John Carter was a lush throwback to old studio movies like Ben Hur & Spartacus IMO. Big sweeping tale. No ADD-editing.
How long is John Carter? Does it get "preachy" by the end then, if it is like Ben-Hur? I can appreciate that film from a sheer technical aspect, but the plot is kind of a bother to me at times, also considering that it is just way longer than it needs to be.
And no preachy.
;)
Judging from what I have heard of it, it isn't deep enough to bother being preachy.
:))
That I could kick Martian a*s!!!
2.The Matador
3.The Man With The Iron Fist
4.Horrible Bosses 2
5.Django Unchained
6.Pulp Fiction
7.Rushmore
8.Premium Rush
I'll second that!
Thirded!
...But I don't think that's a word... :P
I agree with quite a few of those. 'Horrible Bosses 2' is pretty much confirmed at this point, last I read. I don't think 'Pulp Fiction' needs a sequel - leave it as it is - but 'Premium Rush' was exciting, 'The Matador' would easily be able to have a sequel, and of course, 'The Tailor of Panama' would be amazing to see a sequel to.
Dredd
Bulletproof Monk
Equalibrium
The Punisher '04
The One
The Fifth Element
Austin Powers
Blade Runner
Inception
Not me, that's for sure.
Another thing I tire of is films that leave an open possibility for a sequel, but it's a huge possibility of never happening, such as straight-to-DVD films or low rated films, ala:
I know the Destroyer movie rights have been optioned again, but we are still waiting for a new film. The modern CGI effects could do wonders displaying the talents of the two Masters of Sinanju. The Destroyer novels are great, escapist Bond-worthy adventures, featuring the deadliest assassin that ever lived.
I'd also love Spielberg to tackle a 'Munich' sequel, focusing on the other operation.
I read Seth Gordon's interview back in Febuary about writing the script for Horrible Bosses 2. I just decided to add it on the list. As far as Pulp Fiction. I agree with you. But I enjoyed all the characters & would like to see them on the big screen again.
I think Quentin has said that while he won't do a Pulp Fiction sequel (obviously), he isn't opposed to using the characters in a whole new film. It would be cool to see a brother film with Vic and Vincent Vega that could touch on how Jules and Vincent first met and began teaming up and make other references to the Tarantinoverse all while giving us a great ride of a film. It would have to be written, shot and released in the very near future though, since Quentin may be retired from filmmaking come another ten years time.
Yeah, it is crushing. We will be losing such a visionary director whose love and passion for film is unmatched amongst his colleagues. Though I will hate to see him go, I can see where he is coming from. He eats, breathes and sleeps celluloid and this digital world isn't what he "signed up for." If there is anything good that can come out of this, it is that we will be getting some awesome film literature books from him after his retirement.
