Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (David Fincher!)
i have been looking forward to this film more than any other this year. i will be seeing it on Christmas day with the boyfriend, and i hope it doesn't disappoint.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (David Fincher!)
Anybody notice the backwards writing on the posters?
"When we live, time goes backwards. But life must go forward." |

^^^
thats the quote from the short story. the film quotes it a little differnt though. |
Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (David Fincher!)
anyone that hasn't read the short story it is based on, i heartily recommend that you do. it's amazing, and depressing.
|
Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (David Fincher!)
yes. but it is loosely based isn't it?
|
Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (David Fincher!)
everytime i see a preview for this, i get more excited to see it. i showed the preview to the husband yesterday while online...he is now wanting to see it too!!! this looks like brad pitt's finest work....
i saw the movie posters yday in person and they aren't the usual paper material. they were on fabric--thats what it felt like!! so unusual but eye catching to say the least!!! |

Both posters are ugly. That's the point, I think.
It was incredibly expensive ($167m); over three hours. There's no chance it'll make a decent return. |

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (David Fincher!)
I don't like the posters?
The backward writing is interesting, but the pics of the stars seems rather boring to me. I predict a big hit, with much talk in the media... |
Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (David Fincher!)
I think that this movie looks like the straight-up balls and it definitely feels like the perfect film for a quaint little family to take in on Christmas Day. Sometimes it almost seems like those wacky distributors and studio suits actually know what they're doing. I'm pretty sure that, especially considering the obvious dearth of big-time Oscar bait type movies, Benjamin Button is the flick that'll finally give David Fincher the orgy of Academy Awards he so very much deserves.
I just saw a really crazy good trailer for it on TV, but I can't find it anywhere online. You MoFo's will just have to take my word for it when I say how great it was. It was great. |

Yeah I haven't been able to see the prescreening for this film, yet it does look good. Also I like the idea of the story concept . If it did cost 167 million to make that is a big number to overcome to make a good profit. Hopefully worldwide it will do well at the box office.

I'm really looking forward to this. It looks great.

Re: The Curious Case of Benjamin Button (David Fincher!)
Even after Zodiac I'm very doubtful of this movie. The trailer has a very cold absence of emotion. Then again , I'm sure the trailer wasn't directed by David Fincher.
