Has anybody heard anything about the Pursuit of Happyness, Will Smith's new movie? The trailers are breaking my heart. It would o0nly be more broken if the movie turned out to suck.

A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.
I can see how there can be three, but fear they wouldn't be able sell the forever and ever love aspect without more. Funnily enough, it became clear on second viewing that they realized the same thing about the poker game, and broke it up with the unnecessary fight and poisoning scenes.
Sorry for not seeing the latest Bruckheimer/Scott collaboration when I could have watched Bond twice.
Those trailers make me want to stab.
It's possible I just don't like having my heart warmed. At least not when I can see it coming.
bon, I don't think they sold it with five, so I don't feel they could have sold it much worse with three. Not sure if writing could have saved it, or just chemistry.
I think I want to go, Sean. I will hate life if it sucks because it is the first trailer in a long time that made me think that.

Heh. Your opinion on the trailers was the one I wanted most. I think I have a hard time telling when I am being shamelessly manipulated, and I can usually count on you to cut through that sort of thing for me.
I'm still interested in checking it out, though.
E's seeing it on Monday, Sean, so I can report back. I hate the title, but otherwise have no preformed opinions of it.
ita, yes on CR being all tell and no show on Vesper's supposed smarts. That was very annoying.

It seemed nice enough, if too uplifting for my blood. But having seen the trailer I got the distinct impression that seeing the longer film would now be redundant.
I am surprised at myself, considering my very favorite show in the world featured a kid's finger getting broken with a loud pop last week. But it is the holiday season and I'm close to the earth. I guess I can't be about murder and mayhem all the time. Most, maybe, but not all.
They were all on Oprah the other day (Will and Jayden Smith, the real guy, his real son, etc.), and I was pissed off at how every single clip made me mist up. And they showed a ton of them, and many twice. I have no need to see the movie now. All the emotional manipulation, none of the movie theater experience!
