Nice. I'll be seeing that.

The movie looks interesting, but thankfully Hugo Weaving is a major character, which could get me to check this out.

I know this film has been a pretty big question mark when it's previewed infront of stuff (mainly because audiences are now programmed just to react to iconography), hopefully this trailer will get people on board, we need more high concept films based on original properties, and this does look stunning. Just a shame the performances are a tad naff.

Closest thing we've had to a live action Final Fantasy film visually.

esteban² · 06-05-2018, 03:35 PM

While the trailer is a bit clumsy, there's no doubt I want to see this.

The Asian character delivery of her lines were really flat and lazy. There's no emotion emanating from her. I can already tell I'm going to hate her character. Visually, it looks nice. Just not sure about the story yet. The whole, "You killed my mother and now I'm going to kill you!" doesn't really interest me. Hoping they don't go down the romance road between the female lead and the male lead either.

I had suspicions that a romance may occur.

Some of the dialogue is generic and lazy.

"If you do this, there's no going back." Ugh.

The acting felt questionable from all the actors except for Hugo Weaving. Visually interesting for sure though. Didn't really do much to improve my excitement, but I'm still interested.

Darth Marcus · 06-05-2018, 06:04 PM

I'm getting a Pacific Rim vibe from this. Utterly preposterous, but also a whole lotta fun.

MosHighDef · 06-06-2018, 12:43 AM

Some crazy amount of CGI in this trailer, however it's right up my alley especially with Huge Weaving in the cut!

toddly6666 · 06-06-2018, 07:16 AM

Why cant movies look real anymore? Just people in cgi video game environments. Cant stand the way that looks.

Dr. Pavel · 06-06-2018, 07:18 AM

looks like sh.it, to be frank with you

pi2loc · 06-07-2018, 06:44 AM

At first I misread this was directed by Peter Jackson and I was like "hell yes!", then I saw the trailer and thought "I can't believe he's directing this," only to find out he isn't lol.

I don't want to be negative, I mean, it looks visually stunning but the acting and the premise do not convince me at all.

darkness2918 · 06-07-2018, 06:55 AM

Looks sort of interesting.

Mobe1969 · 06-07-2018, 11:09 AM

I'd have to watch it with a foreigh language track, so I could hear the sound effects and score, but not understand what they were saying.

Weird, Joe and Roth. Is that a play on Joe Roth, Hollywood exec and director?.

I just can’t get past the ridiculous concept, and I’m a fan of all sorts of ridiculous things.
