Re: Sorcerer's Apprentice
I hadn't heard of this until now, looks like decent family fare. I noticed that they managed to squeak the water-carrying brooms in there -- but blink and you'll miss it.

Out of curiosity, why is the description spoilerized? Is someone going to open up a thread dedicated to a specific movie but insist upon not knowing ANYTHING about it?

Re: Sorcerer's Apprentice
Looks generic and cliched at best... but Nic Cage playing diabolical is intriguing.

What is this exactly? Why not call it Mediocrity: The Motion Picture. I love how they put Jon Turteltaub's name like anyone knows who this hack is. Hey Jon, you're no Spielberg or even a Roland Emmerich.

Wow, I was totally diggin' that trailer until Nick Cage was revealed. To be honest it still looks very cool.
Like a hardcore Harry Potter.

I've enjoyed a lot of Cage's films, but I agree with Giantrobo. As soon as I popped up my interest went down. He just doesn't seem like a good fit for this. It's as if it's obvious he's involved because of producers and directors. I'd rather he do a National Treasure 3 - assuming it's more along the lines of 1 than 2; not that 2 was bad, but just not as good as 1.

Re: Sorcerer's Apprentice
Just saw this trailer and the special effects were pretty impressive. I'll see this movie for that alone...and of course Jay Baruchel’s role!

Re: Sorcerer's Apprentice
Nicolas Cage is on a role, I was already planning on seeing his new flick, Kick-Ass..good to see he's still got it after all these years in the business! He is one of those actors you can always count on.

My wife and I were in New York last summer for four days, and we saw some of SA being filmed at night. A sequence at the fountain at Bowling Green park by the old U.S. Customs House. Second unit stuff it looked like, with Jay Baruchel and a girl I didn't recognize who had long dark hair and was costumed in a medieval gown.
We watched them for maybe an hour while they did two or three takes. I shot some pics and video of their activity, then we walked down to the ferry station to take the ferry back to Staten Island.

^^This girl with long dark hair and a medieval gown?? That is Monica Bellucci, who I might add is so gorgeous! She is Italian and did a lot of television and foreign projects...can't wait to see her in this though!

That's her, and that's where we saw them shooting.

Ah fernsita, is there any bad movie you don't like or aren't interested in seeing? Or are you just toying with us?
