Brilliant trailer featuring that "In a world..." voiceover guy.
(QuickTime required).

  2nd best trailer ever!  (The best being the trailer for Hitchcock's Psycho.)

EDIT: In a world where TOTPDs are king...

I defy anyone to hate this movie, honestly, the best movie I've seen this year.

EDIT: I've taken a look around the US sites for SOTD, I like the US Version of the trailer, contains some great bits (especially the "Team Pie" speech).

Thanks Coilers!   
*checks IMDB*
Yay! Colm Meaney is in it!
Now it has to be good or it will break the laws of film physics!   

Edit: Here's an extended trailer   (QT movie, 5.8 MBs)
Paste it into your browser and it should work.

Well, that didn't get any replies. So how about Charlie and the Chocolate Factory?

War of the Worlds´ trailer!

[Reply #368 on:]

And here's the trailer for yet another remake coming out next year: Batman.

By the way, what's the meaning of the "They're already here" tagline for War of the Worlds? I hope it doesn't have aliens disguising themselves as humans yet again. (In case you don't know, the narration in the trailer is based on the beginning of the actual book by HG Wells. I wish they'd somehow used the version of that narration done by Orson Welles from the 1938 radio version.)

[Reply #369 on:]

Willy Wonka looks freaky but fantastic, could be the best Depp/Burton combo so far...

[Reply #370 on:]

I dunno, that "War of the Worlds" trailer isn't too intriguing for me.  The effects just look like "generic sci-fi movie."  And did we really need another version of that story, too?

Same thing with the Willy Wonka trailer.  It just didn't seem to need to be remade.

I really didn't like Gene Wilder as Willy Wonka, I always thought he was too happy and sane, Depp's performance looks like it could be spot on.

[Reply #372 on:]

Goddamnit! War of the Worlds does not take place in the 21st centuary. if that were the case, Earth's armies would have easily beaten the aliens. This is such bullshit.

[Reply #373 on:]

I was looking forward to the new Willy Wonka and the Charlie Factory movie... but after seeing the trailer, it looks just a little bit too happy.  I wanted an evil wonka with pedophilic midgets....

I was wondering how they'd handle that. Slow-moving tripods don't have much of a chance against jets. The previous movie handled that problem by giving the aliens inpenetrable force fields. But in the book the humans were able to take down a few Martians even with relatively primitive weapons.

[Reply #375 on:]

Yeah, really. I don't understand why they can't just set movies like this in the time period that the book took place in. The only reason to change it I can think of is because it's historically incorrect and didn't actually happen. Knowing this, whoever wrote the screenplay must have felt that this would detract from the realism, and therefore not scare the viewer.  But really though, who honestly cares if it's historically incorrect? A good writer/director(you heard me, Speilberg has lost his touch in recent years) would be able give the viewer a good scare regardless of the films realism.

It didn't take place in 1938, either, and I don't hear you complaining about that.

Apparently, Roald Dahl (however his name's spelled) absolutely HATED that first "Charlie and the Chocolate Factory" movie - no matter that it was still a decent movie in its own right - and his estate only let Tim Burton have a crack at the remake because they loved the "James and the Giant Peach" movie that Burton produced.

I know you're being sarcastic, but assuming th major powers could avoid killing each other off at this point, the major world powers could give the invaders a much harder time than in the book or radio broadcast.  Which would you rather have: a gigantic tripod with a heat ray or howitzers, B-17's and a few hundred Panzers?  (Or King Tigers, but they didn't really have those in any numbers in 1938.  Or even 1945.)

This could be the most creepy/disturbing trailer I've seen, something about it really freaks me out...

Aw man, now I'm afraid to watch it...

But it'll be on TV eventually.... I'm screwed! 

[Reply #385 on:]

Wow, that Tim Burton, this flick looksas cool as I could have hoped for -

As does this, im gonna say fantastic however stupid that makes me look, except the tagline perhaps -

1 was bad? What the hell is that? Bad Doom, naughty boy, bad insane doctor....

Anyway see ya later folks, flame on!

[Reply #386 on:]

I'm not sure about Fantastic Four. The Thing just isn't big enough. And Jessica Alba doesn't look right with blonde hair. But I really don't agree with former Fantastic Four writer/artist John Byrne, who said he thinks that all Hispanic women with blonde hair look "like hookers." He does realize that some Hispanic women naturally have blonde hair, right?

[Reply #387 on:]

I thought Sue Richards did have blonde hair?  But you're right, Jessica Alba, while hot, looks waaaay too young to play Sue.  I also concur that the Thing is much too small.  Isn't he as big as the Hulk, depending on who draws him?  I know he does change size, but I always remember him as one and a half times a normal human.  No Human Torch version of Johnny Storm....uh.  And Dr. Doom looks like ass.  Not to mention the cringeworthy "one was bad" line. :shudder:

"The Corpse Bride" looks pretty good.  I enjoy the Nightmare... look to it.  It's subtly creepy, although I will state that the creepiness and relatively graphic corpse doesn't make this a "kid's movie."  While geeks, goths, and emo kids will see it, I don't see a huge traditional family film.

[Reply #388 on:]

I saw the trailer for Hide and Seek, spooky.

"Charlieeeee?"

Pop quiz, hotshot: Has De Niro ever been in a horror film before?

Sue does have blonde hair, but Alba naturally doesn't. And she looks too young, but the person who's really too young is the guy who plays Reed Richards, who's 31 years old. Yes, he's 31 but the hair on his temples is greying. Couldn't they have cast someone just a little older?

The Corpse Bride looks like it was done by computers. behhhhh!

Well, IMO, Reed Richards always had that "painted on grey hair" look to his sideburns.  But I see your point..it looks like they de-aged the 4 by 10 years to appear "hip."

[Reply #392 on:]

Fantastic Four, it dose'nt look all that "Fantastic" to me.

Corpse Bride on the other hand looks OK, at least it looks alot more promising than "F4". It also looks like it has a very Nightmare Before Christmas feel to it.

[Reply #393 on:]

 http://www.apple.com/trailers/independent/ong_bak-tlr.html/ 

This looks awesome.

[Reply #394 on:]

My main complaint about the F4 trailer, except Ben Grimm being to small is Doom being in the same accident on the Space Ship, but the film itself has a more "ultimates" look about it explaining this and them being a bit younger than they should. Oh well...

Plus Ravens right, this looks really great.

Is there a Sin City trailer for WMP? The Apple screen is way too small 

[Reply #396 on:]

Huh...that's so weird...I watched the Sin City trailer yesterday in the computer lab at the Cascade Campus during the lunch break for my Multimedia 120 class, and it was large on a 17" mac monitor set to 1280x720 - but on my 17" PC monitor set to 1024x768, it's tiny.... damned macs!

Whatever the case, the production design team has already done an incredible job and I WANT to see that movie...
