Zack & Miri Make a Porno has a new trailer. It’s pretty much a movie that Kevin Smith was born to write and Seth Rogan was made to star in.
I mean, ‘Star Whores’… SOLD.
Best comic book movie of 2009?
Update: If you’re looking for the music from the trailer, it’s a Smashing Pumpkins B-Side called The Beginning is the End is the Beginning. You can pick it up on Amazon’s MP3 store for just 89¢. I could pick out the artist but thanks to inFocus for the tip of the song name.
The trailer for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button has finally been released. I saw it in front of the new Indy a few weeks ago and my jaw was on the ground. It looks simply amazing and wonderful.
If names like David Fincher (director), Eric Roth (screenwriter), F. Scott Fitzgerald (story), and Brad Pitt (title character actor) don’t do it for you… well… you’re in need of some film lessons.
(PS: Whoever is doing Brad Pitt’s makeup is going to win an Oscar. You heard it here first.)
Update 1: Kottke is just as impressed, plus he dug up the Fitzgerald short story (now in the public domain).
Update 2: Unsatisfied with the HTML version of the story I linked to above, I created a PDF with an improved layout. Download it here (80 KB) and share it as you like.
Update 3: Apparently I wasn’t the only one with the idea to make a PDF. Jonathan McNicol has done even more work on a PDF by fixing up errors in the text and doing an even better job typesetting it on a leaflet style. He’ll be doing one chapter a day for the next 11 days. The first chapter is up now.
Check this new trailer for Be Kind Rewind by Michel Gondry starring Jack Black and Mos Def.
Sweet.
