Not the Assassin's Creed I know or wanted to see :(


It's an editorial I wrote on the front page of the website below if you're interested in a read. Here's a direct link.

I'm sure some of you will agree, and some of you won't, but sound off either way.

I was expecting that some will judge a film by its trailers here, on IMDb boards, but writing an article... really? Don't you think that you put yourself in a bad light by writing an entire text, judging the film which hadn't even been released yet only by its promo materials?

Nolan, I love you forever!

reply

That's what trailers are for, judging. Yes, really. No, I explained my position quite clearly in the editorial.

No, they are for marketing the movie. A lot of awful movies has great trailers, and a lot of great movies has awful trailers.

Yes, marketing. To try sell you a product. You judge what they present to you and if you don't like what they're offering based on their presentation, then you don't buy their product. It's a fairly simple concept. Trailers exist to be judged.

Most modern movies have decent trailers, even misleadingly good trailers, they've got the formula down pat for the most part. The really bad trailers are usually for old movies. And that's why they have 3 and 4 trailers and TV spots and all that stuff for movies now. So if one's bad, chances are something else will look good. So far Assassin's Creed is 0-2.

For me it's the exactly the movie i want to see as a hardcore AC fan.

reply

I'm still waiting for you to give me one PG movie in the last decade that was full of "bloodshed". As a "hardcore AC fan", you'll know what "bloodshed" means.

Bloodshed means a tiny as bloodspurt realistic enough. And there will be a tiny ass bloodspurt in the movies.

reply

Nonsense, stop avoiding the question. Because that's what Assassin's Creed is known for, a little "tiny ass bloodspurt". You said, and I quote,

"will have bloodshed"


And everyone knows, even you in your busted English knows that "bloodshed" means bloody violence on a massive scale, or on the scale of an Assassin's Creed game.

blood·shed
ˈblədˌSHed/
noun
noun: bloodshed

the killing or wounding of people, typically on a large scale during a conflict.


Stop playing semantics. There will be no "bloodshed" in this movie. You can stop deflecting my question and tell me "one recent PG movie that was full of 'bloodshed' then." Go ahead.

When Aguilar stabs and slices people in the full AC movie you will see blood. You will see blood spurting from there neck. Pg13 doesn't mean there isn't blood.

reply

Name one PG movie where you see someone visibly gets their throat cut and blood spurts out from it. I notice we're moving away from the notion of "bloodshed" now too, are we? Down from "bloodshed" to a little arterial spray? Okay. My question remains though, both of them. Either come back with an answer or don't bother.

"Drag Me To Hell" had more blood than most of R movies

And stop confusing PG and PG-13, these are completely different ratings

reply

You're equating what? A comically over the top nosebleed to slicing someone's throat open? Repeatedly, graphically and en masse like the Assassin's Creed games do. PG and PG-13 are the same thing, makes no difference. I know it's a discussion board, but I asked Ninja specifically, and have been for a while now, so why don't you let him answer.

Anything even remotely close to this in a PG movie.
