looking forward to this with bated breath

Night killed the potential for good Airbender movies for a long time. I heavily dislike him for that.

Smith was WILDLY inappropriate for a remake of The Karate Kid which featured Jackie Chan. I heavily dislike him for that.

Dunno who Whitta is except he posts here and wrote for Eli.

BOOOOOOOOOOOO

 

[Soda]

It would be entirely awesome if Whitta snuck in a "what a twist" joke just for us gaffers

 

[Dead]

trololol: the movie

day 1

 

[brandonh83]

The Smiths? Well, that's all it took, I'm out.

 

[Napoleonthechimp]

If it wasn't for Will Smith then I'd suggest we were witnessing the death of Whitta's career. However we may still be witnessing the last death throes of Shyamalan's career... unless he and Whitta are one and the same.

This movie will make bank.

Karate Kid was okay. Have you seen it?

 

[Kosmo]

Why gary why!!!!!!!!!!!

LOL, GAF's head explodes.

What other conundrums can we come up with? "Obama announces 2012 re-election campaign, chooses Dick Cheney to replace Biden as VP."

M. Night Shamalamadingdong destroys yet another burgeoning career. R.I.P. Gary. Your writing will be missed.

What if Gary saves DingDong?

 

[e_i]

Shyamalan should just stop doing anything in movies/tv/etc. He should find something else to do. I've heard McDonald's is hiring.

Will Smith's presence alone will ensure that this movie makes some serious dough

That would be a twist...

The story takes place far in the future where a young boy has to navigate an abandoned planet on a space ship that has crashed. On board is his estranged father.

The "future" is actually the past, the father is really the son, and the son is actually the ship.

 

[clav]

Are there any NeoGAF references in the script?

Will Smith's presence alone will ensure that this movie makes some serious dough

and if the movie doesn't suck, Gary will have work for a long time. Working with Will is a big deal, considering how big Overbrook Ent. is now.

 

[Seda]

That would be a twist...

dammit i was gonna say this lol

 

[ultron87]

Hopefully the father shoots himself in the foot and has to go ly down. The son them feeds him pizza to fix it.

And then the ship flies into the nearest sun.

 

[aesop]

I don't know if I wanna see Will Smith riding his son around a barren planet.

 

[AgentChris]

I just imagine Shymalan watching Book of Eli, and then when the awful twist comes he jumps out of his seat and yells "GET ME THIS WRITER!"

I know I'm late but.

 

[brotkasten]

M. Night Shamalamadingdong destroys yet another burgeoning career. R.I.P. Jaden.

Now that's what I'm hoping for.

 

[alphaNoid]

I'm in LA area, PM for red carpet invite?

 

[JoeBoy101]

If a miracle happens and the movie is good, this'll make a good redemption meme picture.

 

[WillyFive]

Karate Kid was okay. Have you seen it?

Yeah, the kid was great.

Have Jaden writing a girl-age thread

 

[Shao Kahn Brewing a Stew]

This thread... This fucking thread! :lol

 

[mr jones]

M Night's name on this movie makes me want to avoid it.

But I haven't seen too many films with Will Smith that I didn't like.

But I wasn't a fan of Book of Eli, either (with the exception of the first fight scene, which was visceral and intense).

I.... I dunno. I'm torn.

 

[Iceman]

I'm in LA area, PM for red carpet invite?

me three.

But with Shyamalan doing this.. wouldn't his red carpet be in Philadelphia?

 

[mclaren777]

I wonder if Gary will comment on this project in here.

You didn't like the cannibal's house getting blown all to hell with a gatling gun?

I wonder if Gary will comment on this project in here.

Odds are WAY against that happening. Especially with Shyamalan involved. He's super secretive. Probably threatened Whitta at gun point not to breath a word.

 

[Big Baybee]

Just watched Karate Kid on Netflix last night. It was a really good movie. Wasn't expecting that. But was there a reason why they kept the title "Karate" Kid?

:lol :lol :lol :lol

GARY MAKE THIS HAPPEN

 

[Technosteve]

Please be better then the happening, but not so good that me and my friends can't endlessly mock it and dub over the dialog with our own script.

 

[Arrowgigantic]

What a Bible written in Braille actually looks like. No, those are not 33 copies. That is one Bible.

 

[Xal-Shoota]

A winning combination....
Surely, nothing could go wrong with this!
But its just missing one thing...

 

[jetjevons]

Gary's is a fantastic writer with a killer imagintation. I'd wait till you hear a little more before bringing the lulz.

 

[Tawney Bomb]

I'm hoping the best for Gary, but....wow...

 

[jetjevons]

Did you see that bit in Back to the Future where the guy went back in time. That was SOOO unrealistic. Totally spoiled the movie for me.

Spoiler

Eli memorized the bible. Probably from his iPod. Maybe he was just carrying one of the 33 braille books.

That's only cause their using an old revision of braille.

 

[Stabby McSter]

Starring Will Smith from Tested.

this would be awesome

 

[megateto]

Maybe not, but he's sure reading the thread.

Enhorabuena, Gary!!!

 

[Mononofu]

Tears are literally streaming down my faces as I read this thread. Thank you NeoGaf for making my day so much better lol.

 

[PushTheButtonMax]

Just watched Karate Kid on Netflix last night. It was a really good movie. Wasn't expecting that. But was there a reason why they kept the title "Karate" Kid?

There was some throwaway line that Jaden said about his uncle teaching him some basic Karate techniques. That's why you see him take some kind of fighting stance the first time he has a run in with that little brat.

 

[ChocolateCupcakes]

Wow, this thread.

But I thought the twist in The Book of Eli was decent so I'm cautiously optimistic about this. And the Karate Kid was overall, decent, so Jayden starring in it isn't a huge worry for me.
