The last one wasn't all that great but I'm a sucker for Kenneth Branagh in this role.

I get Meet The Spartans vibes instead of South Park vibes. But I'll give it a try.

Slotherhouse looks hilarious.

There is a write up here that I read before seeing the trailer.


https://www.polygon.com/23840513/reb...sci-fi-preview


I was optimistic after reading the article. I was far less so after seeing the trailer. It looks like it is just loads of action with no soul, but tough to tell by a trailer.

"Why does this remind me of Sucker Punch" was my first thought watching the trailer.

Then I wondered if it was going to be a series, there's SO much stuff in the trailer even 2 movies it feels like it's just going to be a race from one cool looking thing to the next.

Hopefully it's good.

Just seeing the Netflix logo on the title card was enough for me. Are there any Netflix original movies that are actually good?

Went through a list and a few that I really liked:

All Quiet on the Western Front
Tick, Tick, Boom
Hustle
The Power of the Dog
The Trial of the Chicago 7
Enola Holmes
The Two Popes
Always Be My Maybe
The King

Ya kind of torn as well. Looks like some Starcraft and Warhammer influences as well on top of the Star Wars atmosphere.

I mean Snyder has been so good in the past... I remember seeing the first trailer for 300 and thinking this looks really weird and convoluted..

I'll definitely watch it on Netflix. But based on that trailer I wouldn't be running to a theatre.

Sorry Zack...if your teaser trailer is almost 4 minutes long then I can already tell that you had trouble cutting stuff out and keeping the story concise and tight.

That movie looks like 12 interesting ideas smashed together in a mish-mashed mess.

It looks like the bastard child of 'Jupiter Ascending, Cloud Atlas and Dune' after a disgusting weekend in Vegas.
