We just cut a 3 minute trailer for CineEurope for Argo. The way that thing is testing certainly helped.

Also I need to mention again how much I loving loved Dragon Tattoo. I didn't read the book or see the Swedish version. But man I loved it.

I'm immensely excited for Argo, and hearing that it is testing well only fuels the fires for me.

I also, by the way, love Dragon Tattoo. I've never read the book or seen the Swedish version either, and it took a couple of viewings, but I rate it alongside Finchers best now.

More serious than their self-produced works.

Anyway, new trailer for Lincoln is up:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=F_PfTl63qQQ
I'm assuming all the "Best Actor" awards just magically appeared in Daniel Day-Lewis' house once this movie finished production.

The shot of him walking into a room, iconic silhouette in shadow matches perfect with an identical shot in Abe Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. I'm okay with that.

If we're going to talk about the trailer for "The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo," which is incredible, we have to mention the trailer for The Social Network. It's drat near perfect.

These are my two favorite trailers, though I prefer the Red Band Dragon Tattoo that was made to look like a leak.

On top of the The Social Network is my favorite film ever, alongside Jurassic Park.

Glados? A portal between dimensions? That's a bit more Valve than I expected.

And the trailer is also focused more on the robots than I expected, which I guess could be because they want to keep most of the monster designs secret, but the tagline implies they might play more of a part in the storyline than being merely weapons.

Valve? What? Valve didn't invent neither of those concepts.

What did you expect? I don't get your post I guess.

Firstly, I don't mind the similarities at all, I'm 100% behind this film and was simply observing that the voice actress for the AI machine is the same one used for Glados, with (as far as I can tell) the same post-processing effect used on it.

Again, I don't care, it's just that when coupled up with the dimensional portal spewing forth monsters (Half-Life) made me affectionately link it to Valve.

And no, Valve didn't invent the concept of portals or computer A.I's, but it's the EXACT same voice.

Again, I'm just observing.

I was confused as to how those monsters seem to wreck everything yet some massive facility was left alone long enough to build a bunch of elaborate 100 ft tall robots.

My understanding is that there were several months, even years, between the initial attacks. Also I'm not sure why you expected to get all that back story from the trailer, or why you really care about the logistics of constructing a giant robot warrior.

I think we can all agree that the Oz trailer looked pretty poor, and didn't show anything that wasn't in the one released a few months back. That said, it will probably make a lot of money for some reason.

I really appreciate that The Fast and The Furious franchise has gone from a film about a small, tight-knit racing crime family to a series of films about car-based superheroes.

Fast 5 and this entry are basically the Avengers as well, with multiple characters from the franchise teaming up. Fast 5 was also considerably better than the Avengers.

But didn't Han said at the end of Fast five that he was going back to Tokyo to that hot Israeli chick? However if Michelle Rodriguez can survive being killed so can he.

I also think that Tokyo drift was pretty cool.

He pretty knowingly says something like; "It's still a long way to Tokyo."

Well luckily for you the trailer actually shows how he solves that problem pretty clearly. Yeah, I'm sure there will be a set back and some dramatic music, but it's pretty evident that they all link hands and he lowers them down like a rapidly falling human dandelion chain.

Has everyone else missed the fact that this trailer spoils it's own dramatic mystery?

I love Alfonso Cuaron, but I think Gravity looks like poo poo - mainly because I hate the casting. If he'd cast unknowns I would've bought into it much more, but then I also guess the film wouldn't of got made.

Simply put though I can't imagine a better fate for Sandra Bullock than drifting off into the abyss of space.
