trailer reactions
T2
Loved the first one, but I think this one is trying too hard. Also, what is it with trailers showing you so much of the film?
Why the fuck are they calling this T2.
Fucking Danny Boyle what a fucking faggot.
choose life

and choose watcing history repeat itself

and then take a deep breath
you're an addixct so be addicted just be addicted to something else choose the ones you love choose your future
choose life
film looks comfy as fuck
T2 is a stupid title that makes me think terminator
But Danny Boyle is a fucking genius so I trust him
Trailer didn't really have the magic of the original but wasn't bad by any stretch, my real concern is that Sony is involved.
They probably needed Sony for the Money or something, who funded the original? Why? Are Sony a bad film producer? I thought the trailer was compelling, but the speech delivery was flat , poor choice of using the original lager lager lager tune as well should have been death grips
Sony is terrible, yes, they have an inverted Midas Touch
fuck. fuck fuc k
>DUDE FACEBOOK AND SMARTPHONES ARE EVIL YOU'RE WASTING YOUR LIFE LMAO
This shit is so hackneyed
>its a millennial gets triggered episode
wew lad
Why cinematography looks so fucking cheap
Like it's some fucking tv drama show
Jesus, say what you want about film hipsters but celluloid sure as fuck concealed most of dp fuckups by it's specific rendering
i keep calling it terminator 2, i can't help it.
I've watched the original over 20 times and I still think its stupid they're making a sequel
It didn't fucking need a sequel. The trailer has my hopes up, but it looks like they're using way too many iconic shots/callbacks to the original
Also apparently "T:2" will only be partially based on Porno, which is good. Because Porno was aight, but it wasn't literature-kino like Trainspotting the book. If they did a straight adaption of Porno it would be a mediocre film at best.
Does anyone have the bane edit of the choose speech picture? Always makes me kek
Yeah. Trainspotting film and trainspotting book were not much like each other.
So the film of Porno stands a better chance (have I got this right? I thought they'd made the Porno film already)
>T2
>Trainspoting
Holy hell! I'm vomiting my liver here.
Off the top of my head, in the last year or so they were betting heavily on Pixels and Ghostbusters, and both performed well below expectations.
They haven't put out a good movie I can remember in the last two years. But, mind you, SOE have trouble is a recent, hip topic that bloggers are picking up on.
the whole ghostbusters thing, If I was the exec I wouldn't be as bothered with it's under-performance but more with how well it could jump start the franchise for future sequels. They should do one every year or two, like a serial. It seems the way that Cinema is heading. I would like to see the next ghostbusters instalment next spring. Chop chop.
I think if sony could communicate itself as a high quality compatible modern music film and electronic entertainment maker in the home in a cohesive manner it could make sense to an audience that has seen a once simple market shattered into many disparate confusing shards.
they should have dropped Ewan and got Shane Rithcie or something
>it's
fucks sake
>tfw Born Slippy starts playing
this
;_;
Fugg, why that makes me so sad
Anybody can tell meg why the original become such a cult classic? Everyone I know loves it too. I watched it, sure, it was a good movie, I just what's so special about it
>cult classic
user. It was a classic on release.
One can hope the film will be good and save us from our sins...
fucking bomb along with all the people the original sucked up with it
All I see are callbacks to the original. I don't need to waste 2 hours being reminded of a better film. Pass.
>Why cinematography looks so fucking cheap
I was wondering this too, it looks a lot like a student film. The original never looked this shit, and it doesn't even have a quarter of the budget inflated.
shouldn't Begbie kill Renton at the first sight?
I will hazard a guess that given the passage of time, they've all come full circle and are back to being bros, and all the trouble from their past has been resolved.
...
Sony turns to gold everytime it touches something?
I hope this doesn't suck huge cocks.
Its set in scotland, so if it sucks cocks, they'll all be pretty small
>Lasseh got glassd so no cunt leaves 'ere til we find oo wot cunt deddah
>And who the fack are you?
>AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
We need more Begbies. And less fukken shitquels.
Can you imagine Midas havin a wank?
It didnt work like that

Why the hell do they still have the same chairs 20 years later?
user, when was the last time you visited your grandparents?
There are way too many references to the original. I hope it is just to hype up the trailer and the movie is not full of "lol remember this" moments.
An absurd amount of memorable scenes, like Renton going inside the WC, the mountain hike, Begbie's pool story, the carpet scene, Renton's withdrawal, etc. The characters are flawed, but compelling and realistic at the same time. Fast pace with properly made jokes. Constant tonal shifts between humor and drama. Great music that sticks.
Honestly it deserves all the praise it gets.
This makes me want to rewatch the original
it's on film-four tonight, to coincide with the trailer, it's co-ordinated marketing
>The characters are flawed,
characters are total scum. waht?
>tired social commentary
It seems like this would have been relevant 5, 10 years ago before everyone and their dog was shitting on facebook
Because they're English made, now go get your 15th set of Chinese chairs like a good consumer
...
>facebook
Porno didn't have any grasp of social media, it only just about got a mobile phone reference in. I'd pity the screen writter
still, when Porno was published most people in the UK didn't have internet and if they did it was 28k dial -up
kkkkkkkkkkkkktttttttzzzzkkkkkkkkkkkk tic tic tic kkkkkkkkk
we had to wait ages to see those tities
Is that a joke about it being cold there, or just a random 'haha small dix lol' joke? Because I've never heard that stereotype.
Because the whole point of the film is that life is meaningless and no matter how hard you try you'll probably always be who you are, what you are and where you are.
that's another problem for the film. Porno has the making of pornography in the plot,
the world of pornographers was taken to pieces by free porn made by your sister in the carpark . the film probably won't make any sense whatsoever
I always thought it was "screw these people do your own thing"
That's why it's only loosely based on Porno. It wouldn't make sense to release a sequel in 2016 but base the setting on a novel set in 2002.
think it looks shit Tbh
Kind of, yeah. It's more, "Screw society do your own thing". And you can either interpret that as a virtue or a vice. The characters are all poetic and intelligent in a way, but they're also scumbags who can't always face up to their own shitty behaviours.
yeah but I can't imagine the writers had any grasp on what the world is actually like when they came to up date it, so , large parts of the plot will be a load of knackers.
>Tbh
Thanks for being honest. A lot of people like to lie about their inane opinions.
>who can't always face up to their own shitty behaviours
why should they? do as they please
no worries
They can fuck themselves up as much as they please but it isn't just self-harm. I mean, Renton stole from his mates, put his parents through hell, ruined Tommy's life until he ended up dying from the heroin use. But he almost never has any remorse because he sees himself as an outsider (which he is) but he believes that his 'outsider' status also extends to morals. He's sees himself as exempt.
I get what you're saying but, really, the vast majority of people in the world who know what Facebook is still think it's great. I know it's hardly edgy or new to say social media is cancer to you or me (or most people on this website) but for the general public, to suggest that Facebook isn't important or even good is actually a big deal.
There are literally hundreds of millions of people in the world who get a sense of self-worth from social media.
>to suggest that Facebook isn't important or even good is actually a big deal
It's like saying that mcdonalds is shit food. We all already know but do it anyway, and the people who don't know don't give a shit
Damn...
He doesn't see him till the end then gets hit by a car when he goes after him
i'm glad sickboy is back; i always imagined such a tragic end for him, that he would have died long ago
-posted from my ipone
He was already so far gone that Tommy and his baby dying probably looped him back full circle to normal again
Dunno. ........nah not really, that's not what was going on
Amazing cinematography, as expected from the great Anthony Dod Mantle.
You are both idiots and don't know what you are talking about.
It's gonna blow ass just like Anchorman 2 did. You guys are a bunch of nostalgia fags.
DUDE
HEROIN
LMAO
Didn't want to feel this feel
>The people who don't know don't give a shit
Well, most people who hate Facebook are people who, at one time, thought they liked it. And then it gets pointed out to them how stupid it is and they stop using it.
The Facebook/McDonalds analogy is weak, too. Disliking Facebook is a counter-cultural opinion. Even though it might not seem counter-cultural to you or me, in our circles, it really is, in the wider scheme of things. Whereas disliking McDonalds food isn't an intellectual reaction. It's just taste and nothing more.
Spud confirmed kill
tfw
You don't understand. The film has literally nothing to do with porno. It only takes little bits of the novel as inspiration, like Sick Boy owning a pub.
I bet he's gonna redeem himself, somehow. I think the main focus of the movie is on him and Spud.
New film isn't based on Porno?
Don't get why everyone thinks it'll just be nostalgiashit.
Looks pretty different. Less concentrated on drugs, more concentrated on the characters' relationships.
The first doesn't get to the broader "look at your goddamn life" until the last act. Looks like T2 pretty much starts there.
Of course, this is all based on a fucking trailer, so what do we know?
>wtf why are they doing another, sellouts
They always planned to do a sequel 20 years later.
MEGA MEGA WHITE THING MEGA MEGA WHITE THING
SHOUTING LAGER LAGER LAGER
Who, exactly, is selling out? They've been talking about a sequel since the start of the century but Boyle and the cast refused to do it unless the script was of a high enough quality. I get that pretentious film fags are going to shit on this before it's even released just because it has a high budget compared to 'Trainspotting' but it' not as if they're making a fucking PG-13 movie.
THERE'S LOVE, THERE IS A SAVIOR
THAT AIN'T NO LOVE OF MINE
According to who? Because Danny Boyle and Ewan McGreggor have hated each other for the longest time and only buried the hatchet recently.
Yeah, there were murmurings around 2002-2003 when the novel 'Porno' came out but no-one was on board. Hence why, now, that they are making a part two it's only loosely based on that novel, but overall an extrapolated 2016 version.
>sellouts
There is violence, hard drug use, nudity/sex and attempted suicide in the trailer. It seems like their sticking to their guns.
*they're
Maybe I should be the one attempting suicide.
...
Very true. It kind of has that feel of, "Let's return to the bad old ways once more then we'll get our lives back" motif. Which is actually a great analogy for addicts. Like in 'Blow' when he decides to do one more big deal so that he can afford to quit the game and look after his daughter. But, of course, it brings on more trouble than he bargained for. It seems like T2 is going to be a similar premise. Let's do something fucked-up and life-ruining and after that we'll be fine.
Like you said, though, this is pure conjecture for now.
Anyone who eats McDonalds everyday knows it is killing them. Most people who use Facebook (or any social media) every day don't know that it is ruining them. They start doing it because everyone else does; and they keep using it because they become reliant on the false sense of importance and self-worth they gain from it. Of course, they don't realise that the joy they feel from getting retweeted or 'liked' is fake, meaningless and a waste of a life. But they get addicted to it. And, since the only damage is psychological, they don't realise it. As opposed to being addicted to fast food. It's impossible not to notice the effects it has.
That's the whole point of that monologue. Everyone is an addict. We're all addicted to meaningless stuff that isn't real. Hence the line, "You're an addict. You just need to be addicted to something else". Choose life, and all that. The writer didn't just include the social media shit as a modern cultural reference. There is a lot of substance behind it.
>Doesn't see the tongue-in-cheek humor of the name T2
>Based on the sequel of the book the first movie was based on
>get mad as fuck about the name T2 and making a sequel
most of Sup Forums is fucking retarded. Following heroin addicts in their middle age will be just as interesting as coping with heroin addiction in your 20s.
I don't know if they're actually retarded. There seems to be a lot of hipster pretence and teenage edginess in this thread, though.
People are frightened that what made them cool and chic in '96 (i.e Being a fan of a low-budget, highly literary film about Scottish junkies) is not that unique and counter-cultural as it was anymore. In 2016, liking a film about hard-drugs and outsiders isn't that subversive.
Now that Boyle and most of the cast are really well-known, a lot of mainstream cinema goers will watch and enjoy that film - hence the hipster mentality (as seen in this thread) of, "It's shit now. I only liked it before everyone else started liking it".
member trainspotting?
“By definition, you have to live until you die. Better to make that life as complete and enjoyable an experience as possible, in case death is shite, which I suspect it will be.”
This is retarded.
Star Wars comes out.
>guys, look, all this stuff I remember, so cool!
South Park comes out
>guys, look, isn't nostalgia dumb?
You're all slaves to whatever fucking trend is popular at any particular moment. You have no personality or opinions beyond what pop culture broadcasts because people who are smarter than you are making points you never could, but you don't know how to sort which of their opinions you do or don't want because one day later there will always be a new thing to believe in, like you're some sort of nouveau-cultural fucking savant. You have no principles.
