The preview got me much more pumped for this.

This looks very good, thanks for posting this, I hadn't heard of it till now.

Yeah I've been looking forward to this since it was 1st announced...

Well then i've been looking forward to it since before the book was written so PRRRRRRRP

I always look forwards to a Scorsese film, especially films with a psychiatric hospital/hospital for the criminally insane element. Also a big fan of Patricia Clarkson, noticed she is in it.

This film, I like the look of A LOT!!

Has anyone read the book it's based on? from the writer of Mystic River, and Gone Baby Gone, the latter was a brilliant film.

As for Shutter Island, apparently some who have read the book think the

predictable
apparently. Can someone who has read the book clear this up?

It looks good and all but the premise has been done, maybe not specifically a marshal that gets fed psychotropic drugs, but none the less. They don't quite let you know whether or not this place is haunted or if it's all in his head. If its his head than it has definitely been done. I might go see it but it better keep me guessing and have a major twist at the end.

NOPE! Can't back track. You already said after it was first announced. "Cannot, triple stamp, no erasies, Touch blue make it true.
...you can't triple stamp a double stamp."

But if you want to go that far, I was looking forward to this before you. 🙂

HA! 😆

Well then i'm looking forward to it MORE than you. 😆

And here's some evidence of me looking forward to it.

lol

Pwned.

Pretty good book. Scorsese's a genius, though, so I'm expecting this to be a bloody great film. Loved the atmosphere in the trailer. Maybe shouldn't have revealed so much, though.

Since you have read the book, could you answer my question above?

So does Scorsese just tell Leo hey I have a new movie we start filming on such and such date and its done? Or you think Leo actually looks into them first lol.

I'm not sure I under stood the question but I have read the book and massive spoilers are to be revield below.

Spoiler:
The set up is Marshall Teddy Daniels and his brand new partner that he meets on the boat to the island are on going there to investigate a missing paitent. Upon there they find that a Doctor has gone on vactation right before they got there. Teddy confesses to his new partner that there is a couple other reasons he is there. One is to confront the man who burned down his appartment and killed his(teddy's) wife. The other reason is to investigate rumors of barbaric experiments performed on paitents. What is really going on is that Teddy is actually a paitent there at the island and this whole investigation is an attempt to break him out of this dilusion he has fallen into since he shot his wife after she drowned their two kids years before. The missing doctor is actually teddies partner. According to the end of the book it doesn't work and presumably Teddy is labotamized

^ Oh dear, that's what I got from the trailer...

Nice spoiler tags...

The twist is OK. It's a little bit anticlimactic after a really enjoyable mystery.

Just watched the trailer, gave me a mild boner.

sorry couldn't get them to work. thanks mod for fixing it
