Ne0 Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 Uncharted Casts Spider-Man’s Tom Holland as Young Nathan Drake http://screenrant.com/uncharted-movie-tom-holland-young-nathan-drake/ According to Deadline, the Uncharted movie will take heavy inspiration from the third installment in the original video game series, Uncharted 3: Drake’s Deception Good choice, it was literally a movie, hardly a video game, they can even show the cut scenes in sequence and it'll still pass as movie [emoji14] Sent from my Moto G (4) using Tapatalk Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He does have that "lovable smart a*s" thing going on. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gautam Posted May 22, 2017 Report Share Posted May 22, 2017 (edited) UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, Malaysia, Kenya, Gulf, Afghanistan, etc. What i'm trying to say is that even though Dangal was made in India for an Indian audience, it still offers a much more personal experience for Punjabis, especially Punjabi immigrants and foreign-born Punjabis. Dangal gives them an opportunity to reconnect with their home country. I don't have a problem with Dangal being screened in China. What matters to me is if the audience could genuinely appreciate Dangal. The Chinese BO numbers are an affront to a movie like Dangal. The movie is set in Haryana and all the main characters are Haryanvi. Not all north Indians are Punjabis. I live in Canada and have lots of Punjabi and non-Punjabi Indian friends. Your conclusion that it offers a more personal experience for Punjabi immigrants is verifiably nonsense. Dangal is a very well made sports movie and it has broad appeal. That is why it has been a huge hit in India and abroad. Dangal's China BO numbers are not an affront, but indicative of its broad appeal. The fact that you think so shows how muddled your understanding of the movie itself is. We Indians need to comprehend that: 1) Critical acclaim and BO performance are entirely separate metrics 2) Universally appealing Indian movies won't necessarily receive a warm reception outside India Again, I think you're very confused about Indian movies and their appeal as indicated by the self-contradictory sentence above.

STICK3Rboy Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 Zack Snyder Steps Down From 'Justice League' to Deal With Family Tragedy The filmmaker's daughter died by suicide in March, prompting him to take a break from work and hire Joss Whedon to finish the Warner Bros. superhero pic: "I’ve decided to take a step back from the movie to be with my family, be with my kids, who really need me." That's some really sad news about his daughter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dangal is a very well made sports movie and it has broad appeal. That is why it has been a huge hit in India and abroad. I totally agree that Dangal is a well made sports biopic. But let me elaborate a bit more. The movie is a biopic about a Jat wrestler set in a small Indian village in Haryana (where all the main characters are Haryanvi). The movie itself isn't broadly appealing until the second half. Dangal's China BO numbers are not an affront, but indicative of its broad appeal. The fact that you think so shows how muddled your understanding of the movie itself is. Again the movie is a biopic about a Jat wrestler set in a small village in Haryana. Reviews of the movie will immediately and consistently identify if it is broadly appealing. Successful BO numbers can backup those reviews. But successful BO figures should never be used decide if a movie is broad in its appeal. Also, if you factor in that it was only some few years ago since Hollywood has been much more successful at penetrating the Chinese market then you'll realise that those BO numbers for Dangal (which is a Bollywood movie) don't add up. Again, I think you're very confused about Indian movies and their appeal as indicated by the self-contradictory sentence above. If you dig deeper using venn diagrams and set theory, then you'll understand that certain markets make for a very strong exception. You can't dump every Indian movie onto a Chinese audience and hope for it to succeed. Edited May 23, 2017 by pixeljunkie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just like Jungle Book is only appealing to zoo animals and Indian orphans. Again the movie is a biopic about a Jat wrestler set in a small village in Haryana. Reviews of the movie will immediately and consistently identify if it is broadly appealing. Successful BO numbers can backup those reviews.

As long as we're speaking the same language, successful BO numbers do correspond to broad appeal. Yes, a huge marketing budget can lead to a big opening, but if the movie is not appealing the numbers will drop. What does not correspond to successful BO numbers is in fact critical acclaim. Movies that review well are not guaranteed to succeed because they may not appeal to a broad audience. Both good and bad movies (critically speaking) can have broad appeal. As much as Transformers movies might suck, they make a sh*t ton of money because they have BROAD APPEAL. If you dig deeper using venn diagrams and set theory, then you'll understand that certain markets make for a very strong exception. You can't dump every Indian movie onto a Chinese audience and hope for it to succeed. I used astrology and sudoku and understood that you're still a bit confused about how and why movies make money 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as Transformers movies might suck, they make a sh*t ton of money because they have BROAD APPEAL. But thank you for bringing this up. A foreign audience will embrace Animation and Science fiction genres much much more easily unlike differences in ethnicities and language.

As much as Transformers movies might suck, they make a sh*t ton of money because they have BROAD APPEAL. And hence the reason for the success of the Transformers franchise. This franchise is a BO juggernaut because it mostly attracts a younger crowd despite the negative reviews. The movies use simple scripts and is targeted towards a younger audience. The Transformer movies are first-and-foremost popcorn flicks meant for mass consumption regardless of ethnicities. Dangal on the other hand is not a popcorn flick despite its superb box-office performance. Edited May 23, 2017 by pixeljunkie Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) I like the decision to cast Tom Holland as Nathan Drake, I definitely see it working. It's better than the previously rumored names (Mark Wahlberg, Bradley Cooper). Also, Universal seems to be throwing a lot of money into the Monsters Universe project. Some really big names there. Hope it works out. I wish it was more of a low budget / practical effects thing than a CGI-fest though. Something closer to the Penny Dreadful series instead of the LXG movie. I bet none of these movies will actually be scary. Edited May 23, 2017 by Tyler Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tyler Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 (edited) ^^ Isn't he a bit too baby faced ? Bradley cooper is too old , he might suit the role of SAM though Hollywood is good at transforming actors into characters and they have made it explicitly clear that he's playing a "young Nathan Drake". It's a great decision as it doesn't interfere with the continuity of the games. Edited May 23, 2017 by Tyler 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixeljunkie Posted May 23, 2017 Report Share Posted May 23, 2017 But then who'll play Nathan Drake? My first pick would be a leaner Chris Pratt. Second place goes to Scott Eastwood. Since they both possess facial features, like the deep set eyes and jawline, similar to Tom Holland. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
