'Red' Filmmaker To Direct Ryan Reynolds In 'R.I.P.D.' Adaptation.

[terry78]

Bridges is starting to become a cool character actor moreso in his old age so I don't fault him.

 

[HighFivingMF]

Jeff Bridges is awesome. Ryan Reynolds is awesome. Dead things are awesome. See no reason not to see this.

 

[Gianakin_]

Why doesn't Reynolds murder his agent for the crimes against him?

 

[SWAT]

Looks fun... But I've got the same feeling that this is going to flop. Too bad.

[MadVillainy]

Ive been seeing a lot of tv spots for this. Every channel I turn to I see the spot at least once every 30 minutes

 

[terry78]

They don't want it to get lost in the shuffle. They're hoping for a Men in Black/Ghostbusters thing. I like Bridges but that is the only reason I may check it.

 

[Monsieur Xavier]

"They're hoping for a Men in Black/Ghostbusters"

Priceless ! Luckily for them hope is free !

 

[Rowsdower!]

It basically looks like a MIB wannabe to me. And since I didn't even like MIB that much, I'll probably skip it.

Go Behind the Scenes of R.I.P.D. in a New Featurette

 

[Destructus86]

The CGI just looks awful...everyone looks like they are made out of rubber when they move.

The behind the scenes on HBO really made me excited for this. I wonder why they aren't promoting Kevin Bacon as being in this. He's in it, Jeff Bridges and Ryan Reynolds as we already know are, and Kurt's dad from 'Glee' is in it as well.

 

[DarkSovereignty]

awww sh**, Kurt's dad from glee is in this? Well this just became my must see movie of the summer

Key being Kevin Bacon. I'm seriously saying if they promoted Kevin Bacon more alongside everyone else -- it would have seriously taken it away from being seen as just an MIB clone. Because you have Reynolds, Bridges already - but add Kevin Bacon (film wise coming off of X-Men: First Class)? To my knowledge

we've never had that well known of an actor in MIB before as

the villain, and to me that just possibly says a lot about the script itself. Not saying the script might or will be better, but it is the FIRST time a well known actor has portrayed a villain in this and the MIB films. ADDING: Just checked, actually the first time since MIB I (Vincent was just hidden under a lot of effects)

And coming from the director of RED. I think the marketing department could have definitely presented this as being more than what the trailers show.

 

[Lord]

For a moment i thought RIPD was the organizations from Hellboy, partly due to the article mentioning Dark Horse and me not fully reading it. Then i saw it's rest in peace department, i'm a little disapointed

 

[DarkSovereignty]

Oh. I wish we could get a bprd movie instead of this. Of even another hellboy movie.

 

[bapi]

Czech press screening was today and reactions are shocking! Saw only 0-4/10 reactions! Wouldn't surprise me if RIPD will finish under 20% on RottenTomatoes.

 

[bapi]

Only 29% here. Absolutely crazy.

 

[Tanin]

Any English reviews yet?

 

[scifiwolf]

If this movie finishes with higher than 20% on any aggregate site, I'll be beyond shocked. The second I laid eyes on the trailer, this looked like dogs**t.

 

[bapi]

Any English reviews yet?

Screenings tomorrow.

Universal knew they had a failure on their hands a long time ago. It took them forever to start marketing the film and the marketing we have seen hasn't be good. They are dumping the film this weekend. I can't believe that they spent 130mil on a Ryan Reynolds/Jeff Bridges starring MIB rip off.

 

[Tanin]

I loved the comic so I'm at least hoping for a gem. doubt it though

130M is Universal's number but they were reshooting this movie for TWO years so it could be much more. We'll see what Deadline will write in their boxoffice report this weekend.
