Still dead! trailer_spot June 28 2009, 08:27:12 UTC

That comic sums up my feelings towards reporting of breaking news very well. Be it celebrity deaths or plane crashs. And when there's finally a TV report six or twelve months later that tells us something about the facts and what was really happening, nobody watches.

*Nods.* It's a desperate form of void-filling, where the voids seem to self-replicate according to a calendar at least partly determined by the media. This case is especially true of the model, thanks to the bewildering gaps between "legitimate" sources of information (a toxicology analysis which allegedly takes up to six weeks to complete, and a police investigation with the metaphorical body clock of a small, and unseasonally hibernating mammal).

I not completely sure, but it looks to me like the US trailer just cut by about 30 seconds.
It looks so loud. ;) The trailer is probably misleading when it comes to non-stop action, but I think less would be more.
