Jupiter Ascending (Wachowskis)

Sean Bean didn't die in Silent Hill 2. He's defying his own trope.

He also lived in National Treasure & Flight Plan.

I cannot wait for this movie. It's just the kind of thing I love to watch!

I totally forgot. Nice catch.

Yeah, I've been meaning to watch it a 2nd time, with subtitles.

Let me know if it's an eye-opener.

It's probably less linear and more cerebral than your normal sci-fi film though, and that's why it is both the most expensive indie movie ever made and one of the largest flops considering said budget.

However, I insist that it's one of the most mentally mind blowing and stimulating movies I've ever seen.

I think the movie should be re-titled Jupiter Falling.

Looking at the clip, how many times does Mila (Jupiter) seem to fall off something?

An irony that I'm sure has not escaped the Wachowskis. They're quite sharp. If you've ever studied the Matrix films you'll know just how sharp: i.e. nothing is an accident.

This is going to be equally as big a failure as John Carter.

Doesn't mean it was shit movie because of a box office performance.

I can see the Wachowskis saying, "Do you know what this scene needs? ANOTHER SLO-MO FALL!" & high-fiving each other.

Some of the best movies I've seen were way off of the grid. And I don't mind hipster-style "It's so indie it's good"; I mean good budget movies who just didn't get any exposure.

Solomon Kane comes to mind. And don't forget that The Shawshank Redemption was a box office failure.

Agree with Solomon Kane...it went straight to the shelves here in Australia.
Grew up reading Conan & Kane novels...was good to see a decent rendition of it.

Only thing i've read of Solomon Kane is one of the comic adaptations of the stories from Dark Horse.

Robert E. Howard was the creator/writer.

Hence why i said "comic adaptation of the stories"

"Hence"?

I luv it when you use fancy words.

And there's your boyfriend.

Lana Wachowski looks like a reasonably attractive chick these days.

Would smash.
