Star Wars Attack of the Clones Spiderman Some show about the new guy in school. Just saw the previews last night...looks funny...
My concern about The New Guy is knowing how long that sucker has been sitting on the shelf waiting for release. They shot that thing almost two years ago. Usually when a movie is good, they don't let it sit around for so long. But it may be funny enough. There are a bunch of movies I'm looking forward to. Some notables: Spider-Man Hollywood Ending (I'm a Woody Allen fan) Star Wars, Epiode 2 Insomnia The Sum of All Fears The Bourne Identity Mr. Deeds Road to Perdition Eight Legged Freaks Austin Powers: Goldmember K19: The Widowmaker Spy Kids 2 XXX Full Frontal A Guy Thing Signs One Hour Photo and even Men in Black 2 a little.
I am pretty sure it is called "The New Guy" http://www.upcomingmovies.com/newguy.html http://us.imdb.com/Title?0241760 For the near future I want to see StarWars II, SpiderMan, Austin Powers III, MIBII, Mr. Deeds, and The Road to Perdition. Minority Report, WindTalkers, and XXX look good also. Summer Sleeper - Jackass : The Movie. But the #1 movie on my list is T3: Rise of the Machines(2003). For the future: The Matrix Reloaded (II) in May 2003 / The Matrix Revolutions (III) in Nov 2003, Indiana Jones IV(way off), and The X-Men II in May 2003 also.
It looks stupidly funny...Kind of like Scary Movie series... BTW, I teach HS kids...I'm looking for some new sarcasm material...
There's nothing wrong with a stupid little teen comedy as long as it is funny. When I first saw trailers for The New Guy about a year or so ago, it looked like it had the potential to be funny.
Hey mrpaige, thanks for the k-19 mention, I am gonna watch the trailer now http://www.apple.com/trailers/paramount/k_19/ Harrison Ford is getting 25million or 20% of the box office for this. WOW.
Also interesting Gangs of New York (L. Decaprio) (Mirimax/Touchstone) and Catch Me if you can (L. Decaprio / Tom Hanks) (DreamWorks) are going head to head at the box office on Christmas Day 2002. I wonder if Decaprio is pissed about that? Hanks does a lot of DreamWorks pictures.

How do you guys hear about these things? I have heard of maybe 5 mentioned. Does that just mean that you go to entertainment sites and I don't, or is there some other source? Minority Report Insomnia XXX Full Frontal Eight Legged Freaks Never heard of any of those (many others, too, but these sound more interesting), but more than one person mentioned them. Also, maybe one of you guys know (mrpaige?), but aren't the Cohen brothers supposed to be doing a movie called Bad Santa to come out this Christmas? I don't trust Hollywood Ending - Allen has not done good work in a while.
I got this email today with the new trailer for Reign of Fire. I think it looks pretty damn cool, it's a cool idea for a movie. http://bventertainment.go.com/movies/reignoffire/main.html?startPage=trailer
Really? I thought some of the recent ones were pretty entertaining. More light comedy than he had been doing, but still very entertaining. At least I thought so. As for Bad Santa, it's being produced by the Coens' production company but is being directed by Terry Zwigoff (of Crumb and Ghost World fame) and isn't supposed to come out until Christmas 2003 (pushed back from 2002). I generally read Ain't It Cool News ( http://www.aintitcoolnews.com ), as well as UpcomingMovies.com for information and stuff about movies (I also check out the Apple Quicktime Trailers page every once in a while), though two of the ones you mentioned, I've seen trailers for in the theaters (Minority Report and Insomnia). Insomnia is a remake of some foreign film (called Insomnia) starring Al Pacino, Hilary Swank and Robin Willams and directed by Christopher Nolan (of Memento fame). Minority Report is Steven Speilberg's new movie and stars one Tom Cruise. That trailer has been in every movie I've seen for the past couple of months. As for the others, Full Frontal is a digital feature by Steven Soderbergh with Julia Roberts and all sorts of folks in it. It may be crap, but Soderbergh is usually pretty good. XXX is a Vin Diesel action movie where he's some sort of government agent (like an Urban James Bond). I saw the trailer online at that Apple site. And Eight Legged Freaks is a comedy/horror movie about giant spiders. That trailer is also over at that Apple site ( http://www.apple.com/trailers )
Thanks, mrpaige. I am encouragd about Bad Santa if Zwigoff is directing it. I have not seen Ghost World, but I know Zwigoff pretty well (even his music). Now I remember hearing about Minority Report...will probably pass. XXX - lol, won't see it, probably. Eight legged - sounds like Arachnophobia II. As far as Allen goes, yeah, his work just hasn't held my interest for some time. Maybe it is the more shallow nature of his content or maybe his act has gotten old with me. I don't really know. Again, thanks.
I usually go to www.upcomingmovies.com www.darkhorizons.com www.imdb.com www.aintitcoolnews.com (only been going there the past 3 months) http://www.corona.bc.ca/films/main.html http://www.chud.com
Insomnia looks awesome, I dont think I have ever seen Robin Williams as heel and almost everything with Al Pacino is good. We saw the trailer on TV just the other night and we will definitely see it when it comes out.
