bad_fur_day1: Good films can seem to pop out of nowhere sometimes,
That's true, and I'm sure something will turn up. I'm just talking about the big, hyped up movies.
bad_fur_day1: Guy Ritchie is doing something with King Arthur wasn't he.
He is, but I wish he wasn't. Don't get me wrong, I'm not saying he's a bad director, but King Arthur? That feels entirely wrong for his sensibilities. I'm sure it will be a servicible blockbuster, but I don't look forward to it at all. I love arthurian legends deeply, as something far more important, beautiful and fascinating than just a pop culture construct to be mined for entertainment. I love Steinbeck's, White's and Tolkien's versions, I love Boorman's Excalibur. A Guy Ritchie King Arthur? No thanks.
bad_fur_day1: The new Alien might be further along than everyone might think.
Yeah. One is a sequel to the pile of crap that was Prometheus, and the other will supposedly be made by the dipshit who made District 9. There isn't enough "nope" in the world.
I guess Rogue One is the most interesting thing on the horizon, because with Episode VII being basically a remake, it fall to the spin-off movies to be the hope for something new and fresh in the Star Wars universe.
