Sucker Punch (2011)

SFX gave it a front cover but will you be suckered in?

Well I will be there. This one won't be as good on the small screen. I'll give it a chance, even though I'm no fan of 300 and thought that Watchmen was pretty but souless. Dawn Of The Dead I sort of like. This looks......pretty and.....interesting.

It's either going be to a complete mess or somehow all the parts will come together and it'll work really well. It's going to be worth a watch either way.

Read somewhere that the movie hadn't tested well.

I loved Watchmen, 300 and Dawn of The Dead, so I expect this film to be as good and you can bet i'll be queing to see it

[Wee Little Puppet Man]

I'm hoping this will be good. I wasn't the biggest fan of 300 even though I've seen it a couple of times but I rewatched Watchmen a while ago and liked it a lot more the second time round, and it perked up my enthusiasm for Superman a bit too.

Hell, I wouldn't pay attention to that. The stories you read about film testing, especially the one about Deep Blue Sea, changed endings and all that jazz.....

What do I care what a bunch of random folks wrote at the end of their free movie experience?
Because based on the things I've heard in the past, these audiences always come across as morons.
For more information, read up on the making of 'Deep Blue Sea'. Sadistic b*stards.

What worries me is that this feels like "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow" all over again. I was excited by all the early promotion for "Sky Captain..." but when the film came out it was a cold cold experience. Snyder's track record doesn't help...

Dawn of the Dead - Fun, one of the better zombie films, but is what it is, a mindless zombie actioner
300 - Great looking, but never been able to stay awake for the whole film
Watchmen - Still not got around to seeing it, but always left with the impression of a great looking, but ultimatly empty movie.

I'm already convinced Superman is dead in the water with Snyder at the helm too, but hopefully Sucker Punch will give a spark of hope...

yes but no - I get the same Sky Captain vibe - but I loved it when it came out so that's a good vibe for me :-D
