New trailers: Book of Eli, Bright Star


Why am i posting these two, they do nothing for me?! Well, this is intended to primarily be awards thinking and thus i can hardly ignore Jane Campion can I? Wish I could. As for Book Of Eli, well someone might be interested.
To be honest this looks like it was intended to be a Wesley Snipes movie and they got Denzel instead! Yet another bleak post-apocalyptic movie and none can match the majesty of the literary world created in Cormac McCarthy's The Road (i doubt even the film version of it - which i'm refusing to watch - could) so i'm kinda done with these films. That said love Gary Oldman, especiallt in "show me the money" cheesy villain mode so maybe.
Jane Campion. What more needs to be said? I've found every film she ever made completely tedious. Some people love her. You know which side of the line you stand on likely this will fit whatever preconceptions you have. Looks like another pile of tedious dreck to me!
