Al Pacino Joins Ocean's 13

Filling the cast with some big name actors takes the draw off of a weak script. Oceans 12 was just about cameos. How many of George Clooneys friends could get in one movie.:down
 
yea, but rounders was a great movie...and O13 has the writer.
 
Yeah but that doesn't mean this movie will be great like Rounders. Some writers can do great on one movie and totally mess up another.
 
Only one word can describe this news:

Hoo - Hah! :up:

BTW, today's Pacino's birthday. Coincedence? I think not.
 
I liked the first one and the second was entertaining. Pacino will make a good addition.

THe second Ocean's movie was lacking in the wit department. It wasn't even as cool as the first one.

I just that 13 will wise up..


Bingo and with Pacino and the writers of Rounder's on board this movie has a chance to surpass 11 and 12.

Just make sure they fully utilize Pacino's talent and not make him a one dimensional mob/casino owner bad guy (Garcia).
 
Oh and someone should get shot...in the face.

Ocean's 12 is a better film than Ocean's 11.

What? I watch the first forty-fifty minutes of Ocean's 12, and I think it's one of the only times I actually shut it off and never finished it, it simply wasn't that good.
 
Good news.
Hopefully I'll enjoy Ocean's 13 like I enjoyed Ocean's 11,

You didn't like it? Well then it must be bad. After all, your name is Movies205.

Anyway, this is an interesting direction to go in. If 13 is anything like 12 or 11, i'm definitely in. Even if it's nothing like the two, i'm still in.

BTW - O12 was a fantastic film.

Your attempt at sarcasm can only be described as pitiful at best. Simply because you try to take what I posed as an opinion and constituted it as I saying that my opinion is the best and means everythign which I did not. It's pretty effing dumb that the internet generation needs to be punch in the face with "IMO" for people to know your talking about your own opinion. Anyway next time you try to tell somone that there opinion is wrong try to back it up with something a little more than pathetic sarcasm.

.... KEeping the battle up for intelligent conversation on the hype, will it ever end?...
 
From what I can remember, Ocean's 12 was pretty damn good.
 
Can we at least post reasons why we liked or didn't like something? I didn't simply because it wasn't relevant to the point which was that hopefully O13 is good. But since it's becoming a feud, let's not let it degrade into name calling. From the 40-50 minutes I watched it just was simply boring and seemed like it was stretching to find someway to make a sequal. I mean come on, the best they come up with is bringing back andy garcia who has now gone completely over the top. And then robbing some parapalegic guy's house? Part of the reason Ocean's 12 is so much fun is because it's sleak and streamlined. The plot never stops and it just keeps on moving, OCean's 12 is just sluggish. Now if it miraculously gets better at 40-50 minutes then it still bad because no movie should just waste 50 minutes of your time. So there's my reason, if it's vague I apologize, I saw the movie a year ago.

A lot of great actors have been in horrible movies.

That was my point. Pacino is undoubtedly one of the greatest actors to ever walk the face of this earth (everyone acts like The Godfather is Brando's movie, but that's bullsh** as far as I'm concerned... Brando is a legend, but Pacino owns everyone in that film and the majority of other good films he's been in). But even someone as great as Pacino can't make a bad movie good... and although I wouldn't go so far as to call Ocean's 12 a bad film, it really wasn't a worthy sequel compared to the original. Perhaps they could redeem themselves with a third one, but with what appears to be the previous leading ladies (Julia Roberts and Catherine Zeta Jones) not coming back, that doesn't look good for the next movie. Now, as I've stated countless times, I've never been a very impressed with Julia Roberts's work, but her character was an integral part of the series. I don't see how it could work without her and if they're just going to replace her... that probably won't work.

Ya hit the nail on the head with that.:up:
