All I know is, if this isn't the coolest flick of the year I'll be very suprised...

Well, as of right now this movie won't have to do much to accomplish the best reviews of the year. We have nothing worth seeing right now according to the film critics.

For me, it's only Sin City and Batman that i'm incredibly excited about seeing.

Looks a little more brutal! I didn't know Rutger Hauer is in it.

Yeah, Rodriguez quit the DGA because they wouldn't let them put Miller on as a director too. I'm not sure how they are handling Tarantino's credit, other than "special guest director."

I just creamed myself!!! Well, maybe not, but close.

Who is that playing Roark (the man standing over the bed at the beginning of the trailer)? I know Rutger Hauer plays one of them but I don't know who plays the main one. Yes, I have read the comics, but only the ones upon which the movie is based and Family Values.

Where in the world can I get the music they play during the trailer? Is it something made for the soundtrack?

Yep, he's playing Cardinal Roark, you can see Rutger's face right before Ejiah Wood's near the end.

"Final poster", eh? Looks like someone's home photoshop. I know a lot of posters look like that these days, that's true enough, but for a film whose marketing has been so deftly handled... that looks stupid.

Also, the fonts for the director credits don't match. Looks like COmic sans-serif font - most Windows programs have it.

Thank you for the link.

That trailer was even better than the first one.

Hmm, did they add a bra to Lucille? Just for the trailer? I don't want them watering this movie down.

Merv looks a little too small in his fight scenes with Kevin.

Still looks like a good movie, but the watering down is going to annoy me if it happens.

Just for the trailer. As you well know, they can't show tits in a trailer. They also turned a knife into a comb in the trailer. so it's not something to be concerned about.

definitely. if you saw the comic-con footage, it included that same shot of lucille at her dresser pulling out the gun. however, definitely no bra.

god, i still can't get over this cast... just amazing.

i was definitely apprehensive at first with wood as kevin... but he looked good in these short shots. could be very good.

as for rourke, i'd have preferred if he looked a little bigger... but perhaps he looks bigger in the rest of the scenes.
