OK, so there are some movies that shouldnt be made, we all agree that much? I would probably classify anything based solely on a video game - Tomb Raider (I and II), Resident Evil (I and II) … and coming to cinemas next year, Alien vs. Predator. There’s a featurette online about it.
Now a far more noteworthy film is Shrek II, and I was very happy when I found the trailer for it online!
For fans of Marvel comic book adaptions, for instance Larry if he’s reading, there is a new trailer for the Punisher movie that’s due next year. As adaptions go, Marvel has had a lot of luck so far with a few exceptions - X-Men, Daredevil and Spiderman are hot property, while Hulk bombed. Here’s hoping for another hit, though I havent got much knowledge of the comic to go by to judge. Comments invited!
Similarly spotty are the time-travel films. I think I am looking forward to The Butterfly Effect, and I am salivating over the possibility of seeing Timeline, mainly due to the superb book by Michael Crichton!
