    It's a bit of a shame that the Baby Driver trailer doesn't play up the (reportedly) musical qualities of its action. Maybe it comes down to licensing issues, but it seems like an odd thing to not include, or at least focus on when it's so central to the concept of the movie. Maybe they don't want to play their hand to broader audiences yet, I'm not sure.

    Either way a solid trailer.

    Angry vandalism dance!

    Surprise old guy dance!

    Heartbroken dance :(

    Douche-o-tron gets exponentially douchier!

    I still can't figure out what her dad's accent is. South African? Is he some kind of ultimate fighting blood diamond overlord?

    Why have we gone so long without any dancing? Do those girls on stilts ever leave the lobby? How could they hint at a sad Captain dance number and then not only deny it, but bring the mime back?

    Mime stalking?? Wtf.

    Oh thank God, a massive dance celebration just spontaneously materialized from out of nowhere on an empty street. Jen has gotten over her heartbreak almost as quickly as she fell for the dishwashing dance machine.

    And then they all disappear instantaneously leaving her alone with Douche-o-tron. Of course.

    I need more whiskey.

    That was a very not Edgar Wright trailer for what seems to be a very Edgar Wright movie

    Oh yeah, @Rorshach Kringle, I showed my roommate the latest trailer for Fast & the Furious 8 and he was smiling the whole time during it.

    Afterward he looked at me and simple said, "So I guess I have to watch all the other ones, because I need to see whatever the fuck that is opening night."

    "Well.. You can start off with number five, which is a heist film where they have to outrun Samoan Thor. After that they go to war with Gaston and his spec ops team, and the last movie was basically Marvel's Secret Warriors with car kung-fu."

    "I'm all in."

    So there ya go, he isn't 100% awful all the time.

    Just saw john Wick 2 and that was an awesome fucking movie. Plus the ending practically guaranteed a 3rd film. Glad I caught it before it left theaters.

    Man I feel like watching Koe no Katachi again but maybe I should read the manga first this time round to get more out of it

    I haven't seen the movie, but the manga was initially a (very good) one-shot, which was then expanded into a series. The series was still pretty solid, but you could tell it was stretched into too long of a run for the core story the author really wanted to tell.

    I do think it's one of the best treatments of bullying I've ever read, but it gets pretty flabby by the end and overly melodramatic, if you've seen the movie I'd assume you've probably seen the good parts.

    A trap is for fish: when you've got the fish, you can forget the trap. A snare is for rabbits: when you've got the rabbit, you can forget the snare. Words are for meaning: when you've got the meaning, you can forget the words.

    Baby Driver looks pretty dang good but the main thing that stood out to me in both trailers is yet another Edgar Wright movie where it appears there are no female characters with any actual characteristics

    There's "Jon Hamm's sidekick" and "girlfriend"

    Now I will point out that it was an ensemble award, but Willem Dafoe is still the recipient of an award decided by children

    And why shouldn't he!?!

    Mr. Dafoe just has that presence that children love.

    Willem-Dafoe-Spider-Man.png

    Peter Keogh: William Dafoe, and I think you’ve mentioned this in another interview, is probably the worst therapist in the history of movies. How would you advise him to treat the Charlotte Gainsbourgh character, and what does he do wrong?

    Lars Von Trier: Yeah, first of all, I have been undergoing this cognitive therapy for three years, and it’s I think it’s quite typical for me to be sarcastic. You can say that one of the main ideas behind any treatment of this also is that a fear is a thought, and, you know, it doesn’t change reality. You can say in the film it’s changed reality. All that was kind of what you could read up about the film. I wouldn’t let him treat her in any other way than with his dick, he has an enormous dick, but that maybe I took also…he’s extremely well-equipped. And we had to kind of take the scenes out of the film, we had a stand-in for him, we had to take the scenes out with his own dick.

    PK: Hold on —-You had a stand-in dick? You had to have a stand in dick for Dafoe?

    LV: Yes, yes, we had to have, because Will’s own was too big.

    PK: Too big to fit in the screen?

    LV: (laughs) No, too big because everybody got very confused when they saw it.

    PK: People would get intimidated. Especially when he starts-

    LV: Especially when he-

    PK: When he ejaculates blood, that was uh-

    LV: Oh yeah, yeah. That was the double.

    PK: It’s quite a trick.

    LV: Uh, yes.

    The part in the second trailer where Baby runs across the picnic tables lasts for about a second and a half, but it shows that the action is concise, the camera is steady, and it's kinetic.

    And Edgar Wright. He's garnered more than enough trust outta this big boy.

    "A new take on the epic fantasy genre... Darkly comic, relatable characters... twisted storyline."

    I think there's some confirmation bias going on there maybe, the trailers don't really show how much depth any of the characters will have in the movie, it's too early to tell that

    For anyone who hasn't seen it, watch this video that Wright directed. This will give you a pretty good idea of what's going on with Baby Driver.

    "Edgar Wright made a new movie" is more than enough to get me excited for something. His track record is incredible.
