Kanedas Bike Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Tomorrowland First teaser for Disney's new movie starring Britt Robertson, George Clooney, Judy Greer, Hugh Laurie and others, directed by Brad Bird. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=1k59gXTWf-A Looks promising, for the most part I like Brad Bird's work so I look forward to seeing how this turns out. -b.

Mr March Posted October 10, 2014 Posted October 10, 2014 Brad Bird's projects always deserve my attention so I'm willing to give it a look. Plus the trailer is quite good and makes a solid impression, so I'm genuinely intrigued. Quote
EXO Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 Not sure what's going on but Brad Bird? I'M THERE! Quote
Mr March Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 (edited) Best Bioshock trailer I've ever seen Seriously, I have faith in Brad Bird. Unlike some more recent filmmakers, Bird has proved himself time and again with each of his projects. I'll be seeing "Tomorrowland" for sure. Edited March 10, 2015 by Mr March Quote
aerocombatpilot Posted March 10, 2015 Posted March 10, 2015 I don't like George Clooney, so...no thanks! Quote
Old_Nash Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 (edited) Ok, I really forget about this movie... New trailer! "George Clooney plays a former child genius who embarks on a danger-filled mission to unearth the secrets of an enigmatic place somewhere in space and time." Ok... And I'm a former Timelord...

M'Kyuun Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 Brad Bird, futuristic buildings and vehicles, mecha...worth a look. Quote
spanner Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 This looks quite good actually! will definitely go see it when it hits! Quote
Mr March Posted May 3, 2015 Posted May 3, 2015 Saw the new "Tomorrowland" trailer opening for Avengers: Age of Ultron. Looks even better than the first. I really am charmed by Brad Bird's love affair with 1940-1950 era science fiction. He takes that aesthetic, updates/reimagines it and then infuses it with modern sensibilities and relevant topical stories. It works so well in his other films and he again looks to have another interesting tale to tell here. Impressed so far. Quote

mechaninac Posted May 20, 2015 Posted May 20, 2015 I suppose this could make for a passable rental when nothing else is available... Quote

M'Kyuun Posted May 24, 2015 Posted May 24, 2015 To answer my question, it was indeed Mr. Garry Chalk. Cool to see him, even in a small part. I thought the movie was cool...a fun ride throughout. The visuals of Tomorrowland were awesome, inspiring, and bittersweet. Brad Bird did a great job portraying the future as we hoped it'd be thru the 60's and 70's and even today, and made it come alive onscreen in such a way that I ached for it. Of course there's social commentary driving the film, but there's also a message of hope, and that's what I liked about it as well. It's obtainable. Some great visuals of mecha and other cool toys throughout....it's utopia for nerds. Just ike a store featured in the film. While Clooney, Robertson, and Laurie played their parts well, the character of Athena, played by Raffey Cassidy, really stood out. Thomas Robinson, who played young George Clooney, did a great job, too. Anyway, Brad Bird fans, and fans of anachronistic, steampunk, and future tech will enjoy the visuals. Good flick, recommended. Also, pretty kid friendly...mild language and tame violence. Quote
karmajay Posted June 1, 2015 Posted June 1, 2015 Yes, I really enjoyed it as well. Very fun and inspiring movie! Quote
