Time for some news,
The Conjuring 2 has begun filming, oh joy......meh. Pacific Rim 2
put on hold indefinitely, saw that one coming from a mile away. The
film Taken is getting a TV series, the series will tell how Bryan
Mills became the man with a very particular set of skills, this could
go either way, it does sound intriguing. The Gambit film has hit
another snag, the director has left citing previous engagements, this
is sounding more and more like the Crow reboot we still haven't
gotten. Ridley Scott recently let slip there may be as many as 3
Prometheus sequels being planned, with that last one I say,
well......shit!
Speaking of
Prometheus, I recently saw Damon Lindelofs newest film, he didn't
direct but he wrote it, Tomorrowland which I have to say wasn't all
bad. It started off pretty awesome, glimpses of the city
Tomorrowland, although they never call it that, were strewn
throughout the beginning. But the narrative was a little off, it
took a little minute for it to figure out which story it wanted to
tell. The humor was surprising, there were quite a lot of laugh out
loud moments. Then the ending came, while not terrible, it felt
ridiculous, wont spoil it for you because who knows, you might love
it. I think it was definitely worth watching, I just wish the ending
could have been tweaked a little, what I saw was laughable.
Finally, I saw the
dreaded Fantastic Four! I'm not sure what this film was originally
going to be, but it really did end up a big pile of shit. Perhaps
I'm being too tough on it, lets examine shall we. Ill list my
problems, number 1, they get their powers from the “negative zone”
and right after that Reed Richards decides to up and leave everyone,
then the government offers Ben Grimm a chance at being normal again
but he has to help them with something, cut to a year later and Reed
is still gone and the rest of the team are basically super powered
mercenaries, What The Fuck!? Why the time gap, that was a chance to
show some action, and the movie SEVERELY NEEDED THAT, as it stands
the only action was the ending, and don't get me started on how
abrupt that was! Then there's number 2, Doctor Doom looked like a
rejected 3rd graders science experiment, what the hell was
that, and he goes from glad to be OK to KILL EVERYTHING within a
matter of minutes. Number 3 of course was a sever lack of character
development, even when you try and care what happened to these
characters on screen, you eventually just say fuck it let em die,
could be more entertaining than what I'm seeing maybe even funnier.
And of course the problem I had since day one, the minute I saw the
trailer, THE THING DOES NOT HAVE REPRODUCTIVE ORGANS AND DOESN'T EVEN
ACKNOWLEDGE THE LACK OF EQUIPMENT.
