The Elektra trailer. Erm ... hmm. Why do I get the impression that the fight scenes are going to be okay but the story will suck? Oh, right, because I saw Daredevil. (Notice how they mention it comes from the people who brought you X-Men and not Daredevil? Real smooth, that.)

Why don't they have a title card in that trailer that tells the truth? "This movie has Jennifer Garner in leather for two hours and it's not a two-part Alias episode featuring Sydney Bristow masquerading as a dominatrix that keeps getting interrupting by annoying Geico commercials. Plus, it has Goran Visnjic and you don't have to watch lame ER episodes to get him." See? How hard was that?

And the ever-so-dreamy Jason Isaacs ... sans wig of any kind.

you beat me to it.
now we can only hope she does not actually kill him in that scene, or i will leave the cinema rather early on.

Is Elektra really a good name for a heroine anymore?

[doqz.livejournal.com]

Anytime a superhero(ine) name echoes the complex of the same name - you've got a winner.

For example, I would totally go see Oedipus: The Son of Revenge: Now It's Personal.

[trishalynn.livejournal.com]

But after Elektra and Oedipus, are there any good complexes left for superheroes to name themselves after? Penis Envy doesn't sound like a great superhero name, y'know.

But, I'll go see it anyways as, what can I say. I'm shallow.

Mmm. Jennifer Garner in leather.

Oddly enough, I'm going to see Elektra for the Serenity trailer. The leather is a bonus.

Ooo... Another reason! :D :D

Re: title card

That's why I'm going!

I noticed it's coming out on Jan. 14, just before Alias starts again. Hmm... Interesting.

metaquotes! TAG!

I watched the trailer and twitched. I'm normally quite optimistic about movies, but the Suck is just RADIATING and its only a TRAILER. The trailer is supposed to look GOOD. OH MY GOD.

*on another related note, is pining for Alias*

Mmm, Jennifer Garner in red leather...

What? Were you saying something?

Here via metaquotes. See, I work at a movie theater and I noticed today that the movie comes out in January. Ah, that's sort of the kiss of death for a movie. All the sucky one tend to come out in that month. At least that's what my bosses say.

[the-jackalope.livejournal.com]

Oh my goodness yes. And I'm just an avid movie goer. I hate January and Feburary as the level of suck tends to skyrocket.

Good parts:

[redhawk.livejournal.com]

They're running with the Hand and the resurrection plots.

Basically, this looks like a highly mutilated version of Elektra: Assassin. And hey, STICK! We love Stick.


Bad parts:

Everything else.
