Trailers trailers trailers
I watched the New Moon trailer, which was a letdown since Christopher Heyerdahl was not in it for more than a frame and he is 100% the reason I want to see the movie. Though I'd somehow managed to forget how ludicrous the subplot was - not Jacob, since the poor kid has to deal with two versions of puberty - but the Bella's entire "I'm so depressed my boyfriend dumped me wha I'm pathetically codependent it's the end of the woooorld" shpiel of I could not care less. I mean I could barely deal with Buffy moping about killing her boyfriend for what was it? 30 minutes? Then again, whenever Buffy mopes I get annoyed. I'd rather she turn crazy and hunt things and drive with an angry face and drink demon blood channel rage. So I have absolutely zero for Bella's sparkly boyfriend issues.
But Christopher Heyerdahl. Yes. Playing a vampire.
Speaking of trailers...
You Can't Handle the Tooth Now we all know who's actually responsible for this. I believe that children are our future. More proof that the apocalypse is real. Thanks for the heads up, Eric.
Aladin Thank you India, I love you and want to make out with your film industry this looks awesome and fun and hilarious and probably has very little substance but go you for making big-budget movies yes.
Oh My God Just my cup of tea in a movie yes. Like my World Religions class at uni, only with beautiful cinematography and more surprise celebrities. Throw in some Philip Glass and we'll be golden.
Red Cliff Takeshi Kaneshiro, Tony Leung, John Woo, rated "R" for scenes of "epic warfare". I don't think anything more needs to be said. Even though Jet Li and Zhang Yimou already made this movie. But China has a lot of history we're not very familiar with.
Also living in Japan means it's a lot easier for me to notice LOL JAPANESE PERSON in the middle of a crowd of azns now. Go me. /o\
The Road All I could think, inanely, was that there was too much color in the trailer. They tried to dress it up as an action movie, that they have to run away from people for some reason. Yeah, they fail to mention pretty much everyone left alive are cannibals. Though the "I'll kill anyone who touches you, because that's my job," made me crack up hysterically. "I WILL KILL YOU ALLLL!" Oh cannibals I love you. But on the post-apocalyptic dystopia despairing cinematography look, The Book of Eli is a lot closer to what I had in mind. Just with, you know, more starving crazy people.
Fanboys Watching this trailer gave me the dual feeling of being really excited and really nauseous. Maybe because I'm imagining the sequel "Fangirls." So I'm not really sure what's going on with that. Though clearly the people who wrote this movie were over 35 or something because why the hell are they not trying to break into Blizzard HQ is what I'm wondering.
James Cameron, I love it when you do sci-fi. Now might I interest you in making a "in the future" movie about a tv series you did awhile ago...
Alice looks excruciating. If you want an a-list actor with a surprisingly fantastic crazy laugh, go with Brad Pitt. Okay okay, maybe he's too expensive. But an Alice movie by Tim Burton is just complete redundancy, and having it look so much like the animated version is boring. If you want a "darker" Alice, you talk to American McGee. Why aren't they making a movie out of that? Oh wait, I forgot. They are.
But Christopher Heyerdahl. Yes. Playing a vampire.
