directed by Zach Snyder (wtf?)

this looks unbelievable terrible, and whoever greenlit this must have been on some powerful drugs.

Combine it with the Creed like Theme song in the trailers and this is the perfect movie for all douche bags to nut all over.

9/21/2010 10:00:54 PM

hah

call me a douchebag then

cause I thought it looked pretty decent. The trailer I thought was put together pretty well.

9/21/2010 10:02:02 PM

My wife loved Happy Feet and this movie is full of happy-looking owls, so I will end up seeing this.

9/21/2010 11:03:27 PM

If you go see this movie and a) don't have kids or b) aren't on a bunch of drugs you are a sucker of the highest magnitude.

9/21/2010 11:32:43 PM

When I saw the trailer I kept hoping one of them would say "O RLY?"

9/21/2010 11:39:50 PM

^^ care to explain?

9/21/2010 11:56:46 PM

Do I really need to? It's about CGI talking Owls for fucks sake. Not to mention the super cheesy and melodramatic trailer.

9/22/2010 12:02:08 AM

I can't believe anyone saw Toy Story. It's about a bunch of CGI talking toys for fucks sake. Not to mention the super cheesy and melodramatic trailer.

then why did you bother to make a thread about it?

9/22/2010 12:31:45 AM

^^I don't remember Toy Story having a super cheesy and melodramatic trailer, and I suppose this movie could contain a depth of characterization and level of storytelling the belies it's premise but I highly fucking doubt it given the previous projects the creators worked on.

^Why was there a thread about The Room? It looks too bad for me not to make fun of it.

9/22/2010 1:09:39 AM

you think it sucks, we get it

I don't get why you have to try to call every single person out that doesn't agree with your opinion, get over yourself

9/22/2010 7:58:55 AM

I think this is actually based on a series of kids (or young adult) novels

so you can thank the Harry Potter and Twilight series for movie producers wanting to make movies out of every single book series.

I keep thinking of it as Lord of the Rings with Owls instead of Hobbits

This looks like a good movie for kids and only kids.

Toy Story was funny. Legend of the Guardians does not look at all funny.

9/22/2010 9:39:46 AM

O RLY?

9/22/2010 10:58:47 AM

Owls can't talk.

9/22/2010 11:11:09 AM

A friend of mine put down this movie.... I reminded him of growing up watching the Secret of NIMH

9/22/2010 11:15:46 AM

The Secret of NIMH rocks, also I did not realize that Wil Wheaton and Shannen Doherty did voices in it.

9/22/2010 1:26:54 PM

apparently the 3D action sequences in this film are incredible. That beind said i will still not be seeing this.

9/29/2010 4:43:41 PM

This shit cost $100 million and only recouped $15 on opening weekend...does not look like the sequel will pan out. They probably should have put a little more work into the story, rather than just use the old chosen one vs. impending evil crap.

9/29/2010 4:47:23 PM

I saw it (I have an excuse! There were small children with me!). I hadn't seen a 3D film up until then, and it did look very good. Lots of slow-motion owl combat. The flying sequences were very cool. I laughed at the Nazi owl bad guys. I enjoyed it, for a kids movie.

9/29/2010 5:22:20 PM

it wasn't the stupid talking owls that turned me off this movie. it was their stupid English accent

9/29/2010 5:53:15 PM

Yo how's an owl supposed to forge a metal helmet?

9/30/2010 12:56:58 PM

with a complex system of levers and pulleys

9/30/2010 1:46:30 PM

^^They start off by holding a strand of creeper under their dorsal guiding feathers.

9/30/2010 2:28:02 PM

I saw this with my gf, her brother, and her mom. It was ok. I laughed out loud unintentionally at a lot of the dialogue, such as "COME to my hollow!"

Most of the actors were Australian. Big diff to some.
