Corona | Coming Attractions

WHOOOOO HOOOO!!!!

hey this is EXTREMELY great news...

perhaps Quentin Tarantino should be taking notes on how exactly to release HIS Kill Bill V1 and V2 and Grindhouse directors cut megasets ehh?? nah, that'll never happen.

Only $107 million at the US BO. Damn! Looks like we were right when we talked in the forums about how this wouldn't manage to cross the geek to mainstream barrier.

I still need to see this. I was never able to get to the theater, so now it looks like I'm waiting for Blu.
I still contend that Snyder's main fault, if any, was trying too hard to stay faithful to the comic. Henry Selick talked about how he wrote a draft of Coraline that was an almost exact clone of the book. He said it was horrible. It also sounds like that the few things that did get changed didn't work out for the better. So, by keeping it faithful to the comic, I think he lost Joe Moviegoer, and by changing some things, he irked the fanboys. Of course, the studio sees a big-budget R-rated comic book moive "fail," and decrees there will be no more R-rated blockbusters, because the rating is what's keeping it from making money.

Thinking like that is why we got a PG-13 Die Hard and why we're getting a PG-13 Terminator.

yeah, cause when you're being attacked by a terrorist or in 2018 being attacked by a 60' mechanical robot or what looks like your best friend, but is a big old ugly robot.... you'd better watch your darn language!

You sure that was his main fault, and not that his enthusiasm was writing checks his talent couldn't cash?

I'm guessing this extended edition will piss off those fans who feel they were promised an extended cut with chunks of Black Freighter stippled about the fecal strip that was the feature film.

oh, i heard theres still another version of this flick coming out in the first quarter of 2010 with the Black frieghter cartoon spliced into the movie.

My main question with the directors cut was "why?" holy fuck this flick was already 2.5 hours long and you're adding another 27 minutes to it? Jesus Christ, every single scene they added only slows the movie down in rhetoric and banter and keeps pushing the finale off till the viewers cant stand it anymore.

i wish the 27 minutes they filmed was more from the 1940's with the Minutemen and the original night owl, I didnt care anything about Hollis Mason when the thugs killed him in his apartment, I would have liked to have seen more of him in his prime.

P.S. the scene where the gang decides they need to kill Hollis Mason was horribly acted. I mean the dialog was delivered almost stiff and wooden as they come.
