    'Fantastic Beasts' Sequel in the Works, Release Date Set http://thr.cm/eFI9be

    FB2 set for November 2018.

    Quote:
    With Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them just a little over three months away from hitting theaters, Warner Bros. has announced its plans for a sequel, which the studio has dated for Nov. 16, 2018.

    Not surprised WB released this news today.

    So, does he shave his beard in the movie? He was fully bearded in the trailer.

    I'm guessing that the shaving of the beard serves as a symbolic sign that the old him is giving way to the new, and that nobody is going to touch his daughter on his watch! Or something like that.

    That's a great poster @DaltonCraig007. Mel looks pretty pumped. That tagline could almost be for Taken. I think this opens near me next week and I'll be there on the first weekend for sure.

    I hope so. I'm really looking forward to that film; Zemeckis is one of my favorite directors.

    @DaltonCraig007, 'Allied' is almost as close to release as 'Silence' is, so I sure hope we have trailers for them in the next couple of weeks.

    Oh yes please. Silence is my most anticipated film of the year.

    Dunkirk announcement alias 1st teaser

    NB: I can recommend watching this with headphones on and at a decent volume

    Wow. I'm absolutely there day one. I needn't see any more.

    Hoping it's a good one. Christopher Nolan is hit-and-miss for me, with The Prestige, Interstellar, and 3 The Dark Knight movies being my favorites from him. Not as much a fan of Memento or Inception.

    Love Christopher Nolans films, Dunkirk looks very good.

    Got a tip to watch the Dunkirk teaser with headphones on... had to try... Well holy... I mean...
    Recommended. :D

    @Tuulia, I'll have to give that a shot! That trailer was incredibly impressive.

    Am I the only one who thinks that this teaser looks laughable?

    Soldiers standing.

    Only one starting at the air.

    Everyone else pretends like war is a regular day for them.

    Suddenly they all start running away.

    Like mute the sound and put the Seinfeld theme song in the back and you'll get what I'm trying to say..

    I love Nolan but I am not a big fan of war movies. I can't judge this movie based off the teaser, so let's hope it doesn't disappoint

    If you didn't like it, fine. But why the hell would one - even theoretically - mute the sound and put on some inappropriate music instead (especially since the the original sound is perfect and fitting - and in the case of the Stuka sirens it is essential)? "Pretending"? What were the guys supposed to be doing? A bunch of probably very tired young men in close proximity, some presumably in a state of shock barely knowing what the hell was happening, waiting and hoping to be rescued from a desperate situation, but not actually able to do much anything else at that point except wait. Real life people react in different ways to many things, including traumatic events or danger, just like different people react in different ways when they get drunk; some withdraw into themselves, some become boisterous. In a situation like those guys were, it would have been weird if all had behaved in the same manner or reacted at the same time and in the exact same way - in reality people don't. And yes, they were standing, but no, they were not "running away" at any point, as there was obviously no room for that, and there was nowhere to go.

    That teaser is quite impressive, but it wouldn´t be new with Nolan that the teasers or trailers mesmerize and the film sucks.
    I don´t trust it at all.

    The idea of trusting a teaser is a new concept to me. I have never bought any movie tickets based on a teaser. (I would have bought tickets for this without seeing even a teaser, as soon as it was announced last year. But that's a different thing.) I have liked Nolan's previous teasers, too, but then I've liked the movies, as well - to different extent, for sure, but none of them have sucked for me.

    I don't "trust" even trailers, teasers even less. I just happened to like this teaser a lot. But I trust the director to know that I will certainly at least want to see the movie. (He isn't the only one, but there aren't many.) A great DP and a couple of my fave actors make me wanna see it as well. Plus the subject matter actually interests me. Even if the teaser (and later trailer), and poster for that matter, all sucked, I'd still want to see the movie.

    I certainly wouldn't recommend trusting teasers or even trailers - they can be very deceptive indeed. (They are ads, after all.) So you're on the right track there. :) You'll need to find something more trustworthy, or just skip the movies...

    To compare: I loved the Spectre teaser, disliked later trailers and so moderated my expectations, disliked the poster, too. But it was a Bond movie, so of course I had to see it, how could I not. Also had one of my fave actors - I'd have seen him in a non-Bond movie as well. Didn't really like the movie all that much, but there was never a question for me of would I see it or not.

    @dragonsky, I found it pretty unspectacular too, but it's Nolan, so I'm checking it out in the future for certain. His teasers usually try new, experimental ways to pitch a film to the audience, some work, some don't. One thing I like is that I never have to worry about getting one of his movies spoiled for me by watching one of the trailers. They show you just enough to get you to bite, then pull back and keep the rest a mystery. That's a rarity these days.

    That looks quite good. But it's from John Moore, so you can never be sure.

    The master doing what he does best. Great trailer and I can't wait to see this in IMAX on opening night next year.

    @bondjames, IMAX looks like the best way to see this. Can't miss this in theaters.

    I am there opening night for 'Dunkirk' and 'Hacksaw Ridge'. I love WW2 films.

    @Creasy47, I agree. Nolan does wonderful work in the IMAX medium. One of my all time favourite scenes is that 'Heat' like opening to TDK. I was completely blown away.

    Hmm, yes... I think I'll need to book a London holiday for late July next year...
