Is Hancock On Your Summer Movie To See List?

Hancock

I just saw the trailer for this movie, looks pretty damn good.

Got Jason Bateman in it. It's going to be safe.

a drunk super hero, finally someone I can relate to. 😂

Watched the newest trailer, this is looking like it will be worth a few laughs.

This will be the first super hero movie where Mr. Parker has no grounds for comic book comparison complaints!

Just add a "D" between the N and the C, he'll be all over it.

Why f*cking name the man Hancock? Honestly?

If it's going to be his name, the at the very LEAST give him a decent one.

Saw the trailer just before Indy today, looks like it'll be a fun movie. Could be shit, could be awesome.

I enjoy the premise, well, from what I gathered. Someone with superpowers doesn't actually do anything with their life, the complete opposite of Peter Parker's admirable, yet blinkered philosophy.

Hancock = Funny, that's why.

This looks so awfully familiar to MIB II.

Pass.

lolwut?

Pass.

MIB = Aliens and secret government agents trying to keep control

Hancock = Superhero who is an alcoholic and therefore more of a menace to society than beneficial

Besides both movies starting Will Smith, I see zero familiarities, care to educate me on these?

same

Will Smith
CGI
Petty Jokes
Summer Blockbuster
Story: Save the Planet from destruction.

Formula have been done many times. You don't need to be rocket scientist to notice these things.

As I said....Pass.

I love Will Smith, and this movie looks incredible.
Can't wait to see it!

I'll go see it just to see him flying around with a 40.

Granted, you're right in that there are a lot of similarities, but then why see any movie? A lot of these kinds of movies contain the same kind of thing, it's a matter of doing them right.

Okay AC, you win. You want to talk to me. I'll do it (Let's hope this time is more friendly)

I not speaking of EVERY movie...just Will Smith movies. He always plays the hero and saves the world and blah, blah, blah....can the man just for once try to play the role of villain or something else that would not hurt his ego.

Will Smith, Yes.
CGI, how many movie now-a-days don't have CGI?
Petty Jokes, okay, but that's 90% of all Smith movies and 99.9% of any action-comedy.
Summer Blockbuster, and?
Story, I don't think this one is about him saving the planet.

As mentioned, there's no reason to see any movies from now on, if that's the stance, as few things are an original concept. Why see the Dark Knight, it's going to be Batman kicking ass again and saving Gotham from yet another threat, no?

Six Degrees of Separation

He'd be a horrible villain.

Is it because I said you were right? I'm semi-joking.

He didn't do that in Enemy of the State, or as Robtard said, Six Degrees.

I'm not saying the man is Robert de Niro, just that he's not AS typecast as one might think. I certainly didn't think of him as a superhero for one thing.

I think he's still finding his niche. He's not an amazing actor, but he can usually play a part in a decent movie. Will Smith is just too friendly to be a bad guy, I seriously cannot see him as a bad man.
