hey how did you see it already?!?!?!?

has it opened in the usa already?

i had promo pics for this a few weeks ago and have already built a mention of the movie into the new 'hollywood hunks' tour on the will smith page. i was looking through stills before the ad campaign started and since have noticed it everywhere ...

there has been a flash ad campaign on imdb.com which has several ads in the overall campaign - every one stopped me from surfing to watch the ad it was so visually and technically impressive.

there's a superstitial that looks like a robot is coming out of the screen, and this other really cool flash ad with a whole movie preview/ad inside this 120x500 skyscraper banner.

if the movie is half as good as the media campaign, i'm looking forward to it!!

Cj..we went to a midnight show last night! and it was fairly crowded!
i read it when i was younger and i have always loved Asimov's books....

but i thought they did a real good job making the viewer actuall feel for the robots....
which is similar to the way i felt when reading the books...

I'm looking to check it out this weekend. I just pray it stays dark and not just another will Smith spouting one-liners sci-fi action flick...I'm one-linered out....

From what I've read, the original script for ths movie was called "Hardwired" and was based upon a lot of the theories in Asimov's writings about robots and married the two together, then brought in another writer to punch up the script for Will Smith (yes, I visit way too many movie sites ;-))

Having now seen many commercials, snippets and trailers, this movie is as "based on" the title-named work of Asimov as much as "South Park" is based on the works of Duchovsky.

If you're a fan of the book (which is actually connected short stories more than chapters) and of Asimov, this looks like one to let pass by.

Opranoites seem to like it, but Maltin, Ebert and lots of other reviwers are panning it.

I liked it but have also heard it is not very Asimovian other than the title and the 3 laws. Big fan of Asimov non-fiction myself. I grew up on it. Asimov was my introduction to the world of academics. Asimov's Guide to the Bible and his Chronology of the World are two of my favorites.

Asimov could definitely get a young mind into real science fast. Brilliant man. Met him once at a signing. Those mile-long sideburns seemed even longer in real life. He was completely befuddled as to why buxum babes in short leather minis wanted to him follow him around and do him though.

Thanks for the reviews... Opranonauts rarely ever steer me wrong on movie picks. We were going to Netflix it but I think we might see it @ the theater instead... for me if the critics hate it I'm usually going to like it, so that's another point in the movie's favor.

Any other suggestions? I feel like hanging out @ the theater tomorrow night... maybe catch a couple of new movies.

THANKS!

In the theaters? Pickings are a little slim. The Notebook is good.

How about some rentals?

Sleeper movie of the year: "the Butterfly Effect". One of my recent favorites that seems to have slipped under everyone's radar. I don't know many that saw it in the theater.

Best road trip movie since Fear and Loathing: "Y Tu Mama Tambien"

Favorite rental this year: "21 grams"

Saw it. I though it was good besides Will Smith (and I like Smith). But, the one liners are rediculous and the action scenes are a little rediculous.

Great graphics and story.

3/5

Thanks! Yes, my daughter and I wanted to see The Notebook - won't get the boys out to see that one though I'm afraid... they have to have elevated levels of violence, foul language and crude "potty" humor to get them in the theater. Maybe we'll escape and see it on our own.

We saw Mystic River in San Diego during Cybernext - I thought it was pretty good.... we saw The Secret Window as well - and I thought that was even better. I even got my dad to Netflix it recently and he usually HATES Johnny Depp - but he liked it. We bought Cold Mountain - Civil War buffs in our house... we'll probably see that one 100 times at least... I thought it was pretty well done. Could have done without the whorehouse scene shocker in the middle though - a friend saw it first and said "oh the kids will love it" - my 13 year old freaked out and said, "ummmm.... Mom? What's this?!?" lol

Thanks for the ideas... you're right - theaters aren't filled with the summer blockbusters I was hoping for this year. *sigh*
