BOOK: ORIGINS will hit cinemas too, but in live action version with Cate
Blanchett, Christian Bale, Benedict Cucumberpatch and Tom Hollander.
My kind of day Dezmond!! I loved troll dolls! Yes - can't wait to see Jungle Book. Loved the trailer. Thank you!
ReplyDeleteglad you liked it!
DeleteI thought she loved ME, Dezz. Now I hear she loves troll dolls.
Deleteand the trailer too... she is such a twotiming Dixie, she is!
DeleteJungle Book will be interesting, but I don't see it being anything like the funny cartoon movie I grew up with.
ReplyDeleteyou never know... hope at least one of these two rival projects will be good! Probably the other one will be better
DeleteI wonder how many years it's been since I've seen the first movie
ReplyDeletethe movie movie or the animated one?
DeleteDefinitely a different take on the fun Disney comedy (The Jungle Book) that we remember. I loved the trailer!
ReplyDeleteHope we get a real, long, one soon, half of this one was black screen LOL
DeleteI've never seen a one live actor movie before. How interesting. Great trailer.
ReplyDeleteOnly that lil kid is live actor, the rest are CGI animals, while the rival projects will have more live actors and, I'm not sure, but I think live animals too
DeleteWOW so much hoopla over The Jungle Book. I like the concept of a live actor.
ReplyDeleteSuch is the nature of Jungle business
DeleteOh, "The Jungle Book" looks marvelous! Thank gawd for CGI.
ReplyDeleteWish somebody would CGI lil' Dezzy and give me a flawless CGI physique :)
DeleteAhh these both look amazing!! I think I secretly enjoy these types of movies more than my mush. Haha
ReplyDeletebut of course!
DeleteThat trailer looks really good.
ReplyDeleteAnd I had to read this line twice: the beloved TROLLS. It made me shiver. ;)
that is the part of the official synopsis, I added UGLY at the beginning, if you haven't noticed :)) I used to see them ugly dolls at dumpsters and around gypsies... and always felt that is where they belong :)
DeleteWow...Justin Timberlake didn't even look like himself there! Where's the curly hair? Long gone!
ReplyDeleteI've always liked all of the looks that he had over the years... except that short time when he had hobo style... now that he is preppy and elegant me likes it a lot
DeleteI was so psyched about reading this post then I went on Youtube and still have tears in my eyes from watching The Danish Girl movie trailer. But anyway, I am begining to feel enticed to watch this latest Jungle Book version after seeing the trailer. I am liking Kaa and Idris has a meaty role. I have been curious about Trolls and while Justin is a nice add I want to see some trailers in the future to make up my mind.
ReplyDeleteLOL how did you end up at DANISH GIRL from this post? :)
DeleteI clicked on another trailer and one thing just led to another. The internet is a strange place.
Deletetrue that especially when you watch a music video there and then they start offering you the sidebar of videos from freaks you can't stand :)
