piranesi Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 "A grand statement on what it means to be a human being." Oh Christ. There is no statement on what it means to be a human being that is both true and grand. At least none that wasn't already covered in SMOKEY AND THE BANDIT.

Swift Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 One of my friends said it best. "What if someone pisses you off three days after the purge? You're going to wait a whole year?" Also, someone please explain to me what I just saw here.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7rVZrbPmvwA It got rave reviews from most critics when it played the festivals last year, and it's got a great poster... As for what's going on, I'll put it in spoiler, though I believe it's revealed very early on in the film. She's an alien who preys on hitchhikers, sending them back to her home planet where human flesh is a delicacy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Swift Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 I've never heard of it, but, yes, that's the movie I've seen the plot compared to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Curt McGirt Posted February 15, 2014 Share Posted February 15, 2014 You should see it, it's a corker. Took me years but I caught it recently and damn what a movie. Totally insane, but acted totally deadpan -- very much like an update of the Hammer Quatermass films. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheVileOne Posted February 16, 2014 Share Posted February 16, 2014 HOLY SHIT! I didn't realize that one of Paul Walker's last films was an English remake of District B13 (and a fairly faithful one it appears) Plus - KURRGAN~! LOL at the obscure tagline of "FROM A CO-WRITER OF THE TRANSPORTER!" Seriously?! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaedmc Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 I feel like this isn't the fourth time that trailer has been posted accompanied by that exact same sentence Or maybe I'm conflating a lot of action movie trailers that look exactly the same, that were most likely offered to Liam Neeson first..

Niners Fan in CT Posted February 17, 2014 Share Posted February 17, 2014 They should have let Liam play Jack Ryan. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
caley Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Did the rumor about a 'Knight Rider' movie being made with Chris Pratt in the lead and Danny McBride as the voice of the car make it to this thread? I don't feel like going back before the last page or so to check. But, yeah, sold. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antacular Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Just saw the first trailer for NFS and the only word that comes to mind is "generic." It looks like the exact same caper flick we've seen a thousand times. At least Bryan was smart enough to follow up with motherfucking Godzilla.

Fat Spanish Waiter Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 David Hasselhoff isn't going to work without Knight Rider. I think this is what you meant. I can't quite tell from your tone, but it feels like you're trying to Hassle the Hoff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ligerbusa Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 Holy shit, I forgot Brick Mansions was a thing. It looks like they could have straight up reused footage of David Belle from District B13. This and Transporter without Jason Statham, what's EuroCorp going to do next? Danny The Dog?

jaedmc Posted February 18, 2014 Share Posted February 18, 2014 That Drive Hard movie looks like the pilot for a new weekly TV show on USA Network. And Thomas Jane looks like an 80's MTV VJ. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would be all for Martin Blank showing up more often so long as his clones didn't show up in movies that sucked. War, Inc. blew goats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's what happens when you hit mid 40s to 50. You keep trying to go back and prove to yourself that you're still that same guy with that same potential energy. Most of us get to do it privately via Youtube and old cassettes. He's just stuck doing it in public. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
