Now here's another movie I'm already queuing up to see. The last one was Inception.
This movie is going to be one hell of an emotional rollercoaster. With Spielberg directing and Cumberbatch starring and a synopsis that has already has me hooked, I just feel this is going to be a good movie. This is coming from someone who doesn't normally watch war-based films.

Re: War Horse
Should I watch the play first or the film first or read the novel first?

Be who you are and say what you feel because those who mind don't matter and those who matter don't mind.

Re: War Horse
I watched the play and thought it was pretty good and I am not that much into theatre. Then I saw a trailer recently and it blew me away. It better be good!

Re: War Horse
Spielberg always seem to make 2 opposite films together. A guilty pleasure one, and a serious one. Its been a pattern with him since he made Empire of the Sun.
