Realism Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I dunno, I'm pretty un-psyched, earl. I really wish they would stop making books I loved as a kid into movies to make a buck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earl broclo ESQ Posted October 12, 2009 Author Share Posted October 12, 2009 Realism --if they do a good job of making them into movies, I'm happy with that. The only two I'm really psyched on is this and "Where the Wild Things Are." It will give the book a rebirth with parents who read with their kids, and that's a good thing. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, I see what you're saying, I mean I know I plan on reading these books to my kids whenever the little Realisms come along. I just think most of the power these books have is in the fact that, well, they're books. The stories and illustrations are great, and a little imagination does the rest (yes I'm aware that sounds homo, fuck off everyone). They don't need to be turned into visual clusterfucks with a bunch of added content for "dramatic value" (which happens far too often). Kids should be raised on these books, not primarily their film adaptations, which is gonna be used as an easy way out by way too many parents. I dunno I'm clearly being bitter/UMAD about this, but I think these are some sleeping dogs that should just be left to lie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

earl broclo ESQ Posted October 12, 2009 Author Share Posted October 12, 2009 Yeah. I hear him as well. I'm just a selfish bastard and I'm psyched I'll be able to go see these. Screw the future it's doomed anyways. Kids lose their imagination due to bigger powers at be. Us older folks who grew up on these books can enjoy the movies, and all the little PS4 babies can suck a dick. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IOU Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Times have changed and so have the mediums. One day I'm sure people will be like.. Remember when they used to show movies a on screen.. Now it's just projected into our HD HUD with 10.1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IOU Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 I dig the time I've grown up in. I can appreciate all the different forms of entertainment we got. But I think the way I grew up was much cooler.. You know being outside as much as you possibly could. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShortFuse Posted October 12, 2009 Share Posted October 12, 2009 Yeah. I hear him as well. I'm just a selfish bastard and I'm psyched I'll be able to go see these. Screw the future it's doomed anyways. Kids lose their imagination due to bigger powers at be. Us older folks who grew up on these books can enjoy the movies, and all the little PS4 babies can suck a dick. True. Love a good video game but it sucks because its taken so much away from imagination. I caught this preview on another site a while back but didnt realize it was after a kids book, at leats one that I was never read. Either way it looked like a pretty good movie. I always like to see these films not only just for the story but the overall awesome work that is put into them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrPiddlesworth Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 I'm excited for it. Not because I wanna see the book turn into a movie but because I saw the preview and the animation style is completely different than anything I've seen in a big movie. I will go pay to see it.

DETO Posted November 27, 2009 Share Posted November 27, 2009 i just got back from watching this, and it was (pardon the pun,) fantastic. if you are at all a fan of Wes Anderson, you will really cussing love this film. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KILZ FILLZ Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 I saw it last night and it was great I think I'm gonna buy it when it comes out seems like it would be THE SHIT on shrooms the theatre was full of 20-30s thought there would be mad kids but nope definately worth paying to see Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DETO Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 that's the way it was when i went, they were only about 15 people in the theater and i was the youngest person in there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Harvey Wallbanger Posted November 28, 2009 Share Posted November 28, 2009 Fucking great movie. There were a bunch of little kids when I went, but I'm pretty sure none of them enjoyed it nearly as much as I did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spaceman Spiff Posted November 29, 2009 Share Posted November 29, 2009 I would go see this if it weren't for George Clooney. I hate it when movie actors try voice acting. Except for Jason Lee. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
