Upcoming Films

Yep. That's right up my street. I love the original, I love Denzel and the prospect of contemporary action and production values should add up to a cracker (as long as Mr True Detective's writing is season one quality rather than season two).

[Hades]

The lighting on that annoys the shit out of me. Why is it so dark? It's a western. Why are modern films and TV shows so dark? I prefer watching older movies where everything is brightly lit and you can see every detail.

I can handle a darkly lit period film as long as they don't play Kanye fucking West over it in the trailers, Magnificent 7 and Assassins Creed have done it now.

The original was a remake of a better film. This one will be a remake of a better film as well.

[Sugar Ape]

Hands of Stone. Roberto Duran biopic with De Niro.

[Grinch]

Daniel Radcliff doesnt look the right fit for that film at all.

I know, which is a shame because the film looks half decent. He's also in an upcoming film where he's a journalist who gets involved with the Yakuza and doesn't seem to fit that either. I'll still give it a go though.

[manwiththestick]

Fair play to him for picking roles you wouldn't necessarily have him down for. He's done a lot of that since HP.

[Elite]

I don't think he's a bad actor but he's small and slightly built so playing a hooligan role doesn't look right.

[Anubis]

Maybe I'm in the minority but I think Radcliffe is a piss poor actor who would be jobbing in soaps had he not landed the role of Harry Potter.

Is he gonna fight with the Hobbit ?

[milky]

Seems a bit fashionable to hate on the original, but watched in the cinema, with all the subtle surround sound effects, I thought it was superb. Totally unique at the time as well. Anyway, think this is a sequel rather than a reboot. Blair Witch Project 2 wasn't even close to being a film, so it doesn't count.

 

This- surprisingly- looks pretty decent.

 

[Frankenhooker]

It wasn't that unique.

[Anubis]

The original was a decent film supported by a well crafted backstory that evolved leading up to it. One of the surrounding mockumentaries - The Burkitsville Seven - was a more effective chiller. It did have a good unsettling ending with her coming across the lad stood in the corner crying though.

In terms of the way they promoted it with the 'missing persons' websites etc, I meant. There genuinely was doubt for a while about whether it was real.

Yep, remember the McPherson tapes terrified me when I was a kid which pre-dates Blair WItch.

 

You had directors like Deodato and Lenzi doing the found footage cannibal films (Holocaust and Ferox) in the 80's as well as a host of horror films pre blair witch (although you can argue whether they were found footage or mockumentaries).

The Last Broadcast predates Blair Witch by at least a year.

Liking Ezra Miller as Barry Allen in this trailer, not a fan of how he looks as the Flash.

Looks like Godzilla where we see the monster only for about 2% of the movie.
