I actually think this looks great

Looks fun. The Rock is always good value and Karen Gillan.

Paid £1.02 for travel insurance (Going nowhere) just to get the 2for1 Meercat Movies deal for a year. Not that I'll ever go the cinema and just continue to download everything

Peter Rabbit trailer is on YouTube. .... CGI rabbit .... Voiced by.... James Corden. Trying to make something wonderful and charming modern and gooseberry fool.

To be fair it seems a fair reflection of books. Remember when Peter Rabbit threw a massive party and trashed a dude's house? Classic Peter Rabbit

A dude they've made about 40 years younger than he was in the books.

I've just watched the trailer. Dear strawberry floating god, who thought that was a good idea? Anyone who likes Peter Rabbit will be horrified by it, anyone who doesn't wouldn't be interested in it in the slightest. The only possible conclusion, it's some kind of tax dodge.

You could have bought these codes from eBay for 99p saving you 3p

I jest, but eBay for codes is worth keeping an eye out. Last year, I bought a block of 10 Odeon Codes for 10 separate films for £30, £3 a film! I seen Star Wars: Rogue One at midnight last year in Manchester Printworks for £3, well that was probably my highlight.

When they first started doing it you could sign up with a random code saying you'd bought Travel Insurance through them because they had no system to check. I'm assuming they do now though...

Alex Garland's (Ex Machina) next movie

Pacific Rim 2 trailer

[Tafdolphin]

Welp that's my fears realised. Looks like a mashup of Power Rangers and a Saturday morning cartoon. The shots are messy, the colour palette is garish and they look to have gone down the clichéd sequel route of 'more is more.'. Basically, exactly what a Pacific Rim from one of the Fast & Furious guys was always going to be.

The first was nonsense, but it was well directed, well imagined nonsense. This looks like Transformers.

Strong pass.

Yeah My thoughts too. Shame. I enjoyed the first to a point.

So... thoughts on the latest (and last?) Justice League trailer?

[Hexx]

In no particularly order

The death of Superman removing hope etc from the world has not been earnt in the last two films

The CGI fest doesn't even look great now, it's going to age terribly.

Aquaman is Texan now?

[Skippy]

A truly, truly dreadful trailer. No hope whatsoever for Justice League, Joss Whedon's inclusion will just make the tone even more wildly incoherent than if Snyder was still running the show

Alex Garland's (Ex Machina) next movie

Enjoyed Ex Machina a lot so this'll be on my interest list anyway, but that trailer is good, too.

On slightly related tangent: Was re-watching some of the Enslaved cutscenes the other day - Alex Garland's spare, understated, no-bullshit dialogue and the naturalistic motion capture still puts it above most video game story-ing in my eyes.

That's me sold.

Calm it with the CGI

[Godzilla]

Still excited for Justice League. The amount of CGI in that final battle is ridiculous. So surprised they haven't shown the return we all know is coming, but the next trailer or tv spot will no doubt include that and more.

I'd like more Batman being Batman but lots of Wonder Woman is always good.

Beyonce?

Will be interesting to see what the soundtrack’s like if they’re keeping the songs in... Can Glover sing?

Unless they add other songs, he'll only need to sing 'Can You Feel The Love Tonight' as all the others would be sung by the actor playing Young Simba.
