Movies Im Looking Forward 2

[Mysterious F.]

I'm bringing back this topic because I have found out that director Terrence Malick's (The Thin Red Line) The Tree of Life, the only movie I had fully planned on going to see this year, has been delayed until 2010. Bummer.  

Still, director Wes Anderson (The Royal Tenenbaums) has finished Fantastic Mr. Fox, and it will be released in a week, and I might go see it.

Ninja Assasin.

Looks epic.
And Avatar.

[Mysterious F.]

Oh yes, Avatar... read a plot synopsis of it, and it seems to me to be a complete and total sci-fi rip-off of Kevin Costner's western Dances with Wolves. Both are about army soldiers injured in the legs from non-contemporary times who are removed from their services and placed off the front lines, and begin to befriend and become integrated into a different peoples, with extreme knowledge and skill at using their almost utopian natural environment, who his own consider unintelligent enemies, falls in love with one of their women, and must decide which he will choose. I'm sure some will consider this a huge coincidence, but they are just so similar that I am very, very suspicious.

There's a recent South Park episode that would agree with you Whocares.

[Mysterious F.]

Really? What is it?

[Darth Wyndisis]

Yes, the "Dances With Smurfs" episode.  The full episode isn't up on southparkstudios.com right now, but here is a clip of it (language).  In this episode, Cartman claimed he went to live with the Smurfs and fell in love with Smurfette.  Then Wendy killed them them all and stole their Smurfberries.

At the end Wendy says there is already a deal with hollywood to make a movie about that, thus Cartman goes to the theater to find Avatar announced

Yes, thank you whocares for pointing out what everyone already knew 2 weeks ago

[Uximadesk]

He didn't. So it's perfectly understandable that he point it out, you know, not everyone has a cartoon as their source of information or as a base for their opinion.

[Mysterious F.]

Sorry, JQ. I don't really watch South Park, so I wouldn't know. 

[MasterKeyX]

I really wanna see The Princess and The Frog. 

But Avatar also looks pretty epic. I mean, have you seen those effects?! And the story is provoking me to spend $11 on a ticket.

[MagmarFire]

I really wanna see The Princess and The Frog. 

Ditto.

*prays for possible KH fodder*

[Mysterious F.]

I'm interested in seeing it (I'll wait until it is on DVD, though). Largely because it is the first Disney film about a princess both African AND American.

[DW]

I have to say the previews haven't impressed me at all, though...

[MasterKeyX]

I've heard nothing but good reviews for it. They call it an "instant classic."

Maybe it will make it into KH.. will Sora be black...?
