Wrath of The Titans
 

I went last night. Can't say I was amazed.

Granted, I never saw the first one, so that might have been why I had trouble caring about the characters. The action was definitely good, but it wasn't anything that blew me away. I liked the fact that it wasn't exaggerated, Perseus actually fought like a man and wasn't doing a bunch of super-human sh*t and winning his fights with ease. His brawl with the Minotaur was pretty brutal.

Ninja Turtles will be a different type of movie than this, so I'm not in panic mode or anything, but I'm not totally thrilled just yet either.

Wrong section. But the movie does look promising and I plan on seeing it next weekend.

I put it here because Jonathan Liebesman directed it.

The sole fact that Liebesman directed this and horror movies makes me comfortable for Turtles. It would be weird for them to hire him and Bay and expect a kiddy-film. So I'm confident that Liesbesman is going to deliver an action-packed, more mature TMNT flick.

That being said, haven't seen Wrath yet, but I'm gonna see it this coming week for sure.

I'll just copy and paste what I said in the latest movie thread :

I thought that he did a decent job directing the film. His action scenes were good. So I think that he might do a good job directing action scenes in the new turtles movie.

What the hell did this get moved for? Not enough Bay bashing to stay in the TMNT Movie section?

Because, despite having a the same director, this probably should be in the general movie thread.

Did they "release the Kraken" again?

I mean, I personally wouldn't have gone to see it if the director wasn't attached to Ninja Turtles, and I'm sure that's the case for most other 'dromers.

I just figured it would have got more discussion on JL's directing style in the TMNT section.

I understand your logic, maybe a more general thread about Liebesman's other films and their potential implications for Ninja Turtles might not be moved.

Gonna talk heather into seeing it with me tonight I think.

I'm always torn on this franchise because the 1981 film is my favorite movie of all time.

Try "judge the skill of Ninja Turtles' next director, for ToTheNines commands it". That thread should stay put. :)

:lol:

Better yet "Jonatan Liebesmans new movie Wrath Of The titans was not that great, for TMNT he might be messing up the stor".

That would have got 38 pages of discussion for sure.

I lol'ed !

The Minotaur was my favorite fight scene in that movie. I enjoyed it for what it was. And no the Kraken wasn't released, this time it was Cronos the father of Zeus, Hades and Posieden, who was apparently made of lava.
I feel pretty good about the TMNT movie so far. I'm gonna hold out any comments until the movie comes out.

Goin Thursday to see it
