Didn't know anything about this one. Looks fun, with the exception of Julianne Moore hamming it up. The creatures and that 4-armed Hindi God look super cool. Also found out it was directed by Sergey Bodrov who directed Mongol a few years ago. Mongol was badass.

I enjoy the books that the film is from, can't wait to see it.

Why So Blu?

I've heard of the series and I've heard that it's a dark one, so I may give the first book a try.

Wolf359

First thing I thought of was the Orson Scott Card book Seventh Son, also a fantasy series.

Sonic

Looks awesome!

islandclaws

Creatures look cool, story is about as generic and overused as they come.

miller_time22

Iron Maiden soundtrack?

fumanstan

I guess i'm the odd man out, when I saw this trailer before Pacific Rim I thought it looked laughably bad.

Solid Snake

Yeah, me too. Did think the Hindi monster looked neat though.

fumanstan

Yeah, that was the only thing that I thought looked neat.

big e

You're not alone, I thought it looked like every other generic fantasy movie out there.

RocShemp

Looks like a cross between Solomon Kane and Beowulf, starring the Dude! Awesome!

Jon2

Are you sure you're not confusing it with Pacific Rim?

Talk about laughably bad.

fumanstan

No, because Pacific Rim was awesome.

bluetoast

Yeah this looked really bad to me from the trailer before Pacific Rim, but who knows.

Why So Blu?

The creature design work looks awesome. Djimon Honsou as Radu looks legit as well as that tall ass bald dude who looks like a skeleton corpse. The 4 armed Hindi creature pretty much sealed the deal for me. And Jeff Bridges. Okay, so Julianne Moore being old and hot and reuniting with Jeff Bridges peaked my interest too. Bite me.

Why So Blu?

Shit, so they delayed this until February of 2015.

TomOpus

2015? Are they reshooting the entire thing?

OldBoy

Why So Blu?

Who knows. I think that whole bullshit between Legendary leaving WB for Universal fucked everything up.

According to IMDB the new release date February 6th, 2015.

Solid Snake

Jesus. I thought this thing already came out before.

RocShemp

So did I. I forgot that it had been pushed back 'til next year.

lwhy?

I really like the books this is based on. It's a shame that it looks like they went in a completely different direction from the books. The apprentice in the book is only 12 and they cast Ben Barnes a 30 something in that role. If they had done this right, this could have been a harry potter like series if popular enough....

Wolf359

So this is finally going to open. Wonder which will bomb harder, this or Jupiter Ascending?
