Tom Wellings' upcoming films

:) I don't know if you guys would want to use this thread but I figured this way it wouldn't get moved.

[KikiDee]

I think this is a great idea. Thought about starting one myself earlier when I posted then found out it was moved. I'll post here. who's up for a brewsky?:p

Good thinking, Lara. :)

I'm wondering if Tom's role in CBTD2 will be really reduced since his time between The Fog and starting up on SV again is so short? It would be nice if the guy was able to squeeze in a little R&R time too.

I'll have whatever you're having Kiki...

I thought about that too. There's no way they could make his part very significant considering Smallville is scheduled to start back to work early July. I don't see how they can maneuver it unless they push back the series start date. Honestly, I wouldn't want to do it. I used to teach and that summer vacation was necessary to refuel my brain cells. I wasn't even "on the job" for 16 hours a day. Not saying I didn't work (hey I'm a mom), but there is a difference to dealing with adolescents all day and hanging from wires and pretending to be a superhero all day. Then again........



Cheers!http://www.superherohype.com/forums/images/smilies/biggrin.gif I tried to figure out how to split the post and failed miserably. Need to go back to message board 101. O' I'm drinking some nasty guiness my hubby had in the fridge. I'm an insomniac tonight.

...Shoot: June 13 – Sept. 2/05Well, unless they do a lot of Welling's scenes first, his role will probably be like it was in the first film. In a way it makes sense though. There ARE 12 kids in that family to divide screen time among. LOL

Unless the sked has changed, SV starts back up around the 2nd week of July. (ish).

Ok, I know this is politically incorrect, but I couldn't be happier that Tom now is The Fog, CBTD2 and season 5 of Smallville. Tommy overload! Woot! I know the poor boy will be exhausted, but as a huge fan, he's giving us the mother load! (Makes up for last year when he dropped off the face of the earth.)

I just remembered.. what about promo appearances? I hope he has time to still make the circuit of those. I mean, how many times can we watch those same appearances over and over from past years. (Okay.. lots. ;))

I'd *love*to see him appear on Ellen, she's hysterical.

I'd *love*to see him appear on Ellen, she's hysterical.

I've been wanting to write her show for ages to get him to appear. Seems natural since they are both produced by Warner Bros. My daughter loves her and keeps trying to figure out a way to get herself on the show. (She's 7). I think he would have a great time on it and she doesn't usually ask really personal questions so he wouldn't feel uncomfortable.

Of course, I'm getting ahead of myself. I just want to see some new live interviews. The guy definitely keeps to himself.http://www.superherohype.com/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif

Well, unless he can some work on weekends like he did on the start of The Fog... what a hassle, but they'll probably do what they can to work around his sked.

I don't see SV pushing back their start date, however. Their sked is much tighter than a feature's would be....

[Serene]

Some positive online press..

Latino Review (http://www.latinoreview.com/scriptreviews/thefog/review.html)

[triplet]

It looks like they reviewed the early draft of the script that has been sold on eBay...

The "Nick picking up Elizabeth from the train station" thing isn't in the character sides which appeared to be from a later draft....

Three star script review from Latino Review. Huzzzah!!! :D :up:

I'd give 4 outta 5.... it was a great read, but I'd love to read the shooting script.

[AgentPat]

I'd give 4 outta 5.... it was a great read, but I'd love to read the shooting script.What's LR's top star award? Five stars or four? I was assuming four. If five, then three aint as great as it sounded. ;)

[Lara]

It's 5 I checked their other reviews and found a 5 star one for BB. Still 3 isn't too bad.

[rumpuso]

It would be interesting to compare Latino Review's star ratings for previous horror flicks...that would show us if the 3 star rating for The Fog is average or meh.

Unless the sked has changed, SV starts back up around the 2nd week of July. (ish).

Actually, the local teamsters union (http://www.teamsters155.org/WebDocuments/rptProdACtiveList.pdf) site has the production starting on Monday, July 11th.

FYI

That doesn't give him much time to fit in shooting for CBTD 2...

Also, I saw Hilary Duff on Leno last night and the only reason I watched her inanity was because I was hoping she would mention filming in Toronto or working on the film.

No such luck and she was truly painful to watch... a more empty headed actress I don't think I've ever seen, although Gillian Anderson and Katie Holmes are both up there.... ;)

Actually, that list is very interesting... Like they have listings for Scary Movie IV, Dr. Doolittle 3 and Like Mike 2 and all I have to ask myself is why?

Why?

Oh, the humanity!

Now at least we know it's true he's actually involved. I was starting to think Variety had made a blurb because there was no news anywhere else.

Here's the current production list (http://www.city.toronto.on.ca/tfto/pdf/currentlist.pdf) of films being shot in Toronto, and CBTD2 is listed as being scheduled to shoot from June 13th to September 2nd.

I would love to have lunch with those two, what a riot BH would be....

She'd keep Tom laughing for sure and that would make it hard for me to pay attention to my food long enough to eat it... ;)

Gah! How annoying. I went looking for The Fog thread and forgot it was moved. [slaps head] :rolleyes: LOL

Anyhoo...

According a poster over at IMDb...

"The Fog teaser poster is supposed to be up in certain theaters by today (to coincide with the rush of people going to see BB.)

No stars, but a big evil scary foggy face. Very very cool.

Look for it this weekend."

So if you (or anyone else for that matter) wouldn't mind passing them along ... I could do one of my silly spoiler write-ups that annoy people so much. *g*

When I did The Fog spoiler write-up, I got a few comments insinuating that I'm insane. Why those people were bothered by *my* insinuation that Nick thought Elizabeth was amking out with a dead body, I have no idea. ;)

Anyone who wants one, just PM me your email, thanks:)

And didja notice he's top billed on the poster? Right after the title...

:D

That's way cool.... I'm so excited and the side that Melly so generously sent me make it appear that Charlie Baker will be having a star crossed lover kinda thing going on with the girl from the other family.

So, his part may just be a teensy bit bigger and won't resolve off-screen like last time!

The Fog looks amazing, Season 5 will be great, The fourth season DVD set will be coming out in a few months, I will be leaving this hick town for good soon, and Tom's part in CBTD 2 will more than just window dressing!

Life is good!

I might see Bewitched too. The possibility of a FOG trailer just adds to the tension. Although, I was talking to my dad about how loud I squealed when they showed the Serenity trailer before BB, and he said that they didn't show it when he saw it (in another state). So, I guess you never know..

I watched that clip...they showed lots of the cast, but I didn't see Tom.

Bummer! I want to see him!

I'd love to digitize it but my new laptop is sans firewire... :( (My video capture break out box connects via 1394 to convert analog to digital...) So, I don't have the technology right now...

I wish I'd gotten the USB 2.0 version now.

I'll see what I can do, however.

I know 'Rene's TiVO is networked, mine isn't.

That might be cheaper and easier, actually, for me to network mine... I'll look into setting that up. In the meantime, maybe 'Rene can help.

[jas01724]

Thanks, but please don't go to any trouble on my account - I've had people doing that before and I end up with a guilt complex. If things aren't working I'll survive. ;)

I wish I'd gotten the USB 2.0 version now.Nooooooo! No. Firewire is a gazillion times better than USB (maybe only a thousand times better than USB 2.0) so just NO. Although in your place I may have bought both. :o

its like 2 seconds, and there's no sound...but I'd have to change the way my dvd recorder is set up to get sound, and I hardly think its worth it to (barely) him saying "go!"

I have a WMV version thats lower quality if anyone needs that format --I rarely use my video capture, so I'm sure I can figure a way to get the wmv higher quality

Pathetic to d/l a 2 sec. clip, but I'm okay with pathetic. :)

I watched the Insider piece also, and the what I found interesting was that Carmen Electra is also starring in CBTD2. Isn't she also in her 20s? If so, is she the new love interest for Tom's "Charlie?" I don't see her as the mother of the "other family" the Bakers have trouble with in the film.

Hey, there are sneaks of The Island this weekend (I heard that on the radio this morning) if it's true that the trailer will be in front of that film maybe it will be for the sneak previews too.

Just an FYI....

If anyone has a chance to see the sneak, let us know if it's in front of the film and where...

I'd be interested in knowing if it was the last one shown before the film starts, which would mean it's "attached" to the film.

I think that would be great news.

EDIT: Several films bowing the same day as the Fog already have trailers out...

Coming Soon has posted a 21 minute long audio clip recorded at The Fog presentation at ComicCon today. Here's a snip, which begins at the 11:50 mark...

Reporter:
How about Tom Welling. Why did you cast him?

Wainwright:
One of the things about Tom that suits his role so well is that he's just this sort of great all-American guy who is just charming, great actor, he's got a lot of... you want to hang out with him. What's interesting about his role - it's very different really than the Tom Atkins role, for a couple of obvious physical reasons... you have to really see the movie, but obviously their relationship [Welling and Grace's characters] is more complex than the hitchhiker - they're old boyfriend girlfriend. She left town without letting him know, she moved to New York, and he's freaked out about that. And he's been kind of pining for her and is really upset and when he sees her again, she's come back without telling him, so he's kinda freaked out that she disappeared without telling him, she's came back without telling him, what's going on? And she's almost...

Grace interrupts:
There's a past that can have sexual tension...

Wainwright:
Yeah! [laughter] So there's a lot of great things going on between them.

LMAO!! :up: :D

I downloaded it last night, but have been too lazy to listen to it, lol...is there anything else interesting in the interview?The part I transcribed is the only part of the interview that mentioned Welling and his character. There were a lot of questions about the horror aspects - how scary would the film be, amount of gore, comparisons to the first pic, etc. etc. They talked about Grace's character (and made it seem almost like the film revolved around her? :confused: ), and there was some discussion of Carpenter's involvement and Wainwright's friendship with Debra Hill. All in all, a good interview, but I wish Tom had been there. Yeah, I know, duh! :(

I'd have gone in any case, I took a look at the panels they had there. Tons of panels on writing.

Although most had to do with writing for games or comics, writing is writing. I would have loved to have gone to some of those.

Well, the latest scuttlebutt is that The Fog's trailer (which was apparently shown at ComicCon, btw) is going out with The Island.

Wow! Not too shabby. That's a pretty big film to attach a horror movie trailer to, but I'm not complaining.

The info was posted over at IMDb. Take it with a grain of salt though. Guess we'll find out for sure this Friday. I'm not going to rush to the theater, but I was definitely planning on seeing The Island anyway. Bonus! LOL I hope the rumor is true. :)

From FilmForce IGN:

Comic-Con 2005: The Fog Panel
The remake of the John Carpenter classic.

July 18, 2005 - Among the films highlighted Saturday during Sony's Comic-Con presentation was the forthcoming remake of The Fog, based on the 1980 cult classic helmed by John Carpenter. Director Rupert Wainwright and co-star Maggie Grace (Lost) were the only guests in attendance, as leading man Tom Welling was on location filming another project.

The panel began with the debut of the creepy new trailer for The Fog wherein the citizens of Antonio Bay are terrorized by the eerie, deadly fog that comes out at night. The protagonists are the young couple of Welling and Grace. The fog, as it turns out, harbors something else, something sentient that is killing off the townsfolk for some reason.

Wainwright spoke about his respect for Carpenter as a director, and expressed his gratitude that Carpenter was "gracious" enough not to "tread on another director's toes."

Grace proclaimed Carpenter's film "the Holy Grail to so many horror filmmakers," and said she was interested in the part because it was so different from her role on the hit show Lost. Oh, yeah, and because she gets a shower scene with Tom Welling. (Yes, she really said that.)
*** ROFLMFAO ***
Wainwright revealed that, unlike Carpenter's version, his film will delve into the town's past and explores questions the first film brought up. The Fog rolls back in October 14th.

Here's a little bit more from comingsoon.net, I post just the part relevant to The Fog:

The director of the upcoming remake of Carpenter's The Fog, Rupert Wainwright came out along with the movie's star Maggie Grace, who is best known for playing Shannon on the ABC drama Lost. Wainwright started out by giving the audience a sneak peek at the new trailer for The Fog (http://www.comingsoon.net/films.php?id=7124), which will debut next weekend. Basically, it set up the premise for the movie, which is about a fog that sweeps over an island, killing people in its wake, and it showed a few scenes of Grace with her co-star Tom "Smallville" Welling, and a scene of the movie's co-star Selma Blair in peril. The audience applauded madly after seeing it.

Wainwright, who made his name directing videos for the likes of Michael Jackson and M.C. Hammer before taking on horror with the 1999 thriller Stigmata, thought that producer John Carpenter was more nervous about this remake even then he was. "I was kind of surprised when I went for the interview at the studio that John wasn't there," he said, adding that co-producer David Foster said that John didn't want to impose his own vision on the movie despite having written, directed and scored the original. "John's a genius at making horror movies, but he's also very respectful of other people's space." Grace said that having a shower scene with Tom Welling was something she considered when choosing to do the movie. Wainwright said that the best reason to do this remake was to answer some of the questions that arose from the original movie, and he said that the movie would delve into the past in order to do so.

I guess the rumor of the trailer being attached to The Island might be true...

[Spider-Gamer]

I guess the rumor of the trailer being attached to The Island might be true...
I have to agree! :)

[AgentPat]

That part about how the shower scene affected Grace's decision still CRACKS me UP! Not that I can blame her or anything - it would DEFINITELY influence ME - but it's still pretty freakin' funny for a professional actress to admit.

I agree, that is way tooo funny. And Selma Blair had trouble delivering some lines that referred to her character not being attracted to Tom's character. She said she just looked at his face and couldnt say it.

This movie is sounding really gooood.

I'm hoping that there will be a longer trailer and that this is just a teaser. I would think a trailer would want to feature that handsome mug a LOT more.. it's the kind of face that will bring in women and teen girls to see this movie.

Hulk, it looks like they wanted to target the horror aspects, not necessarily the cast. Notice that the actor's names weren't even listed. They're going more for the atmosphere, I think, which should satisfy the horror crowd.

[The Incredible Hulk]

well Blair and Grace were shown enough, then again I guess it's scarier seeing them get chased by the Fog than it would be to watch Welling... Then again most of the audience would be expecting him to just superspeed into it and kick the crap out of it. :D

[AgentPat]

...Then again most of the audience would be expecting him to just superspeed into it and kick the crap out of it. :DLMAO!!! Too true. It's like that scene with the bully in CBtD.

Just so you know, I saw The Island tonight (kick-ass film, great car chases) and the trailer for The Fog was in front of it.

It was cool seeing it big screen, it's the exact same thing you've all seen, but what a treat seeing it so big.

It looks like it will be a beautifully shot film.

:D :up:

I can't wait...

But from what Scarlett said over on DTS, not everyone is seeing it with The Island. It wasn't the attached trailer, so I'm not surprised so it might not be in front of that film for everyone.

It was the only horror trailer, however, in front of that. The rest were mostly thrillers...

:D

I was too into watching it to pay attention but I think I overheard some people say they thought it looked good after it was over... There was definitely some murmering right after it was over, I just couldn't hear what people were saying.

I'm seeing The Island again on Friday, so maybe I'll be able to pay better attention.

Not quite.

I think I confined myself to a couple of kinda loud "Cool's" but I think even that got some looks from the two popcorn-inhaling, soda slurping neanderthals sitting to my right... ;)

I might have been more vocal if I hadn't been by myself... ;)

[The Incredible Hulk]

dont know if this will happen with the Fog but when I saw the CBTD trailer in theaters I heard about 5 people talking about Superman when Welling came on, and a few more than that during the actual film

[avidreader]

I went to see the Island today, very gripping movie if anybody is into action and twists. The Fog was the second trailer to be shown, and it gave me the chills watching it. Cant wait to see it!


Just on a side, they also showed a Nic Cage movie that was coming soon. As I watching it, I thought that guy always seems to come across the same no matter what movie he is playing in. Its like the only character that he can act is Nic Cage. Sure glad he wasnt given the Superman role.

TW on the big screen tho, awesome. And he was featured just as much as the two females in the trailer.

Well, considering there'll be little to no special effects, I'd say a three month post-production turnaround is more than feasible.

[jas01724]

Yeah, but they didn't do a good job on the last one with six months. ;)

[mellyM]

I liked CBTD well enough, mainly because I adore Steve Martin, Bonnie Hunt.. and that good-looking guy who played the oldest son. ;) I do hope this one has a better script than the last one though. Again though.. like it matters! :D

The last one did so well at Christmas, so hopefully this one will too. They might as well push it and make the big family movie season =)

[triplet]

I'm really surprised that it's so soon...

Wow... That is earlier than I thought too.

That's pretty heavy post production sked...

I hope they don't ruin it while rushing the cut. :rolleyes:

[AgentPat]

I think you guys are stressing over nuthin'. CBtD2 isn't an overly complex film to post. Compare it to a film like War of the Worlds. You know, Tom Cruise, Steven Spielberg? Yeah, that one - the one with over 1000 effects shots. The film went from greenlight to premiere in less than a year. It lensed for four months between November 7, 2004 and March 7, 2005, had less than four months of post (ouch!) and OPENED in theaters (in the US) on July 4, 2005.

So don't sweat it. CBtD2 is general family fare - I don't see it shooting for Oscar attention. I'm sure it'll be just peachy and deliver *exactly* what folks would expect: 2 hours of mindless entertainment. LOL

[jas01724]

I'm not stressing because I think it's complex, I just don't trust the people making it. :p

I consider Steven Spielberg (to use your example) to be a completely different kettle of fish to Adam Shankman. :D

[AgentPat]

I consider Steven Spielberg (to use your example) to be a completely different kettle of fish to Adam Shankman. :DI hear ya, but he's got Bringing Down the House ($132M) and The Pacifier ($113M) under his belt, so I doubt CBtD2 will be a total bomb. Keep the faith, James. :)

[jas01724]

Oh, I'm not worried that it'll bomb. I just want it to be somewhere near watchable for me. The first one didn't do so well on that front. ;)

[AgentPat]

Oh, I'm not worried that it'll bomb. I just want it to be somewhere near watchable for me. The first one didn't do so well on that front. ;)Well, it wasn't MY kind of film either. I never EVER would have watched that film, never less buy the DVD, if it wasn't for TW. LOL

Which begs a good point: Of all the things that a studio could want from the actors it cast, bankability is numero uno. I understand wanting to have a good script and fine performance, but the studio is content enough to just make a boatload of money. When they find actors who can guarantee big opening weekends and double production budget returns, they turn into happy clams on a mudflat. By January '06, I'd be willing to bet Tom's gonna be three for three, and that's pretty damn good for a n00b, so I'm sure it'll open even more doors for him. ;)

[jas01724]

I think you guys are stressing over nuthin'. CBtD2 isn't an overly complex film to post. Compare it to a film like War of the Worlds. You know, Tom Cruise, Steven Spielberg? Yeah, that one - the one with over 1000 effects shots. The film went from greenlight to premiere in less than a year. It lensed for four months between November 7, 2004 and March 7, 2005, had less than four months of post (ouch!) and OPENED in theaters (in the US) on July 4, 2005.

So don't sweat it. CBtD2 is general family fare - I don't see it shooting for Oscar attention. I'm sure it'll be just peachy and deliver *exactly* what folks would expect: 2 hours of mindless entertainment. LOL
My point exactly.

[Serene]

Which begs a good point: Of all the things that a studio could want from the actors it cast, bankability is numero uno. I understand wanting to have a good script and fine performance, but the studio is content enough to just make a boatload of money. When they find actors who can guarantee big opening weekends and double production budget returns, they turn into happy clams on a mudflat. By January '06, I'd be willing to bet Tom's gonna be three for three, and that's pretty damn good for a n00b, so I'm sure it'll open even more doors for him. ;)

Obviously the first CBTD did well enough to warrant a sequel, but does anyone know exactly how well?

Question: So what's the big difference between ABC's Lost, where malevolent forces run rampant on a a spooky beach, and Wainwright's low-budget remake of John Carpenter's 1980 fright-fest, where, uh, malevolent forces run rampant on a spooky beach?

Answer: "Shower scenes with Tom Welling."
- Maggie Grace

LOL!! ;)

Answer: "Shower scenes with Tom Welling."
- Maggie Grace

LOL!! ;)

I don't watch "Lost" but I've decided that I like that Maggie Grace. :)

[AgentPat]

I don't watch "Lost" but I've decided that I like that Maggie Grace. :)I envy her! :mad: :( :p

[triplet]

I think she's great.... I wasn't too impressed with her initially but I think she was underutilized early on in Lost.

She was brilliant when her oily step-brother, played by the equally oily Ian Somerhalder, was killed off toward the end of last season.

Shannon's grief and guilt were devastating, she's a far better actress than I had thought... Hopefully she'll be used more this season now that IS is out of the picture...

[avidreader]

I read that article too, I thought it was pretty cutsie.

Off topic slightly, but I am curious to know this from someone who watches the show as I've never watched Lost, but Triplet do you think it can go on for too long without it turning into Gilligan's Island. I just dont see how long these people can be lost for.:confused:

[triplet]

I'm worried about the second season, actually. I think they did fine keeping up the suspense but they had some major revelations at the end of the season, but also some killer cliff-hangers.

I dunno, I will probably watch it, ain't crap on Wednesdays at 8pm (9pm for your Right and Left Coasters) that I watch, except for West Wing. I can tivo two shows, so it's no worries for me... If it tanks, I will probably stop watching it...

I love Matthew Fox and Josh Halloway, and there's spoilers a major male cast member will die if it's either one of them, I will stop watching. They're the main reasons I watch, they're both hot as hell and Josh has that burly bad boy thing going on that I like so much... ;)

And Matthew Fox is an ex-male model, so he has that drop dead gorgeous, model turned actor thing that I also have lately become very fond of... ;) (See my sig.. :D :up:)

And Naveen Andrews is eminently watchable as well, btw... ;)

What's not to like?

Okay, I'm like spamming but here's a unbiased site's take on the trailer:

OK, I'm intrigued

The Fog

I hate to say it, but I actually kind of liked this trailer. I'm not usually a very big fan of horror movies, but this preview casts the picture as an atmospheric horror film, rather than a more typical slasher film filled with cheap scares. Of course, it's not all that surprising that this movie would sell itself as atmospheric, since that is exactly how the original The Fog, released 25 years ago, garnered its cult status. Certainly, this is a remake that seems to prefer not to stray very far from its lineage. The young, good-looking cast – which includes Tom Welling, Maggie Grace, and Selma Blair – is culled primarily from popular television series, and in that sense, reminds me of a movie like I Know What You Did Last Summer. It would seem that the film's producers are relying on the draw of their cast, as well as this genuinely creepy trailer, to lead the movie to financial success, rather than appealing to those who might have enjoyed the original. I don't necessarily think this is all that bad a strategy, especially after being pleasantly surprised by this clip.

[AgentPat]

...I doubt they even know what a Henley is! Ah, boat racesY'know, in all honesty, I never really gave the clothes a second thought. It'd be like asking why do they make him wear plaid (as Clark) if you happen not to like plaid. Well duh, it's wardrobe. It's just part of the character's "costume." Is "Henley" the designer of that Fog shirt? I never heard the term before, but it "looks" right for a seaport town LOL.

The only minor problem is that he already has such a long neck, and the cut of it makes him look like a giraffe.He DOES have a long neck, though I think it's proportional for his height.

http://www.patcostello.com/temp/TW-TCA.jpg

Maybe that's why they usually give him high collars or round cut T-shirts - to de-emphasize it?

http://img354.imageshack.us/img354/3853/picfog35az.jpg

Newsarama has an interview with Scott Allie, writer of the Fog prequel comic.
For those of you wondering how much the comic has to do with the movie:

NRAMA: What were the biggest challenges of writing this story? The biggest rewards?

SA: The biggest challenge was to let the events of the film remain totally singular, yet create a back-story that was essential to the movie story. The film is about a sort of a haunting that has no precedent for the characters or the location… so Tom Welling’s character and Maggie Grace’s character have never had any supernatural experiences, nothing worth doing in a comics story.

Their town has never been through anything like this – this haunting. So creating a premise in which similar elements of a haunting—though not identical, or we’d be quoting—similar elements would take place, but in a different location, to different characters was a challenge.

But the real trick was making those elements intimately related to the film, to what does happen to Welling and Grace’s characters. We wanted the comic to be a totally independent story, which you could read and understand without the film, which we’ve done—but we also wanted it to influence and affect the events of the film. We do borrow two pivotal characters from the film as our two main characters, but then we introduce half a dozen others. We introduce elements that don’t remotely appear in the film—the Shanghai traders and the refugee from the Civil War that are mentioned in the promotional material for the comic.

The biggest reward was being able to tell a story with a very funky, very old-fashioned sense of horror, and not be restrained by a hero who must come out on top in the end, not have to build in that scene where the hero fights the monster and reassures the audience that nothing bad can really happen. This is a classic horror story, but not even in the tradition of the EC Comics. This goes further back, while drawing on some of the modern stuff the new film draws upon. And I’m fascinated with the years following the Civil War in America, and the back-story to the film just happens to fall in those Restoration years.

Henley refers to the style of collar as far as I'm aware, and I think it can actually have long or short sleeves. And it fits very nicely with a seaport town, because it was named after the British town of Henley, which hosts an annual international regatta. Not heard of the Henley Regatta? Do a Google search. :p

[jas01724]

Well, I believe here a "henley" is a long sleeved variety, but I could be wrong... often am.I'm not certain about that part, but I'm fairly sure the name corresponds to the style/cut of the shoulders and collar, not the sleeves. A Henley (at least a "real" one) has a button-up collar with a low, round neck, and no lapels. The length of sleeve doesn't really make much difference to the neckline.

It is very nautical, but I'm not sure it's a good choice for a guy like Nick to be honest. It's more of a spoiled rotten brat ivy league look nowadays...Ah, but the spoiled rotten brats often wear it without going anywhere near a boat. :p Real boating peeps wear them because they're traditional.

As far as I'm aware, in the States a "henley" is a long sleeve t-shirt with a four or five button placket in the front. In any case, I've never heard of anyone calling the short sleeve variety a "henley"... Whenever I've heard the term, it's only be in reference to the long sleeve type.

But you know, it's been awhile since I've gotten any LL Bean catalogues so I don't know what they call the short sleeve variety for sure.

No guarentee it will be in front of it everywhere, going from the spotty coverage with The Island, but you never know. The film was great, btw. Rachel McAdams was beautiful and terrific and Cillian Murphy was way creepy and intense.

There was a lot of talking toward the end of it and even some laughter, I wasn't sure what to think of that but James thought it was a good sign.

The only other horrors that were previewed were the Cave and some Mars/Genetic experiments gone awry thing with The Rock... those two weren't as loudly recieved, I don't think. Especially The Rock one.. that film just looks dumb, so i think again that is a good sign.

And the theatre was filled with the target audience: teen girls. Most of the audience was teen girls, in fact.

There were a few couples and a couple of small groups of guys and one or two old farts like me, but mostly teen girls...

I think they liked it. There was a group of them right in front of me that chattered excitedly right after the trailer ended...

My son and I went to see "March of the Penguins" over the weekend and one of the trailers they previewed was for a remake of "Yours, Mine and Ours", a movie that will be a direct competitor for Cheaper By The Dozen 2. Both films with a release date around Christmas. The preview was with Dennis Quaid and Renee Russo, both opposites in everything, meeting eachother, falling in love and bringing their families together. The kids were battling, there was lots of slapstick falling down comedy, and the set for the house looked to be identical to the one for the Bakers in Cheaper By the Dozen. I wonder now which comedy will have more of a draw, which actors have more of a pull over audiences. We shall see.

I wouldn't worry, Cheaper has a better cast, and is a sequel with a built in audience. I guess we'll have to see if either movie moves their release date.

The only other horrors that were previewed were the Cave and some Mars/Genetic experiments gone awry thing with The Rock... those two weren't as loudly recieved, I don't think. Especially The Rock one.. that film just looks dumb, so i think again that is a good sign.



That's DOOM. Based on the video game.

Is that the movie that The Rock is in.

I think CBTD2 will kick the pants off the other movie.

Steve Martin, Bonnie Hunt, Hilary Duff, Tom Welling. Cant go wrong.

Right... it looked way dumb.

No way I'm seeing that. The Rock maybe needs to get a new agent, it looks truly dreadful.
