Cool poster. I didn’t watch the trailer, as I like to go in surprised as much as possible, but I’m definitely interested in this movie. Hey, one more bright spot in the summer of my discontent!
Seriously, is this the worst summer in a long time? There’ve been some bright spots, but most of them have been in the indie and foreign films. Up was fun…and yeah, I got a laugh out of Land of the Lost, but everything else has been a disappointment if not skippable altogether.
I haven’t seen that many movies so far this year – good thing I don’t run a film blog. :D
The thing is there is very little coming out that I’m interested in, and the stuff that does intrigue me is indie, foreign and documentary films, as you point out.
Tres cool poster. And I love the trailer. I’m officially excited.
Craig, you suffer for our cines.
That there is some crazy trailer action there. Great poster too.
The fanboy response seemed to be it isn’t as good as Park’s other films, but there were a number of other positive reviews if I recall. Can’t wait.
