Re: DC Universe Animated Original Movies

I actually found Lex to be a very jarring juxtaposition in tone to the rest of trailer. And I don't recall Lex being such a goofball. Even though it is spoiler heavy it has actually increased my interest in the movie now that it seems that it won't be pointless hero fighting hero action for the dura...

Re: Official Star Wars Thread

No the closed ending of Star Wars didn't prevent me from enjoying the other two, I am just hesitant cause I just feel as a story the series had been satisfactorily completed. I have always felt whenever Lucas talked about it being a 9 part movie, the final 3 would be a bit pointless. As it would req...

Re: Official Star Wars Thread

And that is my lingering hesitation about this new trilogy. As much as the trailers have me excited about the movie. And I will see it in the cinema with excitement, I just can't help shake the feeling that this movie will spoil the 'perfect story ending' of Jedi. Hell even the prequel trilogy makes...

Re: The Good Dinosaur

Even though it's not out in Australia until December 26 with a host of a million over movies, the books are in store already out here. Naturally I couldn't resist. It was interesting that a plot point I thought was thrown out is actually still in the movie Arlo's family are farmers . The story remin...

Re: Official Star Wars Thread

What is the explanation for the Stormtroopers still being a major force? Are they good guys or bad guys? I only ask cause my knowledge of Star Wars is linked solely to the movies. I just assumed when the Emperor was killed, that everything connected to the Empire would have been discarded by the peo...

Re: The Golden Compass

This news excites me. I really enjoyed the movie and was disappointed that the series never concluded on screen

Re: New Chipmunks Cartoon with new look for alvin

I'll watch it. There I have said it in public. I will watch it. Not in the cinema, maybe not even as a rental. But I will see it one day even if it's on TV. As Dacey said they are harmless kids movies. And watching them with my godson, helps me appreciate what the makers are going for. These movies ...

Re: Official Star Wars Thread

After getting giddy with excitement about the potential awesomeness of this movie, I thought I should take a reality check and rewatch the original trailer for Phantom Menace. Case I vaguely remember being excited for that movie and look what was delivered there. I can safely say the Phantom Menace ...

Re: Official Star Wars Thread

Outstanding, Hollywood should pay attention to that trailer. It has convinced me that returning to the galaxy is worth it and yet I have absolutely no idea how things are going to play out. A major criticism I have with modern trailers. And if that is the music Williams has composed for the film, it...

Re: Official Star Wars Thread

And Han and Leia are? To me it seems weird that they are prepared to put all the old gang on the poster to convince the 'true' fans to 'return' but the main character from the original trilogy is missing. I'm worried that the reason he isn't on the poster is because Luke is revealed in a twist to be...

Re: Pixar vs Marvel and Lucasfilm

I'm more concerned with the Star Wars movies not starting with the Fox Fanfare. Whenever I hear that Fox Fanfare I instantly expect the Star Wars theme to follow.

Re: Pirates of the Caribbean Franchise

I just always assumed the origin of half eleven stemmed from people being too lazy to say Half past Eleven. I think a lot of time phrases are going archaic because of the embracement of digitial time over analog time. My favourite is listening to my students try to be all knowing and announce someth...

Re: Ant-Man

No, they want to groom Hope-Wasp for possible Avengers 3 (c'mon, she's gotta be in the group! :) ), but they're still stuck in their Black Widow/Panther/Strange mode of thinking that EVERY character needs a nice long solo-movie explanation before they can introduce them into the group movies. .

Re: Disney's Frozen

Random question for the weekend - Are Elsa and Anna not joining the Disney Princess line? I remember before it opened that they were joining, but it seems with the breakout success the film has had has resulted in them becoming their own franchise.
