The teaser trailer and the full-blown trailer for Constantine look incredible...

This looks to have a Matrix type of feel for me... meaning it will give me the WOW! feeling.

[AlphaSnake]

Omfg Rachel Weisz is so fucking hot. I love her.

 

[Saturnman]

Hmmm, the movie would have been more interesting if it were about the Roman emperor...

 

[Dan]

Yeah, I think this one looks pretty sweet. I like that the trailer is somewhat well crafted and not just a jumbled mess of quick images of demons as I would probably expect most studios to do.

I'll definitely be seeing it. Keanu Reeves looks to have another winner on his hands.

 

[AlphaSnake]

We already had one shitty about that. If it were about Constantine the emperor, then I'd regret taking up Western Civ. in school when I could learn all of this crap on a movie screen.

 

[Bob White]

Since "The Nu" is in it, it must be good.

Anyone see "The Nu" in Somethings Gotta Give with Jack Nicolson. Dude was fucking SUAVE. Shame "The Nu" couldn't save those last two matrix movies though.

 

[Saturnman]

I know all about Constatine too. That's why I want to see it on the screen. It might make some Christians ambivalent about it.

About the biggest compliment I could ever give Reeves is that I was rooting for him over Nicholson in Something's Gotta Give. I mean, that's huge.

The Nu?

 

[Tritroid]

I remember seeing this trailer a long while ago.

Either way, Keanu Reeves as the lead = automatic blowage.

 

[Ignatz Mouse]

I will do a lot better with this movie if I can pretend there was never a comic book character that this is based on.

 

[Matrix]

Now up in pretty quicktime....

HOT!

 

[3phemeral]

I just can't get over that Keanu accent in everything. It's like the man has no variety over his diction.

 

[nomoment]

That Constantine trailer looks incredible. But then again, so did the Daredevil trailer -- and we all know how that turned out.

I'll remain cautiously optimistic.

I thought Daredevil looked pretty silly after the initial teaser. Once they started playing LET THE BODIES HIT THE FLOOR, I knew we were in for a letdown.

Constantine looks entertaining, though.

 

[Mama Smurf]

Looks fucking awesome.

I hadn't even heard of this movie before the thread. Never heard of the comic either.

And Rachel Weisz is indeed stunning.

 

[Kuroyume]

Woah the looked freaking awesome. I thought it was some lame ass gladiator clone because of the name.

 

[Agent Dormer]

Getting to see it free in Feb at school.

 

[ManaByte]

This trailer is basically the 20 minutes of Comic Con footage compressed into a trailer. Not bad though. The 20 minutes they showed looked good, but Warner apparently wants a PG-13 and the Comic Con footage felt more like an R.

Yeah, this is why I think I'll wait for the DVD. I heard the WB executives are determined for a PG-13 rating and I quite frankly don't see a lot of the footage surviving such a cut. So I'm passing on the theatrical run.

gah.. dammit.

am I the only one getting sick to the stomach with movies that clearly are not geared towards a younger audience in any way being cut down to pg-13 to allow that very audience to see it?

What a pile of horse shit.

 

[jetjevons]

I agree. I am SO sick of this PG-13 trend. The Grudge, Alien vs Predator, King Arthur, Chronicles of Riddick, etc. etc. Movies that should be R.

 

[MaverickX9]

Looks like End of Days, but without Ahhnold.

It turned me off when I heard...

"Uhh...cold."

 

[Che]

Can someone explain to me why on earth did that remind me of Eternal Darkness? Anyway it looks like a great film. Keanu Reaves is a genius when choosing action films.

 

[Warm Machine]

I just can't get over that Keanu accent in everything. It's like the man has no variety over his diction.

Someone hasn't seen The Gift.

 

[Willco]

Yeah, Keanu's role in The Gift was a pretty big surprise, because it's probably the only range he's shown as an actor. Maybe that's because the director was SAM RAIMI, though.

 

[Particle Physicist]

Keanu Reaves is a genius when choosing action films.

yeah.. he really is. he really knows how to choose a role.

 

[Gorey]

They want PG13 on that? Bah, I'll wait for the directors cut/DVD release, thanks.

Then again, I'm already irritated that constantine isn't a creepy british guy, so my opinion doesn't count for much.

 

[ManaByte]

Raimi didn't want Keanu in the role. He was basically forced into casting him.

 

[Willco]

Raimi didn't want Keanu in the role. He was basically forced into casting him.

AND HE MADE LEMONADE OUT OF LEMONS.

 

[Duck of Death]

Keanu Reeves was great in River's Edge.

 

[Fresh Prince]

AND HE MADE LEMONADE OUT OF LEMONS.

Your love of Sam Raimi is sickening- wipe yourself up

whoa

 

[Willco]

Don't be so bitter that one man is so gifted, while you are just a peon!

 

[Fresh Prince]

Don't be so bitter that one man is so gifted, while you are just a peon!

'Tis true, all I want is your affection.

 

[3phemeral]

Someone hasn't seen The Gift.

Don't keep my hopes up! Damn it! Now look at what you made me do. You made me jump into my car. You made me walk into a local Blockbuster. You made me select "The Gift" from a myriad of other titles I could have rented -- and look! You're making me pop the DVD into the player while sitting on my couch enjoying a nice warm cup of chamomile tea.. ::shakes fist::

 

[Dead]

Looks pretty good, and its got points in my book for having Djimon Hounsou and of course Rachel Weisz <3

This may turn out to be a surprise, hopefully

and :lol "The 'nu"

 

[Patrick Klepek]

AND HE MADE LEMONADE OUT OF LEMONS.

:lol

 

[Manics]

Ah the great Keanu acting once again is upon us....ugh

 

[hiryu]

I just hope it does the Hellblazer comic justice.

 

[GG-Duo]

Reminds me of the matrix

Terrible acting + cliches + lots of CG = profit.

 

[FortNinety]

As a former hardcore fan of the series, seeing Keanu's horrible acting almost made me literally cry.

 

[Willco]

Did Keanu Reeves even bother to change his wardrobe from The Matrix...

CONSTANTINE OR MR. ANDERSON?

 

[Matrix]

:lol

 

[Tabris]

Why so much hate for Keanu?

I mean sure, he's not really a good actor or anything, but he seems like such a wicked nice person.

So I definitely have more respect for him than most actors.

 

[brooklyngooner]

Omfg Rachel Weisz is so fucking hot. I love her.

I was so glad to read this. I tire of these Lohan/Simpson/insert generic MTV look girl threads all over GAF. She makes my balls warm.

 

[Gorey]

Why so much hate for Keanu?

For my part, it's that..well....Constantine is a creepy, nasty british bastard in the source material. Keanu doesn't...well.....he can try and act like 'teh bad man!!111' but he just comes off as Mr Anderson. For series fans, it's a pretty serious letdown. Perhaps he'll pull it out, but the magic eight ball says 'unlikely'.

The movie tales place in LA. He isn't British in the movie.

 

[BuckRobotron]

Definitely looking good. Keanu Reeves, looks like he'll do a good enough job, if not the ideal choice. Rachel Weisz looks great...as usual. I can't recall her doing an American accent, seemed mostly on target in the trailer.

 

[Iceman]

Keanu Reeves was great in River's Edge.

And in The Gift.
