    Robocop looks ****, who takes an 18 film, and makes it a pg13. And that first person camera view, looks awful.

    Godzilla, will no doubt watch this, as enjoyed the 1998 film. Just hope its not a cheaply made film, the cast list itself doesn't fill me with much confidence though.

    Edge of Tomorrow looks pretty good though, I like Emily Blunt so will definitely watch that.

    These I cannot wait to see:

    The Lego Movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fZ_JOBCLF-I

    Robocop look ****? It is finally realistic, they used the US Air Force requirements demanded upon Boston Dynamics' own robotics program to determine how the EDs and Robo would move. But the last Godzilla wasn't Godzilla... It was a giant lizard.

    Transcendence does look awesome though.


    * A PG-13 today was an 18 in the 1980's, ethics have changed ;-)

    I'll agree to disagree gentlemen, don't want a war <laugh>

    But the one and only thing that annoys me with the Godzilla trailer is the music used for the HALO dive, Godzilla is not worthy of it. It is the Monolith's music score from 2001: A Space Oddessy, until Hollywood somehow came up with something more bad ass it should have been resigned to the 'Never dare to use until something special is imagined' pile. But that is just me being defensive for the Monolith, possibly the most bad ass realistic antagonist of all time and despite being realistic it is probably second only to the idea God. Even Dr Manhattan himself could be destroyed by it, Superman wouldn't even last a nanosecond and it is something that would see the Devil itself as merely a nuisance and probably not worth attention.

    Saying that, Godzilla is a day one ticket buy for me!!!!!!! <laugh>

    Not sure the Mrs will go for any of these, maybe "Edge of Tomorrow". Robocop looks the most "going through the CGI motions for the sake of it" to me, although I'd certainly watch them all because I love CGI when done well even if the film itself is crap (well, up to a point).

    I thought the trailers were rather short. You normally don't need to bother watching the actual movie after seeing most trailers these days!

    That's why I like the Godzilla trailer, doesn't give the story away but still makes you want to see it. They were all like that once upon a time.
