Will Smith’s Hancock

Not a Will Smith fan or a fan of his latest movies but I’m a total comic geek so I have to admit I’m slightly intrigued by Hancock…mainly because I don’t know shit about it.

I’ve seen the trailers and read that it has a somewhat dark tone to it – and that people who enjoy the “bad superman flicking peanuts” scene will enjoy the movie.

It seems a drunken The Tick-type character is transformed into a Superman-type character but…

Where is he from?
How did he get his powers?
What are his weaknesses?
Who is the villain(I heard it’s Theron) and what’s her plan?

I expect plenty of Hancock/Will Smith hate comments but I’m interested to know if anyone has any more info on this??

I've been a Will Smith fan since Parents Just don't Understand. Most of his movies I enjoy. I've never heard of this one. I'll have to check it out.

I read one preview article about it and supposedly it is not a comedy.

That's kinda why I'm drawn to it...it's supposed to have kind of a semi-dark tone to it...more of a drama.

They got me for now...I'm HOOKED!

I thought it looked kind of corny. I mean, I'm still going to see it when it comes out, but it didn't look spectacular.

Hancock definitely looks interesting. I love the scene where he picks up the beached whale and tosses it back out to sea, but it smashes the shit out of that sailboat.

I was never a big Will Smith fan until I saw Ali. After that flick, I was like "Damn, ole Fresh Prince actually has some real acting ability."
