anybody else see the trailer for Deja Vu? THe beginning is really cool. they showed it before the prestige when i went and saw that.

Yeah, I saw Deja Vu's trailer already. It looks like another Denzel hit.

at first i thought something was wrong with my tv!;]

I know! How cool was that intro though? I loved how it played on the deja vu concept. DEJA VU Indeed!

meh, I was disappointed with dominoe, hopefully tony scott can go back to the good stuff with this one. His last one with denzel was pretty good.

With Domino Tony Scott was really pushin the creative envelope as far as camera shots -- from what I've read about and seen of deja vu, scott is less focused on camera-creativity and more on exploring the Deja Vu theme. And any time you put Denzel and Scott together you are going to get a great film.

opens tonight and paula patton was in my newspaper this morning. damn is she fine.

who's going tonight/this weekend?

looksv like another overdone Jerry Bruchhiemmer crapfest with too high a concept for the idiot film makers to pull off coherantly. it's gonna be Man on Fire all over again.

i wanna see it
looks pretty good

Parts of Man on Fire I enjoyed. I'd have to say it was the pure violence in it that I liked. It's one of those movies I like to watch when I'm in a bad mood... like Ghosts of Mars or any shoot-em-up movie.

Most Denzel Washington movies are decent or better. So Deja Vu should be at least a decent movie.

problem is though, that those movies dont know what they are, they take themselves seriously and are just overall lame and overwrought.

for shootemups it's John Woo ftw, but if lame dubbing/subtitles arent your thing for movies with skeleton plots, its all about Desperado, Once Upon a Time In Mexico or Equilibrium. those three films are simple, fun, and very very cool, without all that pretencious directing and over-involved plot.

Ahh, Once Upon A Time In Mexico, great memories.

My friend from Russia was over here when it was in theatres, and it broke down. So we had him tell the people at the front that he was the Russian Premier and demanded 500 free movie passes. Needless to say, it didn't work.

It is a great movie.

As far as the thoughtless shooter movie, if you don't take them seriously and merely as a means of simple entertainment, they aren't terrible. I do see what you're saying though. They can be very lame at times.

Once Upon a Time is actually the sequal to Desperado, which is one of my very favorite action films.

El Mariachi was the movie prior to Desperado, wasn't it?

it was, but Desperado blurrs the line between sequal and remake to El Mariachi. it was kind of a reimagining/continuation, the ending of El happens before Desperado begins, but the events in the film are sort of repeated, settings are revisited and even the guy played El in the first film returns as one of the Mariachi's sidekicks in Desperado. of the three, as is usual with trilogies, part 2 is the best one.

I want to see it.
