The Book of Eli

[Warped]

this kinda reminds me of Fallout in a way.

I'd see this

edit: also this is not about ELI from Half Life

I think I heard about this a while ago but first time I've seen that trailer. Looks excellent, I love anything post-apocalypse just for the scenery.

Weathered-looking black man with a graying beard, post apocalyptic world, something that looks vaguely like the citadel on the left of that poster...without having watched the trailer yet, could've fooled me.

if they did a Half Life movie, I hope to god its either a prequel or a sequel to the games....but not the original material

Couldn't they have thought of an easier setting for a movie which seems to have the premise "Denzel Washington kicks every one's ass to protect an item of some importance in a semi-ridiculous action movie fashion"? Looks pretty meh.

First though after watching the trailer:

Oh great, Denzel Washington thinks he's Riddick...

 

[Raziaar]

Was anybody else surprised to learn that the guy in that picture was Denzel Washington?

 

[Remus]

You mean Diesel Wahington.

 

[Sloth]

Looks like a nice PA action romp...

Mila Kunis? Really? As if her role in Max Payne wasn't good enough. Well, I admit I could be surprised by the way she does her character in this movie. I just have a hard time taking her seriously when she's all Matrix-gothic.

In May 2007, Warner Bros. signed the Hughes brothers to direct The Book of Eli, based on a script by Gary Whitta.

Gary Whitta of Pc Gamer podcast. that's twice in two days that his name came up in a thread about upcoming movies (he was tied to the WoW movie) ..except it didnt turn out all that great for him:

The script was subsequently rewritten by Anthony Peckham

am i the only one who, for every trailer in recent years, in average enjoy the beginnings of it but anticipate extremely exaggerated and shitty action 3/4 trough it.

every time i watch trailer i feel like having a dejavu. there's always the ****ing action part that makes me roll my eyes in despair.

what i'd want is a combination of children of men, fallout and mad max.
i need no ****ing slo-mo of a sword fight that doesn't show anything except people falling down like they got an ache in their testicles.

come on Hollywood, please...just once!

[Lucid]

Yeah, no thnaks. The Road looks like a much better post-apoc film anyways.
