They just had to go and change the title, though, didn't they?

What? Uprising? Stupid.

 

[Octoberist]

Seriously, what a sham!

 

[Sawyer]

It's Edge of Tomorrow all over again.

Didn't you guys get the memo? Studios don't green light projects unless a colon has been added to the title or it's been reduced to the most basic vanilla level.

Title thing aside, I could be into this. Just from what I've read of the book, it seems a better fit for Singer than something like Jack the Giant Slayer.

 

[Octoberist]

I don't trust him when he's not doing an X-Men movie. I don't know what's up with his career..that creative drive only involves mutants these days.

I actually really liked Valkyrie. This film feels more like it can stretch his creative muscles over something like Jack the Giant Slayer.

^ I also really liked Valkyrie. It's not up there with Schindler's List or anything, but it was a strong, tense WWII thriller. He got me hoping that they'd succeed and kill Hitler... when that obviously wasn't going to happen.

 

[Doctor Jones]

It was very tense. And for a few minutes, Singer actually convinced me that they succeeded in killing Hitler when obviously it wasn't the case. But it takes serious skill to do that.
