DISQUS

That's exactly what I thought to... It's like, I'll be damned, this actually makes some sense!

Because it's a WWII movie, it's being sold as all-out action, and the general sense people are getting from Tarantino doing a WWII movie is that it'll be action-y. You're right, you can't expect everyone there to be smart and understand what they're getting into with Tarantino...

It's not that it's about excessive talking being problematic, per se, it's just that for people expecting Tarantino going all out with action, it's not going to be good when they see mostly talking scenes. It's just a change of pace and people have built up a lot of expectations for Taratino these days.

I think the concern that this could cause other people to Twitter and be disturbing while doing it (not under a controlled event) is very, very viable. But it's the same as writing an article that says a movie like Wolverine has leaked.

By covering that news, they have now further contributed to the spread of the illegal downloading of Wolverine by alerting people who otherwise might have never know that it exists and can be found on torrent sites. And yet that news is reported extensively around the world and is deemed appropriate, so why is this any different?

Uh, they had some footage... Michael Bay was there and he showed a bunch of footage on the last day during the banquet dinner.

Plus, this was a big promo marketing thing for Paramount, so it was just a bit of promotion sort of because "they were there" in Vegas anyway... Kind of like, why not, a bunch of ShoWest attendees will see it.

Haha, that's my roommate man! We picked up all the lantern shirts (black, orange, blue, red) from WonderCon and NYCC so he has 'em all... He wears them all the time, everywhere we go. Even the Golden Apple people were jealous that he has them. I'm not a Green Lantern fan, but he is.

We were all up in the side room, like every big web guy was hanging out there, man! Didn't like that buffet though... Prefer Flamingo more.

Yea, he rarely takes it off, ever... Anywhere we go, he always has it on, always!

Ya, they just mentioned in one sentence that it was in development for 2011, which we already know. That's the only "news" of it there was, nothing else at all...

I love how embarrassed Peter was when talking about gambling... Hahahaha! He's like "I don't bet big..." and Frosty is like, you totally do! :P

And as for the things I said... well I totally DO love Zac Efron, c'mon! Just kidding... But District 9 is the shit.

That is fuckin' hilarious! And yea, take THAT DreamWorks, you suck!! Pixar foreverrrr!!! :)

That WAS really frickin' cool! They should've just hired this guy to direct the new one! Love the knives glowing orange and everything...

You know, I think that's because Giacchino DID the Lost music as well... ;)

Frickin' LOVE this score so much!! Michael Giacchino is such a huge up-and-coming composer. I've loved all of his recent scores and I've got a feeling this one will be pretty frickin' incredible... Can't wait to hear it all!

I agree with you that people read reviews a lot less now before than after seeing a movie. Of course it's all about traffic and hits and being first and so on, but at the same time, reviews are only criticized after the fact and not as important as other marketing ideas playing into the opening of a film.

But at the same time, look at Watchmen, I think the negative reviews hurt its opening weekend, because everyone kept hearing that Snyder didn't pull it off, and that caused them to become worrisome. Reviews are important, I agree, but I don't know how much anymore. A bigger question here that I don't even have the answer to...

He's too young and not poignant enough... I like Gosling, but more as the guy who falls in love with a doll, not as someone with willpower who deserves to wear the ring!

There was a battle that saved Australia? Who knew...

No but seriously, this looks frickin' awesome. I LOVED Band of Brothers, so anything Spielberg and WWII, I am there!

Peter, please do NOT buy this and/or wear it! The Boba Fett one is cool, but this is just awful, it would look so terrible being worn in public!!

Darren looks like he makes porno movies on the side with that skeezy mustache... :P

He makes a good point, too... There are some other bloggers who are assholes to the readers and completely hate them and it's ridiculous. But yea... thanks for mentioning me, I guess? :)

Ha! I knew youd say that! Shame on you Peter!!

I've also met Danny from the Totally Rad Show in LA now too. So not only do you need to move to LA, but you also need to come on more trips!

Yo that second video is kind of amazing! I'm super jealous of him, his laptop is soooo hot!!

Very good point! :)
