Upcoming movies you're looking forward to!

[WaznTheGreat]

Yeah but its not so black and white the whole adjust for inflation thing,back in the day when Gone With the Wind was playing it was the only movie you could see,each city had 1 movie theatre and 1 screen so if you wanted to see something it had to be that one movie,that one movie was your only option for the period of time until the theatre got another film,as of today its the opposite with 15-30 films at a time fighting for your money as well as other forms of entertainment(DVD,cable yada yada yada)

Also in those days if you didn't watch Gone with the Wind at the theatre than you would be thinking that you would never get the chance to see it(in todays world you can watch a new movie like a few months away on demand etc etc and don't have to worry about missing the chance)

So many more factors too such as the fact the population in America for example has more than doubled since Gone with the Wind days,can't be bothered going on anymore though lol.

Yes but things like pirating would have a huge effect on today's movies and then with Gone with the Wind it was released during the depression and a war.

It all evens out really.

Looks like the prequel to Interstellar

I've heard a few people say that.
Matt Damon has actually come out and said that it's nothing like Interstellar. Strange that he would have to do that.

Box office records stopped meaning anything to me, it's only a reflection of hype not quality.

This is absolutely true.
Look at some of the top grossing movies - Avatar, Titanic, Furious 7, Transformers 3 & 4. Not very good in terms of quality movies. Even Avengers 1 & 2, Harry Potter, Jurassic World, Iron Man 3 are all just pop fluff. The closest thing to a true quality film in the highest grossing movies list in my mind would probably be Toy Story 3 at number 16.

But for good movies, I do enjoy seeing them do well at the box office.
It's becoming pretty stupid these days though, considering you can have a movie make over $700m at the box office and still be considered a failure (Amazing Spider-Man 2).

Even Avengers 2 is being talked about as 'failure' simply because it didn't break the records that it was expected to. It's made over $1.5B ffs!

And of course the two movies that I have more anticipation for than any other movie in recent memory.

Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice:

Star Wars Episode IV - The Force Awakens

Can't wait!

Whenever a Spielberg movie is announced it always goes to the top of my most anticipated list.
Bridge of Spies is his next one.

That looks alright.

Its the fact that it made so much despite being such an unimaginative and mediocre movie, compared to say Watchmen (which I regard very highly) made little in comparison and came and went without much fuss.

Has that movie "Maggie" starring Arnie already been and gone, or is it yet to (or not to) be released down this part of the world?
My mate told me about it a while back, and it sounded pretty cool, but haven't seen anything about it here in NZ.

 

[T.S Quint]

Hasn't been released in cinemas in Australia.
Pretty sure it's on BluRay in the US already. I don't think it was much of a hit so I'm not expecting it to get a cinema release here.

Hmmm.

Ridley Scott has been on a pretty bad run lately, but I'm always hopeful he will get his groove back.

This one looks like it could be the one to bring him back to the top class.

The Martian:

Thought his groove was pretty good for Promethius. A very good sci fi IMO.

 

[T.S Quint]

Prometheus looked great, but it had a lot of story problems.
I thought Exodus was ok. Nothing better than that.
I didn't bother seeing The Counsellor after hearing how bad it is.

 

[Game_Breaker]

Creed or Rocky 7

Good to see Avon Barksdale and Wallace are in it, Avon was a boxer in the Wire?

Good trailer, I hope the movie is too

 

[Game_Breaker]

Just a teaser trailer, but this movie will make waves

Sounds like Terminator Genysis is a pile of dung.
When is the last time a "blockbuster" was actually a very good movie?

 

[Bulldog Force]

Who remembers the video game "Rampage" from the 80s? The game where you pick monsters and start destroying US cities?

They're apparently making a movie out of it, and Dwayne Johnson has the lead role.

I'd say this is a good year away at least, hopefully not, but this is something I wouldn't mind seeing purely because I loved the game as a kid.
