"Boy do we have problems up here"

I love that line. I don't care what anyone says. Wonderfully slimey. t:

 

[KRYPTON INC.]

If this film performs well financially, I think I'd prefer the sequel to be set primarily on Themyscira.

Seems a bit limiting as to where the story goes. Why not something that alternates between the world and powers of Greek Mythology or Fantasy Magic and the modern world?

Is there a new WW tv spot?

"Boy do we have problems up here"

Lol was thinking of that when I saw the pic

 

[titansupes]

Very nice.

 

[GothamBat]

 

[GothamBat]

ok the movies looks great and all but only like 2% of the shots in the spot I just posted weren't in slow mo...

 

[GothamBat]

here's another new spot

 

[Bagide]

I love how she bashes the guy with her shield.

Maybe the movie is 1hr long but the slo-mo stretched it to it's running time lol

 

[Predator jp]

i hope all the slo-mo is just for the trailer.

I dig it.

 

[GothamBat]

I love slow mo but this seems to be taking it too far. It feels like there won't be a single scene that involves kinetic movement at normal speed. It looks to all be in slow mo

 

[Greenlite]

^that statement is full of hyperboles isn't it?

ALL in slow mo, every single scene...

 

[GothamBat]

not really. just watch the spot. out of like 30 shots, something like 21 are in slow-mo

 

[OutOfBoose]

Excessive slow motion is annoying as hell. It should be used super-sparingly, to highlight the most intense/dramatic moment in the entire film. When they inject every second goddamn shot with it... It was fresh in The Matrix and because it made sense from world-building perspective. But it was in damn 1999. 18 freaking years ago. Will they ever learn?

 

[Greenlite]

21/30 is not all.

 

[morningmimosa]

Or maybe, just maybe, slow mo shots are just really suitable to be put in a trailer.

 

[Greenlite]

When I saw Diana used her brace for the first time and blew away Robin Wright, my initial reaction was "gee this slow-mo is so annoying"

That's why people complain. Very suitable.

There should be a law or something for filmmakers. Unless you made at least one decent action film without slow motion, you aren't allowed to use it in your films.

I learned 16 years ago to really not take everything in a trailer at face value. The trailers for the movie ENEMIES AT THE GATE repeatedly showed a "special effect" where characters were highlighted, and freeze framed, while the action continued around them. It looked so bad I almost didn't go see the movie....but I did go, and that effect wasn't in the actual movie.

 

[Predator jp]

nah, that's one slo-mo i like.

Funny you say that, the promo clip I saw in cinema for Pirates, the money shot was a shark jumping over Depp's boat, lasted for about 3 seconds at least, in slow mo.

I was annoyed as hell, this is your one chance to get my money and you showed me a slow mo? What is this, 1999?

Yeah, cause people on the hype (especially you) surely would go through one day without complaining about ****.
