movie trailers

[meganbmoore]

So, a bit of boredom and some poking around youtube informs me that the Alice fandom has dubbed Alice/Hatter…Halice.

Better than Chair or Bluck, I suppose.

Speaking of Alice, the official trailer for Burton’s Alice in Wonderland is out. Johnny Depp has very scary makeup.

It looks a lot like Looking Glass Wars to me, though I don’t think I’m the first to make that comparison.

Speaking of movie trailers, the trailer to Ridley Scott’s Robin Hood is also out.

It looks like Gladiator in medieval England. Now, Gladiator is one of my favorite movies and I’m also extremely fond of Scott’s Legend and the extended version of Kingdom of Heaven, and I’m almost always up for a new Robin Hood, but I really hope we don’t get Maximus running around Sherwood Forest. It’s been interesting following this through all the conceptual versions, though.

(Hmm...my DW paid account status expired. This is an...interesting...selection of icons they left me with.)

I'm still waffling about whether or not I want to see the new Robin Hood. On the one hand, I really enjoy movies of Robin Hood. On the other hand, I get all tetchy about anything involving King John lately.

Why King John in particular?

I have a soft spot for him, and I hate the way that history has painted him as the horrible horrible villain, while Richard I was such an angel or something. I don't know, it's a weird phase I'm going through. I blame the economy.
