War Incarnate

Sucker Punch
Alternative title; Hot Chicks with Katannas and Machineguns Fighting Dragons, Steam Powered Mechs and Giant Samurai Warriors with Miniguns in World War 1 FUCK YEAH!!!
Yes, this is a thing that is happening, and it is awesome. This could possibly be my favourite thing ever, or at the very least this year (until something more awesome comes along, but this'll take some beating). It's been described as Alice in Wonderland with machineguns and it certainly looks it, kind've a more action-packed explosion-fest version of Scott Pilgrim. So, anyone going to see this?

So very tempted to see this so bad. I don't think I'll even care what the plot is, I'd just go for the action badassery.

It looks terrible. Just so, so so, terribly...AMAZING.
I'm gonna go see it Friday. I'm prepared for it to be awful but I want to give this much nerdy, schoolgirl outfit stuff a try. Also Jamie Chung. |

So we are clear

wasn't this a comic?
what I gathered the plot is one of those that allows for anything and like any good writer when given ability to add anything, you add every awesome thing you can think of

Nope, this is an original film. A first for Zach Snyder.
I'm looking forward to seeing it, because it looks like it could be either amazing or the worst thing since Resident Evil: Afterlife. Can we take bets now: More or less successful than Scott Pilgrim?

I'm all-in on more successful. Not even checking the odds.

I hope it turns out to be more successful. Not because this looks to be better, but so that more movies like this get made.

I really don't like how it seems to be a frame story, set in the person's head.
