Produced by Tim Burton and Timur Bekmambetov (Nightwatch/Daywatch/Wanted)

I'm really looking forward to this. It's either going to be epic... or epic fail. I think it's going to be amazing.

The writer/director haven't really made anything worth mentioning, so of course they are heavily pushing the producers.

ohh... and putting either Muse or Coheed and Cambria in a trailer instantly makes a movie looks awesome and bad ass.

I know Muse isn't in this one, but they've been in a decent amount in the past couple of years and each time I was like... yup!

i've been looking forward to this for some time now. I thought they had a different preview on apple (i didn't remember the music). But after checking, it's the same. maybe they changed it, or i just don't recall correctly. Either way, it looks interesting to me.

the trailer looks like a trailer mashup, where they take a kids movie and use a different voiceover to make it sound ominous, like

didnt the mtv movie awards do this once?

do what, make a movie?

"Wanted" director Timur Bekmambetov

That alone is reason enough to avoid this movie. Wanted was fucking terrible, and there isn't really anything appealing about this trailer.

And I don't really give a fuck about Tim Burton.

Dude, wanted wasn't that bad. It was meant to be a summer action movie with no pretense about anything other than being over the top. Fucking rotten tomatoes gives it a 72%, which isn't bad for something like that.

You must not have seen it.

Holy shit, I am actually impressed at how bad it was. It was worse than The Core.

5/17/2009 7:43:40 PM

I got excited when I saw the first stills, then disappointed when I saw the trailer, then excited again when I saw the clip that I posted from AICN.

reminds me of the dreamcast marketing, 9/9/99.

I read "Nightwatch/Daywatch"

as "Nightman/Dayman"

and I half expected Greenman to follow.

i think he means the release date of the movie being 9/9/09. mtv made some big deal about their award show on like 9/9/99 or something.

also, Wanted was not that bad. it was ridiculous, but entertaining. i still love timur for nightwatch and daywatch.

^^ Can't wait for Always Sunny to start back up...

I've been wearing my Electric Dream Machine shirt a lot lately.

A little off topic, but what are some other bands with music like C&C's song in this video? I really like the tension building epic type of music...makes you want to go out and lift some weights or something

and yeah, Muse was mentioned, but I have both of them on separate Pandora radio stations, and not hearing many songs I'm a fan of
