> Well, that was odd.
Well, as John pointed out, it's not a real trailer. It's a marketing
tool. I leave it to someone else to decide if that "trailer" would
induce anyone to pay money for the rights for the actual film.
> Did I really see Sean Connery at the very start & hear Chris Lambert
at the very end?
I wasn't looking that closely and refuse to subject myself to it
again<eg>
> AP even looked bad; that's just wrong.
He's mortal and heir to all the ills that flesh is prone to - balding,
sagging, ballooning <eg> Now, you know someone who looks better now than
he did 5 years ago? David Boreanaz. Granted, he's 10 years younger than
AP but by the end of "Angel", he had started to look bad. Now he looks
hot again. I like that in a man <eg> . I suppose settling down and
stopping drinking heavily helped. Having a hit TV show probably helps
too. Maybe AP should ditch the failed movie career and aim for a hit TV
show instead?
> It was also vastly confusing & excruciatingly long. I
> suspect the film itself will be just as confusing,
I believe it will be crystal clear. Apocalypse => post-Apocalypse =>
sword fights => lost love => car chase => old friends found =>horseback
chase through woods => sex scene => sword fight => death => sword fight
=> bright light => happily-ever-after => set-up for sequel
> but if we're lucky it'll be chopped down to 69 minutes or so.
I'm taking bets, I say 87 minutes.
> If we're really lucky, a "tragic" fire will destroy all footage
prior to release.
No, because that would lead to endless discussions of how great it was
if only we'd been able to see it.
> (surely someone in this eclectic group knows a fire guy)
I used to work with a State arson squad. I'm just saying.....
