Matt C 423 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Yeah, supposedly they rushed post-production a bit to get it out in Oscar-time.They shot the film from April to June this year... seems like a normal turnover time (4-5 months of post) if your film doesn't require explosions or numerous CGI shots. And they probably edited on set as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once 505 Posted October 10, 2012 Share Posted October 10, 2012 Oh, sure, but it was supposed to be released in 2013. They hurried a bit to make it a 2012 release. I don't think it will, it was supposed to be a January-February-March release. I just hope Danny Elfman had time enough to compose a decent score!

Koray Savas 2,095 Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 I thought they were all great; was particularly surprised by Roth.I was searching through Malick's IMDb and discovered a film he's producing set to come out next year... another Lincoln movie.

Quintus 5,391 Posted October 11, 2012 Author Share Posted October 11, 2012 Thanks for letting me know about the spoilers in that trailer guys, I'll skip it. I know absolutely NOTHING about this movie other than it's Tarantino. The thumbnail features DiCaprio, I notice; well I didn't even know he was in it till now. I'll definitely be seeing this at the cinema, anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
publicist 4,484 Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Looks really good but DiCaprio and Jonah Hill look horribly miscast.At least Tarantino's meta films usually trascend their idiosyncratic casting choices: of course DiCaprio is horrendeously miscast as the rancher baron type...as is Waltz, oozing european flair. But in the end, they are all but colorful vignettes in a movie that is a big, colorful vignette in itself.Knowing a thing or two about DJANGO/SARTANA/RINGO westerns, i sure wish he would have casted better 'faces'. He could have asked the Coens' casting agent about that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love his accent in this one, but some of the lines sounds different between the two trailers. Love the way he says "but I don't know what they look like" in the first one.Django Unchained is Blazing Saddles for the 21st century: a western with unabashedly racist overtones.I thought it was an obvious blaxploitation western.

JoeinAR 1,759 Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Blazing Saddles is many things but it's not racist. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,442 Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Oh right. Since it's so blatantly over top, it's satire instead and thus funny, but if it was Denzel or if people got upset over it and nobody in the audience laughed, then it would be racist. Cleavon Little is perfect as the sharp tongued and quick witted straight man with a minority color in a town full of white racist rednecks, out to get him, which allows Mel Brooks to explore racist concepts inside a safe satirical movie made in a different time.Oh, shit. Quicksand! Dang, that was lucky. Doggone near lost a four hundred dollar handcar. The sherriff's near.Up yours [near].Is it twue what they say about the way you people are... gifted? Excuse me while I whip this out.Why, Rhett! How many times have I told you to wash up after weekly cross burning? See, it's coming off.Hey, where the white women at?But put this movie in front of somebody with a chip on their shoulder and axe to grind, and they might not be laughing.

JoeinAR 1,759 Posted October 11, 2012 Share Posted October 11, 2012 Richard Pryor was one of the writers of the film as well. Again it's not racist, but it is pointed and very funny. At the time what critics found most offensive were the fart jokes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AC1 3,565 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 I'm unfamiliar with such a TV series.What can I say, giant robots (with humans piloting them or not) have always been the thing in Japan.

Quintus 5,391 Posted October 14, 2012 Author Share Posted October 14, 2012 A remake which doesn't suck? Sounds unlikely, but apparently The Thing wasn't bad either: http://uk.ign.com/articles/2012/10/13/nycc-first-evil-dead-footage-seenI guess you can colour me semi-interested.

I just don't see the appeal. From what little I've seen, none of it really looks like interesting science fiction. It all looks like a Halo movie coming to life (wasn't Del Toro once in the talks for making one?), which I'm not interested in seeing. Mind you, its too early to tell, but so far count me out.I'm unfamiliar with such a TV series.I believe he just summed about 70% of all Japanese anime Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hurmm 85 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 The Thing (2011) really is a remake disguised as a prequel. Many of the plot points and story beats sync up almost perfectly with Carpenter's version. And it is inferior in every single way to Carpenter's.I could see how an Evil Dead remake could work though. It won't top the original, but I could imagine it being a very fun time, if they get it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wojo 2,442 Posted October 14, 2012 Share Posted October 14, 2012 Well, Evil Dead II was essentially a remake of Evil Dead I, in that it summarized the events of the first movie in its first five minutes or so before launching into the new story.It could work, but it would probably take itself very seriously, and thus not be the campy sarcastic classic the original movies were. Bruce Campbell's great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
