Nicolas Cage Glowers His Way Through The Black Plague In The Trailer For Dominic Sena's SEASON OF THE WITCH!
Beaks here...
I don't mean to be pessimistic about a January 2011 release that was shot in the fall of 2008, but I'm just not expecting all that much from Dominic Sena's Budapest-shot Black Plague epic, SEASON OF THE WITCH. Perhaps this new trailer will turn me around on the Nicolas Cage/Ron Perlman two-hander.

as will Season of the Witch
-
Probabaly not a great movie
-
Why the hell was it called Halloween 3?
-
Misogynists
-
And if there's any way to work in a bee attack, it would be appreciated.
-
8 more days till halloween, halloween,halloween<P> 8 more days till halloween SILVER SHAMROCK
-
And...a bigger boat.
-
I'll see this because he is never bad. Only sometimes not as great.
-
And a bigger boat while you're at it. I have a feeling this is going to be another potentially good story buried by horseshit. I'll see anything with Ron Perlman though, so I'll hope for the best.
-
Nice one sir.
-
BURN HER! BURN HER! That makes this the second misogynistic movie about wichcraft Nicholas Cage has starred in. The lovely Claire Foy notwithstanding, I'm skipping this, especially since I already saw Black Death which had exactly the same plot and, while flawed, was better than this looks.
-
Although he's probably in it for 3 seconds, like he was with Golden Compass.
-
When we rented Matchstick Men and it had the old reliable Nic Cage, acting his ass off. There IS still good actor in him. Michael Bay hasn't driven it from him fully.
-
Sorry.
-
Nic Cage is solid in most of what he does. This looks like good ol' fashioned entertainment with a bit of darkness and mystery. I'm in!!
-
. . . she's made of wood.
-
I got better... Burn her! Burn Her!
-
another Nic Cage movie nobody will give a shit about! When will Hollywood wise up & stop paying this one-trick-hack-fucking-pony millions of dollars to "Star" in movies?! Of course, it's not just about him. HWood doesn't get the idea that Stars attracting an audience to whatever movies they appear in is becoming a thing of the past. It's the digital age now, & thanks to youtube, facebook, & other social media, everybody's a "Star" now...at least in their own minds. Getting an audience to see your movie these days is becoming more & more about the spectacle of the thing rather than who's in it. At least it's starting to look that way.
-
Get on the ball AICN! The publisher of Penthouse dies and you can't wait to morn him but one of the most important producers of the last 40 years dies and you still haven't said anything 7 hours after Deadline reports it! WTF!
-
God, this looks awful. Nic needs a new agent.
-
I like the guy. One of my favorite actors next to James Woods and Sam Neill.
-
This guy is working his ass off to pay the IRS. I'll go see this to help his broke ass out.
-
Its just good Karma man.

Skyline will suck, and this doesn't look too promising
by gun_will_travel
I like monster movies, but Skyline just looks campy. I'll probably watch it anyway, just to see how heavily it rips off Cloverfield and ID4. It's going to take a lot for me to refrain from shouting "Bring out your dead!" during this trailer, though.
-
Try to pay attention before you bitch.
-
Its true.
-
was that a trailer or the entire movie...?
-
"Let's do this." "We're gonna need more holy water." If you're gonna set a film in olden days with formal language, don't have people talk like they just walked out of Starbucks, for goodness sake. Sheesh.
-
of course it won't be...because The Crusades and the plague were both pg-13 events
-
A quick Google search will provide a Euro and an Aussie review, both saying that Skyline totally sucks!
-
This looks like it should be dark and moody fun. Which means it will probably be bloody terrible. Shame.<p>Nice looking production design though.
-
Worst one in recent memory was in Clash of the Titans from last year. The man from ancient Greece said something like "we gotta" or "we're gonna" in the trailer.<P> And that alone kept me from seeing the movie
-
the series was supposed to be about non related Halloween stories, but the second one was demanded by the studios to have Meyers in it. The third one should've been the second one, but it was too late. People associated Halloween with Michael Meyers.
-
style film. I miss those harder edged dark fantasy and sword & sorcery films. Nowadays all the fantasy films are more sanitized Harry Potter or Narnia types.
-
I think he will kill Michael Myers and chop him into little pieces this time
-
they should have ended the trailer without giving away that she's a witch. And they shouldn't have stolen the jaws line, swapping holy water for boat. And they shouldn't have dubbed christopher lee. ugh.
-
Check RottenTomatoes. It's not pretty. I must say, however, that Season of the Witch looks much worse. Yeah, Nicolas Cage is bad, usually, but has he accumulated so many sin as to deserve this movie?
-
the story of the Plague retold from a flea's point of view. Starring Big Rat, and the Stinky Flea Brothers. Lots of puking vomit, vile growths, and a great I've Got a BuBoe theme song.
-
...but not in this kind of crap. Bad Lieutenant could get him an oscar though.
-
as Fu Manchu.
-
He used to be one of my favorite quirky character actors. Valley Girl, Raising Arizona, Wild at Heart, Honeymoon in Vegas, Red Rock West, Leaving Las Vegas. The guy was great in dramas, comedies, you name it. Then? Ever since he won the Oscar, career spiral started. I think movies like the The Rock and Con-Air corrupted his ass somehow. He can still be good in recent movies: Bringing out the Dead or as others mentioned, Matchstick Men and Bad Lieutenant. But for every one of those you get five crapfests like National Treasure, Ghost Rider, Knowing, Bangkok Express or whatever B-movie shit that was. Used to be I would see a film Because he was in it, now his presence is almost always an automatic pass. What a shame.
-
Knight's Tale was bad enough, with the rock 'n' roll music and contemporary language, but the entire thing was that way and it remained consistent, if annoying. But to jump back and forth just demonstrates sloppy scripting and/or acting.
-
Killing me's not gonna bring back your GODDAMN HONEY!!!
-
Ha ha! You rock. 'We shall use my larger scales!'
-
But this looks like a B movie.
-
some blind Templar Knights riding in on horses in slow motion and you'll have my ass on that seat.
-
Nic may never, never come home...
-
....Hollywood can never quite do medieval the right way, - this looks like a fan-funded Kingdom of Heaven crossed with The Name of the Rose (which starred Pearlman also), - I love movies representing the medieval period, but I would rather be stool-ducked than sit through this...
-
Come on folks- is there a reason that this just "disappeared" from the radar despite the powers of the supernatural?<br><br> Why wasn't it released last month at Halloween, or at least in the fall? It doesn't have the feel to be released in winter, especially considering all of the family fare most will be spending their well earned $$$ on. <br><br> Nope. Flop. Shame.
-
The Name of the Rose was fucking fantastic!! Not saying you are doing it, but you can't compare Perlmans "Salavtore" to the limp characterisation in this steaming pile. I would rather watch "Desperation" again, and that's saying something.....
-
You missed "Clash of the titans 2010?????" Well done, sir! Trust me, you missed FUCK ALL!!!!!!!!

The flashbacks in "Sorcerer's Apprentice" were enough for me...
by Anna Valerious
Although I'd rather have a sequel to that film...
-
The trailer for that movie was scarier than the movie itself and one of the scariest trailers I have ever seen.
-
Christopher Lee? Counts? I see what you did there.
-
damn was his role in The Wicker Man remake the begining of his Career low points.But Chris Lee is worthy of checking out.No one does Drac better than "Dooku" himself.
-
Seems to hit all the marks: out-of-place/time dialogue, massive CGI, the operatic chorus, the WTF-is-happening?! quick-cuts, probably all the best action/lines given away, etc. I detect a slight "Van Helsing" vibe to it, meaning it's hard to take seriously or real any true danger or fear. Just looks like a ton of movies out in recent years, as though it's coat-tailing on about 5-6 others that have come and gone. Oh, and Cage with yet another ridiculous hairstyle. Is that in his contract? Every movie he's in, he has to sport an even more unbelievable, fake-looking 'do than the one before? Sean Connery does this too, I've noticed (for all the talk about how he's a "sexy bald man" and so on, how come he never appears as such in any of his movies? One ridiculous rug after another, none of them looking right or real). I guess that makes "The Rock" some crucial high-point in cinematic hair history, the meeting of these two actors?
-
And slo-mo battle scenes that suddenly speed up?! Wow!! This movie will break new ground in how tired cinematic clichés can be rehashed! Kudos to all!!

dominic sena makes junk like 'Gone in 60 Seconds' and 'Swordfish
by ragingfluff
... that said, the scenery looks nice, this looks stupid but fun, and i will need something to chase away the post-Christmas blues
-
look up the meaning of "two-hander"
-
I guess that explains all the hate it´s getting.
