Before Midnight (Before Sunrise/Sunset Sequel)

[Revolution 9]

Best thing about this news is that a new sequel will most likely prompt the studios to (finally) release Before Sunrise and Before Sunset on Blu-ray.

It will be awesome if they round out the story. The last one we happened to be in Chicago and were lucky enough to see it at an actual theater. When it ended, the entire audience concurrently said "Are you kidding me?" with the ending... it was good but of course left us wanting to know if Celine and Jessie ever ended up together.. this one will hopefully answer that question.

Before Tomorrow

I dont care what they call it. I'd be there on opening weekend.

As much as I loved the first two I'm a bit hesitant on this one...

Why? There's absolutely no reason to be "hesitant" if you loved the first two films.

I'd love to see the films released as a Criterion box set.

Really? Where can they take the stroy from here? What made the second so good was there was a reason they were apart, and it was a story of them reconnecting. Is the third going to be about them having issues in their now 10 year relationship? I really have no interest in seeing them reconnecting after a split.

I'd love to catch up with them one more time, but hopefully it is an engaging as the first two. I am excited that they are talking about making one more. Hopefully they will have a good story that will remain faithful to the characters.

I'm really looking forward to this one. Sure, a big aspect of these films are its cliffhangers but what really appealed to me were the character's chemistry and their own personal philosophies and how they developed between the 2 films.

I am more hesitant about Delpy's own "2 Days in New York" than this one, though.

Who knows where they take the story... but seeing how you don't really know either, that pretty much tells me there;s plenty of options to explore.

To dismiss a sequel when you acknowledge the greatness of the previous 2 entries is unfairly judging the film before you even know anything about it. And its indie films like this that need our support, not condemnation.

love these movies and have been hoping for a bluray release since i first found out about them. cannot wait to see where they take things for the third film.

Now you and Richard Linklater have something in the works right?

Linklater and I have been working on a film called “The 12-Year Project,” which will have a proper title someday. We make a short film once a year, and it follows the life of a little boy from first grade to twelfth grade. And so the movie is a series of vignettes. I play his father; just little moments of childhood and stuff. What the movie’s largely really about is time.

We’re also doing a follow-up to “Before Sunrise” and “Before Sunset,” so that will be fun. We’re going to shoot that this summer.

Where will this one take place?



I’ve gotten into trouble, so I’m sworn to secrecy. The biggest change between this one and the last one is the Internet. The first time we did it, we didn’t have any pressure; nobody gave a shit.

I love both of the films and look forward to finding out where they go with the story. Like a previous poster stated at least the film will push the first two to BD.

[Bucky]

Doubt it would happen but would love for a theater to do a marathon of all three films when the new one is released.

I wonder where this one will take place.

[ariakon]

Will Jar Jar die?

Will Bingo, I mean Frodo, destroy the Ring?

Will they find awkward love in each others's arms? Or will they forever just keep finding ways to regret their missed opportunities, to forever wonder what could have been if they had acted upon the emotional intrigue that arose from the casual glances exchanged upon the rail to Naboo, or the meeting in the humble cafe perched upon the lip of Mount Doom?

Or am I getting my trilogies confused?

[Bluballs31]

So is this now being filmed?? I read on wikipedia of all things that Ethan HAwke said they will be filming it this summer.

I would love to get the first two on blu ray and assume they would put them out before the third

Caught a showing of this movie nearby last night and it was amazing. Being 20 Im sure I was the youngest there in an audience full of middle age to old people, lol. Anyways the movie started in a different fashion than the previous movies but once Ethan and Julie had there alone time/s things just kept getting better. The movie turned out to be funny, depressing, romantic, and realistic all at the same time. Julie really brought her A game this time. While Ethan is always amazing, she blew her role out of the park. I give this a 10/10 but Before Sunset will always be my favorite. That movie is beyond perfect.

[Britbuffguy]

3/5.

Started off amazing, continued with the long chat in the car and then a great diner scene that involved other people.

Then...

It just got dull and uninteresting. They made Delpy such a bitter hag like character. After the diner scene, all she does is yell and complain. And all the did was fight.

Yeah she goes a

[Show spoiler]ll topless

for a long while, but who cares when she's just being over the top crazy.

The ending was a let down after the last one's.

Really let down with this movie.

Saw it this weekend. I loved the other two films, I had high hopes for this one but it fell short. If I need to see a girl needle a man repeatedly for 2 hours I'll go back to my ex. Biggest unresolved and oddly unexamined issue of the whole film is her resentment at being a mother. How in a film that is nothing but talking about feelings that elephant in the room is ignored was beyond me. Also I could do without her little digs at Republicans and her smarmy pro-environmental claptrap but I expect that from the French. The first two films I give 8/10, this one is still a solid 7/10 though
