Would need to see more.Ā  Not quite buying Nick Cage as Dracula, the supporting characters seem a bit flat, and Renfield himself seems a bit too well-adjusted, even after 125 years of coming to terms with his "new normal."Ā  But all that could change with the next trailer.

Ā 

TSDR - Tim Burton's "Batman," or Des McAnuff's "The Adventures of Rocky and Bullwinkle"?Ā  Could go either way.

Why does this remind me so much of Abe Lincoln: Vampire Hunter? That movie should have been terrible but it both was and wasn't.

I just saw this trailer myself elsewhere.Ā  Well, it's a good trailer, but they can't be trusted ha ha, so who knows?Ā  I do have my interest piqued though, so it worked on that level.

Tim "Black Scorpion" Sweeney: Matt (Posi) used to say that players would find the shortest path to the rewards even if it was a completely terrible play experience that would push them away from the game...

It felt veryĀ Shaun Of The DeadĀ to me - comedy, sure, but also horror,Ā played by horror rules.Ā 

And I have no idea if Nic can pull it off either, but it'll be a gloriously Nic performance either way.

If anything's bothering me, they're going aĀ littleĀ heavy on the comic book tones of the lighting, but it'll definitely have its own tone and style.

After watching Matchstick Men in the theater, a movie which was promoted as a comedy, I've sworn off ever watching any Nicholas Cage movies ever again.

Even if they're free.Ā 

I remember clearly that the large audience in attendance at the movie collectively laughed twice.

In 2 hours.

And the laughs were more "laugh-cringe" than "LMAO" laughs.

I'll also never believe a national movie critic again, because that's the reason I chose that movie in the first place.

That seems like depriving yourself of...Ā a lot...Ā of movies. Though I don't think I'm ever going to work through his collection of the last couple of years - he's been working like a man possessed. Some of it's fun (Mandy, Colour Out Of Space, and silly but entertainingĀ FNAF-ripoff Willy's Wonderland), some ofĀ it...

Ā 

...well, if anyone can tell me how in the name of rum'n'raisin fudge this thing got greenlighted, it would be relevant to my interests.

If you've sworn off Nicholas Cage movies, that's your personal choice, and there are plenty of other talented actors and genres to explore in the world of cinema. It's all about finding what entertains and resonates with you personally.

Yup. Also, it's worth looking at each movie in its own right, not just because actor X is or isn't in it.

I mean, "Keanu Reeves, action hero" still has the inner 90s' me going "...whoa...", but afterĀ Speed,Ā that happened, and now we haveĀ Ted Logan as a franchise-making dark avenger dude.Ā 

Ā 

I can't imagine why orĀ howĀ Cage maintains his phenomenal work rate - or how stir crazy he must have been going in this strike. But he's clearly got to that Bob De Niro era in an actor's life where they've gone "screw it, let's doĀ everything". Cage is just gutted he missed out to Bob on thatĀ StardustĀ role...Ā

I'm getting a vibe somewhere between Hugh Jackman's Van Helsing and Nick Cage's own The Sorcerer's Apprentice.Ā  Both I considered not deep, but worth the price of popcorn, extra butter.Ā  And hey, it's got Nicholas Hoult, himself experienced with quirky monster movies (Warm Bodies).

I can't tell you the backstory, but what I can tell you is that is a movie that isn't actually about what it looks like it is about nor is it actually about the plot points that happen along the way. There's a depth underneath the madness that I did not expect to find. I went into it expecting a post-apocalyptic surrealist fever dream and nothing more. Turns out I got that and quite a bit more. It takes a while to get there, but once there the trip becomes worth taking.

Just saw this one. I don't know if I've enjoyed a movie more in the last couple of years. And Cage gives a surprisingly good Dracula performance. It wasn't what I was expecting at all, in a very good way.

Small piece of casting news: clearly we weren't the only ones impressed by Nic Hoult, as Gunn has just officially cast him in Superman: Legacy...

...as Lex?

Ā 

Yeah. Yeah, I could see that. Especially as Lex isn't the primary antagonist: that'sĀ The EngineerĀ (think T3's Terminator X model.)
