Word.


It would be impossible to any Final Fantasy game as a movie from Final Fantasy VI onwards. A TV series'd be better. I thought that the Dune miniseries was better in most aspects to David Lynch's film, because it preserved more parts of the book.

Anyway, the only actual movie I'm anticipating this year is Pirates of the Caribbean: At World's End. They've set too much up in the second one.

Maybe Hannibal Rising. But that's all.

Sweeney Todd (does it come out in 2007?)
Synecdoche (Charlie Kaufman, yay! Again, I'm not sure when this is out)
I Am Legend (I want a trailer before making any decisions)
Black Snake Moan (supposed to be good)
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (love the animation, hate the cheesy lines)
Ghost Rider (might have some decent parts)
Dead Silence (I like the visuals in the trailer)
Slipstream (An Anthony Hopkins-directed weeeeird experimentalist film...)

2008 (?) films I want trailers for:
The trailers for Silent Hill 2, if it does indeed get made

By the way, Pan's Labyrinth is technically a 2006 film...it came out on December 29th. I saw it. It's good but VERY overrated. It's not a masterpiece and it's not a fantasy. Most of what they've been showing are the fantasy parts, but really about 65% of the film is actually a depressing, gory war drama.

They could but it would be like LOTR. It would span multiple movies and a LOT of stuff would be left out. But still, the awesomeness of such a movie! I would pay $100 to get the DVDs for such a movie.

Psst. I've got a four-disc set, basics, no special features, for $99.

All of the above plus Frank Miller's 300

Something I've gotta say, I just saw my first round of previews for 300. I hope for everyone's sake on here its good but from what I saw of the previews I'm afraid it'll blow the needle right off the cheese-meter.

I've seen the trailers, that's why I'm excited. I don't even like Frank Miller (didn't like Sin City much), but I want to see it for the visuals. The reviews from BNAT were very high. Cheesy? Certainly. Filled with excessive gratuitus bloody violence and nudity? Definately. BUT GODDAMN IS IT PRETTY!

Hmm, well, I liked Sin City and as far as that certain theatrical style I did enjoy Ultra Violet (though in that movie it kinda went so far that the abstraction worked and seemed to add to the movie).

Sweeney Todd is supposed to be out next summer.
I am Legend before the end of the year, specifically around Thanksgiving.
Synecdoche just began production, maybe next year, has no distributor.

Grind House.

The double movie split into 2 horror movies with fake trailers and fake commercials. One directed by Quentin Tarantino, the other by Frank Miller.

Sorry, but this is incorrect. QT does direct one, but Robert Rodriguez directs the other. Frank Miller has nothing to do with Grind House except that he co-directed Sin City with Rodriguez (and QT, actually, since QT directed one scene in that movie--the one with an dead Bencio Del Toro talking to Clive Owen in a car, I believe).
