RACE TO See The New WITCH MOUNTAIN Poster...
Merrick here...
A few weeks ago, we got our first look at RACE TO WITCH MOUNTAIN via THIS trailer. And...it looked surprisingly unsucky.
My man Buzz Lightbeer just sent a message providing (what may be) our first look at the film's poster. His message appears in the blue highlight below; you can see the poster after that.
Here's Buzz Lightbeer...
Hey guys, was driving past the Walt Disney studios in Burbank today when I saw them putting up the new movie poster for Race to Witch Mountain, had to turn around and get a 2nd look and it looks pretty damn cool. To be honest I wasn't so sure about this flick's potential after seeing the movie trailer, but this poster on the other hand looks pretty bad ass, even stopped traffic to get out of my car to snap this picture (apologies to the lady in the Blue Toyota), enjoy.

this is what i need right now

This is just bizarre. What are they going to be doing 10 years from now? Remaking the remakes? <p> At this point, asking for a film set in the future of the Matrix trilogy is heading towards a welcome new development, given the alternatives (remakes, remakes and more remakes) ...
-
I don't wanna complain about Phtoshop, but can you imagine how much cooler the same poster would look like if this would be painted?
-
comedies, fantasies, and biopics. Good thing you can't remake thrillers, because Sea Of Love is pretty good.
-
this could completely suck ass, but dwayne johnson is sort of awesome in all his movies. and annasophia robb is an amazing actress.
-
Because every week are up to 7 times more non-remakes than remakes at the american theatres, but nobody notices them, because you are crying so loud about the end of originality and how there are nothing but remakes!
-
Every week START up to 7 times...
-
has become too risky in the eyes of Hollywood executives. Why take a chance on an unproven product when the American public has already proven it will spend more money on a regular basis on recycled goods. Maybe I'm wrong, but in my mind this is the only theory that makes sense. How else you do explain things like Nutty Professor 3 (in development), Big Mommas House 2, or Cheaper by the Dozen 2? Those weren't even sequels anyone was asking for and yet, if memory serves me right, 30 million dollars worth of morons paid to see Big Momma's House 2 on it's openning weekend.
-
suck
-
-do I race to, to take a mammoth crap on those alien kids' faces?
-
film was made as long ago as 1913 and was called The witch Mountain.
-
If you take into account indies & films in limited release you're probably not too far off on that ratio. However I'll use my neighborhood multiplex as an example to counter. With 14 screens they are currently running 10 films, 4 of which are sequels (Quantum of Solace, Highschool Musical 3, Madagascar Ecape 2 Africa, and Transporter 3). Incase you're bad with math, that's 40% of the films playing.
-
It's not like they remade Star Wars or The Godfather.
-
And 75% of the movies that you named started weeks ago.
-
Cool poster. Reminds me a bit though of Close Encounters' Devil's Tower shot and for some reason, The Amazing Race.
-
Disney's not even subtle about it. The cab has a Space Mountain ad on the roof. Like anyone else who's ever been to Disney World I've ridden it despit the urban legend, which could be true, that somene stood up on it, and decapitated themselves.
-
That space ship is directly from it and people racing toa mountain? I don't know anything about this project or its history. But fromt hat total rip off of a poster - I DON'T WANT TO!!!!!
-
is dead.
-
that as well. Take away the cab and faces, and it's Close Encounters. Maybe they need to stick Richard Dreyfuss' head in the poster. If they kept the ages the same it would have been cool to see Dreyfuss driving a Winnebago.
-
The crdits are all screwed up; what's the deal? Is this a fake?
-
escape, escape, ESCAPE!!!! to witch mountain! whats all this 'race to' nonsense?..... they were trying to get home. on the way they get picked up by an old man (the sidekick from airwolf) and spend a jolly time in a campervan... very paedophillic nowerdays. This poster seems to allude to them riding in a taxi.... i hope he's called Travis...
-
If so, why isn't she front and center on the poster - with a soaking wet, low cut top revealing ample bosoms?
-
... ahh but at what is she gazing?
-
"apologies to the lady in the blue Toyota".... just to try to make your message seem more 'real'... Haha, you must think the readers here are as thick as shit. What a total studio plant job. Must try harder you bunch of cynical cunts.
-
...and a pretty damn good one. But if you look closely at the bottom/center where the little support bar comes up you can see the photo-shop lines around the edge and where the "1" meets the frame. The image itself maybe "real" but I don't think the sign is. Maybe someone with more knowledge of this kind of thing can correct me though...
-
Why so hostile? Relax.
-
I think of how hot Kim Richards was (as an adult) and it makes my pee pee maker tingle.
-
As stated in other talkbacks I am adopting this as the slogan which I will post every time I see an article on a remake/reimagining.
-
Wait who's cynical? You or the studios? I think it's a battle of cynicism. Lighten up, man. The movie looks fun.
-
couldn't get a few more (GOOD) bad ass films under his belt before he "Kindergarden Copped" his career.
-
is it a remake/reboot or a sequel? because some places say the original kids play the same roles and are these new kids parents or something, but other places simple imply they just have cameos and arent playing their original roles.
-
...there isn't one! Just an empty box. What does that tell you?
-
I'm guessing PG-13 (Stylized Violence and Mild Language)
-
It means 1) the poster's a fake or 2) it's an unfinished version without a final billing block. Either way, the whole thing should be taken with a grain of salt.
-
Don't cast for the reboot until you see how much bank this flick will bring in WB, Dwayne's your guy.
-
1. This is a REAL poster. 2. Anna Sophia Robb has all the earmarks of being one of the hottest girls in the near future. 3. What's wrong with REMAKES? I thought BATMAN BEGINS was a good remake of previous Batman films. 4. What's wrong with SEQUELS? I though TDK was a good sequel to BATMAN BEGINS.
-
But you've got me thinking. I think it was Sin City that, about a month before it was released, the TV commercials had a tag at the end stating "this film is not yet rated" meaning the MPAA had not yet signed off on it. Which would mean any posters for the film before that time would not have had a rating. However, I think the posters simply lacked the rating, and didn't (like the one above) have a blank box where the rating would be. If it is real, I think perhaps someone goofed and released the version that would eventually contain the rating instead of the intended version with no hint of rating.<p>Shermdawg, Dwayne Johnson can not be Superman as he must be Kraven the Hunter in Spider-man 4.
-
what a stupid piece of news for a stupid poster of what will be a stupid film. That poster looks like every other poster for that type of film, and some jerk named after a disney character, turned his car around to take a picture of it outside the Disney Studio. And how is batman Begins a remake?
-
Who added a D to Wayne to make it even more fucked and then calls their son it! Almost as mental as adding Mc to Weeny!!!
-
I know you say otherwise, but the role of Clark Kent/Superman is reserved for Jon Hamm. Whether he knows it or not.
-
I mean...well...you know. What a sick mind I have. But I would have totally nailed Kim Richards if I was her brother. Do we know if there will be any cameos?
-
recycling. not remaking.
-
I make movie posters for a living. www.dzynwrx.com This one is a fake. The billing block at the bottom is greek (phony place holding text) and the rating bug isn't final. Might be the final art, but definitely not finished. FYI
-
Come on guys..lets be honest here..thats like people saying.."I knew Alyssa Milano was GOING to be hot when she got older, after seeing her on Who's the Boss" I call bullshit..you closet pedos thought she was HOT right there and then and just couldn't bring yourself to admit it! So I'll say what you hyporite, faux moralist cowards won't...and I'll say it without any qualifiers...Alyssa was hot at 14..and this Anna Sophia Robb girl is hot right now at 15 and I only hope this film involves a torrid lesbo alien love scene between her and the cougarlicious Ms. Richards. Now where are my pics of Kim ca. "Hello Larry"... ;)
-
Break open the piggy bank..and spring for your webmaster to stick an EDIT BUTTON on here...it would take him/her all of 30 minutes max.
-
Also keep in mind that many of the "original" movies that are playing each week are often rehashes of older films. Some people only consider it a remake if it has the same title. I consider it a remake if it's the same essential story. Take Cruel Intentions as an example...that was essentially a remake of Dangerous Liaisons but everyone thought it was new and original. Boy were they fooled. So, I would disagree with your assessment of there being 7 times as many original movies as there are remakes. BUT! I would also say there aren't as many remakes as we would be led to believe by most of the talkbacks on here.
-
ummm she's almost 30 so i think its safe to say she's hot already. but to defend the so called "perv thinking" when people say that...in my case, i never deny i think the girl is cute if not hot already, i'm just saying if she's already this good looking, then she can only be hotter when she's older. so in the case of Miss Robb, she's very very cute...more evidence that i was a teenage at the wrong time since nobody looked that good when i was her age. but anyway yeah, she's cute now and can only get hotter with time. and as for Alyssa Milano, she didnt hit "hot" til she was 16 or 17. she was a cute kid in the early seasons but there's a reason she didnt become the "it girl of 80s tv" until she was in her mid teens.
-
so i dont read every post but in this case i shoulda, i realized the alex mack reference was to a talkbacker's name and not the old tv show as my blonde mind thought. but the rest of my rant still applies. lol

That looks totally Close Encounters of the Third Kind for Kids
by Dogmatic
-
You're probably right as to their release date. However, the problem that people have when they complain about lack of originality is that they're not exposed to originality. 3 of the last 5 films to open at #1 were sequels. And as to my point of my local multiplex showing 40% sequels, you have to understand that most of the country lives in smaller markets where they are not exposed to independent films with original concepts. The gripe amongst us who wine about originality isn't that nobody is offering originality, but that Hollywood or should I say main stream Hollywood isn't offering it. Accessability to original films and film makers is often lackluster at best until films hit dvd & blu ray, and let's face it, you don't see block buster advertising the indies or the cult films too often. Do you?
-
Wasn't the alien aspect supposed to be the "surprise twist" in the original film? (hence the kids are mistaken for witches?) I know it was a long time ago, but the poster kind of spoils it for today's kids who never saw the original.
-
...The Rock with the same look on his face as every other picture of him, that emotionless girl from that one movie, some boy that fades into the mix, and a completely unoriginal UFO. Child actors used to be good (Stand By Me, E.T., The Little Rascals).
-
You're right, Batman Begins is not a remake. But, it's just another VERISON of a Batman film. Just like alot of the other "so call" remakes out there. They're not remakes or sequels, but new versions/ takes of certain characters.
-
I said she IS HOT. But, I also said she has earmarks of being one of the hottest girls in the future. Therefore, she's not super hot just yet. Just like Natalie Portman was hot in the professional, but got really hot as she grew older. And I can appreciate when I see a teenage girl looking beyond pretty, which equals hot. It's like if you saw a ugly teenage girl, you just KNOW she's ugly. Just because a girl isn't 18 and still a teenager, does that mean she can't be pretty or hot? That's like saying a girl can't be ugly if she's under 18 too. ANNASOPHIA wasn't desirable when she was in Wily Wonka or those other films, but NOW that she's looking OLDER, I can easily see her being the next Natalie Portman, except she won't be a bi-sexual wanna be lez like Nat is. 0_o
-
It actually has some artistic qualities to it. Unlike a bunch of other posters which are just photographs that were cut and paste over a black empty background.
-
And if Annasophia has a flaw..it is that she isn't yet a would be bi-sexual/lez like the no doubt hot from puberty,fap-tasic NatP is. Still...I won't see this film unless aformentioned Disney style Annasophia/Kim Richards girl on girl action happens.
-
is that "Dwayne Johnson" is not a particularly awe-inspiring movie poster moniker. He should stick with "Dwayne 'The Rock' Johnson" or split the difference to "The Rock Johnson" or something...
-
...for my ADULT thoughts about Carla Gugino
-
You're right Alyssa Milano was hot at 14 of course I happened to be 13 years old then.
-
That image of Dwayne looks like the same generic photo used for all the Mummy posters.
-
you need to see an eye doctor. That is about as bland as you can get.
-
The only lashes I imagine when thinking about Carla Gugino, are the ones I'd give her lower regions with my tongue.
-
The only reason to watch "Bitch Mountain", and I am refering to Dwayne Johnson as the Bitch, is to see Carla Gugino's tits. I must have watched "Sin City" 100 times just for that one scene. There are bigger ones out there, but I have yet to see a pair as perfect. If the poster showed a picture of Carla in some tight outfit, then it would definately increase opening weekend ticket sales. HOWEVER, a picture of the Rock and two kids just isn't doing it for me. No Carla Gugino tits equals no box office success.
-
and I saw one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen. Liz bonin. then along came Grainne Seoige. Grainne, Grainne grainne. its that galway accent. and that long dark hair, the white skin and the green eyes. Complete and utter ice maiden. Sister sile isnt bad looking either. though she looks like she is about to throw herself at the viewer. and kathryn thomas is really hot looking. too. but liz bonin. she was geniuenly beaitiful one of her parents is from bali.
-

-
I saw whos the boss in Ireland and I never watched for tony danza, judith Light and that ugly boy or katherine helmond. as a young boy I could look at Alyssa Milano all damn day.
-
15 year old girls are NOT hot. They are children. Sickos.
-
someone needed to say that.
-
My God. It was a shock in the original.
-
The trailer was pretty good.
-
Where do you buy your crack? So younger women are not hot? 15 is a "child"? Considering that in most of Asia and Europe you are a consenting adult at 16 and off too college...my wife started her 5yr engineering degree at 16... there are quite a few that would disagree as to 15 being a "child". As to the sexuality/hottness of these women..all I can ask is..How do you EVER watch a film, read a magazine, or surf the net?! This industry has been utilizing the sexuality of sub 18yr old women from day one. Admit it...there has been at LEAST one time you found a woman under 18 attractive..don't lie to us or yourselves. Really..I thought this hyper-moral fascism died with Jerry Falwell.
-
Fuck DIZ-NEE!!
-
...I think plenty of girls under 18 are attractive. I just refrain (sometimes, failing I'll admit) from thinking about them in a sexual way after I turned age 20 or so. The basis behind my previous comment was more of a reflecion on some of the above posts being a bit on the perverted side. But, hey if you're still a teenager then I have no problem with it. Man, I miss those days...
-
The one starring Kristen Bell and Josh Duhamel; anybody know of a release date for that?
-
ANNASOPHIA IS PRETTY! I don’t care that she’s 15yrs old. I think She’s a very pretty girl. Does that mean I want to marry her or something? Nope. Now, My great grandparents got married at 16yrs old. For over two thousand years getting married at 15 or 16 yrs old was considered the norm. It’s STILL the norm in MOST OF THE WORLD. Including the U.K. I believe. Even Jesus’ mother was only 15 yrs old when she got married. Personally I don’t find anything wrong with finding a 15 or 16 yrs old girl attractive. If I was given a choice between finding a 16 yrs old girl attractive or finding a person my age from the same sex attractive, well I would pick the 16yrs old girl EVERY TIME. It’s more natural to find females attractive than people from your same sex.

HOPE THIS MOVIE IS AN ACTUAL SEQUEL TO THE FIRST TWO
by Earthquake WestCoast
I don't care for remakes. I prefer actual sequels, even if it's 20 or 30 years later. It makes everything seem more epic.
-
...who am I to argue with Jesus?
-
Cecil B. Demille only dreamed about making God's head that frikkin' big...he's all, "Get that UFO shit out of my hair."
-
I'm a bigot? Maybe, but then again, my BEST FRIEND IS GAY! Just because I'm against and don't approve of certain things he does makes me a bigot? I'm also against people having sex with kids, does that make me a bigot against those people? I'm against people taking drugs, does that make me a bigot against those people? I'm against war, does that make me a bigot against soldiers? I'm against people getting drunk. Does that make me a bigot against them? Nope. I'm against the certain acts that people do, not the person themselves. People aren't perfect. I understand that. I'm not even close to perfect. I understand that too. There's a difference about being prejudice against people and not approving on things they do. If I was prejudice, then I wouldn't even have a best friend who was gay. Or, I wouldn't even hang out with any of my friends, who all happen to be atheist. Now would I? Yeah, that's what I thought.
-
...you're lucky anyone hangs out with you at all.
-
My friends are GLAD I don't take drugs. Otherwise once they're high, who would they have to shoo away the naked blue midgets they swear live under their beds. They're GLAD I don't drink. Otherwise who would they have to drive them home after they get drunk, so they don't harm anyone, including themselves. Or who would they have to stop them from hitting on women who has their boyfriends, that look like THE ROCK, standing right next to them?
-
in movie posters.
-
Only...in one shade of orange. Anyhoo, I'll be interested in seeing all the crossover fanfics with this and "Doctor Who"...and if you need to ask why- http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0484562/
-
I keed...I keed! I stopped all that shit years ago and now I'm that guy sometimes. Not so bad...actually yes it is it sux...but better than waking up in some strange fat chick's bed.
