It's been awhile. Here's something to talk about.
2008 Upcoming Movies That I Wanted To See
(click on the movie title to watch the trailer - if applied)
Why I care: Probably boast the best casting in a superhero / comic book movie. That is until Watchmen of course.
Why I care: Wachowski brothers first movie since The Matrix trilogy. Curious to see what will they cook up this time.
Why I care: C’mon.. it's Indy Freakin’ Jones!
Why I care: At this moment, I would watch any movie linked with the name Judd Apatow. This time around he teams up with Adam Sandler. Hmmm..
Why I care: Edward Norton as Incredible Hulk? Count me in..
Why I care: I really, really hope M. Night Shyamalan hit the jackpot this time because the trailer looks awesome. If this sucks, then he should stick to.. err.. cameo appearances.
Why I care: Nostalgia. I used to watch Get Smart all the time.
Why I care: Mike Myers latest character. Hope it'll be another
Why I care: Timur Bekmambetov
Why I care: The trailer looks freakin' awesome. The website is nice too, playing along with the movie plot.
Why I care: It was the best movie at Sundance. The soundtrack looks awesome. It's a coming of age tribute to growing up in the 90s. Three strong reason to see it.
Why I care: People will flock to see it because of Heath's Joker. But I really wanted to see it because of The Dark Knight.
Why I care: I think the timing for this sequel is perfect. Mulder & Scully could be hip again.
The Mummy: Tomb of the Dragon Emperor
Why I care: It's fun the last time around. Although no Rachel Weisz, but it should be fun, again.
Why I care: Three strong reasons : 1- World’s first stoner action movie. 2- Written and produced by the guys who brought you Superbad. 3- Starring half the cast of Freaks and Geeks!
Why I care: Robert Downey Jr. as a black Oscar winning actor. Nuff' said.
Why I care: The original Thai version is pretty decent. Hope this one will be better. Not sure about the selection of Nic Cage, though.
Why I care: Ok maybe the movie has already been released. But I really, REALLY need to see this. It's Michel Gondry..!!
Why I care: Chiwetel Ejiofor as a Jujitsu master. And David Mamet directed it. Gotta see that..
Why I care: I enjoyed Neil Marshall's previous 2 films so I was eager to see this one.
Why I care: Only because Allysa Milano and Lauren Lee Smith is in various state of undressed throughout this movie. Oh yeah.. Peter Petrelli's in there too.
Harold & Kumar Escape From
Why I care: I actually think the first one is very funny and smart. Judging by the trailer, this one should be funny too.
Why I care: Scarlett Johansson, Penelope Cruz, Javier Bardem plus a threesome sex scene. Must.See.Now!
Why I care: Pacino + De Niro.. and Carla Gugino. Perfect.
Burn After
Why I care: The latest from Coen Brothers.
Why I care: I always enjoyed Neil LaBute's work; always controversial. This one has Samuel L. Jackson and the gorgeous Kerry Washington.
Ghost Town
Why I care: The Sixth Sense but Ricky Gervais style. Awesome!
City of
Why I care: Bill Murray and Tim Robbins. Double awesome!
The Rocker
Why I care: The always funny Rainn Wilson as an 80's hair band drummer who gets a second chance at fame. Nice.
Hell Ride
Why I care: Really excited about this one. Produced by Tarantino, this is another Grindhouse style film, this time directed by Larry Bishop. Michael Madsen, Dennis Hopper, David Carradine & Vinny Jones is in it, so it should be badass. Even the poster looks great. Check it out here.
Why I care: Katharine McPhee's movie debut! *squee!* About Playboy Bunnies! *squee!*
Why I care: Takashi Miike spaghetti western. Don't tell me you’re not interested.
Why I care: Directed by the incredible Fernando Meirelles. Even if Meirelles decide to direct a MayFirst commercial with AC Mizal, I'll still be interested. The guy is fuckin' brilliant!
Body of Lies
Why I care: Ridley Scott- Russell Crowe team have a go at it one more time. This time with Leo Dicaprio.
He’s Just Not That Into You
Why I care: Drew Barrymore, Jennifer Aniston, Scarlett Johansson, Jennifer Connelly and Ginnifer Goodwin. Phew!
RocknRolla
Why I care: The plot sounded very similar to Smokin Aces. Even Jeremy Piven is in it. But this time Guy Ritchie's directing. Hope it will be less Revolver, more Lock, Stock.
Quantum Of Solace
Why I care: Two words: James Bond.
The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
Why I care: David Fincher's latest. The film is about a man played by Brad Pitt who was born in his eighties and ages backwards. Exciting.

Jom tgk Midnight Meat Train together-gether nak? huhu..
BTW, r u still on dgn Antonio? Aku sibuk sial, takde masa, maybe this week satu aku dapat hantar..
No hal Fadz.. Tapi takut LPF dah slash dulu.. tak best aa.
Gua pun sibuk aa.. Ala, kalau sempat buat, kita hantar je kat dia. Takkan dia nak tolak plak.
"Probably boast the best casting in a superhero / comic book movie. That is until Watchmen of course."
What's so great about Watchmen's casting anyway, apart from Billy Crudup, Jackie Earle Haley and Patrick Wilson? (Don't mention Carla, okay? Konteks "best" pasal dia, as we all know, lain kat sini.)
Sukiyaki Western Django is bizzarely great. Kedai DVD dah banyak jual. Heck, even Speedy. Expecting normalcy from a Takashi Miike production is a pointless endeavor, but anticipating brilliance isn't outlandish. And this film pays. But Quentin's acting blows as always.
Iron Man, too, is great, great, great! Tapi the final action scene is a bit lifeless. Aku bet takde sorang pun akan bangun dan cheer up lepas Iron Monger kalah. Oh, ya. Spoiler my ass.
Be Kind Rewind is so so-so! Tapi those "sweded" stuff was really cool. Tengok kat panggung, kebanyakan part aku sorang je gelak. The rest, diam the WHOLE movie. Dan aku tak boleh salahkan diorang.
..apart from Billy Crudup, Jackie Earle Haley and Patrick Wilson?
- those 3 plus Carla is enough reason for me to say that they cast the right people.
Sukiyaki Western Django ada di Speedy? Shit.. kenapa aku x perasan? Aku cuba dload tapi tak tahu kenapa masih stuck setelah 2 weeks.
Ramai yg cakap Be Kind Rewind tahap ok je. Tapi kalau ada nama Gondry, aku mesti curious nak tgk. Otak mamat tu geliga nak mampus.
Kau dah tgk trailer Redbelt? Faveret kau si Chiwey jadi martial art master.
"Ramai yg cakap Be Kind Rewind tahap ok je. Tapi kalau ada nama Gondry, aku mesti curious nak tgk. Otak mamat tu geliga nak mampus."
Ya, dan kegeligaan dia masih tetap terserlah dalam cerita ni, terutamanya bila dia tunjuk adegan-adegan "sweded" yang the main characters buat. Tapi problemnya adalah, those things cuma side dishes je, beb. The real main course of this film is about something else entirely, so janganlah termakan dengan segala trailer dan previu cite nih yang ko dah tengok.
"Kau dah tgk trailer Redbelt?"
Nope, diorang cakap it's a Zemeckis-y kind of trailer, i.e. trailer yang tunjuk dari A sampai Z termasuk dengan twist-twistnya sekali.
iron man - yes, deena pun excited bile tengok trailer ada lagu fav dia . sabbath's "iron man" le tu..hehe
indiana jones - of cuz!
the happening - mark wahlberg berlakon kan? kena nengok.
the dark knight - hmm, mane buleh miss batman!
be kind rewind - hehe..pun takleh miss.
the rocker - tu mcm best tuh!
and suprisingly, aku rasa mcm nak tengok 1 movie indon yg takde dlm list ko - ayat2 cinta. hehe..why i care? sbb novelnya mmg superb!dan based on reviews (esp one in offtheedge mag), pelem ni sempoi.
nazim..
trailer Redbelt Zemeckis-y? Hmm, mungkin jugak kot. Tapi aku rasa Mamet tak reveal semuanya. Dia mmg master dalam plot twist pada skripnya. Heck, maybe even the trailer is a mock. Mamet mmg unpredictable.
Aku cuma nak tanya kau pasal Tim Allen. Mmg gila babi out of place si mamat tu. Tool Time!
nadia..
ayat2 cinta? KAU nak tengok? Hmm, mmg suprise. hehe. BTW, ni baru senarai filem hollywood. Yang local film aku akan update nanti. Tapi film indon tak sure lak aku.
Boy, was Speed Racer trippy. Don't forget to bring a bag of weed with you, man, if you planned to catch this movie in theater.
Bag of weed? i don't need it, man..
I got some natural high.
Planning to see Speed Racer next week..
Shit.. Iron Man pun belum tgk lagi..
Argghh.. Got to catch up.
Speed Racer - suffice to say : scene Matthew Fox fights in boxers only. I rest my case.
hahaha :D
Edd, that’s a whole lot of films!!! Remember, you have other priorities too… :P
PS: Aku tak psyched sangat nak tengok Indy, I mean, he’s my father’s age la!
PS: Siot la, PC rumah aku kong lagi, kalau tak lebih banyak aku nak tulis. :(
"Aku tak psyched sangat nak tengok Indy, I mean, he’s my father’s age la!"
Why, you don't like your father?
sha..
yes, that scene will probably make all the girls squee.
zack..
don't worry. My wife is a 'kaki wayang' too. :)
Edd...wife aku pun kaki wayang...tp wayang hindustan & cerekarama depan TV...huk, huk...
