Future releases [2]

Looks quite interesting.

What's that music in the first trailer that seems to be used over and over in like every third trailer?
And the second trailer I think is Bachianas Brasilieras, but I may have it mixed up.  If one of the classical folks can ID it I could sleep at night.

Very Odd! I did not expect to see John C. Reilly in this, that's for sure. I was wondering where I'd seen Rorhwacher before, but then I checked IMDB and realized it was the movie I Am Love.

According to its Wikipedia page it is an english-language film, which explains Reilly's appearance in an otherwise very Italian film. It looks interesting, but it is an Italian fantasy-thing, so I can't say I'm expecting a great deal in terms of solid plot. The films visuals alone are very appealing though, so here's to it being very good indeed!

No, not Bachianas Brasilieras! This is gonna drive me nuts! Bungo - help out....please!

I'm quite keen on the redhead, by the way...

which music Halfy? the trailer with no dialogue or the trailer with the Italian voiceover?

is this what you mean? whatevs. its stunningly beautiful

Thank you!

Faure's Pavane, I should have known. It's got the same cello thumping of BB n.5.

But then there's the music for the second half of the Italian one, which I believe is movie music that's been lifted over and over and stuffed into trailers.  But which movie?

Or maybe it's just the damn chord changes and voicing: I-IV-I-V
Put the third in the upper voice to start and off it goes by itself.

this looks superb! is what I have been waiting for a long time. it also got one of my favourite actors Alba Rohrwacher in it who I said at the time would have made the perfect Tauriel, but instead we got a Hollywood hottie. anyway can't wait for this could only find a trailer  in Italian      

I also love these sort of films They are like an Hieronymus Bosch painting come alive I think thats why I like GDT's films ? they have that element about them too.

Wot?


Arnold Schwarzenegger's 'Legend Of Conan' Will Be A Sequel To The 1982 Original

The Huffington Post | By Erin Whitney

Arnold Schwarzenegger is officially reprising his role as Conan the Barbarian, and not in a reboot.

The 67-year-old actor was first said to return to the sword-wielding character back in 2010 for the reboot "The Legend of Conan," but now the new film's producer and co-writer Chris Morgan confirms it will be a direct sequel to the original 1982 movie, "Conan the Barbarian." The new film will skip over Schwarzenegger's "Conan the Destroyer" and Jason Momoa's 2011 stand-alone "Conan" film, and depict the character 30 years later following John Milius' original film.

"When we meet him again, Conan has been many things over the course of his life -- a thief, a warrior, a pirate, a king, a legend -- and is now an older man," Morgan told fan site The Arnold Fans. Morgan also teased that at least three characters from the 1982 movie will return in "Legend."

Fredrik Malmberg, "Legend" producer, also hinted that the new movie will be pretty violent. "Our marching orders from the studio were to create a film worthy as a successor to the 1982 film, which was pretty brutal," he told the fan site. We can definitely expect to see the Governator in some epic fight scenes, which he's really excited about.

"It is the greatest honor to be 67 years old and to still be asked to come back into all those franchises," Schwarzenegger told The Arnold Fans. "I'm really excited to be working on this –- to do another Conan movie, and hopefully it will be soon!" The actor is also returning in "Terminator Genisys" this summer and is in talks for an upcoming "Twins" reboot, "Triplets," which has already been written by Josh Gad.

its a never ending stream of remakes

Shhh. It's not a remake.

"Conan, what is best in life?"

"Create a remake, see it flop at the box office, and to hear the lamentation of the fanboys."

Yes!

Oh! Well, how about that.

Funny how these things sneak up on you with little to no warning and yet they always seem utterly inevitable when they do arrive.

Michael Fassbender as Macbeth- and with a passable Scottish accent too!

Damn, that looks really good. Macbeth is one of my favorite Shakespeare plays, going back to when I saw a production of it directed by Teller (of Penn & Teller) at the Folger's in DC. Plus Marion Cotillard and Michael F. Assbender should be worth the price of admission.

Its my favourite Shakespeare play so I am rather looking forward to this one.

trust you to go for the Scottish one.

I'm definitely checking that one out.

That looks really good! I don't think there's ever been a good adaptation of Macbeth for film (as opposed to pretty much shooting it as a play like the BBC version).

(I did see the Roman Polanski butchery years ago. A movie yes. A good adaptation....no.

trust you to go for the Scottish one.- Figg

Well its a close call between Macbeth and Henry V, and you dont get much more English (or full of propaganda) than Henry V. Besides Macbeth isnt exactly pro-Scottish, and it butchers more than people it butchers history, Macbeth King of Scots, was actually quite a good ruler as the times went.

'Unlike later writers, no near contemporary source remarks on Macbeth as a tyrant. The Duan Albanach, which survives in a form dating to the reign of Malcolm III, calls him "Mac Bethad the renowned". The Prophecy of Berchán, a verse history which purports to be a prophecy, describes him as "the generous king of Fortriu"- wiki
