Never ever heard of this children’s book until the film was announced so no nostalgia factor for me but that trailer has got me curious, i love films that can take you back to your childhood, a simpler time in life lol this looks like it may actually do that. I felt the music worked really well too imo.

I muted the volume on the trailer, and played “Everlong” while watching it. Much better. Created a different feel

Funny, most, if not all, of those movies you listed were pretty damn entertaining. So are you judging a good movie by how much it can make in the box office? Cause I have seen some really shitty movies make a lot of money, and some really great movies make very little.

I think the music worked perfectly, if you listen to the lyrics they talk about how children growing up but still being a kid at heart. I think it really emphasizes the theme of imagination.

Amazing, this trailer put a huge smile on my face.

I’ve been waiting for this movie for some time now, wondering if they were ever going to finish it, hopping that I would get to see it some day.

This book was one of my favorites growing up and I’m so glad to see the movie version will do it justice, at least going by the trailer.

Can’t wait! >_<

@Wise-man Named Bob:

I can’t argue against those movies not being great blockbusters, but it doesn’t mean that some of them are bad movies. The Never Ending Story, Coraline and the Chronicles of Narnia are not failures. Just because the masses don’t flock to see those movies, it doesn’t mean they’re not worth making. On the same note, just because a movie makes a lot of money, doesn’t mean it’s a great movie, either. Independence Day comes to mind.
Another thing to keep in mind is if this movie will tug on the “nostalgia” strings of enough people, it will be a success anyway. I don’t know any fan of the Twilight series of books, young or older, who liked the movie (no offense to people who did like it). However, it made something around $70 million. From the reaction that I’ve been seeing in the forums, people will go see this movie.

Oh another genius who thinks if you narrow down a genre into a one line synopsis means it will fail.

And all those “people die from murderer” movies?
And all those “two people from different social circles fall in love” movies?
And all those “guy can’t get a date comedy” movies?
And all those “big heist movies” movies?
And all those “medieval fantasy epic” movies?

Done to death. No hope there.
