A New Trailer For RISE OF THE GUARDIANS!!
Here's a new tailer for RISE OF THE GUARDIANS, cribbed from the beautiful and touching GUARDIANS OF CHILDHOOD books by William Joyce (his recent THE MAN IN THE MOON is one of my five year old's favorite books).
Hopefully this film will reflect some of the heart which invariably characterizes Joyce's work. Thus far, the trailers are selling action and rambunctiousness, for which there's certainly room in the progenitor concept...but aren't the core essence on which Joyce's material pivots.
RISE OF THE GUARDIANS comes to theaters in November. Here's an embed via JoBlo...
HD of the same can be found HERE at Apple, who debuted this trailer if I understand correctly.

This looks retarded and taking a child to this should be grounds for calling CPS.

Two things immediately come to mind when watching that: 1) The voice actor for Jack is much too old (and deep). 2) I wish they would have left out everything in the trailer from Santa onward. The trailer should have ended with the Easter Bunny coming to capture Jack, stuffed into a bag, and then... trailer ends.

It's Groundhog Day!

Hate the accents and the animation, and I don't like the concept. What a shitpile.

I don't know why all these DOUCHE Bags like bagging on Kids movies... I mean, get over it, this movie was not intended to basement loving cheeto eating fat fucks... Negative Comments about this are about as stupid as movie reviews about kids movies... They're not really intended to be the most spectacular thing ever. (I mean Pixar and Dreamworks have put out some amazing movies and all, but... really) Entertaining yes, Thought provoking... meh... Whatever. You want to talk shit about a shitty movie... Goback to the Prometheus Review. :D (Zing!)

1. Polar Express was a bit creepy with the characters. 2. Seems to have been a while since we had a good movie about a bunch of mythical characters we tell our kids about every day. Really, at the end of the day, all you can hope from a Kids movie is it entertains your KIDS... I JUST had to turn of Pirates of the Carribean 3 cause my girlfriends kids have watched it NON-STOP for 2 DAYS! (Granted these kids are like 13 and 5, each watching for a different reason... Orlando Bloom and... there's monsters!) I think it's a TERRIBLE movie, but meh... I think this movie looks entertaining enough and I have high hopes for it, the premise is interesting...

that looks horrible. its as if this movie were in a can since 1993.

I get the idea that jack frost should have blue lips, but the end result makes it look like they haven't finished rendering the bottom half of his face when he talks. It looks terrible.

And I think it's not so much the film, but the producers who make these decisions.

I can't speak for the others, but I wasn't voicing my opinion of the film itself (I have none either way). I'm just so sick of the "Rise" titles. Enough already. Hell, I'm really looking forward to the next Batman film, but the title sucks ass. I remember when it was announced I was so incredbily disappointed in Nolan. He's got such a cool, unique thing going on with this franchise... and then he goes with the most unoriginal title EVER? Ugh. Still disappoints me to no end. But I'm sure the film will be spectacular regardless. Like dar1980 said: A shit title is a shit title. Doesn't matter what audience it was made for.

http://www.atvtoday.co.uk/colin-baker-doubts-hell-return-to-doctor-who-4131/ Read between the lines. He doesn't think he will be asked, and he doesn't think he can do it if he is meant to look like the 6th Doctor from his tenure. However, there are all kinds of ways to deal with the actor looking different. And Colin really doesn't have to come back as the Doctor. He could come back as his original Doctor Who role!

Sorry

Wow, a movie for all the frakin' morons out there who don't believe in religion, et cetra, & want their kids to be distracted for 2 daze while they're off also being morons. Frak you morons, this shit makes the world one not worth living on.

See, I can do it too. Nothing special.

The slight difference with Nolan using "Rises" and every other movie, is that it seems like in this case it actually has a meaning. In all these other "rise" movies, most of the time, nothing is actually even rising. I suspect Nolan chose the title because it fit, and was actually related to the story - not because he thought it sounded cool from a marketing angle. That said, I'm still not crazy about the title either. I'm just saying I think some actual thought went into it, and that makes it marginally better than usual. 'sides, I bet he really wanted to call it The Dark Knight Returns, but... couldn't, for obvious reasons.

So much negativity towards a kid movie. Looks fun to me. The kiddies will love it. And goddamnit, I like the Cossack Santa.
