film to end all cult films.
As a Ellory fan, I'm quite looking forward to watching Rampart. I heard an interview with Woody Harrelson on radio 4 yesterday where the interviewer pissed him off by raising the subject of crime in his own recent family history.
Wow... beautiful!
Frankenweenie, new 3D black-and-white stop motion-animated film, directed by Tim Burton, and it is a remake of the Burton's 1984 short film of the same name.

Very Iron Council
The 12 O'CLOCK BOYS are a notorious urban dirt bike pack in Baltimore -- popping wheelies and weaving at excessive speeds through traffic, the group impressively evades the hamstrung police. In Lotfy Nathan's wild, dynamic documentary (three years in the making), their stunning antics are envisioned through the eyes of young adolescent Pug - a bright kid from the Westside obsessed with the riders and willing to do anything to join their ranks. Premiering to critical acclaim at the SXSW and Hot Docs Film Festivals (where Nathan won the HBO Emerging Artist Award), 12 O'CLOCK BOYS provides a compelling and intimate personal story of a young boy and his dangerous, thrilling dream.http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6E7f0uLoFnw

Different film, same franchise. I'm currently uninterested in any movie which isn't made entirely from Lego, and believe the producers of Son Of God have missed a golden opportunity by not taking this route.
Now let's be clear about this: I find Transformers movies hard going, and I thought No. 3 was close to being the worst thing I've ever seen committed to film, but while this is a terribly badly-made trailer, it also looks like the film might be fun... At least I can tell the dinobots apart.
I just don't get it - it looks to be a nice "kooky" affair but WHY is it Frank Sidebottom's head?! It's got little to nothing in relation to the man - it seems a complete tangent away from everything he was. Oh well whatever nevermind.

No prizes for guessing the character/actor.
I remember enjoying it at the time, and still think some of the design touches are inspired, though it always felt like a much more interesting science fiction movie that was awkwardly shoe-horned into a Bruce Willis/Die Hard vehicle in the third act.
It's a movie that is let down a little by a pointless sort of plot, and it's not really Derek Jacobi's best performance,

It's a movie that is let down a little by a pointless sort of plot, and it's not really Derek Jacobi's best performance, but there are so many contrasting tones, characters and settings that it really is a delight to watch, and as DDD says I am compelled to watch it again any time I stumble across it on TV.

It's a halfway house. According to Mike Mignola it was originally intended as a lower budget sequel to the del Toro films but not with del Toro's more expensive conclusion story, so both de Toro (as Producer) and Perlman jumped ship.
I get all that, just not why this... If the trailer gives an accurate impression, and who's to say it does, no-ones going to be happy. Why make it at all?

The 4th(!) attempt at Terminator 3 looks surprisingly cheap and awful:
https://youtu.be/RwEr9tOwAbs (https://youtu.be/RwEr9tOwAbs)
... Genuinely shocked at how bad the effects are - I'm so tired of this phony, cartoonish greenscreen aesthetic that almost all genre movies have these days.
True. JJ Abrams' new Star Wars sequel is making a big selling point of shooting on location and using practical effects, so at least there's one big sci-fi sequel you're sure to enjoy.
Everything in that trailer just looks like a videogame cutscene to me. I was expecting a lot better considering Cameron is involved this time.
..., for me this franchise hasn't had anywhere else to go since 1984. Everything since has been a remake.
I've read online it has a more 'nuanced political story,' hence it's setting the American Mexican Border. The Trailer gives away the Villians ability to copy itself using Nano Technology so Nil points there. Hollywood gets its Trailers made by Companies that sometimes have had zero to do with the Production and are mostly the cheapest available if you want to minimise losses. This Trailer is the first, but if they are indifferent to its revelations already that might mean the filmmakers have low expectations of the success of their product.

To be fair, people who have seen actual scenes/footage from the movie have apparently raved about it, so the movie could end up being decent. I'll keep an open mind, but I still think the effects in this trailer look godawful. It looks like a cheap superhero movie.
I think a fundamental problem with the terminator series is that in terms of design you can't really top the T-1000. It's simply the perfect infiltration/killing machine. Any attempt to go 'one better', like the one from Terminator 3, just looks silly by comparison.

Personally, I would like to have sex with all of those cats.
I think this thing just destroyed all its financial 9 lives in one fell swoop — it’s scheduled for release on Christmas Day in the US where Episode IX will be in full lightsaber swing
Yeah, but I think this one could have a long tail.

I agree with Tordels - Cats is going to be a huge, baffling smash hit. One of those films like Mama Mia that is somehow massive, despite you not personally knowing anyone that has actually seen it.
I also think Rise of Skywalker is going to significantly underperform. It certainly won't bomb, but I think it will do 'badly' (ie - struggle or even fail to crack a billion) enough that people will be taken aback somewhat.

Very very pretty, but in a better world Herzog would be playing Harvey: "Have a bounty for you Alpha, this one will make you consider the essential emptiness implicit in our standards of genetic purity, a mirror that only shows the one reflection; 250K dead or alive"...
Danny Boyle (quit because they wouldn't let him kill Bond)
Ah, the Demon Bear - a prime bit of Sienkiewicz.

That's a good sign - if they can capture even a soupcon of his unique-but-notoriously-difficult-to-replicate aesthetic, they're doing well. (See also: Warlock, who proved virtually impossible for anyone else to draw.)

One of the great achievements of "Into the Spider-Verse" was in animating Sienkiewicz's take on Kingpin. That film is a modern classic.

Which just goes to show the continued importance of patent nonsense to the tourist industry. Bring it on, says I, to be sure to be sure.
Worse than genuine, it's an adaptation of Shanley's own play Outside Mullingar, so it's already been on Broadway and received much-deserved criticism for its cultural vandalism. And yet it proceeds, with all those otherwise decent actors, in full knowledge of what it is.
ASIDE: My Dad was a guide for a tour-coach company. A passionate amateur historian, he had written and honed a detailed cultural patter for all his routes (which it was my great pleasure to consult on), which included everything from prehistory to the GAA, folk heroes and mortified saints, Joyce to Father Ted, famous people's houses and movie locations. To his horror the most popular part of his favourite route ("The Grand Wicklow") was an ordinary looking bridge. Accompanying him on the bus one time, I watched in amazement while the whole coach decanted onto the side of the road and photographed each other on the bridge, while he remained aboard looking glum, where normally he'd be out there holding forth on some embellished story of 19th C roguery. It was, he reported, a bridge that had appeared in PS, I Love You, a film neither of us had ever seen, based on a book penned by our former Taoiseach's daughter, that neither of us had ever read. But at least 75% of paying customers knew all about it. In his view the least interesting part of what was (and here I agree) a spectacular day's drive, but its inclusion guaranteed good tips.

Ha. I was about to comment that the pub in the village where I grew up is basically kept alive doing lunches for bus tours visiting Outlander locations. Damn fools don't even realise part of Restless Natives (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oaDBET0oij8) was filmed on the other side of the hill!Which just goes to show the continued importance of patent nonsense to the tourist industry. Bring it on, says I, to be sure to be sure.I sympathise. Visitors to Scotland are now herded around Outlander and Harry Potter locations, and see little else. Apparently it's what they want.
I haven't seen the film - much as I enjoy a nice long watch of Gal Gadot in costume, I lost interest after the Batman vs Superman one.
I love Leonard Cohen to an unreasonable degree, but it's very hard to believe that this trailer is professional work.
I'm genuinely curious to see how the Snyder cut will perform, as I don't see it having any sort of appeal to a general audience. Maybe I'm wrong?
Obviously I'm not curious to actually watch the film. It looks awful.
