For one obvious reason, this film is off putting, but I've got to admit, the trailer is wicked cool. I may decide to put my feelings about Kristen Stewart aside, and give the movie a shot.

^Charlize Theron will be my only reason to watch this movie. My, does she look stunning as an evil queen or what?

^ Agreed. Charlize Theron looks amazing! She really sold this role, just by looking at the trailer.

The Snow White film does look good, I'll admit even if not too much a fan of Stewart. Theron looks beautiful as always, and Hemsworth looks perfect for his role. Only issue I got is damn Ray Winstone in the film, cant stand the guy but I'll watch it probably and try and ignore him in it.
The effects look fantastic, and a good few battle scenes it appears from the trailer which is nice. I'd give this a look just to see how they have changed the original idea and made it more action packed.

I'm not thrilled in the least to see Kristen Stewart in this film. But, Charlize Theron has a way with making something so bad look amazing. Maybe Kristen will surprise us with this role. Who knows... not betting on it though.

The fact that I want to see this film, pisses me off.

This seems like it has that... tone I love. Also, Helena Bonham Carter looks wonderful here and Eva Green as an evil witch? Yeah. Amin gonna watch this one.

I don't think I'm a true "fan" of Tim Burton, but I like his vision and the image he tends to create in his films. I've always said that Johnny Deep is overrated as an actor, but I'll probably give this a watch because of Eva Green.

SNOW WHITE AND THE HUNTSMAN
If this film had a Charlize Theron edit -- just her scenes, then I would watch it, and enjoy it a lot more. But as a whole, the movie was a bit of a let down; not that I was expecting it to be brilliant, but I was hoping that it would be better than I initially thought... and it wasn't.
Again, Charlize Theron runs the show. Stewart plays the cardboard character better here than in Twilight, because it makes more sense. Still not a fan, but she didn't bring the film down as much as I thought she would. The storytelling did that on its own. ★★

Oz the Great and Powerful, first trailer. So, I don't know about this one. It looks fun, though.

This movie caught my attention a while ago because of the fact they listed Robert Downey Junior as OZ. I was sad when James Franco got it, but I still think t will be good.

I'm going to give my 5th and final attempt to watch the first Lord of the Rings film tonight. I always get bored, and fall asleep during the first ten minutes. Wish me luck?

It's not that I don't like it. I just haven't given it a fair shot. I know that I'll probably love these movies if I get far enough into them, because they really are my kind of film, but it just hasn't worked for me yet. Hopefully this time I'll get some results. I had to go out and load up on snacks to help me get through it. haha!

I remember having a friend who was obsessed with LotR when I was in primary school, and we used to play all the PS2 games and stuff (which I thought were awesome). And I did use to enjoy them, but now... yeah, I should probably give them another shot too... -groans- hahaha |
