Thoughts on Trailers #1 (Seen during Pulse)

- I'm not a Brian de Palma superfan or anything, but Jesus Christ The Black Dahlia looks great. I'm banking on your film to help rescue this year, Brian. Don't let me down.

- Judging from this clip, Neil Labute completely missed the fact that The Wicker Man was a black comedy. Not that I'm surprised. Also, is it just me or has Nicolas Cage undergone the same Scotchgard process that Brandon Routh did prior to "Superman Returns"?

- We live in a country where the latest films by Rivette, Rohmer and Resnais get shunted directly to video and the new Tsai can't find a distributor despite, by all accounts, containing lots and lots of sex. Yet this motherfucking David DeCoteau-wannabe shitheap gets a big theatrical release. Weep, cinephiles, weep!

- I know School for Scoundrels is gonna suck. But I can't resist the Billy Bob.
