Sucker Punch

I wanted to see this, but I'm holding off due to what you just said and the fact that it's probably going to be paint-by-numbers Snyder.

This is based on a comic book isn't it?

No.

I'm not gonna listen to Buscemi. Without a source, it's probably just Hate being posted.

^You're not along, he said the same stuff about Battlefield: LA

Sucker Punch? Wow. I was going to watch another movie, but this one...

... takes priority.

YEEEEEEAAAAAAAAH?

@ Geth: This is information that I got from HSX (the run time) and the New York Times (test screenings). Warner Bros. called the test screenings disastrous and tried to get Snyder to cut 40 minutes. Snyder has final cut though and will most likely release the reported 160 minute version.

There were also rumors that Snyder had been fired from Xerxes due to the bad test screenings and Guy Ritchie had been offered that project (Ritchie turned it down).

Musical numbers? I don't want to see this movie anymore. No, I need to see this movie now. It'll either be awesome or fodder for years of future bad movie nights. Either way, I have to see this shit.

Musical numbers

Yeah, that just bumped this down to a rental on Netflix for me...

Are you kidding? Musical numbers just add to the insanity. The only reason I'm not seeing this on opening night is that I have a Model UN conference that day.

If the musical numbers are anything like Matthew Patel's in Scott Pilgrim then this movie will be the greatest thing ever.

This thread's just been making me less and less interested

Live action anime with musical numbers? Count me out.

That was the only thing I didn't like about Scott Pilgrim.

I come for the hot girls and fighting, and I'll stay for the musical numbers

This sounds like it was written wanting to combine in freaking thing that the creators had watched on binge the night before. I don't know how to feel about this. I'll just wait until it comes out for rental and just watch when I need a cheesy movie.

I want to see cheese on the big screen, thanks. Something this ludicrous demands that form of respect.

Doesn't matter one way or the other for me. My theater mostly plays family friendly stuff anyway, so it doesn't matter if I want to see it or not.

Snyder tends to make movies that look far more interesting than they actually are for me, so I won't be suprised if this turns out to be kinda, for lack of a better word, crappy.

Crappy is fine with me. All I ask is that I'm not bored. The only truly bad films are boring ones, because a regularly-bad film is entertaining in its stupidity, but a boring film has no redeeming qualities.

I've nicknamed it Trying Too Hard the Movie. Something about it really screams "PLEASE LOOK AT ME ISN'T THIS COOL?!

Okay, I just checked it on Wikipedia, and Snyder in an interview talks about the music in the game. Appearently the girls learn a couple songs from the brothel leader (I think that's what she's supposed to be) and use both song and dance in order to access their imaginations. That's right, the key to Crazy Awesome Land....is singing Def Leppard.

........ ........

OH MY GOD I THOUGHT THE TRAILERS DIDN'T MAKE SENSE!!!

So...what's with the name? First some random movie called Kick Ass, now Sucker Punch...will there be a third movie called Gang Bang or Head Butt?

^Kick-Ass actually made sense though since the main character is a superhero who's high school age. So, him naming himself that is fairly logical. This, I dunno except there's probably some punching.

Ditto to this. I freaking love Nullchild. He sums things up so succinctly .

Made my day.

Still seeing it.

You guys are girlie girlies for not liking a REAL musical
