Default OT: The Book of Eli

Anyone seen the trailers for this post apocalyptic movie starring Denzel Washington, Gary Oldman and Mila Kunis?

Comes out next week, looks pretty good.

Looks interesting. I have a feeling that I'm either going to really like or really hate it.

Probably have to go to a matinee with the lads or on my own. I don't think the wife is going to want to go.

Didn't someone post a trailer for this film on the forum a month or two ago? I'm looking forward to it coming out. Looks interesting.

I've seen the trailer and it looks pretty good. I'm in the same boat though...willl probably end up having to wait for the DVD as I don't think my other half will fancy it....ditto for The Road which comes out here next week.

Targan, it's possible that someone posted the trailer previously.

I'm probably in the same boat as Raellus and Rainbow Six, my SO probably wouldn't like this type of movie. Too dark and depressing for her.

It looks very good from the previews but I have some reservations.
One of my friends told me that the guy who wrote it was a writer for one of those computer gaming magazines when Fallout and Fallout 2 were around and he was very much a fan of them.
If he wrote The Book of Eli to try and recapture Fallout, it could end up being a real stinker.

I'll see it eventually, but I don't go to theaters anymore. I have a really good cable package, and I don't have to worry about loud talkers, screaming children, jerkoffs kicking the back of my chair...but I'll see it eventually. It looks interesting.

Wouldn't it be interesting if the book that Eli has is really a Playboy magazine?
