Exslade ZX Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 Ok...what the hell is this? Lol, I mean like...is this some sort of old story/children's book that's being made? Is it not really...a kids movie, but sort of is, kind of gives me that Jumanji feel. I just...hadn't heard much about it before. When I first saw the commercials...I thought it just looked stupid as hell..but now, for some reason, I have the urge to want to go and see it. Even though...I don't even really know what it's about. Even after watching, most of the 'Making the movie' thing on MTV. So umm..I guess, discussion about this movie..should go here :/
bob_barron Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 I can't wait for this movie. Jim Carrey's my favourite actor and I loved the teaser trailer and the regular trailer. Carrey looks like he's having so much fun in the movie and apparently he plays all these different characters and does a lot of crazy stuff.
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 yeah is this a book or a kid's show or what? It looks interesting but I don't want to accidently find myself in a theater with a hundred little kids.
bob_barron Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 It's based on the first three books in the Lemony Snickett series. The movie is rated PG
Golgo 13 Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 www.google.com That's all it takes, people.
Guest Smues Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 Other then having a cameo by the Aflac Duck I have no interest in this movie.
Exslade ZX Posted December 12, 2004 Author Report Posted December 12, 2004 www.google.com That's all it takes, people. http://forums.thesmartmarks.com/index.php?showtopic=64647 For that information...all it took was Google. But hey..what do you know, there's also a thread about it. There would have eventually been a discussion thread anyways I'm sure.
Boner Kawanger Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 www.imdb.com That's all it takes, people. Edited for this situation. I was excited to see the movie since Carrey was in it and playing these weird characters, and then there's a baby that talks with subtitles. I'm on the fence now. I'm sure it's a great movie for kids, but it just doesn't appeal to me.
bob_barron Posted December 12, 2004 Report Posted December 12, 2004 It seems like Liar Liar in the sense that it is just a one man show for Jim Carrey to let loose and be awesome. Kids movies can be really good so don't not see the movie for that
Guest Smell the ratings!!! Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 and then there's a baby that talks with subtitles EEEEEEEEEEK
Guest hhheld_down Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 i didnt want to see it upon first teaser trailer, but after seeing constant previews of it I am kind of excited for it. should be interesting
Guest El Satanico Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 It looks great, I'm looking forward to seeing it and bah to the "it's just a kids movie" mindset. In the books, the character Carrey is playing is darkly humorous, so hopefully that's how Carrey is playing him.
Boner Kawanger Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 I think Carrey looks to be the saving grace of the film. I'll probably see it this week if I can. But still...almost talking babies...
Corey_Lazarus Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 Need y'all be reminded of how solid the Harry Potter movies turned out to be?
bob_barron Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 Harry Potter 3 was the best movie I've seen all year and the Chamber of Secrets is a fun kickass movie. I haven't seen Philosopher's Stone in a while
Guest El Satanico Posted December 13, 2004 Report Posted December 13, 2004 It's not like the baby is a new born. She looks old enough to make noises that sound like words. It seems like only her sister and brother actually understand her. Besides, it is a fantasy film.
UseTheSledgehammerUh Posted December 15, 2004 Report Posted December 15, 2004 Personally I found Harry Potter 1 to suck and be child crap...Harry Potter 2 to be "eh...better" and Harry Potter 3 to be one of the best movies of 2004. So this could be hit or miss. I'll wait for the DVD.
Guest TheAustralian Posted December 16, 2004 Report Posted December 16, 2004 Just saw this film. 2 quick observations. 1. It is a very good film, all the actors in it are really good, Connolly, Browning, Streep and Carey shine. I would of loved it to be abit darker but obviously that would of reduced its Box Office appeal. 2. This film will make alot of money. I saw this in my little crappy local cinema and it was packed. And the crowd loved it. I expect it to be big.
MrRant Posted December 16, 2004 Report Posted December 16, 2004 The movie looks like it was shot in the same Harry Potter style. Including the lettering in the trailers.
