Sucker Punch

Post by brooce-leroy »

Mark Kermode hated it, I bet romero had a wank (metaphorically and otherwise) over this. I think I'll be waiting for BD/DVD before I see this. Tempting for the visuals but the plot is supposed to be non-existent and only there to service the aesthetics. I don't want to pay a twenty quid just for a feature length music video!

Yeah I don't think I fancy it anymore, I can see it being a Transformers 2-like experience. He did a great job with Watchmen though in my opinion.

The only Snyder film I've seen thus far was the Dawn of the Dead remake and that didn't exactly blow my skirt up.

Myself, Missus, and maybe a large pepsi max.

I like Dawn of the Dead re-do, but I found 300 to be a watch-once affair (even though Ged's six pack was impressive). I really liked Watchmen, although I've only seen the theatrical cut to date (I have the dir-cut on BD, but not the ultimate edition cut). I've no interest in the Owl movie though.

Fair do's Bruce :)
I enjoyed 300, it was very stylish and good fun to watch, but maybe a bit style over substance.
Not seen Watchmen yet and not keen on horror so dont think I'll see the Dead film.

I think both "300" and "Watchmen" were great films and wonderful comic-to-film conversions.
