The fables continue in Hollywood, and with it, a beanstalk. They didn't want it titled, "Jack and The Beanstalk" so they went with "Jack The Giant Killer" instead, because that sounds so much better. Okay, okay, I know it's based off the book of the same name, and pretty much a remake of the 1962 movie. But as a kid we knew it as "Jack and The Beanstalk".
And as far as fable movies go, you may have heard there are 2 different versions of "Snow White" being released in 2012, as if there weren't already plenty of them to begin with. But to each their own.
Watch the trailer below, and tell me what you think? Is it worth the $9 or $11 ticket price? Would you go and see it? For starters it doesn't consist of damn vampires, and it stars cutie, Nicholas Hoult as Jack.
Synopsis:
"Jack the Giant Killer" tells the story of an ancient war that is reignited when a young farmhand unwittinglyopens a gateway between our world and a fearsome race of giants. Unleashed on the Earth for the first time in centuries, the giants strive to reclaim the land they once lost, forcing the young man, Jack, into the battle of his life to stop them. Fighting for a kingdom, its people, and the love of a brave princess, he comes face to face with the unstoppable warriors he thought only existed in legend--and gets the chance to become a legend himself.
So would you see it? That is the question. Honestly, it's been about Wizards and Vampires for who knows how many years now. We have nothing but sparkly vampires (Twilight), vampires falling in love with humans (Twilight, Vampire Diaries, True Blood), Wolves, Witches, and Fairies. When will this phenomenon stop? Oh. I know.
Next August, when they have Zombies taking over our hearts in the movie, "Warm Bodies". No, Really. Nicholas Hoult (Skins, X-men: First Class) will star alongside "I Am Number Four" co-star Teresa Palmer.
AMC already has us feeling bad for "The Walking Dead," and now we have Zombies falling in love, and talking?!?! Really? Zombies don't need talk, they're dead! All they crave are brains, not love! I don't know, the story sounds kinda interesting, but I don't know. I'm still in that, "maybe" stage.
What do you think? Will you be watching this movie? The movie will also star Rob Corddry, John Malkovich, Analeigh Tipton, and the very yummy Dave Franco.
