Constantine - First teaser trailer

[Despair]

Well, All I know that this movie is based on graphic novel series Hellblazer, and as the case with many other comic to film translations fans might not be happy with the results. I havent read the original, so I cant judge the trailer based on that yet, but it looked ok, I guess.

But after Matrix, its funny to see Keanu, since you keep expecting Agent Smith to pop up as well

One of the key aspects of the Hellblazer is he's a Brit. That and his trenchcoat. The studio screwed this movie over by choosing the person with the least amount of talent in Hollywood for the main role. It has no chance of being remotely connect to the comics and I'd also say it has no chance of being remotely good. I can't even bring myself to watch the trailer.

I agree with Amm. This movie will suck my balls.

Looks great!

[stormy]

trailer looks like it could go either way.

this line was awful
"I don't believe in the Devil."
"You should, he believes in you."

[Mzo]

They already screwed up Moore's League of Extraordinary Gentlemen... John Constantine is another of his creations, this one from his now legendary run on Swamp Thing.

They BETTER not fuck this up. And I agree with what Amm said.

Yes, this is the movie I've been crying about for the last year.

Never have so many people gone so out of their way to fuck up the work of so few.

They BETTER not fuck this up. And I agree with what Amm said.

Dude, they've only so far, set the movie in america instead of london, cast keanu reeves, and I think changed the sickness from lung cancer to brain cancer.

Their doing just fine.



*after forcing myself to watch this*

John "GilesfromBuffy" Constantine.

It feels like something Joss Whedon would have made. Sad thing is I'd like it a lot if they'd just take the Hellblazer thing away from it. Goddammit. Biggest waste of a comic book backstory EVER.

??????????????

That would make NO sense...

Wait, so does the movie include parts of the Dangerous Habits storyline? The arc on its own would be excellent.

[youandwhosearmy]

I don't know. i'm only telling you from what was up at aintitcoolnews after someone reviewed the script.

I personally, and have been saying for like the last six months, think that dangerous habits could have been the storyline t bridge "comic book movie" with "serious movie"


But to hell with me I guess.

The scene with the Devil and Constantine in his friend's wine cellar would be delicious... but not with Reeves. Dear god, not with Reeves.
