EAGLE EYE Is One Very Big Movie

Disturibia was great fun by blindambition238	Jun 24th, 2008 08:38:32 PM
A 'teen' suspenses film that actually was equally fun as it was snarky. I would give it some points for bucking most of the modern slasher trends also if it werent for the formulaic last act. I'm interested by this pic and reckon this team will do Y: TLM justice if they ever get around to it.
Wow by kuldan	Jun 24th, 2008 08:42:03 PM
If I were to ask you to describe your thoughts on this film with the spoken word, I'm afraid your sentences would be garbled due to all the "Eagle Eye" nut-sucking you are doing. j/k :)

I really want to see this but... by mr.brownstone	Jun 24th, 2008 08:48:12 PM
My tolerance level for Billy Bob's toupee has hit zero. Seriously the dude needs to lose that thing it makes him look desperate.
No, I'm not seeing this... and who wrote this article? by JimCurry	Jun 24th, 2008 08:48:32 PM
And going from Rear Window to North by Northwest ripoffs doesn't mean you are "coming into your own.
i think the tide is changing for ole' shia.. by soup74	Jun 24th, 2008 08:48:44 PM
come on..even the haters admit, he wasnt even close to the worst thing in indiana jones... it wasnt his fault transformers was a joke either. so i guess ill start rooting for him. (this movie does look kind of cool)
Yeah, whatever, Shia is still miscast. by The Gospel According to Bastardface	Jun 24th, 2008 08:50:02 PM
He's way too young. He looks younger than he is and this should have gone to a man, not a boy.
shia is one dreamy dude by seabiscuits	Jun 24th, 2008 08:52:44 PM
this movie looks so lame.
The "Omniscient Phone Voice" is poorly performed by odysseus	Jun 24th, 2008 08:53:27 PM

I do love Michelle Monaghan though. by The Gospel According to Bastardface	Jun 24th, 2008 08:54:22 PM
She is amazing in everything.

Its The Pussy That Eats You! by Frodo T. Baggins	Jun 24th, 2008 08:57:43 PM
Looks badass. I hope they realize Shia and the chick are not bad guys fairly early. I hate movies with missunderstandings/misscomunic ations. Except The Fugitive.
I think I'll see it! by Phillyflopper	Jun 24th, 2008 08:58:29 PM
It looks interesting enough. Whether it's a ripoff of something or not, it looks a lot more interesting than the garbage that's out there. At least it's not "Disaster Movie". Ugh!!!
Im Sorry, But Is Beaks New? by Frodo T. Baggins	Jun 24th, 2008 08:59:20 PM
Or I have I just not been on this cite long enough? Ive been coming here daily for like 3-4 years. Did Beaks just get out of jail or something? Or just land the job of my dreams?

DISTURBIA by The InSneider	Jun 24th, 2008 09:03:35 PM
First of all, Disturbia has no bearing on whether or not I see Eagle Eye. Disturbia was 2/3's of a great movie. The last act was miserable and it made the movie merely a hair above mediocre. That said, I'm an unabashed Shia fan, even though Indy 4 is the only movie in theaters that I haven't seen (and won't). The kid's got the goods and I think that first Eagle Eye teaser looked amazing. I really can't wait to see Eagle Eye and the my faded memories of the forgettable Disturbia have done nothing to change my anticipation of Caruso's latest.
I liked disturbia... I didn't want to though. by TooWhippy	Jun 24th, 2008 09:04:37 PM
I'll probably see this one too.
Shia sell his soul for his career?! by Judge Briggs	Jun 24th, 2008 09:07:14 PM

What is Speilberg's obsession with Shia? by TVguy4566	Jun 24th, 2008 09:07:45 PM
It seems every movie Spielbeg produces or directs today is starring Shia LeBeouf. Why? I don't get the fascination with the guy. Yeah, his movies do well, but do you really think he was the reason for the success of Transformers or Indian Jones 4? He is a good enough actor, but I don't see him as a leading man who can carry a lot of movies and definitely not an action lead.
Name me one good thing about Suburbia. by jimmay	Jun 24th, 2008 09:18:55 PM
I'm not a Shia hater--in fact I'm largely indifferent to him, but I can't even think of one noteworthy, much less praiseworthy thing about Disturbia. The 'Burbs had more fun with the concept.
This article was written by Blankman by eggart	Jun 24th, 2008 09:20:53 PM
I should rent Disturbia. I wish Mr. Beaks would start his own website. It would rule.

Just from the trailers I've seen, this looks like a nice solid action film.....It will get my $5
Did you say Michelle Monoghan??? by wackybantha	Jun 24th, 2008 09:58:45 PM
That's all I needed to hear! She is sooo hot! And I am sooo there!
I WAS ALREADY SOLD ON IT by ShiftyEyedDog2	Jun 24th, 2008 10:06:26 PM
this just further cements my anticipation. I liked Disturbia quite a bit, and despite the (unfounded) Shia-hating trend, this guys got the skills. I like him.
Looks like a more action-packed "NICK OF TIME" by ShiftyEyedDog2	Jun 24th, 2008 10:07:15 PM

I wanted to make a movie that featured a Neutrino Detector as a backdrop. I wonder how sci-fi they'll go with this? It could end up being another "The Forgotten"...
I was gonna see this anyway by That 70s Venom	Jun 24th, 2008 10:17:41 PM
before I even read this because it looked interesting. Besides, unlike a lot of douchebags on here who hate Shia because their jealous of him, I actually appreciate his talent. I'll be there on opening day for this one with my popcorn and pepsi.

Sorry that I gave away your secret to seeing this shitty movie without paying for it.
although Thornton, Chiklis, and Dawson are among my favorites... by br1947	Jun 24th, 2008 10:30:15 PM
There is no way I'm ever watching anything connected to Shia again. Between Transformers & Indy, he has fucked up more in his short career than most people do in a lifetime.
I guess Harry pays better than Nick by AlwaysThere	Jun 24th, 2008 10:31:30 PM
Interesting.
Let me ask this... by BizarroJerry	Jun 24th, 2008 10:38:29 PM
Are Rosario Dawson's breasts somehow key to the plot of the film?
Disturbia pretty tepid by Bass Ackwards	Jun 24th, 2008 10:38:41 PM
Shia fans are always quick to point to this "under-rated" gem, its not really under-rated, its rated just right, as a competently well made mediocre film. That said this film looks pretty kick ass.
Umm this loks horrible by spectrebeeyatch	Jun 24th, 2008 10:43:52 PM
I think the plot is very obvious. That it's some AI skynet thingy playing with them. This looks generic and dumb to me. Anything Shia in usually sucks ass so I believe this will be the same.
BEAVERS AND DUCKS! by batzilla	Jun 24th, 2008 10:44:33 PM
Thats what I think of every time I see Billy Bob. BTW, this is yet another "Look at how cool we are" type flicks. You know, one of those films that thinks it is cleaver but in reality it... sucks. Fuck this shit. BRING ON THE DARK KNIGHT!
What I can't stand though by JimBobCooter	Jun 24th, 2008 10:45:04 PM
is the OMNIPOTENT bad guy who is a mega-hacker who can control everything from traffic lights to the jumbo-tron to the crane all at the same time from his/her laptop... and they usually trigger things to happen right when the main character is looking in that direction... and they always has great cell phone reception and yada yada yada. Takes me out of it.
SAw the trailer looks quite cool - even the haters will go by Yeti	Jun 24th, 2008 10:45:59 PM
So they can piss, whine, bitch and moan about Shia (who probably gets a kick about reading about himself on here as __________) guesses?
If you can control all that... by JimBobCooter	Jun 24th, 2008 10:47:45 PM
...why have some idiots rob an armored car? Seriously, is the million dollar cost really worth it? Can you not use your omnipotent powers to just get it yourself? Can you not watch a thriller AND think?

Eagle Eye? Like the football formation? Horrible title. by depalma25	Jun 24th, 2008 10:50:23 PM
I know, I know, he's being watched like an eagle, blah blah. Why all the Shia hating by the way. He's one of the few, young, popular actors who doesn't seem pulled out of a Abercrombie and Fitch ad. The dude can actually act. Disturbia had its moments, but was not only by-the-numbers (especially the last act), but a total Fright Night Rip-off. Anyway, I'll end up Netflixing Eagle Eye. Maybe a matinee.
Gushing reviews not cutting it with the suits so you've resorted by F-1000	Jun 24th, 2008 10:50:45 PM
Apparently the powers that be (Read: Those who line the pockets of those involved with and/or write for this site.) were unsatisfied with AICN handing out gushing positive reviews of 99.9% of the big studio movies out there. (which is pretty much all AICN reviews anymore btw, studio films. Film a day doesn't count) It seems as though AICN has been commanded by their studio exec overlords to resort to plugging a movie that none of the staff or freelance writers have even seen!! They must really be desperate to get asses into seats for this movie. Really? I know I'll go see this movie? The power of AICN compels me? Mr Beaks resorting to a cheap marketing ploy usually reserved for selling preteens dating board games and sugary cereal? Never before have this site's true motives been more transparent. I suppose it had to be Mr Beaks because he was one few left of this site with a modicum of cred. Not anymore so it seems though, not with me at least. P.S. - The writer doesn't even sound like Mr. Beaks, I would be surprised if he actually wrote it. Or maybe they got him good and drunk and then dictated the movie to him. PPPPSSSSSS - The first act of the movie and some change? From some dude's friend? REALLY? I mean, REALLY? So lame, what is next, cousin's boyfriend's sister's mom? Maybe you're saving that one for Sex in the City 2?
Resorted to shameless plugs for a movie you haven't seen by F-1000	Jun 24th, 2008 10:51:54 PM
The title should've said.
Great point F-1000 by AlwaysThere	Jun 24th, 2008 10:53:37 PM
That line about the faux-friend seeing the first act and change is clearly plant like.
Why the Shia hate? by JimBobCooter	Jun 24th, 2008 10:56:58 PM
For one, he is over-saturated. Secondly, he is vanilla and has absolutely NO EDGE to him. When I think of the heir to the Indiana Jones franchise... I think of River Phoenix's sequence in Last Crusade. THAT was a kid who filled the screen. Shia is an Average Joe. Which he does well. But he's not someone I look up to or believe that could save the world. And people say he can really act... but has he really played a role that isn't Shia with a different hair style? Has he even attempted to challenge himself?
And by "Average Joe" by JimBobCooter	Jun 24th, 2008 10:59:31 PM
I mean BORING. I know he's supposed to be playing Average Joes.
only irritating thing.. by Staldo	Jun 24th, 2008 11:04:13 PM
The irritating thing about Shia is that he's being shoved down our throats as the next Michael J. Fox, when we all know his "rise from obscurity" is nowhere near as organic or charming. There will be no stories, like Fox's of simultaneously filming a sitcom while shooting some crazy sci-fi comedy during the night from Shia, . Just "I remember when a soft-headed Spielberg an Hollywood In General spontaneously decided I was America's darling and work started flying at me stupid crazy." Only, with a lot more "shits" and "fucks" thrown in there because, you know, that's just how Shia rolls. If he was just some random, jewey-looking young actor instead of being presented as the dramatic equivalent of a boy-band, I might be interested in Eagle Eye. It looked compelling.
JimBobCooter... by depalma25	Jun 24th, 2008 11:05:28 PM
The dude's only 21 years old. He has his whole life to challenge himself in better roles. If Bruckheimer offered me millions of dollars at 21 years old to be in a giant, summer blockbuster, I'd damn well take it. And who wouldn't want to be in an Indiana Jones movie? I'd rather have an "average joe" protagonist. As far as "edge" goes. I think he has it, but needs meatier roles. We'll see.
movie looks alright... by RKO2285	Jun 24th, 2008 11:13:19 PM
but y does the article say I'm going to see it? lol that being said Idk if I will or not... and I'm a fan of shia.. I don't get the hate is it because he's everywhere?

A Guide To Recognizing Your Saints... by JediRob	Jun 24th, 2008 11:32:19 PM
...would be a much more suitable example of him having some credibility. And how can you call being in Transformers and Indy fucking up his career? Those are both ginormous movies that a ton of people loved.
Goddamnit, why Rosario? by caruso_stalker217	Jun 24th, 2008 11:36:47 PM
I like the Beef and the supporting cast sounds solid and I'm all for "wrong man" movies, but I fucking hate Rosario Dawson. Guess I'll have to catch it on DVD or whatever futuristic format is out by that time that I won't be able to afford.
Shia secretly played Anakin and ruined Star Wars too by Bob of the Shire	Jun 24th, 2008 11:37:13 PM

At 21 I think he's doing pretty good. by JediRob	Jun 25th, 2008 12:08:32 AM
That's a pretty solid run for such a young age. If he stays away from a DUI he may just make it.
Eagle Eye is only worth it by Abhimanyu	Jun 25th, 2008 12:23:29 AM

"Wrongly brushed ofF?" OH THE COMEDY by reflecto	Jun 25th, 2008 12:24:38 AM
Disturbia promised at least a fun time at the movies and maybe a breakout role for Shia but gave us anything but. There is no real suspense, no real action, no real tension. It was an afterschool special. EXTREMELY disappointing. Shia became a new star thanks to Transformers, his own charisma, and a huge marketing machine, not Disturbia.

that's blasphemy by AntoniusBloc	Jun 25th, 2008 12:51:14 AM
Well, Shia's name should not even be mentioned in the same sentence as Marty McFly. Shia is not even close to being in the same league as the most convincing little-to -averge size leading man. Despite his stature, Fox could even convince us he was 'tough'. Shia has no such presence on screen, and as stated above earlier, no edge.

What's wrong with Shia? by u.k. star	Jun 25th, 2008 05:25:22 AM
Seriously, i don't get it. Other than the standard, and passe, a group of people have ot "hate" evry up and coming successful young actor thing I don't know what people dislike. He's by no means a bad actor, he's not even an average one, he's pretty decent, and showss enough flashes to suggest he may be very good, given the material etc.
Disturbia was fun. by beastie	Jun 25th, 2008 06:38:05 AM
Almost more fun than it had any right to be. It was, by no means, a good movie. But I enjoyed the hell out of it. And I kinda like Shia. He certainly wasn't the problem with Indy. In fact his stuff was quite good.

Shia LaBeouf is being hugely underrated right now... by Ray Gamma	Jun 25th, 2008 07:18:55 AM
Shia LaBeouf is constantly getting slated on here by the slobbering frenzied envious hollywood wanna-boys. But the simple fact is, he's getting into these movies because he's a fucking great actor. Not just for his age. So live with it, you miserable cunts. Twenty years from now he'll be considered one of the greatest actors in the world - there are hardly any actors in the world who were as natural and quirky on the screen at only 22 years old.
Got to agree with Ray Gamma by Dancing Girl	Jun 25th, 2008 07:34:07 AM
Doesn't anyone remember Even Stevens? He was great in that and he's just got better.
"DISTURBIA as a teen-skewing ripoff of by Samuel Fulmer	Jun 25th, 2008 07:41:28 AM
Hitchcock's REAR WINDOW." What's wrong with that description? I'm sure if you had D.J. "Taking Lives" Caruso hooked up to one of those Moment of Truth lie detectors we'd find out that he thinks the same thing.

Disturbia wasn't bad by Samuel Fulmer	Jun 25th, 2008 07:43:19 AM
But it wasn't good either. The only way it will be remembered as anything other than the teen Rear Window is if Shia wins an Oscar sometime in the future. Kind of like Tom Hanks with He Knows You're Alone (except Hanks was in that movie for about 10 seconds).

I like the kid but hate the media hype by drewlicious	Jun 25th, 2008 01:10:17 PM
The other week Entetainment Weekly had a whole story about the new "A List" and who was on it. Most of the list was made of up people who just had a hit or two in the last year. Right now I just see Shia Lebouf as a very good young actor, compare him to many other actors his age you'll see the difference, who is being turned into a pop culture product manufactured by the media as opposed to letting the audience decide if he gets to achieve his status. Boy seems to like his cigarettes though. Seriously, chain-smoker is an understatement.
Thank God for Beef by Fishermansdaughter	Jun 25th, 2008 01:19:36 PM
After surviving his formative years in Echo Park, CA (translation GHETTO) to mostly absent parents, self motivated to come up through the grueling kiddie ranks, going on to STAR in TWO major films in the span of one year and being lauded as the Heir Apparent to Tom Hanks by the likes of Mr. S. at the tender age of 21, I for one hope Shia isn't crying himself to sleep at night over the fact that a few no name, bitter, losers have nothing better to do than post e-mails from their mom's basement on how they think he's crap. Based on what? Who deigned ya'll the arbiters of acting acumen? Git'em Shia. Ignore the haters, keep it real and laugh all the way to wherever you want to go.

I'll have you know I live in my mother's attic, not her basement. It's over the garage, you know just like the Fonz.

Big F*cking crane through the window by Abominable Snowcone	Jun 25th, 2008 01:32:18 PM
Saw that trailer and thought to myself, "Even though Spidey 3 was not great, not enough time has passed for another film to rip off it's runaway-crane-through-the-offi ce-windows sequence."

The science of AICN...: by Ray Gamma	Jun 25th, 2008 03:10:38 PM
Basically, this is how it works: The vast majority of people happily enjoy movies like 'Kingdom of the Crystal Skull' and then happily get on with their lives. However, a small noxious dribble of the population are dreamers who want to get into movies and they're gonna do it, you know, as soon as college is over and they've saved up enough cash man, anyway they hear about these movies long before the movie is screened, and decide to themselves "this is going to suck and I better get home from my shelf-stacking job super fucking quick so that I can power up dad's computer and log onto Aint It Cool News and tell those guys just how fucking shit this movie that I haven't seen is gonna be." Then they get home and log on, only to be confronted with the news that the profoundly talented Shia LaBoeuf is going to be one of the stars of said movie. This news creates a kind of 'meltdown cascade' in the temporal lobes of the pale undersexed wanna-boy, who can no longer contain his fury. What follows is an uninhibited tirade of volcanic proportions as the blubbery Mac-potato jiggles his pasty white manboobs up and down while typing his hatred out like a river of magma, and as the final keystrokes are punched into the keyboard like a nail-gun the bitter never-ran starts to cry as he jizzes his final jealous insults onto the AICN message board like an impotent fountain of raging futility.

I'll see it. I really don't get the Shia hate at all. Kid's gonna only get bigger.
yes by Ray Gamma	Jun 25th, 2008 04:08:30 PM
yes because the Matrix was totally original.

That's what I'm talkin' 'bout. Infinitely easier for some to hurl vitriol (a bit like chimps thrown shite from their cages) at success than get off the collective fat arse and DO SOMETHING. Shia's being given these opportunities because he has done and continues to do the work. If the Powers That Be were just going around giving careers away - we'd all be stars.

What's this about Shia?

the computers have come alive and need the people to do something for them so they can survive. Done.
That trailer was awesome by Series7	Jun 26th, 2008 12:32:09 AM
Just saw in on the Tele. I've been wondering if DJ was ever going to make another good movie after The Salton Sea which I really liked. But that fucking 2 For the Money movie blew and Rear Window 2? But this looks pretty sweet. Fucking september sucks for movies anyway, it would be cool if they released something good.

Michelle Monoghan also looks hot with her hair like that.
