[Movies] The Upcoming Movies Trailer Thread

Nope, PTSD
I'm interested now.
It's not like there's a set Canon to any of this, so doing a Joker movie can't really ruin other versions of the character.
Jared Leto has ensured this cannot be the worst Joker.
I like the idea of Gotham sucks, as it has and will, and this guy being a victim of that who reacts differently than Bruce.
Considering all the elseworlds and what ifs and parallel universes, I have room in my brain for this.

We need reaction for laughing and crying at the same time.
Looks like the Rock isn't available for every movie.
That Joker trailer left me feeling gloomy. It looks like it might be hard to watch.
That's where I am. It looks super interesting, but I don't think it's going to be any fun.
I agree. I am not sure that I want to try to understand the monster or have sympathy for the devil.

Teaser for the new CGI animated Addams Family movie:
Everything I like (music, James Earl Jones) is from the original while Scar's performance is off and the faces are vacant and expressionless.
Yeah the facial expressions are the biggest loss for me. There are shots in the trailer that are direct recreations of classic shots from the animated movie, and the lack of facial expressions greatly lessens the impact of those scenes.
Also now we won't be able to see Nala's classic "come hither" look.
The first one had computer animation too. In particular the wildebeests stampeding was an early (trying not to be detected I mean) usage of it.
Ya the voices. Glad James Earl Jones is back, but trying to follow Jeremy Irons? Good fucking luck.
Absolutely. This trailer's Scar doesn't bring the sarcasm and menace of the original Scar.
Best surprise on our London trip in 2016? Audio guide starting with "Welcome to Westminster Abbey, my name is Jeremy Irons and I will be guiding you..."! *Bam* Hooked!

I liked what Jon Favreau did with The Jungle Book, but this trailer is very disappointing.
It's just so... lifeless by comparison.
Then again, I felt the same about all the other live action remakes. And why I haven't seen any and won't see this or Aladdin.

I don't think they actually GAF if the movies do well, as long as they just serve to extend copyright on the originals. Because a company that earned 90% of its cash off the back of the public domain absolutely recoils at the idea of anything of theirs ever returning to it.
That's why Fan4stic exists, too. It was cobbled together just to retain the rights.
Right. That’s why I said “or rights in general” instead of “copyright.”
It’s still a selfish move, even when drug companies do it to artificially extend patents.

Not true. Particularly in Dumbos case, the new version of the movie does not extend the Copyright associated with the old movie because the old movie is a fixed creative piece not being modified by the new one. And you can’t copyright the ideas, concepts, or situations attached to it. Having a live action Dumbo only creates a copyright for that film and has no bearing whatsoever on the old.
Essentially in 20 years or so, you can draw the animated Dumbo doing whatever you want and unless Congress signs a retroactive copyright extension (which they will), Disney is powerless to stop it.
