Watchmen trailer:

http://link.brightcove.com/services/player/bcpid1670081657

God Damnit! I found the trailer first. :ganishka:

I have to say it looks good, but I'm not as excited about it like I am for Punisher War Zone and Max Payne.
 
I don't care who the target audience is, I'm devastatingly excited about this:

Gake no Ue no Ponyo

Miyazaki's new film. Link includes a review words and pictures as well as a video featuring a trailer and plenty of excited japanese babble about how "kawaiiiiiii!!!!" it all is.

Wtf?

Was that like 99% slo-mo? Overly stylized, too clean and slick, and even worse, with a 90's song running in the background (from the soundtrack of Batman & Robin)?

I don't get it, the style is way off... I enjoyed some shots, but everyone is posing and looking too good. I mean, arent the Watchmen wasted super heroes? I just hope the movie isnt like this trailer. Specially since it was announced that it would be R-rated.

Sadly, that's the direction we're heading in. Terminator is becoming the Aliens series right before our very eyes, at least T3 was so mercifully terrible that it was like immediate closure on the whole thing.

The heck? What a horrendous trailer! Besides listing off some names of who is in it, it has no other practical purpose other than steering people away.

Huh? Yeah, I'd seen it, I was hoping for some version containing "spiked humor" that would either support or negate my point.

I actually disagree, I don't think it's so terrible as a teaser trailer, I don't mind it being subdued (beats the hell out of the ambient and cliche Diablo III teaser for example). I mean, I actually think this looks promising as Proj as does, it's just I'm not going to associate, compare, or hold it up to the first two. This is something separate and different and I'll try to judge it on those merits.

Speaking of which, the title sucks BTW. Was Terminator Resurrection taken? :carcus:

From Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terminator_Salvation

"James Middleton, the associate producer of the film, stated the film "is really about the birth of a new hero," and McG said that it will also be about the development of the Model 101 Terminator. He explained the film will "begin again very much in the spirit of what Christopher Nolan did with Batman," in that it will stand on its own without the original films, and that it is "a bit of a sequel and a prequel because it tells the story of how we got there."

Well, good for me and my perception. Anyway, while that was worthwhile information, I hope you're not going to become the A.C to Terminator Salvation's LOST. =)

It's the start of a new trilogy, so maybe we'll see Terminator Resurrection after all. :SK:

Oh no, another bogus pre-made trilogy? It's worse than I thought. Well, not if this turkey fucking bombs at the box office compared to studio expectations, then we'll see where the need to tell this important story, in a trilogy of course, goes. =)

I have to disagree. There's just not much there for me to feel optimistic nor pessimistic. It's just a whole lot of nothing. The only thing that stands out was the line about the future not being like what his mother told him. The only other things I can remember about the teaser was Bale, some sort of desert, and a robot. And it's only been around a half hour since I last saw the damn thing. I guess the name Bale does give at least a small dose of optimism.

I will concede that its a lot better than the Diablo 3 teaser, but I had the fortune of seeing the gameplay demo first so I still bouncing off the walls and could care less about that crap.

Can we agree you really don't NEED Arnold to have a good Terminator movie?

I don't think we can. Who's Arnold's replacement for this generation? The Rock? Please. Arnie was the essence of the first 2 movies.

As for Cameron, well, I don't know. He seems sort of washed up to me these days. YES, he made some AMAZING films. But so did Speilberg.

Yeah Cameron's way past his prime in every sense of the word.

This series is in need of new blood...more specifically, talented new blood.

Honestly? I think it needs to die peacefully. T3 shouldn't have been made, then we'd have been left with 2 great movies.

Right on brotha! Seriously, set any fan angst aside. If this "new trilogy" BS is true, whoever steps up to the new Terminator title has some major shoes to fill in, and I can safely say impossible.

Well, the trailer certainly is stylized. And indeed, this has been my main fear of a hollywoodized Watchmen movie: the superheroes actually looking impressive or cool. Most of these guys are supposed to be cheesy - past their prime, and I think a lot of that irony will be lost in a major motion picture, where gloss and special effects distort everything.

Ive said it before, but this movie really shouldn't be made. It's utterly perfect as a graphic novel. Leave the damned thing alone.

I saw the Watchmen trailer with Dark Knight, along with the new Bond (awesome) and T4 trailer. Indeed, they looked stylized, but there's plenty of room to convey cheesiness, usually it's the opposite problem. I can't believe they're making this really, you'd think a grizzled Michael Keaton in The Dark Knight Returns would be more likely, and that sure ain't happening (but it's a neat idea, he just needs to grow a mustache =).

Anyway, take solace in the fact that Solid Snake wrote the screenplay.

Got about as much charisma as the pigeon I can see eating trash in the street from my window at work. Just my opinion of course, but that's like generic_muscleman_01.

Yeah that would definitely be a horrible casting choice to have The Rock be Terminator, but then again after seeing Topher Grace as Eddie Brock, it couldn't be any worse.

Eeer ok? A guy with muscles... whoopty-doo, I don't think you got my point there, but meh... Not worth getting into it really. Besides, curiosity killed the cat. Most likely I'll end up watching the flick.
