Hey folks, Harry here...
You know... As I lay here in my hospital bed, I find myself marveling at motion. Human motion. The ability to just effortlessly move. Through my time here I've thought a lot about what makes one move. We don't tend to consciously and laboriously THINK every movement through. We tend to think, I want to get a glass of water, but not the various motions to go from sitting to getting that water and returning. Right now, I'm having to re-learn motion, how to walk. As I spend time on those parallel bars walking back and forth I'm trying to talk about other things as I do it. Trying to make the movement not require excruciating concentration...
What does this have to do with SUCKERPUNCH... well, I watch the movement of these characters, the camera and try to imagine being able to do any of that - and I'm in awe. Even more so - I think a lot about the future here. The films I get to walk into instead of rolling into - and watching the below trailer - I try to imagine Zack Snyder's SUPERMAN... I know Chris Nolan is involved, but I'm hoping that truly - Zack is 100% in charge. I want to see a dynamic SUPERMAN film that blows me away totally. I want to see a SUPERMAN that's dealing with science-fiction tech that blows our minds away by how cool it looks. A great action packed SUPERMAN film that hopefully is as intelligent as it is mind-blowing. That's the promise that a Nolan / Snyder team up inspires for me.
As for SUCKERPUNCH... it'll probably be one of the first films I see once I'm out of here. That and RANGO - and I can not wait. I don't feel like I've missed a terrible lot in the past few weeks. But man... look at this. It's going to be amazing to watch...
Nordling here.
Big fan of the Silversun Pickups, whose "Panic Switch" sets the tone for this truly kickass trailer. At this point, you're either going to enjoy the ride that Zack Snyder has prepared for us or you won't. As for myself, I think SUCKER PUNCH is going to make me grin from ear to ear throughout the whole thing. I think Snyder knows what works in cinema and his films create a visceral reality that just satisfies the inner geek in all of us. At least that's how it is for me.
