New King Arthur

I like what I see in this..... except for Charlie Hunnam, who looks like he stepped out of modern day.
Oh, is this another take on A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court?

by **TheBaxter** on Mon Feb 20, 2017 10:36 pm

directed by Guy Ritchie
starring the guy you hire when you apparently can't get one of the Hemsworths (or can't afford them)
proving once again that all King Arthur films since Excalibur have been made redundant and unnecessary

Good grief. This may be the worst re-imagining King Arthur yet. Looks like a bad video game trailer.

by **Wolfpack** on Tue Feb 21, 2017 11:19 am

Maybe it'll end with Hunnam steering his horse into on oncoming semi-truck driven by the Commish?

So is Charlie Hunnam the latest lunk-ish charisma vacuum that Hollywood is trying to make happen?

To his credit, his lunk-ish charisma was a driving factor on that stupid motorcycle show. He's the male Olivia Munn IMO.

i suppose National Treasure Nicolas Cage or Living God Nicolas Cage felt a bit lacking in humility to them.

and it looks like Cage's performance in this film is based on Tony Clifton. just one more in a long line of brilliant acting choices.

Olivia Mann is the male Olivia Munn :wink:

Charlie Hunnam is the new Chris Pine.

Saw a trailer for this before LOGAN and was surprised that I actually wanted to see it. I was thinking it was gonna be kind of a STARSKY AND HUTCH/21 JUMP STREET type thing, but it actually looks like a real movie.

New trailer for Valerian.
I really like the look of this.

Colin Trevorrow's The Book of Henry

by **Ribbons** on Sat Apr 01, 2017 9:40 pm

I'm intrigued, but can't get a good read on what the movie is yet. We're being shown whimsical gadgets and Rube Goldberg devices at the same time as a sinister soundtrack plays over a (abusive? molesting...?) parent prowling around next door. I think this is mostly due to trailer wankery, and the tone is somewhere in-between. I liked Colin Trevorrow's other little indie Safety Not Guaranteed, so I'll probably check it out.

Here's a vaguely similar movie that also comes out soon:

by **Fievel** on Sat Apr 01, 2017 11:47 pm

Gifted looks like the warm blanket on a rainy day kind of movie that Trevorrow's film looks like....before it turns all Rear Window and shit.
I'm intrigued by both films.

Hey folks, Harry here wrote:Guy Ritchie's KING ARTHUR: LEGEND OF THE SWORD can't FOOL me!
Published at: April 1, 2017, 3 p.m. CST by headgeek

Hey folks, Harry here with what we're being told is the final trailer for KING ARTHUR: LEGEND OF THE SWORD. Other than the sword and the stone... I'm not seeing much of anything Arthurian about this film... at least from the trailer. Then it suddenly the Oliphants show up from a desktop LOTR folder somebody inadvertendly whipped out in this Part 1 of a 6 part Arthur thing Warners has announced. So many facepalms. I hate that they're going for grit and nastiness. YET, because it is an Arthur tale, I can not resist an urge to see, but this really does seem like a kitchen sink production, where they just throw everything in the generic fantasry film wheelhouse instead of actually just making something of awesome magic and lyricism. That's what the world needs more of, not Boy Arthur vs the Young Pope. The scenes of Hunnam pumping his fists, bites more balls than in puppy heaven. Warners... why couldn't you just do CAMELOT 3000? Are y'all really this clueless?

I like the look of this too. The plot seems pretty dumb (another villain who wants to destroy an entire planet for some reason) but the visuals are amazing and I love the concept of a thousand separate environments stacked on top of each other. I'm definitely seeing this in theaters.
