Hancock

[GL1]

I wouldn't trust AICN with two bucks... they have a mob-mentality type of bias and if I copy paste some of the stuff I've seen over there over here I'd be, rightfully, called a troll.

I'm guessing the full trailer is going to come out in May with Iron Man or one of the other comic book movies. This will give two months of advanced hype. I've been looking around to find the comic book this is based on, but I can't find it... I didn't think there was one...

I'm still looking forward to it being a good movie... it just needs a great villain to clinch the goodness.

'Hancock' — Another superhero with issues?

Every superhero has a weakness. Hancock just happens to be flush with them.

He hates his job, loves his booze and would be pulled over for flying under the influence — if anyone could catch him after he has plowed through a building or traffic sign.

All of which makes the Will Smith film, due July 2, an anomaly among superhero pictures, most of which are ripped from the pages of comic books.

"He does as much damage as good," director Peter Berg says from the set on Hollywood Boulevard, where he and crews have turned over trucks, set fires and scattered plastic rubble to turn Los Angeles into a city of ruin.

"Jimmy Kimmel was watching from his office and shaking his head at us like, 'What the hell are you doing?' " Berg says. "There are a lot of fun things to making a movie, but the best is creating an entire world that feels real."

Part of getting real: using a harness and wires, not a green screen, to make Smith's superhero fly. The actor was suspended 200 feet above the ground and propelled at 50 mph, and he's more than fine with it.

"The computer effects look great," Smith says after being unhooked from his ride down the famed street, home of the Kodak Theatre and the Oscars. "But it's more fun to get your hands dirty."

Nice hearing about the practical flying.

[terry78]

Yeah, I think it makes more sense for him to be on a harness seeing as how the character will be flying kinda tipsy and haphazard.

 

[GhostPoet]

Wow, that sounds kinda scary actually. Big props to Will for doing it.

it will be mostly CGI. it its the same with all movies. they are always saying how they are all filming but then it is all replaced with CGI.

 

[Gotham]

Not true.

 

[dark_b]

we will see. if i am wrong i will admit it.

 

[Carcharodon]

It's not like that film is universally loathed.

It should be.

[Arkady Rossovich]

My doubts are even more so now.

Will looks pissed.

Hancock is fully original. No comic books about him.

They'll probably have nods to others though....

lovely pictures Retroman!

 

[Savage]

Some great wallpaper worthy stuff.

 

[Hypestyle]

I really hope that charlize gets to show off some sexy scenes here..
go will!
and I wonder if this will get a sequel..

then again, Will should really go ahead and sieze upon a Marvel-based character..

It'd be cool if they made a prequel comic before the film release.
