Robert Zemeckis's next film is called "HERE" and stars Tom Hanks and Robin Wright, who will be digitally de-aged

 

Not sure if this thread followed up with any other updates but this will be getting a wide release on November 15

 

Hoping for a nice Silvestri score at the very least. This will be their 20th collaboration together! They haven't missed a single one since they started together on Romancing the Stone.

Jeff Nichols explains why he dropped out of the A Quiet Place sequel:

That's sad to me, the guy is an amazing director. Take Shelter, Mud, Midnight Special, Loving, they're all amazing movies. Take Shelter actually might be one of my favorite movies of all time.

Final Fly Me To The Moon trailer

 

 

 

So... it's CAPRICORN ONE played for laughs.

[tomsmoviemadness 4,434]

Nosferatu.

New film from the Director of The Witch & The Northman.

Starring Bill Skarsgaard, Lily-Rose Depp & Nicholas Hoult among others.

 

 

[Romão 2,434]

That looks stunning. My must see movie of 2024

[Tallguy 6,185]

Wait. Wilem Dafoe is in a Nosferatu remake?

 

 

Mind. Blown.

 

(I've never seen the original. Was it THAT obviously a Dracula rip off as this? I know Stoker's widow did sue.)

Did you like The Northman? Biggest disappointment of 2022!

 

So far I only liked The VVitch, which is one of the best atmosphere movies of the last decade.

It wasn't a rip off. It was a direct adaptation. As far as I know, they just changed the title because "Dracula" was protected by copyright.

[tomsmoviemadness 4,434]

Heretic

 

Music by Chris Bacon

 

 

 

[tomsmoviemadness 4,434]

Red One

 

J.K. Simmons plays Santa.

Also starring Dwayne Johnson & Chris Evans.

Music by Henry Jackman

 

 

 

[Edmilson 10,997]

Looks like one of those poor quality mockbusters that usually appear on streaming once in a while and are forgotten in less than a week.

[A24 4,924]

So on which upcoming movie are you putting your money on?

 

Alien: Romulus?

"Dracula" is in the public domain, there's no copyright on the book or the name.

 

Though you're correct, most of the dozens of films about Dracula are (more or less) adaptations of the novel, not remakes (though the new Eggers film is a bit of both). Strictly speaking, they don't even need to be adaptions, anyone can use the name Dracula in any context in any genre in any medium.

But we're talking about in 1922. And other than Shadow of the Vampire we're not talking about other Dracula adaptations, we're talking about Murnau's Nosferatu.

I kinda agree (although I did like The Lighthouse). But the look and tone of this seem to be so absolutely spot on...and it will be a perfect companion piece with the release of Young's score for the 1922 film

[Jay 43,905]

Wow check out the de-aging of Tom Hanks and Robin Wright for "Here" (Zemeckis's new film)

[Jurassic Shark 15,564]

Almost as good as DoD.

[Lady Dimitrescu 10,260]

Why are they making a new Nosferatu movie when we had a perfectly good one 80 years ago?

[Xander Harris 8,494]

What are you like 80?

Final A Quiet Place Day One trailer

 

 

[tomsmoviemadness 4,434]

Trailer for Zemickes' Here.

 

The scope is much bigger than I thought based on the description from earlier.

 

 

[Jay 43,905]

This new Audrey Plaza movie My Old Ass looks pretty good.  I like coming of age movies

 

 

[tomsmoviemadness 4,434]

New film directed by Mel Gibson

I thought Resurrection would be his next film.

Anyway, this looks... hmmmm... underwhelming for a Gibson film.

I'm used to those big epics he has done..

[Nick1Ø66 7,218]

“The pilot’s a hit man”!  I love it when one line in a trailer tells you all you need to know.
 

That actually should have been the name of the movie.

[tomsmoviemadness 4,434]

Wonder who will do the score?

[Naïve Old Fart 12,154]

The trailer for CALIGULA looks stunning.

[Edmilson 10,997]

Apparently Terrence Malick has finished editing his movie based on the life of Jesus Christ. He had been doing that since 2019.

I'm expecting lots of poetic shots of swaying palm trees and sand being blown by the wind, set to a gently melodic Hans Zimmer score.

Not Zimmer this time though: it's already been confirmed that the composer will be Eleni Karaindrou, a female Greek composer who is best known for scoring the films of the Greek director Theo Angelopoulos.

 

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eleni_Karaindrou

 

Malick's movies usually have great scores, the kind of music that usually goes really well with his poetic images so I'm expecting something great. Hopefully this will premiere this year.

[Naïve Old Fart 12,154]

I'll stick with JESUS OF NAZARETH, thanks all the same.

... overpowering the soft spoken voices (making subtitles a necessity).

[tomsmoviemadness 4,434]

Not sure if I'm the only one that missed this, but apparently there is a new Hellboy film coming out later this year. In theatres.

On the contrary, I'm looking forward to the movie, because I love Malick (well, some of his movies that I have seen) and Jesus stories!

Rebooting a superhero for a second time in 5 years?  After only one movie in the last reboot?  Is this a new record?

There was that little Marvel film about a guy bitten by a radioactive spider. I guess that had 2 movies.

 

I've only seen the very first Hellboy and I enjoyed it well enough. I'm just trying to figure out who it is that thinks that there is DEFINITELY money there if they just try ONE MORE TIME.

[tomsmoviemadness 4,434]

Also think Batman is pretty good at it.

 

2012 was Bale's last film. 4 years later was Affleck's first and in 2021 his last (Snyder's Justice League), with a year later Pattison stepped into the role. With Keaton returning one more time last year.

 

And now we're probably gonna have Pattison's Batman and a new Batman in Gunn's DCU...

I think there used to be a Jesus film every couple of years (or more often) during Hollywood's Golden Age.

 

 

Just the other day I wondered if McKellen was still making films. Today he posted this:

 

Apparently it's already running down under, and had a few limited festival showings in 2023, but Britain won't get it until September, and no other releases are listed on IMDb so far.

Yep. Spiderman was rebooted for the third time 3 years after his last movie. Or 2 if you count Holland's appearance in Civil War.

With Batman is a bit more confusing... Affleck's last movie wasn't ZSJL but rather The Flash, where he appeared for quite a while before Barry time traveled. And that movie came out one year and three months after the last Bat-reboot. And it had both Keaton and Clooney.

 

Actually I think it's hilarious that Batfleck warns Barry about the dangers of changing the past, only for him to be pretty much erased from the timeline when Barry does it anyway 

[Jay 43,905]

new John Cena action comedy, also reunites Awkwafina with Simu Liu

 

 

[tomsmoviemadness 4,434]

Oh, that's the new Paul Feig film.

Even though some of his films are not very good, I always enjoy them.

 

And Theodore Shapiro's score for his films are also pretty great! If this one is a bit like Spy from 2015, I'll be happy

‘The Devil Wears Prada’ Sequel in the Works at Disney With Screenwriter Aline Brosh McKenna in Talks to Return

[Naïve Old Fart 12,154]

Due to budget restrictions, it will be titled THE DEVIL WEARS PRIMARK.

Nobody.

 

Why don't they just make a new movie with Streep, Hathaway, and Blunt? I'd be up for that.
