This movie is still in the teaser stages, but it's got a similar excitement/hype that followed Cloverfield and Super 8 in its mystery. I like the use of the 'found footage' with traditional filming techniques. I also like the darker tone to the whole 'gaining super powers' story.
Chronicle is due to hit cinemas in 2012.
Do you like this darker tone? What would you want to see in a new superhero movie?
Super something, but not heroes! Like evil X-Men. Looks interesting though!
ReplyDeleteAnd hey, have you seen the trailers for Lock Out and Cabin in the Woods? Awesome stuff!
ReplyDeleteI like a little darkness (it makes characters more complex), but not too much. A nice twist to the usual!
ReplyDeleteThe premise makes me think of the British Show MISFITS, which was good and gritty by the way (and disturbing at times too).
ReplyDeleteI like movies to change up a bit. After a while superheroes can become super boring.
I like the idea of a darker side to having super powers. It makes so much more sense than giving them super powers and making them super good.
ReplyDeleteOkay, from the description, it didn't sound that exciting. But then I saw the trailer and holy smokes. I have to see this movie.
