Nick & Cassie {Push} #2 : Because she was the girl with the flower

:lol: Love that conversation, Robin.

I'm agreeing with Gladys: I'd rather leave Nick and Cassie's future adventures up to our imaginations than have a network ruin the characters and potential story by recasting and whatnot.

The fact that we won't get a sequel still blows my mind. Seriously. I know Chris is super busy right now (and he's filming in the next state over. My creys!), but it'd be, what, a seven-week shoot, maybe less? I just don't understand. I don't think I've ever met someone or seen a comment from someone that disliked the film.

Yes, I'm going to be bitter about this the rest of my life, presumably.

Edit: Have y'all seen thisvideo? I swear, it's my favorite Nick/Cassie next to Colorblind.
 
I agree. That is precisely how I believe studios decide what films to produce. And I don't like it. :pout: Some of the larger ones are indeed worthy of sequels (imo, as well), as you mentioned, but then there are the ones that really need to be put to rest but because the money-grubbing studios can't bear the thought of letting such highly-profitable hype go, they run the entire franchise into the ground (sacrificing its original quality) and pass on the smaller films where fans are desperately awaiting a conclusion to a story that has been left wide open.

This makes me wonder now, actually... :lol: I really want a Push 2 but I'd hate to see any of the characters ruined for the sake of a sequel! But then, somehow, since Push wasn't a raging success for Summit, I don't see them latching onto it and forcing something that isn't there to give. Push DOES have more story so, as long as David Bourla gets to write the next script, I'm fairly confident that a second movie would just continue on in the same style, with the same character profiles. (Because I really love the way in which he [and Paul] told the Nick/Cassie relationship - just subtle enough but still solid and they at the very core of the film.) Plus, there really is so much more they could do with this type of supernatural material and how the characters handle their abilities since they are new at it.

I was thinking, though, as much as I would love to see an actual romance on screen for Nick and Cassie (like a kiss, for example - yes I want one :P :blush:; since she's almost 17 now, and I really do think they have an awesome concept on which to launch a believable and real relationship for them) - I don't really need to see it. I mean, I'd be content enough if they would just,

a) do away with Kira (woman neeRAB to go. :lol: )
and b) let us know through a look or suggestion that Nick and Cassie will be together one day. (Like in our example of Cassie's mom Seeing it in a vision and saying something to one or both of them that they are fated to be together :blush:)

And in case that made no sense :lol:, what I mean is, I don't need to see anything physical to make me happy. (I'd like it, mind you, but I don't need it. :lol: ) If we know NC will be together in the future by the film's end, then that's all I truly care about. :sigh:

Ah omg, my rarabling is getting worse. :lmao:
 
No problem. :)

And yeah, it's better than nothing but....... :pout:

I really hope they keep the original story and characters (....hm... unless they mess it up with the sequel...?!! :blank: :rant: Ok now I'm worried. :lol:)
 
Seriously! :thud: He's especially hot in this movie, I love how he has his hair!

I adore how he tries to cheer her up, they were so natural together in their scenes. :sigh:
 
:lol: I know. I don't know how I got once out of what you said. :lol: I think I saw "first" and panicked. :rotfl:

And ...er... .. maybe I should have kept my rewatch count to myself. :lmao: I can't explain it but I just love the atmosphere in Push (and, of course, this relationship) so I tend to want to relive it again and again. (Since it's all we've got to go with! :rant: :bawl:) But the last time I watched, I fastforwarded through a certain character's scenes so it only became an hour long instead. :P

I also end up finding some other small thing I didn't catch the previous 17 watches (:lmao: ) so it's cool to see what I catch.

Can you tell that I'm desperately trying to convince you I'm normal? :lol:
 
Same here! Cassie was an awesome character. She was strong&spit-fiery but vulnerable at the same time.

Another funny scene was when they're walking into the Host club and Nick starts explaining that it's a place for "grown-ups, so behave yourself." And Cassie immediately says "Shut up." To which Nick replies "SounRAB about right." :lmao: It was so cute. :P
 
Pretty much. :lol:

Aw thanks! I really enjoyed it too, even if some parts confused me a bit at times. :lol:

:sigh:
 
The OP's so pretty!! :sigh:

That's how I've noticed things work, with all media types. Films, television shows, musicians. The good things that deserve attention and accolade don't get it, despite having a (significantly smaller if) loyal fanbase. Some big films do really well and they manage to tell the right amount of story in their two hours -- ex: Star Trek.

I just don't think fan reception/reaction/loyalty matters to studios right now. But the Matrix is a good example. I don't care for those films, but, yes, they did come back years later. Another example is Before Sunrise and Before Sunset; they were nine years in between films, and that only happened because the two main actors were extremely close frienRAB and decided to write the sequel themselves.

I still can't believe 2009 was last year. It feels like so long ago.
 
My laptop is giving me sound/volume issues atm, I'll bookmark it and watch it once it's sorted out again. :yay:

I don't hate her, I just think she doesn't really serve a purpose in the movie, at all. :lol:
 
:lol: IKR. Their banter is funny. I love the scene in the taxi too when he's insulting her drawing and she's like "It's a bead! With a SHIMMER" :lol:
 
Yes, very misread! :lmao: Though I can say I haven't seen it as many times as you have. :lol:

IKR? Gotta love creative people! :lmao:
 
An animated film as a sequel to the first one? :look: That's very odd IMO. :goof: Though I'd rather have that, than have like a totally different premise/cast for a second one. But now we won't get to see Chris and Dakota's awesomeness. :bawl: :(

Thanks for sharing the info, btw! :)
 
Oh I didn't mean to imply that I didn't like Resident Evil. I did. (Well, I liked the first two, the third wasn't as good, imo.) But I'm just mad that because of these highly-budgeted movies, the littler ones that do have a fan-base if they bothered to notice, like Push, get over-looked. :bawl:

You're so right; it really didn't get enough of the right kind of promotion so now it, and the audience, is left hanging indefinitely. I've been reading some reviews where critics accuse that it does not fully explain itself and therefore falls flat but I think the reason for that is because there is so much more story to tell, they simply ran out of time. They need another 2 hours to let us get into each of the characters more (minus Kira :look:) like they've clearly set us up to do - whereas the mass-exposure movies seem to grasp at anything MORE they can write for their already-established franchise.

... *reaRAB her rant* :lol: I never know if it sounRAB the way it does in my head. :lmao:

But, anyway, I'm not giving up. :lol: The first Matrix movie was done in 1999 and didn't come back for its sequel until 2003. Push was only done last year, as long as they drop the TV show idea and realize that a 2nd movie is what is needed with THESE characters and THESE actors, I'm still hopeful. :blush: :P
 
Hold on, Gladys, you've only seen it ONCE?!?!!!!! :jaw_drop: :lol: I think I'm on my 18th rewatch! :lmao:

.... (feels somewhat obsessed now)...... :oops:

ETA: Wait, I misread what you wrote. Thank goodness. :lol:




And omg that picture, :rotfl: :rotfl: There's a plot for a sequel right there! :P
 
Aw, poor dead thread! :no:

I just thought I'd share some info I just found out. Apparently the TV show that was supposed to happen has been axed and they are instead considering doing an animated feature as a sequel to Push.

I couldn't find any info on it so I don't know if it's going to materialize but I'm trying to decide whether I'd be okay with that. .... :pout:

I suppose if it's all we're getting, I'll take it and I'll hope that the Nick/Cassie relationship is developed even in the animated film but I am going to miss Chris/Dakota. :( I really think those actors together were a big part of what made Nick/Cassie work. They had so much chemistry.

But still, like I said, if animation is ALL they're willing to give..... :pout:

One question though; would it not cost MORE to do an animated sequel? I don't think animation is cheap considering the time it takes to create so I'm confused if money is the issue........ (then again, I guess it depenRAB on the type of animation...?? :shrug: )

Anyway, shutting up now. Just thought I'd let people know. :blush:
