I was just watching that trailer over at IO9.
ION, I didn't know that Hammer Films did Pirate movies starring Christopher Lee.
Dawn: I think a date should be in a real fancy restaurant, then champagne at a night club with a floor show, then ballroom dancing. Joyce: Unfortunately, we're not dating in a movie from the thirties.

Buffista Movies 6: lies and videotape
A place to talk about movies--old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

In other words, SWEET.
In other Comic Book Movie News, I'm amusing myself by looking in old threads at how people reacted to Heath Ledger's casting as The Joker.

Heh. The Dark Knight is already the #4 movie of all time on IMDb.
Man, I hope I love this movie. I'll settle for really liking it, but, damn, I really want to love the shit out of it.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
It looks faithful.
I didn't want to hope, but...yeah. It does. I recognized those images. Wow.

HOLY SHIT!!!! That Watchmen trailer is awesome! I know from some set photos I'd seen I knew they were doing the street corner in the book so close to the comic it was scary, but this is going to a whole other level of faithfulness.
I'm curious how this kind of slavish faithfulness to Alan Moore is going to play compared to how Sin City and 300 were to Frank Miller, where the testosterone overload ruled all.
