JennaJ Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 (edited) 6 minutes ago, Jack Nevada said: There is middle ground between Funny Fat Dude and Generic Leading Man. I mean look at Jonah Hill, he's been super fat and skinny and sort of fat and he's always giving interesting performances. Of course - but he took on a role in a movie that was badly written and somewhat generic. I still enjoyed that movie, but that's what the role was. Would I rather see him in more roles like Star-lord over Owen Grady? Of course. But not every role can be a huge winner and a perfect fit for Pratt's comedic abilities. BTW, some people who read the script said his character in this is actually pretty funny. That doesn't come across much in the trailer, but that doesn't mean it doesn't exist in the movie. My main point stands though... this has nothing to do with his weight. Edited September 20, 2016 by JennaJ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pratt is supposed to be a great guy. Very untypical in Hollywood. JLaw is a completely different person from the nice girl who made Winter's Bone. She was like 12 when she made that movie, lol.

My main issue is with his increasingly dull screen presence. We have enough handsome white dudes in Hollywood already. This is absurd. Right now he is probably one of the actors people will pay to see. I think the trailer is terrific and I love how they set it up to look like a romance, a mystery and an action film. I pretty much love everything about the trailer. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyway, its gonna make huge money and who knows, it might even beat Rogue one which is not getting any buzz at all i feel. This vs Rogue vs Sing will be intereing battle in dec as for awards, i was predicting it for Productions Design (the best thing about this trailer, its stunning), sound editing and Visual effects and i stand by it. 3 noms. Could be better if reviews are good This has as much chance of beating Rogue One as Blair Witch does of out grossing Conjuring. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I mean sure but I think my real problem is that Chris Pratt is 10 years older than J-Law and in the trailer, he didn't seem into her that much. Maybe the actual movie will change my mind.

Klingo Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Just looked at the ship more and realize the empty space is space for the spinning centrifuge of those 3 giant looking scythes which has to be really huge to create artificial gravity because right now, small spinning ones won't work. If it stops, they lose gravity and hence in the scenes you see them floating. At least they try to be realistic when in the future. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
That One Girl Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 Well this thread exploded. Maybe Tele would've liked it better if the Lab Rats were in the movie? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michelle Monaghan is one of the best character actress working right now in Hollywood. She had to make us believe she was swept off her feet by Adam Sandler in Pixels. Amazing performance, very underrated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

baumer Posted September 20, 2016 Share Posted September 20, 2016 I just think it has that perfect holiday feel to it. Two very likable actors, two good looking actors, a grandiose stage, a familiar plot, romance, action, mystery and as great time of year. This might be my most anticipated film of the holidays now. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They should have cut a first slow trailer that introduces the premise with a bit of mystery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pair the older woman up with the younger man. Pairing Amy Adams up with the decade-younger Henry Cavill is one of the few cool things the DCEU has done. And so casually too. If only she got anything to actually do in those movies 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
