And the Fandom Rejoiced (Sugar Wiki)/Film: Difference between revisions

Ah, film, a global medium. It's certainly provided a number of [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|moments to cheer about]].

----

** The studio tried to pull this off again with ''Revenge of the Fallen'', when they cast [[Frank Welker]] to reprise his role as Soundwave, whose super-processed, artificial-sounding voice was one of the most distinctive in the old cartoon. Then they left out all the processing in the finished film, leaving us with Welker's "[[Inspector Gadget|Dr. Claw]]" voice.

** Then, with Transformers 3, the fanbase was [[Broken Base|split]], as usual, on whether the third film would be like [[Sequelitis|ROTF]]. First, came the announcement (probably faked) that [[The Scrappy|The Twins]] wouldn't return. Then, Bay said that they would get rid of the "humor" that overruled the second film. The big announcement was the reveal of the villain...Shockwave. Cue massive rejoicing.

** Inverted when he was told he wouldn't be [[Winnie the Pooh|Eeyore]] anymore. A sad day indeed.

*** Tempered for [[Winnie the Pooh]] and Pixarfans with the casting of [[Pixar Regulars|Bud Luckey]] .

*** More importantly, for years, Nimoy didn't want to talk about playing Galvatron (it was part of his [[I Am Not Spock]]) phase. He's definitely done a 180 about that.

** Probably the ultimate trump card to play when someone complains that "X is going to be Y" and they don't think it'll work out. Just tell them, "Mr. Mom was Batman? REALLY?" We can argue ad infinitum as to whether Keaton was the "real" Batman or Tim Burton's Batman. The point is, he did something no one expected he could do.

*** Nobody who saw Keaton in ''[[Clean And Sober]]'' had any doubt that Keaton was the man for the job. Pity the ''Batman'' films locked him in a rigid rubber suit and offered him little opportunity to do any actual acting.

*** It has been said that you should never cast an actor to play Batman. Batman is a stunt double in a rubber suit for all anybody actually cares. You cast an actor to pretend to be ''Bruce Wayne'', because ''that'' is the only real "acting" that Batman actually does.

*** Talking of Batman, one should not forget the moment the then upcoming ''Batman Begins'' was announced, with the famous first teaser poster. The franchise had been in limbo for several years after Batman & Robin, and the thought of a new Batman movie was exciting news to every fan.

** Similarly to Micheal Keaton's [[Playing Against Type]], there was an outcry when it was announced that [[Heath Ledger]] would be playing the Joker in ''[[The Dark Knight]]''. Then the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8jqq4j52Fb4 trailer came out] and the theater was filled with the sound of [[Evil Laugh|maniacal laughter]]...

** Also the announcement of the return of Karen Allen as Marion, reuniting the OTP for anybody.

** But then there was that [[Fan Dumb|bit with the fridge]].

** It gets better: [http://www.comicmix.com/news/2008/10/30/tartakovsky-armors-up-for-iron-man-2/ Genndy Tartakovsky storyboarding the action scenes for the sequel.]

** Jon Favreau left after ''Iron Man 2''. Fans only started to believe the third movie would work after Shane Black, of ''[[Lethal Weapon]]'' and ''[[Kiss Kiss Bang Bang]]'' fame, was signed to replace him.

** Aaaaaaaaaaand ''slapped down'' by Anthony Hopkins, who is also a decent casting choice.

*** And [[Kat Dennings]], just because...KatDennings.

** And directed by [[Kenneth Branagh]].

** [[Jackie Earle Haley]] as Rorschach, who heard about it thanks to a fan petition to get him the role.

** In a similar vein, the casting of Imelda Staunton as Dolores Umbridge. Which turned out to be a good omen for her performance in the film.

** Bill Nighy as Scrimgeour in the ''[[Deathly Hallows]]'' films. Is it possible to read the books and ''not'' immediately picture Nighy as Scrimgeour?

** And the score for ''T4'' is being composed by ''[[Danny Elfman]]''. Engaging soundtrack geek [[Squee]] in 3...2...1...

** [http://io9.com/5224631/its-official-arnold-schwarzenegger-will-be-back-in-terminator-salvation This news].

** ''[[Christopher Eccleston]]'' playing the villain [http://img2.timeinc.net/ew/dynamic/imgs/080508/destro_l.jpg Destro] is enough to make fans yell, "[[Doctor Who|Fantastic!!]]"

** They hired Larry Hama, author of the long-running comic book and shaper of the franchise, as creative consultant, and they appear to have listened to his advice.

*** That's the big one. Let's just say that the Joe fanbase would be perfectly fine with ''GI Joe'' being turned into a yaoi storyline as long as they were assured Hama was involved somehow.

* [[Sean Connery]] being cast as Alan Quatermain in the film adaptation of ''[[The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen]]''!? Fuck [[In Name Only|the rest of the movie]]...[[Just Here for Godzilla|he's the reason I'm watching this]]!

** And that, my Troping Friend is what is known as the [[Rule of Sean Connery]]- any movie is automatically cooler because it is Sean F* cking Connery!

*** This is true, even if the movie is ''[[Zardoz]].'' How many people would've watched ''that'' if not for bikini-clad [[Sean Connery]]?

**** [[Everybody Remembers the Stripper|How about the chick feeling herself up in the shower?]]

** ''[[Most Wonderful Sound|Snikt]]''. As soon as the audience heard Wolverine popping his claws at the end of the first trailer, they started to believe...

** What brought up some people's interest was the fact was that the screenplay was done by [[Metal Gear|David "Solid Snake" Hayter]] (who notably ''didn't'' do the screenplay for the [[Sequelitis|third]] film).

** ''X-Men: First Class'' had two announcements to please fans: the return of Bryan Singer (although only producing, he'll be unable to direct) and James McAvoy as young Xavier.

*** And Michael Fassbender as a young Magneto. That?

** And [[Brad Bird]] is directing!

* [[Peter Jackson]]. Guillermo del Toro. ''[[The Hobbit]]''.

** Guillermo is also really in touch with the fanbase- he actually posts on theonering.net message boards.

*** Though [http://www.theonering.net/torwp/2010/05/30/36920-guillermo-del-toro-departs-the-hobbit/ he'll only co-write], since [[Attention Deficit Creator Disorder|he's attached to too many works]] to direct.

** And who's playing Beorn? [[Ron Perlman|Ron Fucking Perlman]]!

** And this just in: [[Martin Freeman]] as Bilbo.

** [[Saoirse Ronan]] as an elven archer. The pervert in me is squeeing.

** The trailer is in. And [[Martin Freeman]] ''[http://www.thehobbit.com/index.html is]'' Bilbo Baggins. World, get ready, 'cause you're about to be hit over the head with ''just how damn good'' this man really is.

** Fans of ''[[Heavenly Creatures]]'' never doubted that Jackson was [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-vUl-1FJ9E the perfect choice].

** He convinced them to make ''how many'' films? For ''how'' much? '''[[Serial Escalation|At once]]?'''

** [[Elijah Wood]] as Frodo Baggins? Forget acting, Elijah Wood, you ''are'' Frodo Baggins! Get him before his eyes grow to normal size! OK, this film ''must'' be made. But Liv Tyler is Arwen! She [[Ruined FOREVER|can't be any good]], surely?

** [[Ian McKellen]] as Gandalf? [[Christopher Lee]] is Saruman? This is getting good!

** "''Stuart Townsend'' as Aragorn? Yes! Oh, crap, he pulled out. Now they'll get this nobody to do it...[[Hilarious in Hindsight|who's this Viggo Mortensen guy?]]

** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w-7x5D3v6jE This: the first trailer]. I remember seeing this in the cinema and thinking: this is going to be awesome.

** And [http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2008/12/24/tron-20-adds-original-castmember-bruce-boxleitner-to-roster/ Bruce Boxleitner] as the program himself? '''''REALLY NIIIIIICE....'''''

** In [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qLIzyI4lafw this YouTube clip from ComicCon 2009], you can clearly hear fans having a religious experience as their walk through Flynn's Arcade ends at...'''an actual lightcycle'''.

** '''<small>[http://www.cinemablend.com/new/Pixar-Writers-Brought-In-To-Work-On-Tron-Legacy-Script-19550.html AND NOW BRAD BIRD AND MICHAEL ARNDT HAVE BEEN BROUGHT TO WORK ON THE SCRIPT.]</small> [[This Is Sparta|YEAH!]]'''

** They shot epilogues for the DVD? THAT MENTIONS THE VIRAL COMPAIGN?! WITH RAM?!?! Pre-ordered now.

** As for the sequel, ''New Moon'', another was pulled off when Dakota Fanning was cast as [[Creepy Child]] vampire Jane.

* ''[[Scott Pilgrim|Scott Pilgrim vs. The World]]''. Michael Cera as the titular [[Playing Against Type|Scott Pilgrim]], yawn. [[Mary Elizabeth Winstead]] playing Ramona Flowers, could be interesting. [[Spaced|Edgar]] [[Shaun of the Dead|Fucking]] [[Hot Fuzz|Wright]] directing the film, SCORE!

** Then the first image from the film was released, involving a [[Incendiary Exponent|flaming]] [[Katanas Are Just Better|katana]] and a backflip. [http://www.edgarwrighthere.com/media/ultraculture.html The internet's response].

** [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WtKAfoIllbo The first trailer has come. Epic Epicness!]

* The live-action adaptation of ''[[Where the Wild Things Are]]''. Hmmm, not really feeling it...wait, you said ''Spike Jonze'' is directing this? And Karen O of the [[Yeah Yeah Yeahs]] is writing the score? ''And the teaser trailer uses a rare acoustic version of '''Arcade Fire's Wake Up?!?''''' Two tickets, please!

** Then there's the promo video in which the book's author Maurice Sendak gushes over how great the film is.

** For many, the [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|Fandom Rejoice]] moment came when they saw the first trailer and saw, holy crap, real puppets instead of 100% CG.

** And they explicitly told [[Uwe Boll]] to go fuck himself when he expressed interest in it. ''DOUBLE YES''.

** [[Divorced Installment|Then came]] [http://popwatch.ew.com/2011/01/14/alien-prequel-prometheus-ridley-scott/ this]. The title of the article says everything.

** How about [[Noomi Rapace]] as the protagonist?

** And [[Keith David]] gets a ''[[Villain Song]]''?!

*** With Randy Newman doing both the score ''and'' the songs, who can't be excited to listen?

** At least some of the fandom rejoiced ''much'' earlier, simply because Disney announced this as their first hand-drawn film since 2004.

** And there was a lot of rejoicing when it was announced that Anika Noni Rose, who stole quite a lot of scenes in the film version of ''[[Dreamgirls]]'', was going to voice the titular princess.

** ''[[Older Than They Think]]''. It was actually based on a series of children's books about mice who lived in the basement of Holmes' building; Basil hero-worshipped Holmes and decided to emulate him.

** They were going to do the entire score for the [[Clash of the Titans]] remake, but after recording 40 minutes of material decided it was too intensive to continue.

* They're making a movie out of ''[[Mamma Mia]]''? Oh God, musicals have just hit a new lo- wait. Did you just say they cast ''[[Meryl Streep]]'' as Donna? Fuck yes!

* Interest in a [[Sequelitis|fourth]] ''[[Pirates of the Caribbean]]'' movie was fairly low until it was revealed it would be a new story ejecting everything apart from [[Johnny Depp]] and Geoffrey Rush, whose awesome-cred had survived the [[Broken Base|third film intact]]. The departure of Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley was mostly welcomed, but not as much as the news that movie would be based on [[Tim Powers]]' book ''On Stranger Tides'' which had inspired both the first Pirates movie and also ''[[The Secret of Monkey Island]]'', which is often heralded as also inspiring the series. There is now much greater interest in the project.

** ''Dead Man's Chest'' deserves a mention. At the end the crew is mourning Jack's death. However the voodoo lady promises that they can resue him if they were willing to meet [[Sequel Hook|at world's end]]. She also mentioned them needing a captain. Enter Barbossa, the first film's [[Big Bad]], walking down the steps, [[Trademark Favorite Food|chomping on an apple]], inquiring what's become of his ship.

** And it's an adaptation of ''[[On Stranger Tides]]'', one of the most influential (and best) pirate books ever written.

* A ''[[Doctor Strange]]'' movie? [[Adaptation Decay|Yeah, cause it worked SO well before...]] Guillermo del Toro you say? Well, I suppose it might be at least ''watchable'' - hold the phone, '''''[[Neil Gaiman]]?''''' ...I think I wet myself.

** So, who's playing him?

** It gets even better if you [[All There in the Manual|read the manual]]. Aside from Jordan Mechner's involvement, who do they get to help with the stunts? [[wikipedia:David Belle|David Belle]], the ''founder of parkour''. If that doesn't equal Epic Win, I don't know what does.

** The movie was released to middling reviews that place it in the [[So Okay It's Average]] territory. [[Broken Base|People are split over whether it's a perfectly decent summer action movie or whether it's a terrible confusing jaunt with an awful script.]] Sadly, this probably ''does'' make it the [[Video Game Movies Suck|best video game movie ever made]] -- or, as some people hope, the best made ''so far''.

* When Games Workshop announced the much-awaited ''[[Warhammer 40000]]'' movie, the fan reaction was generally like "Meh, [[Spotlight-Stealing Squad|Ultramarines]] [[Creator's Pet|again]]...", but then the people heard that [[Dan Abnett]] is going to write the script -- and there was much rejoicing.

** The voice acting talent includes John Hert, Sean Pertwee and ''Terrance Stamp''. Woweee!!

*** Much of the fanbase was quite put down upon seeing the two early trailers featuring less than fantastic CGI and rather bland action. [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6vF_VLZotWc And then this happened...]

** [[The Hangover|Bradley Cooper]] as Face.

** Liam loves it when a plan comes together!

** For me, it was the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=T8W6_0UcQWA teaser trailer] Bradly Cooper's voice just riles me up. And this just goes [[Up to Eleven|over the top]] with action. This film compiles everything vehicles shouldn't be doing, and does it all in the span in one film. Come on, a goddamn [[Tank Goodness]].

* From the start, it was blatantly obvious that the ''[[The Sorcerers Apprentice]] '' movie would be [[In Name Only]]. The trailer reveals {{spoiler|that brooms are still going to come alive!}}

* Richard Coyle is Moist Von Lipwig in Sky One's ''Going Postal''. YES!!!

* They're remaking ''[[Conan the Barbarian 2011]]''? Yaaaawn. Wait, they cast [[Stargate Atlantis|Jason Momoa]] in the title role? Awesome!

** Just to sweeten the deal: for Conan's dad they cast ''fucking [[Ron Perlman]]!!!''

** The latest trailer: Was that a Skrull?

*** [[Chris Evans]] as Steve Rogers has officially fallen into this trope with the [http://popwatch.ew.com/2010/10/28/captain-america-chris-evans-2/ recent Entertainment Weekly article] and, especially, [http://ifanboy.com/content/articles/FIRST_LOOK__Captain_America_Photos_from_Entertainment_Weekly the photos inside].

** And being supervised by the director of Godzilla vs. Hedorah?

** Well, the monster is probably going to look la-[http://www.movieviral.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/gojira_page.jpg HOLY SHIT!] [[And the Fandom Rejoiced|And the fandom wept with joy....]]

** [[David S Goyer]] writing the screenplay is another good sign.

* [[Frankenstein]]. Directed by Guillermo del Toro. With Doug Jones as the [[Frankenstein's Monster|Creature]]. With creature design by Bernie Wrightson. ''HOLY FUCKING SHIT.''

** Disney's doing ''The Haunted Mansion'' ''again''? Didn't you learn your mistake last--GUILLERMO DEL TORO! Let's face it, he makes everything better.

** Hmm, let's see...''Guillermo Del Toro!'' Your film is now [[Memetic Mutation|diamonds]]. It works!

* [[Pixar Regulars|Lee Unkrich]], you had all of us at '''[[Toy Story|Toy Story 3]]'''.

** The threequel got yanked from Disney's direct-to-video departments? Yeee-hah!

** Subverted by many Nightmare fans, however. Only Robert Englund can properly be Freddy.

* They're making a remake of ''[[The Karate Kid]]'' what are they doing that f--[[Jackie Chan]] is in it?!

* Wait, an ''[[Atlas Shrugged]]'' film adaptation! Oh cool! Oh nevermind it's just some rich kid indie work, and Paul Johansson is John Galt? It just gets worse. But wait! They cast Ethan Cohn and are splitting it into two parts! There's hope!

* [[Superman Returns|The last Superman movie]] wasn't great. The sequel languished in [[Development Hell]], and at a certain point the studio decided to turn into a [[Darker and Edgier]] reboot. Then [[Zack Snyder]] was confirmed as the director...

** Aided by the fact that [[Christopher Nolan]] was producing and fan favorite Henry Cavill has now been cast as the Man of Steel. You will believe once again that a man can fly.

* After the lackluster performance of Prince Caspian at the box office (compared to the first film), there was doubt that the ''[[Chronicles of Narnia]]'' film series would continue, despite that Prince Caspian being one of the less popular entries in the series. Disney lost faith in the series and ended their involvement with Walden Media, leaving fans to speculate if another studio would pick them up. Then Fox swooped in, gave new hope to the series, and promptly delivered a mind-blowing trailer for ''Voyage of the Dawn Treader'', a near-universal fan favorite.

** Also for many, [[Liam Neeson]] and [[Tilda Swinton]] as Aslan and the White Witch, respectively. And holy crap!? [[Eddie Izzard]] voicing Reepicheep?! Unfortunately, Izzard won't be reprising the role, but Simon Pegg will be replacing him and may be just as awesome.

** Uh--Wow, [[Funny Aneurysm Moment|did that go sour!]]

** Hey what's this Slashfilm article? [http://www.slashfilm.com/harrison-ford-actors-sought-enders-game/ Harrison] [[Precision F-Strike|FUCKING]] [http://www.slashfilm.com/harrison-ford-actors-sought-enders-game/ Ford] is playing GRAFF? Meh, I'm still not sure about it.

** [[Merlin|Mordred]] was cast as Ender!? YES!!!!

* Marvel's ''[[Runaways]]'' film was met with the normal amounts of trepidation. However when the casting notices failed to mention that Nico was Asian American you could almost here the collective fandom about to draw breath to scream. However, before they could Marvel issued another press release specifically stating that they were looking for an Asian American actress and the press release would be adjusted accordingly. This not only gave the fandom the idea that Marvel were trying to stay true to the original comic but [[The Last Airbender|it wouldn't be a repeat of other recent adaptaions]].

* It's been three years since the release of ''[[Grindhouse]]''. Not our fault that it failed in the box office since the Weinsteins released it on of all times, ''Easter''. [[It Got Worse|But then]] [[Executive Meddling|they had to]] [[Bad Export for You|split the two movies up in the rest of the world (without the trailers between movies)]] and [[Re Cut|on the Region 1]] home video releases (AGAIN, without the trailers between movies), [[Insane Troll Logic|destroying the reason why]] [[Robert Rodriguez|Rodriguez]] and [[Quentin Tarantino|Tarantino]] [[George Lucas Throwback|made it the first place!!]] Unless you have the money for the [[Limited Special Collectors Ultimate Edition|Deluxe Edition]] [[No Export for You|only released in Japan]], there's no way you can enjoy the original three-hour theatrical version of Grind...what's this about a [[DVD Bonus Content|"Don't" commentary]] [[Edgar Wright|Edgar]]? ''Grindhouse'' on Blu-ray? The theatrical cut on DVD and Blu-ray?! '''With ALL the fake trailers?!!!''' <ref>Plus the "Hobo With A Shotgun" trailer on Blu-ray</ref>. '''ALL IS FORGIVEN!!'''

** After four movies of being absent, {{spoiler|Leon Kennedy and Ada Wong}} were announced for the fifth movie.

** [[Fringe|Jared Harris]] as Professor Moriarty? Very unexpected, but not a bad choice at all.

** And [[Noomi Rapace]] as...someone...

* ''[[Bill and Ted]] 3''. [[Keanu Reeves]] and Alex Winter will be returning as Bill and Ted, with the original creator/writer duo of Chris Matheson and Ed Solomon as well. To further cement things, in an interview Winter said that the movie will retain the spirit of the originals without giving into "retro cynicism".

* They're finally making ''[[Rent]]'' into a movie? They'll ruin it, I'm sure...wait, WITH ALMOST THE ENTIRE ORIGINAL CAST?

** And [http://www.joblo.com/arrow/index.php?id=26044 this international trailer] seems to have gotten the fans pretty pumped, judging by the comments.

** Not only that, besides just having Bane as the villain, the movie is based on ''[[Knightfall]]'', and in fact was called that before [[Executive Meddling|the studio balked]]. Who knows? Maybe Nolan will pull a ''[[Return of the Jedi]]'', and change it back at the last minute?

** As of February 4th, 2011, Joseph Gordon-Levitt [http://www.deadline.com/2011/02/joseph-gordon-levitt-in-talks-to-join-the-dark-knight-rises/ is officially in contract negotiations for an unknown role.]

* [[Steven Spielberg]] announced in mid-2011 that a fourth ''[[Jurassic Park]]'' film will be made.

* The 25th anniversary of ''[[Back to The Future]]'' brought not only remastered Blu-Ray versions of the movie and its sequels, but a video game follow-up starring [[Christopher Lloyd]], and theatrical re-releases of the movie. Great Scott!

* Oooh, sweet, they're making a film version of ''[[Les Misérables]]'' the musical! With Cameron Mackintosh producing and Tom Hooper directing! Fantastic! And hey, [[Hugh Jackman]] is playing Jean Valjean. That could work! And [[Russell Crowe]] as Inspector Javert. Well, that will either go very well or very badly. [[Anne Hathaway]] as Fantine - wonderful! But nothing too spine-tingling yet...wait, '''[[Helena Bonham Carter]]''' as Mme. Thenardier??? YES PLEASE!!!

** I'm sorry, did you just say ''Colm Wilkinson'' (the original Valjean) is going to play the Bishop? BEST. CAMEO. ''EVER.''

*** This reaction was particularly pronounced because the earlier rumor of [[Taylor Swift]] had a lot of fans crying [[Ruined FOREVER]]. Then Barks was confirmed, and you could hear the thump of the ''Les Mis'' fanbase collectively hitting their knees and thanking their respective deities. (Lea Salonga's exact words were, "Thank the casting gods!!" Salonga is one of two contenders for Greatest Eponine Ever.)

** Hadley Fraser as the Loudhailer has also gotten a pretty positive reception, to say the least.

** Aaaaaaaaaaand that seems to have fallen through. Wonder who's going to be repl- [[Benedict Cumberbatch|BENEDICT FUCKING CUMBERBATCH]] [http://trekmovie.com/2012/01/04/exclusive-sherlock-star-benedict-cumberbatch-cast-in-major-star-trek-sequel-role/ AS THE VILLAIN]!?

** [http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2012/02/24/star-trek-2-photo-benedict-cumberbatch-zachary-quinto/ AND NOW WE HAVE SET PHOTOS!! ] I have never seen Tumblr go that batshit before. AND WE STILL DON'T EVEN KNOW WHO HE IS.

** And now, ''there's a SEQUEL''!!! HUZZAH!

* Gah, a Spider-Man reboot? Enough already Hollywood! Wait...the Lizard is the villain? FREAKIN' FINALLY!

** And a wise-cracking Spidey! ABOUT FREAKIN' TIME!!!

** ...it's about the whole Video Games medium, and not a licensed movie? Cool!

*** ...it's about an 8-bit era character experiencing the modern-day game industry? Great! And the fact that [[Take That|the modern-day games are represented by a first-person-shooter]] is further evidence that [[Shown Their Work|someone's doing some homework]].

** ...[[Pixar|John effin' Lasseter]] is directing? ''Awesome!''

*** [http://segabits.com/blog/2012/04/25/confirmed-eggman-to-cameo-in-disneys-wreck-it-ralph/ Eggman is confirmed?!?] (cue the Sonic fandom [[Broken Base|reuniting]] and wetting themselves in excitement)

** And then came the first [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GHDQHVkYq4g trailer.] Disney's been [[Genre Savvy]] enough to include the [[One-Scene Wonder]] that the Villain Support Group is quickly building up to be. To quote a [[YouTube]] commenter<ref> from another uploaded version of the same trailer</ref>, "I GEEKED OUT COMPLETELY AT THE VILLAINS SCENE". If the movie wasn't hyped enough already, the physical faithfulness of Bowser's and Eggman's portrayals in the movie was more than enough to make said hype ''skyrocket''. Disney isn't messing around with this movie.

** Wow, [http://themadbutcher.deviantart.com/#/d4uf9mm this] is a pretty cool fan-made poster of Moretz as Carrie. Kimberly Peirce [http://www.horror-movies.ca/2012/04/fan-made-carrie-poster-attracts-directors-attention/ likes it too]? Even cooler! Looks like she knows what she's doing.

* Why is [[Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy|Ron Burgundy]] making a random appearance on Conan? To anounce a sequel after 8 years? ''Great. Odin's. Raven.''

** This troper, however, knows someone whose reaction was more like this: "THERE'S GOING TO BE A FILM BASED ON A SHOW I USED TO WATCH?! [[Squee]]"

* So they're making an ''[[Expendables]]'' sequel? Cool, who's joining? [[Chuck Norris]]? [[Jean Claude Van Damme]]? Excellent... wait, was that [[Arnold Schwarzenegger|Arnold]] firing a gun? ''ARNOLD'S BACK!''
