perhaps the best movie trailer ever made.
I might not even go see that movie, it could ruin the trailer experience.

Man, forget Matrix, Star Wars, LOTR, Batman, or whatever. This is what I grew up on and this is what I've been waiting for.

In the words of William Butler Yeats (as quoted in another great Bale movie), I say this to the director: "Tread lightly for you tread on my dreams".

Seriously. There is cause for concern. The man directed Charlie's Angels Full Throttle. I've seen that movie on a plane once...my god...

While that movie was absolutely terrible it did rekindle my love for Demi More.

That being said, this movie looks good and Equilibrium not withstanding I've never seen Bale in a movie I didn't like. Even if I don't trust the director I trust him...

Dementor said...

So Dildo, I'm guessing you havent seen Shaft, right?

Napoleon Bonerpants said...

Actually, the great Bale movie I was referring to was Equilibrium. I really liked it. For once, it was a bad idea with a good execution.

Master of the Craw said...

no, i never did see shaft.
I didn't like equilibrium because it felt like a movie that was trying too hard to be deep and ended up being ham handed. Visually it was great but thematically it fell really short. And I had a lot of trouble getting around the ideas of gun katas which were blatantly stupid.
Batman, the Machinist, american Psycho, Empire of the Sun and 3:10 to yuma were all great though. I think they outweigh one or two shitty or average movies.

How could you forget Swing Kids ?!!!

Napoleon Bonerpants said...

My play experience with Swing Kids has ruined every chance of me liking the movie. I haven't seen it, is Bale in that? Does he play the good boy turned nazi?

Dementor said...

you betcha!

what play experience?
