    Saw it earlier today, it looks even better than I hoped it would. Trailer is fucking amazing, I can’t wait to see it.

    Agree, when I first heard about it I wasn't sure, but that trailer hooked me.

    Split I thought was decent (because of MacCavoy) but Unbreakable was my favourite Shyamalan movie of all. I hope he can recreate that pin drop vise-grip tension it had. Some people hated it but I’m so far from that.

    Welcome back Nicolas Cage. This looks absolutely demented:

    Yea this is my most anticipated movie out of SDCC this year. Looks amazing. The first two were some of M Night Shaymalans best work.

    He has a gift for the twist, obviously. But the fact that the twist of Split was that it was connected to Unbreakable is so freaking cool.

    It was his first good twist in some time. The first ever origin story that focused alone on a villain, who will collide with his shy, original hero. This new film seems pay homage to superheroes AND thumb the nose at them as well. Starring two prominent Marvel movie heroes as the villains.

    Since these three characters were supposed to be in the original Unbreakable script, my guess is Shyamalan is done with phoning it in. There’s quite a few movies I am looking forward to this coming year, this might even top them all.

    That looks about a hundred times better than the “Mortal Engines” trailer does.

    I hadn't heard they got the official "go". Awesome news, one of the best series ever.

    I'm still a little skeptical though. We've been hearing this about an adaptation of Roger Zelazny's "Chronicles Of Amber" for more than a decade and nothing has actually panned out.

    And it has a 97% on RT, saying its Cage's best performance ever.

    All the reviews say it’s a completely original movie. It comes out mid September, can’t wait.

    I'm surprised Crown didn't post this as I know he's an Argento fan. The trailer for the Suspiria remake dropped recently



    I'm a huge fan of the original and when I heard about the remake I was pretty skeptical. After watching the trailer.......I'm intrigued.

    The longer runtime (about 2 and a half hours compared to the original's hour and a half) means a movie that is likely very different in tone and style. The original was a very stylistic dreamlike slasher focused on visuals rather than concrete story. This seems like they are going to delve a lot more into backstory, characters, motivations, etc. I'm interested to see how it all pans out.

    Suspiria is my favourite horror film. I never wanted it to be remade, but I knew it would be.

    This looks about as good as it could be made. I’m glad they’re simply not filming the original again, because it would be a complete failure.
