This movie's gonna fail. I don't know why they waited so long. The book was weak compared to the LotR and any anticipation for this movie has long dried up. Not to mention dorfs and hobbits have the least amount of mass appeal, and the general public is not all that interested in the genre to begin with. I just don't see this being very popular, maybe opens at number 1 but dies down quick.

There won't be a Transformers 4. There would be a new director, completely new cast, and an altered timeline. This clearly points to "reboot."

Those who have seen 3 know that they're not continuing that story.

And in the case of a reboot, it's likely the human characters will be downplayed, since that was a large complaint about this trilogy. Not that statham would really "fit" anyways. I just don't see it happening.

The tipster is right on. I'll bet that it is the movies plot and sadly it sounds awful.

Go figure a fox rep replies that its "way off" as that is what they always say when something gets leaked without proof. The funny thing is how completely vague their official synopsis is, it doesn't dispute anything from the leak so in fact both could be completely true.

People have become complacent at setting the bar low so if a movie does anything but flatline they'll praise it as good.

I don't mind a movie being based on action and thrills, but that seems to be a free pass nowadays. If its "supposed" to be a summer blockbuster then action is all that matters, and awful dialog,acting,plot can all be forgiven cause it was just meant to entertain. I just can't accept that.

This seems to fit the bill per...

It was hit and miss both at the same time. There was some very cool action, like anytime magneto uses his powers. But the focus is spread way too far.

Between telling the tale of prof x and magneto, and that of creating the xmen team, plus the villians and their agenda, there was no time for introductions with so many characters. They went ahead and tried adding personal stories, but it seems really tacked on.

Some of their picks just make no sense, like the...

yea that title is completely misleading. Yea he might be a villain, but he isn't THE VILLAIN. I was expecting to hear riddler or bane, but instead hes some crooked politician who will have all of 11 mins screen time in the almost 3 hour epic.

I don't understand why they're remaking this, its only a few years old and has already been dubbed into English. They're just replacing all the actors and filming it all over again, despite the fact that noomi rapace has been highly praise for her performance in it. Sure they might change a few things, but imo not nearly enough to justify doing it over. From that trailer alone I was able to point out several scenes it shares with the other film.

Still I do like Da...

This is great news, I know several people who have been waiting for this. Personally its probably my favorite Disney movie, so I can't wait to see it again.

On another note,I really hate how they bundle bluray's. 4 disks for $50, who needs that, I'd rather just have the single 2D movie for $12.50. They're not even making the movie as a solo bluray, they have it solo on dvd released a month later, or you have to get the 2 disk combo pack (likely around $30), s...

Sadly I've only see 3 of those movies.
I think they need better advertising, cause a few I never even heard of and others I didn't think would be funny so I didn't make it a priority to watch, maybe it's time for second chances.

If that picture is supposed to be tom cruise surveying the wasteland with rifle in hand I can guarantee this movie is gonna fail.

I highly doubt this is true since he had no interest in being in the first and is now currently training for a real fight against Somluck Kamsing. Cool if it happens, but I wouldn't get too excited until someone official confirms it.

Spoiler Alert? As if there was a plot to ruin.....
Its just the action equivalent of a porn movie, the story is nonsense but no one cares, you just wanna see the explosions and gunfire.

I agree with all of them except the last one.

The love story in Thor is tacked on. There's really no development between the 2. Shes drawn to him cause he's lost and alone and needs her help, then they just reciprocate it cause they need a romance in the story. Its not relevant to the plot, nor does it really make sense because they have nothing in common and spend all of two days before he leaves, yet somehow they're deep in love by the time the credits role.

Not even a fan of megan fox, but in the clip that new girl looks rigid as hell.

Not keen on yet another reboot. I know most ppl didn't like the last one, but they still could have kept Roth and basically focused on superman with zod or whoever they wanted to be the villain.

I agree that another "exploring his past" movie is completely played out. We need to see superman with a new challenge. He has so many villains (personal favorite would be Darkseid), it blows my mind they can't come up with something else.

For those...

I hope you're right about the plots cause film makers have been more than liberal with stories based on any other medium. I could point out a few major changes in every game/book/comic based film I've ever seen.

I not sure about evans, maybe he is suited for the role, but captain america will likely fail. The character is an iconic, almost parody, of the usa in WW2 and was only really popular during that time. Every time he's reemerged in mainstream culture, its b...

I guess. I don't mind all out action flicks, but transformers 2 had so much potential and just gave it all away for nothing. The jokes were horrid, the plot made no sense, they threw in so much trash from the ghetto twins to the sexy fem-bot with a tail. It just blows my mind how they thought they could just cram more and more useless stuff in. The computer graphics and action was good, but its like trying to enjoy fine dinning at a landfill, you just can't ignore it.

Pirates, Cowboys and Aliens, Conan, and Kung Fu Panda 2 will probably be good.

I'll bet Captain America, Xmen, and green lantern are all gonna suck and quickly be dismissed as marvel/dc over-saturation instead of just awful casting and terrible plot.

I can't understand how anyone could be excited to see transformers 3 after that pile of trash they released last time. Yea I bet its gonna make boat loads of money, but it'll be marginally better at b...

Maybe cause its called "first class" yet spits on the comics by having none of the original x-men except beast.

I will guarantee this will be hated by fans and causal audiences alike. I know I'm not spending money to see it.

Good, but too short. I really like their casting though, which is something I consider a "make or break" for most shows.

Better than I expected, so I hope they can keep up the good work.
