Okay.
They had me at Quintin Tarantino.
Did someone say Kurt Russell in a western?
And I won't say no to Walton Goggins, either.

Isn't he in it?
I guess not.[DOUBLEPOST=1439431665,1439431310][/DOUBLEPOST]I saw the preview on a smallish screen and thought Tim Roth was Waltz.
I am all over that.
PLEASE tell me Sam L Jackson's character in this is the ancestor of Jules Winnfield, that would be hilarious.
Considering Django is the ancestor of Shaft and Tarantino's film (largely) take place in the same universe, it wouldn't surprise me if this turns out to be true.
Shame the Vega brothers can never have that flash-back scene on the big screen, C'est la vis!
I doubt anything of value was lost. If you read interviews from the early 2000s, he likes to talk a lot of projects, but actually does very few. Doesn't mean every project he thinks up is worth doing.
Meanwhile, a second Jem trailer has dropped. And it looks like the movie does have some sci-fi elements like the cartoon. For example, Synergy is in this one, so at least there's tha -
AW WHAT THE HELL? Ya dun goofed on that, too, movie?

Jem and the Holograms, directed by Dean Devlin and Roland Emmerich.
Hey, c'mon now, this is a movie projector attached to a furby!

I'd say "hey, could be a good movie and just a shitty adaptation," but it looks so generic.
Also, I foresee a lot of product placement in that movie's future.

Based on how negative initial reactions have been, the studio will either ignore promotion almost entirely, or go crazy hard. Given that it's kind of a second teir property to begin with, I think that it will be the former and not the latter.
I mean in-movie; like having ads for Pepsi or whatever on the Youtube screens, or Pizza Hut in the background here and there. That sort of shtick. They'd have likely already secured that stuff. I'm wondering if they paid Google to use Youtube or if Google paid them or what.
It baffles me how anyone thought this was a good idea, or if they had a generic script they thought they could slap across a license they had. Chicken or egg ...
It wouldn't surprise me if it was a generic script first and they slapped on the name to sell it. They've done that with quite a few films. The I, Robot film with Will Smith, for example, started life as a script called Hardwired.
See, the that sort of thing just irks me. In retrospect, after fully divorcing it from the "source material" I, Robot is actually a really good sci fi action thriller. Adding the title did nothing but alienate me to something that I would otherwise have considered a good movie. Also, just recently learned that Alan Tudyk is played the robot.
I never knew that but now that you say it, its so incredibly obvious.
I'd love to see a horror movie starring Alan Tudyk, Michelle Rodriguez, Felicia Day, and Sean Bean, and they all live, just to fuck with the viewer.
Didn't her character die in the Buffy finale? I know she was there, but I can't remember if she made it out alive.
Yeah I did the same thing. Then I posted the name of the show in a moment of derp and had to go back and delete the post.

Are we going to throw in Tim Curry as the villain, and have him live as well?
If that means that you'll never catch up on the show, @Dei did you a favor.
Pretty sure she survived that. Felicia Day played Vi, who was seen on the bus afterwards. Among the "named" Slayers, I think Amanda was the only death.
