Silent Member Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 It's definitely top of the list of films I'm looking forward to, not that there's much else there, but man, I have high hopes for this film. Best film I've never seen. *goes to imdb and rates it ten stars* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Squee Posted December 12, 2012 Share Posted December 12, 2012 They can push back Gravity to 2015 for all I care. As long as it's going to live up to my expectations. Alfonso Cuarón making a movie set in space. Almost sounds too good to be true. And it's going to be a looooooong movie as far as I remember. Perfect!

Silent Member Posted December 14, 2012 Share Posted December 14, 2012 So apparently M83 is doing the entire soundtrack to Oblivion, for some reason that makes me somwhat excited to see the film. What?! I don't even care about M83, but I guess it proves they have some faint trace of ambition and willingness to think outside the box, no?

joshuatxuk Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 A song from the soundtrack is now streaming, sounds appropriately epic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zaphod Posted March 8, 2013 Share Posted March 8, 2013 i like how the trailer assumes foreknowledge of the film's characters and situations through a series of low bass rumbles and flashes of people's faces. it's like these things are being designed to snap an audience out of perpetual boredom. "oh my god, things. tom cruise. blackness. stuff. what was that? Booooooorrrmppphhh". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While my earlier prediction wasn't far off, its actually a pretty good film. Solid Sci-fi premises, solid acting, amazing scenery, good production and sound design. There are a few action sequences that are a bit too hollywoody, and its a little long, but there are a lot of cool moments and its fairly unpatronising in the way it deals with the sci-fi elements. Some reviewers have complained that its too serious and there's no light relief. I actually think this is a good thing. People are now familiar enough with Sci-Fi that we can have a big budget sci-fi movie with major stars in it that doesn't need light relief like comedy robots, nudge-nudge-wink-wink jokes comparing the future to the present, or anthopomorphised aliens that hang out in bars and play wind instruments. This is a mainstream sci-fi movie that doesn't over explain things and isn't afraid to take itself seriously. There actually aren't many sci-fi movies that can claim that. 8/10 worth going to see on a big screen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

soundwave Posted April 10, 2013 Share Posted April 10, 2013 It has the same director as Tron Legacy who really has an eye for the visual so I've booked my centre seated premier IMAX tickets for Friday and gonna sneak a half tab of acid on the drive down whilst my girlfriend isn't looking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Felt like it gave away WAY too much, almost kinda killed my desire to see it. I still want to, but I wish I'd know less going in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubin Farr Posted April 27, 2013 Share Posted April 27, 2013 Watching Joesph Kosinski's movies is like watching a kid go thru film school. For every original idea he has, he falls back on a cliche whenever he doesn't know what to do next. I still liked it, but there were groans.
