I haven't seen Real Steel yet, but was always interested in watching it. It had a production budget of 110 million, but only made 85.4 million here in states, but it did phenomenal over seas with over 200 million, bringing it's world wide total to almost 300 million. Had it been released closer to the holiday season last year, it would have done better. I guess the studios were still unsure about it. |
Real Steel was good huh? I have to check that out because the trailers I remember made it seem super cheesy.

LOL and I quote.....LMAO
Obviously you're not a Farrell fan THX lol. I haven't seen much of his stuff ( only Alexander, Minority Report, Parnassus and Horrible Bosses) generally but give it a chance when it comes out. Of course the whole craze goes both ways but I still think that The Dark Knights success was down to the Ledger effect of his passing. It was a great performance by him for sure, to the point of feckin scary....but I still believe it was that factor alone, because Bales performance as Batman is the best to date but not worth writing home about. I dont know if I thought they were both gonna be good especially 'Begins' , I'm a huge Batman fan and your faith does need to be restored after the trauma that Joel Schumacher left on the world, thank goodness for Chris Nolans vision. Yes thats pretty much what I said about Avatar, no story just the focus on the 3d stuff, the whole 'see it in 3d' is just a sham and a total ball ache for us involved in the process, 3d conversion/technology isnt well liked by most. Yeah the audiences level of expectation for films is pretty below par these days, the majority of the stuff in that top 10 is pretty bog standard run of the mill, bangs and pops and get the popcorn down you. Pirates 4, very below par after the other 3, good generally but below the standard set by the others, even Depps performance wasnt up to scratch. Potters...yawn!! nice effects but wake me when its finished. Now, Real Steel, yeah seriously have a look at it at least, you probably think Im nuts. When I hired it last week, my wife and daughter asked me what it was about, I said well its errm Hugh Jackman some kid and Boxing Robots... - their faces were a picture!! Boxing Robots?? groan. So we put it on, myself expecting my wife to sleep after 10mins, but nooooo, it actually made her sit up and watch this relationship of Jackmans and the estranged son evolve and develop in the space of 90mins...we were bloody riveted!! Anyway give it a go......story and character pretty damn good, one of Jackmans best roles if you ask me. Jay |
I love the original Total Recall and I'll probably give this one a go too. I can take or leave Farrell so I'm good either way. He doesn't really have range as an actor (neither does Arnie for that matter) but how many mainstream celebs do? Between the comic book spin offs, the remakes, and the sequel/prequel bit thats so habitual these days, it's not easy for me to get excited about movies.
|
Good call Gen, thats exactly my point about Arnie et al.
J |
Yeah, Arnolds acting is really sub par, and it's gotten worse in his later years; however, you have to agree, he's still the king of movie "one-liners". He's supposed to film a movie with Stallone called "The Tomb" some time this year.
I will have to check out Real Steal Pretty soon. |
Ahh you must look out for the Arnie quotes on youtube...bloody funny. I think its called 150 Arnie quotes....something like that LOL...no oscar winner for sure

Have guys forgotten about phone booth really really cool movie. Also just watched wrath of the titans and in my opinion the 3d is the best so far even compared to avatar...and that's all i can say that was good about that movie, I left the movie thinking ummhhhhh what was the story about.
|
LOL yeah alot of people have said that about Wrath of the Titans...what story??
LOL Jay |
I wonder if people would be more positive if they just started labelling things as tech demos or something.
|
or the latest game trailer stwert? LOL
cheers bullet |
