The new forums will be named Coin Return (based on the most recent vote)! You can check on the status and timeline of the transition to the new forums here.
The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
starring Johnny Depp, who does a shockingly good job at voice acting, it tells the tale of a domesticated chameleon who stumbles his way into a weird western town straight out of a Coen Brothers movie. It has an amazing script, the action is well choreographed and the art direction is terrifyingly good. It also has performances from Isla Fisher, Bill Nighy, Ned Beatty and Abigail Breslin. There are also two pseudo cameos that I won't spoil here, needless to say they are wonderful.
Honestly this displaces How to Train Your Dragon as my favorite non-Pixar CG movie, beats out a few of Pixar's own movies and is the best western I've seen in a while. Yes, better than True Grit.
Oh wow this looks incredible. Will watch the shit out of it!

I would like to pause for a moment, to talk about my penis.
My penis is like a toddler. A toddler—who is a perfectly normal size for his age—on a long road trip to what he thinks is Disney World. My penis is excited because he hasn’t been to Disney World in a long, long time, but remembers a time when he used to go every day. So now the penis toddler is constantly fidgeting, whining “Are we there yet? Are we there yet? How about now? Now? How about... now?”
And Disney World is nowhere in sight.
When Clint Eastwood as the Man with No Name showed up as the Spirit of the West I pretty much shit my pants
It was just so perfect
even if it was just Timothy Olyphant doing a pretty good Eastwood impression
That scene elevated the movie from pretty good, to ohmygodamazing.

Didn't this movie have it's ending MASSIVELY SPOILERED in the TV spot? I hate when they do that. >:/
Battle: Los Angeles too.
While I'm on it, Battle: Los Angeles, that gave me the impression of a terrible B movie like Skyline when I saw the ads on buses or whatever. I youtubed it, out of curiosity, y'know, and it looks to be fantastic. It's just getting terrible marketing.
I just checked the tv spots on youtube and there's one quick shot from the climax on spot #2 and one in the super bowl trailer, but I don't think either of those are really "spoilers".
since you clicked this spoiler, I guess you want to know; the water gushing up through the clock tower and the girl lizard kissing Rango are both from the last ten minutes of the film.

Been looking forward to this for a bit.
I hope I get to see it soon
I hope Depp does a non-quirky role in the future though. Seems like that's all he does these days
and god the movie is just gorgeous
which I think is a wonderful wonderful thing
It was just so perfect

Ok I think I have to see this now
it is amazing
Rango even says "You used to be the one they called the man with no name."
seeing this now
The pure UGLINESS of some of the characters was amazingly done. I'm particularly thinking of Spoons. What a grimy little mouse thing he is.

I was completely uninterested in the trailers
also if it doesn't have a red sun reference it is not a true love letter to westerns
goddamn do I love that movie
you will love Rango
it is such a damn good Western, while also making fun of the genre
my favorite send-up is the Indian Tracker cliche
Secret Satan
maybe?
Probably not, I've never seen it and judging from the wiki summary the closest thing is the whole "old ways dying, new ways taking over" theme
if that is not enough to make you see it, you are awful
might skip a class to see this on Thursday
also not in 3D fuck yesssssssss
and a lot of the fantastic detail in the characters probably would have been missed
the pinnacle has already been reached
I said what I said
It was so
fucking
good
those fucking particle effects you guys
you guys are giving me more hope, I really, really like the character design
you will wet yourself

Honestly, the trailers and commercials did a great job of not spoiling the story at all.
going to have to figure out when to see this
