Looking darn good.

Hmm odd the trailer used to be under Previews and looks like it's been removed...

can't tell based on that site... no trailer? what's it about?

wow - okay then... looks really cool. I'll see it for sure. Thanks.

Stupid name for a movie though.

Thanks DVD-ho78(DTS)

It's a collaboration between Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean. Originally was a direct to DVD movie but now should get limited release.

And uh.. why is the name stupid?

I just don't like the name. It conjures up images of a few movies that I didn't like and would rather not associate it with and it's also just dumb sounding... to me.

I'm a McKean worshiper - have been for a billon years; more of his Fine Art work and short films than some of his cd cover stuff, but I digress.

http://www.spacecast.com/ has a small 1 minute interview with Dave, and Neil, and shows a few completed scenes from the film - Worth the watch; I've been rewatching it over and over.

I really hope it gets at least a limited theatrical release - I'm close enough to Boston to hope that the Coolidge or Brattle gets it.

I hope the world embraces Dave with this - he deserves wide recognition.

The Hollywood Reporter review and it's all good!

Neil Gaiman and Dave McKean kick much ass.

Sandman. Death. Cages. American Gods.

Trailer. Me. Drool.

Even newer trailer here.

I've been waiting for this for the last couple of years. Looking forward to seeing it finally!

Saw a short segment on this movie on Screen Savers last week. Gaiman? McKean? That's about all I need to sell me on seeing it.

Well, the movie is kinda about this mirrormask thing...

Arkham Asylum sold me on McKean's work forever and...well, I'm a big fan of Sandman.

I just came across this by accident while perusing my favorite trailer site for a new Land of the Dead preview. It's funny that the film title was called stupid, because that was exactly what prompted to take a chance wasting the download minutes.

I hope this hits theaters in my area, it definitely looks like big screen material.

Just saw this at a film festival a couple days ago, and it's very good. It's geared toward all ages/families, so don't expect anything pushing the envelope in terms of content, but it looks stupendous. If you love McKean's art, you'll love the film, it literally is a McKean painting come to life. The teen playing the lead is excellent, as is the rest of the cast. The audience I saw it with loved it, and gave it a rapturous round of applause as soon as the credits started rolling. If there's any justice, it should do really well.

I saw this trailer with a family audience before PENGUINS, and you could feel the apathy in the air.

No trailers being shown in this area. I'm thinking most people won't know what to do with it.

We'll all have to do our own word-of-mouth on this.

the latest Landmark flyer for their E Street theatre here in DC has a set release week (it's escaping me at the moment though). Looking forward to seeing this.

Anyone have a release date on this yet?
*Edited to add
9/30/05 based on the trailer page on the site.

looking good, can't wait for DVD release (I'm not in a "usual" limited release area, dangit).

Saw it on friday.. My god, this film is a thing of beauty. I loved the look, loved the story.. simply loved it. Its images are just... wow. simply wow.

And the score?

That's the one element that I couldn't stand.

I am going Sunday night. The few people I know that saw it loved the film.

I really wanted to see it opening day then go to Neil Gaimans signing in Berkeley.
Unfortunatley I couldn't make the movie (or the signing so I went to the Corde Madera signing) so I am really looking forward to it.

The score was a bit loud and at some points over the top. I agree with you there. But the other aspects really made me forget about that.
