From visionary Director Bong Joon Ho, this grand global adventure follows a friendship too big to ignore. Meet Mija, a young girl who risks everything to prevent a powerful, multi-national company from kidnapping her best friend – a massive animal named Okja. Following her across continents, the coming-of-age comedy drama sees Mija's horizons expand in a way one never would want for one's children, coming up against the harsh realities of genetically modified food experimentation, globalization, eco-terrorism, and humanity's obsession with image, brand and self-promotion.

Hits Netflix June 28.

Snowpiercer was actually pretty good. This looks interesting.

 

[faridmon]

[fantomena]

[Usobuko]

Love memories of murder, might watch because of Bong Joon Ho

 

[Tom Nook]

How is Netflix even able make all these movies/TV shows they have?

Venture capital I'd guess.

 

[BronsonLee]

Oh god Swinton and Joon Ho again, I expect pure fuckery

How is Netflix even able make all these movies/TV shows they have?

They're viewing it as an long-term investment since once they make it, they don't pay licensing rights on it after the fact

 

[dancingphlower]

I'm in. After Snowpiercer, the man has my attention.

 

[FantasticMrFoxdie]

[NewFresh]

Which Gyllenhaal we talkin here? Are they acting in it?

Gyllenhaal of the Jake variety.

 

[Bubba_Sparks]

Venture capital I'd guess.

Same thing I was going to ask? Are they profitable?

 

[Fixed2BeBroken]

You had me at Yeun... oh wait, there is no mention of him

 

[BruceCLea]

How is Netflix even able make all these movies/TV shows they have?

They had about 9 billion in revenue last year.

[Discotheque]

Disliked snowpiercer but the rest of his movies have been pretty dope. So I'm always willing to give a film of his a shot. Netflixs movie output this year is looking really cool. Pretty hyped for war machine too

 

[Daft_Cat]

Alas, day 0.

Admittedly, the teaser itself does little for me, but Bong Joon Ho consistently delivers incredible work. Seems foolhardy to bet against him.

 

[Fancy Clown]

Bong Joon Ho does The Last Guardian? Word.

 

[kingocfs]

Yeesssss

 

[Sgt. Kabukiman]

Not much to go on but I'm in.
I'm torn on Snowpiercer but thanks to Memories of Murder, The Host and Mother, Bong Joon Ho is my favorite director working today.

 

[BlueTsunami]

Netflix on a roll, man. Its very obvious all these interesting ideas were just floating out there with no outlet. Amazon and Netflix have become conduits for some interesting films.

[dancingphlower]

Apparently I need to catch up on the director's other films lol

 

[Moonkid]

Was so-so on Snowpiercer, but Memories of Murder and Gweomul are some of my favourite films of all time so I'm in. Bong seems to have a good relationship with Swinton seeing how she's back and seems pretty central.

 

[Rumblebones]

I wish Netflix produced another thriller by Bong Joon Ho in the vein of Memories of Murder.

A Korean crime series would be fantastic.

 

[Einchy]

Trailer was okay but I'll give it a chance since I loved Snowpiercer.
