Oh c'mon, you'd enjoy seeing a Will Smith-starring MLK biopic that opens over the 4th of July weekend, wouldn't you?

Cunga, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:20 (fourteen years ago) link

I have never enjoyed a Will Smith movie ever so no

High in Openness (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:24 (fourteen years ago) link

"too bad he doesn't make "rad" shit like Star Trek."

Even if he made the greatest movies in the world, he still shouldn't be making this movie.

Alex in SF, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:25 (fourteen years ago) link

And from what I've read

Alex's posts?

None of Spielberg's three masterpieces as a director are action-adventure.

Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:25 (fourteen years ago) link

yeah Jaws is a horror movie

High in Openness (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:26 (fourteen years ago) link

and always is a romance

s1ocki, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:27 (fourteen years ago) link

Cunga, you do know that DreamWorks /= A Steven Spielberg Film, right?

Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:30 (fourteen years ago) link

would live to see jj abrams' take on this tho

s1ocki, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:31 (fourteen years ago) link

Amistad isn't awful, actually: perfectly respectable middlebrow Oscar-style drama.

Bud Huxtable (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:32 (fourteen years ago) link

"Cunga, you do know that DreamWorks /= A Steven Spielberg Film, right?"

Uh he's producing the thing and it was his LIFE long dream to do so. So yeah it's kinda his film no matter what hack they get to helm this.

Perfectly respectable middlebrow Oscar-style dramas are awful, but hey to each their own.

Alex in SF, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:36 (fourteen years ago) link

yeah after the Hours I wanted to stab my eyes out

High in Openness (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:37 (fourteen years ago) link

Some are less awful.

Bud Huxtable (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:39 (fourteen years ago) link

Compared to the fifteen minutes of Million Dollar Baby I watched, Amistad seems positively brilliant, it's true.

Alex in SF, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 16:41 (fourteen years ago) link

Virginia Woolf's real nose is so bad, I can't believe Nicole Kidman actually went through the trouble of wearing a fake one.

And his LIFE long dream to film a slow-motion sequence of Eric Bana fucking.

Alex in SF, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 17:11 (fourteen years ago) link

Then in 1983, Spielberg fulfilled a life-long dream by producing a big-screen adaptation of The Twilight Zone.

With the inclusion of star Sean Connery, Spielberg vicariously fulfilled a lifelong dream to make a James Bond movie.

hahaah

s1ocki, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 17:13 (fourteen years ago) link

Finally, after decades of talks, negotiations, rows and reconciliations, the copyright holders of Tintin have struck a deal with Steven Spielberg and his DreamWorks studios. Finally, Spielberg’s lifelong dream will come true.

s1ocki, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 17:14 (fourteen years ago) link

Would totally dig a Tintin adaptation.

Alex in SF, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 17:16 (fourteen years ago) link

When the P.A. returned from his run, Spielberg fulfilled his lifelong dream of having an iced soy chai latte

Steven Spielberg's been workin' on the railroad all the lifelong day

JOEKS

EVERYTHING'S A JOEK

LIKE YOU GUYS PRETENDING "MUNICH" & "EMPIRE OF THE SUN" NEVER HAPPENED

Dr Morbius, Tuesday, 19 May 2009 17:58 (fourteen years ago) link

Dr Morbius is actually the screen name for that kid who dropped out of high school and watched movies with his dad instead, right?

"the whale saw her" (gabbneb), Tuesday, 19 May 2009 17:58 (fourteen years ago) link

Empire of the Sun is pretty good, but mostly ruined by Williams' oppressive score.
― Shakey Mo Collier, Wednesday, July 27, 2005 11:21 PM

seriously, Williams completely fucked up this movie

Tennis Bum (Shakey Mo Collier), Tuesday, 19 May 2009 18:04 (fourteen years ago) link

still Bale's best performance.

Bud Huxtable (Alfred, Lord Sotosyn), Tuesday, 19 May 2009 18:05 (fourteen years ago) link

"Hi terrorist, convenient that we are sharing the same safehouse, it has allowed me to see that you and I are perhaps not so different, we both love our countries but are doing morally dubious things to support them, DO YOU SEE? DO YOU SEEEEEEEEE?"

I think Zohan was a more thought provoking study of the Israel/Palestine conflict.
