ONE SHINING MOMENT

Funny how far a little spin can go. Have you ever seen a preview for a movie you THOUGHT was going to be a comedy, but turned out to be gut-wrenching romantic drivel? Or a movie you expected would be a moving historical epic, but turned out to be a plotless vehicle for gratuitous bloodshed? It happens all the time. It makes you wonder sometimes if the people who build these previews have even seen the fucking movie. In fact, next time you see a commercial for an upcoming movie, mute the sound and try to make sense of the clips without the aid of the voice over. They appear to have been randomly selected in many cases. As any good advertising writer knows, the words and the music make the spot work...

This is all just the set-up for a great link my buddy in Sea-Town sent me this afternoon.

Check out this trailer for a movie you may already be familiar with...

turned out to be the most graphic movie i'd ever seen.

I thought Cold Mountain was going to more of a chick flick and Sideways was a disappointment. I'll just stick with the comedies.
;P

I SEE YOU!
