Vampire Hunter — Bloodlust”: Animated thriller. (Sept. 21).

Sequel to Vampire Hunter D????

I've seen pics of Will Smith for Ali, and damn does he look like him!

Halloween and Glitter will suck, of course



So blow our mind and make it lazy
Those long long days with no escaping
I hold the wheel to let it go
Don't wanna stop, don't wanna know
If it gets you down, well just don't blame me

Yes, Spit, it's the long awaited sequel!! It's been talked about on AICN.

What I'm wondering about is if "Iron Monkey" is a dubbed re-release of a movie I saw a couple years ago with sub-titles. It was inintentinally hysterical! "Now I'll show you my iron fist of furious death!!"

I've also heard a LOT about "From Hell" about Jack the Ripper. They re-built old London in Prague. Not just a set, but pretty much a working city. Could be a really good film.




A much wittier reply came to mind immediately after I clicked the 'Send' button.
A Life? Cool! Where can I download one of those from?
BTW, FWIW, IMHO, AFAIK, yes. OTOH, AAMOF, maybe not. YMMV.

The musketeer looks really cool. Hopefully it will be as good as it looks in the trailer. Lord Of The Rings is going to f-ing rock! I'm looking forward to that more than Episode 2.

As expected I had a few things to say. First off JAY AND SILENT BOB STRIKE BACK is my most anticipated flick of the year, more than LotR. Now onto the movie

“Soul Survivors"-I've seen trailers for this movie for well over a year and from the commercial and poster it seems that they're focusing more on co-star Eliza Dushku than on the actual star(s) of the flick.

“The Musketeer” Three musketeers meets Chasing Tiger, Hidden Dragon- a maybe

“Two Can Play That Game Wow- this movies sounds like thousands of other 'black' movies out there.

“L.I.E.”: Drama about a disaffected 15-year-old who becomes involved with a much older sexual predator played by Brian Cox (the original Hannibal Lector in “Manhunter”). Generated controversy at Sundance. (Sept. 7). Written by Jim Norton

“Hardball'' I saw this trailer with The Score- looks like total crap

“The Prime Gig”: Vince Vaughn as a fast-talker recruited by a stock-selling scheme headed by Ed Harris and Julia Ormond. Directed by theater legend Greg Mosher. (Sept. 14). - Haven't heard of it but it sounds like it might be pretty cool

“Big Trouble”: Ensemble piece from humorist Dave Barry’s novel, directed by Barry Sonnenfeld (“Men in Black”) with a cast including Tim Allen, Janeane Garofalo, Rene Russo and Andy Richter. (Sept. 21). - I saw the poster for it. It also has Johnny Knoxville and Jason Lee, it might be pretty cool.

“Halloween: The Homecoming” After Halloween water is anyone really gonna bother?

“Don’t Say a Word” - I saw the trailer and I think it actually might work. Douglas, Liam Neeson- might be satisfactory, going to wait for the reviews

“Zoolander”- Maybe

“Collateral Damage“Even the title spells out BAD MOVIE

“Novocaine’’: Steve Martin as a dentist who’s seduced into a life of crime by a pretty patient (Helen Bonham Carter). Laura Dern plays his hygienist/girlfriend. (Oct. 12). - After all these years, a sequel to Little Shop of Horrors. "I am a dentist I have a talent for causing things pain"

“Mulholland Drive”: David Lynch’s latest Southern California thriller was expanded from an unsold TV pilot. The cast includes Laura Herring, Bill Ray Cyrus and Ann Miller. (Oct. 12). - David Lynch returning to a surreal Twin Peaks/Blue Velvety world? I am so there

“Vulgar’’: Very black comedy about a New Jersey layabout who gets more than he bargained for when he advertises his services to perform as a clown at parties. Starring Brian O’Halloran of “Clerks”; that film’s director, Kevin Smith, is executive producer and has a cameo. (Oct. 12). - Depending on trailer, reviews I might see this, I'm hoping it would be good.

“Corky Romano”- I saw the trailer and had the strange feeling that they originally planned for Corky to be seriously retarded instead of just stupid

“From Hell’’: A Scotland Yard inspector’s (Johnny Depp) hunt for Jack the Ripper leads him to Buckingham Palace. Allen and Albert Hughes (“Menance II Society”) direct from a script based on a graphic novel by Alan Moore. (Oct. 19). - This might be very, very, very cool

“Heist’’- David Mamet pretty much rules. State and Main was one of last year's best movies. This doesn't look great but I'm willing to give it a shot

“The One’’ - Saw the trailers, got more laughs than should. SLIDERS meets Jet Li.

“Shallow Hal’’- Let's face it the FArrelly's have been, well, shitty rtecently. However the idea of replacing Ben Stiller with Jack Black already means to me that they're looking in the right direction.

“The Man Who Wasn’t There”- Coen Brothers, film noir, Tony Sopranos, black and white- something tells me this movie is going to fucking rock!

“Metropolis’’ Anime remake of what might be the best silent film ever made, rock.

“Ocean’s 11”- This could be very cool

“Not Another Teen Movie” I think this might suck

“Out Cold” : Snobs vs. slobs at a ski report. You know this might be cool with some golfing.

“Lord of the Rings”: Yes

“Gangs of New York”: Scorsese is back. I just watched Goodfellas and I really miss him doing flicks. Can't wait

“The Majestic- MIGHT work

“The Time Machine”: Simon Wells directs a remake of his grandfather H.G.’s classic starring Guy Pearce as the time-traveling scientist. (Dec. 25). - I saw the teaser, didn't like the 'car commercial' feel they were going for but Pierce looks cool and so does the Machine

=======

A movie I didn't see mentioned it the horror movie Jeepers Creepers which looks like it might be a good thrill flick but the title caused the entire AP2 crowd to burst into hysteria

The narrator in Fight Club is the man we will be, Patrick Bateman in American Psycho is the man we want to be
Eliza Dushku- Hotter Than Britney
