Blake is actually is funny here, I he's got some of the same jock comedic quality that guys like the Rock have. I may not pay to see this in the theatre but I will definitely check it out on digital/Netflix/etc

Correction, its "American Pshyco meets Heathers" (according to the trailer...)

by **Peven** on Fri Mar 09, 2018 5:54 pm

yeah, I'm not sure about the American Psycho reference, but I genuinely got a Heathers vibe while watching the trailer before the reference was made

Minor miracle I got aware of this before it even comes out

If you ask me it looks like all those years were worth the wait.

wow, i didn't know Fran Tarkington was French. :-P

Holy fuckballs does this look stoopid.

by **Fievel** on Thu May 03, 2018 8:22 pm

Just like Guy Ritchie's King Arthur film, there is such an over-emphasis on visual style over any substance of character.

by **Ribbons** on Mon May 07, 2018 10:58 pm

For a second there I thought this WAS Guy Ritchie's King Arthur film

Well this looks batshit crazy.

Tom brings it yet again. Popcorn action fun right there.

haw are they going to show all the porn and still keep it PG-13? :-P

this is giving me a foreboding sense of meh. :-P

by **caruso_stalker217** on Sun Jun 10, 2018 11:17 pm

About a week late on this one and I hadn't heard of it until yesterday. Now on my must see list.

Very Tarantino-y.

Braveheart Redux

This looks to be a perfect ending to Redford's career. Nothing new or groundbreaking, and it doesn't need to be. And it calls back to plenty of characters he's played in the past.

kind of a strange vibe for a Tiffany biopic, but Dinklage has the acting chops to pull it off, so i'm in.

New Coen Brothers flick. I'm hot and cold with these guys, this one looks good.

Here's a movie version of THIS IS US, by the guy who makes THIS IS US. It's not really a Zoner movie, but I think it looks absolutely terrible and would like some feedback:

My favorite Coen films tend to put a smile on my face. I smiled a-plenty at that trailer. This was originally a six-episode series before they whittled it down to a single film. I'm wondering if those episodes will ever be released in full....

And Ribbons, that Life Itself will find an audience. Maybe not even until it hits home video, but it will find its audience. And those people buy tissues in bulk because they wail weekly when watching This Is Us.

This is unabashedly a "Wine/Book Club" movie aimed 125% at my wife and her friends. And it is 150% a cash grab piece of shit.

This is scary as fuck because I can see something like this Oath thing happening with Trump.

But on the other hand...... Trash Pussy..... :lol:

is it wrong that i'm more interested/intrigued by the backstory of Drago and his son than i am in anything to do with Rocky or Creeed Jr?
i feel like we've gotten to know those two characters well enough in the last film and there's just not much ground left to cover there. but the Dragos? now THAT would be a movie i'd be interested in seeing. what happened to Drago after losing his match to Rocky in the 80s (spoiler, btw)? did he become an outcast in the USSR, blamed by the soviet gov't for losing the match and shaming his country? what happened to him after the collapse of the Soviet Union? did he end up becoming an enforcer for a russian mob (which would echo nicely Rocky's own origin story)? who is Viktor Drago's mom? is Drago training his son to fight Creed as some kind of revenge for his loss to Rocky that derailed his life (hence the "raised in hate" line from this trailer)?

frankly those questions are a lot more interesting to me than whether Creed Jr will make up with his wife or realize how much his family depends on him, or whether Rocky's cancer comes back, or anything else really to do with those characters. i'm sure we'll get the answers to some or all of those questions, but i hope it's not just in passing, just exposition to set up the Creed/Rocky stuff. and i hope the Drago's are actual characters and not just cardboard stereotypes repeated from Rocky IV. really, i'd just rather have a Drago film where Rocky and Creed are the background characters, than the other way around. or at least an even split. it could have been something like the Cobra Kai series on Netflix, where Johnny is just as significant and complex a character as Daniel.

by **caruso_stalker217** on Thu Sep 27, 2018 1:26 pm

My own fantasy version of a CREED sequel would have split the narrative between the two, focusing on Drago Jr. as an up and comer, a la CREED 1 (and every sports movie ever), looking to take on his father's legacy much as Creed Jr. did in the first film. Except his dad is still alive and an asshole (as evidenced in the trailer. I hope Dolph scowls like that through the whole movie) and taking out his own failures and frustrations on his son (probably this will play out similarly in the film).

Basically, probably what we are getting with this film except I would prefer the focus to be slightly more on Baby Drago and told more from his point of view.

And the title should have been CREED/DRAGO, cuz that would be fun.

When is Rocky finally going to fight in space? All these terrestrial bouts are boring and formulaic now.

by **caruso_stalker217** on Thu Sep 27, 2018 6:20 pm

Space is played out. When will Rocky fight at the bottom of the ocean?

ROCKY V AQUAMAN.

this one will have a post credits scene with Rocky and Drago that mirrors the one he had with Creed at the end of III :wink:

If we get a LeRoy Neiman style painting out of it, I'm game.

Honestly, it took me a good 30 seconds of "I know I know that guy" before I realized it was Christian Bale (the teeth gave him away) and it kinda knocked me for a loop. I think I'll pay theater monies for this.

The dopey George Bush is hysterical too. I'd like to believe this is a satirical look at the truth, but I'm guessing its not...

i've been waiting years for them to do a real sequel to American Psycho, and it looks like it was worth the wait.

Well that was....confusing. Maybe its just one really long Dior commercial.
