A Marvel Fanboy

Assassin's Creed | 12/21/2016 | Michael Fassbender, Marion Cotillard | Final Trailer on Page 71

Recommended Posts





I think with this cast and this trailer this will end up breaking the genre's curse, but that trailer is typical FOX quality, at least of late. Using an ultra modern song that doesn't fit at all is their marketing department's MO now I guess. 

 

I'm still irked by the lack of an 80s tune for the Apocalypse trailer. Do these movie studios realize that the rise of hipsterism among young people means a lot of them probably listen to older music?

And there's some great 80s music that would have done a better job.

As someone who's never played the games, this trailer does not make me excited for it.

It was fine until Kanyes music kicks in. But even that didn't bother me as much as the bland action. It just seems uninteresting. Nothing grabbed me about any it except maybe the fall from the tower (which has been done to death in the Underworld series).

Don't crucify me. That might be what the game is, I don't know.

I have faith in Fassbender to make any project good so I'm sure the actual movie will be decent. This didn't make me want to see it though.

I think the song really works, but I have to admit that this remix with Jesper Kyd's music from the games on Reddit is really on another level: 

 


Wow so that just improved that trailer like 50x and made me interested to see it. So maybe it was just the music for why things felt so bland.
 

The music of the game actually goes with the visuals. It feels a lot more epic. Kudos to whoever made that.

You people need to branch out musically speaking.

 

You need little things like harmony, scales, melody, beauty, virtuosity ...

 

Kanye, It s just collage, brilliant collage but still collage.

Unlikely, it's opening against Passengers, and a week after Rogue One $20m/$70m would be my guess. that song in the trailer pretty much killed its chances at the BO. and while I liked some of the trailer. certain scenes were giving off PoP vibes. why doesn't hollywood just move forward with that Uncharted movie already, it's the most movie like video game ever.


Or Metal Gear Solid.

You realize Kanye isn't the only musician people who enjoy his work listen to?*

 

*This is a rhetorical question.

I'm super branched out musically. I provide music to some huge music producers/DJs who tour the world. 
 

Saying that, I still think this video (and that album) is one of the most brilliant things anyone in hip hop has done in the past few years. Every song on this video is good and Lost In The World w/ Bon Iver is so fucking strong. Runaway is still catchy to this day.
 


When it comes to Life Of Pablo though, I really only liked a few. Mainly FML.
 

Kanyes collaboration a few years ago with NASA (Gifted) was great too.

Most people knew who Taylor Swift was she has been famous for years. 

 

Now she is, sure, as much as Kanye? No. And during those particular MTV awards where Kanye blew up her spot in front of the entire world? Nope. No one even remembers the song she was supposed to be winning for.

Most definitely not.

 

Tylor Swift > Kanye West

 

People just started recognizing Taylor Swift's music. Kanye has been pumping out hits behind the scenes and under his own albums for years now. Hell, I still don't know the ambient sound of a single Taylor Swift song yet.

Kanye and his pornstar reality TV wife are trash. He's not talented, either. His music is 95% sampled.

 

WHAT THE FUCK: 

 

 

Taylor can't sing and generally sucks but at least she's written a few good songs without the help of co-writers. 

 

Kanye is a better artist than Taylor Swift, and it's not even close. She is a great song writer though, but Kanye wrote most of his raps.

I would say Kanye West is still way more creative then Taylor Swift. Shake It Off is really catchy but it wasn't written by just her. A lot of the songs on 1989 are manufactured radio sounds churned out from the commercial pop machine. It's just fluff and that's why a lot of Top 40 music doesn't stick around for long these days.
 

Anyway sorry for going OT.

If it makes you feel better, all the Apocalypse adverts here feature Come and Get Your Love. Totes not ripping off any other recent superhero movies.
