The fingerprint's a nice touch. Very Blade Runner-snake scale.

It's shown exclusively on the luxury box seat feed for Super Bowl CXVI

Actually saying "unethical" was a bit much.

Well let's assume the future was won by Randian acolytes and 'ethics' are an amusing thing people participate in reenactment societies for, like Civil War battles and the like.

Well, the look & feel of everything seems to be good, & the cast is good enough. I'm just hoping the script is good enough to warrant any fanboy hope(mine or others).

I'm going to pretend it is just some sci-fi action movie and hope there aren't any noisy dudes sitting behind me snorting and stage whispering about some comic books or novelizations or whatever dot com theories around some detail in the backround in one frame of alien^3

Blame Lindelof.
― Johnny Fever, Wednesday, 18 April 2012 14:48 (1 year ago) Permalink
I'm enjoying the fake commercials, but mostly because thy're content-free w/r/t the movie. I have the problem that I always do with trailers in that I usually enjoy the experience more having walked in without much foreknowledge.

the latest david commercial is p awesome. the TED talk was a little eye-rolling but still fun as a poitless teaser.

I feel like i've seen enough at this point

I still wonder a bit exactly how much they ARE giving away. I have this suspicion it's far less than it seems.

I lolled at this:
"it's an invitation"
"from whom?"

maybe im a particularly suspicious soul, but this level of marketing generally bespeaks a less than awes movie.
