Films...a new personal record
Jan. 14th, 2013 12:52 pmI saw six movies in a month! Not really a record, but I haven't done that in -years-! I may still sneak out to see Lincoln and Breaking Dawn.
( Skyfall, Hotel Transylvania, Wreck It Ralph, Rise of the Guardians, Hobbit, Les Mis thoughts under cue. No spoilers, but opinions rampant. )
As for trailers, there are two that interest me: The Last Stand (Ahnold S. pic) and Pacific Rim. Ever since The Wild Bunch and Ride the High Country, I've loved the trope of aging heroes persevering. Will it have the necessary, "I'm too old for this..." line? Probably...but I look forward to this film.
Pacific Rim: omg. They pegged me. Yes, it's CG monsters. But it's giant robots battling giant monsters! I'm already tempering my expectations, though. As usual with American films like this, I suspect that it will be too long on talking and too short on battling monsters.
