    No idea what it's about, but I'll probably go see it anyway.

          or do you mean the joy of not being a commercial whore?

            It's DIE HARD in a tree.

            The real logline:

            "A group of people race in search of the legendary Tree of Life, said to give immortality, fertility, and supernatural powers."

            So it's THE FOUNTAIN meets IT'S A MAD MAD MAD MAD WORLD.

              Actually, it's perfect advertising given what the product is. It's a Terence Malick flick, and the guy's not exactly Michael Bay. They're selling Malick, and they've done a good job of that: images, VO, and Malick.

              I have no idea what the movie's ABOUT, but I do know that, given Malick's track record, he's not gonna be bringing in the comic book fanboys, and Mom and Dad on date night.

                I got enough from the trailer to be intrigued to see it, so it did it's job.

                The Thin Red Line is an all-time favourite of mine, Mallick is a brilliant director.

                And I always get a woody when I see Brad Pitt.

                  I've seen every Malick movie in the theater (BADLANDS and DAYS OF HEAVEN in rerelease at my local art-house cinema) and I'm not gonna stop here. Gorgeous trailer, makes me pee involuntarily.

                    A comic fan boy selected most of the clips for that trailer, and his friends Cvolante and her husband will be Mom and Dad on date night to see that movie.

                        DAYS OF HEAVEN is one of my favorite films.

                          Outside of the nice cinematography and the fact it's Terrence Mallick would any of you be excited for this film? I dislike Hollywood's need to summarize all three acts in every trailer they put out nowadays, but is there even any hint of a story in that trailer?

                          In my opinion the trailer really did a pretty poor job of selling what it's supposed to sell, in that I think it is supposed to be selling a narrative film. If it's purpose is to sell a film that is a collection of pretty images with people whispering vague V.O. than I suppose it did a good job.



                          Seriously it's like the art house version of a Michael Bay trailer with B-rolls of nebulas, waves, and stained glass windows in the place of ****, ass, and explosions.



                          I'm still hoping it's good though and I'm hoping they release a better trailer.

                            Lol, that's the stupidest thing i've read in a while..

                            ... outside of that fact that the movie was made by someone, about something.. would anyone like it?

                            Gee i dunno, maybe if they cut back on the protons used in making the film and turned up the neutrons I'd be more interested.

                              Maybe you need to work on your reading comprehension.

                              Can you point to the part where I commented on what the movie was about?

                              If you studied a little harder in middle school perhaps you would grasp that the whole point of my post was about the fact that the trailer gave the viewer no idea about what the film was about.


                              Don't worry, it's alright if it takes you a few more tries to understand than the other kids, no one will know.

                              But they will know when you start running your mouth and replying to **** you don't comprehend.


                              Read twice reply once perhaps? Could be a new personal maxim for you.
