It's a bit like Darkman, but with shoes. And a budget. And better actors.
I'm officially curious.

~~Rob Schneider...~~ I mean... Adam Sandler is a Cobbler. With shoes everywhere! Until one day, he became ~~a carrot~~ a physical doppelganger of whoever else's shoes he puts on! And he's about to discover that derp, derp de deedley tum te terp. Adam Derp is.. THE COBBLER! Derp!

Ok, yeah, it looks kinda interesting in a "boy that trailer sure gave me the sense I'd watched the whole movie already" kind of way.

I vaguely remember reading a review/report about that being laughed out of a festival something or other it screened at earlier this year.

This doesn't look like the shoe-in for an Oscar that Sandler was hoping for. I imagine it'll take a long time to heel from that wound.

I love this review:

The last ten minutes of The Cobbler are a special kind of awful. The rest is a mere disappointment coming from McCarthy, but business as usual for Sandler.

MEHHHHHHHHHHHHH.

My enthusiasm, she be tempered.

I don't know, could be okay. Not sure why they'd have to make a newer dinosaur, but there you go.

And why do movie scientists always create monsters? I mean, to do so they'd have to be super smart, so you don't think they'd follow the ramifications of their actions?

Apparently they had every species under control, so they probably thought that they could handle everything.

*shrug* Looks like fun. I'm in.

Was that shot at the end suggesting that Pratt's character had a pack of hunting raptors?..... cause that's kinda cool.

I'm hoping it's the film version of the raptor/cage/motorcycle chase from The Lost World book. THAT would be cool.

You know what seems like a great idea?

GOING BACK TO THAT FUCKING ISLAND FULL OF GIANT MAN-EATING MONSTERS.

Still kind of want to see it, but man people in the JP universe are a special kind of stupid.

I have a feeling that Adam Sandler could deliver the performance of a century in the greatest movie ever made, and the snobs would still laugh it out of a festival and the critics would still pan it.

I can't wait to see the Ron Swansaurus or maybe an Andysarchus gobble up Leslie right off a toilet.

Yeah, I am so over this trope. The hubris of scientists is completely overplayed. Science has waaay more interesting conflicts than "guy doing something he shouldn't".

He actually got pretty big praise for his performance in Punch Drunk Love, which is a movie in which Adam Sandler proves, to the surprise of everyone, that he can actually act.

edit: Charlie ninja'd me.

Charlie Don't Surf · Nov 25, 2014

also re the movie and not just the performance, Punch Drunk Love was made by critical and snob darling Paul Thomas Anderson, and as a critical snob, I think it's one of his best

George Lucas' new CGI kids film

Did you get the message from the trailer? It was that tolerance is good. I think I'm gonna skip this one.

One of the pitches for Jurassic Park 4 had to do with a raptor SWAT team, so maybe that's what that is.[DOUBLEPOST=1416966417,1416966161][/DOUBLEPOST]

See, the thing is, Dr. Wu is a character in Jurassic World. He was also there when shit went down in Jurassic Park.

You've got a guy who's got first hand experience with the bad things that happen when you breed smart dinosaurs.

In the book, yes. In the movie, no, although IIRC he got off the island before the dinosaur poo hit the ventilation system.

That was physically painful to watch.

So... Exodus: Gods and Kings. Is it going to turn out to anything but The Ten Commandments for the dudebro/Call of Duty/doritos and dew crowd?
